Asterisk is at his desk, the funky robot in front of him, connected by a wire to his computer.

while you're here, you want me to add a fixture so your hat won't fall off?

"THAT WOULD BE APPRECIATED."

got it. first though, let me get the update sent. already got you backed up...

"...IS THE BACKUP STILL ME?"

i'd say so. you can see out the camera connected to my computer, right? I programmed you so that any backups are the same stream of consciousness, as long as it works you should be the same. it's kinda like a hive mind, i guess. anyways, ready?

"...READY."

Asterisk presses a button, with a window confirming the sending of the update as a success. He moves the backup onto a flash drive and pulls it out, putting it somewhere.

cool. now, you might notice you're a little tired for the next few hours while it installs. past that, everything will be fine. now, hold still for a second while i put this fixture on...

Asterisk takes off the plate on the robot's head, and adds a new one with a part on it, attaching some wires to it.

now, it won't work 'till the update's done, but you can use the new part on that to attach a hat there and keep it there. can even change the hat if you want, leave the other ones in that box over there.

Asterisk points at a small box made of metal, labeled "hat box"

"YAY!"

Hey fic writers, a psa~

Sarted doing almost all of my fic reading via text-to-speech software, and I've come across this issue that I'd not realized was a thing until I started using TTS consistently.

If we separate scenes within a chapter with a - (any number of them, happens with -- and ----, too) TTS readers treat it as silent, and will ignore it. It happened with the 3 TTS I've tried so far. They won't even make a pause, just straight treat it as nonexisting and proceed to the next paragraph.

It drives me up the wall specially for fics that have pov change, because sometimes for a few seconds the switch is not obvious and it gets pretty confusing.

Other signs such as //, ***, ## or === work well, the reader goes "asterisk" or "equal equal equal" making it evident that's a scene change.

For folks who are interested in making their fics as accessible as possible, I'd very much recommend not using - as scene breaks!

[omghallucinations]

hello!! apparently there's an alleged confirmed birth time of bp's jennie. 4:45 am, in seoul, 16th jan 1996. that makes her a sag rising, what are your thoughts on it?

omg a scorpio moon queen to add to my suffering deck??? thank you for bringing her to my attention i gotta keep my scorpio moons in my agony locket.

blackpink jennie: holy shit so many modifiers (lilith puppet mastering the chart, 0°s everywhere, neptune conjunct sun, uranus conjunct mercury, yodssss)

literally said "woah" out loud when i put her into my astro software. jennie has a wild chart. and like... a chart that truly makes sense to me given what she's shown of her life. look at all those 0 degrees! uranus at home in aquarius at 0°, venus exalted in pisces at 0°, lilith in leo at 0°--like you could write a treatise about this alone. no wonder she's so iconic all the time and also ummMMM inspires... a lot of... reactions? and wow you can See those interpersonal issues up in there! (speaking as a fellow scorpio moon of course, i know how we be)

question: jennie = capricorn with a scorpio moon? me: ... technically true? neptune exactly conjunct her sun: false. not true at all. erases me from the narrative. how dare you.

her chart has so many asterisks jennie's big 3 are barely accurate as major players. scorpio moon and sag rising can stay, but the sun... it's really missing the intense pisces energy from the neptune conjunction, plus her 12th house placements and her exalted pisces venus at fucking. 0 degrees!!!! like that's a reeeeeally different lens to put over a capricorn. that's a real pisces-capricorn if i've ever seen one. sea goat ass.

first off she does make sense as sag rising to me. many a sag rising will walk into a party and be the most charming and most delightful person there, and they will leave without saying goodbye because they have to escape and they're exhausted from putting on this show and then they go home and sink back into their depression nest where they question the meaning of life then they ghost you for six months before showing back up like nothing happened

jupiter in the first house will sometimes make somebody Too Much for some people, like very buoyant and eats up a lot of air in the room. since her jupiter is in its fall in capricorn this is less overwhelming in a bouncy way but is still like--massive power of personality, which we can see, and the pull of that is so strong it can rub people the wrong way, but other people love it. also saturn is setting her up for some big falls to teach her shit all the time. :/

jupiter is also her chart ruler, which shows in a big way how much of her Journey is about the self, self-assertion and self-expression.

there's something so poetic irony about a sag rising ruled by jupiter in its fall in capricorn in the 1st. it's like jennie is so lucky but that often fucks her over too. in fact it's actually that luck that fucks her over the most.

unsurprisingly jupiter's most major aspect is sextile venus--a natural talent for beauty, music, fashion and art, and for expanding that, broadcasting it. and yet, again, this is her talent but it can absolutely screw her over. unfortch that is really essential to her life Journey--with her sun in capricorn, in this life she's gotta figure out how to judge the worth of different things, how to mature, how to become self-determining, to be the big boss herself

lilith???? girl????

