I literally had a teacher once “correct” me for saying the area of a circle is πr² instead of πrr. I was told “you’re not wrong but that’s for future classes”. On another class, I had a teacher correct a short story by removing repeated words, whereas I used repetition for emphasis, but used a comma instead of ellipsis. Think “I saw it, saw the thing” instead of “I saw it… saw the thing”. Both was in early elementary, no higher than 3rd grade.

So, believe it or not, things happen to other people even if they didn’t happen to you.

The worst thing about calling this fake is that it’s not even unbelievable, it’s a perfectly possible and mundane thing that most likely happened to millions of children as they grew up, yet everything in the internet is fake, right? No one just happens to record people for no reason, no one’s smart enough to make funny jokes in the spur of the moment and get a reaction from strangers.

EDIT: Added context.

That’s exactly how it feels reading any global or US news recently.

I’m exhausted dawg

Reminds me of the time I saw people arguing on Reddit about the phrase “time is a social construct” where some people were completely incapable of understanding what that means and conflating the concept of time with the fundamental physics thingymcgee (idk how to call it and entity feels wrong).

People were trying so hard to explain that minutes, months, seasons, etc. are all arbitrary things made up only for them to retort with “but a year is a full rotation of the sun” or “seasons exist because that’s how the planet changes its climate”.

Did you ever get a response? Also, what is the thing that gave it away to you that this is AI generated? I tried looking at the background in more detail and could only see 3 (?) odd things that could’ve been it (one of which I’m not even certain about), maybe 4.

But yeah, there’s been this constant thing in the back of my mind bothering me about his content that I can’t quite put the finger on, maybe just an instinct, which makes me doubt whether or not I should continue watching.

Momther/mumther when I’m feeling particularly silly

And yet we continue having children smh /j /lh /ns

I have a personal hypothesis, born out of studies I read a long time ago and haven’t kept up with nor really bothered to research more (so take it with a grain of salt), that dreams are two things happening at once:

•Your brain organizing your memories of everything that happened that day, including every thought you had even if it doesn’t have a physical event attached to it.

•Your imagination adding as much of a cohesive story as it can to those often times unrelated memories.

I always picture it like still images that change rapidly one after the other, sort of like flipbooks, and then your “conscious” mind trying to keep up with it, finding no logic, and creating a storyline instead.

I’ve found myself lucid dreaming before, and despite being in control and knowing it’s a dream, I’m still asleep, so I end up making dumb choices or playing along with my dream.

The dreams I remember tend to be strangest/goofiest ones or the ones that had some emotional impact on me. However, when I analyze them while awake, I realize that there was a lot of extra “content” that I didn’t add or doesn’t fit into the dream. Like how somehow the place and the people I’m with change every “scene”.

Sometimes I wake up with a phrase resonating inside my head, with that feeling you get in your mouth when tou want to say something. And since I’m bilingual, I’ve had dreams with both languages happening at once. Hell, I’ve even had dreams where I’m speaking Japanese “fluently” (i.e. it feels fluent in the dream but I know it must be gibberish, since I don’t speak the language).

Sometimes they help me face subconscious anxieties, sometimes they give me solutions to problems I’m having IRL, but more often than not, it’s like I’m watching the randomest movie ever. And I do think they’re a “window or the subconscious” but not in the sense I think you’re asking. Since they’re memories and imagination, it is your subconscious that is choosing to focus on specific aspects or the storyline you create. So, analyzing them can help to see what’s going inside that blob of fat we call brain.

Tl;dr: they feel like when you’re fantasizing/daydreaming but a lot less cohesive, and can be helpful every now and then.

I don’t know how dreams happen to people with aphantasia, and I know my explanation would be wildly different for them, but that’s how I see dreams.

I don’t get the last panel

I couldn’t be arsed to do it in a higher quality

I like my friend’s approach, which is to be a sadistic mfer and finding new ways to torture his players every time.

He’s a semi-aquatic, egg-laying mammal of action. He’s a furry little flatfoot, who’ll never flinch from a fray. He’s got more than just mad skill, he’s got a beaver tail and a bill. And the women swoon whenever they hear him say “GRGRGRGRGRGRGR”

A lot of replies here still wander into sounding mad imo Instead, I would fake not getting the insult and just make them uncomfortable by saying something like “Wow that’s cool :D” and then just move on. Sort of like when you acknowledge a child doing something dumb but they’re so proud of it you don’t want to ruin it for them.

Well I have bad news for you: that’s (probably) the original. However, it does seem that there’s this other one [WARNING, NSFW] with a panel that looks extremely similar which might’ve been the inspiration for this, but that’s just speculation on my behalf.

mad confusing to see “carcel” in an english post as a spanish speaker since that means jail

Uh, I don’t think I wanna visit the site anymore

How can you tell it’s AI? /gen
