“Please be nice to people who use AI to write :((( just live and let live :(((((“ no. I hope chatgpt dies and you’re forced to write with your own skills lest you never update your fic again.
#it’s not that I think chatgpt and other assorted generative ai are like. the biggest evil on the planet rn#but also the amount of tangible real life harm they cause isn’t 0#anti ai#*old man voice*#back in my day we didn’t have these new fangled robots to write our slashfic for us#we wrote our fic uphill both ways. with our own skills. and it was BAD.#but that was how we got better

Hi, would it be ok with you to make little plushes of Machete and Vasco (just for myself)? I crochet, and I love them so much, I'd love to have little stuffies of them to take on adventures, smush their lil faces together, or tuck into bed, but I don't want to do so without your permission first. I know you're cool with fanart mostly, but I can see how bringing them into the physical realm could be different!
Sure, I can see how that might be fun! Send me a picture or two if you end up making them, I'd love to see.
#I've seen physical tangible fan art of them before I think that's always very neat#stuff like that takes a lot of time and skill to make#thank you for asking for my permission first I really appreciate it#just treat them nicely they are my special little guys#answered#mywillbedone

schizoid culture is not being able to have natural emotional reactions and attitude to things people say about their lives. i mean, i think it's cool you were promoted in your job, for example, but i won't experience these emotions with you, i don't know how to feel them in a first place
-

oogh. imminent film deadline art imposter syndrome crashout. ogh
#quirinahscreams#i think when it comes to being an artist i want to draw what makes me happy tell the stories i want to tell and do things for myself but#im. definitely not a good storyteller and i dont have a very strong creative vision or even. like technical skills to fall back on#im naturally a bit of an anxious person so im always just buzzing neuroses and feelings and thoughts in my head and trying to beat it into#something qualitative. and its like! i just dont think theres any substance to what i say or do and its disheartening#because im looking at everyone around me and theyre using their craft to say something sincere or express what they like eloquently#and like im barely slipping past the translating my brain salad into something conceptually tangible LOLLLL um.#i think theres nothing wrong with the quality of your art or your writing or whatever being half baked because the artist#made this conscious effort to translate what they feel and think into creation! but also even if i like baking#sometimes i am a shit baker. and holy shit that guys cake is probably better than mine. so how do I enjoy baking nevertheless? and how do I#become a better baker? i want to establish who i am better and maybe finally put names and pictures to the jumble of my mind palace and#just try. try to make a better cake even if it is still a shit cake. but i cant stop thinking about what im missing...um...i dont know.

sorry for only saying this type of shit lately but i kinda wanna drive a car straight into a brick wall at the highest speed possible
#trying to keep it together so bad because i already know the problems and solutions and whatnot but i cannot do anything#i desperately just need to do something. accomplish any task. actually several would be nice. but i cannot stand just letting life go by#while i watch other people have the things i want. or even metaphorically living my dream like. that should be me why am i settling for thi#i hate even talking about this because i feel so stupid when i know it's not even a real tangible problem and that i actually DO have real#problems to tackle and the ability to do so but i'm choosing to be upset over the stupidest things i could possibly be sad about#and i can't even be sad about it in a normal way i'm cycling through like several different reactions to smth that isn't even real#or if it is real i literally do not have tanglible evidence for it one way or another like i'm driving myself insane for no reason#i can't even get catharsis because all i'm doing is digging a deeper hole for something i never should've gone back into in the first place#because i KNOW how i am i KNOW how i react to things and i still chose to do it lmao.#and i continue to choose to go through this shit instead of actively trying to change my life because... i'm lazy? and stupid? idk#negative self-talk isn't gonna get me to do anything either so let's just say i'm feeling particularly unmotivated like usual#i hated being a teenager but i really do miss when all my problems just amounted to 'someone was mean to me on tumblr today :(' or i failed#a test in chemistry or something. like i yearn for that simplicity becasue at this point all i'm doing is ruining my own life LMAO#i'm too scared to live i'm too scared to die so i just sit here and fantasize that life could be amazing if i wait#and i'll magically get everything i've ever wanted if i just wait long enough. and i know it isn't true and i still wait for it to happen.#because honestly like. i think deep down i am just convinced i will fail at anything i do when that shouldn't be what scares me.#what scares me should be never even allowing myself to fail because i never tried to do anything at all with myself or my life#like. wake the fuck up. get off your ass and put in the effort. learn some skills. gain independence and stability and discipline and do it#just live please i'm begging you just live so i can be happy don't i deserve to be happy... why am i not letting myself be happy#i'm literally keeping myself trapped in this negative feedback loop ON PURPOSE because teehee shiny toy#and it doesn't matter if the love is real it doesn't matter how i feel like i'm just using it as a distraction i can't say it's motivation#because it's barely motivated me at all. i have to start being realistic. 25 & just realizing you actually have to participate in your life#anyways. i've cried i've agonized i've pictured killing myself in 30 different ways. i think the only way i'm gonna feel better is#to just actually try this time without giving up. wish me luck

