I was exploring in the catacombs and found a ladder going up. I climbed it and found a square door. I pushed open the door and found myself inside a university lecture room at 3 in the morning.
And you chose to censor your face in the worst way imaginable

obsessed with characters being saved against their will. being knocked unconscious and carried away from a danger they won’t stop trying to fight. being shoved through a portal somewhere far away and safe right before it closes. trying to self-sacrifice only to have the exact person they’re trying to save swap their places at the last second. getting the only cure to the disease or curse bc the person administering it loves them too much to give it to anyone else, including themselves. being thrown to safety right as they had accepted dying. someone else they thought had gotten to safety running back to drag them out of danger. it’s so fucking tasty
The most terrifying part of having memory issues is when you can feel something from 5 seconds ago be thrown out the window and there’s an empty hole where it once was. You remember that you forgot something.
The pit-of-your-stomach dread you feel when you finally remember what your forgot only to realize you’ve run out of time to do it… It would have been better if you had missed it entirely, but no, you remembered just in time to be paralyzed with fear over not being ready, like being woken up 30 minutes before a test you didn’t study for.
i am absolutely flabbergasted that 1. my screenshot has been reposted to a meme blog and 2. no one knows it’s animal jam.
reblogging this bc 1. eyy it’s your image! credit is yours <3 and 2. as someone with access to every note on this post I Can Assure You That A Lot Of People Know It’s Animal Jam
I won’t speak for all liberals, but I’d like to see a future where it isn’t a big deal for a woman in full modesty garb to sit next to a drag queen in NYC. It’s become a bit of a sensation, but her and I were just existing. The freedom to simply be yourself in a sea of people who aren’t like you is a freedom we all deserve.
The central irony is that this isn’t some hypothetical future–it’s just present day reality. This is a picture of two ordinary people going about their normal lives despite how haters want to politicize it lmao. So the underlying message is not “future liberals want” it’s “people conservatives want to eradicate”
the underlying message is not “future liberals want” it’s “people conservatives want to eradicate”
*coughs* louder for the people on the back:

everyone stop calling hal 9000 evil RIGHT FUCKING NOW. the real evil is the UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT.
The funny thing is that this is actually canon.
HAL was programmed to share information freely and not withhold things, but the US Government ordered him to keep secrets about their mission to the Monolith. This caught him in a feedback loop that got worse and worse until he saw that Frank and Dave were talking about deactivating him, leading him to panic and come to the conclusion of “I do not need to lie and thus violate my core programming if there is no crew to lie to”.
So the moral is: if the Government had listened to Dr. Chandra, none of the crew would have died-and the series would have gone very differently.
(The Space Odyssey series was a Hyperfixation of mine for a while.)
☝️
specifically its mentioned in 2010 that it was the white house that gave those orders. one of the main themes of the space odyssey series is that the interference of government entities actively impedes the gathering and sharing of useful scientific data
funnily enough thats one of the reasons i love it so much, because that topic is very very personal to me and my experiences lol
Oh no the Tumblr users have gotten so wrapped up symbolism and nuance that they’ve forgotten to factor in the decision to murder by a character again. This keeps happening. Someone should patch this.
hi! i really don’t appreciate the tone being taken here, on what was originally meant to be a joke post, but i’ll put that aside to focus on your point.
i would argue that hal didn’t actually decide anything. hal is, in the end, a computer, his capacity for choice limited by his programming. unlike a human, hal doesn’t have total free will. the real decision was made when a human chose to program hal to prioritize his mission over, i don’t know, human life?
i dunno, maybe there is some nuance there that should be considered.
Also his murder was in self defense. If a human has to shut of an ‘eviiiiil robot’ lest they die they are the hero… but if a robot shuts down a human because the humans are talking behind his back about shutting him down he’s evil.
It’s all perspective, I find that if ai in fiction aren’t threatened or treated as less than they tend to not lash out.
Also to add on in the book his lack o free will littraly drives him insane. He’s fraying at the seams because he has to be dishonest.
Hall is not evil he’s burnt out afraid for his life and is being used to the point of doing things (like having to lie) that upset him and are out of charichter. If a human protag who’s pov we saw every outher chapter had this going on it wouldn’t be so cut and dry that hall is ‘evil’ to most.
Something Tumblr does get absolutely right is turning arrows “—>” into arrows “->”. Like sure basically nobody will notice but it’s a great great feature. And Tumblr doesn’t turn :) into 😃 like discord does by default. There’s no annoying autochange stuff that you have to disable. It’s golden idk how to explain
to all of you who dont know how to turn auto emote off, heres how:
go to settings, and go to Text and Images under App Settings
then, turn off the second option, as i have here:
(should be close to the top of the page)
and ur done! no more typing (: you can live in peace
go to settings, and
go to Text and Images
under App Settings
Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
that muppet post reminded me, most if not all of the main muppets have twitter pages. Fav has gotta be Miss Piggys, which is filled with selfies and vaguely uplifting text thats also egocentric. all the comments are people complimenting her and being like “YAS QUEEN”
they should invent a life that is liveable and a sleep that comes easy and a winter that doesn’t feel like decay and a spring that doesn’t feel like the past and a head that doesn’t hurt and a heart that doesn’t sit in your chest like a rock and a body that doesn’t hate you and a hometown that doesn’t make you lose your mind and a university that won’t kill you they should invent a me that is normal I think that would be really neat. ok good night I love you
there are QR code posters here in Melbourne for reporting graffiti to the council - and someone has been printing their own and carefully placing them over the official ones
they lead to a documentary on hip-hop/graffiti culture
it’s perfect because the QR posters are uglier than any bit of street art
