I don't think it's supposed to do that

What's your take on Odysseus's trauma and recovery back in Ithaca?

*looks at all the comics I made*

Lol but really, I realistically expect it to be severely rocky. He’ll have good days, mostly bad days, but what keeps him grounded is of course his family, you know?

But imagine losing your entire fleet under your command...

...only to come back to an entire population of thousands of people, expecting that you will lead them.

What if he fails again?

Defining and Understanding Loss Functions for Machine Learning | HugeCount

The way we approach difficult problems is also evolving as a result of machine learning’s widespread adoption. The idea of a loss function in machine learning model. In this guest post, we’ll dive into the fascinating topic of loss functions, discussing their role in machine learning, the many kinds of loss functions, and how they affect the training process. The goal of a loss function is to quantify how well or poorly the model is performing. The goal during training is to minimize this loss function, which is achieved by adjusting the model’s internal parameters, loss function in machine learning, […]

I think I might have missed a post or something so sorry if like a billion people asked this before but what happened to Thespius? Did he just up and leave or did the grief eat him up?

I tag all of my posts on LaL au under the tag (#ggg Love and loss au), so if you worry you may have missed something you can always check with that tag on my blog! Though in this case you haven't missed anything! I purposefully kept it vague On exactly what happened with Thespius since in the Au nobody really knows what happened to him. The gods stopped seeing him right after Cliff's death because he shut himself inside his own realm and refused anyone entry; and Cliff never went to investigate where Thespius went when he disappeared because he assumed he upset the god. Only a week after Cliff last saw him is when Huzzle is finally able to enter Thespius's realm to investigate, finding the revived human.

Though I'll let you in on a secret. He never left.

Grief and guilt didn't just eat him up. It swallowed him whole.

It's been months and I'm still absolutely baffled by the time I was touring apartments and I asked to see the kitchen, and both the realtor and the landlord looked taken aback and one asked me in complete surprise, "You cook?"

I am a human being in my mid-thirties what the fuck are the other options there

not to continue making The Guilt my brand™ but the thought for today is: what it'll look like if john does get his own body.

and not about like, the overwhelm of suddenly having all these sensations and physical needs and feeling every emotion not just as a concept but as a swarm of signals hitting flesh-and-blood nerves. or about the strangeness of the new distance between him and arthur. there's all of that, obviously, but beyond that. after that.

specifically, like.

if it's a brand-new body. or even if it isn't, tbh, to some extent. i'm just thinking about what that looks like. it arrives healthy, right? so it, what. it works fine. it works well. does everything he asks of it, more or less. stand and walk and carry things and, and, and. and he wakes up rested and full of energy, and nothing hurts. it's so...

...so unlike what he's become accustomed to.

because we've generally accepted that arthur is gonna have to Experience Consequences for all of the (gestures at everything), right. so he turns and looks back at what he's leaving behind, and... maybe he realizes it right away, maybe the point of comparison makes it so much more obvious. or maybe he's too caught up in everything else that's going on, and it doesn't even cross his mind. maybe they're walking away from the ritual site or wherever, and arthur keeps falling behind, keeps having to ask him to slow down. or maybe it's the next morning and he's up and out of bed, and wow, why does arthur always make this look so difficult–?

maybe it's a gradual realization. that things are just easier, now.

for him.

and he has nightmares, and baseless anxieties, yes, but that's still not the same. one or two nights of missed sleep don't completely take him out, when he's kept awake for hours on end it's because his mind is racing and not because his body's picked that evening to remind him that he should be dead so many times over. it's not right. it's not fair.

he was there every step of the way. they went through that hell together, them against the world, hand in fucking hand. he was the witness to every horror, every act of violence or cruelty. and he fought, he dragged them both out alive.

so why does he get to escape unscathed?

A podcaster I listen to just spent an episode describing what his neurodivergent burnout is like for him, and it’s the first time someone’s experience has actually really resonated with me. It affirming and concerning lol

vierapril day 24--fear

"it wasn't until alisaie fell in the ghimlyt dark--when they were carrying her body back to the forward camp, and further still to the rising stones--when the fear truly set in. when the loneliness rose up to fill the gaps where the scions used to be, and the crushing weight of it settled in.

I really wish modern aus would acknowledge that there's no universe where Scara was planned, the closest human equivalent to his messy origins imho is 'Ei went on a year long bender to try and cope with her sisters death, ended it with a baby and no clue who the father is'

[bougiebutchbinch]

you'd think the worst things about this would be the pain and the visible deformity and the loss of function but NOOOOOOO it's the getting shorter

One of the interesting bits of trying to resume working on the game after so long is looking back at my ancient Draft Placeholder versions of an image from 4 yrs ago trying to remember what the hell I meant back then, to hopefully interpret it into some more final (ish..) form of the same thing .. making slow progress lol
