reading a textbook for class and i’m going insane. why is this just poetry. what. this is a STEM class what’s going on.
HELLO????? HELLO?????
me: I'm so excited to draw Simon with multiple eyes :) brain: the funniest thing you can do is draw eridian!Simon with googly eyes
this totally got away from me, which is to say that there are four versions with other eyes (+ the original sketch) under the cut
but! I'm really happy with the redesign of trills wound and it was fun to add some colour ^^
One thing that worries me about the use of AI is whether or not it can worsen people's dementia and alzheimer's in the future. When my grandmother was first diagnosed, we got her math activity books. Now, my grandmother never had a formal education, but we did our best to keep her sharp, get her to do math and writing activity books, sudokus, playing board games that required some level of strategizing with her. Her family is prone to alzheimer's and dementia (both her siblings had it and deteriorated very very very quickly, which yeah, scares the shit out of me being her granddaughter) but she was the one whose mind lasted the longest, she only passed away two years ago, at 88, ten whole years after her initial diagnosis and sure, she had forgotten things, recipes and where she put her glasses and appointments, but she never forgot any of us, ten whole years in, she still remembered us. Now, this may have been luck, but doctors always said the constant mental work + companionship + medicine helped her a lot. So I'm thinking, these people who are now relying on AI for everything, from email-writing to thinking what's for dinner to casual conversations, I've even seen people rely on it to calculate what time they should leave their house if they need to be at a place at a specific time and their commute lasts X number of minutes. As if that's not... the simplest math operation possible? You shouldn't even need a calculator for that!!! Idk I don't know how long it'll take us to see the effects of this + exposure to brain-rotting short form content that is completely meaningless + people addicted to right-wing conspiracy style media. Idk I'm very worried. Please, read, read complicated books! Take up a book on philosophy and try to decipher it and make your own opinions on it, please buy a maths activity book and relearn how to do math, please get a hobby that involves lots of thinking and concentrating. PLEASE!!!
As a neurologist, I’ll give you the pretty name for it: cognitive reserve.
The way I explain it to my patients is that our neurons don’t regenerate. They make connections with each other and that’s it. If you don’t use your brain, they make fewer connections and, if one of them dies, you’re gonna miss it, because that was the only one that knew how to do X. Now, if each one of them has many, many connections, you won’t notice the difference when one of them dies. The others pick up the slack.
As of 2024, 45% of dementia risk factors are modifiable. Relevant to this conversation, 5% for less education and 5% for social isolation.
We absolutely are going to see the reflection of this, but it’s gonna take decades and it’ll be too late. So, for the love of your brain, pretend that it’s a muscle and make it work. People complain about “when am I ever gonna use this maths formula in my life?” You’re not. You’re teaching your brain to think logically. Those sinapses will be there for when you need to figure out your week’s schedule. English classes taught me how to interpret data and how to convey it in this text so it’s clear and you understand what I’m saying, not because I needed to justify why the curtain is blue.
Make your brain know how to do different things. Logic games, puzzles, taking care of a garden even if small, planning a church’s event or birthday, learn a new instrument, learn a few words in another language, look at a calendar every day, do some manual labor if possible. Do not, I repeat, do not let your brain get rid of sinapses by letting AI do everything. Your brain uses 20% of your body’s energy — do you really think it’s going to maintain connexions that aren’t in use?
Most cases of Alzheimer’s are sporadic, meaning no family history. Family history of a first-degree relative with Alzheimer’s starting before they were 80yo increases your risk in 2-3x on average.
TLDR: Yes. From the knowledge we have today, AI will increase the number and severity of dementia cases.
so funny how the older u get ur like how the fuck on gods green earth did people used to manage all th- ahhh.. i need one of these wives everybody keeps talking about..
