I’m in a basic computer programming course right now and I’ve found that when you’re chunking out problems it really helps to imagine like you’re sarcastically explaining a task to someone who frequently utilizes weaponized incompetence

tbh i think the funniest phenomena that's been happening in the last couple years is "youtuber, having gone too deep into the research hole, has been made an investigative journalist against their will"
#like im not gonna name names but i can think of at least 3 channels#where they stopped posting short form content and went#wait the patreon is paying my rent im no longer a slave to the algorithm gods#HELL YEAH TIME TO SPEND 5+ MONTHS PUTTING TOGETHER A 3+ HOUR VIDEO#and i eat that shit up every time

did this as a quick scribble at like 1 AM last night and...immediately lost all motivation to ever clean it up. ( ᐛ ) but I had to draw my son being the fanciest little flower boy who ever threw petals down an aisle. oh my god.
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#eternity float#eternity float of the coral sea#surprise! my art actually CAN look worse!#but i just love these fancy lads so much#like i was initially kinda 'CORAL S -- aw no merforms? :('#but i figure they're probably saving a proper underwater event for azul so whatever it's time for HYPE#especially because it looks like it might be WEDDING-THEMED(!!!)#and/or kiss the girl(!!!!!!!)#and honestly for both of those jade is actually the funniest possible ssr choice#sorry leona we found the one event that...no he would still be hilarious. dangit.#honestly though these are top-tier choices all around#if i was going to walk around a beach while jade talks endlessly at me about the legend of the mermaid princess with big sleeves#i could ask for nothing better than riddle malleus and rook to be standing there tossing flower petals at me the whole time#i know it's probably all ~algorithm-based~ or whatever they have that tells them what characters to use#but there is legit a little something i think in doing a kiss the girl theme with those three#the three guys who have some of the most trouble properly expressing themselves#and also jade who i assume just thinks they're all prime sources for hilarity#he will 100% be looking for opportunities to 'accidentally' push someone overboard#bonus points if there's a very fancy cake that they can fall into on the way down#i don't know anything about what the story will be yet but i know that much is true

It's a bit tepid and a bit late, but at this point I welcome any support from British celebrities of a certain age.
#I do agree with him though that having thousands of people dogpile her probably helped to radicalise her as much as anything#but I think that this is not actually something you can guard against#i think that algorithmic social media and twitter in particular are designed to breed outrage and that radicalism is an outgrowth of this#more people need to be aware of the economics of social media

understanding academic concepts got me blushing swinging my legs giggling
#dude I spent like 3h trying to understand one algorithm yesterday & wrote the messiest most confusing ever paragraph abt it to the thesis#only to have a WAIT A MINUTE-moment today and completely rewriting that in like 20minutes#dont wanna say yesterday was wasted bc I'm sure that was just the thinking process I had to go through to get it to my head#studyblr#uni studyblr#april 2024#2024

hey boys, don't be assassin-HATERS
(edit: the original version had Lucanis also questioning his/Spite's tastes, but the extra words looked a little too crowded/clunky) (so just know Lucanis IS questioning why he's attracted to these numbskulls)

heartstopper isn't cringe it's just sincere and you guys are weak as fuck
#oh no an emotion without any irony whatsoever how will i survive#that's what i hear anytime i see someone call heartstopper cringe#which keeps happening for some reason#what part of me makes social media algorithms think i will enjoy seeing that instead of blowing up in frustration#heartstopper#heartstopper season 2#nick and charlie#tao xu#elle argent#tara jones#darcy olsson#tara and darcy#tao and elle#issac henderson#alice oseman#kit connor#joe locke

