The irony of this new breed of self-righteous AI hunters on AO3 is that they're all just copy and pasting peoples fics into AI detectors, which are all operated by AI and therefore THEY are feeding people's work into the algorithm without their consent and in some cases no doubt circumventing the locks people put on to avoid getting scraped...

Don't copy and paste anyone's AO3 work into third party websites, you're not the good guys in this situation?

[homunculus-argument]

The Odyssey but retold as a low-stakes modern adventure of one guy out with his girlfriend leaving the bar with his buddies to do just one (1) simple thing real quick, it'll take like 15 minutes tops, he'll be right back, but then some bullshit happens and the trip keeps getting more complicated as more bullshit keeps happening while he just tries to get back to the bar because he promised his girlfriend that he'd get back and he knows that she's still there because she told him she'd wait there.

And by the time he finally gets back it's almost 3 am and the bar is about to close while she's sitting there stone cold sober, surrounded by 5 drunk guys unsuccessfully trying to convince her to give up on waiting for him and go home with one of them instead. And the guy shows up to proceed to beat the shit out of them before explaining himself to her like hey sorry bullshit kept happening, my phone fell into a storm drain and my wallet got stolen when I was trying to find someone who'd borrow me a phone so I could call and

[thekijs]

His girlfriend had been fending off the 5 drunk guys for most of the evening by explaining that even if she was going to ditch her boyfriend, she can't possibly leave without finishing her beer, which she is keeping perpetually full via careful sleight of hand where she's just pouring it back and forth into and out of the pitcher.

However the drunk guys are also drinking, and eventually she can't afford to buy another pitcher for the table so she can't keep up the ever-full beer glass trick. At this point she has to resort to setting up the pool trick shot that she's never seen anyone but her boyfriend pull off, and says she'll leave with whoever manages the shot first.

That buys her another hour or so and then, finally, her boyfriend makes it back. He looks like shit, hair down and just a mess, he's wearing an entirely different jacket that he got from an alley, and barely recognizable—especially to 5 guys who've been drunk for hours now. He lurks for a minute, finds out what's going on, and proceeds to pull off the trick shot first try. Throws the jacket off, fixes his hair with a hair tie his girlfriend lends him, finally looks like himself again, and THEN beats the shit out of them with the pool cue.

yuh i was there, that's how it happened

[mykelneedssleep]

I did jarthur shared body hcs awhile ago but I've been reading a lot of fics of them post s6 with separate bodies so here's some random jarthur separate bodies hcs for your enjoyment:

They are so used to sharing a body that once separated, things like privacy and personal space don't really occur to them as something they should pay attention to with each other. It is very common to see them taking up the same physical space (brushing up against each other, leaning full chest-to-back over each other to look at something, physically moving the other instead of asking them to move, etc., etc.), and they are almost always touching in some way. Their default standing positioning in almost any situation is John slightly behind Arthur, with their shoulders pressed together. If one of them is seated, the other is probably either hovering behind them or perched on the arm of their chair. They do not find their physical proximity to be strange in any way because they've been a lot closer. They don't even notice how close they are unless someone else points it out, which isn't very often since people think they're freaky, so they try not to draw their attention.

Arthur is a decently tall man, but John is a good half foot taller than Arthur, and a bit broader. The sudden height difference is a bit of an adjustment for John, as he had become used to seeing things from Arthur's height and judging distances in proportion to Arthur's body size, so he bumped into a lot of things in the first few days of walking around in his own body.

Because they primarily interact with each other, John is less aware of the social norms of personal space than most people are, and therefore, has made multiple people uncomfortable by getting too close to them/touching them to move them out of his way. Arthur is subconsciously aware of John at all times, so he will subtly pull John back to his side if he's getting too close to other people and make apologies if necessary. The only other person who doesn't seem to mind John's extreme closeness is Faroe because she recognized very quickly that physical proximity to someone he knows seems to be a sort of comfort for John, so she made an effort to be close to him, and now she doesn't think anything of it. She pretty frequently leans on him and links arms with him when they’re walking, particularly if Arthur isn’t with them, because she wants John to feel comfortable.