"how was X so successful and productive and achieving?" wife feeding and clothing and cleaning and shopping and parenting for them and also probably booking appointments and personal receptionist work. AND stimulant abuse. and shes supposed to suck you off whenever. id kill him too #feminists

do you think simon and grace have penetrative sex
yes, simon gets penetrated
yes, grace gets penetrated
yes, they are both into being penetrated
no, they don't want to be penetrated
no, they don't have any form of sex
this is completely motivated by me only thinking about them in terms of rubbing against each other and thigh fucking
brought to you by the light au
simon can have minor light based visible mutations as a treat
no visible mutations, powers only
very important question: what kind of tree is the last tree?
apple tree
maple tree
oak tree
other kind of fruit tree
other kind of non-fruit tree
apple tree is my personal headcanon, and I vaguely remember seeing either maple or oak
would have put more specific options if I had seen more posts that mentioned it
depending on the responses, I can remake the poll with more options
A Pokemon Center, anywhere on Earth

Simon insisting that he knows Grace, and in a way he does — it's not that the Hail Mary failed in his universe, it's not that Dr. Grace is talked about in hushed tones for being suspected of sabotage or for having his name attached to the discovery of astrophage — it's that Simon knew a reincarnated version of Ryland Grace, and he's so similar to this Grace that it hurts, but they're not the same
they can never be the same
got three options for if I do write this:
Ryland Grace is dead in Simon's universe but he used to be Simon's teacher. Simon butchered his body for Eden and the tree, held his organs, ate his flesh, had Ryland's blood sink underneath his nails
they were roughly the same age but Ryland was never made a Brother, making their friendship something looked down on, and resulted in at least one hasty kiss that was more a clashing of teeth than anything else, not as a result of feelings, but because Simon was being forced on the mission to steal supplies from Filament Station and they didn't know if they would ever see each other again (they didn't)
Ryland Grace was a doctor for the COI that spoke kindly to Simon when he was held captive, who asked his name and explained everything he was doing, even as he used Simon to test new medicines and practice his stitches, because a convict is only worth the resources if they can be useful. Simon hated him as much as he loved him
what do you like most?
1 — dead teacher
2 — similar age
3 — coi doctor
i also think the fact that after turnabout samurai will powers and phoenix kinda become friends is a source of significant torture to edgeworth even after edgeworth gets normal* because phoenix doesn't even appreciate what he's got. like will powers calls phoenix up to invite him to nice events, no you don't understand, the Steel Actual Samurai is Calling Phoenix Wright (His Lawyer), First, to Invite Him. to things. and phoenix is just like huh, he's social i guess. the steel actual fucking samurai. guess ill go to the premiere of the new 2 steel 2 samurai movie. with the steel actual real fucking legitimate samurai who called me first. don't have anything else to do. edgeworth is 99% sure will powers has a small crush on phoenix and phoenix does not even notice. he's just like yeah that will powers guy is friendly huh? i don't think he's got many friends if he's inviting his lawyer to stuff. and edgeworth is steaming jealous. and phoenix is like you wanna come? edgeworth is like I do not think I am welcome. phoenix is like sure you are, will likes you. edgeworth is like I Am Sure Your Dear Friend With Whom You Are On A First Name Basis (The Steel Samurai) Recalls The Time I Tried To Get Him (Steel Samurai) Convicted And Sentenced To Death. phoenix is like well he asks about you all the time. and edgeworth is like He Is Just Being Polite (He Is The Steel Samurai). I Am Going Now. To Brood. and the thing is edgeworth IS invited and will powers thinks he's hot but telling edgeworth this has a 73% chance of locking him in a torture gauntlet for all time
*"normal"
#another dimension to this: in the nrmts rship WP is edgeworth's hall pass#which is weird for someone they personally know but phoenix is chill about it because he knows#1) edgeworth would never do anything about it due to it would break his brain and#2) he would be ecstatic if edgeworth DID do this because it would be fucking hilarious#a long time later WP says to nick are you still with miles edgeworth? you're a lucky guy! and phoenix is like I HAVE TO CALL MY BOYFRIEND#EDGEWORTH GET OVER HERE NOW IT'S HAPPENING#rookposting#ace attorney#i think a lot of people have a crush on nick actually. he has that gormless unyielding hero vibe#watching a guy you barely know froth at the mouth in despair from the sheer effort of saving your life. it worked on Edgeworth
The tags on this post are really important to me I need everyone else to understand that immediately
