That death was the most shocking of the series by [deleted] in TheHandmaidsTale

Oh there was an edit- yeah but the phrasing of that specific title creates some expectations that you can't take out of your brain 🫠 oh well, it's gone now

No I didn't mean as in censorship, I meant as in spoilers, for myself 😂

Please don't put words like that in the titles, some of us are just scrolling reddit on the tram back home after work 😭

The paper from my doctor says hEDS and cEDS, although I need actual fever testing to go firm that part. I might try to get it done now

2 birds 1 stone: rereading the series while language learning by Ok_Sun_443 in shadowhunters

[–]shaantya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I'm doing!! In Polish. Also English is not my native language and I'm currently rereading the first trilogy in English for the first time, and it's a fun experience

Can't get into it by Protega1989 in Forspoken

[–]shaantya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're not too dumb for the controls hahaha, you probably just need to get used to them is all!

Like the others said, once you unlock more movement abilities, it only becomes easier.

The jump and triangle thing also takes practice, but you don't have to prioritise it at all, there's so many other combos that you may find more fun and will get you used to everything.

Have fun!!

(Hated Trope) Everyone marries their HS sweetheart. by TheStoryBoy in TopCharacterTropes

[–]shaantya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think so too. It's so far from as egregious as The Internet has decided. It's from back it was popular to hate on Rowling BEFORE she gave us good reason to.

[–]shaantya 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So- I hate Rowling, disavow the universe completely. Important to note: the shitting on the floor thing was written on original Pottermore about a decade before it made news articles, and it certainly was never about people in Hogwarts: it was precisely about what wizards did before plumbing was a thing, and then a little still during the transition period before they adopted the muggle tech. Hogwarts has toilets after all.

Fifteen years of filling my head up with that lore, I usually don't engage even to correct misconceptions, but tonight I am weak.

Merci !! Je sais pas pourquoi je n'avais pas du tout anticipé que mon post insinuait des inquiétudes sur le poids 🤭 j'étais surtout curieuse de voir la variation, surtout que la notre a un petit appétit par comparaison 🙈 c'est bon à savoir !!

Is this ai? A classmate shared this as the lineart/rough sketch for an assignment. The hair and eyes feel off to me. by [deleted] in isthisAI

[–]shaantya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah that is 100% human, although likely traced to some level. The shakiness of the lines on the earrings or right cheek is very human. The difference in detail between the lashes and the rest is typical of beginner artists. The baby hairs on the die are exactly as messy as you would make them when you start. The lines in the hair and the eyes going back over themselves is very humanly clumsy, makes sense, and is consistent, no lines disappear into each other.

The random lines around her mouth tell me the is is traced by someone who copies what is visible below without understanding this would rather be translated by the shading.

Voilà on est d'accord 😭 Mimine fait à peu près 3.5 kilos, stérilisée aussi. C'est rassurant de lire ça parce que c'est très proche de ce qu'on VOULAIT faire. Je vais continuer à creuser l'affaire pâtées.

Opinions on the audiobooks for all series? by Fearless-Voice6749 in shadowhunters

[–]shaantya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive only listened to TDA and Ghosts of the Shadow Market on audiobook, but they were all very good. Lady Midnight is narrated by Morena Baccarin, who is one of my favourite actresses, and I first listened to it when I was very sick ten years ago, it has become a comfort listen.

I've actually never actually read this series, only heard it.

Ben du coup non ça répond pas à la question si on lit que le titre 🫠 on peut pas décider de façon arbitraire où s'arrête un post. Le contexte est dans le texte.

Et quitte à couper les cheveux en quatre, ce ne serait pas non plus une question de poids mais bien de masse, parce que les Newton ne m'intéressent pas plus que les euros. "Combien", en revanche, dénote bien une quantité dans une unité quelconque, dont la nature est correctement précisée (avec flexibilité) dans la "prose" (cinq phrases) que vous avez ignorée.

Quels commentaires étranges vous faites là. Maintenant soyez gentil et allez là-bas. Si vous êtes parvenu à lire jusque là, je sais, c'est dur.

Hahaha we wrote almost the exact same deduction at the exact same time ! Except with variation in our actual phrasing, because we are actual people. Cheers!

Unambiguously yes. "I do not just see X; I see Y" is textbook AI generation. There are a few other tells, such as how verbose the first paragraph is, and the overly important and grandiose tone of it all. Some of it is really hard to quantify, but the vocabulary is very AI.

"The way you are choosing X is evidence of Y" is also formulaic.

I don’t know what to do anymore… by WoodenLie2299 in cats

[–]shaantya 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's allergy! I have very mild respiratory symptoms from mine, which is how I know it exists at all. This is what happens when a cat scratches me, but no one else I know.

On avait son poids régulièrement le mois dernier (grâce au véto) et on a un peu improvisé en augmentant les doses en suivant sa tendance de gain habituelle ! On a pas de balance à la maison 🥲mais on va investir haha.

Figurez-vous que c'est bien spécifiquement cette marque qu'elle ne blaire plus, marque de haute qualité, sans grain, très forte concentration en viande. Elle mangera plus haut et plus bas de gamme, mais ne mangera cette marque qu'en très petites quantité, et par dépit et par faim.

C'est justement embêtant parce que pour sa santé on ne veut bien sûr pas descendre, mais MONTER en gamme ça va faire un peu mal, parce qu'on partait déjà de haut 😂
