Currently loving how everyone is making adrian an absolute unit

Like seeing the art of small rockey introducing Grace to Adrian and him expecting like another eridian probably slightly bigger at most.

Then in comes the an utter behemoth

(Bonus points if Adrian is bigger than Grace too!)

[champagnemoon]

body positivity has largely failed because people started arguing for attractiveness and romantic prospects instead of respect and dignity

[carewitchproject]

this is truly the best summary of what all of this SHOULD be about

[pineapple-toastie]

Ong I've ALWAY'S hated the idea of body positivity just turning in to 'everyone's beutiful!' and 'everyone's sexy/attractive! Even with you're flaws!' Because you're not getting rid of the root issue of these not being flaws in the first place!! 9/10 they're completely normal aspects of having a human body!!

Not only that but, as the post describes, someone's worth shouldn't be tied to their attractiveness in the first place, not even minutely.

Absolutely tweeking over how well SFAWTDE and DAWTDE is so well done, like I literally cannot fathom how well it works.

Everything that usually irks me about minecraft ARGs is completely solved. Spoilers for the new video below

Why doesn't d3rlord just disconnect? He physically cannot let his eyes leave his PC for longer than a second without going insane because of the king in yellow flooding his brain with knowledge. Avery? Wants to find d3rlord so desperatly he stays, however starts in creative until he's forced out of it and continously nearly flat out leaves but it caught at the very last second.

Why do they bother with the puzzles? They don't, if it takes too long they just break the blocks.

It's just Minecraft! Why don't they- They do, D3rlord uses glitches to bypass a door, makes avery look in their inventory so they don't see him push him off. Texts the link in the chat so Wifiees who's watching will see it not Avery.

The threat is only in Minecraft! It's not, there's a direct threat to the world not just the players giving further reason to stay instead of leaving.

Why is the King in Yellow himself in Minecraft? It's stated he needs a clean mind, like Avery's, why wouldn't he pick a video game mostly played by kids/teens/young adults?

Why did they record it then? Whats the point of posting the videos? Because d3rlord doesn't want to be forgotten, and Avery won't let him be forgotten either.

Like holy shit there's like no plot holes to poke here, wtf.

[pineapple-toastie]

Reblogging because I JUST remembered the insane strats d3rlord used in part 1, like bro knew someone was there from the GRASS SPREADING TO ANOTHER BLOCK. And in the newest one found the clue from knowing that shulkers don't spawn, you can only do that shit in Minecraft crazy king lord 10/10

If I had a nickle for everytime someone used a video game as a medium for telling an engaging, lovecraftian story inspired by literature within the past few years and for it to be some of the best adaptations of these storys; I'd have two nickles, which isn't a lot but strange it happened twice huh?

Gonna do this at some point.... I swear.... -_-''

[theodddinosaur]

My theory is that they're going to try and bring Caine back, or at least kinger will.

When you delete files on a computer, they usually get put in the "recycling bin" for a few days or until you manually delete them yourself (at least thats how my computer is anyway). What if Caine is just trapped in that "recycling bin" (could be the void or the cellar)

[pineapple-toastie]

I can defo see this, especially considering his final words were admitting to the other's torturing HIM. They probably never thought about it like that since none of them are programmers and Kinger is too insane most of the time to connect those dots. Hell, the reason why Kinger wanted to fix him opposed to purposely deleting him was probably because he KNOWS Caine is only doing what he's programmed to do.

SO- To sum up, the begining of the next episode could possibly be the crew realising that them AND Caine have both been accidently fucking things up for either party (one by never giving positive feedback, and the other by making bad adventures) and trying to figure out a way to bring him back without the murderous side.

I have no clue how they'll do this however, the computer Kinger was one glitched out... seemingly on purpose? And with the implied second AI Caine 'ate'(?) in the begining of this episode still being completely unknown, not to mention we don't even know if Caine could even be brought back at all, there's no telling what direction the episode will go...

Praying my boy comes back tho T-T you can't make him admit to being tortured only to kill him :'(

[pineapple-toastie]

TADC SPOILERS

OK, just watched the episode so things are HOT!

So Caine was accidentally deleted, and where do deleted file go? To the recycle bin! And since we know video game/program concepts such as out of bounds, glitches, object collision, and the like are physically present within the circus/adventures, and Caine has 'deleted' things before (GummiGoo, Abel etc) that means there a high chance the recycle bin is also present.

Also deleted items aren't ever fully deleted, atleast on physical hard drives, the real life space where the data is written upon is marked as free and when new data comes is written over.

So there's a high likilyhood Caine is currently trapped in the recycle bin... awaiting to be written over.... with everything else he deleted or discarded....

Hey I wonder what else has been 'discarded'...

Oh dear...

