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

Remaining time: 2 days 21 hours

[odyver]

Question 2/3

How often do you visit or interact with museums/archives (whether in person or online)?

Frequently (multiple times per month)

Often (multiple times per year)

Occasionally (a couple times per year)

Rarely (once every couple of years)

Never :(

Remaining time: 2 days 21 hours

[odyver]

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

under 18, less inclined

18-29, more inclined

18-29, less inclined

30-45, more inclined

30-45, less inclined

46-60, more inclined

46-60, less inclined

over 60, more inclined

over 60, less inclined

Remaining time: 2 days 21 hours

Thank you for helping with this data collection. Please rb for as big a sample as possible!

I'm a firm Miranda and Shepard shipper, but Liara was my first Mass Effect love, and I've always loved the idea of lots of little blue children

Credit for the asari markings goes to @peachyatelier. Turns out it's genetic

It's nice that Ro has amnesia. Now people can tell her absolutely anything and watch her try to figure out whether she’s being lied to or not xD

I’m hyped

The senior crew of Starfleet's most controversial starship, the USS Normandy SR-1.

blurb and crew list under the cut!

I came up with a whole backstory for this AU, but I’ll just leave you with this blurb:

After the media circus around the Cerberus trials dies down and the rogue Section 31 cell has been thoroughly dealt with, no one expects to see key witness Shepard, ex-special forces commander, ever again. Not after she publicly disavowed Starfleet, and not with half the quadrant still questioning her involvement. They especially don’t expect to see her captaining her own starship. And to hire a turian first officer only months after the Hierarchy’s sudden and inexplicable move to join the Federation? It’s like she’s begging for negative attention. The galaxy wants to know: what leverage does she hold against Starfleet brass to make them cater to her every whim? And how long until the crew cannibalizes itself under her rogue leadership?

SENIOR CREW LIST

CMDR. Shepard, Commanding Officer LT. Moreau, Helmsman

LT. CMDR.* VAKARIAN, XO, Chief Tactical Officer LT. ALENKO, Second Officer SPECIALIST TRAYNOR, Communications Officer

*approximate rank based on Hierarchy tier

CPTN. CHAKWAS, Chief Medical Officer CPO WILLIAMS, Chief of Security N/A [INVALID NAME], Acting Chief Engineer ENSIGN T'SONI, Science Officer

I think people would be less suicidal if they were allowed to talk about being suicidal without risk of being sent to the Torture Dungeon

Can’t stop wont stop

"you don't like mpreg?" i don't even like fpreg

[dungeonmastersconsortium]

"Scam" you mean people are fighting back against housing discrimination??? I don't think these people know what the word scam means

Scams are designed to trick someone into giving up money based on lies. This is just.. asking for information then legally enforcing the law??

Fuck landlords

I literally love all of you, but as a Tumblr veteran, Tumblr's main feature is the reblog feature. It is the beating heart of the dashboard and the foundation for a chronological timeline. The For You page here should not be your default setting.

You guys have got to start reblogging stuff you enjoy, especially, specifically gifs and fan art but also fics and fan theories or even hot takes if you're not afraid of a lil discourse. I'm tired of being the first or third reblog for a person's post and then seeing my blog's followers do nothing but hit like, while blogs sit there with no new posts in months or years!

Reblog more stuff please. Thank you, have a good day.

You're not even going to reblog this post are you 🫩

[triassictriserratops]

fandom dies in the likes. You HAVE to reblog.

[whatif-ialreadydid]

Reblog more stuff please! 🩷🩷

*deep breath* If the antifascist (esp. American-centered) art you make or consume refuses to acknowledge the truth that framing this time period as the "sudden rise of fascism" along with its supposed volatility (i.e. "it can't last; that's not how its built") is just a comforting construct to keep white Americans from reckoning with their literal centuries of active and passive participation in this country's fascist, genocidal violence against Indigenous and Black people, your art isn't just wrong...it's worthless. How can you imagine dismantling unjust systems without seeing the blood on your own hands? How do you comprehend the size of the fight for mutual liberation without seeing that the scale of the threat is exponentially larger than your personal experience of the danger of state violence; or is your envisioned win condition only as shallow as the return to your previous sense of safety?

