This probably goes without saying, but to analyze why the “easy” version feels so shit. It loses information. A book transformed in this way would be a different book.

  • Narrator no longer identifies youth with vulnerability
  • The father’s statement is no longer advice. It could just be him saying “ligma”
  • The visual metaphor of physically inspecting a thought-object is lost

And they’ll try to claim that it’s considered “fair use transformation” under copyright law, the joke ass Supreme Court will hand them a win and the United States will become blanketed in datacenters as a million grifters try to set up their own unnecessary LLMs in order to get illiterate dumbasses to sign up for subscriptions they hope they forget to cancel

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
