#for the the self/peer review...

[dradelcra]

Me, writing an essay with another person, being corrected as we write: Hmm, maybe i'm not as good at writing essays as I thought...

Writes a single essay for the same class: *5/5*

Me, with new academic validation: Girl, nevermind! lol

#she is not going to like what she reads #for the the self/peer review... #i'm going to feel bad #only because i'm going to have to listen #to her maybe or maybe not complain #i've been writing analytical papers and #essays since grade 10 #up to 13 #in history #geography environmental science #and geology geography for two years in college #and yet i STILL doubt my abilites #Emancipate me from this mind settttt #lil talks

A yes, the three kinds of Autism:

(RE: was found on video referencing Autism)

#autism #secret third thing #secret third option #autistic #self diagnosed autism #officially diagnosed autism #diagnosed autistic #peer review #the peer review hits hard ngl #I once asked my friends #hey i think i might be autistic #and they replied with #YOU DIDN'T KNOW???

[metamatar]

sometimes i really think the criteria for some white people to make "friends" with us is "will you let me be racist around you"

#i got a peer review from someone im friendly with where they self deprecatingly referred to themselves as a mongoloid #im considering how to bring this up after rn #cw: racial slurs

My kotlc enjoyers pspspspsppspspsppspspss have some sketches for a fic im writing :D (Before I Burn)

It’s set in precannon, around 20 years before the current TL (So like, the 90s) following Kenric and Oralies navigation of Elvish Bureaucracy, classicism and inter-species politics. Also Brant is his brother and Kenric is desperately trying to dispute ability restriction — I’ll put the summary in the replies but if ur interested give it a read

#art #fanart #keeper of the lost cities #kotlc fandom #kotlc kenric #kotlc oralie #kotlc brant #councillor kenric #councillor oralie #Brant [redacted] #< he’s a fathdon btw #if u even care #kotlc fic #kotlc black swan #Koralie #koralie fanart #councillor kenric fanart #councillor oralie fanart #Brant fanart #kotlc fanart #constantly fighting the balance between the need for peer review and the joy of creating silly things for one self #this is basically for joy and whimsy #which is funny bc it is a tragedy at the core of the story #any Koralie centric cannon one is 💀 #I love the doomed by the narrative trope

reading about autistic meltdowns is crazy. in retrospect maybe that time i ended up sobbing self isolating and lashing out at people because I couldn't figure out how to set up my laptop the same way it had been before might've been because of The Autism

#i cannot deal with changes to things I deal with regularly #i need to have my phone and comp exactly the same lest I Suffer bc i use them every day #also perhaps i would get so upset over my mom cleaning my room (although being a nice gesture) is because she would move shit to places- #i didn't know and messed up the system i had #also fuckin. executive dysfunction. that's some shit isn't it #i had to move to a new desk early in my job to run a different room and the desk setup was different and I Was Struggling A Bit #also people trying to calm me down during meltdowns is significantly worse and i read a bit that was like. #'trying to interject into the meltdown may cause additional sensory overload. it's most safe to let the person self-regulate.' well shit #that's about right huh #autistic burnout also seemed very familiar and its a little disturbing just how close everything hits #anyways im probably autistic. good night #mossy's rambles #text post #luci's rambles #autism #neurodivergent #autistic things #autistic adult #autistic experiences #if anyone would like to add to the pile and tell me im autistic feel free ig. ive already been peer reviewed

Thoughts/behaviors that are hella autistic, in hindsight:

Not sending a message/thought in a group chat until someone else does first because I don’t know what the “appropriate” amount of time to wait to switch topics is (especially if the previous topic was sad/heavy or celebratory).

Full-on copying wording and movement from employers/people of authority because anything they did without being judged for got added to the “socially acceptable in this context” list.

Waiting until I was alone to jump up and down, shake, or squeal.

An infinite amount of other things I will continue to notice and recognize.

Need to rant.

I spent an hour and a half working on The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck. I only got 50 pages in. The reading is easy, but I’m annotating a LOT so it’s going super slow.

