Nye's Musings

Hello, I'm Nye! Mainly spend my days thinking about Batfamily & other comics, FFXIV, danmei, and various miscellany. Very chatty about Tim Drake these days, so feel free to strike up a DM to share the love! 💖 (pfp by Leelee_ahn)

falling asleep during the day: slipping away on a clouds so easy

falling asleep at night: I heard an ant gasp downstairs

happy 10 years in prison, my fellow farmers

i can only describe the children of hurin experience as being like watching someone you want to see survive and be happy carefully navigate a minefield, except they step on every single landmine

like oh my god bruh. however understandable each misstep is (which is incredible storytelling btw -- it really is a complex situation), it's so frustrating and heartbreaking to watch it all happen.

the downfall of pride, regardless of how good your heart is or how noble your intentions 🥀

[landscape-suicide-deactivated20]

It is really funny how much some tumblr users build their understanding of what is taboo in a degenerate immoral fashion vs what is taboo in a subversive radical fashion exclusively on aesthetic appeal so they’re willing to drastically alter their moral stances based on what media they’re obsessing over currently

[landscape-suicide-deactivated20]

Blogger obsessed with posting about sexual cannibalism and toxic doomed yuri complaining about incest fetishization… you’re two Ginger Snaps gifsets and a Flowers in the Attic excerpt away from trying to recreate Single White Female with your mutuals

do you ever find something that is so funny and you want to share it with everyone but it also requires 18 layers of context spanning things like. 90s anime. aviation history. europop. canada. in order to even remotely understand why it is so funny

[yashmel]

I still find this thing incredibly funny (and incredibly stupid simultaneously)

Walking around Valinor, Fëanor ran into Melkor, who said to him:

— Mae govannen, mellon Fëanaro! You'll never guess who I ran into in Mandos.

Fëanor considered himself way above talking to ex-cons, but his curiosity got the better of him:

— Who?

— Your mom! — Melkor burst out laughing and vanished into thin air.

there are corners of this website where the year is still 2013. and sometimes, on beautiful nights when the veil is thin, you can find them . if you know where to look

[reibub]

thinking ab colourin dis

[akindplace]

yeah…these past few days (realizes it’s actually the whole year)…have been…really…hard

[nyerusnova]

Finally after years of putting it on My List™ I randomly decided to pick up and start the Silmarillion.

Loving it so far but like with tears in my eyes you cannot get attached to ANYONE in this bitch like okay I guess I'll cry myself to sleep every night till I finish this!!

“Madeleine Silarjuangat” This is the last large solar system I made. I created it for a custom order so I personalised it with my client who offered it to his wife for her birthday last year ♥️ This embroidery is called “Madeleine Silarjuangat”, which means “Madeleine’s world” in Inuit. My client lives in Canada, he wanted to name his embroidery after his wife, the Inuit language has a rich history of stars and legends about life above. Thank you again Kirt! I hope to have more opportunities like this to create more unique and custom orders, it is always very interesting and challenging for me to have to work directly for a client. “Madeleine Silarjuangat” Hand embroidery. Unique piece. Custom order. 32 cm diameter. DMC embroidery thread, cannetille, Swarovski crystal beads, 24kt gold-plated beads, stone beads and glass beads on linen. Wooden frame. https://www.etsy.com/fr/shop/OphelieTrichereau I take custom orders. #embroidery #broderie #planets #solarsystem #universe #scienceart #spaceart #embroiderer #theearth #thesun #sun #mars #jupiter #saturn #cosmosartwork #handembroidery #ophelietrichereau #solarsystemembroidery #sunartwork #soleilart #planetembroidery #universeartwork #astronomyart #dmcembroidery #astroembroidery #astronomylovers #spaceembroidery #cosmicart #outerspaceart #galaxyembroidery

I just watched a video about students getting their papers falsely flagged for using AI, even when they didn’t, and the advice was things like, “Leave in incorrect grammar,” “If you’re quoting something, don’t copy and paste it, type it out manually because it leaves a metadata trail that you used the copy/paste function and that's a flag,” “Write in the cloud so there’s a version history,” and the one that really got me, “if you find you write in a manner that can sounds too robotic or professional and it gets flagged, go to the writing center so a writing tutor can help you sound more humanly flawed,” and like what the actual fuck.

Like I get that is practical advice, but people should not have to fucking do that. They should not have to train themselves around not sounding like AI, when AI only sounds like that BECAUSE it was trained on them.

I spent so much of my life learning how to write, I shouldn't have to unlearn that because some computer algorithm learned from me.

[taahko]

i think some of you dont like narratives or stories or characters i think you just like fanfiction tropes

[taahko]

protagonists can and will be sexist, racist, insensitive, cruel, stupid, etc, especially towards the beginning of a story. these are called character flaws and they are a surprise tool that will lead to narrative fulfillment later

[mapswithoutwyoming]

And sometimes "narrative fulfillment" doesn't mean "the character overcomes their flaws" or even "the antihero is punished for their flaws"! sometimes it means the narrative says "wow was that fucked up or what? anyway i'm rod sterling"
