WAIT. another thing about the fireflies that pisses me off !! they knew ellie was coming right ?! Marlene surely told them that ellie would be brought to them via Joel assuming they both survived

so what — they didn’t tell patrols “hey keep an eye out for a fucking 14 year old?” like Joel and Ellie were looking for them. They could’ve walked into that hospital no problem. There was NO REASON to flash bang and knock them both out unless…..

unless they were planning this from the start. knock ellie unconscious. prep her for surgery. separate joel from her because marlene KNOWS how dangerous he is.

anyway. joel did nothing wrong. his choice was the morally correct one. i’ll die on this hill.

Before I trust your opinion on a work of science fiction, I need you to list everything intolerably bad about Firefly. If you can’t think of any, well, there’s the door; don’t let it hit ya where the Lord done split ya.

Stop using Adobe's programs

So far @adobe has been proving that they don't care about artist or creatives. Especially since they have started to use AI generators in not just their programs but marketing too.

Also their so called opt out option for their AI generator, hasn't been working. Artist have been coming out with proof that their work was still being used. Even though they opt out and on top of that all Adobe did to fix this was pay the artist. One artist was only paid around 300$, for their entire portfolio and remember this work will be re used as long as this program is still going. So to me that's a pretty unfair payment, especially since they opt out.

As far as I know of only one artist who had this issue got their work "supposably" removed from their AI generator. On top of that it was a popular artist (Loish). So it seems if they did do this. It was because the artist had a big following.

For those who do want to leave adobe here is a list of options. All programs that can replace any of Adobes.

Also a great artist made a good video about this subject. I fully recommend watching it if your interested.

Them: Wait, so, you think Tommy’s closet joke was actually hysterical and made you love his character even more instead of hating him?

“you being anti-israel is just internalized antisemitism!”-actually I find it more antisemitic that you’re conflating my ethnic identity with a genocidal government

Apologies for my recent radio silence. I've had a lot on my mind lately.

This post isn't Earthspark-related at all, but please read it.

I need to take a second on this blog to acknowledge some things going on in the world. I should not have stayed silent on this blog before, but I'm trying to fix that now.

Genocide in Palestine + how you can help Palestinians

You can buy e-sims for people in Gaza here. Anything helps.

Click here daily to help generate funds for Palestine. It's free and takes less than a minute.

Here's a list of where you can donate to help Palestine.

(If there's anything I should add to this section, please let me know.)

The KOSA bill, what it's going to do if passed, and how you can help prevent it from taking effect

KOSA will essentially erase anonymity from the internet by requiring people to upload their government ID or other form of identification to any social media site, as well as restricting resources and information on LGBT rights, history, racism, and more. This bill will censor the entire internet and destroy privacy while violating First Amendment rights and potentially putting minors in danger.

This also could very well mean the end of Tumblr, and I'm not exaggerating here.

Tomorrow KOSA could be passed in Senate, and from there it will need to pass in the House of Representatives before being signed into law by the president. It's not doomsday yet, but it is a dangerous situation-- and here's what you can do.

StopKOSA.org provides you with a template email to send to your representatives. You can leave it how it is or edit it to say what you want, and then send it from their website.

The website also allows you to call your representatives and gives you a template of what to say.

BadInternetBills.org, run by the same people, takes action against KOSA as well as other bills like EARN IT. At the time of posting this, over 356,000 people have signed this petition.

Additionally there are several petitions on change.org to help stop KOSA. Here are a few of them.

STOP KOSA

STOP THE KOSA

Stop Kosa

Save Humanity, Oppose KOSA

STOP THE KOSA ACT

(Again, please let me know if there's anything I should add.)

One last thing-- The evolution of AI images and video.

I don't really have anything good to say. AI is evolving fast and changing the world as we know it. We are adapting, but nobody knows how this really is going to end up.

A few quick points:

AI images are not art. That's all. AI "artists" who genuinely claim to have made something of their own just by typing a prompt into a generator will be blocked. (Which has been in my rules for a while, but I still think it needs to be said.)

I recommend Glaze for artists who don't want their art being scraped and used for data training. Especially with the recent rumors of an upcoming deal between Tumblr and Midjourney. There's also a similar program called Nightshade (haha, earthspark reference? anyone?🦉) that I haven't tested myself but have heard good things about.

-----

That's all, I suppose. Reblogs are good, if you don't mind.

Spread the word about KOSA. Contact your representatives. Sign the petitions.

Support Palestine if possible. Donate if you can. If you are unable to donate, make sure to do your daily clicks.

Stay safe and take care of yourselves. ❤️

hello!! hope you're all doing well :]] could we please have a userbox that says "this introject has few/no source memories" ?? please and thank you!!

Heyo! Thanks so much! Anddd of course you can! :3 We'll do them separately so that they can be used for different alters if needed!

this introject has no source memories ;

and this introject has few source memories ;

If anyone else wants different versions, feel free to send in another ask with the alter term you'd want!

[help-an-alter]

Hi first off this blog is awesome and I think this is such a cool idea. Secondly we just found out about a new subsystem of fragments and we need some help with their names and such.

It’s a Kpop/Idol group each one based on different colours of the rainbow. (Including light and dark of each colour) would it be okay to ask this all in the one ask or would you prefer separate asks for each? They’re still undecided on gender so any for names and pronouns would be fine.

Sorry if this is a lot.

Also could we claim 📼🌌 if possible?

