Haven't Watched S3 For These Exact Reasons

Haven't watched s3 for these exact reasons

missing season one when the only couple in the friend group were john b and sarah, like why did they have to ruin the characters' dynamics by pairing together every single character?? as if in order to have a "happy ending" you have to be with someone or else you'll be miserable

and don't even get me started on jiara, those two have the biggest siblings energy and they just end up together because of the annoying fans who harassed madison and rudy and pushed the jiara agenda ughh they had zero chemistry and it felt so forced that it physically hurt me to watch their interactions, every scene was just so so bland and boring and yet people love them? kiara lierally said "i love you dude" and jj was like "thanks, great" lmaoo what are we talking about?

the fact that even rafe and barry have more chemistry than them and with way less scenes together says a lot tbh

also i really hate the fact that the writers had kie be with every boy!! she's her own person and they did her dirty with all this stupid relationship business, just leave them friends for god's sake it's not that hard

Hot take of the day:

As a lesbian, not wanting to date trans women (both pre-op and post-op) doesn't make me transphobic. I can't control what I'm attracted to. I still support & respect trans women (and trans people in general) but I'm just not attracted to them, and that's fine 💗

I don't know why this makes me sob

In the Eragon-verse it's implied that dragons are already semi-cognizant within their eggs and can choose when to hatch. Which just makes it all the more wild and kind of heartbreaking that Thorn hatched for Murtagh when he did? Like, what was his fetal thought process? Wow, this guy's got problems! Anyone gonna join him in having an absolutely awful time? And then Thorn didn't wait for an answer.

This is so adorable 😩✨

I saw a video today where they tried to explain it... still have no clue how this works 😅

What is this about the tumblr staff wanting to sell art data to midjourney?

An ex-colleague of mine mentioned yesterday that there may be contacts between Automattic and midjourney in that direction, but nothing is public yet and I don't have any more info. They probably won't have anything specific to share either, since they left the company weeks ago too. That being said:

I have no reason to doubt my ex-coworker word, they are a trustworthy person.

Tumblr's CEO has been absurdly enthusiastic (comically, even) about AI, and is a big fan of LLMs and 'AI' companies.

A deal with midjourney could solve tumblr financial issues (not the same company, but openAi is paying up to 5 million/year to news companies to use their content as training data... tumblr generates several orders of magnitude more content than any newspaper or any media company and it only would need a 20 to 30 million per year deal to be profitable)

So I don't have any extra info yet, but I'm keeping my ears open.
