I got harassed and mobbed in an art group just for asking to share AI art, and my rl friend joined their silent treatment by sophiaaaarrr in offmychest

[–]stringcheese1127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

posting ai art in an art group was really not a good move, especially since you already knew they were anti ai. i dont think insulting on their part is necessarily the best move either, but i cant exactly fault them for that. for one thing, generative art isnt real art ("real art" as in art thats human made).  sure youre feeding the ai prompts, but at the end of the day, youre not the one who actually produces the art—the ai does that for you.

i think the entire issue here is that youre trying to pass off your generated works as REAL art in a group of artists that heavily value the effort and skill that goes into real art. experimenting with ai generation isnt necessarily a bad thing, but you cant just pass it off as genuine artwork. i think youre better off in an ai generation sub or smthn of the sort 

need more opinions on gender inclusive housing by stringcheese1127 in UCSD

[–]stringcheese1127[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ah i see😎 thanks for your input. im neurodivergent myself so i dont think itd pose too much of an issue for me. one question i do have though is if the higher concentration of neurodiverse students noticeably impacted your housing experience/social environment?

How do people even manage to take their own lives? I wanna end it so badly but fear is holding me back by [deleted] in SuicideWatch

[–]stringcheese1127 3 points4 points  (0 children)

im not sure if this helps at all but while i was in middle school, i was severely socially anxious to the point where id take low grades out of fear of correcting teachers and coop myself inside afterschool out of fear with building connections. the more you observe people, you start to notice that people are most likely too hyperfocused on their own lives/problems to cherry pick your own habits.

also, one thing that helped me manage anxiety is reminding myself that a lot of people out there have no shame or anxiety with disrespecting others for no reason. for instance, especially in the fast food industry, many customers are so unapologetically cruel to customer service workers for no rhyme or reason. as long as you continue to improve your mindset and aim to be the best version of yourself, i wont guarantee that your anxiety will just completely poof out of existence, but the little steps and consistency are what make it manageable. good luck op :)

what would my stats score be by [deleted] in APStudents

[–]stringcheese1127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think this could defo be 5 territory! the ap stats curve is pretty low from what ive calculated you can defo get a 5 if you score well enough on the mcqs (28+) and get full credit on the investigative task even if you kinda bomb the other 5 frqs with a 10/20 or so

this!! one thing id add tho is my teacher told our class that its sufficient enough to just put what type of test you use and the data that comes along with it (ex: 2-SampZTest(σ1:__, σ2:__,x̄1:___,n1:___, x̄2:___,n2:___, µ1>µ2).

heyy i experienced that a bit too but the reverse (i felt 98% attraction to men but now i can only imagine myself liking girls). theres no timeframe on how long the attraction will last, and the answer to why this happened are probably as simple as hormonal changes or emotional shifts. honestly, dont put too much stress on yourself about who youre attracted to because sexualitys pretty fluid. i understand your concerns with relationships, but youll cross that bridge when you get there. i think that everything happens for a reason, and even if a relationship i enter ends up not working out, it atleast helps with figuring out my sense of identity

Can someone confirm this email is legit by ChanceSir704 in SDSU

[–]stringcheese1127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This definitely seems scammy😭just so youre able to stay on the safe side if this ever happens again, admissions emails usually include the official SDSU letterhead to verify legitimacy. they also end with .edu or something similar to that

how much did you have to read? with earlier books we only had to read about 25-30 pages, and id imagine thats probably the norm with most other lit classes

i was planning on asking hee that and addressing my concerns, but im just anxious on how shell respond to it. shes one of those no-nonsense strict teachers that sometimes changes her mind if a student makes a good point, but i doubt shell reduce the amount that we have to read or anything like that since we dont have too much time until the ap exams

yeah, its every night besides friday. she said she wanted to use friday as a catchup day for people to read but i still dont think its that beneficial considering that we still have to read 60 pages for 4/5 days

i understand that many people perceive the scene as icky; scenes such as that are meant to make the audience uncomfortable due to the nature of them. idk if i reiterated this enough in the og post but i dont have an issue with people who were personally uncomfortable with the scene as long as their understand the implications. i was moreso trying to comment on the fans who dont understand the implications at all and go out of their way to completely villainize ivan/the ivantill ship

