alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.

we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

please rb for larger sample size!

Question 1/3

What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?

under 18, AI is a net positive

under 18, AI is a net negative

18-29, AI is a net positive

18-29, AI is a net negative

30-45, AI is a net positive

30-45, AI is a net negative

46-60, AI is a net positive

46-60, AI is a net negative

over 60, AI is a net postive

over 60, AI is a net negative

Frequently (multiple times per month)

Often (multiple times per year)

Occasionally (a couple times per year)

Question 3/3

If you saw a museum was using AI in exhibits, marketing, research, etc., would you be more or less inclined to visit that museum?

under 18, more inclined

18-29, less inclined

30-45, more inclined

30-45, less inclined

46-60, more inclined

Does anyone else remember one of those slideshow fanfic videos of Sonamy and at some point there's a talent show or something n Amy, Rouge, Blaze and tikal I think sings a song-

I thought of the song but for the life of me cannot remember what it was ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ

mild thought dump but just last night for me I've been having dreams of moments where I feel stressed and just been looping them in my mind because I realized what made me think before that I was a people pleaser even though my mom didn't see why, and it's mainly because I never voiced the fact I don't like having multiple options thrown at me very quickly, I don't like the fact I have to stay somewhere different for longer than an hour, I don't like how loud it gets sometimes when I'm out and about, and the reason why I never voiced them is because it's supposed to be normal...

the first dream I got about this, my family n I were shopping in a big store, but it eventually got so overwhelming that I just, started to cry loudly, during that I became lucid of the dream and I could've stopped it, focus on something else, but, it made more sense to me to let it continue as long as it needed, I was stressed and upset, and I needed some way to get it out, and although scary, I've been teaching myself to just, feel the emotions and let them be expressed, even if it means being loud and crying...

it's healing I think

"haha Glisten's whole thing is being vain and vanity because he's a mirror!" okay but what if that's the point...

what if Glisten being vain is the point because if he isn't he runs the risk of losing himself completely to the point he doesn't know his own face...

what if the reason his mirror ability/trick tires him out and confuses him so much is because it's unnatural to him, that it's not an innate ability like Astro's ability or Connie's ability... and what if his actual innate ability is something like mimicking the voices of the other toons or reflecting something about the other toons that doesn't define Glisten the way being vain does...

Glisten has autophobia because if there's no one to reflect, who is he, but that autophobia gets amplified by the idea of him being a copycat so much that no one sees him...

[madcatdaderpydrawer-blog]

If it’s not his innate ability how can he do it?

[b1t-the-glitch]

learned ability, same way Shelly's learning sewing even though she doesn't particularly have a speciality with it, plus in rp mode Glisten has a note about practicing the ability repeatedly, so it's entirely possible the effects we see of the ability, mainly the confusion 3, was much worse which is why I included the possibility of it tiring him out before he got better enough to "only" get confusion 3

The Town of GardenView - A Dandy's World mini fanfic?

-----------------------------

A.N: I have no idea if I'm ever gonna explain this written part or if I'm even gonna actually commit to writing this at all... I already have one Fanfic stuck in the WIP realm I don't need two... (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠)

anyways... enjoy this... blurb I guess...?

-----------------------------

Vee was tensed, convinced that Dandy had her sit on the cameras as some sort of sick punishment. Watching her best employee being so desperate and scared, it pissed her off, she would've even gone as far as to say that Glisten was her only best friend in the whole damn town and Dandy was forcing her to keep quiet despite knowing a mutated version of his damn dog would be down there.

Vee's grip on the monitor was nearly breaking the glass and she let out a dark growl in her security room. "YOU SICK FUCKING BASTARD!" She yelled as she violently grabbed the novelty tagged Dandy Plush and threw it hard against a wall of spikes Dandy himself had implemented without her knowledge for no apparent reason.

Panting heavily and staring at the plush being deep into the wall of spikes, stuffing spilling out at all points, she let out another low growl, "just, to think... everything would've been so much fucking better if you weren't so damn obsessed with keeping it 'as it was built'..." Vee grumbled spitefully, standing up properly and moving her hand through her hair.

