am I crazy or does her hospital bracelet say she was admitted in October 2022

because then that just messes with the already messed up timeline even more

This was the first interview of them I ever watched so it’s very special to me. I had just seen a couple of episodes right after it came out, and I was mesmerized by the show and these two in particular. I was still turned off by internet fandom culture but thought some YouTube clips wouldn’t hurt.

All the giggling and softness and care for each other OH GOD I HAVE RELAPSED

And now as I’m typing this all out I wonder if this is how boomers feel when writing about their time in the Great War.

whats a fandom that you will literally never escape

like every few months you are like "ah finally i think i can move on from that fandom. i think the obsessions run its course" then a few months later youre obsessed with it again

[kopivie]

did a bit of scrolling through kazewhara and i feel so warm inside. both kazewhara and awlumii were like pockets of home to me, really. everyone was so kind and interactive.

it's just that.. at the time, i was so severely depressed and insecure that none of it really reached me. i was so unbelievably broken on a fundamental level. i feel like i owe everyone an apology.

i dunno if i could ever create a family like that on tumblr again. i want to, but with my other interests. it doesn't even need to be as big, i just... miss the community, i guess.

reminiscing is so bittersweet. i miss the time, but i don't miss who i was back then. i wouldn't ever go back to being that person. i was unstable and overly reliant on the validation of others. but... i can't deny how happy those blogs, anons, works and such made me.

Putting this one out in the open instead of tags bc its important:

If you are canadian, the advice for keeping the tick in case you develop symptoms could be life or death for you. Lyme disease is NOT easily treatable in Canada and its nearly impossible to get diagnosed to begin with.

Ticks weren't common or prevalent this far north until recently, due to climate change causing ticks to migrate north once it got warm enough up here. I'm in Montreal and we didn't even have ticks (or at least enough to be a problem) until the last 5-7 years. It's a very recent occurrence for us.

As a result, Lyme disease is not covered extensively by our Healthcare education system, and diagnosis and treatment are difficult. Our doctors might not accept an American diagnosis, and our test is not broad enough to be accurate. You could have Lyme disease and test negative for it. If that happens, our doctors will just cross it off the list and try to find another diagnosis.

If you are diagnosed by some miracle, you have to hope you have acute Lyme and not chronic Lyme, bc you won't be able to get treatment for longer than about 3 weeks. This is a strict rule regarding Lyme medication, and doctors have lost their licenses for prescribing the treatment for longer than is legally permitted.

Please, if you're canadian, take tick protection advice deathly serious. It could genuinely mean life or death for you. Lyme disease is a terrible disease, and in Canada it's very difficult to get diagnosed and even harder to get effective treatment.

I'm trying to write a post about tick safety and avoiding tick bites, but a lot of the info on websites is like "Avoid going in the woods, in plants, and where there are wild animals" and "Activities like hiking and gardening can put you at risk" and I'm like thanks! This is worthless!

As ticks and tick borne illnesses are expanding their range, I think it's important for people to be educated about these things, and I think it's especially important to give people actual advice on how to protect themselves instead of telling them to just...avoid the natural world

Rough draft version of Tick Advice:

Ticks don't jump down on you from trees, they get on you when you brush against grass, brush, bushes etc.

Ticks get brought to an area when they get done feeding from an animal and fall off them. In the USA, the main tick-bringing animal is deer, but I've seen plenty ticks on feral cats and songbirds.

Ticks get killed when they dry out so drier areas with more sunlight are less favorable to ticks.

The above is useful for figuring out whether an area is likely to have lots of ticks, and how vigilant you have to be in that area.

Wear light-colored, long pants outside. Tuck your pants into your socks, and tuck your shirt into the waist of your pants. Invest in light, breathable fabrics idc

IMMEDIATELY change out of your outside clothes when you come back from a tick-prone area, wash them, and dry them on high heat to kill any ticks that might be stuck on.

Shower and check yourself for ticks after coming inside. Hair, armpits, and nether regions in particular. You can use a handheld mirror or rely on touch; an attached tick will feel like a bump kinda like a scab

While you're outside, you can just periodically check for ticks by running your hands down your legs and checking visually to see if anything is crawling on your clothes. Light colors make them easy to spot, and they don't move fast.

Combing through each others' hair to check for creepy crawly critters is a time-honored primate ritual and is not weird. When hiking, bring a friend who will have your back when you feel something on your neck and need to know if it's sweat or a tick

If you're careful, you can usually catch ticks before they bite you, but if one does bite you, it's not the end of the world. Since tickborne diseases are different regionally i suspect this advice will differ based on where you are, but the important thing is remove the tick with tweezers (DON'T use butter, a lit match, or anything that kills the tick while it's still attached, please) and contact a doctor to see what to watch for. Most illnesses you can catch from ticks are easily treatable if you recognize them when symptoms first appear

[maddy-ferguson]

stranger things? wow. i haven't watched stranger things in six or seven years. but that takes me back. stranger things, wow

[dtkqer]

"Balaji’s death comes three months after he publicly accused OpenAI of violating U.S. copyright law while developing ChatGPT, a generative artificial intelligence program that has become a moneymaking sensation used by hundreds of millions of people across the world.

Its public release in late 2022 spurred a torrent of lawsuits against OpenAI from authors, computer programmers and journalists, who say the company illegally stole their copyrighted material to train its program and elevate its value past $150 billion.

The Mercury News and seven sister news outlets are among several newspapers, including the New York Times, to sue OpenAI in the past year.

In an interview with the New York Times published Oct. 23, Balaji argued OpenAI was harming businesses and entrepreneurs whose data were used to train ChatGPT.

“If you believe what I believe, you have to just leave the company,” he told the outlet, adding that “this is not a sustainable model for the internet ecosystem as a whole.”

Balaji grew up in Cupertino before attending UC Berkeley to study computer science. It was then he became a believer in the potential benefits that artificial intelligence could offer society, including its ability to cure diseases and stop aging, the Times reported. “I thought we could invent some kind of scientist that could help solve them,” he told the newspaper.

But his outlook began to sour in 2022, two years after joining OpenAI as a researcher. He grew particularly concerned about his assignment of gathering data from the internet for the company’s GPT-4 program, which analyzed text from nearly the entire internet to train its artificial intelligence program, the news outlet reported.

The practice, he told the Times, ran afoul of the country’s “fair use” laws governing how people can use previously published work. In late October, he posted an analysis on his personal website arguing that point.

No known factors “seem to weigh in favor of ChatGPT being a fair use of its training data,” Balaji wrote. “That being said, none of the arguments here are fundamentally specific to ChatGPT either, and similar arguments could be made for many generative AI products in a wide variety of domains.”

Reached by this news agency, Balaji’s mother requested privacy while grieving the death of her son.

In a Nov. 18 letter filed in federal court, attorneys for The New York Times named Balaji as someone who had “unique and relevant documents” that would support their case against OpenAI. He was among at least 12 people — many of them past or present OpenAI employees — the newspaper had named in court filings as having material helpful to their case, ahead of depositions."
