Ancient Canadian Millennial. Whole sort of general multifandom mish-mash for media with disappointing endings. She/her or they/them. Bring me your anticapitalist, pro-2SLGBTQIA+, pro-neurodivergent posts. Only fandom love in this house though I reserve the right to hate on the source material. Celebrating all the #tumblr holidays.
Because he was thinking about
The parts of his head that stick out,
He gave Sherlock and John
Matching gifts to put on
To muffle the cold or a shout.
'Tis a Gift is on AO3.
I wonder if you think you know
What gift that could be? Well, if so,
Please share it with me
And fill me with glee
By putting your guess down below!

Summary: John and Sherlock marry without witnesses, church, or state. [This continues Ch. 100, which is short enough to reread if you ... you know. Ch. 103 will be ]
*
I grasp Sherlockâs elbows, not his hands, which I watch startle and then settle. In the millisecond before I open my mouth to speak, a hundred memories push in to stop time.
His hands on his violin, on the bow. His calluses, known by touch and by heart.
His hand cuffed to mine in the most terrifying chase of our whole, terror-rich career.
His hands gripping mine when we strain and thrust to melt the boundary between us.
His hands newly scoured by some caustic chemical or other, the small wounds a matter of indifference to him but not to me.
His hands, dexterous as a magicianâs (illusionist, John, heâd say impatiently, magic isnât real), quick and precise as a surgeonâs.
His hands, the unseeing version of those mercurial eyes: both are like no one elseâs, hungry for data that they can shuttle to the sense-making organ faster than most people can even register its presence.

The @fluffbruary prompts for June were grove, arbor, and formal, and a glorious patch of crocuses. June blew past me so um here we are.
Thanks for reblogging--let me know if I should tag or untag you.
Mycroft is playing his role as the British Government, protecting the reputation of the Royal Family.
After six weeks of uncertainty, one of them finally decides the time is now.
Spoilers? Oh, go on, then.
Mycroftâs gaze sharpened. Greg met it, then entered the salon and checked the empty corridor.
When he turned, Mycroft stood between him and the door.
âWhatâre you playing at?â
Mycroft advanced until Gregâs hips met the table. One hand settled beside Gregâs, close without touching. His breath warmed Gregâs ear.

I worry a little bit that people who refuse to learn about ai as a part of their anti ai position are going to be extremely unprepared to understand whatâs actually scary about it and already have their digital literacy at risk tbh
not that I am some genius in this regard but if you follow ai developments even slightly you might change the things you are most worried about. do people know the extent to which ai is already eating itself and how meaningless this is making swaths of the internet. do people know that there are plenty of random mid-sized companies today buying their employeesâ likenesses to create digital clones and using these to make hundreds of videos. I am so much more worried about labor and surveillance and abuse than people becoming lazy about writing emails. and idk man I sort of like and respect people who are willfully ignorant about it as a way of minimizing its force in their lives and I am in some ways jealous but also when I see posts that basically still boil down to âchatgpt will never fool meâ I am like đđđ for one thing not the only thing to be concerned about, for another thing I am really sorry but I donât think youâre right
Exactly. I think about this a lot when I see "ChatGPT is always confidently wrong" arguments, not because genAI is often right, but because the argument doesn't work on people who actually use it regularly.
It isn't always wrong. It's often correct enough for the average person's day to day usage. If you say, "it always gives misinformation", they're going to ignore you because just that morning it gave a perfectly functional summary of their meeting's notes. It correctly identified some vegan restaurants in their area. It accurately calculated some math for them.
If it was always wrong, no one would use it. The danger is that you can never tell when it's going to be wrong, and when it's right enough that people start to trust it and not double check anything (automation bias), the things it gets wrong become catastrophic. Sometimes automation bias is so bad that mistakes compound and proliferate for ages before anyone catches it (ie: the company who were making financial decisions based off of hallucinated forecasting).
The technology itself isn't even bad on its face. Like, create me a program that can process text and respond naturally to human questions? Cool. Sounds like the computer in Star Trek. If that's what they intended to make, it wouldn't be so bad. The computer from Star Trek isn't replacing people in their jobs, it's there to help them do their job more efficiently. The people on Star Trek take the computer for what it is: a machine with limits and flaws. No one is constructing a religion around the computer's imagined sentience, they're not asking the computer to write their personal logs, or take the imagined burden of creativity off their shoulders. They use it as an outlet for creativity via the holodeck and an assistant in their work.
If that's what the tech companies were trying to create, that'd be fine.
Instead, they've made syncophantic, theft-fed, plausibly deniable lying machines that they trained with the labour of thousands in nations with atrocious protections for workers and that they sell by telling management that the latest version of the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation's Inconsistent Reinforcement device 5.0.0.6.7 will totally be able to do your job better than you can. And the bosses are buying in.
That's not the computer from Star Trek. That's not even Data.
This has been my main argument against "AI" from the very beginning.
OpenAI scraped the entire web. All of which had been a labor of love from humans. Wikipedia is the backbone of a lot of LLMs, and that was volunteer human labor. They stole it and now they're selling it back to us.
And worse, they're trying to destroy the free sources that they stole from. It's destruction of human knowledge on an unprecedented scale. The burning of the library of Alexandria has nothing on this.
many women are excited to get old and weird, but i have great news that it's fully possible to become weird now, before you get old. just imagine the heights of weirdness you will be able to reach in fifty years if you get started now. that's what I think
Bill Shatner is all âSpirk isnât canon !! you guys are so stupid !! theyâre just friends !!â Baby then what was all that you were doing every week for three years in a row⌠were you actually just really in love with Leonard Nimoy because thatâs the only other explanation i can think of

Hello! Long time since I last posted.
Here's another animatic I've been working on in the past 2 months. I would've finished it in June, but I got sidetracked with Yuri McSpirk, so please excuse the sudden difference in art style halfway through the video. ^^'
Song: "POV" -Ariana Grande
Itâs wrapped up with glitter and glitz,
But wouldnât be played at the Ritz.
Now Sherlock does fear
That he and John, here,
Are stuck with this bandâs greatest hits.
'Tis a Gift is on AO3.
I wonder if you think you know
What gift that could be? Well, if so,
Please share it with me
And fill me with glee
