YOU PEOPLE HAVE A STRANGE IDEA OF WHAT IS OKAY TO SAY TO STRANGERS

[stealingpotatoes]

Ok kind of a stupid thing but here goes

We know cal uses blasters all the time, do you think he tried/would try to teach the other jedi to use a blaster with a lightsaber because, you know, why wouldn't you?

I imagine Ezra being on board since his first saber was also a blaster, but what about Ahsoka who knew Obi "blaster's are uncivilzed" Kenobi? I imagine cal would have a heck of a time trying to convince her to learn

cal and ezra would try, but i don't think the main obstacles would be luke and ahsoka's OWN attitudes...

Your parents are not "narcissists". They're typical authoritarian assholes who treat you like their property because society allows them to.

Your ex boyfriend is not a "narcissist". He's a typical misogynistic douchebag who treats women like shit because society allows him to.

Your boss is not a "narcissist". They're a typical classist dipshit who thinks workers' entire purpose in life is to generate profit because society allows them to.

And even if they happen to be a "narcissist", that's not what gave them the power to get away with abuse.

So stop blaming mental illness and start blaming society's normalization of abuse. Stop acting like someone has to have a mental illness in order to do something cruel when ordinary people have been doing atrocious things since forever.

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

it sucks that the overwhelming majority of medical messaging around salt/sodium is "evil poisonous substance that you're definitely already eating way too much of," because like. you do still need it. (trust me, as a POTS-haver, I've had to completely rewire my own brain about salt.) and you need more salt when the entire northern hemisphere is hot enough to fry an egg on. ever tried sucking down the recommended 64oz of hydration per day entirely as water, only to find you're peeing constantly without any of the purported benefits of being "hydrated"? assuming you don't have another medical condition that causes frequent urination, your body probably needed more salt/electrolytes to be able to hold onto that water and make use of it. if there was ever a time to keep a sports drink/pedialyte/etc within constant reach, it's when the heat index is 110°F/43°C.

whichever ad exec at Geico came up with the phrasing "up to 15% or more" needs some kind of award for concocting one of the most meaningless strings of words in the English language. all it guarantees is that the number is either lower or higher than 15%, inclusive. up to 15%... or more. a bladeless knife with no handle.

False Face Fawn 2nd in my Glass Animal Mask series!

The initial design had glass antlers but they looked too bulky and didn't make sense for a fawn to have grown adult antlers so I replaced them with blue Lily of the Valley flowers. I'm particularly happy with how the white flowers on her back looks like the white fawn spots :D

Owl is up next!

As always, the hours long process videos, HD Image, and PSD file will be DMed on Patreon.com/c/Yuumei
