Just watched Adam Conover (of Adam Ruins Everything) make such a solid point that I think we should spread far and wide. Yes, having AI write your emails is lazy, sure, but people love being lazy. We need to really emphasize that sending AI emails (or using AI responses on social media, or publishing AI flyers, or or or) is rude.
It's rude. You're making someone take their time to read something you couldn't bother to write. You're telling them they were so unimportant you couldn't be bothered to actually take the time to say something yourself. And frankly, you're lying about it while you're at it.

obsessed with star trek repeatedly writing themselves into a corner by creating alien races that are supposed to be The Bad Guys when that explicitly conflicts with their previously established notion that no group of people is inherently good or evil.
first it was the klingons—they’re originally supposed to be this cruel, bloodthirsty, war-obsessed people—and then tng comes along and it’s like wait no maybe war and violence is a part of their culture and actually ties back to ancient traditions and philosophies so we have to be woke about it.
hey these are the ferengi and they’re supposed to represent everything we hate about capitalist society; they’re greedy, scheming, profit-obsessed, and they look like ugly little trolls to emphasize how much we fucking HATE capitalism. oh wait fuck here comes deep space nine and we have to recognize that they’re PEOPLE. okok what if the pursuit of profit is actually part of their culture and ties back to ancient traditions and philosophies. so we have to be woke about it.
this is the borg, they’re a hivemind race of cyborgs who have no sense of individuality and their only motivation is assimilating people into their society. they want to assimilate humanity and we are completely defenseless against them because their technology is eons ahead of our own and they’re incapable of being reasoned with. oh sweet we have a borg prisoner this is the perfect opportunity to commit genocide against them. fuck actually we can’t commit genocide we’re woke and communists and in space.
hey these are the cardassians, they’re part of a cruel and vicious empire which is supposed to be a representation of fascism and authoritarian regimes, they’re a cold, bloodthirsty people with no sense of empathy or compassion, their society literally references 1984 on multiple occasions, and they’re known for the insanely cruel and inhumane methods of torture they use against their prisoners of war. we hate the cardassians…….. except, here’s a cardassian kid who grew up on bajor, and……. fuck. he’s a person. now we actually have to consider his humanity. and being racist is actually……. bad.
this is the jem’hadar, they’re genetically engineered soldiers who have no sense of individuality and only live to defend the state. they’re all born addicted to a synthetic drug that’s manufactured by the state and administered by their masters—this is how they’re kept subservient. they’re ruthless and powerful and they’re incapable of being reasoned with because their only motivation is violence and killing. so we should kill them all, right? FUCK….. what if they’re actually people. goddamnit. now we have to consider their humanity.
hey these are the romulans. hey these are the founders. the list goes on. i just find it really interesting
(answering the phone) yes? (pause) right. okay. (pause) I see. (deadpanning the camera) we have to find māui. we have to get māui to beat up the sun again we have to slow that fucker right down
In the adventure of my silly Epic x Flight Rising crossover, it’s funny to me that in all of Epic, the songs I’ve had the most trouble planning an animatic for are Survive and Charybdis.
Maybe not That weird, it’s just funny to me. I would have expected one of the bigger climax-y god-focused songs would be a bigger headache, but I have fairly good ideas for all of those
The main problem with Survive and Charybdis is just: What dragon do??? Need to cast a dragon breed for both and??? Prorblem :(
For Polyphemus, both breeds I’m considering (Vigil/Dusthide) simply do not have club-gripping hands. So what do with interpreting the very clearly mentioned club.
A Vigil is now the most obvious choice, due to cyclops. But they definitely don’t have any sort of club or club-wielding capabilities due to chronic No Hands, and before Vigils released, I had cast Polyphemus as a Dusthide…I was going to do something like making his wings blend into his body, so when he’s in attacc mode, he just flings those out for clobbering time, and also starts hitting people with tail, and make them call that a club lol
And for Charybdis….??????? Not a clue. I’ve considered skipping the Charybdis fight entirely, but that feels like cheating.
There is a chance that a new Ancient breed will be released that would fit well. I think I need to just hope for that :’) Something that’s either all mouth or all tentacles lol. Bonus points for also being aquatic, but I can adapt it if not
Fortunately, in the grand scheme of making animatics for each song in order, it’ll be At Least a couple years before I actually need to think about Charybdis. Polyphemus is a little more pressing.
A delightful challenge all around, but a challenge nonetheless
