everytime i watch anything that has paul mcgann in it i always sit there afterwards thinking what a fucking tragedy it was that he never got seasons as the doctor.

Yk, I hate that adaptations keep making Peter a high schooler, and not just because it means he never evolves, but because the adaptations now also include wider Marvel, whitch usually (thanks to the MCU) is at the modern day stage with legacy characters and new age teen heroes, meaning that Peter is taking up Miles' spot and you can really tell when they put him next to someone like Kamala Khan or Sam Alexander who are Miles' pals. Tho Peter taking Miles' stuff is just a modern issue overall, just look at MCU whitch just stole and re-skinned Miles' personality, characters, story-beats, even the costume to an extent and then made it worse.

agree 👏

I AM EMOTIONAL AGAIN

[ganondoodle]

so with echoes of wisdom .. i havent watched any of the trailers beyond the very first one and the thumbnails/screenshots and what others have said about it-

but with the world inside the rift being called "Welt des Nichts" aka "world of nothing/void" in german ('still' in english, for some reason) and demises title in french being "avatar of nothing" ... yeah my anxiety is shooting through the roof again

(hopefully you can be a little more forgiving for me being anxious/weird about it bc demise is my blorbo)

i had similar worries with totk, that werent proven true thankfully, but the darn book is making it all worse again with all those weird lore things the game doesnt even so much as hint at AND potential retcons- im in for a really rough time huh, not just stress in real life (more in tags.. its alot) but now about my specific hyperfixation from two things even (AND artblock still..)

weird as it may sound, i dont want demise to get more lore, partly bc i dont believe theyd do anything with him that i would like (given their track record) but much more importantly- the fact that he has this little lore about him is precisely one of the reasons why i fell in love with him, i tend to like characters that are neglected by the narrative, and his story being both so flat and already done meant i can be very creative with what i come up with for him without necessarily contradicting anything in canon (which is ... or was a big point of how i wrote destiny's story and lore, working with canon in a way that reframes it all without straight up ignoring it ... but i suppose i urgently need to let go of that and accept i spend alot of time working things that will go to waste :( ) AND not having to worry that there will be more stuff with him that would massively change not only what im writing but also potentially how i feel about him since the game he was briefly in was the oldest chronologically and ended with his death- i didnt expect them to mess with anything that far back and thought theyd just go forward and leave the timeline behind and wouldnt mess with it again, given how botw seemed to be a sort of 'fresh start' that seemingly regarded the past as the past that needs to rest and that the timeline was finally no longer a discussion if everythings unified through botw and one thing going forward

but i suppose i was very wrong with that .__.

right now the only thing that motivates me still is the left over determination and spite to work on my zelda comic, since i have never gotten this far and really want to get something done for once, but i cant lie that im feeling like i should pause all work on it too to wait and see waht the book and the new game will do .. either to determine if i still have the will to keep working on it after those things are out (my love for tloz has been taking alot of hits lately ..) or if i have to change stuff (mostly bc of my lore problem trying to not ignore it ..)

i may be stupid

feeling like tumblr is a job BUT IN A GOOD WAY like i sign on after my actual job onto my work (tumblr haikyuu smau writer hobby) computer (my home computer on it's last dying breath) to answer emails (reblog all of my moot's wonderful works) and write up reports (my own chapters LMAO)

rotating the pub scene from 73 yards in my mind i think there is so much being said there about wales and welsh/english tension that is so interesting and is going so under discussed

catch me laughing in the club awkwardly because this season has a 19 year old blonde female companion from London, a space travelling left of law brunette queer boy who flirts heavily with the doctor, absolutely zero writers of colour and no mention of sensitivity readers…….and next season the new companion is a woman of colour. uh oh!

was talking to a friend about the fact that AI outperforms doctors in making diagnoses and tbh completely unsurprising given the fact that doctors are increasingly expected to diagnose patients in twenty minute checkup windows. because i'm sure there are a lot of things a doctor could do better than AI in a world where hospital staff and patients were both being valued. a doctor fully integrated into the community they are treating who has time for hour long visits where they can more freely take time to diagnose and discuss a patient's lifestyle concerns, goals, and the logistics of meeting said goals can do a lot of things that AI cannot. but for a plethora of reasons doctors are increasingly not doing that - they're doing twenty minute checkups with the intention of diagnosis. and if that's the only value doctors intend to provide and the only value others in turn are demanding of doctors, of course AI can do it faster and more accurately than they can. of course it can.

and to bring this back to fandom things. of course it upsets me that people are feeding fics to AI and see what the program pops out. of course the idea of someone doing this with my fics makes me feel cheap and used and commodified and disposable. like the wrapper for a candy bar, instead of a human being who put in a lot of effort to collect their thoughts on the things they've studied and felt and experienced, and express it through an artistic medium they love and admire. but as much as it upsets me it doesn't *outrage* me, frankly, because that feeling is old news. kudos culture, personal entitlement, every time someone has gotten upset with me for writing a narrative with a conclusion that was not meant to - and never meant to - provide easily digestible escapist romantic wish fulfillment. and i am not discounting that i myself have probably contributed to making other artists in fandom feel this way too. but if all we are offering as artists, and all we are demanding from artists in turn, is inoffensive tropey emotional fulfillment of our two favourite blorbos kissing (or hugging, or kicking bad guy butt, or going to therapy and learning how to be a well-adjusted person without any of the actual upsetting work involved in that, or w/e). if exacting character analysis, the craft of creating an interrogating and thematically consistent narrative, or the bravery to create a headcanon that there is no basis for other your ability to write it convincingly - if none of that matters, then of course AI can write better and faster than I can. of course it can.
