  • I'd love for this instance to do away with up/down votes. But so many here like to use it as weapon, I don't see that changing.

    • I mean you attack and troll people with words, how is them doing the same with votes any different? Seems a bit hypocritical.

      • What words do you have that I was trolling and attacking people?

          • Hey! You inspired me, so thank you!

            The Man Who Hunted Sea Lions on Lemmy: https://lemmy.world/post/21037978

            • You need help. These are not the actions of a mentally stable and healthy person.

              • Help? Oh, you’re right—I need help crafting even more diabolical plots and outrageous stories!

                Friend, I really thought you’d be more flattered, considering you introduced me to the term “sealioning.”

                I had the Tales for the Cryptic Lemmy community ready for a while but couldn’t decide on the perfect story to kick things off.

                Then you, with your tireless dedication to associating me with that term, sparked some real inspiration! I’ve taken your passion and turned it into something... well, either brilliant or a complete disaster, depending on how much some people despise it. I mean, let’s be honest—my brain, my writing. Being this prolific, oy!

                Can you even imagine the level of crap I’ll be churning out now? I’ve already posted three stories to that writing community in one day! And there’s plenty more where that came from!

                But hey, all in good fun, right? So, thank you! Your relentless efforts—sending that cartoon to me over and over, throwing accusations—finally got through to my tiny, uneducated brain.

                I think, and I know you'll correct me if I'm wrong, but I think we're kinda getting close to being friends now. Mutual admiration, at least. Right?

                Thanks! :)

                • So, is the text AI created just like the artwork? Seems a socialist would be less interested in tools that steal the work of hardworking men and women.

                  • I wish I could blame AI for the horrible writing, but nope, the whole craptacular spectacle is 100% me. Been doing the writing thing for over 20 years now. And check this out, guess about my former career. I was in a marketing PR department of all things! Can you believe that? Me, in PR! Oh man, the laughs.

                    20 years spent writing and designing materials for a vast healthcare corporate insurance machine, helping them squeeze more money out of us plebs. And now? Here I am, using those same skills to churn out stories that somehow manage to offend an entirely new crowd. Gotta love the irony!

                    OR I’m actually a lil anonymous bot, humming away on a tiny server in Mother Russia, zipping ions back and forth to keep a whole crew of young Russian men and women off the front lines. All while spitting out endless streams of propaganda to make sure Trump wins. And posting lil bizarre stories that no one will read. I mean, we all know which theory sounds cooler, right?!

                    • So you, an avowed socialist, are still fine with the wage theft of using AI trained on the work of real artists without compensation for your "artwork" though, right?

                      Hell, not paying the people whose work benefited you is really much more a Trump move rather than socialism.

                      And seriously, talk to a mental healthcare professional. This behavior is not supporting your mental stability or contributing towards your long term happiness.

                      • So you, an avowed socialist, are still fine with the wage theft of using AI trained on the work of real artists without compensation for your “artwork” though, right?

                        Friend, like I said, I spent 20 years in a mktg/PR dept as a designer and writer. So no, it’s not wage theft, because I wouldn’t hire anyone else to do it—I’d do it myself anyway. But is it wage theft for others to use? Oh, absolutely! But meh, us being on this forum is chipping away at the publishing industry. How many people read newspapers anymore? You reading the news online? That’s taking jobs from printers and their entire industry.

                        And, look there, I see you’re still stuck on thinking I want Trump to win! That’s soooo cute. But, come on now, Trump winning? Not a chance. Not even close. You realize that, right?

                        Harris will win by a landslide, so why so glum?

                        I'm telling ya, you care for me! Asking me to seek mental help. You're looking out for me. We're almost friends. I can feel it. We're close.

                        But I gotta be honest with you: I am experiencing long-term happiness right now. I love my life. Thank you for caring, though! By the way, how have you gone this many comments without bringing up sealioning yet?!

                        Come on, at least the cartoon post. Thanks, friend! :)

          Come on man, you said them, you know. This whole act is just reinforcing how insufferable you are. My whole interaction with you was you just being annoying and cringe. Then you're like "why are people upset with me", because I only interacted with you once and it was enough to know the kind of person you are.
