Thought For The Day

No matter how many years you put in there’s always a surprise in store. You find out how people feel about you and it’s not at all what you thought.. most of the times, there’s so much warmth and love there. What I know for sure is that letting the people you know that you care about how awesome and amazing they are never gets old. In fact, it’s cherished. Never miss an opportunity to let those…

#my art #i tried doing one of those doodle pages. idk i dont think it worked #i'll do better next time #you think nanako calls yosuke yosuke-nii #that would be really cute #i think they would play dress up with nanako and teddie #souji happily and yosuke begrudgingly #the hanamura-dojima family <-delusional lols #okay but they're both big brothers...#it's so cute #also with the doodle on the right i think souji would fluster yosuke on purpose and yosuke would do it without thinking #he'd be like “you're so smart partner of course you got the top scores”#doesn't he basically do that already #“it's as if i got the highest score myself!”#yosuke's gay ass #sorry i'm rambling on these tags #someone let me talk to them about souyo please please please #let me just spam your dms #with my headcanons #if you got this far uhhh... drop your favorite souyo headcanon in my inbox + a souyo prompt and i'll draw it :)

Don't talk to me; I'm still recovering from the fact that the first computer-synthesized voice to sing in 1961 - the IBM 704 - sang Daisy Bell, a love song.

#positivity #do the computers know i love them #sometimes i watch the recording of the audio and it blows me away that i can do that #like yes daisy bell was a very popular song from 1892 but the point still stands #there were a million simple songs to give the computer to sing and the one that was chosen talked about enduring love #so yes you can be apathetic about it and say that there's no point in thinking about it deeper than a proof of concept for 60s tech #but i say nonsense to that - nay i will not stand for it here. everything is deep. everything is significant #to teach a computer a love song is the highest form of humanity and i don't care if that's dumb #hot take (semi-related): computers have humanity in them. humans made machines. we gave them purpose and existence.#(that's not saying that computers are 1:1 human BUT that humans made those machines - everything out there originated because of us)#(and i think that's why i don't buy that machines are more neutral than a human especially in judgement)#(a machine has whatever judgement their people had while making it. it isn't neutral at all based on the technology we have today)#i'm not obsessed with machines but i've learned to respect and admire them for what they are #i'd say that i would want to learn about tech for fun but i'm not enthused by it like other transsexuals are

I am obsessed with how narratively convenient Lark's divinatory abilities are. She's the only one of the protagonists who is both pragmatic and has a working sense of self-preservation, so having some internal impulse that is actually the guiding hand of the cosmos pushing her into doing the REALLY stupid shit is both necessary and really useful.

Like, I am the type of writer who kind of scoffs at the idea that characters are beyond the writer's control and will completely screw over your outline, because on one hand, a sensible outline will follow the characters' personalities and tendencies anyway. Obviously in an ensemble cast you will need to do some wrangling, but in theory your characters are responding to varying degrees of stimuli in order to maneuver them into the places you need them to be for things to all come together in the end.

But more importantly, "curse from god" is the funniest and easiest way to push any character to do things beyond the realm of reason when necessary, and frankly, what the fuck is the point of playing god if you don't embrace that?

#midst podcast #midst spoilers #cr meta #anyway at all times I am advocating for taking full responsibility for your characters and overall story #this is also why I laugh at those posts like 'um if you're not going to treat your characters right then you shouldn't get custody of them'#sorry babe there is no CPS in my head. I am the cruel custodian and these are my poor darwinian orphans.#that's a joke but really like. look. yeah sometimes you gotta fabricate scenarios to make characters do what you want #but like... you do that by going 'who is this character and what would it take to push them to x'???#and especially in an ensemble cast sometimes that thing is 'curse from god' or 'divine insight'#fun fact: I LOATHE that post about 'my writing teacher made a joke that the characters are driving and the writer is locked in the trunk'#absolutely fucking hate it.#because THE WHOLE POINT OF FORMALLY LEARNING WRITING IS LEARNING HOW TO BE INTENTIONAL.#it is perfectly possible to write successfully without ever having a formal teacher but IF YOU HAVE A FORMAL TEACHER. UH.#like yeah yeah 'workshopping' but like. okay go build your own workshop group don't pay somebody jfc #(cuz it's not like most creative writing teachers know how to teach you to workshop. let's be fucking real.)#if you wanna learn how to workshop take a script class for the love of god.#ANYWAY rant over but I'm correct. the highest purpose of a writer is to be a control freak and to play god.

