Young adult. Kid lit is perhaps a little irresponsible.
Fantasy might work, but it’s a tricky book to classify. Adams also wrote the Plague Dogs, which is straight up nightmare fuel for kids. At least it was for me.
Honestly, it’s one of my all-time favourite books and I’ve never really thought of this question. I read it very young, but I had a pretty solid temperament for heavy stuff even then.
I know a bunch of people who find it quite upsetting even as adults reading it for the first time.
The is latest episode is a hoot. I’ve always appreciated the way the Dan brings it back over and over again to how AJ has turned his back on everything that made him who he was.
Listening over time has really showed me how mutable the beliefs of his ilk can be. How utterly self-serving every claim.
My man, it is not my responsibility to explain to you why an AI generated image is disappointing or why the state of AI in general leaves a bit of a bad taste. You’re on this site, so you can read.
I don’t know why you’re so invested in this obscenely pointless task you’ve set yourself of convincing me otherwise.
👍🏻 sure thing, pal. Any other insights into the way my mind works, Stranger? The fact that my response to slop provoked such a strong reaction in you is… honestly, less and less interesting now that I think about it.
I was interested too. Now I’m not. It’s like The Oatmeal says, every single time. AI image generation is a Disappointment Engine. It feels so deflating to find out something you thought was cool came out of one.
If you’re asking for yourself, I strongly suggest talking to a professional. The first few sessions can be really taxing, but it unbelievably worth it if you genuinely want to sort something out.
Trying to do it on your own is a bit like trying to do your own dentistry. It’s possible, but it’s gonna suck and you’re probably gonna fuck it up.
Stopped listening after a guest said something along the lines of “Well, I guess we’ve learned there’s really no such thing as a good South African” and he laughed and said “Right” or something to that effect.
He can take his high horse and fuck it as far as I’m concerned.
Can’t watch without an instagram account. Any alternatives anyone knows?
