hope you feel better soon!
I am riddled with ailments, but I stay silly!
#ask#non mdzs#My health journey has been: Hernia -> acid reflux -> Vocal pain due to aforementioned reflux -> chest infection.#I'm terrified to know what's about to hit me next. Please let it be something kind. PLEASE.#The consequence of living with linguists is that you'll wake up with a wacked up voice -#suddenly you're sitting you down in front of a program called something like Praat having your shimmer and jitter levels calibrated.#They gave me a GRBAS of 33012. I have a fun thing called a pitch break where a whole octave just does not exist.#My vocal pain was bad enough I ended up seeing a speech pathologist and that whole experience was super neat!#I learnt a lot about voice - to be honest I might make a little comic on it after some more research. Fascinating stuff.#For example; your mental perception of our voice modulates the muscles of the vocal folds and larynx.#meaning that when you do have changes (inflammation = more mass = lower frequency)#your brain automatically attempts to correct it to what it 'should sound like'. Leading to a lot more vocal strain and damage!#And it gets really interesting for trans voice care as well - because the mental perception of one's voice isn't based on an existing sampl#So a good chunk of trans voice training is also done with the idea of finding one's voice and retraining the brain to accept it. Neat!#Parkinsonial Voice also has this perception to musculature link! The perception is that they are talking at a loud/normal volume#but the actual voice is quite breathy and weak. So vocal training works on practicing putting more effort into the voice#and retraining the brain to accept the 'loud' voice as 'normal'.#Isn't the human body fascinating?#Anyhow; Now I have vocal exercises and strategies to reduce strain and promote healing.#Which is a lot better than my previous strategy of yelling AAAH in my car until my 'voice smoothed out'.#You can imagine the horror on the speech path's face. I am an informed creature now.#I'm my own little lab rat now. I love learning and researching. Welcome to my tag lab. Class is dismissed.#I'll be back later with a few more answered asks </3 despite everything I'm still going to work and I need the extra sleep.#Thank you for the well wishes! And if you read all of that info dump; thank you for that as well!

"...Its apears that a tragic had happened in the adoptive home life of Master Bruce´s biological litle brother, and both the state and the Infinite Realms sems to think this house is the perfect place to him and his mirror born twin sister. I expect you all to read this informative triptic because Yung Masters Dany and Dani (neme changing pending) are now half of a rare and prety multidimencional guarded species.

Jackson was the frist one to react.
"Holy shit! this time te suprised new silbing one is Bruce?!"
"Oh so is it hereditary... " was Dick reaction
"A rare and delicated species you said? I shal go to therapy then." was Damian two cents before going to the library in seearsh of a good candidate.
Menawile... Bruce had yet to rebot.
Tim: okay but how jung?
Alfred: human 11 yeears old, and in ghost form 5 months old. Little Dani is just 2 months old. ¿Could you belive it? Please Miss Kent, go and give this nasty Master man a beaten up could you? i would go after him myself but i need to take care of the litles halfas.

When I was applying for undergrad, I was fully in my "All my favorite characters are weird smart academic types" phase, because I Iike many undiagnosed twice-exceptional teens had carefully constructed a personal identity around a certain (incredibly harmful) societal idea of intelligence. It totally showed in the institutions I was applying to, too, and in particular, my motivation for choosing them.
This also lead to me making bad choices in the long run and was completely unsustainable, but I will admit that it was helpful when it came to motivating myself to complete my college applications. (Especially considering one of my top schools -- and the one with the most involved application -- happened to be a university that a beloved favorite character had attended but also, it is really, really good in retrospect that I did not get in there.)
I am happier and healthier now and have a much more sustainable image of success in my head, if an imperfect relationship with it, but this also means I have a complicated relationship with the fictional academic archetype and the type of characters I used to love, and that used to be motiviating to me. A lot of my favorite characters these days are ones who possess other traits I admire -- tenacity, kindness, a strong sense of justice, and a desire to change the world for the better. But I don't associate most of them with school or academic success at all; sometimes even the opposite.
All this to say, seeing as I have grad school apps due in exactly a month now. Save me Palamedes Sextus. Save me.
#i was so resistant so saying pal was my favorite tlt character entirely because of this but listen. he definitely still is#he possesses a lot of traits i admire for healthier reasons while ALSO being very academic. and that's very different#but i need to channel him like hell this month#i have to finish my research project since it's going to be my writing sample AND finish all my application materials before december. augh#what's really funny is pal is amusingly emblematic of this whole process#seeing as i'm sitting here saying i have a healthier relationship with academic achievement now but also still planning on doing a phd#and applying to like. several ivies not because they're prestigious but because they have hsci programs and that's my passion now#it's very ironic but also like. very much a good thing#but yeah. save me palamedes sextus

