women’s bodies weren’t “made” to do anything, nature didn’t “intend” anything, no human action is “unnatural” and there is no inherent “purpose” to a human life

#the truest repairman posts #Some of you guys are really just taking the word evolution or “nature” and using it to mean god #If you have to outlaw things to make people stop doing them I’m pretty sure those were the natural things in the first place 🙁

big fan of stories that, while undoubtedly being about the power of friendship, acknowledge that the power of incredible violence is just as important

the love was there. the love changed everything. the crowbar helped also

now that trump has tiktok, twitter, facebook and insta in his pocket, get ready for a massive wave of internet censorship. one of trump's greatest weapons has always been misinformation; it's going to become harder and harder to spread facts and criticism going forward. posts that aren't made invisible will be magically ignored by the algorithm. dissidents will have their accounts deleted and voices erased.

this is a suppression tactic. this is another stage of fascism.

#us politics #tiktok #tiktok ban #not a shitpost #we will look back through the lens of history on how very first thing he did when returning to power #was to seize control of the public's ability to communicate and organize #and it won't be 'lol tiktok'. it won't be funny. it won't be funny at all

what if your doppelgänger wasn’t evil it was just a person. what if your doppelgänger wasn’t trying to replace you it was just trying to learn to be a person and you were the best model it had. what if your doppelgänger looked at you with your eyes and said with your voice that it just wanted to be loved. what then.

#aelan speaks #fornax cain #fun fact i used to think imposter syndrome was more literal #not so much “i don’t deserve this good thing and i’ve somehow tricked people into thinking i do”#but more like “i am straight up not a person and everyone knows it”#“and i am TRYING to be a person but i can’t get it right and they all KNOW and i should not be here but i don’t know where else to go”#anyway i was a normal child

“…to me” is one of the most powerful disclaimers we have on here… is this character analysis accurate? debatable. but it’s real… to me.

#honestly i have never read character analysis that i felt was 100% accurate #and it shouldn’t be #it’s a transformative creative work in and of itself based on the viewer’s subjective experience with the work #To Me is especially useful for less serious things #like. this random song applies to this extremely specific and emotionally fraught situation… To Me 😌😌#you know how it is

slightly furious reminder that fish do in fact feel pain and do in fact experience fear and distress when in pain since people seem to love spreading the myth that fish don't feel pain. what is it with people assuming a creature is incapable of feeling pain or emotion just because it doesn't have complex facial muscles. come on gang

#animal cruelty #<- for filtering #IT PISSES ME OFF #'oh it's fine to kill eels very slowly for extra flavour. they don't feel pain so it's not cruel at all' did you do. any fucking research #if you REALLY need sources for the idea that non-mammals can feel pain and fear (you know. two things extremely vital for survival?)#then I can send some links in the comments. but fucking christ we shouldn't need an article to tell us this shit #fish have pain receptors fish respond negatively to pain. they'll hide or struggle. fish who escaped being hooked show trauma-like response #including shallow breathing. isolation. and decreased appetite. fish are so fucking complex but people see them gasping #with their gaping mouths and rolling eyes and think ah. the lived experience of this creature is equivalent to that of an earthworm

As gen-AI becomes more normalized (Chappell Roan encouraging it, grifters on the rise, young artists using it), I wanna express how I will never turn to it because it fundamentally bores me to my core. There is no reason for me to want to use gen-AI because I will never want to give up my autonomy in creating art. I never want to become reliant on an inhuman object for expression, least of all if that object is created and controlled by tech companies. I draw not because I want a drawing but because I love the process of drawing. So even in a future where everyone’s accepted it, I’m never gonna sway on this.

#personal #im still fighting it but im also a realist so I’ve accepted that this will be our future #rant #gen ai is fucking boring #I hope this doesn’t make me sound like a ‘going against the crowd. not like the rest of society’ type (it would be depressing if it did)#but yeah even in a world where it’s considered totally fine to use ai to make art I’ll still be using my bare hands #because I like it and nobody can take that from me #if you’re a young artist interested in or already using ai. just know that the thing you rely on to make art can be taken away at any point #all of it. and there’s nothing you can do about it if they decide to. it doesn’t belong to you

one time I used the ben affleck smoking reaction image in the family group chat and my mom replied with the funniest possible response which was: "mommy doesn't know who the guy is???" and that phrase has not left my brain since. I'll see blorbos on my dash that I don't recognize and I'll be like well it seems mommy doesn't know who the guy is.

#the funny thing is she DOES know who ben affleck is #mom you're the one who made me watch good will hunting!!!#ah well. mommy doesn't know who the guy is #I'm gonna start saying that as if it's a popular meme phrase that everyone knows. maybe i can gaslight pple into using it #....you know what. please reblog this actually. it's what mommy deserves

I hate how people will look at popular indie artists who had one or two songs go viral on TikTok and start making fun of anybody who listens to them. "Oh you listen to Lemon Demon, Will Wood, Jack Stauber, Glass Animals, and Mother Mother? Tsk, don't you know that is stupid TikTok neurodivergent white transmasc preteen music? It's so mid and bad you should listen to real music–" you are a pit of misery

#sp-rambles #Edit: Head in hands and groaning why did this post become about cringe culture and “not caring about what other people think”#Like yes of course cringe culture is dead yada yada but don't you guys think it's a little off how people use ableist and queerphobic #rhetoric still to describe things they do not like? Isn't that a bit more concerning?

i’m going to hold your hands when i say this and i am only going to be kind about it once: ai does not belong in fandom spaces, ever. not in writing, not in art, not in video, not at all. it does not matter how bad you want to see your favourite characters kiss, or how much you need a bit of help finishing a chapter, or whatever.

make friends with artists. commission somebody. learn to draw yourself. ask for a beta read. try a writing partnership. fandom spaces are communities, so engage with them! it is about the journey and the fact that we all love something enough to create and build together about that thing.

spending 30 seconds to kill a tree and get an AI to push out some soulless empty piece of “content” is antithetical to the entire point of being engaged with fandom, and if you’ve taken to doing this you should really reconsider if you belong in these spaces with the rest of us.

#not even TOUCHING on the moral and ethical implications of using AI on real people’s likenesses #to portray them doing or saying things they very much have not done #anyway next time i’m going to start cyberbullying #ai #fandom