and like---dude look at her lilith. that's the black moon guy up in the 8th. i don't count lilith for a "handle" in a bucket chart since it's a point and not a planet, so she still has a bowl chart with everything clustered in the 12th-3rd houses, but eeeeverything interacts up there.

like... bro??? and at 0° leo in the 8th house--you CANNOT WRITE THIS SHIT i swear to god.

important shit to know about lilith

so the moon moves in this oval shape, right, so it doesn't have one center. there are two focuses--the earth, and a calculated point that we call lilith. there's also an asteroid lilith but it's a real physical thing. black moon lilith means the "shadow side" of the moon.

sidebar: there's 2 ways to calculate the lilith point-- mean lilith, where you find the average of the moon's weird orbit and true lilith (this is the one i do) which shows where lilith is at that exact point in time

so lilith (handshake) the moon, and the moon is your kneejerk emotional reaction shit, your ego, all that stuff.

as humans we love to grow and shit, the sun for example is very intellectual this way and Develops over time, but the moon... ... the way it presents can soften as you learn to manage your emotional impulses better but like... she is what she is. you're gonna react and seek safety in this way pretty much forever babe. that's what's up.

if you're a scorpio moon you are going to love the drama. i mean we hate it but do we??? you need people to acknowledge your agonies. you fear betrayal. you're paradoxically super vulnerable and super guarded. you are going to react INTENSELY out of proportion to shit, frequently.

any water moon can feel like they are Always The Victim, despite the many MANY ways in which we are fully doing this to ourselves lmao. also we can be manipulative as hell in order to get our needs met.

many a scorpio moon's black moon shadow is in leo. and ahhh jennie. babe. my sister in scorpio moons and leo liliths.... sometimes insecurity becomes a way to channel your self-obsession. i mean who among us does not at this point. but... babe....

leo lilith at 0° (basically take the leo dial and turn it all the way up)

captivating, charismatic, eye-catching, creative, power of personality and presence, good heart but great at self-deception

NEEDS attention to survive, NEEDS to be special to survive

Ah, I Give SO MUCH To Others, Yet All They Do Is TAKE!! POOR ME!!! ALL I EVER DO IS GIVE!!

(... babe... it is us who is doing most of the take take taking... not the give give giving... people are doing so much for us all the time... which we tend to take for granted... bc of leo royalty complex.... we accept alms from others and shit without blinking.... or realizing how much we are taking....)

bright side, leo is an incredibly honest sign and a leo lilith can really own this reality and be like lol... yeah... damn that one was on me huh....

there is nothing wrong with needing AtTENTIOn and feeling SPECIAL and being IMPORTANT but we gotta... acknowledge what others do for us and stop thinking we're always the victim

leo lilith at 0 in the 8th house... uh oh

GIRL!! this is the area where jennie can see her dark side so she can deal with it which um. concerns. me. a lil bit.

jennie has Seen Some Shit

some reeeeeeEALLLL dark entertainment industry power mess

she attracts some Dark shit and people into her life and they do prey on her--or have in the past, she may have put up defenses at this stage of her life--and she consciously or unconsciously manipulated situations like these to get what she wanted

(to be clear she should have done that imo. that was the right thing to do. if ur gonna get the shit, at least get yours)

honestly lilith already gives "scorpio moon" just by itself, but the 8th house is the scorpio house so. u can see how the darkness will be. intensified.

there's a lot of questions about sexuality and power, contracts and power, birth and death, that kind of thing, whether she is wielding her own sexual power or whether others are wielding it on her, whether this is empowerment or #trauma, u get what i mean

and this all REALLY weighs on her--lilith opposite sun/neptune/uranus/mercury/mars and forming a yod with venus and jupiter. this is issue numero uno. this is the one she's gonna come back to over and over again.

yoddddDD with jupiter, venus and lilith: :|

i don't yod in a major way with anything that is not a planet or the MC or ascendant, but i gotta make an exception here because wow. don't get me wrong this is not a traditional yod, but it still gives the like. Life Question, Crises, Thought Complex vibe of a yod. yods have a lot of talent/potential/ability but also... agonies. tests and trials.

lilith-jupiter-venus: our major topic!! dark side of your nature/darkness in general, belief expansion goals the future, beauty love art pleasure. 8th house-1st house-3rd house: areas of life and other flavors! power sexuality secrets transformation, the self identity creation, communication curiosity. leo-capricorn-pisces: extra flavor and energy! ego, shine, creativity, optimism, childlike, mature, structured, anxious, The Work, seriousness, escapism, dreams, romantic, floaty, poetic, artistic, forgiveness

this does feel generational to me--it's a very female issue as in it's pretty societal. capricorn jupiter shows profit off of established rules and structures, but it's also not a great place for jupiter to be in. jupiter wants to expand and capricorn wants to shut it down and pick a lane. venus in pisces however is deliriously happy and unencumbered there. she's very romantic. there's part of jennie that is sneakingly aware of her own powers of sort of manipulation and swaying the room (leo lilith) and that preoccupies her. it's like, did she create these situations she was in when she was younger because of her own manipulative abilities? (no!! she didn't!!! it's trauma girl!!! you didn't have a real choice!!!)

