It's past my bedtime and my brain did the synthesis thing and assigned the playable paths in Honkai: Star Rail each an analogous Gag track from Toontown

Destruction <- -> Throw/Squirt

The Hunt <- -> Drop

Erudition <- -> Sound

Nihility <- -> Trap

Preservation <- -> Lure

Abundance <- -> Toon-Up

Which leaves Harmony which is like. SOS cards and Unites.

And I haven't played Amphoreus yet but based on the description, Rememberance is. Doodles.

Ough. Lots of Toontown. Now Star Rail and bed

(I did two mints and then a CFO and then another mint which was definitely a lot but now I have teleport access and another promotion! which means I'm close to the laff boosts at 15 and 20!)

I hate when you catch yourself having a thought that hints at deeper insanities than previously imagined

If you're ever worried about whether your writing is too self indulgent, I just want you to remember that Sharknado had 5 sequels. I'm only partway through watching Sharknado 6: It's About Time, but already they've traveled through time and ridden a pteronadon into a Sharknado so they could use the magic teleportation portal inside of it to travel forward in time to King Arthur's time, where they are currently battling a Sharknado full of fire-breathing dragon sharks with Excalibur, which is a chainsaw sword that calls lightning. You're fine. In fact, be a little more self indulgent if anything.

@todaysbird some very normal bird photos I cropped very normally :)

Image IDs below the cut!

Nine bird photographs, each cropped (and in one case tiled) to look menacing. All of them are real photographs, not ai!

Top left: Two seagulls, one illuminated in the foreground, the other in the background out of focus and in the shade

Middle left: A seagull framed up against the left side of the framed, highly zoomed in on the bird's neck so only their eye and bottom corner of their beak are showing, on blurry dark background

Bottom left: A seagull's pale yellow eye and white head sticking out from the top right corner of the frame against a blurry light background

Top middle: A seagull's open beak and part of its head, backlit against a blurry background. The seagull's beak takes up the top two thirds of the frame, pointing down to the bottom edge.

Middle: A duck in the dark shade looking at the viewer against a brighter water background.

Bottom middle: A white seagull (juvenile) on grey concrete ground. The image of the seagull is triplicated in a repeated tiled photo collage, arranged in a mirrored half-hexagon pattern.

Top right: A seagull's beak and part of its face, with tight focus on its yellow beak, on a blurry greenish-brown background. A shadow is cast over most of its beak. The bird takes up the top right corner of the frame.

Middle right: A backlit seagull on a dark blurry background, glaring directly into the camera, cropped to show only the right half (viewer's left) of the bird's face.

Bottom right: A white and brown speckled seagull (juvenile) with dramatic lighting from the left side. The right side of the gull is in shadow. The image is cropped so the bottom of the gull's right eye (viewer's left) eye is barely showing at the top of the frame. Fun fact: this particular gull mewed rather than squawked :)

Hey, you reblogged that AI post and I was surprised to see something so mean on your blog. "If you cant write unassisted, fuck you, youre a disgrace to the community." Is that really something you want on your blog?

Just in case this isn't a spam message:

Posting AI-generated content to a platform intended to be an archive for writers is not appropriate use of the platform. On a platform intended for human creation, it is rude and inappropriate to clog search results with AI-produced content which often plagiarizes the work of human authors.

Use of generative AI is also horrible for our environment, leading to massive waste of fossil fuel energy and water. We should not be doing damage to our planet for the sake of generating (robot-produced, often plagiarized) fiction, especially when the joy of fiction comes from the creation and emotion of real people.

Rather than giving a prompt to a generative AI, people should consider attempting to write their own work, or asking another writer from the fandom if they would be interested in writing it. Anyone who is capable of typing a prompt into ChatGPT is capable of writing a story. The first attempts may not be amazing, but that is true of any skill, and anyone can improve with time and practice - and while ChatGPT may give you big returns in your time, it doesn't give you practice, growth, or creativity, which is where the joy of writing should come from.

I think it would be incredibly emotionally fulfilling to hit someone in the back of the head really hard with a shovel
