Don’t mind me just screaming over the Jon namedrop in TMAGP 42

me and my friend spontaneously decided last night to order Smajor's Chromia hoodie (one for each of us) so we could split the shipping fee. I had not thought about it prior to her saying “you wanna know what I’m looking at?”

I would like to share my three favorite genAI-critic videos that I cannot recommend enough

You are a better writer than AI. (Yes, you.) - josh (with parentheses)

This is quite long but it is worth it. It talks about what writing actually is and what makes it human and why ChatGPT can't do it.

AI Slop: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

This has been going around on tumblr for some time but I'll put it here anyway. It's about the massive amounts of ai slop that have been flooding various social media sites.

Künstliche Intelligenz: Für euch reicht’s

Okay I have to admit this one's German but it's actually okay to watch with English subtitles, I checked. It puts into words really well what makes the rise of AI content so insufferable and why it isn't a magic machine.

writing advice is like: if they have to kiss to show they're in love then it's bad writing!!

when like. heteronormativity exists.

when a general audience will literally do anything deny the existence of queer people.

when it's "they're like brothers!" or "they're best friends!" always.

when we as queer people are sick of subtext and coding, when we want outright representation, the kind that cant be denied.

I found this german leftist rock song that I really like but then i went to look up the music video and it was completely ai-generated.

like bro you cant sing about being anti-establishment and then do this. you know you didnt have to do a music video. or you could have just filmed yourself singing the song. you could have paid someone on fiverr for an animated lyric video. anything.

funny how i have no desire or motivation to go grocery shopping, but I DO have desire and motivation to go to ALMOST THE EXACT SAME PLACE to buy yarn and print out photos

Get To Know Your Mutuals - Tag Game

I was tagged by @cheeto-flavoured-pasta, thanks:) This is their post.

I'm tagging @probably-just-existing and @lyriclight

Origin of username?

Well I was originally called writtenamongthestars since I joined tumblr to be a writeblr and I was always a big space nerd. I changed it so that it could be abbreviated to some sort of nickname. One of the nicknames for Alexander I came up with was Lee, and I was looking for matching phrases. I picked "leaving this place" because escapism is all I do and kind of what I go to tumblr for. Funnily enough, through this username, I adopted the nickname Leevi.

Food you'll always order?

Pizza, probably. Depends what place we're ordering from. I mostly have one specific food for one specific place. There's this one place near me that I'll always take a cheese bacon burger from.

Fave book/show/movie?

I think favorite book is still Six of Crows.

For show... not stranger things anymore for sure, yikes. I'll admit something: I love Gilmore Girls. It doesn't fit at all among my other interests but it's seriously the show I watched the most, I can quote whole passages and memorized the episode titles of most of the first four seasons.

I'm not a big movie person, but I really like Knives Out. And no, I haven't seen the new one yet.

I'll just quickly add my own category here to mention that my favorite fiction podcast is Magnus Archives (who wouldve thunkin).

Song on repeat?

I actually have a playlist called "soundtrack" where I put all the songs I'm currently listening to a lot, or new songs I want to listen to more and don't want to get lost in the haze.

Currently it features songs such as "All You Get Us Confetti" by Bears in Trees, "Only You" by The Platters, "Build It Up" by Franz Ferdinand, "Scotty Beam Mich Hoch" by Marteria, or "KIndle A Flame In Her Heart" by Los Campesinos!

But actually the song I listened to today a lot is "Diskrepanz" by Das Lumpenpack.

Last thing you hyperfixated on?

*sighs* not a good time to bring this up. nope. not good at all. yes I did hyperfixate on Stranger Things after Volume 1. I loved the show for years. yes I could write essays criticizing the last season.

Phone wallpaper?

My lockscreen is an illustration of a window where rain is falling outside, my home screen is a minecraft with shaders picture of a snowy forest.