ahhh this is gonna get a little real for a second.

to me this looks a lot like the complex between whether jennie feels like she was taken advantage of or if she took advantage of opportunity to get ahead (thus "putting herself" in those situations). it's also what she should continue to do to fulfill her vision and dreams (jupiter) and express her art (venus). should she let the situation subsume her (pisces) or be more suspicious (capricorn). leo lilith is pulling her one way and she needs to figure out whether she's going to deal through escapism (pisces) or through maturation (capricorn), both of which have pros and cons. honestly this is a super complex dance here idk if i'm communicating any of it well at all.

phew well ok. let's keep going at 0°!

more shit at 0°: iconic

so we met our pal lilith at 0° in leo, 8th house. let's move on to....

venus exalted in pisces at 0°, 3rd house

now this energy SHOUTS. no, this energy SCREEEEEAMS.

you cannot put a planet more on blast without also putting it in the 1st house or at an angle. even if this was venus at home in libra at 0 i don't think it would be this loud. a planet at home has more shit to do, you know? a planet that is exalted is wearing vacation fits. hellOOO. pisces x100000. incidentally, her ruling planet jupiter also co-rules pisces, so pisces in general is amped up.

in increasing order of Loud it would be:

planet at 0 planet at 0 at home planet at 0, exalted sign (jennie's venus in pisces) planet at 0, exalted sign in the 1st house or conjunct MC

talk about a real gift and a curse, too. her venus qualities are super amplified--she has a natural love for all things pisces and venus, a lot of which are very fashion-y, very artistic, but so are... the love of red flags. "but daddy i love him" ass! jennie... girl... please stop believing the best in people all the time... please... ... as a personal favor...

there's also something about a pisces venus that makes people want to protect them. she is basically never single and she does not want to be either. especially with a scorpio moon, a romantic partner feels like a need to help her with a stable emotional foundation. any water moon needs reflection to feel safe--they need their feelings to be acknowledged--and sometimes this can be like "must have romantic partner" for that reason.

the 3rd house is also the gemini house, and gemini is very childlike and youthful in general. flirty, chatty, social. also. very curious. will very much touch the stove to see if it is hot. jennie is curious about people and experiences and unfortunately this is how you get 'em. she'll let people in even when they are like

pls girl... don't do it...

pisces venus square 12th house sagittarius pluto

:|

that red flag man? jennie will die for him and he better die for her, because that's love, bitch!! (not saying every romantic partner she picks sucks, am saying she can make a lot of questionable romantic choices in general and trust the wrong people)

ever been rejected in ur life? not jennie!! she will do whatever she has to do to win someone over. she met this person and now they are her forever.

iconic appearance and beauty as power

sexuality as power

if you are beautiful you will be loved

if you make money you will be loved

unconsciously manipulates everyone to make them love her because she's so afraid all the time they won't love her for herself

thinks she can only be loved for her beauty sexuality talent power money

can transform any rag into a scene stealing gown

pisces venus sextile 1st house jupiter in capricorn

love me!! invite me to the party!!!! fomo!!

affectionate, generous, empathetic

cries at commercials

idealizes the relationship partner and then gets disappointed later

grass is always greener a little bit (usually has someone lined up when she breaks up with someone, also true of 3rd house pisces venus)

uranus at 0° in aquarius, 2nd house

uranus at 0° is less like. fun??? than venus at 0°. venus at 0° is a party, but all the outer planets usually are here to uhhh smack you with shit a little bit.

uranus at 0 in aquarius is PROFOUND feelings of alienation and loneliness and other-ness, in the 2nd showing she feels like she never has enough resources and doesn't belong anywhere. and. and!!! it is conjunct her retrograde mercury. girl!!

jennie is waYYYY smarter than people think she is man. mercury and uranus are both very intellectual and kind of amoral planets, and they're in aquarius, an intellectual and kind of amoral sign. uranus is yassified mercury already, so combined we really have some speedy brain movement and objective Vision here. jennie is not easily influenced ideologically. with love, yes, oh so easily. but ideas and her life? no.

with her 2nd house stellium it gives her a taurus flavor--i don't think she cares much about people knowing she's actually really smart, although she cares a lot about her perception in other ways. she's very practical when she's not like. in her head about everything.

aquarius mercury-uranus is so obvious jennie's response to controversy lmao

not gonna apologize

rebellious

when she thinks something is stupid she is gonna say so

tactlessly

has her own mind about things (this is so good considering what we just saw with her venus, that could've gone really badly without some balancing factors)

can "go cold" without warning, usually when she's trying to figure something out

honest (too honest sometimes)

once she's in a Mood she will not play the game

hates the status quo

mercury-uranus in general can be unpopular because it doesn't bend itself or try to make nice

retrograde mercury can also show getting into trouble with what you say, and/or needing to communicate in other ways besides language (like art, music, fashion)

some people really like the combo because this person is super electrifying and exciting to talk to

very clear why jennie seems more interested in working outside of korea and has generally been popular internationally! she gets into a lot of trouble with what she says and does within a stricter society and she's not about to change.

