non-american here, what is an “alien” in this context? i imagine it doesn’t mean “extraterrestrial”

by making connections between personal experiences and seeking patterns and similarities between them.

being trans and using linux have some things in common (a lot of things have things in common with other things), for example, they’re both related to self-discovery (albeit to different levels).

I hate those who call themselves artists when they’re just commissioning a computer to make a picture for them. I also hate it when those same people deny the unethical aspects of AI generation.

Edit: to add more, I also hate the AI images themselves. They are filling up the internet with slop. This is very annoying, and the same goes for LLMs. I don’t want to get AI generated results when I didn’t search for them specifically.
