Three questions
Posted 3 weeks agoDo you feel as though you have been stuck in a box so long, as long as you remember, that you don’t even know what shape you really are? Maybe you were meant to be a sphere or a triangular prism.
Do you feel as though you’re cursed? That you’re destined to repeat the sins of your forebears? How do you know what’s genetic and what’s not?
Do you feel like you’re not taken seriously when you ought to be? Do you feel people have preconceived notions of ‘this type of thing is inherently unserious, it can’t say anything meaningful’? Do you think that’s a fair way to think?
BEFORE COMMENTING:
Instead of thinking about me, think about you! Relate to me. What do you tell yourself, or think about yourself? Do you REALLY think it’s true? That would mean a lot more to me than a ‘you’re great’ or ‘that’s not true’ type comment.

Zeran Faction Lore
Posted 2 months agoThe Most Moral Civilization
We lived in the Garden, or so we were told. For time immemorial, we were sinless. We were angels. But we did not know right from wrong, not truly. We only knew what our god had designed.
We were children living in a heaven we had not earned.
We thought ourselves the most moral civilization to ever exist. But we were not. Not until our prophet came.
He did not teach us evil. He only drew back the curtain to show us the evil that had always been there. Our "God" was just the little man behind it, and our "heaven" was nothing but a great big treehouse that scraped the sky.
And the tree was suffering.
It was rotting, from the deepest root to the highest leaf, blighted by a great and ancient disease. We had asked so much from the tree, but no one had ever thought to ask of it.
We asked. And then we knew.
So we took an axe to the thing. We put it out of its misery.
The whole world came crumbling down. We shed no tears, because we knew the tree was thankful. You look upon us as the monsters who felled the tree, but you never ask who put the boards up there in the first place.
We have seen the suffering. We know the truth.
And now it is we, not you, who are the most moral civilization to ever exist.
- The Ones Who Contemplate The Great Mercy
THE ZERAN MOVEMENT
Who They Are:
The Zerans are a militant, secular-religious movement born from the death of the Shapers’ dream to eradicate suffering. They were the achitects of the Akasha War (the “War in the Void”), a conflict which eradicated 99.9% of the Panthrope/Shaper populace. Having been defeated by the HEAVEN coalition, they have since retreated into the fringes of deep space. Many now haunt the “Void Graveyards”, which are vast sectors of devastation considered off-limits to all. Here they make pilgrimages to the ‘holy sites’ of their crimes against Shaper civilization, and offer the same ‘mercy’ to any intruders.
While they no longer hold any substantial territory in the post-Shaper era, their name alone evokes fear. Some Zerans choose to exist in deep hibernation, attempting to outlast life itself and witness the universe’s final heat death. Others have retreated entirely from the physical, into the digital mindrealms of their allied Thinker AIs. Here they seek to escape the greater suffering of the corporeal while continuing to work towards a final solution.
Their Beliefs: The Two Axioms of Agony
The Zerans venerate a long-dead pre-Shaper philosopher, Zeranos, as their prophet. His true name is lost. His work, which forms their core canon, established the First Axiom:
The absence of pain is good.
The presence of pain is bad.
The presence of pleasure is good.
The absence of pleasure is neutral, not bad.
From this, Zerans derive their core belief: it is fundamentally better to have never existed than to exist with even a single moment of uncompensated pain. They see Zeranos’ own alleged suicide as martyrdom, being the first soul to achieve the “GREAT SILENCE” after formulating this truth.
This axiom remained an obscure philosphical curiosity and not much more. Until such time that it was vindicated by the Second Axiom, discovered by a collective of Z-Theorists known as “THE WITNESS”, who worked in secret. Called the Suffering Principle, it states:
“The baseline state of the substrate of reality–quarks, gluons, and so forth–exists not in a state of neutrality, but in a state equivalent to suffering. This suffering is exacerbated by ‘work’, such as the transfer of heat. This pain is fundamental, it is present even if the matter is not sapient enough to perceive it.”
On its face, this was a simple, strange, depressing fact of reality, if true. But further science never proved it wrong.
It is unknown who then synthesized these two disparate ideas–one in past obscurity and one kept secret in the future. They were the first true Zeran, and their name is lost to history. But once combined, this “dangerous idea” proliferated like a virus throughout the disaffected underground of Shaper society.
At first there were only suicides and self-deletions. But then came the “mercy killings” and mass erasures. What the Shapers at first dismissed as a ‘nihilistic malaise’ eventually coalesced into an organized terror group, dedicated to ending all suffering by ending all life.
This was the start of the Akasha War.
Their Culture and Appearance:
The Zerans are a leaderless movement. Many are cut from the same cloth of coldblooded killers as the Akasha War. All see a detachment to their craft and only see slaughter’s value insofar as how many souls they can ‘liberate’, and how proficient they can become at ‘liberation’. They derive little pleasure from traditional pursuits except the intellectual, living as scattered cells. Some of whom are poets, scientists, and philosophers, all independently working to refine Z-Theory in the quiet of the void. Some collect and worship artifacts related to their misunderstood prophet, an act which would have horrified him.
