This site added 'please give reasons why this post that we have flagged should not be considered sexually explicit' and the Power it's taking me to not write "these are two screencaps of a woman holding a square perfume bottle, can you please explain to Me which universe that these look even vaguely like any kind of genitals?" Because Honestly.

#i had no idea they'd brought back appeals #i wonder how much sarcasm they end up with #the Only reason I'm holding back is bc i imagine that the people dealing with this hate that stupid algorithm way more than me #bonus points bc nothing I've ever had that deserved flagging has yet been flagged lol #that's tempting fate but Honestly #algorithms are shit lol

So, I have a big advice post to write, but until I have the spoons, I want to warn everyone now who has legally changed their first name:

Your credit score may be fucked up and you need to:

check *now* that all your financial institutions (credit cards, loans, etc) have your current legal name and update where necessary

check that all 3 credit bureaus, on their respective sites, not via a feed like Credit Karma (so, Trans Union, Equifax, Experian) are collecting that info correctly and generating the right score - you might need to monitor them for a few months if you made any changes in #1

I am about to apply for a mortgage and learned that as of 2 weeks ago:

Experian suddenly thinks I am 2 different people - Legal Name and Dead Name (none of whom have a score)

Equifax has reported my active 25 year old mortgage as closed and deleted one of my older credit cards, hurting my score by 30+ points

Credit scores influence everything from big home/car loans to insurance rates to job and housing applications.

And for whatever reason, the 3 bureaus that have the power to destroy your life are shockingly fragile when it comes to legally changing one's first name.

So, yeah. Once I get this mess cleaned up for myself, I have a big guide in the works if you find yourself in the same predicament. But with the mass trans migration out of oppressive states, odds are there are a lot of newly renamed people who are about to have a nasty shock when applying for new housing.

Take care, folks.

#trans stuff #transgender #credit score #united states #it is wild having an 800 spread between credit scores lol #a human being could identify there is a problem but so much life impacting shit is automated by stupid and biased algorithms

Ngl I don't get the point of following someone and then not interacting with their posts in any way like why did you follow in the first place

#ramblings #The algorithm can only be blamed for so much #Some of yall just wanna boost your followers #But then you rb shit about supporting other simmers LOL #I'm not even just speaking on my behalf yall do it to my moots too

sonny having a 6.9 rating on fotmob is criminal lol my boy misplaced only 3 passes, had 7 recoveries, carried that backline the entire game, had some good drives forward and such a strong and calm build up play

#justice for my starboy #i may be a bit biased but jokes aside she was SO GOOD today #proof that algorithms are shit lol #emily sonnett

i don’t think i have ever seen a boom in ichiro art as big as the one that happened on my feed after this dropped btw LOL

#this is vee speaking #the arb chronicles #outside of his bday ofc 😌#like i try not to interact with ichi art in the first place bc the algorithm puts stuff i don’t rly care to see lol #so i do tragically miss out on a lot #but holy shit y’all LOL #it was a blend of fun wholesome stuff for jiro’s bday and then some very intense ichiro art and it was sick tbh lol #it is absolutely hilarious how rei is the only one smiling in this set tho LOL #do we expect to see mtc at all???? like it’s a yokohama event but so far all we’ve seen are dh and ichiro 🤔#guess we’ll find out 🔜 lol

do you ever feel like an absolute creep just for looking at somebody's social media profile and not interacting at all and it's like you feel like they can see you scrolling and reading and thinking and if you make one wrong move they know everything

