AI copy editing isn't quite ready for the field. Yet.

Honestly, my nanny thought she was apprenticing me to a pi-LOT. Stupid woman, but a great rack.

“...and as he gazed down into the beckoning maw, there he saw a horror unlike those previously known to the civilized world. At least he thought it was “down”.

My error on the “authoritarian” flub.

I wish you people would make up your mind: is Trump a totalitarian or a is he too hands-off?

A lot of people would have said “fun”, but I can understand your confusion.