Despite his earlier complaints that Arthur could talk to anyone, while he was only able to talk to Arthur, John doesn't actually have much of a desire to speak to other people very often. He is fully capable and does not have any anxiety about talking to other people; he just doesn't really want to. Most of the time—whether it's as simple as ordering something at a cafe or as complex as communicating with police about a case—Arthur is the designated talker of the two of them. It's not uncommon to see John lean down and say something to Arthur while he's talking to someone else, and have his input voiced by Arthur instead of just outright saying it. John's a bit of an attack dog, though, and he loves a good argument, so he is more than willing to yell at someone, particularly if they are brushing off, ignoring, or being rude to Arthur. If a point needs to be made, John will make it, and since he is more physically imposing and doesn't speak as often, people tend to listen to him. However, John does occasionally forget that other people can hear him now, and he has openly insulted multiple people while standing right in front of them.

If their investigations require touching any unknown or gross-looking substance, it automatically becomes Arthur's job because John will refuse. The idea that if Arthur has not touched it and deemed it acceptable, John will not touch it applies to most things, even if they are just regular objects that he has not seen before, because he is very picky about the texture of things that he touches. The only exception to the rule is corpses because he has to touch them for his visions to work, but he hates doing it. There have been multiple instances of people attempting to hand him things, only to have him stare at them until Arthur reaches around him and grabs the thing, but if Arthur hands something off, he won’t bat an eye before taking it. He also avoids shaking hands with people as often as possible, usually by either busying himself with something else or simply hanging back from the conversation, because he doesn’t like not knowing what their hand is going to feel like before he touches it.

Arthur had a hell of a time introducing John to food because he is also a very picky eater. They discovered that John hates anything bitter or sour, but he is weirdly into spicy food. The first thing aside from water that John ever consumed was a sip of Arthur's coffee, which he promptly spit out and declared disgusting. John prefers tea, but if he has to drink coffee for whatever reason, he takes it with honey and a bunch of cream, which Arthur finds horrifying and much too sweet. They are chronic meal repeaters because John is very hesitant to try new things.

John will occasionally catch himself describing things to Arthur and apologize, but Arthur always tells him to continue, even if he's actively looking at the same thing, because he likes the way John seems to find beauty in the most mundane things. Even when John isn't around, Arthur finds himself taking more time to just take in the world around him than he ever has before, wondering what John would think of certain sights. If John is around, he will sometimes prompt him to talk about what he's seeing just because he misses the way John describes things.

hi Bookblr plz think I’m funny

[fuckthisshit-ugh]

please read this even if you're not indian. especially if you're not indian.

you've seen the jokes. india is "dirty", indians are "everywhere", why don't they fix their own country. ok. let me tell you why, and what's happening right now while nobody's watching.

first, the history you skipped: britain ruled india for two centuries and drained it. economist utsa patnaik's research estimates around $45 trillion in today's money was taken. the india that got independence in 1947 was one of the poorest countries on earth. every "why is india like this" question starts there. you don't get to profit off a robbery and then mock the crime scene.

now, what's happening RIGHT NOW:

in may the question paper for NEET leaked. that's the national medical entrance exam. over 2.2 million students took it. cancelled. years of studying, families' savings poured into coaching, gone overnight because someone sold the paper. students died by suicide after. these were kids who wanted to be doctors.

and out of that came a protest movement. a gen z group called the cockroach janta party, started by a 30 year old named abhijeet dipke, got 22 million instagram followers within DAYS. they've been doing a sit-in at jantar mantar in delhi demanding education minister dharmendra pradhan resign.

and then there's sonam wangchuk. if you've watched 3 idiots, he's the real engineer the character was based on. built solar schools in ladakh. invented ice stupas so himalayan villages have water. spent his whole life on education. he's 59 and he's been on hunger strike for 17+ days now. reporters went to see him this week and he was too weak to talk. and the troll armies are calling him "anti national" and "foreign funded". a man starving himself for other people's children. that's the thing here, anyone who asks a question is suddenly a traitor.

it's not one incident, it's everywhere you look:

• infrastructure worth thousands of crores failing within months of the ribbon cutting. tunnels collapsing in regions where heavy rain is a guarantee, not a surprise.