The only ethical generative AI I’ve ever seen is stuff like synthv where it’s a consensually created database that only enhances what was already being made instead of replacing something. Like it genuinely is just improving a tool
#I do wish I could turn off the auto tuning tho#I like to tune by hand but still I really appreciate how it’s entirely consensual and they have the voice providers record a bunch of#different samples to have the program know how that singer would sing that note in your song#and it’s not like it’s actually getting rid of jobs either#bc vocaloid and synthv were here way before AI was a thing#they aren’t replacing singers just as much as synths don’t replace real instruments#I know this has always been a debate about vocal synths#but it’s literally the same as buying kontak or any other instrument synth banks#having a realistic guitar synth doesn’t replace guitar players lol

i wrote this song about communication problems for google translate a while back because i wanted an excuse to use my google translate utau
the instrumental has been constantly updated because there was always a new part bothering me each time but i think i'm okay with this version now. hopefully it lasts until i have time to make a video for it on youtube
cover art:

#google translate#< is that even a tag??#vocaloid#utau#music#audio#doodles#the girl in the art is an oc named kisei luu#she's a computer virus/program who wants a voice but has to borrow existing samples to make up for her lack of it

Applying for my Master's in gender studies kind of feels like shooting myself in the foot, but then again, it's not a useless discipline if it's being systematically censored and erased.
#not sure what research i could offer that has actual value#like i'm not doing scientific or health-related research. i'm not an engineer like all my relatives lol#i just like to think... and theorize..... what happened to all the theorists and philosophers?#seems like nowadays there's no point to grad school unless you're doing something stem or business related#annoying as fuck really.#i thought very hard about information technology and there's still time. i just have such a passion for gender/queer studies#too bad there aren't any programs that are just focused on queer/trans studies :)))))#and gender studies programs are at risk of being shut down. so that's awesome.#i still have some thinking to do....... because i don't want to shoot myself in the foot#like do i really want to work in higher education? do i reeeeally?#at the risk of sounding very arrogant i will say i'm not worried about my application if and when i do it#because i was easily the top student in my undergrad program and i have my current job to show for it#i've got great references and writing samples. just need a more concise idea for a research project...

sorry if you got this ask before but what program do you use to make music/where u get samples?
Hi hello anon!! The program I'm mainly using is GarageBand, otherwise I have used some free browser based programs like beepbox and chrome music lab. I don't use a lot of samples really, in my latest one I used wave sounds that I found on beepbox, but otherwise I don't really know where to get good samples sorry :]
#i know there are a lot of good programs out there buta lot of them are expensive lol#all of the programs i use are free or came installed into the macbook when i bought it#which is honestly insane. GarageBand is really good for being something just??? preinstalled on the puter???#maybe sometime can comment here if they know good places for samples?#inviting all sample knowers into this post right now ‼️‼️

I’m not that knowledgeable about femdom specifically but the difference between jp/kr is so real. Like the female characters in general feel so different… there are so many female characters in manhwa, even random side characters, that are scary and mean (hot), rlly strong/confident personalities, that I just do not see in jp manga. Also have no idea why + smt I’ve been puzzled about. Feel like it can’t just be a translation thing.
It's difficult to fully articulate since 1) who am I to comment on the state of writing for books in languages I do not speak and 2) as a non-native, I'm only ever aware of what stories other people choose to translate and the majority of comics are probably not being translated.
...But with all that acknowledged, yeah. I know exactly what you mean. And I don't know what to make of it either. It's so noticeable if you grew up on manga where even now there's still quite a bit of "waow...a conventionally attractive woman who's 167cm tall, wears pants, and is good at her job...how intimidating..." in work aimed at women
Of course you can find strong/confident personalities in manga and of course #notallmanwha but it's crazy how frequently I'll come across a manwha that sucks ass but still manages to sprinkle in cool, unique, imposing, memorable, cruel, unpleasant, unsettling, etc female characters, who are like that on purpose. What is up with that??? And how do we make that the norm everywhere
#I do feel comfortable saying manwha as a whole consistently has better art than manga#not on a preference level but like there are strong hints that the scene is so competitive you need an art degree to break into the industr#tho I'm not sure I would say I prefer that even if it means fantastic art for mid work#but for writing? No idea but maybe something similar happening here? Maybe you have to graduate from a school with a good writing program#take classes in character writing and have proven samples if you want to dreaming of publishing through Lezhin

im also just rly enjoying how the groundwork to the reveal that this is all the fault of Big Real Estate is laid out i think it's just enough to be subtle and clever about it while also enhancing replays because now you get to spot all the lil billboards/ads and one-liners and posters and other things and go ohhhhhh.......
#like i think that the thing about the fraud being completely based on siphoning money from a vet program wouldve went over my head if#camille and gavriel weren't already like holding my hand and doing utena pointer fingers during my first playthrough#and it's not like i was a kid playing it i was well in my 20s and i think i wouldve been too stupid to Get It if i was by myself LOL#but that's also kinda made me realize that a lot of people who have played and replayed this game still dont get that it's about real estat#........#the newspaper flashbacks also definitely feel WAY more relevant WAY earlier on. imp#imo****#also i guess it's biased sample size but everybody else i talked to irl about this game seems to think that it's about a dope cop mystery#so hmmm.

