I have a bad habit of only reading finished fics because my brain likes having the whole thing available, but MAN. So glad I managed to break that habit for Midnight Strangers, this fic is damn excellent

Too easily distracted to finish writing multi-chap fics, too long-winded and full of ideas for oneshots :( I am gods’ least favorite /silly

For everyone asking if it was Sparkbird, you are 50% right lol, I went through my history and the song was Preybirds by Sparkbird & Rabbitology

I was listening to an indie artist I’d recently found and thought, “oh, this song makes me think of Desert Duo”

Started scrolling through some of their posts. One of their song promos was tagged with #thirdlife #scarian

Every time I think I’ve escaped they drag me back in

I wake up and Sam and Dream were apparently rp’ing a prisonduo bit on Tina’s stream wherein:

Dream says he has PTSD

There was a CHAIR: “sit down at the seat, Dream, this is literally just like the real prison”

Sam interrogates Dream about Tommy and tells him “it’s exactly like the prison”

Dream gets drugged

Sam says, and I quote, “You put me in charge because you trust me the most”

Sam blames Dream for the potatoes again. And confiscates Dream’s steak. And also says “If you wanted to eat you could have just said so”

“No snacks for the prisoners, how dare you.” “No snackies, only wall and interrogation for you!”

Sam, dismissively: “You don’t even remember why you’re angry.”

they’re SICK. someone put me out of my misery.

This applies here too. If you like AI, please unfollow me.

What do u have against ai? :(

How much time do you have?

1. Generative AI is trained on the works of artists and writers without consent or compensation. It’s literally stealing from actual people. And no, it isn’t “learning like a real person” because it isn’t a real person. It’s a program that is incapable of creating anything new of its one. All generative AI is built on theft by corporations from small independent creators.

2. It uses considerably more power than most other current technology. Like, arguably it is worse for the environment than NFTs. The amount of water it wastes is absurd, the uptick in energy usage is absurd.

3. Corporations are salivating at the chance to cut creative people out of products. They don’t want to pay people for their work because they don’t respect art and artists. As long as we live under a capitalist system, people need to be able to own what they create and be able to provide for themself with their own skills.

4. The misinformation and disinformation generative AI can cause and has ALREADY caused is insane. People have had their faces and voices stolen without consent or compensation. People can generate believable deepfakes of politicians and social figures that will degrade the truth and potentially even damage our already messed up political climate. How would you feel if someone posted a realistic video of you praising a product you never bought? Or vouching for a politician you hate? Or saying you think all gay people should die?

5. This one is just personal, but I don’t care what a machine “makes.” Creativity is special to me because it lets you see the world through someone else’s eyes. Art of all kinds—writing, art, music, roleplay—is a kind of communication. I want to communicate with people, not an inanimate object mimicking what a person would be like. The joy of art comes from creation. Reducing it to only consumption is a disservice to all humankind.

Certain scientific fields have genuine uses for other kinds of AI, and I respect that. But Generative AI is built on theft and disrespect; at best its used for shallow art that someone didn’t care enough about to make themself, at worst its used for scams, disinformation, and stripping away even more of people’s rights.

I legitimately believe there is no current ethical uses for Generative AI. Will there be one day? Its possible, but I honestly find that unlikely. For now, though, if you are pro Generative AI, please unfollow me.

I may not be the most talented artist/writer out there, but I have enough self-respect that I don’t want people who see me as replaceable by machines engaging with my creative works. I put a lot of time, passion, and love into my work. Someone who sees that as equal in worth to something an algorithm spat out in five seconds is not welcome here.

I think not enough ppl in the MCYT space know about Catboy Kenadian. They’re a really smart and funny creator who mostly does escape rooms/prison escapes & debunking folks who fake it. And sometimes they throw in some intense theaterkid bullshittery that always hypes me up.

The video below captures a pretty good sample of Kenadian’s style/content! Its one of those “I didnt know I could be so invested in a topic I have never heard about” type videos. I didnt know what the title/thumbnail was about when I first watched it and it still ended up being super fascinating and well explained

Idk I just think he’s neat :)
