@isaiah_bb @PepsiManAgain One of these miserable rounds of discourse was started by ppl "patiently explaining" why a wheelchair using black woman didn't DESERVE to have her groceries delivered where she could access them, and if she thought so, she was a hitler slave owner. That is not the reason.

@magnum69420 @ovichknox Books aren't collections of ideas; they're executions of ideas. It's the execution that's unique/vital. That's where the human spirit is communicated. There are 10k "humans are flawed" stories, but only 1 is your favorite. The execution is why. Prose is execution. /end

@magnum69420 @ovichknox And, ultimately, thinking a piece of art can be engaged with without ever even sensing it boggles me. Do you eat food without eating it? Do you hear a song without listening to it or feeling it thump through your skin? Why would a book be any different?

@magnum69420 @ovichknox Its summary bluntly removed ALL MENTION of the point of the story(the gay romance) instead describing them AS FRIENDS! It is literally, utterly incapable of doing even the basic tasks needed for someone to engage with a task in an alternate way! +

@magnum69420 @ovichknox Even if summary was somehow an acceptable alternate form of engagement with media(when talking about connecting with other humans), ChatGPT's summaries aren't even doing the job of summarizing properly! So yes, it IS lying. /end
