Follow The Leader (Ant Spiral)

block printed denim, cotton batting, thread, and gifted fabric backing

thinking about natural phenomena, repetition from a single block carving, adaptive and maladaptive behaviors, and dreams from years back where my blankets turned into swarms of insects

The Social Spiral.

Yesterday, I wrote a bit about echo chambers, social networks and ant mills. I had a conversation with ChatGPT about it – if you can call it a conversation – and it told me that the equivalent of ant mills couldn’t exist in human society because humans think critically. That seems like a hallucination. So I asked it if human critical thinking was in decline, and it gave me a list of pros and…

That's a good question! Now onto our next question

#i am the predator to your prey i am the boot to your ant i am the sky to the grass beneath your feet i am hunger i am thirst i am ache #little ants to whet my appetite. milling about as i watch from a universe endlessly bigger than yours #i am a god to your limited physicality #sure i vore wizards. i also cannibalize them and hunt them and tear their soft flesh apart with my teeth #little rabbits in my snare. i hunger and i feed. it is the circle by which we live. consume and consume and consume and consume and #you are little gnats within my web. am i not to sup upon your lifeblood? there is little else for you to do other than be eaten. #asks #gonna add a trigger warning for tags sorry y'all. kinda got a lil too in character #tw vore mention #tw cannibalism mention

We Humble Creatures

I sense the trail and forge ahead.

My path is locked, my fate is sealed

I follow Ariadne’s thread;

My future to the world I yield.

I lead and follow, all as one,

With one before and one behind

Parading round under the sun

We know the way, us leading blind.

With Sisyphean revelry,

The road, it stretches on and on:

Stay steady as you’ll ever be

And keep the scent, you won’t go wrong.

My limbs now tire, two by two,

But I don’t fret, I know the way.

I just turn right and I stay true:

The spiral wouldn’t lead me stray.

I put my life into its hands.

The spiral rules, its will prevails.

I crave the power it commands

And tune out brethren’s weary wails.

Ahead, a brother crumbles, spent,

On tired legs, a sad display.

I soldier on, ignore the scent

Of exoskeletal decay.

I pity those who I see fall,

But cannot weigh myself with grief.

It’s their own weakness, after all.

It’s all because of weak belief.

So on I march among the dead.

I’m in too deep, I mustn’t bend.

The others come and pull ahead:

Their fortitude, I must commend.

I cannot keep on any more,

My vision starts to blur and fade.

The soldiers march as if to war

With fevered feet and readied blade.

My fall is broken by the ground

While comrades chant their raptured cant

And trampling me as they march round.

I’m once again a humble ant.

#if it wasn't clear this is about an ant mill #poetry #tana writes stuff #this is for a class but im p proud of it

Kaiju Week in Review (December 4-10, 2022)

GigaBash's Godzilla DLC is now available, and they defied expectations (well, my expectations) by offering a lineup of Heisei Godzilla, Kiryu, Showa Gigan, and Destoroyah. I can't offer any insights into how they play, since I haven't had time to delve into this game, but they certainly look great.

An extremely special collection of Godziban episodes are out on Blu-ray and DVD. The main attractions are two all-new specials ("The Greatest Monsters on Earth" and "Mothra vs. Bagan"), starring the imposing lineup above, plus the entire Destroy All Monsters cast. Extended versions of the season 1 episodes "Son of Minilla", and "The Godzilla Who Came on Christmas Eve!" are also present, and the Blu-ray adds on the Godzilla Fest 2020 special episodes "The Xilien Who Turned Red" and "Lullaby of the Skies" and a behind-the-scenes featurette. Both formats come with a sizable booklet too. They're pricey, as is typically for Japanese home video, so as eager as I am to watch Bagan get pulverized by a couple of moths, I'll probably wait for someone to rip the Blu-ray.

Godzilla: Monsters & Protectors - All Hail the King! #3 is mostly Ghidorah doing Ghidorah things (although this might be the first time he's burned down Westminster, good for him). King Caesar can't wake up soon enough. This issue also plays a bit with All Hail the King's status as an unplanned sequel. In #2, Cedric questioned why King Caesar didn't intervene when Godzilla was on the brink of destroying the world in the original comic. The Shobijin have many abilities, but breaking the fourth wall isn't one of them, so they gave a vague answer about destiny, and it's just adding to the friction between him and Karen, a member of the family who can communicate with the shisa. Interested to see where they're going with this.

Tickets for the U.S. limited release (January 11/12) of Shin Ultraman are now live. Since Fathom primarily books at Regal, Cinemark, and AMC theaters, Fandango should allow you to see most anywhere it's playing near you. I will be dragging as many people as I can to the subtitled showing.

Mill Creek has issued the 1992 animated series Ultraman Kids: 3,000 Light Years in Search of Mother on DVD. I know nothing about it, and those designs are powerfully unsettling... but it's never even been subtitled before, so good on them?

Normally I wouldn't bother mentioning the millionth Godzilla crossover with a mobile game, but The Ants: Underground Kingdom is an unusual pick—it's a strategy game where you run an ant colony. These are clearly special ants, since the teaser shows them giving Godzilla a boost after King Ghidorah knocks him down. (I'd rather see him take on the ants from THEM! though.) The collaboration runs from December 16 to January 14.

idk what animal esteban should beeeee. i had ant pop into my head randomly which made me laugh but i haven't thought of anything better so he might just be an ant

#now. *most* of the characters i've assigned already are animals from the american southwest desert #however cecil's a cat and carlos is a human. which yknow COULD live in the desert but they don't have to #and more importantly and this probably won't make any sense but those are both animals that i see as very normal #in different ways #like cat is your run of the mill fisher price see n say fursona #and human i think speaks for itself #and i think ant is another very normal very basic insect but in yet another direction. do you understand #anyway it's just cute but i may choose something else who knows #flavor text #wtnv

Echo Chambers, Ant Mills and Social Networks.

By Clemzouzou69 – Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0 There’s been an ant mill, sometimes called a death spiral, that had gone viral on social media some time ago. It’s a real thing. Army ants follow by pheromones, and if they get separated from the main group, they can end up following each other in circles until they either find a path out or die of exhaustion. It’s mesmerizing to watch. It’s almost like…

#I know I'm a cringe nerd for this one but the actual science behind it is fascinating and it's so cool to #anthropomorphize the madness of #ant mill death spirals which are a crazy phenomenon and lord if you don't know I love bugs by now #I like this whole album and have listened to it lots but I think this is my favourite song on there #ask #ask game #music
