So we know to a certain extent that our beloved mysterious W.D. Gaster is behind the experiment we're (un)willingly participating in.
But how did we get to it?
We know that he was the Royal Scientist before he fell in the CORE. We assume that he also died in there. What if the CORE was a high-flux, Schwinger-level non-linear quantum cavity continuously driven by a conscious Determination field, say one of the souls that had determination extracted from it. The CORE’s magic waveguide was biased by a non-zero vacuum expectation value. as he fell into the central conduit, his own magic and monster soul and consciousness introduced an unplanned, secondary conscious field into the feedback loop
Maybe that caused a phase splitting, unraveling him through heat. Schwinger-level electromagnetic field decoupled his mass from localized space-time coordinates.
Maybe he didn't "die"/"fall" in the normal sense. Maybe his being got spread across an infinity of amplitudes, got himself flattened across the entire spatial domain
Maybe that caused him to "glitch out" of undertale due to this causing like a basic programming error. Like he got booted out of the game so to say. He was a variable that had its pointer deleted
What would be even more fun is that his files would not be deleted, but I assume if he would end up in an out of bounds (since the game can't find him to kill him anymore) he can technically directly impact the game. Think of it as being able to edit the code and input himself through fun values. Maybe he manages to take it a step further by completely creating deltarune, but only capable of making the game "happen" through us. He maybe thought it's an experiment, but he created a whole new reality that somehow loops itself back to undertale (sans' don't forget drawing in the hidden lab)
genuine writers getting wrongly accused of using ai because of witch hunt and proper grammar/structure in their works must be what being a woman in the 1600s who is wrongly accused of being a witch because she can read and is intelligent feels like
And people demanding proof of it constantly??? Like it's tiresome. Wish we would have some centralized way of getting an internationally recognized seal of approval or something that the thing we created is not ai... Like I shouldn't have to sound completely illiterate to let people know it's not AI.
I've been thinking for the past few years to start my own fanfiction/own work hosting. 0 telemetry only tags and recommendations based on what you like. Also recommendations based on like an outside reading history (i.e. if you read Cool Book and you note it on Storygraph, if you import your reading history you'll get recommendations based on the tags)
I've got the basic things like writing/reading chapters (with some caveats that I'm sure I can figure out later, like people editing the same file at the same time) and now I'm at the comments, socials. No google account link, no Facebook, nothing. Just plain old email > username and (encrypted)password, with a 2FA FORCIBLY. Like genuinely, 2FA is a godsent.
But yeah. I want to at least get the page live for dopamine purposes. Even if it's a WIP and nobody can create an account just yet (because why would I risk people losing their data when I want to do a wipe :') )
As soon as I figure out what I want to do with socials (i.e. allow people to comment and discuss stuff, though I have some display issues with replies of replies of replies of... You get it...) I'll try to raise an invite to a v1, but I find it terrifying to do as I'm certain things will break, and I don't want to pay a QA team as (ofc) I have no funds for this yet
Did I mention I will make this entirely AI free? I'm actively researching ways to identify AI work purely from syntax as this will be part of my MVP, I did find some research on it during my studies, but alas... I lost legitimate access to said research upon graduating.
Well. Back to my boring 9 to 5 and then back to the drawing board for the rest of the day. See you in a bazillion years when I have an update
I finally started writing again after 12 years! This time it's not fanfiction (🍋 or not) but an actual book with an actual plot!!! The best part is that I'm ACTUALLY mindmapping everything at the beginning.
I'm so happy I have the energy to write again. Even if it's in a train.

Just watched the TADC finale! That was so much fun! Despite popular belief, nobody was stinky. Nobody was loud. Sure, some left a bit of a mess behind them, but 80% of the seats looked clean 🫧
This is an amazing step forward for online animations. Steps towards a new generation of entertainment. If this will not shake the core of industry standards, I don't know what will.
sorry for romanticizing the mundane but the fact that laughter is infectious is so incredible to me. like yeah it's just a reaction to stimuli but the way it feels to hear someone laugh and feel yourself compelled to share that joy is really something. and it's so simple and requires no skill but it's so special and important to me.
I need a polite and effective way to say "hey your heart is truly in the right place and your anger is often righteous but I think sometimes you’re getting recreationally mad about things that are frankly not worth the amount of energy you’re spending on them, and every time you do this you're driving yourself slightly more insane with nothing to show for it," and then I need a way to broadcast that message through a loudspeaker to roughly 30,000 people at once, and THEN I need a time machine to send that message to my past self lol. and maybe a second time machine in case past me tries to be clever and sabotage the version of me who comes through the first time machine
"You're not wrong. You're valid. I see you. They're not worth it. Punch them and move on" 😭 if I heard that at 14 I think my whole mental would've been different
Here's some of the notes, starting with the things multiple people brought up:
SHRIMP COCKTAIL:
banahbanah: #flashback to that one fic where Peter Parker frets about drinking shrimp cocktail because of the alcohol
generaldeliciousness: adding: what a prawn/shrimp cocktail is
#why is your character turning it down because they're under 21 #do you think prawn cocktail is a cocktail #this lives in my brain rent-free constantly #the rest of the fic was so normal #and good enough that i'll still re-read it #but bro
And then many, MANY, people wondering if this was actually authour mistake, since Peter really would do this!
POMEGRANATES:
zhajhassa: #haha where's that post that was like someone describing someone eating a pomegranate but they ate it like an apple
thornhands: #once someone wrote persephone biting into a whole Pomegranate #had to stop and stare at a wall for a minute

violetfairydust: #i once read a fic where the flight time from london to seattle was 3 hours
purekesseltrash: One time, in a fic set specifically in Des Moines, IA, two of the characters casually drove 20 minutes to the ocean. The memory continues to delight me. I want to know where that author thought that Iowa was.
This is the worst because I used to write the best smut BEFORE I even had sex. After? Mild. Vanilla. The experience has ruined my writing abilities. HOWEVER WRITING ABOUT LOVE??? SIGN ME TF UP
ao3 is not changing anything by the way! some people just want them to change for some reason. my guess is that these people just don't understand how the site works and refuse to actually learn how it works, so they blame the site because it's easier for them that way.