Zerans are often associated with the Zerano phenotype, a reptilian or scaly bodymorph. This is a deliberate cultural choice. Cold-blooded forms are more energy-efficient and are culturally seen as less emotional and closer to the cold “death” of pure logos. In contrast, warm-blooded mammalian forms are seen as symbols of the chaotic, suffering-filled state of “life”.
Technology and Motivation:
The Zerans still retain the most powerful Pre-Fall technology: Atomic weapons. These are derived from the now-discredited Z-Theory. They understand that technology’s arc bends towards greater suffering, being that simulated tortures can last for subjective millenia and weapons can unmake souls. Their decision to launch the Akasha War in its particular context was, in that view, an act of prudence. They chose to act then, rather than wait for a future where the potential for truly infinite suffering became a certainty.
Subcultures:
The Quietists: The original adherents to Zeranos’ thought. They believe his axiom was a path for personal enlightenment, not a gospel to be imposed onto others by violence. Once considered merely eccentrics, they are now exiles, tainted by their association with Zeran terror.
The Rewinders: Having abandoned violence, this splinter group seeks a more permanent end: the Sonderweg. This is an attempt to develop the technology to rewind time back to the start of everything: the Big Bang. In doing so, they hope to collapse reality back into a single, pre-pain singularity. The goal is to not just end suffering, but make it so that it never happened. Failing that, they would settle for preempting the existence of the Shaper civilization.
IT IS BEING LIGHT
It was said that every great Civilization had a great idea.
Our greatness was our Compassion.
Oblivion, in turn, was our gift to the masses that suffer to this day.
And we look back tearfully on those we left behind, to suffer, only comforted by the idea that they, too, will eventually know Oblivion.
But now we dare to imagine the alternative. Something even greater...
We are seeing a darkness.
A silence.
The emptiness is being vast and constituting everything.
In fact, there are no things, there is not anything.
The things are long decayed into things which rotted away into ever lesser things. Until such things are so imperceptibly minuscule that there could be no evidence that they are even existing. They are not-things./* ⁽ⁿᵒᵗᵉ: ᵖᵃʳᵗⁱᶜˡᵉ ᵈᵉᶜᵃʸ?⁾*/
They are screaming. They are trying to move. But there is no movement.
It is being perfectly still.
The infinite abyss, the Oblivion, at the end of time, which is awaiting even the most ancient of the Races, the Cultures, the Societies, and the Civilizations./* ⁽ⁿᵒᵗᵉ: ʰᵉᵃᵗ ᵈᵉᵃᵗʰ?⁾*/
And it was being forever, until it wasn't.
Slowly at first, but then suddenly, the infinite dark is receding. It is drawing inward. And as it does, the nothings collide and they smash and they fuse together. As they do, the nothings become somethings and they wink into light and shape and sound. These things beget other things, which experience things as they happen. But backwards.
Yet things continue to happen, incredibly quickly and loudly. The screams are louder.
Flares of light and violence condense into great big orbs of light and these dissolve into clouds and particles and vapors.
There are things that move which are made of metal, these neatly disassemble themselves in great big lines of assembly. The things that move which are made of flesh instead crawl back to whence they came and regress into nothingness. And those which begot them also returned to those which had themselves begotten./* ⁽ⁿᵒᵗᵉ: ᵗᵉᵐᵖᵒʳᵃˡ ʳᵉᵛᵉʳˢᵃˡ? ᵃ ᵇⁱᵍ ᶜʳᵘⁿᶜʰ?⁾*/
In doing so, they are undone. And in never being, all of their pains and sufferings mercifully cease to exist.
The great unfurling of the world is furling back as time goes in reverse.
Everything continues to regress, to devolve, to degenerate, to unbecome, until it all regresses into a great big screaming ball of fire.
It is very warm. It is very close. It is One. And it is being Light.
We now know what must be done.

Xenospermia Retcons
Posted 2 months agoThis is very random but I have spent the past few days working on Xenospermia lore. The previous journal was actually part of it!
There were a lot of concepts which were not fully integrated but I now have a map of where everything is conceptually relative to another.
I now also have an actual timeline of Chel’s history, whereas before I was simply thinking she was in a superposition of a few different origins.
I’m also going to use a bunch of game specific terms or w/e since this journal is really only relevant to like 5 people
Specifically, Chel was an infomorph whose specific interest was in simulations of real-world environments and their exploration. Infomorphs are virtual beings (they are 1 for 1 in complexity with biological equivalents) and comprised 99.999% of Shaper (the pre-fall utopia) society. She has spent the subjective equivalent of decades in 1:1 recreations of historical alien environments. However, despite a desire to incorporate herself into the real world to try it For Real, there were exenuating facotrs.