uranus-mercury conjunct mars: bored easily, sticks to her convictions, impulsive, "cut the crap", sees right through you (again, EXCEPT FOR PEOPLE WITH BAD INTENTIONS!! STOP TRUSTING THEM, JENNIE!)

uranus-mercury conjunct neptune-sun: doesn't lie but does spin, makes it cute, makes it sexy, makes it shiny, makes it adorable, u forget why ur mad because she's so cute and pretty

also can get the ole depresh from time to time from feeling so judged or misunderstood (also a scorpio moon theme tbh)

scorpio moon in the 12th

COMPLETELY shuts down to feel safe. goodbye!!!! hermits herself

super emotional and sensitive and terrible lack of boundaries

prone to the ole depresh

TIRED

fame was maybe not the best path for her emotional well being :/ takes shit to heart a lot or just becomes overwhelmed by it all

all scorpio moons have mommy issues of some kind but jennie's look more like she sensed her mom's emotional upheaval than issues with their relationship

moon trine saturn shows that her mom showed her discipline and structure and helped her feel really secure in herself

capricorn sun conjunct neptune in the 2nd house

"capricorn is all about their career" FALSE!!!

to develop healthily and feel good about themselves capricorn suns need to create structure for themselves, usually make or produce something tangible and basically like be a big kid now. they gotta make choices which unfortch means cutting off possibilities!

capricorn sun conjunct neptune um.... hm. well.

pros: beguiling, artistic, sensitive, great aspect for a musician, might be psychic??? cons: mmmm delusions, escapism, incessant swooning, has never met reality before, totally lost a lot, confused about her own identity, nOO boundaries

the cap goals are even more important for jennie to feel more empowered and like herself but they are also harder to attain bc neptune is like. leading her into the fog all the time. there's also some absent dad stuff here, also with the wide conjunction to uranus.

classic neptune-sun is like a) looking for a savior when you're young then b) being the savior to someone else when you're older.

in the 2nd house is sOOO shapeshifter, can pull off any concept, the physical transformation.

sidebars

saturn and pluto are strong in her chart which is like #thanksforthelessons, kind of her entire situation

her strongest element is air, which makes sense to me

pluto in the 12th is a heavy karmic placement, lots of past life stuff, some like... deep internal sense of nebulous guilt stuff??? feels like she needs to merge with others to feel safe

shittons of planets square her lunar nodes, which shows some interruptions in her soul journey in past lives

her south nodes goes wild with aspects, also shows a lot of karmic stuff here

12th house placements = she is so tired

sag rising jupiter in the 1st = she can pull out a firework of energy now and again

wow really can't get over how damn evocative this chart is. talk about archetypes bro. like damn. there's so much going on i feel like i barely covered it but man i feel like i get her a lot more now--she really didn't give a traditional capricorn and now i can see why lmao. like she is a capricorn but that's a quality she's gonna have to lean into and develop. she didn't pop up out the womb with a checklist, u know? she did pop out the womb with the #vision tho.

[systematicallycapricious]

Arbitrary plurality resources post for the year

I noticed that a lot of the 'system tracking' resources out there focus heavily on "who's fronting and for how long in a day" rather than "who's generally active in a day". It's seriously been bugging me, especially since non-fronting and rarely-fronting system members are an established plurality experience! So after looking at other people's recommendations of the former for the umpteenth time, in my frustration, I just started looking through clerical apps on my phone for something, anything that could potentially be repurposed for system tracking.

Low and behold, ICloud Numbers has a handy-dandy auto-graphing feature, as well as an easy-to-use checkbox feature. Salvation at last! So in case anyone else might be in similar straits, I decided to make this post about it to show the set-up I drafted up.

Theoretically, other spreadsheet software could do something similar, or one could finagle it via a mishmash of methods. There might even be dedicated graphing software out there too, for all I know. (I didn't really research it. This one worked for me, after all. xP) So feel free to use whatever works best for you, if you make your own.

Also, a quick note: I'm unsure of how well this would work for a larger system. If any folks interested in this for larger systems are reading, this is your fair warning that this might not be best suited to you. But please, feel free to read through anyways and see if I'm wrong, or if you can find a way to adapt anything here to your needs!

Anyways, that said, screenshots and explanations of things:

————————————————————

Blank Monthly Template

————————————————————

The blank template version of the spreadsheet, because it's so much easier to just copy and paste this than create a whole new spreadsheet page every time.

Going in order of the features...

