I. am. FURIOUS. (stay with me)
I finally installed the /humanizer skill this week (don't judge).
Two drafts in, it was sanding down my writing style, my voice, all of it to a nub. My "furthermores," my "on the other hands," my 3-beat phrasings.
Dude. That's a rhetorical device. Plus, Caesar did it first. Ever heard of "veni, vidi, vici"?
Let's be honest, though. This isn't really about words I shouldn't use. It's about not being allowed to use em dashes anymore.
Generalized AI has censored me.
So I'm making my stand, here, today: we're taking back the em dash — who's with me?
P.S. Yeah, I took it too far, I made posters. With AI.
