hi!

my name is not beatrice or beatrix. i do not go by 'bea'. please refer to me as one of the following:

bee

birdie

or, with the prefixes:

bubble

bubblebee

bubblebear

bumble

bumblebee

bumblebear

this is @bumblebearr's fic/fanart & original writing and art account! I will be reblogging all my merlinmicrofic fills on here from bumblebearr, among other things.

AO3: bumblebearr; I post mostly BBC Merlin fics, but occasionally I stray out of my comfort zone to write PJO/HOO/TOA fics, or, once, Epic: the Musical fics. speaking of interests:

fixations as of late:

BBC Merlin

the Riordanverse (i haven't read TSATS and most likely never will, but I do love Mark Oshiro's works by themselves <3)

EPIC

the Odyssey/the Iliad

The Buried and the Bound Series by Rochelle Hassan

again, please don't refer to me as bea/beatrice/beatrix! beeaatrix is fine as it is the name on the account, but otherwise please refer to me by the names above <3

they/them pronouns. no my legal name is not Beatrice or any variation of it. also, the art in my header is Camille Monet Sitting on a Garden Bench by Claude Monet, and my profile picture is a replica of it which I had to do for school!

I lost my sketchbook, but this was part of a larger collage piece I had for Mordred and Arthur. There was supposed to be a Morgana between them, and technically the one between them is not the one I had in mind, but there is a Morgana between them, at least.

This is literally what people are talking about when they say AI will be used to mainstream widely held bigotry. LLMs are trained on frequency and probability -> straight relationships are more well represented in the dataset -> straight pronouns and terms become the "correct" normal.

This is a form of backdoor bigotry from both normative facts (there are more straight than gay relationships) and well represented bigoted beliefs (men are superior to women).

Combine this with the mass of people inclined to believe (and being encouraged to believe) that if AI says and does something it must be correct

This is what’s known as Algorithmic bias.

It’s when AI produces discriminatory outcomes as a result of being trained on data that is biased which results in these AI systems replicating and reinforcing those biases.

That very well could be why Google Doc’s spellcheck is regurgitating this kind of bigotry because it’s literally what it was trained to do.

Side note this is why BAME folk are so concerned about the rise of facial recognition for criminal investigations. Cause not only is facial recognition less accurate for us than it is for white folk (cause they make up the majority of that trained data) but also because the police systems are institutionally racist.

Which is being reflected and perpetuated by these AI systems I mean people are already being misidentified and wrongfully arrested because of this.

What kills me is that Shane IS selfish and self-centered in ways that make him a really interesting character, because he's laser focused on hockey and everything he does is in service to that, but being closeted and afraid to come out, especially given the canonical, textual, on-page threats he receives about it IS NOT SELFISH. Repeatedly asking his partner if he's okay and being rebuffed and choosing not to push IS NOT SELFISH. Being consumed by anxiety about his career to the point that it's distorting his relationship with food IS NOT SELFISH.

As the author of a popular "Shane is selfish/self-centered" post Yes!!! He's self centered because he's a pro athlete and the world revolves around his fitness level but he's a good partner and he's not selfish for not wanting to come out given the very real consequences

When I talk about Shane being selfish / self-centered it's more about like...his entire world being his career and to a lesser degree his parents and his three friends. And later his career and Ilya. He's just not paying attention to literally anything else, and he's very determined to be the best

Hello! I have finally uploaded Radio Silence onto YouTube! I will say it is a one act so it has been greatly condensed and I had to Americanize it (annoying I know but I had a month and we couldn't do accents in a month lol) other than that everything is basically the same though!

I hope you guys all enjoy it. It was a wonderful experience to work on!!

And thank you to @aliceoseman, @chronicintrovert for all the good wishes and for writing my favorite book allowing for this amazing opportunity it was a dream come true!!

now see in a hunger games AU if Shane & Ilya are Katniss and Peeta then Hayden is Gale and Svetlana is Johanna and Finnick is Rose