Truthfully, Vee has tried multiple times to either leave the town or convince Dyle to let someone leave the town just once, but the conductor had promised loyalty to Dandy, meaning she and everyone else had no other options but to stay as secret experiments for the town mayor...

It was stupid, Vee, Shelly nor Sprout didn't even know why Dandy was doing the experiments in the first place... yet of course the mayor only told his favorite spa owner Astro...

[b1t-the-glitch]

update, gonna expand this into a full on fic...

Dandy's World mini writing

feat. Rodger and Glisten

------------------------------

half written in the middle of a unexplained plot

------------------------------

Rodger watched as Glisten mirrored him in pose and tone, listening to his rant as he turned his focus back to the files he was holding.

He knew Glisten did it involuntarily, it was a common topic between them when they were alone anyways, Glisten's appearance.

After all, there isn't much else kids would've taken a living mirror for if not something that was great at mimicking the surroundings and those around it, even if Glisten only ever did it for a single episode, his debut episode, for barely five minutes.

Even now, three years after Arthur and Delilah had left and shut down GardenView, most of the interactions Glisten had with the other kids still lingered in his mind and made him hate what had come naturally to him.

he hated it.

...

he hated it...

Glisten hated how natural it felt to mirror and nearly embody a toon in all but appearance so why was he mirroring the one toon whose entire role was to-?!

Rodger's hand quickly grabbed onto Glisten's wrist just before the mirror had a chance to grab the one folder neither Toodles nor Glisten himself had ever looked into.

Rodger didn't want to needlessly scare Toodles with the idea of a seemingly incurable infection, but Glisten?

Could Rodger really trust Glisten with knowing what he himself had learned? Nevermind how through the events only he seemed to be through he learned some things about him that Glisten never brought up at all to him...

Can we just like… think a little more on the more interesting, yet seemingly rarely shown traits of entities created by a human’s memories and/or emotions, especially one created from multiple peoples memories and/or emotions…

cause like… yeah this entity torments you with your own voice and memories you don’t want to remember but… the thing’s created from humanity… what if it has moments where it calls or mentions a parental figure it logically doesn’t have but still does because of people’s subconscious desire for that sort of kinship… the entity that torments you still offers a hug it doesn’t understand the purpose of when it feels something is far too off and unfit for its work…..

tbh something I’ve been considering more recently is making either a group chat or a discord server specifically for learning Japanese, and what I mean by that is that it’ll primarily only have Japanese messages and stuff besides a few areas for english but I’m unsure about it…

black holes form when a star collapses by the way

[b1t-the-glitch]

Can I throw in my thoughts? I’m going to throw in my thoughts because this came to me like two days ago

as you mentioned blackholes are from when a star collapses, which is, being simple with the explanation and winging it, usually when the self-gravity becomes too much for the star. Given how often Tsukasa is compared to a star, the question becomes what is his self-gravity? I sort of think it’s two things that act as the self gravity, his desire for everyone’s attention/smiles, and the method acting.

the first thing is obvious in-of itself, Saki was too sick to play, their parents had to work overtime more frequently to pay for Saki’s medical expenses and the only time he ever felt like he had either of their attention/smiles was the first time he’d seen a performance, nudging him into wanting to be an actor to continue seeing their smiles, eventually warping into the attention-seeking habits he sort of formed.

But the method acting is a more recent development, I personally don’t read the event stories but I did do “The Phoenix in the Distant Sky” and I couldn’t help but feel like even with the method acting he might not have enough for it. I might just be reaching too much with the method acting, but given how it works, you sort of need to stop and wonder when is actually a good time to stop and be normal? And for Tsukasa, it’s entirely possible that “normal” never existed because of his upbringing, he didn’t remember the original reason he wanted to become a performer, who’s to say he doesn’t remember who he was before he became a loud and overdramatic theatre kid? hell, who’s to say he isn’t constantly thinking about his next role and act? so entirely focused on delivering a performance that’ll make everyone smile, that he’s probably constantly performing in his mannerisms… both to entertain but to also mask the loneliness that has been growing since he was a kid

again I might be reaching too much and looking too deep into who Tsukasa is as a whole but that’s my thoughts
