"STOP USING AI!! USE REAL PHOTOS!!" Screamed from a smartphone. On the internet. In 2026. BRO. Today I'm going to explain something very, very slowly, because apparently a few people in my replies haven't quite finished evolving. WHOSE FUCKING PHOTOS? Yours? Mine? Some photographer's work I'm supposed to grab off Google because your delicate little eyeballs can't handle AI? I travel between Japan and America, writing stories from my own experiences, books, and research. AI helps polish my writing and create the illustrations. Almost every picture is AI. That's it. I'm entertaining people, not laundering money for the fucking Colombian cartel. When your posts regularly hit a MILLION impressions, copyright complaints arrive faster than mosquitoes at a naked barbecue. Takedowns. Lawsuit threats. You can praise a restaurant so much the owner wants to name his firstborn after you, and still get a legal complaint over the photograph. But your brilliant philosophy is: If I CREATE an image, I'm a fraud. If I STEAL an image, I'm authentic. HOLY SHIT. Did your frontal lobe come out with the placenta and get thrown in the medical waste bin? And here's my favorite part. You're holding a $1,000 smartphone, surrounded by algorithms and AI, screaming that modern technology is unnatural. MY BROTHER IN CHRIST, YOU'RE A CAVE PAINTING WITH A DATA PLAN. Seriously, if civilization hurts your feelings that much, put down the phone. Drink from a well. Ride a donkey. Send your complaints by carrier pigeon. No Wi-Fi. No AI. No GPS. Just you, a muddy cave, and a stick you can use to scratch "AI BAD" into the dirt while waiting for your frontal lobe to finish growing. Hungry? Chew a tree. Lonely? Sniff a tree. Angry? Bang your head against a tree. Congratulations, you've invented the world's first completely organic, carbon-neutral customer support system. When night falls, get down on all fours and howl at the moon until another genius answers. OOH OOH! AH AH! 🐒 And if your pigeon returns with a copyright complaint, don't shoot the messenger. That fucking bird already understands intellectual property law better than you. Now, to the normal people reading this, I love you guys. I fact-check my stories, I make mistakes, and I genuinely appreciate the corrections, memories, and personal experiences you share. I've learned a tremendous amount from you. I'm not making deepfakes to destroy lives or scamming anyone. I'm writing stories and trying to make people smile. But this is X, not a doctoral dissertation defense at Harvard. I'm posting a picture of a dog, not applying for FDA approval to transplant its fucking kidneys. If you've got facts, bring them. I'll listen. If all you've got is "AI BAD! ME ANGRY!" while drooling onto your iPhone, please understand that I don't operate a free kindergarten for adults who somehow missed 40,000 years of human civilization. Follower? Blocked. Big account? Blocked. A million followers? Congratulations, you're the most influential caveman since someone discovered fire. Still blocked. I don't care how famous you are. A verified checkmark isn't proof that your brain has passed a safety inspection. Bless your little prehistoric heart. Now take your smartphone, trade it for a rock, climb back into your cave, and write me a letter when you've discovered the alphabet. And take your pigeon with you. The last thing I need is that bird shitting in my replies while its owner explains the dangers of artificial intelligence. OOH OOH. BLOCKED. 🐒
