negative parallelisms everywhere in an advertorial for digital downloads: truly the era of LLM advertising

if this had had the period source material in it, it'd've been fun to see, though. pity.

Yeah. It took me a few paragraphs until I checked out, but spending flair points on unimportant stuff is still obvious. If everything is highlighted, nothing is.

There is also this weird incoherence - a long series of statements that don't seem to build to anything. It's like a story without intention or dramatic arc. That is what makes me check out - I rarely lose interest like that except when reading LLM slop.
