@i-am-insane The biggest “inconvenience” that I hand-wave away is tiny voices being too faint and squeaky and giant voices being too loud and rumbly. I need my characters to be able to converse. Frequently and easily.

RE: Lesser Known Inconveniences of Being Giant/Tiny
@blehb Yup, I was particularly cruel in The Prof when one the SWs lost her glasses when she was captured.
I don’t think I’ve ever read a Size story that dealt with menstruating tinies.
Tinies never seem to have the right clothes for the occasion, and they have to wash everything by hand.
There are stairs everywhere.
I listed a bunch of inconveniences for giants here.

RE: Out of their Element
@littlest-lily Aiden and Evie have been in a good place for a while now, but nonetheless I’m fortified by his confidence in his ability to read her mood and calibrate the precise degree of teasing she can tolerate.

@SmolChlo Biggos are easy to sneak up on because they’re always glued to their phones.

RE: Lectured by AI about the morality of size difference
@HHunter1 There’s nothing intelligent about these algorithms. They’re overgrown autocomplete.

@foreverlurk Yeah, unless OpenAI can provide a more explicit policy that you violated, you have an argument for a refund.

@foreverlurk Which of these programs charge a fee to use?

RE: Lectured by AI about the morality of size difference
@foreverlurk And they’ve apparently (and conveniently for them) decided to prohibit all size differential without further review. That’s fucked up.

RE: Lectured by AI about the morality of size difference
@foreverlurk What I find so vexing about this is that you have no reason not to believe that either the original email or the response to your protest was, itself, generated by ChatGPT. You have no way of knowing whether this policy or its specific interpretation in your case was actually written or even approved by a human.
Despite the fact that your prompts and results are quite benign (or, as we say in the size smut biz, “Gentle”), I suspect that DALL-E (and other image generators) have been flooded with prompts that are not so benign, and someone (a human?) has determined that the power disparity in size differential is, ipso facto, always “problematic.” Coming from someone experienced in Size Fantasy, that might be a defensible position, but here it’s obviously just a convenient bright line for making corporate policy decisions.

RE: Out of their Element
@littlest-lily If I am ever asked to describe the attraction of being a microphile, I’d put “receiving a tiny lover’s trust” right at the top.
