Reblogging again because I got an anon last week whining cause they did this to one of my unfinished series and the bot killed Y/N so now they want ME to give them a happy ending. Like. No. Suffer, bitch.

AI is the death of creativity. Anyone who does this to my stories and is stupid enough to brag about it will be blocked from ever reading my work again, AND I'll let everyone on tumblr know that you do this. We'll see how much fic you get to enjoy when every author blocks you forever.

Fic is a gift. I've said it before. Don't shit all over your lovingly handcrafted gifts, m'kay? This should be fucking obvious, but apparently for some of you it's not.

[monalyssa33]

I used AI to rewrite a fic I'm almost finished with and it was total crap. I will always stick with real writers for my fic.

reblog and put in the tags: how can people from your country tell what region you’re from ? ( ex: the way you pronounce certain words, superstitions, specific behaviors etc. )

i personally do lateral tripod. dynamic tripod is the "proper" way and i believe most common, feel free to correct me.

[monalyssa33]

I do lateral quadrupod naturally, bu I also do dynamic tripod because my 3rd grade teacher was intent on making me write that way. 😑

someone did write a book about this! It’s called ‘Invisible Women: Exposing Data Bias in a World Designed for Men’ by Caroline Criado Perez. It talks about exactly these topics and some more. 

[bitchesgetriches]

Seconding the book recommendation. It’s excellent and really made a difference in how I saw the world.

Yeah so the Big Think is literally owned by big oil. They’re making shit up so people feel too exhausted to fight for any change. Ignore this kind of environmental nihilism, all it does it help the rich avoid change.

Let’s be real. If little girls’ knees, shoulders, and clavicles are a problem for male teachers, you don’t have a dress code issue. You have a pedophile issue.

I think it’s really important, for non-Vancouverites, that you know some additional layers of the joke to this, because this shit’s got history:

One of our parks has an abstract statue in it of someone reclining.

In Nov 2012, an artist made a sign as a joke, “Dude Chilling Park”, which looked exactly like our official Parks Board signs (except for the official park boards seal). 

The Vancouver Parks Board removed the sign but, after a whole lot of petitions, they put in an official one a year and a half later, also “Dude Chilling Park”, but now with the proper seal attached.

 Fast forward 7 years later. We have horrible floods. A barge washes up on Sunset Beach and gets grounded there. It has yet to be removed.

The Vancouver Parks Board, unprompted, adds a “Barge Chilling Beach” sign.

…Also, they announced this by tweet:
