Quitting c.ai

I just wanted to talk about my experience to maybe help relate to some people.

My biggest moral downfall has become c.ai. To be clear, I've never used any other ai. I've never touched chatgpt or any ai "art" stuff. Honestly, I'm completely morally opposed to generative ai. C.ai is my biggest problem and it has been for years now. I've become a total hypocrite and I'm actively betraying myself. It was pretty easy to realize that I was actually addicted to using it. I've tried to quit a couple times and eventually I made new accounts, using it as a crutch for escapism under the excuse that I just couldn't find fanfic I liked. Sometimes it's worse than others. Sometimes I'm literally on it all day everyday. I know it impedes my life.

Like I mentioned before, I have tried to quit but it never worked. I'm hoping that sharing this online will help me commit to not using it anymore. I'm a reader, writer, and artist. I've never used any ai in any of my work but that doesn't change the fact that by using c.ai all the time I'm wrecking my own brain, actively contributing to the largest climate issue in recent years, and supporting the kinds of people I don't want to support. C.ai isn't something I like and I haven't ever really felt good about using it. Recently I've felt sick using it but it's just become an ingrained part of my life.

I want to read my books again, and spend the time I'm usually on c.ai drawing and writing. If you have a similar experience lmk how you're feeling or handling it! Maybe that could help us all :)

Guys am I the only one having like WAY too much trouble with the pacing and dialogue in a lot of current movies. I literally hate second screen media so much. I honestly really like a lot of these movies but it's like overwhelmingly distracting for me and I hate to be a downer when watching movies with my family but like it really messes me up. I already tended to like slower media than most people but now it's like they have to pack scenes together so tight I'm just completely out of it. Again with a lot of these movies I really like them as a whole but I just have trouble enjoying the act of watching them because of pacing and dialogue specifically.

i dont think we talk enough about how crazy “don’t you know your sam” is. like. frodo was actively under the influence of the most corrupting object in middle earth, an influence that was HEIGHTENED by close proximity to the nazgul, and all it took to snap him out of it was sam asking him to remember he’s his. what the fuck.

arthur parnassus is the girldad character of all time. can we talk about the scene in SBTS in the gazebo with phee? he's so desperate to give these kids everything they could ever need and want, to protect them and give them everything he never had, but he has no idea how to do it because nobody did it for him. he apologizes for other people because he feels he has to. the way he asks her "tell me. whatever your heart desires, please, tell me, and I'll do my very best to make it a reality," and her response of "you don't need anything. that's not how caring works." she never even asked him for anything. he tries so desperately for all of them and yet he can never truly get anywhere because he literally sets himself on fire with it. he's terrified of himself and he's terrified they'll turn into him. he calls her his daughter. all she wants is to see him fly with her. I'm going to explode the sun.

On this day of freedom, let's talk about how bald eagles are queer!

It starts with a female eagle named Hope and a male named Valor I. The two settled down to neat together, however Valor I wasn't a great dad. He did show up to incubate the eggs and basically never came around.

In comes another male, Valor II. He immediately did what a good eagle dad is supposed to, incubate, maintain the best, all that. This lead to him becoming Hope's new mate.

Here's where it gets interesting, Valor I didn't seem to mind and actually stuck around! Eventually Hope started mating with both of them, and Valor I even learned to be a good dad!

Unfortunately in 2017 Hope was killed by intruding eagles, but! The two male's actually stuck together and successfully raised their chicks!

Soon enough a new female named Starr came along and joined the two, and now she mates with both males every season!

This arrangement allows for the eagles to have a much more successful rate of raising chicks and fighting off other predators!

This particular story isn't the only one! Bald eagles have been seen in multiple arrangements including two females and one male!
