whenever anyone I know admits to using ChatGPT this appears above my head

So very happy that C*rter H*rt's name will not be going on the Cup. Now if the MNHL could implement an abuse policy and maybe do something about the predators (not the Nashville ones) among their players, that'd be swell.

It's bizarre to me that some people watched Heated Rivalry and felt the need to pick a "side," whether it be Shane vs Ilya or Hudson vs Connor. My dude they are bonded pairs! Shane and Ilya are soulmates and H & C are soul besties. They root for and love each other. *How* can you love only one??

Watched "Code of Misconduct" tonight and I feel sick. Fuck the VGK for having Hart and Howden on their roster. Fuck the NHL for calling what happened in that hotel room disturbing and unacceptable and then letting those sick men rejoin the league anyway. Why is the world like this? 💔

The video on IG of a lady having Hudson "fuck AI, fuck it to death" Williams react to a bunch of genAI slop posters for (insulting) Heated Rivalry spinoffs got deleted. 😆 Nothing about it was a good idea so idk why they thought posting the video would go well for them.

US news stories in 2025: we're cancelling all the programs monitoring Incredibly Contagious Butthole Rot in foreign countries, what a waste of money US news stories in 2026: okay for some reason there are now cases of Incredibly Contagious Butthole Rot popping up in the USA

As always, a rich man's answer to "what jobs can AI do?" is "not mine, but yours."

Heated Rivalry won in all 16 categories it was nominated for at the Canadian Screen Awards, including Hudson as best lead performer in a drama series. 🥹 So, so proud!

Overheard some gals talking about Off-Campus at Costco today. One of them was saying she doesn't know what to do while she waits for S2 and I was so tempted to jump in and ask if she'd seen Heated Rivalry yet (while wearing an Ottawa Centaurs cap). 🙈

Now you can keep track of how many billions the AI companies are losing on AI. (Red is spending, green is revenue.) isaiprofitable.com

Radium is the hot new technology and it’s inevitable, all of you luddites refusing to put radium in your skin cream and toothpaste and water are going to be left behind

Spent maybe three minutes outside tonight because a cat was by my front door and in that short time, a mosquito found and bit my leg. The mosquitoes in Ohio are *ravenous* for me in a way Washington mosquitoes never were. 🫠

Ew. Unsubscribed from @humblebundle.com because of this BS. "Your own original AI imagery" is an oxymoron. Nothing you generate with AI is art, it's slop created by stealing actual art. It takes no skill, effort, or heart to type a prompt and make the AI spit out trash for you. 🍅🍅🍅

I just think it would be better for everyone if the people who make adhesive for maxi pads and the people who make adhesive for bookstore price stickers switched jobs

My face whenever I see someone say that if you miss Heated Rivalry, you should watch Off-Campus because they're soooo similar (they are not)

Just saw a book where the love interest guy's nickname is Candle and I simply cannot take that seriously 😐 #booksky

"You didn't finish your water? Think about all of the hungry data centers out there! That could have been used to generate an image of a goat flying a fighter jet"

almost missed it but happy 20 years of taking the hobbits to isengard youtu.be/uE-1RPDqJAY?...

There's definitely a critter, likely a raccoon, hanging out in the attic above my bedroom at night. 😬 Listen lil guy, you're probably cute and I want you to have a safe, comfy home, but... pls not here. I have enough trouble sleeping without thumps and scratchy noises above my head.

happy 9th anniversary to the day we watched Zendaya fall madly in love with Tom Holland in real-time

Still haven't recovered from the pictures/videos of HudCon at their first Met Gala but today I'm wearing jeans I bought for $5 from Costco so that's fun 😅 hashtag fashion

Letting men decide about women's health care is like letting your dog make decisions about your car because he likes to ride in it sometimes.

Some of y'all don't understand that learning a new skill or hobby takes time and you're so corrupted by short form algorithms and instant gratification that you can't fathom spending a few weeks to learn the basics and would rather ask a computer or corporation to do it for you instantly.