Hunter is a sour patch kid. No further explanation.
first he's sour.... then he's sweet......
#fr fr all you have to do is manipulate him the right way#(or be genuinely nice but boy will it take him some time to accept that)#vic works because he praises skills hunter tangibly has (and accepts that he has)#and clearly wants things from him. it's a transaction relationship; as longas hunter provides/obeys/measures up he can be part of it#anon#t$$ hunter

what happened to the art of comedic timing. why are so many 'funny' tiktok vids always like 10 seconds too long and it kills what could have been a good joke. brevity is the soul of wit. your skit does not need to tell the joke, THEN explain the joke, THEN agonisingly pan from poorly timed reaction to poorly timed reaction, THEN try and eek another punchline in which also need more reaction shots. bring back the vine format, make these online clowns funny again
#not saying everyone on vine was Hilarious i just believe learning how to say everything you need to say in 6 seconds is an invaluable skill#its sorta like how improv isn't necessarily funny but having an improv background can make a tangible difference for a comedian

thinking about dazai and fighting now .. hhrrggfff he's so lazy and that translates into a bored effortlessness when engaging with one or multiple enemies. he's quick and agile, flexible though you wouldn't think it with the fact he rarely likes to engage, but he's also incredibly skilled at hitting weak - points, breaking bones and using opponents as shields against others with an ease that pisses people off :p
#i love my man#born to play the damsel forced to be good in hand to hand combat#he's a mostly defensive fighter but that's what i mean by finding weak - points. people engage and strike first and he throws#it right back at them by twisting their arms at angles they should not be twisted to#UGGHHH DAZAIIIIII#size dependent though tbh like. if his opponent is bigger and stronger than he is#he's in trouble ... the same with long range abilities though when they hit him they're rendered null if they're tangible they ARE going to#hit him if the thing that does the touching ISNT part of the ability but thrown/moved by it#now im thinking about him and knives ... insanely skilled with them and hes got the kinda hands that look good when playing with them#between his fingers ... uhuh

And the Lamb broke the fifth seal, and I saw under the altar the souls of the Martyrs, slain because of the Word of God…
#gamingedit#videogameedit#farcryedit#fc5edit#gameedit#far cry 5#far cry#**#mine: *edit#when i was working on this i realized the middle graphic looks out of place....but i started with it and refuse to not use it for anything#this actually was going to be based around family tree (intro) by ethel cain but i could not put what i envisioned in my head into#a tangible format.#i do eventually plan to work on a set of graphics centered around songs from preacher's daughter tho...one day when i have the skills lol#mine: *fcedit

"Ai makes art accessible! Ai makes writing accessible!"
It's always been accessible. You've just been too lazy to try and set your ideas to paper. Commission artists. Learn. Be bad at what you do, because it's 1000x better than something that steals our interests and jobs and careers will ever make !!!!!
#if you dont have the skills to make your idea tangible#LEARN!!!#if you dont wanna#COMMISION ARTISTS!!!#stop disguising what steals our jobs and joys behind a veil of fake accessibility#youre just fucking lazy#sorry feelin like a HATER rn