First off, the color scheme and layout. You can change the colors of the cell backgrounds, all of the text, any shapes you add (like lines), and the page background to any color you like. You can also position elements pretty much anywhere on the sheet that you like. (Personally, I like to keep the spreadsheet in the upper-left because it's faster to access when it's the default loading position of a page.)

Next, the title text elements. Honestly? You don't really need to put anything there if you don't want to. It was just kind of there already with the basic 'school attendance sheet' template I started this from, so I kept it.

If you intend to set it up like I have it, though: “SysName” is for your system (or subsystem, or group of system members') name, though you could use your body name or a specific member's name or whatever-have-you, too.

“Any& can tick boxes at day's end” is a reminder or regulation thing, I guess? I intended it to remind headmates that the job didn't have to fall to just a specific person, and also to invite them to mark their own activity down if they'd like. If other systems have rules on who can and can't do what, though, then maybe it could be helpful to note that here?

The 'one asterisk for P.M.S., two asterisks for period' thing I added because it seemed like it might be useful to the systems that experience it, given hormones can affect mood, dealing with blood or pain can incur various negative reactions, it can involve sensory issues for those with sensory differences, people who don't track days passing very well might be helped by a record of their cycle, etc. For plurals who don't experience it, or who have other things that might be helpful to track like this, you could probably modulate or remove it from your own version?

“Attendance Sheet — Month 20[blank]” is a title to denote the purpose, as well as what month it's specifically for. If you create a different spreadsheet file (not page) for each year, though, you might not need to label the year on the sheets themselves? The file title could suffice in that case.

“Important life context” is to help give future-you context on what was going on in that month, as life happenings can affect who in your collective is active and when. You can pretty much put whatever you find useful here, but make sure to only limit it to what goes on within that month. (Happenings can still span over multiple months, though; just make sure to note it down on all months that it's applicable to.) Also, if you needed more than 3 bullet points for this, you could change the location of the text element to somewhere with more space.

The “Date” column is for every day in the month. I personally keep all 31 rows for dates on the spreadsheet, even in months with less than 31 days, as it's easier to just change the absent days to “N/A” than it is to adjust the spreadsheet template every month. As for the blank cell in the date column... I believe I had to separate it from the “Total” row beneath it due to it messing with something to do with the auto-graphing? But I honestly don't remember, so maybe try to combine that with the row below it in your version.

The “Total Active Per Day” column adds up the total number of checkmarks in the row that each cell inhabits. Thus, basically tallying how many people in the collective are active each day. I added this metric because I was curious about how many of the total member count were active at a given time, and if that fluctuated at different times of the year, or in different circumstances. It can also be a useful insight to how active the system is when life changes occur, like if your physical health is greater or lesser, if you're starting a new medication, etc., so you can see concrete information that doesn't rely on your own internal memory of time or events.

All the columns labeled “Headmate A” and “HM B through S” are for you to put headmate names, monikers, emojis, etc. in. If you don't know who someone is yet, but have evidence or a feeling that someone is there, you can also use temporary monikers such as “Unknown chores-person” or “Rando 1” or whatever works for you. Just make sure you keep their spot in the spreadsheet if you ever update their column header; that way your data stays more consistent and easier to track!

Also, just in general, I don't recommend messing with the places you put system members' columns, as that can make it more difficult to find who is where at a glance. If you need to add someone in the middle of the sheet, make sure to apply that change to your template sheet and your yearly summary!

As for why the headmate names recur in the middle of the spreadsheet's rows... I have trouble visually tracking what column is which when I can't see the headers, so splicing them into the middle of the month fixed that for me. If you don't need such a thing, you can feel free to remove it! It's not necessary for any of the cell coding.

Also related to the headmate columns is the “Max Days Integer” column. This is here specifically for graphing purposes, as things like the bar graphs like to auto-adjust to the highest number input into them, which can make them harder to read. This will have every day in that month checkmarked as to create a benchmark integer.

Lastly, the “Total” row is for tallying-up how many days out of the month that a single system member was active for. The cells are coded to add +1 for each checkmark in the column they inhabit – so make sure you don't accidentally check-off more boxes than there are days in that month!

————————————————————

Filled Monthly Example

————————————————————

This is a filled example of the monthly template! I tried to emulate believable patterns of activity, but I have no clue if I hit the mark, haha. Anyways, this should give you an example of how one of these looks like when used.

Also included in this example are example graphs! You can graph things however you find most useful, but I'll go over the ones I've used here. (Also, note that ICloud Numbers can't currently copy and paste graph templates, so you'll have to set them up anew every time you create a sheet. However, you can open the spreadsheet in two browser tabs at once and just copy and paste the various data-settings onto your new graphs, so long as you remember what cells you specifically linked them to, so that can help preserve uniformity at least.)

First off, the “Days Active” graph. This uses the data from the “Total” row to visually show you what each system member's activity was for that month. To create it, I selected only the cells in the columns labeled with headmates' names, not the whole row, as the blank space from the “Total Active Per Day” row might mess up the graph. (I don't remember specifically.) I also set the “major steps” to be “8”, a multiple of 40, so the data would be easier to read in relation to the days of the month. You can mess around with it and see what's easiest for you to comprehend, though!

