Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Online illness stories (and, arguably, other online stories as well) do not simply adhere to or demonstrate the increasingly identifiable generic conventions of electronic media but also contain the potential to play with their form as particular stories and perspectives demand. Through an investigation of the My Cancer blog, hosted on National Public Radio’s Web site from 2006 to 2009, I will examine how blogging narrative negotiates the paradoxical aspects of its hybrid but generic form of storytelling. Borrowing a phrase that Arthur W. Frank uses to describe the impact of story in TheWounded Storyteller, I argue that blogs such as My Cancer forward a dynamic and ambivalent model of storytelling that encourages their readers to think differently about illness and illness communities.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
