BABY WAKE UP THIRTEENBULLETS JUST POSTED

Do you guys think Soap is the kind of guy that genuinely thinks that wearing socks and not kissing or talking about it afterwards cancels out the gay sex he’s having with Ghost

most female pop singers are a face used to market songs written and produced by men, styled and choreographed and directed by men, dressing men's thoughts up as women's thoughts and then convincing the world this is how women think and feel because men's words are coming out of a woman's mouth

OCD symptom i struggle with but don't see talked about a lot: inability to trust your own memory and/or perception.

as an example: i put my headphones in my bag. i say im sure they're in my bag, but what if i imagined putting them in my bag? i have to check, so i stick my hand inside and grab them. but then i have to check *again* because what if i just so happened to have another object shaped and sized exactly like my headphones that i just forgot about? so i have to pull them out of my bag and look directly at them to fully confirm they were in my bag

this is a fairly benign example but this also happens with other worse scenarios for me and it's. not fun

the worst part about ocd and ocd-like tendencies is that you think hyper-analyzing your thoughts and constantly psychoanalyzing yourself will fix you but that's actually part of the disorder. it's the disorder. disordering.

quick drawing to put into my final haha

i hate driving. here are the laws! if you break them there will be consequences! except youre also expected to break the law just a little bit. people will get mad at you if you dont. you dont have right of way but the person who does is waving you forward for some reason. here's the speed limit! it's not the speed limit, the actual speed limit is that plus ~5-10. the light is green but you're in the turning lane. can you go? should you have gone just then? the person behind you is honking at you. there's a weird noise coming from your engine; if you try to do the right thing and get it checked out, will you get scammed? you are driving a 1-2 ton metal machine rocketing at speeds unknown to humankind for most of history. around a million people die in car accidents every year; that's about one person every thirty seconds. if you take that seriously and try to drive safely then people get mad at you.

JACK SCHUMACHER as YANCY GREY in RANSOM CANYON (2025—)

It's my birthday today! The best present for me would be a reblog of my work.

reunion :)

(heavily inspired by “all that’s said in the low light”)

maybe this is just me idk

to me the appeal of pathetic vampires is similar to the appeal of stupid cats. you have the teeth and claws to rip through flesh to your heart's content, but here you are. paw stuck to a quilt. staring woefully with eyes the size of saucers to get someone to help. same goes for a vampire failing miserably to use a touchscreen because his fingers are too cold.

I need to know how you think of the composition for your art pieces. They're so well put together it's actually so beautiful. If I could I'd eat them like a starved dog

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!! im sorry i know thisbus kind of annoying but genuinely i have no clue other than walking in circles in my room and imagining cool ways to draw them

buttttt honestly i feel like i do a lot of art unconsciously anyways so my theory is

artist inspirations!! a big one is hereticceramics on instagram AMAZING composition,

oyasumi pun pun’s panel progression is a big one like inio asano shows a close up of the characters face changing as they express emotion

i also do a lot of print making in school, line lino, terapak, screen prints, etc so im a big fan of just how they look

like im a big fan of a border around an image like a screen print, or the scratchy look of lino, or the layering you can do with s tetrapak

honestly with all my stuff i kinda just imagine what i think is cool

like just what tickles my inspiration, it can highkey be anything tho like the editting style of my animatics are based off of the mw2 briefing screens, the pixel-ey look and the way everything jumps in layer by layer

i dont do it as much in my cod art but i wanna implement my swirly bits more and those are inspired by this flower i saw at my friends house

also i was in central and got this brochure from this march of climate change denying farmers and like lol but i loved the old ass text and the really badly printed images on it looked cool

so it can highkey be anything

but anyways tehee im sorry if i yapped so intensely

I'm actually obsessed with this

if our icons were in the same room together, would you eat me 😔

Most likely, but I'd do it out of love ❤️

I saw this image posted on reddit and it immediately made me think of this fic written by Hayfever_street. It is one of my favourite pieces of writing ever. It seems like smut at first (why I read it in the first place lmao) but the actual storyline is filled with so much mystery and suspense that kept me hooked throughout the singular night I read it in.

The story alternates between Ghost and Gaz POVS (at one point Soap as well) and the way those two are characterised is absolutely genius. The author is so skilled at what they do. I will pay people money to read this, and all their other works.

Waste Disposal.

such a fun stream!! it was amazing seeing the process of this amazing piece

I am streaming some more art on twitch.tv/sixleggedboar right now

I'm sorry to keep plugging it, but while I slowly draw PART 2 (and look for places that are open to printing adult content), I want to mention again that PART 1 of my nandermo doujin is available on AO3 (any support for it would be greatly appreciated!) 🫂💕

Also thank you for those who voted in my polls about whether or not you would like to see it as a physical book 😀 Depending on how part 2 is received, i am now heavily considering to make a small quanity of physical books for it.

people using ai to generate fics is terrifying because large language models are getting better and better at approximating real writing, for the very reason that they steal more and more work from real writers every second.

ai generated writing has become sophisticated enough that often you truly have to rely on a gut feeling that what you’re reading isn’t written by a human. as bi says in her post, it’s the same as ai images that just have a certain look to them. sometimes there are specific “tells” you can pick out as evidence, but sometimes there aren’t.

ultimately what ai writing lacks is a true understanding of what is being written.

crucially, large language models aren’t actually intelligent. the way they work is simply predictive text on steroids. they generate words based on the words that come before - when they start a passage of text, they don’t “know” where it will go. this is why sources like chatGPT consistently give incorrect information, it doesn’t know what it is telling you, it is only regurgitating words in a human-like order based on the swathes of information it has stolen from other sources.

one thing ai writing will always lack is a true thought-out plot. it will constantly repeat itself. it will have plenty of adjectives and similes and “creative” synonyms, it'll be rife with cringey wattpad tropes as bi mentioned, because it is entirely unoriginal.

what frightens me is a future where the difference becomes indistinguishable to laypeople or casual readers, especially those who aren’t writers themselves. making accusations is near impossible without evidence and we don’t want a world where real art is dismissed simply out of ai paranoia, but the thought of a world where real authors are sidelined in the industry because readers are sated by robot-written slop is genuine nightmare fuel.

all this to say, i guess, is human writing can never be genuinely replaced if readers and writers are aware that ai generated work is hollow, meaningless, unoriginal garbage whose very production is harming our planet. or, rather, that readers continue to care that the art they consume is produced by a human being.

i honestly don’t know how anyone can stomach to read or enjoy work produced by ai knowing that there is no human feeling behind its creation. all i can do is hope the majority feel the same.

I love the way it says metal. I can't get enough

Words cannot express how much I love this bird.

The Irish absolutely love these crisps. I was once in a museum in Ireland and they had an old packet of these in there. That's not even the best part. There's a whole theme park dedicated to these crisps.

potato chip from ireland

look at this friendly, distinguished gentleman

hallo!

Oh my god yes!! In those tight shorts that cover absolutely nothing when being lifted

Hear me out and if this has been done before ignore me: ghost and soap as rugby players doing the lift thing (you know the one)

Everyone's favourite war criminal!!

The lighting is amazing in this holy moly