Next, the “Total Active Per Day” graph. As you might be able to see by the empty “Date” and “N/A” entries, this reads the entire “Total Active Per Day” column from the spreadsheet and not just specific cells. This graph compares the numbers of total activity across all of the days in the month, and contrasts them against the total number of members in your collective (which you'd input in the cell that intersects the “HM-Total” row and “Total Active Per Day” column).

The T.A.P.D. graph has a major steps number of “10” and a minor steps number of “1”. I'd try to adjust the major steps number to be a multiple of your system's member count, as that way it should be easier to read.

Lastly, the “Activity Frequency” graph. This one also uses the “Total” row for set-up the same way the “Days Active” graph does, but for this one you exclude the Max Days Integer, as this graph is supposed to show you what percentage of the month one headmate was active for compared to the rest of the system. This one admittedly gets harder to read at smaller formatting sizes, as the thinner wedges lose and displace labels, but is also a pain if you make it too big on the page, especially when viewing from smaller screens.

As for the placement of the graphs, you can put them wherever you want on the sheet. I just put them below the spreadsheet, as I find it easier to scroll directly down than the full horizontal length of the spreadsheet.

(Also quick note regarding ICloud Numbers: as far as I know, graphs can only pull data from one spreadsheet at a time, and only from spreadsheets on the same page. So all of your system members will have to be put on the same sheet if you want them all to be on the same graph.)

————————————————————

Yearly Summary, Filled Example

————————————————————

And for our final page, we have the spreadsheet and graphs where you input all the data from the monthly spreadsheets to create a comprehensive, easy-to-review overview of the year. The formatting is pretty much the same as the monthly templates; you just reduce the date rows to '12' for labeling the 12 months in the year and fill the “Max Days Integer” column with the total number of days in each month for that calendar year. (Which means that you'll need to make sure to account for leap years!) Also, the guideline changes to 'adding numbers at the start of each month', and the title of the sheet changes to “Total Number of Active Days — 20[blank]”.

Basically, you update this spreadsheet every time you fill a full monthly spreadsheet. I find that doing it at the start of every new month is the easiest, since the idea of filling out the entire year at once seems too daunting, and this way I get to see the graphs update incrementally instead of having to wait a whole year. But you can do it in whatever way works best for you!

Also, you may notice that there's no “important life context” text element on this sheet. Personally, I think that reviewing that in each individual month would be more informative for me, but if you'd find it useful to have that here, then go for it!

As for the graphs...

The “Total Days Active” is set up the same as the “Days Active” from the monthly spreadsheets, just with 16 major steps instead of 8. It functions the same too; you're just seeing all of the single-month versions of this graph combined into one!

Again, the “Total Activity Frequency (Days)” graph is set up the same as the monthly version, and shows the combination of all of the single-month versions in its data. Pretty cool to see who was around the most and least in a year, in my opinion!

The “Monthly Activity (Individuals)” is specifically an “interactive graph”. This lets you flip through multiple data-sets while using a smaller amount of page space! To set it up like this, you want to create a cell-selection spanning your first headmate's “January” cell all the way to your last headmate's “December” cell, leaving out the “Max Days Integer” cells. The major steps is still set to 8 in this graph, as this graph compares one headmate's number of active days for each month in the year.

The “Total Active Per Month” graph is set up the same as it's monthly counterpart. The only thing is that you now have to do “the total number of members in your system” multiplied by “31” (that being the highest possible number of days in the month) in order to get the benchmark integer for “if every single member of your system was active every single day in a single month”.

This is probably something that would reach ridiculously high numbers for those with higher system counts – after all, it's already at “589” with this example count of “19”. So while it gives an interesting view of the data... it probably could be done in a less clunky way, lol.

And finally, this behemoth of a graph, another thing that probably doesn't work great at larger system counts, haha. You create this the same way as the “Monthly Activity (Individuals)” graph, but including the “Total Active Per Day” and “Max Days Integer” columns as well. Also, the major steps for this graph are 20, not 8. This graph basically lets you see the same data as the 'Individuals' version, but all at once, and with the ability to compare a single headmate's activity against the collective headmate activity for each month.

You could probably get away with using the 'Individuals' version alone if you wanted to; I just personally find it fun to be able to see them all at once.

...Also, evidently there's a column header typo of “Total Active Per Day” rather than “Total Active Per Month” on this spreadsheet that affects its entry on this graph. Oops!

————————————————————

Additional Notes

————————————————————

And that's a wrap! A very... lengthy... wrap... Lol.

Anyways, for 5 quick additional notes:

1: In hindsight, there should probably be a checkbox column for “Too unclear to tell” or “Bad communication”, as that in and of itself would be valuable data to track. So that could be appended to the start or end of the spreadsheet, perhaps?

