Do You Want to be Stupid? Stop using ChatGPT to think your thoughts for you.

I have some THOUGHTS on writers trying to defend their use of ChatGPT and why it doesn't work that way:

"Chicago Pope" is like a 1994 SNL sketch. Airs at 12:20am, the only gag is that Chris Farley has a mustache and is doing a big accent. David Spade and the guest host (Joe Mantegna) keep breaking during it.

perfect tip from @lauraolin.bsky.social: "I saw someone share that you can simply cut off the top of a bag of chips you’re well on the way to finishing so that your hand has less bag to travel through to access the last of the chips...we may live in hell but at least there’s chips, and chip tips?"

This was easily my favorite ARC I got to read this year. @caseyjohnston.bsky.social combines her personal story with the history of weightlifting, science writing, research, and so much more. I started strength training again after reading it, I was so inspired!

My piece for 100 Days of Creative Resistance from @briangresko.bsky.social and @writingco-lab.bsky.social is up today: "Joking About the Impossible."

100 Days of Creative Resistance graphic featuring a quote from Caitlin Kunkel which reads “Joke about the impossible with your communities, folks who have the context to get it, the ones in the same shit as you. Joke with your friends, your people, those you want to make laugh when they’re defeated and afraid. Draw those you love closer to you with your impossible jokes
