The images are AI-generated, and the text had a lot of LLM markers like emdashes and "it's not X, it's Y".

Did you create any of this yourself?

    I use AI to polish my writing because it helps me express ideas better. I’m not good at drawing, so I asked AI to make the images instead.

      It's hard to know where your work ends, and where the AI's work begins.

Every night on Binance, someone wakes up rich — and someone else liquidated. The market itself feels like performance art: a theater of greed and hope.

I wrote a short essay about “币安人生 (Binance Life)”, a meme coin that mocks its own players. It has no utility, no promise — only a name that reads like a joke about us all.

What kind of casino builds a game about its gamblers? Binance did. Is this satire, performance art, or just another mirror of capitalism?