2: You can put comments on individual cells in the spreadsheet. So if you want to put more nuanced detail on why or what system members were doing in a day, or note down on a 'date' cell what events were transpiring that day, then that's a thing you could do! Or if you wanted to use it to track plans you have for the month, you could also do that, in theory, though I'm not sure how useful that'd be given that comments aren't immediately visible like the cells' data is.

3: You can password-protect spreadsheet files in ICloud Numbers. It gives you the option to set unique passwords for each file, doesn't stop you from using the same password on multiple files, and has the option to set password hints if you need them. So if you'd find that helpful and not a hindrance, then that's an option!

4: I also drafted a version of this set-up to have two spreadsheets in a single month: one for 'active'-presence and one for 'passive'-presence. I did this while I was trying to combine a fronting-tracker with an activity-tracker, as fronting-trackers do still have their merits.

If you want to set something like that up, you basically have to duplicate everything on the monthly sheets to another section of a single month's sheet (or make a separate page for the same month if you want), and then either duplicate the contents of the yearly summary on the same page (not recommended; it gets long) or split the data up into 2 separate pages.

5: Aside from that, writers and character-creators who want to make super-intricate histories for their plural characters could probably adapt this to their purposes too. You'd just have to adjust the calendar to whatever calendar your setting uses, and anything else to whatever would be more useful for fictional purposes.

And that's it! Happy spreadsheeting, y'all!

Citing Your Sources; For People Who Aren't English Majors

in light of an absolutely bomb (haha) video dropping online

let me show you a very quick and easy way to cite your sources for a youtube video, because we don't all know mla format, and that's ok.

you can use any kind of online document software (google docs, pastebin etc.)

in no particular order, though it is good form to list primary or main sources first;

SOURCE [article, book or documentary], AUTHOR/DIRECTOR

link to source [can be linked to source name if software allows]

[timecode] 'quote or passage cited'

[timecode] 'quote or passage cited'

moreover, you can include an asterisk * in the actual video to let your viewers know a portion or passage is in your source links.

a little rant about ai "art"

Many creatives are being actively steered away from creative fields for the purpose of living for a wage instead of living for the art. Just within my friend group leaving high-school (where all of them were creatives, artists, and musicians) of 15, only 5 pursued the arts as a post secondary, the others pushing art aside to be just a hobby, or forgetting and losing it entirely. The unsteady job market has always been a universal truth for artists, however it was always a thing we could keep going at, because while it may not pay much or be harder to “break in” so to speak, there would always be art that needed to be made (graphic design, visual art, photography, video editing, animation, etc.).

Meanwhile developing artists have been fed AI “tools” in their art programs and softwares, and are never learning the true facet of art: that everything has a process, and you have to learn the rules before breaking them. The continuing prospects of AI taking over/replacing artists will discourage new artists to start, thus leading to the loss of a talent so entwined with human history. 

Generative AI – while created at a time that it was a gimmick and a novelty – with the way it has developed and grown, has been taken by many members of this capitalist society as a shortcut to cutting costs, as they can “ethically” cut labour costs. However, their ethics of these cost cuts are simply swapping one bad thing for another: underpaid labour vs intellectual property theft and the ecological concerns brought on by data centers. With the intrigue and allure of making “free” art, the rate at which artists are being hired, commissioned, and even considered is declining at a concerning pace, posing the question: Why do we value needless, and harmful technological "advancements" over the wellbeing of humanity?

Because of generative ai, and ai “art”, in the scope of human history, from this moment on, books, literature, and art, will have an asterisk beside their title reading: *could have been made by a computer.

This creates the problem seen already in human history, with burning of the Library of Alexandria; jealousy and hatred – of the containment of great knowledge, individualism and world perspectives, and the need to seek art out from those trained and talented in the craft – leading to the desecration of works of immense artistic quality and historical value. And while the art (that was unwillingly) used to feed these machines still exists, the artists who created the works no longer have true private ownership of their work, and their contribution to history gets lost in some database that generates more “art” than humanity has the emotional capability to care for.

Even though the blame for the burning of the books, is unplaced and unknown definitively, the loss of the knowledge – contained within the books or of the creation of art – can only be attested to by the ones who committed themselves to the process of learning, and intern cannot be known by the ones who decided the knowledge should be theirs without cost. 

Meaning of art is tied directly to the humanity and nature by which the artist expressed emotion through a piece. Art is made in the nuance, it is made by the mistakes, by the hand, and by the thought process it took to get there. 

When all is said and done, “AI “artists”” will have no personal hand in the creation of the work, and are liars and thieves with no legal claim over a computer’s take on the prompt it took them less than a minute to enter.  

also all excuses and justifications made to defend AI “art” are flimsy at best and stupid 😘✌️ 

Sincerely,

a tired artist who is so fucking done with this shit

[sketchehm]

Ever since I mentioned rwby and rvb before I got ideas mostly rvb ideas. More due to the fact that making team mafia the freelancers and making the munchymc and friends the blood gulch cast is very funny to me.

