“You two are bound to one another. You always have been … and you can’t run away from what you are. No matter where you go, your feelings for her are going to follow you.”
“The story of Solas and the story of the Inquisitor are tied.”
i love in fanarts when you can clearly see if they romanced the chara/find them hot vs when they didn't,,, it's so fun
All hail the OTP ☺️❤️
"I am here, walking the din'anshiral with you."
This single line - exclusively said by a romanced Lavellan to Solas - does something surprising - it creates a canonical path of the journey this Lavellan has undertaken.
The line carries the sense of a difficult path. I'm not saying other Inquisitors haven't experience suffering, but this is the only dialogue that directly acknowledges the nature of the road traveled by Lavellan specifically. And what is the nature of that road?
There is very little information about the din’anshiral in canon other than it being a journey of death - but death of what? Solas’ own words imply that walking this path is a dangerous one and will transform the person:
“I walk the dinan'shiral. There is only death on this journey. I would not have you see what I become.”
Will this involve a spiritual or metaphysical death? Will this be an erosion of the self, of losing identity, morality? Is it a physical change? However one interprets this sentence, the words are implying that journeying on the din'anshiral is painful, destructive and altering. And it's the path Lavellan walks.
All of this to ask the question to fellow Solavellans:
How do you interpet the din'anshiral for your Lavellan? What does this mean for them?

heck yeah y'all :)
the christian veneration of the lamb has always been terrifying to me in ways i can’t explain
here’s this figure that is vulnerable and easily abused and what’s admirable about it is that it doesn’t fight back and it doesn’t try to defend itself and it’s suffering is noble because it just sits there and takes it. pain is beautiful when you surrender to pain, suffering is godly when you don’t question or try to protect yourself and survival is ugly… like it is just me or is anybody else’s fucking skin crawling rn!!

Copyright class actions could financially ruin AI industry, trade groups say.
Further, some authors may never even find out the lawsuit is happening. The court's suggested notification scheme "would require class claimants to themselves notify other potential rightsholders," groups said, overlooking the fact that it cost Google $34.5 million "to set up a 'Books Rights Registry' to identify owners for payouts under the proposed settlement" in one of the largest cases involving book authors prior to the AI avalanche of lawsuits.
If you're an author, please use this database to see if you could qualify for that sweet GenAI lawsuit money.
Millions of books and scientific papers are captured in the collection’s current iteration.
I have never ever ever in my life asked someone to blaze my posts.
But if you want to throw me some pennies blaze this. I want ALL OF THE AUTHORS to know that they have the opportunities to get some sweet sweet GenAI lawsuit money.
Like to charge. Reblog to cast that Anthropic will have to pay out the ass.

i think this whole thing with richard siken right now is proof that queer youth are so far removed from the aids epidemic and the consequences it had on queer elders. for them aids isn’t a lived experience, it’s not something they went through, the perception of it now comes from media and it’s seen as this navigable, preventable, even curable thing instead of a systemic attack on queer men that wiped out hundreds of thousands.
our queer elders are so low in number because in the mid-90s 1 in 15 queer men had died in the epidemic. doctors refused to touch them. men were dying in secret and begging their friends to break into their houses and erase the evidence that they were gay so their families didn’t know. they were dying alone.
richard siken lived and lost through this and poured everything he went through, his pain, his loss, his ability to love, into his poetry and to see people making a mockery of it now, to see people— queer people, at that— trying to ridicule him for being bothered that his work is being decontextualised to apply to a ship is so, so disheartening.
I've seen a few comments now like "but without chatGPT I don't know what to make for dinner" or "but character.ai is vital to my mental health" and those are not arguments for genAI. They're signs that you need to sort yourself out.
An adult human being should be able to decide what to have for dinner. Yes, some days it's rough and you don't wanna, but the point is, you can do it. And if you can't, you can learn. Hell, make post-it notes with dinner options, stick them on a dart board, and on days when you really can't decide, throw a dart.
You'd really rather put these decisions in the hands of an AI? As in, a company? And you don't see the issues with that? You don't see how easy that makes it for companies to manipulate you, influence your choices and your spending and your entire life?
And if your mental health relies on talking to a robot about your issues "because it listens and cares" - no, it doesn't. It can't listen. It can't care. It's lying to you. It's parroting phrases said by other people in similar contexts. It's an elaborate predictive text machine.
And again, you're just giving all of this information about yourself to a company. A company that wants to make money and likely has no compunctions about selling your data. You're trusting a software run by a company. And you don't think that'll be used to manipulate you? I've got a bridge to sell you.
What you need is actual human connection with other humans. And if you don't know how to connect with other humans then it's time to learn. Start by caring about other people. Take a genuine interest in them. Listen to them. That's how you connect. Not by treating others as entities to dump all your issues on or monologue at about your boring life. Sure, character.ai will put up with that and humour you, but there's literally nothing genuine about it and you will never ever learn to make actual friends.
Relying on genAI for any of this means you'll never learn, in fact you'll get worse, and if genAI ever goes away or you find yourself without access to a computer/phone/internet or the people running chatGPT or character.ai take down the website or put it behind a paywall, you'll be completely adrift. You are handing control of your life over to a piece of software run by a business. Instead of developing skills and independence you're just handing control over to someone else, someone who by the way does not care about you, someone who's only here to make money.
"But some people need--" to stop infantilising themselves, to start taking responsibility and control of their own life, to realise that they have agency and power, to learn that agency and control are not the same as blame and guilt and that someone trying to help them reclaim control is not trying to blame them for their situation.
People, yes even people with your exact diagnosis or background or medical history, were living and making decisions and dealing with their issues and going to therapy and learning and coping for millennia prior to 2022. As in, before genAI was even an option. You can do it. Trust me.