I tried to find the source for this a while ago but couldn't find anything more specific than a few [anime girl phone background !!] websites with no artists listed </3 curious if you could get farther with it!!
Ok, let's see...
楽器と女の子(2013) — 田口囁一
Woah, it's a redraw of an older work, so cool!
#answer#i always like when artists show their improvement through redraws#every skill grows with practice but with art the contrast is so tangible

I need people to stop thinking of robots and AI in their current states of advancement as conscious beings. It's a weird amount of anthropomorphization that really misses the mark on what the concerns surrounding these things should be. When you start talking about AI and robots as anything but tools, you begin to view robots and AI themselves as the problem instead of the people in charge of them and what they're being used for. It also makes you sound like a luddite who thinks the voice in their smartphone is Literally The Devil.
#your concerns first and foremost should be tangible things like workers rights. not some wishy washy Pure Human Spirit shit#like can we focus on things that can actually be fixed instead of your own personal beef with Soulless Robots(tm)#also it leads to an extremely annoying amount of scaremongering#'omg guys look 😱😱😱 this ai said it wants to take over the world 😱😱😱' it is a generative text model.#you literally told it to say that. chatgpt is not planning world domination just because you asked it to tell you abt world domination.#it is physically incapable of thinking in the way that we think. it does not have emotions either.#i know ppl are allergic to nuance abt ai on here but yknow. shouting into the void#if ur boss is trying to replace you with ai perhaps the problem is with ur boss and not with ai#because if ai didn't exist and some cheaper easier alternative to hiring employees at a full wage & benefits popped up--#--ur boss would be all over that alternative too. bc it is literally just smth to hold over ur heads to stop u from asking for better pay#or better conditions/benefits/hours/etc.#idk im rambling but my point is that ur boss will always find a boogeyman to scare you into settling for less. its not new or unique to ai#ergo... perhaps ai itself is not the issue here and we should focus less energy at ai itself and more energy at the people wielding it--#--against workers.#please please pleaseeeeeee use ur critical thinking skills im beggingggggggggg dont be stupid about this#talking

Really strange to reach a point in my life where my time is worth a good amount of money but having no real on-paper ways to show my talents
#like a fair byproduct of how ive gone about things trade/skill wise for the past 20 years yet still its like . i think im ready Ready ready#to just kick out and act on my skills for good. perhaps i really might be holding myself back in that regard now and just need to#commit to these things i know i want to do and projects I want to complete. it feels. easy but steady. it feels like what i need to be#doing with my time but also feels challenging still and gratifying. im calculated but still able to approach it with passion and whimsy#all things i feel i may have took for granted before really. i think im ready ready ready READY ready#but being able to prove what I can do TO OTHERS is a matter of putting myself out there bc i dont really have like. a degree or w/e#or worked for some xyz company acting on those skills but i know enough to manage myself in these fields and skills and trades which#is arguably the most important part now#that being said: ladies dykes women i am producing music again i am sound designing again i am writing more and more i am#READY ready and in a way still restraining myself to say: Im excited to show you all when I have something tangible and complete#professionally so and to my highest creative degrees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not watching the Emmy's I can't do it, but they should introduce a new honorary secret category award to present RCG with for Always Sunny as a surprise because 1. it's been almost 20 years, give them a break 😭, 2. does longest running live action sitcom, greatest will-they-won't-they in tv history mean nothing to anyone?? and 3. because I said so
#iasip#anmmbposts#text#i've never actually watched the emmys i've watched the oscars a couple times and they were bad#but i may watch oscars one more time if glenn's there for blackberry#but anyway i think sunny is a well constructed show that's genuinely good at what it does#and both their technical and acting skills are severely underrated as is the comedy genre as a whole#but like i've seen prestige tv with the most abominable acting imaginable#and side by side with the deliveries in sunny you can tangibly feel the difference in skill i'm im awe at them constantly#and i'm not being facetious or wearing rose tinted glasses here#but on the other hand like i understand why they're a hard show to parse in that manner#and also i don't particularly care about award shows but at the same time i want people to respect the work
