i saw my life branching out before me like the linktree in her bio. from the tip of every branch, a future online persona beckoned and winked: substack essayist, graphic designer, tiktok creator, podcaster, cult favorite with a patreon

imagining a scenario where we are living after the collapse of trillion-dollar ai bubbles, and what remains are the abandoned and now feral little genAI machines roaming the open web, ghostly little things spurting out bullshit like so many isolated yet pervasive oil spills

To paraphrase another post, the zeitgeist currently tells us that writers, academics and serious engineers need to give up and get a real job like "productivity youtuber", "vibe coder" or "person who mostly exists to absorb humilitation"

I hope the life will force you to get a real job, preferably soon.

the original "charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent" was "gallantry, politeness, charm, and wit" (Woolf, 1928)

The word for a person or production company's overall output is "body of work" or if you need something succinct, "oeuvre".

Seeing "the Ari Aster Universe" or the "Studio Ghibli Universe" makes me want to spontaneously combust.