#my social anxiety is insane. im literally looking at a web page #tales from diana #what if they get notified that someone looked at their publicly available posts #often enough when i do this. i just block the person. lolllll #but then i worry what if they somehow know that i blocked them 👁#and it's like. well. i know twitter is shit nowadays and musk changed a buncha things (allegedly. idk i havent tweeted since late '21)#but i bet they still don't notify someone when someone just looks at their tweets and leaves and blocks #and it's so ridiculous bc my account is private. has like 30 followers. hasn't been active in over 3 years #algorithmically it's completely hidden as far as anythign goes. i ONLY use it to lurk since u cant look at tweets wo logging in anymore #but i'm like what if i show up in this guy from high school's recommended. yeah as if lol #but i have to be so honest w you... the guy from high school... was really funny i love reading his tweets lol

to everyone rb’ing/commenting on my art/everyone who fav’d it on tiktok n in general all the support for my writing n art n creations the last month??? i want you to know you have rendered me into a permanent state of this:

#txt #virgil vents #laughed my ass off bc i legit posted my speedpaint on tt (super ooc for me i never post there)#got 200 views or so and was like OHHMYHOD THATS CRAZY #goes to fyp -> scrolls 3 x -> large artists complaining about only getting 200 views #and don’t get me wrong i understand that like 200 isnt a lot by like todays social media standards #but considering for over a decade now #not even five other people have seen my art #the fact that ive gone from that to. TWO HUNDRED. seeing it in the span of like an hour #???????? hello????? thats huge #idk maybe someone else could use this reminder too so ill say it:#dont measure ur value by the numerical statistics of views or likes or rb’s #its ok to want recognition and for your work to be seen or interacted with! its ok to post/create bc u want to share it w others #but don’t get caught up in the How Many = How Much I Matter trap #the algorithm isnt made for you to feel good its made for you to compare constantly #but like… idk.#maybe its just bc im still new to posting what i make #but 200 views is a huge deal to me?#1k hits and 4 comments on ao3 is GIANT to me #like these things end up feeling small to people over time as they gain traction & i understand that #but… i think we lose our roots (& minds) sometimes trying so hard to Be Seen or Be Recognized or just. wanting to feel Good Enough.#but what you make isnt good enough bc someone else sees it as that #its good enough because it came from you! because you did it! you made it and you shared it and you drew from an experience and learned #and are sharing that with the world. and that? that is always good enough #<- idk reminders for myself obviously too but lol #it was ironic legit being like WAHHHH I GOT 200 VIEWS IM SHITTING MY PANTS to immediately #big name artist complaining about that exact amount of views lmfaoooo #like actually no im sorry fyp i dont relate to that!!! those 200 views mean everything to me! people FAVORITED IT!!!#someone commented HOLY SHIT on just my wip!!!!!!#thats??? enough for me!??? someone saw it. someone loved it. someone thought it was worth saving. someone read my words. someone commented

It is genuinely a weird feeling to have been tracking AI development since 2014 and seeing all the people just find out about it in the past 4 years because the same people that will call you a horrible degenerate for going anywhere near AI are literally the same people who praise Tiktok for its algorithm and they don't even know. They don't even *know* what the algorithm is.

#personal post #i looked it up and now algorithm aren't 'technically ai' anymore #because the type of ai we think if now is different from the type of ai they use in algorithms #but... ai is also just a marketing term anyway #what we call ai Isnt even ai officially because its not intelligent. objectively.#its dumb as fuck ngl. lol #thats not what intelligent means here but anyway #but yeah the tiktok algorithm the YouTube algorithm #literally anything that has the word algorithm in it #the software used in editing programs to remove background noise (i think)#the software on photoshop that edits out background but not in the “remove all pixels 50% related to this color pixel” way but the #“determine what is not a person” here way #thats all ai (im pretty sure)#and they dont even know.#because they weren't an insane kid like me who liked to watch algorithm videos and math videos on YouTube #do you know how many fucking chatbots ive talked to???#ive put too much info about how that shit works into my head its stupid #but yeah i watched the fucking blobs build a civilization get on my fucking level #no one is going to get that reference. literally no one.

