Dammit Ex Machina Got Made.

Dammit Ex Machina got made.

I was just thinking about what my "Act Naturally" [Ringo Version] would be (a role I would perform most naturally in.)

And unironically had the thought of telling a director: "I'd do best in a situation where a character feels like they're taking a Turing Test."

Very original of me I know. 🙄

I'm soooooooo special.

I LOVE when children who juuuust barely understand ten percent of something find somebody (a toy or a smaller child, usually) who understands zero percent and they’re like “come hither and I shall take you under my wing and teach you my instant wisdom.”

“don🦍t believe anything your brain tells you after 9 pm” wrong. the prime time for decision making is when you🦍re sleep deprived

^example of what life would be like if we used gorillas instead of apostrophes

I feel woefully tethered to the natural world right now.

Accidentally wound up on "hear me out cake" tiktok, and I swear, if another one of these bitches puts down an at-most-unconventionally-attractive human man, Lady Dimitrescu or Nick Wilde/Robin Hood I am going to lose my fucking mind.

Saw one where the first person they named was Disney's Aladdin and I tapped out so hard I entered a fugue state and didn't regain full consciousness for like a solid hour.

As a person with a personality wrapped around a husk of humor: the belief that making a good joke requires critical thought and unique thought runs strong.

The same part of yourself that can think you're funny can also think you're the best thing since baked beans, and maybe you are, or maybe you're a mushy apple.

You're neither.

You're a human.

And that's incredible.

What lovely sentient carbon we are.

Oh and teaching kids with memes seems like actually super fun.

Might get back into reading to make meme chapter summaries.

Oh.

Oh thats fandoms.

Imagine the Math Fandom (it already exists.)

I don't know what this is anymore.

Let's chalk this up to magnificence?

Toodles.

I think I met a new role model this morning, in the form of a professor.

When a student appeared tired, he said, oh are you tired? You didn’t have coffee maybe? That’s fair I only had three which is less than half than my normal consumption so forgive me if I’m not well woken up!

(Can’t insist enough on the fact that it was morning.)

Then he put a slide of his presentation and it was a species of animals and he went like ah yeah I’m supposed to talk about them to you but I don’t like them so I won’t! Next slide!

Other citations include:

So, you were all taught than the brain is three parts then 5, and I’m sorry to tell you your professor lied to you.

So, we don’t actually know how octopus brains work, or if they really have a brain, because when we try to study them they try to escape. And when we present them with a simple activity, they do something else instead. (For exemple, a typical activity would be pulling a lever to have a treat. An octopus broke the lever and played with it).

It’s actually harder to study octopus and crows than rats because they get bored.

Okay, you’re supposed to identify this picture, but you won’t be able to and that’s fair, so let me tell you what it is.

I put that info here because it’s cool but you don’t have to learn it. But you could, cause that would be a cool fun fact to tell your friend while drinking beers this evening.

Also important to tell that this man was very badly dressed, seemed to not have slept in like half a million years and not seen a hairbrush in even longer than that.

Im gonna have class with him next week as well and I can’t wait.
