#im so tired yall

i gotta stop scrolling through the palworld tumblr/twitter search holy shit my brain is rotting.

Palworld did not use AI in it's designs oh my god. the initial trailer for the game dropped in 2021, before AI art generation really kicked off into high-gear, and you can see many designs there that are finalized for the final game. You can look at the original trailer here. No doubt that many other creature designs were also finalized during this time.

Additionally, lets also look at what AI pokemon actually DID look like at the time:

... these look absolutely nothing like palworld designs. palworld designs are very deliberate "pokemon but legally distinct" or "two pokemon mashed together", wheras these are an amalgamation of all the pokemon available at the time. if anyone remembers the melty surreal AI of the time, you know there's no way to ask it to give you a "normal type lycanroc" and have it produce direhowl's design.

I also feel like this whole discourse around accusing the team of using AI for their monster designs does a disservice to the completely original designs in the game? because believe it or not, there are a lot of wholly unique designs in this game! my personal favorites so far being Tombat, Swee, and Caprity.

if it turns out that everything truly was AI generated then that's egg on my face. you're allowed to have your opinions on the plagiarism of palworld's monster designs, but don't go around spreading false information you read online just because it sounds true and makes the game look worse.

Fuck you and Spectral. You're horrible people and I hope you come to an end soon. I expected this behavior from Lucio stans. You're just pieces of shit.

What an odd thing to say to me.

But, anyways. Y'all have lost anon privileges.

Also, I'm a Julian Stan thank you.

"Don't Try" from Hesitant Alien just hits so hard every time.

"Now days, they've been better, I sleep, even deader, I wake up when everyone's gone".

"Get up, get out, and be social, we can't pretend we won't go."

It perfectly captures that feeling of being in recovery, and having a shitty time, but knowing you have to push yourself to get out there and keep improving, even if it hurts. Even when you wanna rot in bed all day, and keep hurting yourself, waking up at noon when everyone's gone - but you're older and wiser now, and you have to keep pushing. It captures the bittersweet mundanity of every day life. Being depressed and in pain, but finding the silver lining, and trying to see the beauty in things. Comforting yourself, loving.

The whole album has this hazy, vintage quality to it, which makes it feel nostalgic, familiar and alien at the same time. And idk if others have caught this, but it references addiction a lot as well:

"Now, lights hurt a little, this night's been a bit of a stretch so I think I might go - just breathe in and blow."

I read this line as a reference to being drunk/hungover and being a shut-in, so when you go outside after drinking, your eyes hurt and everything is disorienting, and you want to isolate yourself. "Just breathe in and blow" makes me picture a breathalyser test.

"Sure, it takes a little mistake, all the capsules you take..."

Also another line referencing addiction, and probably antidepressants imo. Making mistakes in life and trying to learn from them. The lyrics also have themes of finding salvation in love, which is a very common theme in Gerard's writing. The song seems to tell us that it's okay to mess up, to feel depressed, to make mistakes, that it's okay to make it up as we go. That things are hard when you're older too, and it's hard sometimes, but it'll be alright.

"Grey hairs are visible, I'm kinda miserable too."

"Let's give you everything, let's find another ride home. Just give me anything, to sleep or to go."

"Make it up as we go down".

This song is a melancholic, comforting hug. It contrasts pain, suicidality, addiction, with comfort, love, and hope. It's not grandiose - it's about daily life. It helped me get through a lot in the past, so here are my random 3 am thoughts on it.

I'll never understand people who pretend like MCR or Gerard's music is immature and for pre-teens, because this stuff honestly hits harder the older you get. Weirdly under-appreciated. Anyway, stream "Don't Try".

Its becoming clear to me that yall do not know how to talk about people committing crimes and behaving heinously without somehow finding a way to offload the atrocity onto the concept of mental illness, effectively scapegoating mentally ill people.

This is part of the glaring LACK OF ACCOUNTABILITY fascists enjoy.

So glad to finally be home relaxing..Fridays are such long days 😴

Yknow what- Fuck media that names itself after an entire genre- I'm tired of trying to find Cyberpunk genre things and ending up with mostly Cyberpunk 2077, a game that makes me remember hardly anyone actually knows what punk is;

Y'all dont deserve a monopoly on the genre , didn't deserve the folks who crunched in your toxic environment for what couldn't have been enough money.

Take care of people- That is punk! (Legitimately it is!)

If you know of any good Cyberpunk stories- hit me up please.