Got jumpscared by my own full legal name showing up in my email notifications bc I forgot I emailed my code to myself today just in case my VM ends up stopping working again (I got nervous & didn't wanna lose my progress lol)

Goldfish level memory retention

& the funny thing is that the email itself is just. This

Full Legal Name code • hi

#speculation nation #title 'code' email is just 'hi'. with the .c file attached of course #honestly i had a very productive day in lab today. i got the core structure of the program down and made sure it all worked #testing it with One of the sorting algorithms. and it worked!!#the lab is to code functions for different kinds of sorts. like bubble sort selection sort and uhh. some other shit idr rn #and have the functions take timestamps from before and after they run the sorts to calculate the elapsed time #and we have to run this for array sizes of like. 10 50 500 etc etc up to like 50000 or smth? if i remember right.#and then once all that's done we take the output and graph the time elapsed for each type of sort/search per array sizes #so today at lab i made the random array generator function. a swap function. the execution function. bubble sort. and main.#main calls the execution function passing in the array sizes. execution(10); execution(50); etc #execution defines the array of that size. then calls the random number generator to populate the array. then passes it to the sort functions #tested with my one bubble sort function. which finished in like 0.00003 seconds or smth for array size 10 #BUT taking the time stamps was tricky. there are a lot of ways to do that. and time(); in c is in full seconds #i ended up asking the TA if he had a recommendation for what to use bc theres a LOT of time functions out there #and full seconds isnt precise enough for this purpose. & he recommended clock()!!#records number of clock ticks which is NOT the same as seconds. but when u divide it by uh. forgetting it rn but it's a constant #that will turn it into actual seconds. clock tics per sec?? smth like that.#so anyways very productive 👍 i just need to set main up to call execution function for all the different array sizes #and then write all the functions for the different sorts/searches. but i have the core structure down with the bubble sort function #(specifically with the time stamps and the print function after) that i will copy-paste for all the other functions #and then inside them i put the basic code. none of it's complicated. all can be found on the internet easy.#SO!!!!! honestly i think itd take me less than an hour to finish. tho plotting out that graph is going to be annoying #something like 6 sizes per 5 sort/search functions. painstakingly copy pasting each one into excel or smth lol #but yea im content with how much ive gotten done. yippee!!!!#now i just need to finish my web programming lab before sunday night. blehhhhh

#ive been in such a shit spiral #of like. insecurity. and just. feeling useless.#been fighting the urge to delete e v e r y t h i n g #pretty much just tumblr and ao3 cause im not super active on social media #but the sense of: is my presence even noticed is high #and like in a sense its true cause everyone has their own lives etc etc #but its also: sometimes we all need some validation and reassurance #im terrible at social stuff to start with. making friends is really tough for me #so i guess part of the urge is also: no one is really going to notice? because im not super active anyway?#and then you add in the algorithm and stuff snd its like im mostly invisible lol #tbh i feel like my attempts at reaching out never really work #which is probably on me (ref: terrible at social stuff) but even so it doesnt feel good lmao #at some point it starts to feel pushy and desperate and whiny?#it is what it is #personal nonsense #delete later

#work has been insane so of course my mind has been thinking about The Past #I don’t make a habit of Looking around places I’ve effectively sworn off usually but #idk its bittersweet #time passes and I’m gone and new things come but some things have stayed the same and it’s not a bad feeling just unexpected #it’s weird when I can directly see My Impact though #an echo of it at least #anyway my Instagram algorithm is fucked so that’s bringing me back to toxic shit from 2018 and I don’t need that in my life #I’m better at my mental illness when I’m not around other people with the mental illness. which is stupid and hilarious lol #like ah yes yall are still fucked in exactly the same way you were 6 years ago. carry on #I’m also still fucked that way but I shall be doing that in my own hermit cave without everyone lmao

I feel like the apparent feud that's developed with the swifties and amc!lestat on twitter perfectly illustrates how little that version has to do with canon lestat. It'd be more funny if I didn't have to get jump-scared by sam reid in the worst fashion I've ever seen in my life.

#the twitter algorithm keeps showing me amc shit no matter how many pictures of jayden revri i click on lol #please save me pretty 80s bisexual charles Rowland