if in the T$$ universe there are many evil labs does that mean fan oc’s are semi-canon?
🥺
it's hard to say without knowing the OCs in question, but I'd say probably! It's a big world and there's a lot going on ahahaha
#they'd probably at least be canon to an AU#everyone can fit somewhere hehehe#anon#t$$ ask#for example isotope g is canonically like. otherworldly and Rotorworx has the only sample so only those in their program have been#in contact with it#but if a fan OC had an implant similar to Hunter's they could be from an AU where the experiment had more successes#or another/more labs had access to isotope g

Wrote another song! It was meant to be a different song but it disagreed so I decided to let it have it's way rather than try to wrangle and wrestle with it.
It's called Spring, I hope you enjoy it!
(With some random stock video to stare at while you listen)
#sam writes music#this is not me playing piano#I have not yet learned that skill#i just use a really great sample library with my midi program

Current fear that has lodged deep into my soul: Everyone keeps reassuring me that it's not impossible to get accepted into PhD programs without first doing a Master's, and I want to trust them. But when I actually go and look at grad student profiles at the schools I'm applying to, they almost all have M.As or the equivalent. One of the professors I was interested in working with even outright told me that I should look into getting an M.A. first.
I cannot afford an M.A. -- I am the sole provider for both myself and my very disabled partner who cannot work. It's PhD or bust, and I'm very scared I'm wasting my time applying for these programs. And that I may be locked out of a career path I'd really love entirely because I don't have the money for it.
#i should be working on applications or my writing sample but#instead i am stuck in anxiety loop about whether it's pointless to even apply to these places#i am admittedly applying to one (1) M.A. program at a canadian unviersity that might actually give me some funding but#i'm still not sure i could afford to do it if i even get in#anyway. a little stressed. in case you can't tell

Y'all are gonna think I'm so weird.
But I'm running with this idea I've had for a while for my mcl ocs. Well, other than the actual other mcl ocs I've made.
It's part lazy, part bizarre.
Clones.
Yep, clones.
My MCL NG oc is a clone of the original Puku, but different. I haven't figured out the details yet, but it's like what I did with Pukun, Puku's male clone. It has the idea of a type of clone theory idea of nature vs nurture. The DNA and nature of the puku clones is the same, but the nurture is always a bit different depending on circumstances. Puku "prime" is the parent of all the clones made, but Puku "prime" had a different parentage and upbringing than the clones. Not to mention, the events of each mcl game has different outcomes for clone Puku.
This Puku has -teal- hair and is a zoomer, I guess. Raised by Puku "prime" and has the existential grappling of dealing with being a clone in general.
There's... still a lot of ironing out to do. Like... Where does Kentin fit into all this? How should I incorporate the family given to Puku 2.0 in New Generation?
Why am I giving this plot to an MCL OC!??
lol
#my candy love#my candy love new generation#mcl ng#not that it matters at all. i don't believe I'd really write much lore on all this. it's just what my mind thinks of when regarding thispuk#actually I'm leaning more towards Puku 2.0 being raised by the family in universe. but Puku prime is like the creepy person that pops in#from time to time to make sure teal puku is doing alright#all of the pukus are adopted anyway lol#i have to study zoomers so I can know what zoomers are all about#wait... being a zoomer is all about upbringing during a certain time period.. so technically this Puku should be a gen alpha but JUST GO WI#dw guys I'll program this puku with the memories of a gen zoomer#When the teal puku was “born” from the test tube#puku prime put all the things zoomers grew up with on a crt television and had her watch it for a couple years while the body grows rapidly#it's all good fams we got this#teal puku would be like to peers “what do you mean your parents didn't have you watch your memories before they became memories?”#so like... teal puku will be “raised” by puku prime for about 4 years with programming. Then she'll be dropped off at the door step of the#family in NG with the instructions that she needs them to be her new family#yeah it's perfect!#just... so many of those gen z starter packs that I seen around#like minecraff and fortnite and the wii... yeah it's perfect#i need to remember how much aging happens in one year that I must have decided at one point. like a dog.#i think it was 1 year = about 4 years of growth but I can't member rn#but as per usual that growth cycle only goes on until reaching the age of the dna sampled. then it goes back to normal puku dna human growt#so actually 1 year of zoomer childhood programming#wait... the plot holes... are still.. T__T#I'll workshop it.

Rematching comfort media (george trombley's Japanese From Zero lessons) bc I'm rusty and want to get active with the language again, and bc I'm feeling stressed out and need to relax so bad...
(I just feel really warm inside when i rewatch his videos. I hope i get to 250th+ episode again this time :) )
#i wish chinese and french had online series that teach them this well and for free#i always felt like japanese language learner community was very mutual-help driven with all the free programs and resources...#most full chinese and french course videos on youtube are ''samples'' and you need to ''buy peoples courses'' to get anywhere else.#and theres nobody who like... gets this personal. mr trombley is really fun to watch. and he explains everything in a fun way#with personal anecdotes.#hnnnhhh i Wish there were more lesson series like this about other languages. i
