dream stans here who are multifandom, how do u deal with there being outspoken antis (whether its anything between a loud group to literal thousands of them) in ur other fandom(s) bc i feel like im walking on eggshells and unwelcome solely because of who i like and its beyond shit. i can barely interact with anyone like god i applaud your strength bc im literally about to lose my patience with the p.handom and its been just 5 months 💀

hmm sorry generative AI isn't another trademark use of progress it's qualitatively different the tradeoff isn't efficiency it's your independence

It's kinda funny looking back on old screenshots and edits I made 3-5 years ago because in a way they have changed a LOT yet at the same time also not all although the fact that my old computer could barely handle having FFXIV installed is kinda evident in hindsight lol

I drew this the flare scene and then watched "the making of Guns for Hire" video where they talked about it being a Silco villain song so then I had to draw something for that too

hey i heard something about professor doug... tell us more pls... *bats eyelashes*

(original post)

(another ask)

Some more professor Wreden fun facts:

About 25% of the time, he'll show up to class looking semi-professional. The other 75% of the time, he'll be in shorts and a t-shirt. Even in January.

Most of his classes are upper-division machine learning classes, but he teaches a couple sections of CS 210 because he likes seeing people get visibly better at programming over the course of a term

His doctoral thesis was on some machine learning thing that he still builds on as part of his research

He clearly knows his stuff conceptually/theoretically...

...except every time he tries to demo code for the class he fucks something up and you wonder a little bit how he managed to graduate undergrad

"Five minute coding adventure" is still a phrase he very much uses

His upper division classes are used to this and will just shout out that he forgot the semicolon or whatever else he fucked up

He's very good at explaining his mistakes (and also, on the assignments you get back, your own mistakes) once he figures out that he made them

His office isn't actually in the computer science building, since that's under renovations because it's actually the zillion-year-old math building and they ran out of space in there. Instead, he's been shoved into a random office in the business building

Which is how he met Dr. Parkzer, professor of finance and business operations

They've been friends for 4 years and are still in offices next door to each other (which doesn't bode well for the completion of that building)

About half the time anybody tries to find him for office hours, he's in Parkzer's office instead, working on his laptop and pestering Parkzer with hypotheticals

People speculate on whether he's in a relationship with Parkzer all the time

A couple of the younger instructors/postdocs have a bet going on it

He still streams on Twitch every so often and has a devoted following of about fourteen people who watch him code dumb shit in GTA

He'll take his glasses off to work in his office, leave them there when he goes to teach class, and then wonder why his own slides are so blurry

He has two grad student TA's- both of them also think he's hot

Also he still makes stupid jokes and drops insane lore randomly

He tells the linear algebra lube story at one point and everybody in the room who's taken linear algebra just kinda nods (i was so tempted to do this for my organic chemistry midterm ngl)

He's a fair grader but there are secret extra credit points if you're particularly creative on an assignment or make a good enough joke in class/at office hours

the exchange rate fucks me up honestly on a magnitude i can't quite explain. there's just this incredibly strange dissonance to it all, i guess

Im also playing pokemon colosseum for the first time Ever (fake pokemon fan alert) and I love it. I really, really, really like Wes

[action-not-despair]

ive been rewatching the seven and just wanna say that it is very cute that both penny and riz were different subclasses who eventually switched over to arcane trickster. they are friends and nothing brian murphy or brennan lee mulligan do can convince me otherwise

[softredrobin]

not plot related (well.........) but here's lumen in her nice (first date!) outfit. i wonder who said date is with..................... (rambles in the tags as always!)

Can't sleep, but I'm thinking about FulCrank(crankful? lol) in a silly way, and how it's like, technician x mechanic

Like, Fulcrum's long gotten used to responding to others bringing him "broken" tech with the whole "Have you tried turning it on and off again?", only for it to restart and be fine, because it just needed like, a hard reboot or update or something.

But then Crankcase pulls him aside, because maybe the TVs not working for reasons other than them physically damaging it, and Fulcrum's thinking it's the usual same old problem, so he sighs, and goes to ask the question that haunts his choice of work, but Crankcase interrupts, because of course he already did that.

He already tried restarting it, and checked all the cables, the antennas, and unplugged it a couple times, and checked the connections, and- etc etc. He goes down the list of everything he already checked before giving up and asking for help once he realized he was out of his depth, because, while this isn't his exact specialty, he gets it.

And its like-

Scene: Crankcase explaining everything he already tried, while Fulcrum's optics widen a bit, his breath catches in his vents, careless whisper starts to play somewhere in the background as Crankcase goes into detail about what he thinks could be the problem as a soft light frames his disgruntled expression, and Fulcrum's just like, oh..., he already tried turning it on and off again... I- I wonder if he'd be cool with making out sloppy style after we fix this...?

Idk lol.

They'd compliment each other on the cable and pipe management of the W.A.P's old shoddy computers and pumps. Just them being nerds about stuff like propulsion systems and data collection with eachother <3

Do they always understand and get everything the other's talking or complaining about? Not exactly. But they both bond over all the repetitive or crazy situations where they've had to fix and repair stuff, the thankless work they did to keep their respective stations functioning around them, and then maybe they kiss or something over the W.A.P's shitty GPS
