a part of being proactive about how you communicate with all types of people is having the ability to realize when the person or people across from you don’t understand what you are telling them, and then having the ability to explain it differently, explain the wider cultural context they might be missing, or use simpler vocabulary

i feel like we dont talk enough about how distressing and disturbing memory loss issues are. forgetting what you were talking about halfway through a sentence, putting something down and instantly forgetting where you put it. having to reread one paragraph over and over again because by the time youve moved onto the next sentence you dont remember what the one before it said. always doubting if your memories of things are real, not being able to remember important life events.

its so incredibly scary, it feels like your mind is constantly playing tricks on you and you start to doubt whats real and what isnt.

“i forgot” is treated like a lazy excuse when it’s genuinely such a big issue for so many people.

They should invent a method of asking for reassurance that nobody secretly hates you that doesn't make people secretly hate you.

a reblog chain with screenshots. they are all of posts by the freedom flotilla coalition, FCC for short. FCC is providing updates on Madleen, the ship headed to the gaza strip, with humanitarian aid supplies and activists onboard.

first update: "Update from FFC Press Officer, Hay Sha Wiya: The Madleen is currently under assault in international waters. Quadcopters are surrounding the ship, spraying it with a white paint-like substance. Communications are jammed, and disturbing sounds are being played over the radio."

second update: picture of the ship's video feed. all the people onboard are seated, wearing orange life vests, holding their hands up in the air. whoever is ordering them to do so are not in frame.

third update: message by FFC. three siren emojis. "IOF HAS BOARDED THE VESSEL. Connection has been lost on the Madleen."

fourth update: message by FFC. "ISRAELI FORCES HAVE KIDNAPPED THE GAZA FREEDOM FLOTILLA ACTIVISTS"

How to use Em Dash (—) and Semi Colon ( ; )

Since the ai accusations are still being thrown around, here's how i personally like to use these GASP ai telltales. 🦄✨

Em Dashes (—)

To emphasize a shift / action / thought.

They're accusing us—actually accusing us—of using AI.

To add drama.

They dismissed our skills as AI—didn't even think twice, the dimwits—and believed they were onto something.

To insert a sudden thought. Surely they wouldn't do that to us—would they?

To interrupt someone's speech. "Hey, please don't say that. I honed my craft through years of blood and tears—" "Shut up, prompter."

To interrupt someone's thoughts / insert a sudden event.

We're going to get those kudos. We're going to get those reblogs—

A chronically online Steve commented, “it sounds like ai, idk.”

Semi Colons ( ; )

To join two closely related independent sentences / connect ideas.

Not only ChatGPT is capable of correct punctuation; who do you think it learned from in the first place?

Ultimate pro tip: use them whenever the fuck you want. You don't owe anyone your creative process. 🌈
