I've always written texts, I was never big into "poetry" in the widest sense of the word, but last year, I started to write bits and pieces here and there, on scrap paper or napkins, nothing serious, but I have the urge to share this stuff with the world...

If you could give me a like and follow on my Instagram (@_like.cat.and.dog_), that would be most awesome!! 😎🙏

[The Start

One of my worst fears is that people could see me try

and not succeed,

that someone witnesses me starting over

after a failed attempt,

the reaction to me trying something new

and it not being an immediate triumph.

Do I know that nobody is perfect?

Yes.

Do I know that nobody gets to judge me for trying?

Yes.

Do I still want perfection from second one?

Also yes.

It’s practice that makes perfect,

it’s repetition that has the desired effect,

even the most talented people need to rehearse –

they just don’t see exercise as a failure.

Yet here I am, my head stuck with worry,

hoping to someday be a success.

Perfection is repetition,

and luck,

and a little bit of lying

since the more perfect you are,

the more will people look away from your mistakes.

But anyway, I digress.

I wanted to start

something new today.

It’s on you now:

Will you judge

or will you be there and see

where this journey ends?]

You only get those two bots as a package. If you talk to Botlander, you have to make an appointment with the bot psychologist right after. The government said so, it's the law.

PSA

Just a heads up, there are bots going around on AO3 accusing people of using AI. Considering the timing, this is likely AI bros' retaliation for AO3 users calling them out for scraping their work. Examples of what you might be sent:

Screenshots from here.

If you get a comment like this, just report for spam and delete.

Edit: apparently they're also using people's usernames to try to make the spam seem more authentic, so if you get a guest comment from someone you recognise, it's likely not them.

In Galician we say

"Andas nos biosbardos"

And i think it's beautiful.

I hate when I say things like "oh I want an ipod classic but with bluetooth so I can use wireless headphones" and some peanut comes in and replies with "so a smartphone with spotify?" No. I want a 160GB+ rectangular monstrosity where I can download every version of every song I want to it and it does nothing except play music and I don't need a data connection and don't have to pay a subscription to not have ads and don't have popups suggesting terrible AI playlists all over the menus.

Gimme the clicky wheel and song titles like "My Chemical Romance- The Black Parade- Blood (Bonus Track)- secret track- album rip- high quality"

Ive said this before but swear the biggest skill to learn as an adult is how to resist high-pressure sales tactics. You do NOT have to answer questions with anything other than "Sorry I'm not interested." No matter how nice they are or no matter how many follow up questions they ask or even how agitated they get when you stand your ground. Just keep saying I'm not interested. Don't answer their questions. Don't give them an opening to try to push back on your reasons. Be a fucking brick wall of I'm not interested.

For Years my brother has been fucking with me by periodically texting me to say Jimmy Carter had finally died. Today the bit has paid off.

The response to my reaction at work was “what do you MEAN ‘for real this time’?????”

I fucking hate it here I’m crying
