i also made my make·file work in dash (probably; we haven’t exercised ALL of its options yet), which is less embarrassing

apparently there’s a bug in my TSV parser

@coriander yes, and aren’t offered creative freedom

marvel has been demanding that studios create cgi that looks like ai for a decade so that nobody will notice when they make the switch

that's not what those studios would be doing if they had the choice

@coriander i’m being subtle about it but absolutely do i think the cgi trend is ultimately about alienating workers from the products of their labour, 100%

@coriander but if the stunts are real then people might have to acknowledge that actors are people who have a job and not just celebrities to write rpf about

anyway i’d really rather be writing fanfiction and contributing to the culture rather than dealing with this

my first thought in hearing about them calling cops on student protestors was, of course, the UC Davis pepperspray incident during the Occupy protests in 2011 <en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UC_Davis>

but my second thought, upon hearing that those arrested were to be suspended, was for all those people colleges are perfectly happy to keep having around

Show thread

y’all remember when they were all really worried about “ruining young boys’ lives” by suspending them from college or throwing them in prison

because i remember

anyway,

@aescling @wallhackio emo girls definitely like mushroom and swiss hamburgers, except for the autistic emo girls who find mushrooms sensorially distressing

anyway just thinking about all the little conflations between bourgeois lifestyle and professionalism

talking at a work meeting and guy mowing the lawn outside my apartment window like “that’s right bitch, i ain’t no landowner, now it’s everybody’s problem”

@coriander i think the internet got more bloated because it started being programmed by techbros instead of moms

also begging fanfic writers to read every sentence and go “is that right?? or did the LLM in my brain just conjure that?”

there are cases in english where italics ARE necessary or at least beneficial (case in point) but it is not in describing how CUTE somebody was

Show thread

if you are an author, please, i beg of you, just take like, a year off from italics, and only add them back in once you’re comfortable writing like that

Show thread

i think they should ban italics on fanfiction sites
