‘He stared at it, silhouetted against the frost-blue glow through the window, his breaths coming in quick and shallow as he waited for it to lunge. But even as he sat there shaking, it didn’t move. Slowly, his trembling arms eased their vise around his knees. Only then did the being finally move. Still, it wasn’t much. The bird-beak opened a fraction of an inch, and, in a voice as soft and low as the hollowing of the wind, it spoke.

“You seem cold.”

The fact that it— she —could speak, didn’t make her any less of a threat. Only a threat of a different kind.‘

So my brother ( @booklovertwilight and author of Glitter and Gold, where this is from)  needed a shinigami OC for his fic -- we talked, he showed me a few designs, and after six hours crafting an appropriately creepy design... Kroshi was born. :)

every time the NYT Crossword uses a long, load-bearing word that nobody outside of NYC has ever heard of, every subscriber should get a groupon voucher allowing them to break the editor's kneecaps

Next post I see that says "Ludex" instead of "Iudex" is getting thrown in the pit.

My niche, funny problem in this fandom is the times when there's a universal discussion going on about Artificial Intelligence and even little fandom blogs weigh in with their posts & reblogs - and almost every time I just sit there, extra confused before I finally realize that we're not all just suddenly bashing on Al (ex Turner) for stealing our jobs and starting a war on creativity itself.

Okay normally I find all the typos in here obnoxious (you’d expect the Collector’s Edition to have way fewer, right??), but this one’s objectively fucking hilarious

I absolutely hate to say it but if I were to make a romantic sans playlist Too Sweet by Hozier would be the premier fucking song

I know this has been said but I'm tired of the word "AI" being used for everything.

Firstly it's not AI! It's a program that's meant to consume data and regurgitate it into an amalgamation of that data. Which can be useful in CERTAIN fields with the proper ethics and backup. I am not 100% relying my life or savings to it.

Second, it's not new, we had this technology before, we just gave it more data and gave it the ability to steal our information and works. Take a look at face filters, we had those for a while and now I'm seeing ads that says there are AI apps that can turn you into a beauty queen. Chat bots are a prime example of that too, do you remember when YouTubers played with Eve bot? Or Chimp bot? That was around 2014, and we simply just gave those kinds of programs more info to reference off of.

The AI Coca Cola ad still pisses me off to this day, AI is not telling you what is the ideal Cola, it's a fucking database full of analytics and sells data!

AI is just a face to make more money, and it's also killing the environment!

this is a very random question, but for anyone who prints their handwriting (not cursive), is there any difference between how you write lowercase/capital c/C, o/O, and s/S, or it just size? i've gradually changed my handwriting to make all letters unique (and still readable), but those three still bother me. same with capital O and the number 0.

i'd be interested in seeing what handwriting-like fonts do, too.

I love knowing that whatever Death Note creations I make will get low numbers on Tumblr simply because out of deep respect for his character and mystery I refuse to tag L's full name even for post visibility purposes Related to that, I also respect AO3 for upholding the same idea and keeping his character name as just "L (Death Note)." Good job. L can be many but there is only one L.
