I'm not sure if I seen any posts going around discussing the recent VERY DETAILED (and honestly kind of poetic in how vitriolic they are) AI generated spambots on AO3.

I feel like I just need to spread the word, because these guys are NASTY. But they aren't real! You can tell that by the fact that they don't mention a fandom, a character, or anything even remotely about the fic itself.

Just wanted to put it out there in case anyone gets one of these and it crushes them. Never stop writing. Writing and story telling is one of the oldest ways of connecting with other humans. It's a gift to this world. Keep writing!!!

hatemail today is so lazy, back in the day you had TheFoxFamiliar leaving 13k words of custom hate filled drivel in installments on every chapter of your fic on FF.net and it was a badge of honour. Haters these days are pissweak, impotent, can't even hate properly, gotta get a robot to do it for them. Pathetic.

Yayyyyy comission i got to do for @ghostlyglimmer!!!!! I had so much fun with the lighting and colours and i think u can tell <3

I love that Jules Verne asked the question "What kind of person could circumnavigate the world in 80 days?" and decided that the answer was not a groundbreaking explorer or genius inventor, but a guy who's really, really, really obsessed with train and boat schedules.

[oqmemphis]

my final paper for my CS degree was literally "how can we algorithmically optimise for the fastest possible circumnavigation route on commercial flights?", which incidentally required me to adopt a very good working knowledge of what flight options are available at what times (and also led to me accidentally memorising several hundred airport codes)

[oqmemphis]

incidentally the fastest possible route seems to be about 51 hours, if you're working from 2022 schedules like i was. if you use current schedules and are very optimistic about how quickly you can transfer between flights, you can maybe get it down to around 48 hours (also known as 25 millivernes).

The very best thing about tumblr is that you can make a post about a 154-year-old novel and get responses like this.

[earhartsease]

this had us wondering who first coined the term "circumnavigate" - and its first recorded use was in the 1630s, because people were sailing around smaller stuff long before they realised "this is a big ball we could go that way and come back this way"

oh and in terms of frequency of use, it peaked as a word about 20 years before Jules Verne wrote the book, so it must have been something in the air that inspired him

Pup interrupts soccer match, gives interview.

[the-stray-liger]

The commentator narrating the pup’s moves with the ball is AMAZING and I’m crying

[loseinadaydream]

“(…) right, but he decides to kick the ball. He gets close, and who grabs it? The Friend(dog)! Yes! A pup got into the field. He’s tied to it. He puts it under his paws and shows what football was missing in the Gasometro (field’s name). The [team]’s men want to grab him, but they cant! The Friend has his eyes on the ball. He runs to find it again. Yes! He bites! He kneads! He wants it close! He gets lost, he’s so happy! Castro (player) wants to kick his Corner but he can’t. He tells the pup “enough, enough, go over there”… however *commentator laughs*, there’s the pup! When he puts it on the floor, [the dog] goes again for the ball. And of course, as any skilled man, wants it all for himself. A bit of an over-eater, this pup. And he clearly has shown conditions / talent. [The team] found the way to the goal thanks to the Pichicho’s (little dog) essential input…. who, of course, as any protagonist had his place at [the tv show].“

*camera switches to interview where dog barks and mounches on the reporter’s mic (who allows him do it)*

I’ve been watching Argentinean football all my life and I can confirm this is the best to ever happen on a match.