also, thinking now about how boba’s relationship with mirta is practically the polar opposite of the one jango had with him him. like,

jango with boba: you are my heir, you are an extension of myself, you are everything i could have been, and i will do everything in my power to make you a perfect and uncompromising carrier of this legacy.

boba with mirta, gripping her shoulders: our bloodline is fucking cursed and i will do everything in my power, including literally actually dying, to prevent it from dragging you down with us

#WE LOVE A BREAKER OF CYCLES #also i like to think about the transformation of how boba views his family’s legacy #it starts out as a gift from his father. the highest honor. his ultimate purpose.#and it never stops being those things to him!#but also: it curdles. he talks about being cursed. tainted.#that legacy becomes something hungry and terrible something he has to fight to keep limited to himself and not his loved ones #he feels relieved when mirta marries into another clan. bc maybe that means she’ll escape.#maybe it means she won’t have to carry it like he did. at the very least maybe it means she can put it down #boba fett #boba fett meta #fett feels #mirta gev #jango fett

someday i'll write a long and in depth letterboxd review detailing Why, exactly, le otto montagne hit me the way it did but until that day comes. the thing i feel like i keep coming back to with this movie is specifically the ending and the way it COULD show us all ice and snow and winter, i.e. it's over, it's dead. and i think if the movie were more tragic, which it isn't really to me, it would work, but the thing is we see the ice melting, we see new life, we see things growing again. and part of this is to give us the last shot with the birds, but another part to me is the idea that things will still go on, nothing has changed really, spring will come and then summer and then fall and there will be another winter, and the house will fall into ruin again and it will all continue. but at the same time there is the dead tree, which is dead and isn't coming back. there are some mountains you can't return to etc etc

#neon has thoughts #like. life doesn't stop. but our and pietro's time with this story is over. if that makes any sense #it was and it happened and it ended and life will carry on but at the same time the tree is dead and it isn't coming back #ANYWAY. le otto montagne film of the year and winner of every award in my heart #the first time i noticed the dead tree it was like being punched in the stomach. 10/10 film #le otto montagne #there's a house with a hole in its roof but it's served its purpose #to me it's also really really important what pietro says about those like him who on the first and highest peak have lost a friend #i.e. there are eight and it is the highest and maybe most significant but he will carry on #despite everything there's still life and hope to me. which is why i don't think it's sad / tragic #it could have been but it isn't. it's intense sure but not sad

killing myself in front of my lit teacher and changing the trajectory of his life forever if i don't get an A on this essay tomorrow

#being Very Overdramatic here but the average gpa for this teacher's classes is 4.13 (on a sixth point scale with 6 being highest) and his #standards are insane. and i've built half my sense of worth on never getting something lower than the equivalent of an A for the term in lit #class #do you see the problem here.#the analysis for the work in question is three page long in the textbook while the analysis i just did for revision purposes is seven pages #god.

Thought For The Day

If there are moments you can provide of kindness, love and compassion, do it. Take the path of forgiveness and love every time. Holding on to the other only weighs you down. Be the joy for yourself and i promise you that ignites in everyone else you touch. It’s so rewarding to pick the greatest good and highest purpose each time you can. So what is that? It’s the tingle you get inside that…

don’t even ask me about it because it’s 3 at night and I’ve been listening to Nier OSTs and I’m having a brainrot with only my phone at hand so here are some sketches that I will refine because there’s so many good men outfits but I also wanted to reference some things from their actual design too and— /holds head in hand like wright/

