"What'd really round off my daily aneurysm is some cartchy tuns and a sweet teat after some catgacating. That's if I can make it through pasadise before another stroke."
Jokes aside, the worst thing about this whole mess is what a shitshow it'd have been for the kids. There's nobody I've more contempt and loathing for than someone who fucks with kids or animals, and at the very least the bastards responsible for this have refunded all the tickets and aren't doing any more events 'in the likely future.' God, let this nonsensical bullshit be what people associate AI-generated scriptwriting and events with from now on.
Y'know, I've seen posts go around, both here and elsewhere about the whole literacy crisis we have going on and I have to wonder, with how many parents must've fallen for this who are at least around our age, how much of that is actually new and how much of that is just way too many people being absolute garbage at reading to begin with in a way that was less apparent then than it is now.
Because I can't imagine anyone looking at this, reading the text below (catgacating live perfor൬ances!), actually seeing what it says and thinking this doesn't look at least a little fishy.
Think about it. You're a tired neurotypical parent looking for something to entertain your kids. You see the big flashy image and your brain corrects Cartchy Tuns to Catchy Tunes and you don't think twice about it, decide it would be a nice way to get out of the house.
I think the vast majority of people are not online enough to know there's AI slop being slung at every corner of society. Very few people I grew up with still use social media anymore. Maybe two or three Instagram and Facebook holdouts each. Twitter usage, especially in the past year, has essentially vanished among my non-furry non-SA friends.
