wghatever the fuck this genre of tweet is i cant fucking stop saying mein scheiss Hund as a vocal stim
As someone who knows a fair amount of German I’m trying to translate these tweets myself and Scheiß can also be used for fuck as well as shit so it can also be “my fucking dog Tank of Peace is drifting 200 nautical miles off the Colombian coast” is a whole new level of funny too me
Manoeuvre is such a bullshit word. You don't need all those vowels.

“Normal” test results are not the relief people think they are. When you wake up in pain and continue to be in pain for hours every day and your tests come back normal you don’t stop being in pain.
when *routine* tests come back normal: a good sign! your body continues to function as it should!
when *diagnostic* tests come back normal: bad! this means you're gonna have to do even more tests in hopes of finding out whatever the fuck is clearly going wrong in your body

We all deserve better as workers and it starts with abolishing capitalism.
So I have a headcanon about in stars and Time that Siffrin is genuinely extremely talented at craft in general but doesn't realize it because of his poor self esteem.
Like obviously within the timeloop they get to grow stronger while the party doesn't but let's assume that without the timeloops Siffrin would learn about as many craft skills as the party learn naturally which is backed up by the fact that Sif does learn his first three skills at roughly the same level as the party.
Isabeau just works on shouting encouraging things (presumably projecting craft energy into his voice somehow) which is a variation of skills he already has.
Mirabelle learns how to share a part of her blessing with others (which she confirms to have been working on for a while in some dialogue) and learns better healing skills which is also a variation of stuff she already knows.
Odile's skillset is more complicated than the other two picking up a more advanced paper attack as well as a unique buff and debuff which one can assume are the culmination of her study into the three different craft styles.
Siffrin meanwhile under no timeloop conditions would pick up another scissor attack (notably they're the only to get three separate moves of one type implying some level of heightened mastery compared to the rest), a healing move and a rock attack. And as far as I know they never show any interest in actively studying or learning either of them. they just kinda pick it up as they go along, presumably just from observing the rest of the gang do their things.
So while everyone else can only focus on refining what they already know Siffrin would just casually pick up two entirely separate crafting disciplines they likely never used before within a single very grind heavy day in the house of change.
And if we're feeling very generous and assume Siffrin would still have their level up movepool up to 75 (the level cap for non timeloopers) it gets even crazier since not only would they keep picking up new skills while the rest of the party plateau's but what they'd be picking up is another freaking crafting type and another healing skill
Autism be dammed that rogue can craft
Calling scam victims stupid, much like cult members, serves to do nothing but make you feel superior, blame victims for the wrongs done to them, and in turn actually makes you more vulnerable to scams (and cults, and so on). "Look at these people! Morons! I could never be one of them because I am smart, unlike these people who fell for them because they are stupid. It is not about vulnerability and luck, both of which are factors that could affect me, it is all simply a matter of in-born intelligence, which is why I, a better human, don't have to worry about falling for them."
And boom, you have already let your guard down - you would never fall for a scam (or cult, etc.) so you can safely click on that link or read that pamphlet because if it was a scam you'd have identified it as such immediately, because you are smart. You don't need to stop and question. You're too smart. And, really, if they didn't want to get scammed they shouldn't have gone out dressed like that.
We're all potential victims. Every single one of us has been at one point or another been at vulnerable to a scammer, or a pickpocket, or any other number of external force trying to harm you for their own benefit. Blaming the victims feels good but it doesn't help shit in the long run.
skia-ouraReblogged haberdashingzooophagousFollowTwo animals people need to shut the fuck up about and be normal are pandas and dolphinsloverphilosopherRespectfully, no.Pandas are only alive because they're cute.Dolphins are sex criminals and drug fiends. zooophagousNo. Pandas are animals that evolved to fit a particular biome. The fact that they don't reproduce well in captivity isn't a mark against them, it's a mark against captivity. They, like almost any animal, are threatened by fragmented habitat and are luckily cute enough to get the funding necessary to conserve them. If not for similar conservation efforts all kinds of animals of varying degrees of cuteness would be dead as well. Nobody is calling for the abandonment of the black footed ferret project because ferrets are cute and somehow that makes them less-than in the eyes of slack jawed edgy douchebro comedians. Dolphins are mammals and enjoy things that mammals commonly enjoy, such as intoxicants, and if you're going to pretend to be shocked and disgusted by a dolphin getting high you'll also have to throw away reindeer and every other animal that enjoys fermented juices including fruit flies. Dolphins are perceived by humans as being more intelligent and therefore more culpable to "sins" than other animals but humans can't even agree on what's immoral let alone expecting a non human animal to magically ascribe to our same biases for no reason and assign the animal negative traits when it fails to meet that asinine expectation.The sooner you stop trying to shoehorn in some fake idea of an animal being more or less deserving of its existence the easier it will be to get through to people.Which I should just go ahead and say right now, the OP was inspired by an article about a woman who was injured in a dolphin petting pen on vacation and the comments were full of people blaming THE DOLPHIN because "theyre nasty violent rapists" and not the humans, who captured it, forced it into a pen, and climbed and petted all over it knowing full well it was a large wild predator that had no business being swarmed by untrained fucking idiots.It may have been haha funny shocking animal fact at first but now it's ruined because too many people started buying that shit for real and now we have people who no longer want to preserve the sea otter because it doesn't know what consent is.
skia-ouraReblogged haberdashingcapesandshapesFollowAs a former librarian I'm actually required to remind you that many libraries that subscribe to Libby are opted into a program that lets you subscribe and access magazines for free with no waitAnd that this is actually a really fun, low cost way to not only access news and larger cultural magazines, but also to get free patterns for many different crafts that you can screenshot if need be and that lower the financial barriers to entry for trying new things From my experience working in both academic and public libraries, many libraries are use it or lose it funding-- I have to say this because a lot of patrons feel guilty for how much they use the library and how often they're using it funny enough, but the worst thing you can do for libraries is not try out new features and not use what's already given to you as much as possible. The numbers that come as a result of your patronage are how most libraries justify their continued existence in times of financial hardship, which sucks but, go check out some magazines on Libby!

