I'll start things off: this week I've been getting into the Britpop album by AG Cook (executive producer for Charli XCX), amazing production and synthy goodness all-round, and I'm particularly enjoying Lucifer open.spotify.com/track/56xB3E...

How long did it take for things to click for you?

I think there's something about the focus on ranged gameplay, awkward dashing, more complicated move-sets and item bloat that's really throwing me off

Last thing I expected from AI was to make wattpad omegaverse fanfiction mainstream

Terrible things are popping up in my YouTube suggestions nowadays

AI-generated video with a thumbnail showing a girl with chains around her, and a knight approaching her. The title says "No One Wanted the Rejected Omega Girl at the Auction"

Yeah I think the difference now is having it beamed onto every social feed I have, feels harder to avoid than ever

Me: I don't care much for Taylor Swift, that's fine I'll just ignore the album release

The next day:
>Waking up to someone playing all of TLOAS outside my window
>Every social media feed covered in Swift news
>YouTube trying to make me watch each video release
>Every marketing brand hopping on it

Actually Romantic is such a sad response to Charli's song talking about her own insecurities around Swift and how the industry pits women against each other. Way to prove the point