But I’m annotating a lot to remind myself of all the bullshit, so I can properly roast it. There are some good ideas and points in there but omg he sounds like an insufferable asshole writing a book for himself, ignoring that other people can have totally valid ways of being. Fatphobic undertones, implying there are definitely good values and like, limited ways to correctly prioritize them. I’m now 45% through. I am hate-reading at this point, and I’m torn between:

do I just want to finish it off quickly from here on out? (he has started going into specific things that are negative that he thinks everybody should value highly, versus talking more about his general philosophy)

Or do I want to keep going through slowly making notes ripping him apart.

On one hand: I’m definitely enraged and I kinda want it to end because it’s so irritatingly wrong. On the other hand: i want to give it such a scathing review because of its wrongness that I want to have everything wrong with it detailed meticulously because I enjoy that level of thoroughness.

I’m hoping there will be less to annotate tbh.

#seriously this dude is on such a high horse #he called everybody who feels less than adequate compared to peers entitled bc he assumed those people expect special treatment #nah some of us may not think we deserve anything at all and expect others around us to give 0 shits and treat us like they do everybody #he pretends like most people have a very shallow understanding of themselves #which is probs true #but the pretending is that he is like in the summit of Mt. Self Aware #when he is like 25% there and doesn’t go any further himself #confuses values and metrics #and while he says we can change both of those he basically only goes into why some values are bad and why his values now are the best #values are not good or bad inherently IMO #but sometimes we do confuse values and metrics #and something we say we value we actually are using as a metric for a different value #or like we have untrue thoughts about how to measure that value #I’ll do another ranty review when I’m done

why is his handwriting like this, why is the capitalization as consistent as a ransom note

#trying to collect as many instances of barry’s handwriting as i can and they’re almost always in all-caps #which i wish i could say was a kin moment but i think comic artists just do that w every character #danbles #barry allen #the flash #⚡️ #i’m thinking abt making him lefthanded but self-taught ambidextrous for his handcanon #i wanna ​do dc handcanons and i have a lot of ideas but i keep thinking smth’s gonna come up and i’ll realize i was way off #like if it was revealed that so-and-so is actually a nailbiter or whatever #maybe this should be smth i collab w multiple ppl. like peer review

Hey, just a thought. If TikTok will literally remove any content of importance if you don't censor the words, what if you used literally any other fucking platform where you didn't have to do that? Like, imagine if a large number of people used a different a platform to get across important messages that didn't remove their content for doing so! Do you think that maybe the people running highly censored platforms might get the picture? Do you think they might decide, oh hey, maybe we shouldn't do this or people won't join? Or do you think that by buying into this shit, other platforms might do the same, and then hardly anywhere can you have an important adult conversation about real issues? Like, come on. I understand it's not always as easy as "vote with your money", but *try*. There's actually nothing saying you have to belong to this or that popular platform. If it's too shit to actually get across an important point without a ridiculous workaround, don't use it.

#I never could get into twitter for that reason #the stupid character limit #not on TikTok either #I'll watch a video that's passed peer review #but like... #why wasn't the whole thing with HongKong enough to make people say fuck this platform? #come on #like if tumblr goes that route I'm gone #I'm not fucking self-censoring regular words describing regular occurrences in the real fucking world on the goddam internet #“unalive” “seggs” like fuck off

[owlmylove]

next time u try to say “bc i’m an idiot” or “what i’m doing is dumb” just F

UCK that and say “bc i’m a genius” and “this is brilliant”. the secret to self confidence is cultivating the unearned hubris of a mad scientist

#but still obeying peer review processes y'all!!!! #if any of y'all still suffering the slings and arrows of self-deprecation #it's 2023 babes lets get you some fucking hubris

because twitter is now a monkey brainchip wasteland and tumblr is a dying niche hellsite, there is now a genre of poster who is literally just "i have a tumblr AND a twitter account. and also a tiktok" and they are the only ones bridging this social gap that would otherwise tear society apart i think.

