Unslop

A checklist for stripping AI fingerprints from text. It catches the usual suspects: significance inflation, em dash addiction, "delve" and "landscape" and "testament," plus structural tells like inline-header lists and Title Case Everything. The second half matters more than the first. Removing clichés leaves you with bland, correct prose that still sounds like a bot. The fix is adding opinion, varying sentence rhythm, and saying concrete things instead of wrapping simple points in abstract framing. Works as both a post-draft editing pass and a way to train yourself out of these patterns if you're using LLMs to draft. Honestly, if you write with AI assistance at all, you need this running by default.
