not to be an attention whore, but I feel like all my failures and mistakes are etched into my skin, sinking deeper, branding me :)

y’know what i’m gonna say it. tumblr is the superior social media site. follower counts are hidden/meaningless, there’s no way to make a profit and/or become an influencer. it’s just about looking at silly little images and making silly little comments.

PJO SHOW - MY OPINION OKAY

Spoilers btw

This is slightly controversial but I think the show is missing the mark on several aspects. Firstly, they have a 'stakes' problem, as in it feels like there are no stakes. In episode 1, when Grover comes to the cabin there seems to be no real sense of emergency. In episode 4, when they're escaping Echidna and Chimera the kids talk about it being a hunt but they walk towards the monument (the refuge) when they should be running or at least speed walk (lol). The fight scenes throughout the season have been short and lackluster, in many cases the fights are over the minute they start. Tone and pacing are also lacking creating a monotonous feel throughout the episode save for some light humor scattered throughout the episodes. Also, the exposition dumps are getting old, for a hit show I just feel like they should show more than they tell but alas. In Episode 1, Luke tells Percy that Annabeth comes first always and that she's like a little sister to him but we never see the two of them interact in an affectionate/teasing/sibling manner like you're just supposed to take Luke's word about their relationship. Finally, while the actors are really talented (and in some scenes they really encapsulate the characters) some scenes feel like reading and not acting. I think the show is suffering from a monotony problem and it is making these actors feel wooden and the show lackluster. That said as someone who loves the PJO universe I have a lot of love for the show but it desperately needs some revamping.

2023 was like Neil Gaiman going "oooh you know what'll be good? sad gay bible fanfiction" and Hozier went "yeah lemme release my sad gay bible album rq" and then the economy collapsed

This is as toxic as a garden snake 🧚‍♂️

One of my toxic traits is that I honestly believe that if someone trains an AI model on you without your consent, it is totally justified if you knife them in the stomach in the public square.

Like, I'm not saying it should definitely be legal per se, but it'll be a close trial, with a lot of jury members going "well, they definitely did it, but I can't really vote guilty because it was justified".

I don't mean like "we scraped every deviantart post ever and stuffed them into a database", I mean like specifically going out to download everything you'd posted across your various social medias and stuffing that in a specific "that person" AI model.

It's like you go over to someone's house and they're like "oh I have good news, you won't need to come over again, I made something new!" and they lead you to a damp closet where there's a dripping half-formed flesh homunculus which has your face, even if warped, and it's crying out in pain from the unbearable misery of existence and they expect you to not react with horror and disgust and virtuous anger.

It's like, I'm sorry, but if you tell me you tried to build another me out of rats you stapled together and brainwashed with the collective output of my assorted social medias, I'm going to have to add "kill them" and "kill you" to my todo list, in that order. The former out of mercy and to alleviate suffering, the second out of justice and revenge.

I mean, I can be a pacifist all day, but the kind thing to do to an animal with rabies is not to let it live.