No one knows why.
...
Fellow researchers took to social media over the weekend to register their concern over the series of events.
"None of this is in any way normal," Matthew Green, a professor specializing in cryptography at Johns Hopkins University, wrote on Mastodon. He continued: "Has anyone been in contact? I hear he’s been missing for two weeks and his students can’t reach him. How does this not get noticed for two weeks???"
In the same thread, Matt Blaze, a McDevitt professor of computer science and law at Georgetown University, said: "It's hard to imagine what reason there could be for the university to scrub its website as if he never worked there. And while there's a process for removing tenured faculty, it takes more than an afternoon to do it."anarchistmemecollectiveALToh and he’s chinese so we do know why the trump administration targeted him
skia-ouraRebloggedinsertdisc5Followjaydove-writes asked:I forgot if I asked this last time your inbox was open (though even if I did, you never answered it) but how long did you have the ideas for ISAT in your head before you started the development process? I've had this idea for a game for 12 years and haven't coded a single line. I'm writing the story first. Is that a bad idea? I know it's not a race, but I feel like I'm behind my fellow mid-20s creatives. I also can't draw for shit, nor can I afford to commission a thousand or so art pieces. Do you have any advice (other than replaying your game, which I plan to do anyway) for an aspiring indie dev who has felt like giving up but hasn't actually done it? insertdisc5 answered:writing the story first is never a bad idea. however i think you should start actually making the game where you know stuff like "so im gonna have this boy and he's gonna become a jedi to fight the emperor and then the emperor is gonna be his DAD and then he saves the galaxy", even if you don't know what happens in between those cool things. aka when you know your beginning and end.the reason you should start actually making the game then is because while making the game, you will realize the strengths and weaknesses of the software you're using. which means you'll realize you cant make this cool moment with a thousand enemies. but you CAN add little scenes every time the player uses a specific item. and knowing the intricacies of the software will make your game coolertldr: just start da gaem already!!!!! u can do eet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've heard people suggest that people with minor sight problems shouldn't get glasses, and people needing to move to a stronger prescription should do it and should stay on as light a prescription as they can use and still function, because the glasses will "weaken their eyes" and make their eyesight worse (which is bullshit). People will pull this ableist bullshit on glasses wearers, too.

skia-ouraReblogged seiya234itsclydebitchesFollowSomething I don't think we talk enough about in discussions surrounding AI is the loss of perseverance. I have a friend who works in education and he told me about how he was working with a small group of HS students to develop a new school sports chant. This was a very daunting task for the group, in large part because many had learning disabilities related to reading and writing, so coming up with a catchy, hard-hitting, probably rhyming, poetry-esque piece of collaborative writing felt like something outside of their skill range. But it wasn't! I knew that, he knew that, and he worked damn hard to convince the kids of that too. Even if the end result was terrible (by someone else's standards), we knew they had it in them to complete the piece and feel super proud of their creation. Fast-forward a few days and he reports back that yes they have a chant now... but it's 99% AI. It was made by Chat-GPT. Once the kids realized they could just ask the bot to do the hard thing for them - and do it "better" than they (supposedly) ever could - that's the only route they were willing to take. It was either use Chat-GPT or don't do it at all. And I was just so devastated to hear this because Jesus Christ, struggling is important. Of course most 14-18 year olds aren't going to see the merit of that, let alone understand why that process (attempting something new and challenging) is more valuable than the end result (a "good" chant), but as adults we all have a responsibility to coach them through that messy process. Except that's become damn near impossible with an Instantly Do The Thing app in everyone's pocket. Yes, AI is fucking awful because of plagiarism and misinformation and the environmental impact, but it's also keeping people - particularly young people - from developing perseverance. It's not just important that you learn to write your own stuff because of intellectual agency, but because writing is hard and it's crucial that you learn how to persevere through doing hard things. Write a shitty poem. Write an essay where half the textual 'evidence' doesn't track. Write an awkward as fuck email with an equally embarrassing typo. Every time you do you're not just developing that particular skill, you're also learning that you did something badly and the world didn't end. You can get through things! You can get through challenging things! Not everything in life has to be perfect but you know what? You'll only improve at the challenging stuff if you do a whole lot of it badly first. The ability to say, "I didn't think I could do that but I did it anyway. It's not great, but I did it," is SO IMPORTANT for developing confidence across the board, not just in these specific tasks. Idk I'm just really worried about kids having to grow up in a world where (for a variety of reasons beyond just AI) they're not given the chance to struggle through new and challenging things like we used to. fixyourwritinghabitsI think this is an incredibly important post for a lot of reasons. You have to write a bad book in order to learn how to do something. You have to suck at playing an instrument before you can improve. Struggling is part of the process, and I've had a lot of people argue with me that it shouldn't be who fail to see the point. When you replace an composer with an AI music generator, an artist with an AI-generated image, or an author with an AI-generated fanfic, you are missing out on the critical, fundamental experiences humans need to learn and grow. You are robbing yourself of essential skills you need as a person.AI is not like a calculator, or a synthesizer, or a prompt generator. It's not a tool to aid in your process of understanding or creating something. It is replacing your ability to learn things, and that is going to do so much damage if you let it.
