I was using em dashes before AI made them uncool, no fuckass thieving robot is gonna make me change my typing.

The AI uses em dashes because people used em dashes.

I was providing advice to one of my bosses on how to scan cover letters for AI, and I outed em dashes. It pained me because I love them, but enough ppl don't know how to use them properly thats it's actually a reasonable flag 🙃