[manourfi]

Being a crafty person and making a bunch of things often prompts people to ask "oh wow did you make that?" And like, the short answer is: yes I did, but the long answer is: well, no, the pattern isn't mine, but I did choose and buy the fabric/yarn and sewed it together/crocheted it/knitted it myself. I used a reference for that drawing/painting, I didn't come up with it myself. That ceramic piece was insired by a poem and a painting made by different people. What I'm trying to say is, everything I make requires other people to make their own thing first, and then I get inspired by them to do my own thing. So I can't really call anything truly mine, because really it's just a bunch of inspirations and experiences of others (and me) put together by my hands. Does that answer your question

Very true, my favourite cookie recipe is one I've adapted from someone else

[squeakitties]

wikipedia no longer being anywhere near the top of search results when looking up anything feels eviscerating

[ichorandpride]

#they really said “you can’t use wiki as an academic source-use our garbage AI that’s even less reliable”#and you can’t even opt out of it

no but you can FORCE it away. use ublock origin and copy paste the blacklist i made into the filters to be able to remove the bullshit AI overview that google forces. it also removes youtube's forced ads (at least until they fix it)

you can also use the ublacklist extension and use this blacklist of AI image generation websites to curate your google image results

there are ALWAYS ways around stuff. it's just a matter of looking into it and asking around

Kind of funny that AI is now allowed for academic research but Wikipedia still isn't.

[pineapple-toastie]

Fuckin awesome

[pineapple-toastie]

Bro why is this the first thing on the Battena tag 😭😭😭

[hostilecandle]

If ANY of yall EVER do this shit to me, im deleting every single fic out of spite.

If I ever catch one of yall doing this to another author and I know youre a follower of my work I will block you personally on every platform

None of yall are the fic police. I DESPISE genai. I think its an insult to art, humanity, and the planet itself. But aint not a single fucking person here qualified to pick apart a strangers fic looking for a gotcha moment to make yourselves feel superior. If you think something is ai you can ask the author (most are proud of the ai use and will just tell you straight up) if they say yes you have your answer and can warn people. If they say no and you dont believe them you block and quietly keep it between you and maybe a close group of friends. Spreading misinformation is DANGEROUS. And NONE of you doing this shit are anywhere near qualified to do it.

THIS GOES DOUBLY FOR ARTISTS.

[hodari-pavels-good-boy]

Posting this here from my main too bc I feel that strongly about it

You dont get to witch hunt and scour peoples work just frothing at the mouth hoping someone messes up so you can publicly humiliate and gang up on them. Fuck genai and every single poser and lover that uses it but if you are not 1000000000% certain that something is made with it you shut. the. fuck. up.

Pathetic loser behavior on display here

[mintedwitcher]

I'm about to get mean because this shit? this pisses me all the way off.

"hurr durr these very common writing practices are SUPER OBVIOUS AI TELLS!!!!!!!!!! obviously this is an AI invention and not the result of AI being trained on THOUSANDS OF REAL FUCKING STORIES!!!!!!! we're all very intelligent!!!!!!!"

I hate yall. I hate yall for fucking ruining fanfic with your goddamn motherfucking AI obsession. "ooh there's em dashes!" YEAH REAL WRITERS USE THOSE. "there's long paragraphs!" YEAH BECAUSE THATS HOW PEOPLE WRITE STORIES.

we're not "writing like AI" - AI is writing like us, because it fucking stole from us in the first fucking place.

I've never used AI in my work, not ever, but guess what, my fics are ALL written like that. long paragraphs, long sentences, em dashes and hyphens and other grammatical tools, because I fucking know HOW TO WRITE.

quite frankly, if you think these things are "genAI inventions" you're just telling the world that YOU DON'T READ ENOUGH.

[musashi]

saw someone say that flipflopping between british english and american english was a "tell" and just did the haha im in danger chuckle to myself. girl im american and i was raised on neopets! i'm not keeping this shit consistent!

[starlightshadowsworld]

This! All this! Also are we forgetting how many fics have been scrapped by AI software? Cause I do and I know mine have been so no shit the two can seem similar times they stole from US!

[pineapple-toastie]

To add on to a already big ass post, many fan fic writers are either new to writing or sometimes don't even speak english as a first language. Those 'tells' you speak of? just a normal mistake or error that comes about with writing something that has way less pressure and admitedly standards than an actual soon to be published work.

(no insult, this is a rather good thing because fanfic is free and you should never be pressured doing something you're meant to enjoy especailly for no monoatary gain lol)

To sum up, people aren't perfect beings, hell you'd call them AI if they were, they're gonna make obvious mistakes, misuse em dases, spelling errors, localisation errors, etc. Especially since, again, no one is paid for writing fan fic (typically), most people including me don't have beta readers. OFC there'll be errors!
