Use reference. I’m serious. I get it that somehow you or someone convinced you that using reference is “cheating.” It’s not. You are just hindering yourself.

"these researchers published a paper on something that literally any of us could have told you 🙄" ok well my supervisors wont let me write something in my thesis unless I can back it up with a citation so maybe it's a good thing that they're amplifying your voice to the scientific community in a way that prevents people from writing off your experiences as annecdotal evidence
they did the research in the first place because they believed you and wanted to tell people about it. they are not our enemies.

reblog by aphony-cree

people always go "Instead of spending all that time on a study they could have just listened to us when we said these thing happen"

they did listen, that's how studies work, they asked people about their experiences and put all the data together in a nice package that can be cited

hey questioning, near-to-cracking eggs that follow me, if you're in the US there's a pretty good chance you can get a gender-affirming care appointment at your local planned parenthood and get started on HRT by the end of the week.

tenthousandghosts
this is true of my own experience which was recent enough i can just describe exactly what i went through:

just about a year ago, i scheduled an appointment with my local planned parenthood through their website and had a telehealth appointment the next day. I spoke to the doctor for about 30, 45 minutes wherein we talked about her general strategy for working with trans patients and she asked me how I'd like to take my estradiol (i went with injections despite being extremely afraid of them which i can now also highly recommend). I didn't have to do any convincing, I didn't have to justify my own transness or anything like that, it was very straightforward.

I signed some documents that outlined the potential effects and risks of starting HRT. My doctor straight up told me that many of the risks were exaggerated.

At the end of the week, I had an appointment with a nurse at the actual planned parenthood building in my area so that she could show me how injections work. She gave me my choice of injection kit (intramuscular or subcutaneous -- i went with subcutaneous because the needles are small enough that they just do not hurt at all but it does not matter a whole lot), which contains 3 months of supplies. I stop by planned parenthood every few months to grab a new kit. Then, she had me practice going over the injection with some bottles of saline solution on some fake skin. Once i was confident enough and after she checked that my prescription was ready, i scheduled a followup appointment with my new doctor 3 months from that date. I left and filled the script at my pharmacy and started HRT on the first Friday of October.

You can seriously get started within a week and it's the best decision i ever mad…

real conversation i had when i stayed the night at a friends house that i think about constantly
Two furry women lounging in bed, a wolfgirl and a lynxgirl. The lynx is holding a wine glass and theyre both in their underwear. Wolfgirl says
"I feel like a LOT of Toriel porn is actually a subtle display of some sort of internalized or perhaps even EXTERNALIZED misogny because they refuse to look at her as a character in place of using her as a goat-themed MILF archetype"
"Mmhmm mmhm"
"Like, do you truly love Toriel and her fridge-shaped design and her puns and her apparent character flaws, or do you just want
a video game mommy that's popular with furries, y'know?"
"and that's completely true. A refusal to look at the character as a woman and instead a SYMBOL of a sort of idealized womanhood,
someone who cooks and cleans and  fucks you rather than a person with internality"
"EXACTTLYYY"

GDT's reddit AMA spitting fire www.reddit.com/r/movies/com...
reddit comment: 

Hello! Did you intend the ending of Pan’s labyrinth to be real or in Ofelia’s mind?

Guillermo Del Toro's reply: 

My interpretation, and it's exclusively mine, is that it's real.

Because there's two things. One is what people call “The Shining Question.” The Shining Question is, Who opens the door for Jack to get out of the fridge? And Ofelia is in an attic with a guard outside her door, and she draws the door with the magic chalk, and she shows up in the labyrinth. So, the only way she could have gone into the labyrinth is the magic chalk. And the flower is real at the end. The flower that blooms in the dead tree. And the reason I think it’s real is because—and this is why I'm in favor of the human factor in art—I think that art does transform the world. You know?

Think about it for a second. One of the goals, with all this movement, is to make you believe that art is vulgar. That art is nothing special, and anybody can do art. That is like me telling you that I'm faster at running than Usain Bolt but I “run” in my motorcycle. Well, that's not the same. That’s not the same at all.

Art is important, and they want you to believe it isn't. It's part of the idea of control. The goal is not to have artificial intelligence. The goal is to foster natural stupidity. The goal is to foster you not looking for answers, and to trust yourself entirely to an engine. Look at the way we are dipping our toes into these things. We are starting to ask the machine, Is this true? For now, there's a correlation between reality and what the answers of the machine are. For now. But soon, we won't even investigate further. We will be told it's true. And if the machine is in the hands of somebody who should not be trusted, then your reality has been completely and utterly fucked. Because your intelligence ends at the question. You don't seek the answer. It's given to you.Q: You recently mentioned that AI creates 'semi-compelling screensavers' and that you'd 'rather die' than use it. As a filmmaker who relies heavily on practical effects and creature design, what do you think is the biggest thing lost when a computer generates an image instead of a human hand?

GDT:

The three quarters of the process that gave you the chance to think of the idea that people don't think about without that process. Meaning, AI can get you to the middle really fast, but there's a dialectic with the process that gets you to that top 10%. I'll give you an example with the Pale Man.

We sculpted it as an old man, with a face. And then I said, Let's take out the face. This happened because I saw a photo of a manta ray and the poster for Don Coscarelli’s Phantasm. That combination, which happened at two different times during a week or a month, are not permutations that are chemically part of an equation. They are alchemy. And then I said, Take out the face, and then I said, Let's put the eyes on the hands. This triangulation happens because I spent a month or two months living with the idea of this creature. And it's not linear.

AI is like a super-fast engine that makes semi-sentient permutations of things that are already done. Creation is things that have never been done. Coming to exist.

And the second thing is the loss of the apprenticeship that one has as an artist. You're never a master; you're always an apprentice. This is a kinship I have with, for example, Chris Nolan. When he showed me The Odyssey, there’s a scene when Matt Damon is floating in the stormy ocean and I asked him—because we were talking about practical effects, and how great it is and that we both always use a maquette or a model—and I asked him, How did you do it? He said, “We put him in a storm in the ocean.”

And you're gonna find that 30% of a great image occurs accidentally. You know, either a drop of water hits the lens, or the camera shakes. I remember when in 1993, '94, Jim…

Nice to have a citation for the stuff we all sort of assume to be true but question if it's just our own biases making it look that way
Screenshot from the article in the quoted post, saying "Piff and his colleagues found that upper-class drivers were more likely to cut other cars off at junctions and ignore pedestrians at crossings. Wealthier people also appeared more willing to lie at work. In one experiment, volunteers were left alone with a jar of sweets ostensibly meant for children. When the researchers returned, upper-class people had snaffled nearly twice as many candies as lower-class people.

“The general pattern seems to be that with wealth and rising power, you become less engaged with the needs of others and less burdened by the needs of social relationships,” Piff said. “Taking candy from children might be the least of our worries but it’s emblematic of the tendency to prioritise one’s own needs over those of others.”
