Kinktober Day 13: Knife Play//Size Difference

ok so what if i made stede a giant carnivorous plant just so he could fuck izzy in new and interesting ways
#ofmdnsfw #stizzy (and technically #steddyhands)

Stede is a giant plant like Audrey II from Little Shop of Horrors. Izzy is on the floor on his side with his arms pinned above his head by Stede’s vines and his legs spread, halfway in Stede’s mouth. Stede’s tongue is fucking him. In the background, Ed is watching with wide eyes.

Then fuck off some more. Keep fucking off until you get back here. Then fuck off again.’

Hey look, Israel broke the cease-fire, twice, in two different ways, within 24 hours - again.

NEW: Israel informed the UN it will permit only 300 aid trucks into Gaza daily, not the 600 mandated by the ceasefire it just signed.

Notice the difference?

Also Israel has killed dozens of Palestinians since this “ceasefire” began. Including a beloved journalist named Saleh Aljafarawi who was only 28 years old.

He spent this genocide chronicling life in Gaza. And they murdered him while claiming peace.

You can just not use gen AI. Just don't. You've lived your entire life without it, it is in fact incredibly easy to keep not using it.

Everyone saying "make weird art!" you better fucking mean it. There better not be an unspoken "but not too weird" tacked on at the end.

GenAI truly was the worst technology to come along at this moment.

An energy and water guzzler when we most urgently need to take climate action.

A disinformation machine as our journalism fails.

A bias machine as fascism takes root.

A job killer in a cost of living crisis.

The "cognitive decline and brain damage from repeat COVID infections" and "easy to use robot that makes slop and melts your critical thinking skills" is a hell of a combo in a post-fact media ecosystem

When people ask me what I think about using AI in writing I’m going to send them this screenshot

A screenshot of a post that reads David Simon, creator of *The Wire*, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro, NPR

And then a screenshot of a conversation that goes like this:

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.