#solo leveling #woo jin chul #sung jin woo #nier AU #get in bitch we’re going on depression adventure with Yoko Taro flavor #two idiots wandering on Earth without humanity and purpose to slay Monarchs #because honestly what else is there to do #jinwoo definitely climbs highest skyscraper just to yeet from it because it’s fun #you know how after self destruction we witness 2B’s booty?#how about self destruction jinchul but his coat gets yeeted and we witness his bare back #jinwoo self destructs and you get boyo in sleeveless turtleneck and skin tight gloves #you’re welcome simps now suffer with me in this jail

how did you get into typesetting? are there particular resources/guides you'd recommend?

i am so incredibly sorry, because the answer to your first question is almost certainly useless to you: when i was 9-12 years old i took a bunch of online math classes from the Art of Problem Solving. AoPS classes (at the time; i haven’t followed what they’re doing in years) were formatted as a chat room where the entire lecture was given in text format (vv accessible to me for both adhd and auditory processing reasons), occasionally the teacher would ask questions for you to type in a response to, and a few of the fastest correct answers would be shown to the rest of the class. especially if you used latex math typesetting to make it Look Nice (the chatroom had limited latex support).

i, a small child extremely interested in math and in Proving my Skills to the other faceless usernames in the chatroom, was super into this. with practice i eventually got really good at speed-typesetting math in latex; i also habitually wrote up all my homework in latex because my handwriting was fucking unreadable (probably because of the dyspraxia) and it was honestly simpler *and* faster than writing it on paper and scanning it.

so at that point i was just kind of in the habit of using latex whenever i wanted to make a vaguely technical document Look Nice. math camp qualifying tests. final papers for technical classes in college. personal notes and reference sheets (i’m much more likely to study things if my study materials are visually appealing, i’ve found). i discovered that with practice it *is* possible to take class notes, live, in latex, and that if you send your ~fancy~ latex notes to your friends in the class they will love you forever. plus the extra Challenge made it easier for me to pay attention in class (fuck you, adhd).

thus, when i got into ficbinding my basic approach was “download a random latex book template -> modify to my own tastes -> consult stackoverflow if anything goes wrong” and it works pretty well for me, because i’m an extremely bullheaded programmer with a decade of latex experience. would i necessarily “recommend” it to a beginner? …not really.

anyway i hear you can use ms word or another word processor to typeset fic/danmei? lots of people in the ficbinding discord seem to be pretty successful with it, and @armoredsuperheavy’s introductory ficbinding tutorial goes into some detail (all of which i fully skipped) about typesetting in word. i can’t really provide any help here, though, sorry :(

otoh if you DO want to take the plunge and go latex or go home, i’ve found that overleaf provides some pretty good basic guides to latex syntax; if you want, i can also send you some of my latex source files and talk you through what’s going on with them. you’ll almost certainly want to use the “memoir” documentclass (not “book”), so hit up ctan and download the memoir documentation while you’re at it. personally i don’t use overleaf because i am physically incapable of using any text editor without vim keybindings; you might want to start there because the live preview is super helpful for a beginner, but i have NO idea what font support is like. if you’re not using overleaf, i recommend installing xelatex on your local machine, and if you don’t already have a text editor of choice, sublime text is free* and has some nice latex extensions.

*it will occasionally nag you to buy a license but you can keep clicking “maybe later” indefinitely

(someone recommended ConTeXt to me a while back, but i can’t remember who it was. that might be a friendlier option?)

actually, would anyone be interested in me writing up a more detailed Guide to Typesetting Books in LaTeX for complete beginners/cleaning up and posting my book template? (i am bad at modeling what “a complete beginner” to latex typesetting knows, but i will beta test it on a long-suffering @combat-epistemologist.)

#the trashcan speaks #devil venerable also wants to exploit the memoir class for evil purposes #OH YEAH also if you have a html file or epub (e.g. from ao3) you can use pandoc to convert it to .tex #you can use pandoc on nearly ANYTHING actually. highly recommend pandoc #also the only reason i stopped taking aops classes was that i took ap calculus bc when i was 12 and that was the highest level they offered #so when i was 13 i had to start taking fuckin’ honors multivariable calculus or w/e cross-registered at a local college #and let me tell you. i missed the faceless online chatroom classes SO. MUCH.
