IWSG -- Em Dash and AI

Two AI writer discussions appeared in my Facebook feed:

So I guess using an Em Dash — means I am a robot. 🤖 (In html — is how to make it appear.)

Is this related to the question? I don't use any of the stuff listed. I don't want AI to write for me, or to steal works of fellow writers. I'd like it to make chores easier, to assist with health care (assist, not take over, not be a primary), and tasks like that.

Two pictures 📸 from my birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉

A journal and purple pens!

I'm grateful I was able to celebrate with friends and family this year. And I'm thankful for the memories.

IWSG Writing RULES

One day, the English teacher started using the word predicate. But never said what that meant. That messed me up.
"What is a Predicate? The predicate of a sentence describes either what the subject is doing or the state of the subject. The predicate must always contain a verb, but it can also include objects, either direct or indirect, and different types of modifiers, such as adverbs, prepositional phrases, or objects." -Google

A gift of a book blanket and a candle on my cake. Part of my 45th birthday.

Fear My Power

When I was one day old, there was an annular eclipse.
Having just been born, my power was limited.
Link to eclipse info.
I was born August 21, 1979 at 6:53 AM EST.

To celebrate the anniversary of my birth this year, I shall again move the moon in front of the sun.
Fear my power.
If you ever want your precious daylight to be returned, I must be appeased. I, mover of the moon, require an offering of flavored toffee candies. Present this gift at the alter of my birthday presents or suffer eternal darkness. Wrath or candy!
