I don't usually watch a ton, but I found playing games to wind down was keeping me up later than intended. So for the last few months watching paranormal videos has been my wind-down at night. It's entertaining enough, but not so much I'm tempted to keep watching.

Krampus is an old fave of mine! Thank you, wishing you the best as well!

Is that really Mothman collaborating with Fresno Nightcrawlers, or are these entities something else pretending to be beloved cryptids? Those anomalous lights may be the spirits lingering from (unrelated tragedy that's only kind of nearby where the action went down)!

Hoping the cryptids, spirits, and UFOs team up and the rescue is filmed so the talking heads can talk about how amazing the footage is and speculate about conspiracies.

2. It's rare for any creative, including writers, to be able to live solely off their creative income. Moreover, there is no correlation between the creative value of art and the income status of its creator. It's okay to have another gig to eat and pay bills and survive our capitalist hellscape.

I'm no Luddite - far from it - but the ways in which in this development has been spoken of seem blind to, or completely uninterested in, what cannot be machine read and searched for: the pounce, sweat marks, soot, or wax; the non-semantic yet semiotically rich substrate that OCR strips away.

I promise this image is 100% real and not AI.

So they really are devoid of ethics.

Same. We were doing okay with a couple of space heaters, but it was going to be miserable when it gets colder.
