I have noticed that every time I say, "That would be an actual useful thing that AI could do," it's about something I don't want to do in the first place, and moreover, don't think I should have to.

Mastodon, if you have to do starter packs, *please think about consent* for people being added to starter packs. The bluesky starter packs may be great for new accounts trying to find their people, but it has not necessarily been fun for people who've been added to starter packs without their knowledge. I feel like a couple thousand people looking for a coffee shop have suddenly turned up in my living room.

I have a theory about glue work (defined in Tanya Reilly's post, which I have linked), and it is that one reason why some of us do it relentlessly, even when we know it hurts us, is precisely because it's work that isn't legible to the organization at large, so no one can tell us how to do it or expect a task-level breakdown of it.
