lately i've been working on Vermin Cathexis, an original setting centered on insect vampire hiveminds and a frankly egregiously complicated magic system.
the last big thing i worked on was Hostile Takeover, a longform murder drones fanfic about a lesbian killer robot torn between her directives and her own needs.
my most extensive work is the writings that comprise Black Nerve, a dark fantasy setting where giant insects wield magic that dissolves life and matter, mutant bat-blood and of course esoteric fungi. there's a couple of novels and LOT of lore posts
i have a website which is probably the best place to see all of my stuff:
A website for writings, drawings, and compositions.
but to get a taste of what you can find on that site, keep reading
most people are probably following me for my murder drones stuff.
as mentioned, i write the critically acclaimed J/Uzi fic, Hostile Takeover:
An Archive of Our Own, a project of the
Organization for Transformative Works
it's a beyond-novel-length enemies to lovers slowburn, and distinguishes itself by pulling it all off without heavy alteration to canon characterization.
most people are probably put off by the tagged ship, but i've received numerous comments to the effect of "i never liked this ship" or "i didn't think it could be done" followed by "but you somehow pulled it off".
give it a shot!
besides that, i've read a lot of murder drones fanfic, and maintain a page on my website dedicated to indexing and reviewing fics that i'd recommend
Curating the best fanfics for the best web series about angsty murderbots.
several of the people following me are writers, who may be interested in know that i've written several essays on the craft of writing. people tend to find them pretty insightful!
i've written many stories other than Hostile Takeover. you can find them on my site; there's too many to list, but in general, i write nonhuman character near-exclusively. (my friends were only so surprised when i became obsessed with murder drones)
still, HT is my most successful work for a reason, and i'm not certain fans of that will enjoy my earlier writing; i have reservations about recommending most of them. A Chimerical Hope is still cool, i think, though its issues are undeniable
the majority of my site is dedicated its overarching setting: Black Nerve, a dark fantasy world of giant sapient insect ninjas and corrupting fungus and gruesome mutagenic blood magic. there's so much going on there that i just cant get into all of it here. not even sure where you should begin reading
lore posts like "In Dialogue With Plagues", or "Lardsuckers and (What Were) Grubsuckers" give you a taste of just how freaky the setting is, and i think "The Duality of Mantis" is a great look at the weird psychology of the dominant species. but there's so many articles i can't list them all
writing is probably what i've done the most of, but i have other skills :3
i've released four albums of electronic music on bandcamp:
15 track album
and there's more!
i'm sometimes an artist, and there's gallery on my site with over three hundred pieces i've drawn over the years. i mostly draw these weird alien dudes i invented, plus a lot of praying mantises and dragons and pokemon. quality varies a lot and i'm bad about staying in practice, but here are some pieces i think turned out rather well
ok, now is that it?
well, mostly. i have some poetry that's neat, and i recently produced a game demo that's shaping up into something interesting:
Sokoban roguelike. Explore and solve randomly generated levels, collect powerups, and wield awkward tools.
but now, that's probably everything of serious note.
if you read through all of that, i love you. thank you for your time and i hope there's something here you appreciated

There’s a thing a certain type of tumblr user will do, where in response to being asked whether ghosts are real, they will redefine what the word “ghosts” mean, what the word “real” means, and what the word “are” means just so they don’t have to answer no.
i'm (or at least was, when younger) sympathetic to to subtle nuances and not dismissing any concept outright, but ultimately i agree it's bad mental posture
this extends beyond than tumblr users; you see the tendency among pretty much any nerd with a taste for insight porn and contrarianism. you get the dual benefit of feeling more clever than both sides and you get the allure of limning your ideas with an evocative and creative lens.
if you'll forgive quoting myself, i think i articulately my rebuttal well in my rant about scissor statements:
Consider antimemes. Are they real? Some ideas are hard to describe or remember, but there isn’t any idea that can innately erase all records of itself, whether stored on brain or photo or computer file. That is a purely conceptual effect at odds with the mechanics of how the physics of this universe works.
Is it unfair to raise the bar of “scissor statement” so high nothing can ever satisfy it? I often find myself arguing that your terms shouldn’t be made useless by definition. We already have a word for “nothing”, so if you have a choice between coining a synonym for the empty set and including anything at all, it’s preferable, practical, to gesture at something real.
But my problem, with both “antimemes are real” and “scissor statements are real” is that this is magic. You are trying to describe the world with magic. Even if you define your magic as only strictly specifically the effects that are actually real, I think the impulse and effect of reasoning magically is cognitive distortion.
in short, this is the approach of an intellectual chūnibyō

my headcanon is that detecting whether a coding task is frontier-llm-dev-related is hard and these guys have nothing, this one vague paragraph is a transparent bluff, "uhhh we do something with steering vectors or peft or maybe we fuck up your prompt or something??... but we do it real subtle so you can't even tell when it's working..." like cmon man
I do think about that. did GMS make promises.... did she promise Lace that it would be grand and glorious when she awoke and she could truly look upon and touch her beloved daughter... was this the sort of apology she offered, when she lashed out, that everything would be better when she woke up?
that kind of thing... maybe not even in words but Impressing the sensations/ideas upon Lace directly...

it's interesting that the original backrooms post on 4chan posits the backrooms to be finite. "six hundred million square miles of randomly segmented empty rooms" is "only" three times the total surface area of the earth
it's not some endless existence beyond cartography. it's not necessarily even beyond human reason. but it doesn't matter. because You are still so much smaller than It, and so it may as well be infinite and unknowable
