Pray to the heavens above, then entrust your sorrows to the faraway sea.
The heavens may remain silent, but the waves will carry an answer back to you, like the lingering aria of a Water Imp.
the harry potter situation just proves how little people care about the trans community bc it's not a matter of "separating artist and art" this woman is devolving her wealth to transphobic policies, there is no unharmful way to support her, you are actively financing transphobia
Idk if this is too niche, but for adults that get mistaken for teenagers, does it frustrate you if people act like this is a good thing because something something "aging well" something something beauty standards? Because it frustrates me.

"I used AI to-" Then you aren't a coder.
"I used AI to-" Then you aren't a game dev.
"I used AI to-" Then you aren't a poet.

Vodyanitsa: Lingering Siren-Song
Prima Donna of the Korolevskiy Troupe
#GenshinImpact#Vodyanitsa#GenshinSnezhnaya
A long, long time ago in Snezhnaya, Water Imps dwelled all over the city. Some sang glorious melodies on the stage, while others cheerfully hummed lighthearted tunes through the streets and alleyways. Then there were the others who preferred to slip into the water, where they would lure curious passersby to the water's edge with their haunting, dreamlike songs, only to then suddenly leap up and splash the unsuspecting onlookers full in the face before vanishing, giggling, back beneath the surface with a flick of their tails, leaving their victims floundering between anger and laughter...
But, as time passed, the stages and alleyways of Snezhnaya quietly lost their singers, and the melodies beneath the waters, carried by unseen currents, began flowing soundlessly toward a distant silence. People began to whisper uneasily among themselves, wondering if those haunting songs from the deep might drift away from them forever...
Then, one morning, people learned that Vodyanitsa was still performing on the stage of Korolevskiy Theater, as though the days of old had never faded and the joy of bygone times had remained just as it always had been.
Hardly anyone knew why she stayed — nor did anyone dare ask her to her face, unless they were prepared to never secure another interview with Miss Vodyanitsa ever again.
Maybe, she had stayed on in order not to disappoint the audiences who so adored her singing? Or maybe she was just unwilling to exit that dazzling stage? Or perhaps... there were other reasons significant enough to make her swim against the current, even if it meant bidding farewell to her own kind...
But for Vodyanitsa's audience, delving into the answer to that question is utterly meaningless. The only thing that matters is that they can continue to listen to the captivating voice of the Water Imp.
Of course, if you want to be swept away by her song...
"Standing tickets? Uh, sorry, but we don't sell those here at the theater at the moment... And no, we don't allow our patrons to bring their own chairs either."
"Crack the doors open a little? The draft would leave everyone inside freezing..."
"My apologies, but the theater isn't hiring any day cleaners at the moment!"
... First, you need to get a ticket.
Vesna: Snowy Banquet's Sharp Blade
Commander of the Druzhna
#GenshinImpact#Vesna#GenshinSnezhnaya
In Snezhnaya, the clan name "Strivozha" is one of certain importance.
This ancient Vila bloodline, which was already in existence long before Snezhnaya's turbulent early days, has weathered countless storms and earned countless honors over the years.
Vesna is evidently worthy of the name. Radiant and graceful, she exudes effortless refinement and quiet poise... well, at least most of the time.
A veritable free spirit, she refuses to be bound by the norms of polite society. This can often lead to surprising antics. Sometimes, she drives the train at such reckless speeds that all it leaves behind is a blur — and a reprimand waiting for her at the end of the line. At other moments, she carefully, meticulously, scrupulously slips a chosen slice of sour lemon onto a colleague's plate...
But no one would ever question Vesna's virtue or honor, for they come from her sword rather than superficial mores and gestures.
The Druzhna is the blade wielded by the Tsaritsa herself, and Vesna is its keenest edge.
Vesna isn't considered particularly old among the Vila. If anything, she is almost too young by half. In fact, when she first joined the Druzhna, she was known as "that little lass from House Strivozha," though that title was soon forgotten as she started to speak for herself with her skills and accomplishments.
By the time she officially took over as Commander-in-chief of the Druzhna, the name "Vesna" already shone so brightly that people had forgotten the "Strivozha" that followed it.
Now, after generations, this formidable family name has found an even more formidable bearer of its legacy.
Maybe for Vesna herself, her true glory lies not in her family name, nor in her remarkable talents, but in her own unwavering faith:
For the Tsaritsa, and for Snezhnaya.
So it was in the past, and so it shall be in the future. Just like the ancient glaciers, no wind, however capricious, can change this.
Yeah. I know AI users experience marked and measurable cognitive decline, but when I say "I don't use Gen AI" I mean I do. Not. Use. It.
Not for fun.
Not for curiosity.
Not for inspiration.
Not for conversation.
I do not use it AT ALL.
i’m so serious if generative ai ceased to exist tomorrow, nothing in my life would change except for the fact that i’d be less pissed off and frustrated and that most of the apps i use would start working properly again lmfao
i don’t think a lot of people understand that even if ai was completely environmentally neutral, or even positive, you should still be against it. it’s making everyone dumb and fucking insane. it will be the downfall of our society
