also I feel like directors forgot that sometimes it’s SUPPOSED to be uncomfortable
Satyricon made me feel genuinely uncomfortable in a lot of scenes BECAUSE THAT’S THE POINT, not everything about a world 2–3 thousand years ago needs to be softened just to please the audience
Dua Lipa reveals the list of Books in her Banned Books Library. “These are the Books the Establishment doesn’t want you to read” she said in a post on Instagram. Thoughts on this?
@FUCHSIASTARDUST i was in this situation about 4 months ago and got blocked. i really don't see the soft angle of weyler when it's all laid out on screen, and there's nothing wrong with that
i'm convinced that what people label as AI-written is often just a sentence or phrase that uses rhetorical devices beyond the usual simile, hyperbole, and metaphor
honoring several near-identical cartoon lesbian relationships feels unbearably cringe until those last three lines of ChatGPT tripe remind you that there’s a real value to the earnestness of an embarrassing paragraph written by an actual human who is just excited about something
I do not understand the logic of people who witch-hunt authors for using AI (allegedly because they support human art) but then also dog-pile on authors against book-piracy.
You're boycotting for AI, but also boycotting if they speak out about wanting their work to be valued?
oh really? like it's any different from your bio:
"SLUG--serious, lucid, unique and girl"
calling it "clumsy simile" when it's literally just a common combination of tricolon, auxesis, and asyndeton
@hyperboreanfujo (3-5) are making light of the situation, but it makes *you* feel good abt being a problem solver. *you* would then call it a day, but your friend would carry it for far longer. if *you* need to satisfy *your* instinct, then *you're prioritising yourself* to feel better
@hyperboreanfujo all of those items listed are saying don't make it abt yourself or be a hero. empathy is being a safe harbour or an anchor for a friend who's in a storm. just be present, listen, and don't make it abt yourself. your sentence itself is all about you in a position giving charity
the slide is not even about ND and you felt attack because you make it all about yourself, which is what the slide is saying not to do. (1) don't make it abt yourself, (2) still, don't make it abt yourself, (3-5) you're trying to be a hero and making light of the situation
Constant earthbending would pulverize the rocks and literal earth they use for fighting, and that's why there's dirt and sand. When they punch and throw rocks/earth it turns into powder, which then covers the ground and accumulate because it's literally a battle arena
Is there a way to community note a community note? how are you all so fixated about "sand" when Toph's problem were the sands in a DESERT because it behaves like water when she uses seismic waves to see...because it's VAST and ENDLESS unlike closed spaces like, say, an arena