in art history you learn that artistic movements build on what people already understand .and. i think shape language goes all the way back to the earliest art we ever drew and we've just been iterating on it since then. not because it's human nature but because we are all just doing what the guys before us did. and if you look you can find things that most artists/art consumers would've been able to pick apart during that period, but we have to be explicitly told to understand, because the symbolism didn't stick. bare feet in the renaissance. fandom jokes that only make sense if you tuned into a specific cartoon redub stream weekly. and like. neolithic cave paintings!!! they move in flickering fire light! they're animated! but we had to figure that out because the artform got lost over the millenia. but until we did we were sort've Not Understanding that art form. we were missing such a massive piece that it was significantly less comprehensible.

anyways tiktoktumblrtwitter reposters are keeping us from becoming utterly incomprehensible to each other by keeping us up to date on the art-comedy-languages of other websites. and one day we will all be totally incomprehensible to ai art enjoyers . because they are just iterating on what came before without intentional or slow change influenced by their surroundings like we are. so they're gonna be stuck in 2019 forever while we're all using triabgles as an allegory for the death of computers or something

#shoutout to my favorite genre of posters: peer reviewed cat tiktoks #this was literally just meant to be that but also i have wanted to post smth about how i think ai art enjoyers are going to miss out #on like. Culture. for a while. but i didnt know how to put it #so you can get the original post experience by just not clicking the read more #oh and btw that is a tragedy. its a self imposed and very easily corrected tragedy but it is still sad. but its also very easy to learn #visual languages. unlike the cave art example. because the artists and art consumers who are not ai. will. still be alive. and stuff

Any tips on the process of finding more obscure lore? (And what I mean by that is interviews or not commonly found lore)

I kinda look up to you and I wanna try to find somethings personally and make my own posts about Splatoon lore.

-Have all the artbooks. Spend too much time poring through them. Some 'findings' i see are stuff the artbooks, and it ends up being surprising for many because many don't have the artbooks!

- think critically. question hearsay. strive for veracity. Is there a source? a lot of misinfo spreads in the splatoon community (and well. Life in general) because people don't do this.

- know how to navigate some Japanese. This one's unfortunately important for finding new stuff since splatoon is a japanese game and most of the content is in that language

-have autism

i really appreciate the vagueness of how willpower is defined by gl comics. its a very broad subject to begin with but in combination with how the series treats authority, you get the impression that to the guardians the term “will” was meant to be understood, or was at least implied, as the ability to enforce your power onto others. like jokes about how the corps are just space cops have been made to hell and back but in the end the green lanterns are, rather blatantly might i add, a direct comparison to the police force. narratively, the members have the same functionality as cops. 

so its this line of thinking that then redefines sinestro’s actions (i.e; establishing a dictatorship on his home planet, creating the yellow lanterns, etc.) from someone acting as an outlier to someone who is doing exactly what the guardians wanted him to. after all, if “will” is defined as an extension of your ability to enforce power, then the logical progression of that rhetoric would be to use that power to impose control. the most effective way to do so is through fear, and well, before hal came around, sinestro was considered to be the best gl in the corps. clearly he was doing his job right if he was that effective at keeping the peace. 

in contrast, hal and the rest of the human green lanterns operate on the idea that will is the force that’s use to drive themselves forward. in fact, hal’s life can be sufficiently characterized by a distinct lack of the same control that sinestro abides by. that doesn’t mean that he isn’t a cop, because he IS still acting as an enforcer, but that the conflict between him and the guardians is because of this differing set of motivations. hal, rightfully, has his doubts about his role within the corps and how his morality interferes with his duty to it. it’s why he ultimately decides to violently crush the entire system rather than let it continue. 

to sum it up, the gl comics are about police brutality and power imbalances. this was blatantly obvious in the 90s and even in the 00s when geoff johns’ was writing for the title and glorifying the corps, his reassurance that the green lanterns were necessary to keep the peace only ended up contributing to the running motifs. all of this to say that the subjectiveness of what “willpower” is defined as contributes a fuckton to how i view the series as a whole. 

#i sent this to karol for Peer Review and they made a really good point about how this then added a new dimension to hal killing sinestro #but there wasn't really a nice way to add that part in so its going in the tags #like gl writers are idiot savants when it comes to the conflict b/w the self and authority to the point where its like THE central thesis #so acting as if the corps are upgraded park rangers or smth feels like a disservice to the entire series #dc #.thoughts
