The Font of Dubious Wisdom

“knowing how to write effective AI prompts will be a valuable skill in the future” and what if I skip all that and write the email myself in under 30 seconds drawing from my very own biological database of language and rhetoric (my brain)?

Did you just delete a post? I wrote a long reply agreeing with you. Saved it to my drafts because I needed to proof read it (but i'd literally just gotten out of the sea and was freezing my tits off) and now it won't let me post it.

Didn't delete. Did private a couple things that felt unnecessarily...prickly.

*bangs Tumblr until it lets me ban everyone from using the reply function including people I follow*

"why do you know that" i am curious about the world around me

Shout-out to aromantic people whose lives are so fucking busy that they periodically forget what day of the week it is. today is Wednesday, June 5th. Happy Aromantic Visibility Day.

Today is Thursday, June 5th. Happy Aromantic Visibility Day.

It's June 5th again!

Aro and especially ace people just straight up forgetting their visibility events is a time-honored tradition that goes back at lest a decade.

Dosn't Xeno also use a the Knight chess piece to represent Stanley just before he is captured by the kingdom of science?

That's literally the the same time. He's moving the chess piece as he says "The Ultimate Knight made an elegant move" or whatever.

Ooh, I got confused. I thought for some reason Xeno called him a Knight during the princess scene, and that's what you were referring to.

i think the funniest and realist thing i’ve realized lately is how troubling idealization can be. every person is just… a person. the very people you want to impress or be apart of are just people. even if they seem wildly intimidating because of the way they look or because of their reputation, every one is just a person. human. as embarrassing, as remorseful and they are going through stages of growth just like you are. we only see what we want to see and then drown ourselves further in our own depression and we don’t have to.

truly and i am learning the less i idealise others, the more willing i am to meet people where they are warts n all. and the more willing i am to show myself too and bring my whole self into things. my own embarrassment becomes a new normal and fine thing. stumbling becomes more endearing.

had a teacher once who told us “idealizing people is just as dehumanizing as demonizing them” and that stuck with me so much
