i was actually born as a CD but a wizard turned me into a human to teach me a lesson

We all agree, right?

AI to write your novel is wrong

A bargain with a demon to write your novel is okay

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Only if you specify in the contract that the demon can't use chat-GPT

[athenadark]

I've been thinking about this - and why asking the demon is also a bad idea

Tartini was a composer and violin teacher and no one respected him, he was generally broke, and he started having weird dreams in which the devil asked him to teach him violin

despite being catholic tartini agreed - although everything told him this was a bad idea

so he taught the devil violin in his dreams and when he had taught him everything he knew the devil offered him payment, he played an original composition in his dream

Tartini woke up weeping and struggled to write it down

we have a historical version of "couldn't remember the greatest song in the world, this is just its tribute", and the song he wrote down made him "Sonata in G Minor, aka the devil's trill" it's usually played by 2 violinists because it's evil difficult,

now imagine you make a deal with the devil to write your novel, he writes it but only lets you read it in a dream and you have to transcribe it from memory the next day.... 150k of the best prose and plot you've ever seen in your life and you have to remember it

chatgpt is evil, but that's just mean

This brings a whole new element to my understanding of Devil Went Down to Georgia

today I found out my mother doesn’t know what dandelions are and now I’m wondering what other strange secrets she’s been quietly harboring

[krystal-prisms]

Where do you live that you don’t have dandelions?

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

we have dandelions EVERYWHERE, they are basically our State Weed, it is absolutely impossible that my mom has never interacted with a dandelion before, this requires further investigation

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

So after extensive interrogation I have an update:

my mom is in fact aware that dandelions exist. she temporarily forgot the name and there was some miscommunication.

the truth is actually weirder

she’s aware dandelions look like this

she is familiar with this flower. she knows the name of this flower. she declines to believe, however, that these are also dandelions

she does not believe these are the same plant. I tried to explain, and she thought I was either misinformed or lying. so I asked her what exactly did she think the yellow ones were called?

she answered, with complete confidence: Daffodils.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

gosh I enjoy this website

[authoratmidnight]

For comparison, this is a daffodil

[quietlygrousing]

See, folks in the southern US will tell you up and down those are buttercups, actually.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

i don’t think so? i’m southern and buttercups are what we call these things (much tinier)

[maejacrezz007]

Wait I thought those bigger cup ones were Easter Lillies???

[fractiousrvt]

This is an Easter Lily. It is an actual lily and therefore deadly to cats.

[blood-trip-god2]

They’re marigolds and I know a bitch when I see one!

[delphinidin4]

This is a marigold:

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

….we need to start taking the phrase “go touch grass” more literally. go outside and examine a flower i beg u

[lorienlady]

In the UK these are also Marigolds, but I don’t think anyone is going to confuse them for any of the flowers in the above thread

reminder to the world that everyone (except people with aphallia, or those who had theirs removed!) has a phallus, whether you call it a clitoris or a penis or any other name. it came free with your fetal development!

its not fucking "food noise" it is HUNGER!!!! you are HUNGRY!!!!!!! like a ANIMAL gets when its body NEEDS FOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[genderkoolaid]

your ancestors did not resist starvation for thousands of generations for you to take a medication meant to stabilize blood sugar in people with diabetes, because you have been gaslit by the diet industry into thinking that feeling hungry is some unnatural dangerous force you need to "quiet down" in the death march towards eternally increasing thinness.

[mrs-tired-kittycat]

I understand what this post is getting at, but food noise is a specific term used by doctors and registered dietitians to describe constant intrusive thoughts in the context of eating disorders. It's not at all about suppressing hunger cues. Quieting food noise is an important part of eating disorder recovery and is used to help people gain weight and get more comfortable with eating. There are plenty of diet culture buzzwords to hate, but this isn't one of them.

[genderkoolaid]

unfortunately diet culture very much has been using this word regardless of its origins or how it is used in the context of eating disorders. i have seen an influencer who is literally getting paid to be in ads for a company that gets people GLP-1 subscriptions, talking about how GLP-1s are so normal basically everyone is on them and if you "need something to quiet the food noise and suppress your appetite" you should use the service she's shilling to "feel good about yourself" and get on GLP-1s.

its good to know the actual context of the term! but in this case people literally are using "food noise" to describe being hungry and using it to encourage fatphobic and disordered eating behaviors.

[genderkoolaid]

also like look. on a general level i do not care if You Personally want to lose weight, or even if you want to lose weight through drugs, or hell! even through straight up disordered eating! i mean i care in the sense i care about people in general, but i am generally very pro-bodily autonomy, pro-harm reduction, and i really like Emi Koyama's writing on self harm and disordered eating and respecting them as coping mechanisms, if harmful ones, and respecting people's right to cope with our fucked up society how it works for them personally while also staying committed to societal and political change. i made this post while i was angry at having seen this ad for the millionth time so i did not make my point in the best way possible.

that being said. GLP-1s are being pushed because society is fundamentally fatphobic and causes the deaths of fat people (and people of other sizes chasing thinness) and there are people who are disgustingly rich off promoting fatphobia. the rise of skinny obsessiveness can be DIRECTLY tied with authoritarianism and fascism. & like, i think people should be allowed to do heroin if they want but that doesn't mean i need to give a lick of respect to Purdue Pharma or its sales reps and doctors who lied about the addictiveness of opiates to make bank off of people with chronic pain.

please get your fucking head on straight and understand why it is so disturbing to see Trisha Fucking Paytas telling people its so cute and trendy and easy to take drugs to kill their sense of hunger and get skinny by giving money to yet ANOTHER CORPORATION PROFITING OFF OF FATPHOBIA. "doing xyz will make you stop feeling hungry, so you can lose weight without dealing with the discomfort of starving yourself!" is a CLASSIC part of disordered eating, this is not unique to GLP-1s, and god forgive me for being a little pissed off this way of thinking is being encouraged by a popular Youtuber on every other fucking ad break i see. i know Your situation is different and Your situation perfectly justifies all of this, but can we for just a moment think about fatphobia on an systemic societal level? perhaps?

it never fails to drive me crazy that hollywood has supposedly churned out tons of "anti vietnam war films" but none of them ever have any vietnamese characters who are allowed to speak. and then you can turn on a ww2 movie and the germans get to talk and talk and talk!
