Your AI illustrations are deeply unsettling, in a manner more remarkable than the usual AI grumpiness.

Yeah I tried to make them all seem the same

*RESTACK & SWEAT:

This is quite a list, and you are speaking the truth here.

(I begin to smell my armpit to see how "basic" I am...I look...I'm quirky enough to say I'm fine. Totally fine).

Alright so far I'm a philosopher troll assassin.

That actually sounds pretty badass. I wonder if the DM will let me spit my exp between classes.

You grazed me with a couple in the previous posts, but I seem to be safe on this one.

I'm scared that when you distill my essence perfectly it will be like hearing my true name and I'll turn to dust immediately.

Oh no - you got me. Number 10. Is that not poetry? 🙄😆🤷‍♀️

Your parody game is *strong*. Loved all three parts. And I feel I have survived all three rounds but I’m not going to tell you how to get me.

My free Friday content is the only stuff people actually read and that is all about penises and karma and bad haircuts and shitty opera options so I dispute this characterisation but thanks for checking me out!

I'd also say it's more vaping than cigars, that little electronic sound and quiet inhale is the new "dog barking in the garden" incidental background noise of choice.

I’m surprised not to see the “mom” category on here that writes about homeschooling and her children. Not me but it’s what I get fed lol

I guess I fall under art, so you got me this time. I've still got reviews left though, lol

Nice redheads! Enough to make me read the post.

Not in this lot...checking number 2 now...wait, is that a category too...numbnuts who read substacks back to front, finish to start?

Expand full comment

I need a new Substack to be more mainstream. If I can fit growth using AI and crypto while hating other social media, I might be on to something!

Expand full comment

Sounds like a growth hack!

Thalia, these are hilarious! In my mind, I found myself wickedly assigning certain Substackers, who will remain unnamed, to the categories. The best, and I really did laugh out loud, was 'the torturing poet'. That and the carrot top cooking boys. I think I dodged this list, but I think the main reason for that is I'm so incredibly, remarkably...unremarkable. Now if you had an inwardly-bitter-Close but no Cigar grouping, I would have not survived the round. - Jim