I absolutely love that every time a PWHL broadcast mentions Fanduel (for sponsor reasons) the entire chat boos, uses tomato emojis, and generally talks about how gambling sucks. PWHL vibes are simply immaculate. 🩵

Good news: the official Heated Rivalry merch store has finally restocked stuff! Bad... not news, just the way life is now: The stupid tariffs are still in place so there's simply no way I can justify getting a jersey or shirt 😭 (Also shipping was $6 for my November order and now it's $20, whoa)

whenever AI pops up unbidden to try to “help me” with my writing

Something we don’t address enough is how many people, especially adults, do not have a working imagination.

make sure you choose a password that contains capital letters, numbers, and special symbols so that someday the data broker who purchases your info can go "ooh good password" after your login details are inevitably leaked in a data breach you can do nothing to prevent

When you use AI to do your writing, you are telling your audience: “I deserve your attention, but you do not deserve my effort.”

Casually drowning in books that need to be read (3 ebook loans, 3 audiobook loans, 2 ARCs including *Devour Me* omg). Instead of making progress on any of that, I spent most of today's free time writing a new Heated Rivalry one-shot (despite several WIPs). 🫣 Why am I like this

Overrated: surprise pregnancy (a lot of people hate it and it's *still* overrated), second chance Underrated: sibling's best friend, leaving a small town and being happy about it #booksky

*sigh* If your Kickstarter video/image is AI, I won't back it. If your book has an AI cover, I won't read it. If you're a public supporter of AI use for creative work, I will unfollow you. I cannot stress enough how offensive I find AI use in the arts. It is outright theft, it is lazy, it is gross.

My front lawn is a weird shape on one side and I'm so bad at going in a straight (diagonal) line along the property line and my neighbors probably hate me for it 🫣 grass is the worst for so many reasons

Painted some paver stepping stone things to put in my front yard instead of plants! Just showing some love to three totally normal hockey teams. 😜 (I really hope the show logo for the Centaurs/whatever Ottawa ends up being is easier to paint than the Centaurs logo from old merch...)

I’ve watched this four times and will not be stopping anytime soon

I barely ever use Snapchat anymore but I feel like every time I do, the ads it shows me are about fertility and increasing chances of pregnancy. Guess Snapchat hasn't figured out I'm finally having a (voluntary) hysterectomy this year. 🫠

the US could have elected one of those children’s toys that makes farm animal noises when you pull a string and there’d be normal gas prices and airport wait times right now

Me: "Oh wow, someone shared a whole spreadsheet of 700 Heated Rivalry fics they recommend!" My angel husband: "Are any of yours in it?" 🥹 Answer: no 😆 but there are almost 25k HR fics and my most popular one "only" has 7.5k hits (which is still a lot!) so I wasn't expecting to find myself in there

You think you can hurt me? You can, I’m a sensitive ass bitch.

I'm so curious how the Off-Campus show will be received. Surely the execs are rubbing their hands together greedily after Heated Rivalry blew up, but... these seem like *very* different shows. They're both adaptations of hockey romance and that's kinda where the similarities end imo. #booksky

A.I. art will never happen

TIL some people who saw Heated Rivalry think Scott was being unreasonable about not wanting to be outed?? My dude, the NHL and many of its fans are *still* super homophobic. He was absolutely justified in being scared! Rachel wrote the books in part to highlight how toxic hockey culture is.

Is there a term for cuteness aggression except instead of wanting to bite or squish the cutie in question, I want to wrap them in a blanket burrito and bake cookies for them? Like... maternal instinct except I'm only a couple years older? (This post is about Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie.)

Looking out the kitchen window: "Heeey, the segment of fence that got blown over yesterday got blown back upright, haha" Checking on the other side of the backyard: "Oh, there are six chunks of fence fully flat on the ground over there. Nuts."