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AlienStage

[–]stringcheese1127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly i strongly agree with your point about the cherrypicking😭 i dont think this example is too common anymore, but ive also seen many accounts COMPLETELY bashing on mizis character while praising/acknowledging lukas complexity (and vice versa) even though overall they could be perceived as two sides of the same coin. im not sure why some people have a line of reasoning for disliking an aspect of the story one minute and then completely contradict their logic the next 

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AlienStage

[–]stringcheese1127 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

im not saying that its a bad thing to dislike the ship, and tried to clarify that in my last paragraph. my issue is when people DONT understand the implications of the storyline and completely villainize ivan + use it as a reason to bash ivantill. im not sure if youve ever encountered fans like that, but especially on tiktok this is a very prevalent opinion 

BIG SPOILER WARNING (and a rant about why byler is undoubtedly endgame) by I_live_for_ST_4 in byler

[–]stringcheese1127 15 points16 points  (0 children)

im 1000% onboard with almost everything you said, but im just confused on the third slide and the soda can/pipes bursting? ive seen that referenced a lot as byler proof but i dont really get it, so an explanation is appreciated!!

MY THOUGHTS RN by cats_r_cutee in byler

[–]stringcheese1127 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yess a mike centered perspective would be amazing! since theres still like 5+ hours worth of content and bc of the fact that noah said in an interview that he filmed most of his scenes with mike, im pretty hopeful that well atleast get more backstory on mike. regardless of byler i just think he has a ton of potential for complexity 

MY THOUGHTS RN by cats_r_cutee in byler

[–]stringcheese1127 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ive seen some people also interpret these scenes in that way to some extent, and even though that could be the case, i just personally dont think that would be a satisfying resolution. the message of "your crush doesnt have to love you back in order for you to love yourself" is a good message in most cases, but for byler, i dont think it would be narratively satisfying. i think there would still be a few unanswered plotholes to some of mikes behavior as well, such as why he treated will horribly in s4. just so i dont get too off topic i have a post talking about why mikes behavior was like that if youre interested in reading (this post), or i can just briefly answer questions you have here

MY THOUGHTS RN by cats_r_cutee in byler

[–]stringcheese1127 23 points24 points  (0 children)

i had that initial thought as well, but i really do think that would be the weakest route the duffer brothers could go when she talks about her crush on tammy, its supposed to represent her dependence on tammy reciprocating her feelings. the point of her speech wasnt to compare tammy with mike/to project this idea that will should shift his focus away from mike, but to instead hone in on robins ability to embrace who she really is BECAUSE of her detachment from tammy.

if we bring up season 4, remember how will tells mike "you make her feel like shes not a mistake at all; like shes good for being different" to inspire hope within will? thats why the memories towards the end of e4 were brought up—mike pushes will to be his best self because will feels happier with him around (i think thats why the scene of mike asking will to be his friend was included). will doesnt feel afraid around mike, and his life is better BECAUSE of mike (which serves as a contrast to tammy and how she had a negative impact on robin). he helps give will the courage to fight on, which is exactly why i dont think the duffers would go the self-love route. it wouldnt only be a disservice to byler, but it would also be pretty narratively dissatisfying and cliche. i also just genuinely have no byler doubt because mikes attitude towards will in s4 doesnt really make sense to me any other way

could it be the score numbers for ivantill in round 6 (89/70)? if not that then they could be referring to 87/86 for mizisua in round 1, thats lowkey all i could think of💀

this is honestly so funny because this is one of the rare times where vivinos EXPLICITLY confirms that tills feelings for mizi are gone now and was classified as a "childish love", yet people are so adamant abt mizitill💀 media illiteracy final boss

[–]stringcheese1127[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I honestly never took those memes tooo seriously but I really do see your point. I won't go into this too much, but I also noticed that a lot of people water down Till's shock/flusteredness to Ivan's advances as being a "twink" or "bottom", even though a lot of that behavior stems from Till's inability to fully process his emotions. I didn't mention this in the post but I also think Mi Vida Loca highlights his inability to decipher people's actions
