Apparently some people still need to hear this so: using an 'ai checker' is still using ai. If you are feeding someone's fic to one of these checkers, you will still not be sure their fic is ai because they are not 100% accurate, but you can be 100% sure that you are using ai. For fic. Furthermore you are doing the work of an ai scraper for them. You are, personally, feeding the machine. There is no actual excuse for using an ai checker on fanfic as a hobby. YOU are the problem.
If you think a fic is ai, mute it and move on. That's it. That's all you do.
my dad gets on the computer for 5 minutes and he already manages to unlock internet explorer’s unholy twin and pull it out of the depths of hell you know what fuck this shit

Concept Art of the Iron Lung Creature
Molly Brown, the Creature Concept Artist, has revealed her final designs of the Iron Lung creature, which she calls an eel and said in a comment that her name is Elli.
"First look of the eel and the very first concept I got to work on for Iron Lung! This was the final design, after a few iterations and crazy jaw ideas. She's a thing of beauty and I was absolutely stoked to have the opportunity of bringing her to life! Thank you so much to Mark and Amy for trusting me with this amazing creature.
More will come of other concepts I had the chance to work on, including rejected designs, unused ones, and other subjects."
Here is the fanart where she commented about her name for the creature Elli.
EDIT TO ADD NEW IMAGES: Molly Brown shared some unused designs for the monster eel. "Here's some unused designs for the blood eel! The first ever rough is the first image, already featuring the skulls merged with her face and the vein gills. The second idea was a combination of two human faces, which, when blurred or blasted with light, was supposed to better mimic the face of an actual creature. The two eye sockets at the center were made to be a big nasal cavity. The second idea also had the start of the eel's tail being made up of fragmenting human bodies. These are rougher concepts and obviously less rendered than the final, but I hope you enjoy!"
Iron Lung BTS Photo Sets: 1st - 2nd (movie spoilers) - 3rd (set photos) - 4th - 6th (sub concepts)
i cant believe that there's still gamergate STANK on games that women enjoy. NASTY misogyny residue. stardew valley is in fact a video game. animal crossing is also a video game. so are otome games and dating sims and twee little cozy games. sometimes a bitch doesnt wanna play bloodborne that shit's hard
guys who mainly play 2k and fortnite will still be like oh youre not a real gamer for having 1000 hours in stardew. mother fucker you're larping as a basketball player
Israel has not stopped bombing and killing people in both Palestine and Lebanon. There hasn't been a single day since either ceasefire where it has not killed someone in either of those countries
Israel deliberately targeted and killed Tala Jomaa Abu Matar, a 9 year old, today.
These Zionazis have not let a day go by where they haven't killed at least one child.
Israel is still killing people.
In just the week of July 15th to July 22nd 2026 Israel has killed 60 Palestinians. Just in the last 24 hrs the Zionazis bombed and killed Firas and Salsabeel al-Masri and their 4 little children as they slept as the were sleeping at 2am.
This has been happening non stop since the so called "ceasefire"
So next time these modern day Nazis complain about getting hate when they travel you should remind them that they deserve all the hate they get.
As a 19-year-old sophomore at Stanford, Elizabeth Holmes decided to transform diagnostic medicine so she dropped out of college and used her tuition money to start her own company, Theranos. Ten years later, Holmes, pictured here holding a micro-vial, is on the cutting edge of medical technology — her new blood testing method allows hundreds of tests to be run using only a few drops of blood. And, Holmes’ methods are cheaper, faster, more accurate, and less invasive than conventional methods which often require a separate vial of blood for every test. As Holmes told Wired.com earlier this year, “I started this company because I wanted to spend my life changing our health care system. When someone you love gets really sick, most of the time when you find out, it’s too late to be able to do something about it. It’s heartbreaking… We wanted to make actionable health information accessible to people everywhere at the time it matters most. That means two things: being able to detect conditions in time to do something about them and providing access to information that can empower people to improve their lives.”

Reasons you should adore Elizabeth Holmes:
She is featured as Forbes’ youngest self-made woman billionaire.
Her tests will revolutionize the public health world as we know it; Making diagnostic testing accessible and affordable for more people (and potentially saving Medicare and Medicaid ~$100 billion each over the next decade). (x)
She is a coauthor on 82 US and 189 foreign patent applications. (x)
Her fear of needles served as a motivator for launching Theranos. (x)
Every time you go in a public place and something ISN’T disgusting it’s because somebody cleaned it. Every time you feel comfortable using a public bathroom or sitting at a restaurant table or setting something on a gas station counter or playing on a playground it’s because somebody cleaned it.
Thank you to everyone who cleans the world, especially those who are underpaid and under appreciated.
Give me less "being kind requires zero effort" and more "being kind is worth the effort it takes."
I mean, in some very interesting Technically Correct ways, they didn't actually die? Now, they're very much no longer alive. But the forces involved are such that they didn't get any of the usual cellular processes of death, they simply went from biology to physics in less time than it takes a signal to travel down your optic nerve.
if you go from biology to physics without dying first you don’t go to heaven the uber driver went over this already
I think I am officially Fandom Old. I am so worn out from the arguments on who's the top or the bottom (who cares), what is allowed to be written (anything you want, bejeebus), what is Problematic (I know, just tag it), what other people Should Do (they Should live their lives free of judgment). There isn't a Right Way to do things. Tag your stuff appropriately, don't read stuff you don't want to read, and leave other people (me) alone.
There is nothing quite like the freedom of having gone through all of the Discourse and come out the other side into the promised land of Not Giving A Fuck.
The three keys to the promised land are “Block, Unfollow, and Do Not Engage”
I have been in Fandom spaces for 20 years. It is LOVELY once you become the bog witch that no longer gives a fuck.
Proud fandom bog witch who's fucks have runneth dry, proudly maneuvering round meaningless discourse like...

my brother and I get on bandcamp and click on songs from the live updating list of albums that are selling and we listen to 30 seconds or so of a song and if we like it we add it to a playlist. and we call this "foraging for music."
anyways one of terminology we have coined to talk about music is "Knee Music" which is derived from the fact that album covers that show a person's knees tend to sound the same as each other. It's kind of a sleepy, grungy indie folk pop sound with youthful-sounding, vocals that affect a candid and vulnerable feeling.
or anyway we found multiple album covers with knees in quick succession, and they all sounded the same, hence "Knee Music"
but it doesn't have to be knees to be Knee Music. any kind of blurry, candid-looking photos that include skinny white people is likely to be knee music
My other brother's method of foraging for music is slightly more complicated: he gets on everynoise and uses random number generators to get a random genre, a random artist, and then a random song from that artist.
For a while, his method was slightly different, instead choosing a random genre and listening to it until he found a song from that genre that he liked.
However, this could be very time-consuming. once he became trapped for a long time in "geek rap" which was mostly a lot of people rapping in potentially spanish or portuguese (?) about Five Nights at Freddy's