As cameras becomes more normalized (Sarah Bernhardt 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 cameras 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 manufacturing companies. I paint not because I want a painting but because I love the process of painting. So even in a future where everyone’s accepted it, I’m never gonna sway on this.
if i have to explain to you that using a camera to take a picture is not the same as using generative ai to generate an image then you are a fucking moron.
#ask me#anon#no more patience for this#i've heard this for the past 2 years#“an object created and controlled by companies” anon the company cannot barge into your home and take your camera away#or randomly change how it works on a whim. you OWN the camera that's the whole POINT#the entire point of a camera is that i can control it and my body to produce art. photography is one of the most PHYSICAL forms of artmakin#you have to communicate with your space and subjects and be conscious of your position in a physical world.#that's what makes a camera a tool. generative ai (if used wholesale) is not a tool because it's not an implement that helps you#do a task. it just does the task for you. you wouldn't call a microwave a “tool”#but most importantly a camera captures a REPRESENTATION of reality. it captures a specific irreproducible moment and all its data#read Roland Barthes: Studium & Punctum#generative ai creates an algorithmic IMITATION of reality. it isn't truth. it's the average of truths.#while conceptually that's interesting (if we wanna get into media theory) but that alone should tell you why a camera and ai aren't the sam#ai is incomparable to all previous mediums of art because no medium has ever solely relied on generative automation for its creation#no medium of art has also been so thoroughly constructed to be merged into online digital surveillance capitalism#so reliant on the collection and commodification of personal information for production#if you think using a camera is “automation” you have worms in your brain and you need to see a doctor#if you continue to deny that ai is an apparatus of tech capitalism and is being weaponized against you the consumer you're delusional#the fact that SO many tumblr lefists are ready to defend ai while talking about smashing the surveillance state is baffling to me#and their defense is always “well i don't engage in systems that would make me vulnerable to ai so if you own an apple phone that's on you”#you aren't a communist you're just self-centered

we need to normalize attaching this image to literally every single post on the internet in 2025
#like legitimately I think everyone would benefit from an omnipresent reminder to doubt#my twitter algorithm got fucked over and it pushing me discourse instead of art for some reason#and it’s just like… what is even the state of social media right now..#any literally who can saying ’breaking!:’ and type any shit they want then get 90k interactions#and there’s like zero people questioning it in the comments#then there’s people with like funny story posts that are using easily findable images

omg its finally real this thing had the wildest process ever, details below cut

OK SO this was originally the last hornetober (from @silksongeveryday) piece, vessel, which I made abt this au where hornets a bit less sane (and maybe just a bit weaker to infection) and becomes a willing vessel of the radiance, amplifying Her power and making problems. Basically the bad ending.
However. my ego boost from a successful inktober made me underestimate painting both of these guys and didn't touch the painting for 6 months. But. I remembered it existed last week and decided to cut hornet and her complicated radiance fluff that I had no clue how to render and make it just the hollow knight lol. And now it's here yippee.
#sry for the yap session this thing was a lot#I wanted to do a proper background but the way I did it was not very forward thinking and the placeholder background became the final...#also this thing was 80 layers bc I dumb..#also this is the first time my stuff might look like a//i so I'm saying now this isn't a//i I hate those algorithms#jeffdraws#hollow knight#the hollow knight#hollow knight fanart#hollow knight art

and if you don't dance you will be still
and if you're still you will never move again
study of this piece by megumi sugizaki !! apologies that i can't find it in any higher resolution
#while this is a study i got overly analytical abt milla over it. of her pushing herself to remain true to the persona she's built#even when shes so very tired. she has to keep moving. i think she struggles reckoning with the nonlinearity of recovery#i will expand on this more one day but .yeag. this was really fun thankyou pinterest algorithm :]#maple doodles#psychonauts#psychonauts fanart#milla vodello

Seeing other esl person using gendered pronouns for all kinds of random inanimate objects is always fun because
1. Wooooa they also got gendered words in their language cool.
2. What do you mEAN A BOOK ISN'T SHE/HER???
#all books are ladies in my country#Don't mind me I just think that other languages are weird and fun#but also#looked up some French lyrics and got sent down the algorithm of French beginner level linguistic fun facts
