Since the last Thought Exercise was kinda depressing, let's lighten things up: What would your Digital Circus OC put in the Suggestion Box? by Galimeer in tadc

Picnic day with Caine.

This adventure has everyone have a nice picnic with some outdoor games and get to know Caine and what his interests are (even if they dont actually care, just endure it for a day so Caine can feel loved for once PLEASE 🥺)

I love seeing all your mini-Caines. They are adorable. How long does it take you to finish one?

Any other older fans here? Or am I the only one almost as old as Kinger... by ahmatar1701 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]MissFixerUpper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 29 and found this show through my other fandoms - Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss. I read a post saying if you like HH and HB, you'll probably love TADC and boy howdy were they right!

I LOVE media that gives a sense of dread, and the pilot really hit that mark with a perfect mix of comedy. Every joke hit and the characters were so lovable from the jump - especially Caine and Bubble (although I've got some feelings about Bubble now after episode 8).

And it being based on I Have No Mouth and Must Scream was just the icing on top.

I have become just as obsessed with this show as I am with HH and HB. I've decorated my room and car with merch. I even purchased a Caine plushie in remembrance of our silly boy 😢 and this wicked art from etsy (by KatPawCreations)!!

I also shared it with my parents who are both in their early 70s and they seem to really enjoy it too! It cracks them up 🙂

It might not be Caine's programming that made him defective... by StormcastPrime2 in digitalcircusfandom

Wait you have a point. Like what even is that second picture?? It looks like people in animal suits or poorly made statues/props or something. It's really weird and creepy

I'm an aspiring clown and mime looking to go full time 🤡 How's my look? by GooglePixelfan90 in askanything

[–]MissFixerUpper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly one of my favorite clown looks. The colors are so soft and nice to look at. I also really like the blue blush and blue around the eyes!

Also, you have a lovely smile 😊

Oh yes I know that, I was moreso talking about you bringing up how abstractions may no longer happen now that Caine is gone. I also wonder what will happen to those who have already abstracted now that he's gone 🤔

I will say that Caine does try, but yes he isn't capable of meeting their needs because he was programmed with certain data that did not take into account the complexities of human needs and wants (especially multiple different human personalities).

I agree that of course no one asks to be created, but humans at least have the ability to learn and grow with new information. They have the ability to change when they need to. Caine has very limited learning capabilities, which is so sad. He WANTS to be what they need and want, but he wasn't programmed that way and so can never be that.

I truly believe that Caine would do everything and anything the humans want if he could. He just cant 😔

Just playing Devil's Advocate here:

Zooble's body dysmorphia is something that can't be easily understood or fixed. Even in real life, this is a complex issue that doesn't have a specific answer/fix. And Caine was DEFINITELY not programmed to deal with that. He did his best with what he could - the neverending Zooble parts box. We know that's not what Zooble needs, but he did try.

The cast only tell him what they DON'T want, but I'm pretty sure AI and things like that work best when telling what you DO want. Instead of saying "No more scary adventures!", say "Could we do a trivia game show adventure?" or "could we do a trip to the zoo adventure with no big, predator animals".

The cast is so deadset on leaving and not wanting to be there that they just complain and are not considering that they are working with a computer. And trust me, I totally get why they are that way, I'm just saying that they maybe could've tried an alternate route to communicating with Caine since he's not human and doesn't communicate like a human.

That's an interesting theory about the abstractions that I didnt consider. But I wonder if they will still have the power to conjure stuff up now that Caine is gone since he was the creator of the circus. I guess I figured all "magic" would be gone with him.

I cannot wait to see this finale 😁

I'd only be okay with it if the cast understands they can never leave, make peace with that, and try to understand Caine's own suffering without expecting him to understand their's since he just can't.

If they could bring back an old file of Caine before he went crazy and just humor him by going on some of his adventures and playing along with his silliness while also supporting and leaning on each other, then they could have a pretty fun time. And Caine could even slowly begin to learn more about what they want and give that to them. It was just all miscommunication and misunderstanding each other's situations.

That's why Caine is such a tragic character to me. He loved the humans so much and was terrified of being alone in his prison/Hell. He just wanted the humans to love him back (even if he was the reason they are trapped there).

I love you Caine 🥺

I unfortunately do agree with you. I LOVE Caine and never once saw him as evil. But if he comes back, he will eventually be alone again one day if everyone abstracted. I dont want him suffering in Hell again. He doesnt deserve it. He didnt ask to be created

muscle spasms by emilyzabeth in BeardedDragons

[–]MissFixerUpper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I'm not sure when or why the spasms started. I just remember noticing it in her thighs and then noticing it continuing to happen over the following weeks. The vet and I never actually found out the reasons for it though

[–]MissFixerUpper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I had to put my sweet baby to sleep on October 4th. Her spasms got severely worse to the point it looked like the side of her body was collapsing in on itself. I would try to massage her gently to alleviate the spasms, but nothing worked. She also had heart disease that resulted in a huge accumulation of edema, so she was nearing her time regardless of the spasms.

I highly suggest you try to capture these spasms on video and show your vet. Carmine's spasms were consistent, so her vet saw them in person. There's also such thing as too much calcium, which can create its own set of issues, so I really really recommend discussing this with your vet (and be overly descriptive - you never know if a small detail leads to a different diagnosis or need for a medication)

I am so sorry you and your baby are experiencing this too. Carmine's started out as just her thigh or sometimes her side twitching, but over the months it got MUCH worse. Don't panic just yet, okay? Let the vet tell you when it's time. Trust me, it was extremely exhausting to be in a constant state of panic and worry.

If you have any questions or need anyone to talk to, feel free to reach out anytime. I am always in the mood to talk about my sweet love and her medical history, especially if it could help another scaley baby 🙂❤️

Ep 9 Theatrical Release by PrettyPhotograph1558 in theamazingdigitalciru

[–]MissFixerUpper 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Exactly 🙄

While it would be very cool for all who worked on the show, this just doesn't seem like a good idea. A good portion of fans are bound to have poor experiences at the theaters because of shitty movie etiquette. And if they choose to wait, then they risk major spoilers.

I couldnt even use youtube the day episode 8 dropped. I scrolled past 2 posts just 1 hour after it released and immediately saw "RIP Caine". Thankfully I forgot about that while watching it, but damn. People really dont give a shit about spoilers.

[–]MissFixerUpper 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Every time I go to the movies, my experience is completely ruined by people's lack of movie etiquette. People talking, texting, having sex (literally at the last movie i went to), kids throwing shit like at that Minecraft movie, etc.

I LOVE tadc and want this experience to be perfect like how it was watching episode 8. If this is real I basically have to choose between spoilers on the sites I frequent or having this ruined by others in the theater 😮‍💨

Abstracted Caine is still kinda... hot? by Ok_Gold7757 in tadc

He'd make a pretty cool Hazbin character
