The other side of Don't Invent the Torment Nexus is the popular YA novel Don't Sexualize the Literal Teenager, and so far it has proved a far bigger challenge than the Torment Nexus because it includes both the people who want to invent the Torment Nexus and those who are rightfully against it.

I had never heard of elf on the shelf until one fateful December about 9 years ago.
And now I can't stop hearing about it.
I will die, cursed to hear about elf on the shelf every December forever more.

I was lucky enough to meet @travisbaldree.bsky.social courtesy of @wildgeesebookshop.bsky.social at the Historic Artcraft Theater in Franklin, IN last night! Travis is a sweet man, and I'm looking forward to more of his work!

Fascinating that there aren't a bunch of AI art classes out there to teach how to use this new technique. Almost like it isn't really art at all, or a technique.

You ever feel like you're bad at everything?
Even just most things?
Yeah, that's because your brain simply cannot handle your pure awesomeness.

Are you really mad at transgender people or are you just mad that you discovered gender means a lot less than you want it to and once people realized that you couldn't use it to bully them anymore?

Duolingo, you've had me in your evil clutches for almost two years. Do not give me reasons to stop, it's so tempting. I know how to ask how many black hamsters there are, please do not gaslight me about it.