• youth unemployment near 10% for ages 15 to 29, 13.6% in cities. in a country of 1.42 billion where more than half the population is young.

• only about the top 3% of indians earn above 10 lakh a year. meanwhile billionaire wealth keeps ballooning and the headlines celebrate it.

• manipur burned for over two years. an ethnic conflict, tens of thousands displaced, and the prime minister barely said the word manipur while it happened.

• journalists raided. critics' houses bulldozed. activists sitting in jail for years without trial under laws like UAPA. our press freedom ranking has cratered.

• even the petrol is a fight now, ethanol blending pushed through while drivers complain about their engines and get no straight answers.

and through all of it, the PM, who came to power on religious polarisation (americans, sound familiar?), travels abroad for photo ops and has not held one single open press conference in over a decade. not one.

what i'm asking:

if you're not indian: share this. our media mostly won't cover any of it because the big outlets are owned by the same billionaires the government serves. the only reason wangchuk's fast is getting any coverage is people refusing to look away.

if you ARE indian: speak up even if you're comfortable. especially if you're comfortable. join the protests. add to this, correct me, translate it. staying quiet is a choice when nothing in this post touches your life.

india is not "dirty". india was robbed, and it's being robbed again, from the inside this time. but it's also the country where a 59 year old will starve for strangers' kids and 22 million young people will rally behind a party literally named after cockroaches, because cockroaches survive everything.

we can still save her. but only loudly.

reblog. share. don't scroll past.

70% Drop in Levels of Forever Chemicals Observed in Seabird Eggs Tracks Regulatory Success

These pescatarian birds are directly exposed to PFAS contamination due to the island's position near the St. Lawrence Seaway.

Over fifty years of data show a peak in PFAS (also known as "forever chemicals") content in seabird eggs in the 90s, followed by a decrease as regulations went into effect. The most recent findings show a 70% decrease of most common PFAS.

While continued vigilance a regulation is needed, this data indicates that regulations are working to reduce PFAS concentrations in marine ecosystems.

[sattarehi]

Yes!!!! I did a review of literature on PFASs in human drinking water about half a year ago, and there is a lot of really good progress! Please celebrate this, please don't let this solution be forgotten (at least so quickly) as the ozone layer or acid rain.

We are making genuine progress! Producers are dramatically altering how much they use PFAS and how much gets released in effluent, but also there's a lot better understanding of how to remove PFAS from the environment!

Environmental problems CAN BE SOLVED.

fit check! i was sick of having to look up references for what clothes grace has on the mary/erid so i compiled them as best i could.

some notes: 1) i couldn't find a white long sleeve that looked the same, but it's such a simple thing i didn't feel it was that important. 2) there's a logo on his shorts but i couldn't figure out what it was, i'd guess a nasa one. 3a) i couldn't find the same bucket hat, but there's the logo. 3b) i couldn't find that tie dye shirt to save my life. 4) the jumpsuits are exactly the same except color and i could only find the full ref for white. 5) couldn't find either ilyukhina's dress or his track suit. again, the track suit is easy so no ref needed.

obviously this is just what we can be 100% certain he has, who knows what else yao and ilyukhina had packed. honestly, i would also assume he has everything he had while on the stratt vat and in baikonur since they probably just loaded all his belongings when he was shipped off.

book grace loves to go on and on about rocky’s intelligence. every page he’s like rocky is SO smart, and so talented and skilled, eridians are probably WAY smarter than humans right rocky (and rocky’s like no, i think we’re of similar intelligence just in different ways) and grace is like NAH eridians are smarter, especially rocky, who’s probably the smartest one of all, who can fix anything and do anything and god i miss him i wish he was here right now. i wonder if he wants to do surgery on me. because i would let him if he asked
