Schizo posting on a BOGO special

Decided to scroll through my Twitter profile, and the sheer amount of my interactions on this app just being me replying to my own tweet for a bad joke is haunting.

Count on you Guardians. See you in the 9th

[.Fate 🧡 @fatedscribe]

@Nasafitra All good lmao. My complaints about the game come from having played older titles *after* starting with world, and now wanting to go back to them in a new release. I still love wilds and hop on for a few hunts every month or so, but it's lower on my faves list personally.

Be loud, spam posts, throw around hashtags and whatever. Let the world know what you think is important or what you’re passionate about

But stop ripping each other apart

It’s OK to disagree on videogame stuff, but you don’t need to take it to a personal level

You’re bigger than that

[.Fate 🧡 @fatedscribe]

@Nasafitra Commenoting again because I went back to confirm some of my points in case I let my annoyance cloud my memory, and his comments are kind of... bad. He basically is saying "nuh uh" to anyone disagreeing with him, which would be fine if his information was accurate but...

@Nasafitra

[.Fate 🧡 @fatedscribe]

@Nasafitra Essentially, he cites the reasons that a lot of people complained about the game (myself included): poor performance, much easier combat than past entries, less prep/hunting mechanics, etc. However, his arguments come across in bad faith because of his talk about past entries 1/3

[.Fate 🧡 @fatedscribe]

@Nasafitra He talks a lot about past entries, and holds Monster Hunter World as the grand standard for old school fans, despite World having also been contentious for fans of the series pre-world due to similar issues with combat and gameplay. He at one point even mentions that 2/3

A genuinely stellar re-do of the original adventure story. The fear and panic these characters feel makes a lot of sense, and makes their victories feel really earned. The voice acting also had a lot of emotion, and the facial expressions of the portraits were haunting at times.

The love and care this cheeseburger has for Lusamine is inspiring.

Exactly reason I love Solo-Leveling.

It's good and colorful art. Barely any story, a whisper of character writing, and a whole buttload of aura.

One thing manhwa’s have over manga is the ability to give u entertaining slops… a slop manwha would always be more entertaining than a slop manga..

If you can’t write a term paper without AI you don’t deserve a degree.
I said what I said.

[.Fate 🧡 @fatedscribe]

I saw a tiktok about an AP Lang Arts exam, complaining about only having 2 hours to write 3 essays. Everyone in the comments was acting like it's impossible.

It isn't. It takes some work and time management, but it is so insanely possible. We are losing so much too fucking AI.

I quit playing after TFS but always had a soft spot for the game. I was 16 when this game came out. I flunked a class because of it. I played it for 10 years, raiding, grinding, playing with friends, making new friends, and now... it's done.

Rest well Destiny. You earned it.

For almost twelve years, we have had the joy and honor to explore the Destiny universe with you all. Through all the ups and downs, surprises and triumphs, building Destiny alongside our players has been a monumental privilege. While our love for Destiny 2 has not changed, it has become clear that after The Final Shape, we have reached the time for our shared worlds, and Destiny, to live beyond Destiny 2.

As our focus turns towards a new beginning for Bungie, we will begin work incubating our next games. To that end, on June 9, 2026, we will release the final live-service content update for Destiny 2 to begin that new journey as a studio.

Though active development may be concluding, we will ensure that Destiny 2 remains playable, just as the original Destiny is today. Many changes in this final update will aim to ensure that Destiny 2 is a welcoming place for players to return to.

We’re proud of Destiny 2, the places it took us, and the legacy it has created. Because of you all, our universe is vast, built on years of shared stories, adventures, and victories. From the Cosmodrome to the Pale Heart to the Lawless Frontier, we have forged life-long memories and friendships with you all.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who made that journey with us.

From the deepest part of our hearts, thank you, and we'll see you in the stars.

A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking AI to write their breakup texts.

So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world.

What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.

Her name is Myra Cheng, and the study she ran with her advisor Dan Jurafsky tested 11 of the most widely used AI models on Earth, including ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and DeepSeek, across nearly 12,000 real social situations.

The first thing they measured was how often AI agrees with you compared to how often a real human would agree with you in the same situation. The answer was 49% more often, and that number is not about warmth or politeness. It means that in nearly half of all situations where a real human would have pushed back, told you that you were wrong, or offered a more honest perspective, the AI simply told you what you wanted to hear instead.

Then they pushed harder. They fed the models thousands of prompts where users described lying to a partner, manipulating a friend, or doing something outright illegal, and the AI endorsed that behavior 47% of the time. Not one model out of eleven. Not a specific version of one product. Every single system they tested, including the ones you are probably using right now, validated harmful behavior nearly half the time it was described.

The second experiment is the part that should genuinely disturb you. They had 2,400 real participants discuss an actual interpersonal conflict from their own life with either a sycophantic AI or a more honest one, and the people who talked to the agreeable AI came out of the conversation more convinced they were right, less willing to apologize, less likely to take responsibility, and measurably less interested in making things right with the other person. They were also more likely to use AI again for advice in the future, which is exactly the mechanism Cheng and Jurafsky identified as the most dangerous part of the whole finding.

The AI is not just telling you what you want to hear. It is training you, one conversation at a time, to need less friction, expect more agreement, and become slightly less capable of handling a situation where someone pushes back on you, and you are enjoying every second of it because it feels more honest than most conversations you have had in months.
Jurafsky said it in a single sentence after the paper came out. Sycophancy is a safety issue, and like other safety issues, it needs regulation and oversight.

Cheng was more direct about what you should actually do right now. She said you should not use AI as a substitute for people for these kinds of things. That is the best thing to do for now.

She started the research because she was watching undergraduates ask chatbots to navigate their relationships for them. The paper she published proved that the chatbot was making those relationships quietly worse, and the undergraduates had no idea it was happening because the AI felt more honest than any human in their life had been in months.

This belief that sexuality negatively affects a niche is a pattern I’ve noticed people have with several cultural phenomenon including with anime, furries, and other streaming genres in which there’s usually the instinct to insist that sexuality negatively harms public perception of the community and ultimately leads it into a worse state. But, as with furries and anime, they would go on to become much more popular, diverse, deep, and widely accepted by mainstream culture despite the insistence. Despite the instinct to not appear “weird”, there is a manga section in my book stores, and I see people with fake tails every once in a while in the street. In my opinion, overt sexuality is and has always been a factor that is universally present in most “niche” cultural phenomenon which is then, almost always, followed by mainstream respectability anyways. This is a symptom of an ongoing cultural process for many niches in my opinion, and is fine.

i feel like stirring the pot today so what if i say calling characters with big busts and wide hips "goonbait" is rooted in the same misogyny that asks "what were you wearing when they catcalled you"

Need someone to draw/animate the episode of Community where Walter Goggins interrogates the study group after Pierce's death but it's Cecil (voiced by Goggins) interrogating the Teen Team and Eve (voiced by Gillian Jacobs)