Ignoring the complexities and well-established enmeshment of fascism in Western culture for the sake of simpler stories to inspire rising to this moment in history only builds fair-weather fighters ill-prepared for the rigors of revolutionary action. It also widens the rift between those newly awakened to the struggle and their neighbors that have lived it for generations (and have built and maintained systems of community support and resistance that have protected them for just as long).

If antifascist art doesn't first demand you turn the eye inward, it is only escapist fluff.

Reblog if you don't use Generative AI to write fanfics/original fics or to create fanart/original art.

Reasons not to Reblog

1. "I don't want to clog up the dash."

Fair. That's why there's a queue. Use it so your posts are spaced out and you're not clogging anything. (And if you do clog someone's dash because your hourly posts are too many, then that's on that person for not following more people.)

2. "It's so weird, I don't want anyone to know I like it."

Hello, you are on the cringe website, we all like weird shit, that's why we're here? If others don't like it, they can scroll past it. (Also they probably like it and just aren't telling you.)

3. "None of my followers have followed me for this content."

Then use a tag and tell them to block the tag. It's your blog, not theirs, put up what you want. Again, cringe website; please see #2.

4. "I haven't read/watched (this fic/article/book/movie/TV show) yet. What if it's terrible?"

So? Say it looks interesting and you'll look at it later. And maybe it'll be terrible to you, fine. But it also might be someone else's favorite fic/article/book/movie/TV show ever that they discovered through you.

5. "They don't reblog my stuff!"

Yeah, probably they're saying the same about you. Vicious cycle. Maybe be the one to break it? (Or maybe they don't reblog yours because they didn't see it because no one else reblogged it either. Please see #4.)

6. "I only get three reblogs a day and after that I am not allowed to reblog anything else for a full 24 hours."

Okay, now you're just making shit up.

7. "My reblog queue is already full."

You know you can make that go as fast as you want, right? Also if you're reblogging that much, you don't need this post. Go watch one of those shows from #4.

8. "No one follows me, no one will care, everyone has seen it already."

Maybe no one follows you now, but that won't always be true. Part of the reason you reblog is so that people can find you, and use what you've reblogged before to decide if they want to follow you now. The OP will care if you reblog their stuff; you'll make their day by doing so, and maybe they'll follow you too.

Tumblr moves fast, and there's always newbies. There is always something someone hasn't seen. Be the one to show them, and turn them into today's Lucky 10,000.

9. "I don't want to spam reblog from just one person!"

Yeah, this isn't Insta or Twitter or whatever, doing this is a compliment, honestly. Use your queue if you're that worried, though (see #1).

9. "I guess I just didn't think it mattered."

It does. It really does.

Sometimes we all have quiet days. I can't claim I reblog absolutely everything I should, either.

But please try.

We say we want community; we say we want connection; we say we want to be part of something bigger.

This is the best, easiest way to do that.

If you like it, reblog it. If you think someone else might like it, reblog it. Participate. Build the community you want.

[azriona]

10. "I don't know if the OP wants me to reblog this!"

Yes, they do, or they would have turned off reblogs (which you can do. And if you didn't know that--now you do! Congrats, you're one of today's Lucky 10,000.)

11. "OP made a mistake and used the number 9 twice in their list (or some other mistake), do they really want that mistake immortalized?"

Not particularly but you know what, didn't hurt Spiders Georg any, so I'm cool wiht it.

LIKES TO CHARGE REBLOGS TO CAST

[nondelphic]

i keep telling people i’m a writer but all i do is open google docs, scroll for 45 minutes, sigh dramatically, and close it like i just gave birth

[imissthembutitwasntadisaster]

People will be so mean to teenagers do you literally not remember what it was like to be sixteen. Every time I talk to a teenager I feel I should hold their hands and tell them I think they're one of the bravest people on the planet just for choosing to endure but I don't because I don't want to be creepy.

[soursugarbomb]

Can we be a little less entitled to new content when it comes to fanfics, please?

I saw someone saying that an author's posting frequency is one of the main deciding factors in whether or not to engage with their fics and follow that author.

Honestly, I felt really discouraged. I'm not someone who posts often. Writing takes a considerable amount of time for me. I have work (just last week, I was working 12 hours a day, almost every day), irl responsibilities, and, on top of that, English isn't my native language, so editing takes up extra time. I'm just one person who likes to share their work in fandom spaces and engage with other ppl/creators.

I really don't get this attitude of thinking of authors like content creator machines that ought to churn out work after work consistently, otherwise it's not even worth checking out any of their works. Whatever.