Hi anon ! mod firefly here ,, you can totally claim that :3 thanks for giving the blog compliments !!! We'll separate it by the colours !

Someone actually said every show should have a female character like Kaylee from Firefly.

You know, the “no formal training” spaceship engineer. Because an interplanetary rocket is a fucking hippie van. The character who’s such a goddamn Manic Pixie Dream Girl cliche that, despite having had a crush on Jewel Staite since Space Cases, she is by far my least favorite character in the show—and I hate every single one of them!

Every show is already trying to have that character, and that’s about a third of why media is a dumpster fire right now.

[spooky-donut-ghost-house]

As much as I would love Logan getting his shit wrecked by The Wyatt 6 he simply is not worthy to be apart of Bray's legacy

[imakatperson22]

Once again, y’all are EMBARRASSING this fandom on instagram.

The creators KNOW buddie is the fan favorite. Harassment in the Instagram comments is going to do way more harm than good. What if they decide they don’t want to make buddie canon because they don’t want to wander into fan service territory? You’re going to ruin it for the rest of us.

Just enjoy and support the story we have now. Count your fucking blessings. We got canon bisexual Buck, a historic win for the queer community in terms of representation, which is way more important than smashing Buck and Eddie together like Ken dolls.

I want Buddie endgame as much as you do but I want it to be done right, well written and well thought out. Getting it now wouldn’t be doing their story justice.

Get a hold of yourselves, dammit.

shout out to the systems who don’t have a concrete label for their trauma

to the systems whose trauma was so many different things stacked up until it just overflowed and you couldn’t cope

to the systems who can remember or talk about various trauma memories, but none of them seem to add up to anything cohesive or connected

to the systems who just could not cope, even if other people think your trauma should have been manageable

i see you

(for our own comfort, endos please dni)

[yourfavisproendo]

Firefly honkai star rail is traumagenic & pro endo !! :33

Firefly from Honkai Star Rail is a pro-endo traumagenic system!

[chemicalarospec]

my dad invited me and my brother to watch Firefly with him and it's actually really good??? (idk why I expected it not to be-- probably because the last time I tried one of his old Spaceship Shows (the one with the puppets) it was too sexist and too slow to get through.) First of all it should have been ILLEGAL for them to not have a single Chinese character in this show, but as a Chinese person I do like the aesthetics of the show and how they mashed up traditional Western and Chinese styles. The pronunciation is hilariously bad (IF ONLY THEY HAD A CHINESE ACTOR, HUH), but I like it because it's funny. (Me and my brother do laugh out loud every time.)

But the characters are actually so good?? First of all we got THREE FOUR (I didn't count right lmao) female main characters, no smurfette principal here! One of them doesn't even have any implied romance so far okay technically River doesn't but I was thinking of Kaylee and she has a crush on Simon lol. Kaylee, my favorite -- I LOVE how her appreciation of girly feminine stuff is portrayed as something that should NOT be mocked and does not negate her more "masculine" role as the mechanic and that she can nerd out WHILE being feminine. There's also how Mal, the main character, and Zoe, his first mate, have a longstanding and deep connection that's entirely platonic! Men and women CAN just be friends! Do note, Zoe (who is awesome btw) is married to another man, the pilot who is honestly so far the most boring character, and Mal is interested in Inara. Who, speaking of, I also love how so far Inara's profession as a (unionized it seems!) sex worker is treated with respect. River is the most ~okay~ in terms of sexist writing as a weak and mysterious and mentally unwell but sexy woman, but since she's not the only woman it doesn't feel like a big deal. (I feel like she's going to become more grounded, at least I hope so because I want to see more of her personality!) Misogynistic comments are challenged when made! Of course the writing isn't perfect but it's a LOT better than what I expected (and if a modern show didn't do the things I'm praising here I would be offended btw).

Also River's brother Simon is a complete dandy (I think it would be stereotyping for me to call him gay lmao), I love that for him. Episode one he bleeds from his mouth like a dying c-drama boy-- I just had a Vision of the resemblance and now I can't get it out of my head, all he needs to do his open his eyes super wide and then he'd be a dying c-drama boy. He cares for his sister so much, it's super sweet even though he REALLY sucks at dealing with psychosis(? would that be the term to describe her episodes?). Book is an instant icon of course, he's just there forcibly being the moral compass lol. Christianity in space smh. Despite being mr sexism I also love Jayne's character - he's funny (love a guy who's always trying to kill) and the question of his loyalty is intriguing. Mal is a kind of a Generic Protagonist Man but his backstory is solid enough that means his brooding attitude actually makes sense. The "Badger" side character is funny/interesting too, and my bro says he looks like Captian Sparklez haha. (Wash (Zoe's husband) is there. Sometimes he's funny.)

Going back to the design, I am partial to Victorian or whatever aesthetics, so I love how they threw that in along with the cowboy thing, and there's a lot of individual pieces merging Chinese aesthetics with that that I think do a great job. It speaks to my mixed heart <3. The costuming is actually so fun (mostly speaking to crowd scenes), so many characters get to wear distinctive outfits . Also kind of Killjoys vibes because they say "shiny" haha. I respect how space shots have no environment noise, only cowboy music lollll. Visual effects are interesting; you can always Tell but it does seem to me the best they could do at the time.

Wow this post turned out longer than I expected. So a recommendation for Firefly I guess! Forewarning, the parts with the "Reavers" are pretty dark/grotesque -- actually, there's significant violence throughout the show, the Reavers are just the worst.