Just imagining like bbh, Sam, ant, velvet, and Callahan red team. Then making Sapnap, George, Dream, Puffy, and Skeppy blue team.

In my own brain, they kinda have similar dynamics, but definitely some changes like Skeppy and bbh totally having romantic tension, and everyone just wondering when it's gonna happen. Red and ant are already together and are just a loving couple on red team. Callahan is like the Lopez, except he just fixes everything and doesn't talk. Definitely makes some jabs in sign language and or a chat if they have it somewhere.

I kinda like the idea of Dream being like tex and is the freelancer that comes in to stop the nonsense of red team, but "dies". George and Dream always dying together is very funny and sad, but it would be a very sad and funny story for them. Also, the thought of George being the leader is funny because I'm making him church kind of character. I might just have skeppy be blue leader, but he lives instead of the allergy death. It would also fit the bbh and skeppy tension even more being leaders on opposite sides. George can have all the drama and backstory without the leader obligations because if church was a bad leader George would definitely be wayyyy worse. No real caboose, but making patches shelia the tank software would be funny as well.

They just bs in the canyon like in the first 5 seasons (so many brain ideas of similar plots, but just different solutions due to the difference in relationships and characters) then project freelancer becomes a bigger plot point, and team mafia comes in and has their whole backstory. I really want to make shadoune the Washington equivalent because him being the tie with team mafia and blood gulch is too good to pass up.

It's just vague ideas, but having team mafia(and dream) doing cool fight scenes like in seasons 9-10 of rvb is just in my brain. (Also, I have the thought of just having sapnap be in the freelancers because we love all of team mafia together, and I think he'd really fit the character Carolina more than anyone else. I do remember you said you only watched to season 7 and it was a while ago, so sorry for throwing up this idea in your inbox while probably none of this making a whole lot of sense lmao.)

THIS IS REALLY FUCKING GOOD AND I DO KNOW EVERYTHING YOURE TALKING ABOUT

so funny thing! I had woken up extremely early morning and my chronically online ass immediately goes to check tumblr, I'm groggy af here, and I see your ask! I read the first paragraph and laugh so fucking loudly. I then promptly /pass out/. I didn't even read past that first paragraph. I wake up 2 hours later thinking about this??? And the only thought I could recall is that I was wondering who Donut was in this entire thing LMAO (even though I barely remember Donut as a character I just remembered his name)

Reading this ask jogged a LOT of my memory about it funny enough and I think I watched way past season 7 (I kinda did throw a number out there cause it all blurred for me tbh) But I can't pinpoint to you where I stopped in all honestly (guess that calls for a rewatch!)

Anyways since I don't trust my recollection of rvb I'm just agreeing with everything here and all I can think about is George yelling at Bad to "stop fraternizing with the enemy" and that Skeppy is HIS teammates and to stop visiting already. Bad yelling language at everyone and a lot of other silly stuff

Patches as Shelia is top tier and she just meows cause the wrong language module was installed and none of them know how to fix it.

Callahan just typing in chat, and sometimes you'll just see a ******* ***** and it's just Bad replying LANGUAGE and it's followed by more asterisks from everyone else.

Team Mafia coming in eventually (cue the smash character intro) and it's the blood gultch crew like, why the fuck do they get cool cut scenes.....why can't WE fight like that??

(I remember Carolina having a whole ton of issues and I think that tracks for Sapnap, he deserves that existential crisis.....and though it doesn't fit here, somehow his two ai's are spitting images of dream and george and that is Upsetting:tm: for him...maybe cause I'm crazy for Sapnap currently that I'm just thinking more lore for him by accident lmao so i have More thoughts on this but its on very unreliable recollection of memory of rvb pft)

I really wanna rewatch rvb now.......

Asterisk walks into his lab, carrying the robot that was previously dancing in the cafeteria. It is not happy about this.

"LET ME GO"

Asterisk sighs, setting the robot on his desk as he does so.

no can do. i know you don't want to do this but you gotta. you still have exposed wires, you're putting yourself and others at risk.

"DON'T WANT TO TURN OFF."

then you don't have to. it's just putting on a few plates and getting up your self defense and auto-repair systems online. nothing major, you'll hardly notice them.

"..."

with that, Asterisk screws a few plates onto the sides of the robot, along with some on it's legs.

see, not so bad, right?

"...FINE."

and that was the hard part. turn around for me, would ya'?

The robot turns around. Asterisk unscrews a panel on it's back, flips a few switches, then screws the panel back on. After which, he sets the robot on the ground.

got a software update coming in on tuesday, ok?

"DON'T WANNA :("

it'll be fine, promise. you won't have to shut off or anything, just come in, i get it started, and it runs in the background for a few hours. now, you go and have fun.

"OK! :D"
