Funny how we all just “have to” accept AI as progress even if it’s janky and either has demonstrated no improvements to productivity or outright tanks it, but we never had to accept remote work despite every study showing it improves productivity AND workers lives.

Hmmmmm

I'm staring at them judgingly in doctor who fan

I learned about this abomination like few months ago and I'm still processing
and I'm not quite sure how I learned to read but probably in similar way to you, I read books way before school (yea I did read under the table at school when we were still at learning the alphabet part)

I'm reading this whole convo and wonder how come all academics don't go on rage filled killing rampages regularly (they're too tired?)

ohno, I'm looking at titles and I see some I'd love to look inside of
I wonder if I can send my mom additional list to the holiday book wishlist I already sent (at her request, we're doing book-giving this year)

visuals are incredible tho, and I love the creature design, these elegant curved lines so very different from classic horror crude big stitches, they create scifi, almost futuristic look, without compromosing organic nature, and it goes SO WELL will novel' status in lit history

I finished it last night and I agree with you. I think del Toro's love for monsters caused him to give the creature some closure on the expense of the story and it was really hollow choice, and it was dissapointing esp after seeing how they started movie up north

where is wealthy eccetric who would pay for my food, rent, cool ass studio and all the fanciest art supplies I could want, so I can paint my gay elves and forest trolls in peace

if the try Christopher route, G. G. Kay would have a chance to do the funniest thing ever
(also now I'm once again thinking about maybe selling my copy of famed mumakil-forum-version of sil, sigh)

I would never doubt him in this department!

ohno :( I plan to see it tonight, and I have rewatch of Ken Russell's Gothic in plans as well so it will be there to console me if needed

kinda like my cat who was like "you left me here alone for three whole days with only three people to tend to my needs! I'm not talking to you."
"...but you can comb me"

also I had no idea there was more settings under 'advanced' since it looked like a link to tos or something? so that's why bsky has been warning me of nude art, holy shit

"rude" label? what's next, are we gonna have to ask the mods if we can go pee?

my great-grandma was Jadzia as well

miałum niedawno w STA okazję pojechać "było nas dwanaścioro, mieszkaliśmy w bajorze" gdy Nashirah które dorastało podczas okupacji wyjaśniało czemu zje wszystko

Jadzia Dax situation ;D

cały sezon 3 ma potężny wajb "o kurwa, ale zjebaliśmy, szybko, wracamy do materiału z książek" i sporo z tych kwiatków z 2 musieli wziąć na klatę i wyszło rozmaicie (jak teraz brak Yen znikniętej z planszy i Geralta agonizującego przez pół książki, że go zdradziła), ale dam się miło zaskoczyć

I think about this with AI too-- there is a set of people who don't just appreciate it, but actually feel entitled to it.

And I think it's because they find the actual experience of critical thought uncomfortable.

Which is a feeling they have been taught to experience as unjustly-inflicted pain.