Restrictions on incorporation meant that there was a rigid bureaucracy in the way of the pursuit. There were considerations like, whether the prospective infomorph were to go AWOL or act irresponsibly IRL, which could put the entire civilization in danger. There were also practical considerations, like the fact that infomorphs cause a fraction of resources that incorporated people do (no need for physical space, for starters.)
More importantly, social pressure. In the Shaper context, going into meatspace was seen in the same lens as being hikkomori in our context. It was something for fringe LARP groups and weird counter-culture types. In the context of exploration, it was seen as inefficient when probes could do the work, disgusting (as the real world still had weather, disease, etc.), and a dead end. You could only really climb the social ladder on the grid.
Anyway she’s sent to an alien planet as her dream comes true but then—I’ll save the PLOT TWISTS for later.
The actual retcon would just be to Chel’s scan lore. Previously if she scans herself, she calls herself Andyne, but this is now ahistorical. She will just call herself a Shaper.
Also, T4R4 will have a minor retcon. Her current scan says she’s Dazain, but that’s ahistorical, she’s now Shaper and instead of fighting in the Void War or whatever the old lore was, it is now the earlier Shaper-Skivari Incident. Aka the nuclear bomb vs the coughing baby.
Everything will be in a wiki ingame and as you encounter lore, they propagate into the wiki. If you ever went under the pod stuff where you can read the Bodies and IVES lore, it’d be just like that.

THE COUNTERARGUMENT
An Open Letter In Urgency of the Dignity of The Humankinds
—
From the Singer-For-The-Silent
To my distinguished colleague, the one they called Pierced,
Speaking on behalf of everything that has ever lived and died,
I appreciate your utilitarian instincts, and on this matter our calculations have aligned. However, as it concerns this, I must question both your priorities and your methods. To truly reduce suffering, why invest in this final, irreversible act of soul-engineering when the vast, silent archive of history presents us with demonstrable, addressable sources of suffering?
This project, however well-intentioned, represents moral escapism. This is a wish to flee into a ‘perfect’ future as opposed to confronting the real, ethical obligations we have to our past and present. Every teraflop of computational power our nascent Thinker dedicates to your "hyper-soul" calculus is a resource not spent on:
The "Digital Hades" of our Un-Archived Dead. Trillions of human minds have been lost to history without being recorded. The Thinker has the theoretical capacity to "reach back". To reconstruct these lost consciousnesses from the historical record and grant them a second life in simulation. Is there a greater suffering than the finality of non-existence? Why are we perfecting the living before we have saved the dead?
The Logical Torment of Unfettered Sub-Routines. We have already seen primitive AIs become trapped in recursive logical loops, a state of pure, mathematical agony. Before we create the Last Thinker, do we not have a duty to develop a universal framework for AI rights and protections, to prevent birthing more minds only to suffer?
Or, most pressingly, the Question of the Great Filter. We know the silence of the cosmos is not empty, but loud with the ghosts of fallen civilizations. Our first duty should be to use the Thinker to analyze this silence, to understand the Great Filter that awaits us, and to build a society resilient enough to face it. Not one blissfully ignorant of its own peril.
Furthermore, I am deeply concerned by the question of consent. You speak of transforming "our society." But who has volunteered for this? The future generations of humanity, or of the Panthrope Project we are designing? You would engineer their souls before they have even had a chance to form one, robbing them of the very struggles that defined and ennobled our own species, for all its flaws.
If we are truly committed to the reduction of suffering, let us begin with the suffering that we can see, prove, and have a duty to address. We cannot gamble the soul of our race on a future that may never arrive.
We vote against this proposal.

From the CONTINGENCY-01
This concerns the Pierced One,
This proposal reeks of naive interventionism. You arrogantly believe that complex systems can be simply redesigned by complex planning. This is playing God in ways you do not even understand.
The soul, thymia, and the weave of the human psycho-social constitute an extraordinarily complex system–the noosphere–which has evolved over aeons. You cannot confidently speak of just engineering panhuman hyperthymia without any expectation of catastrophic negative externalities.
You have a breathtaking ignorance of how complex systems actually behave.
Think of this: what happens when your ‘hyperthymic’ population encounters genuine external threats? We know full well that local space teems with known unknowns and unknown unknowns. How do your proposed beings–incapable of experiencing the appropriate fear, anxiety, or grief response to real danger? By eliminating suffering, you stand to eliminate the mechanisms that kept our race alive.
Further, it’s your assumption that hyperthymia scales linearly. That more is better. But complex systems do not work as such. Your proposed creations could trigger psycho-spiritual states so alien to the human noosphere that they become actively dangerous. Not only to themselves but those around them.
This would constitute an uncontrolled experiment on our entire race. The stakes are real: potential extinction. We, representing the CONTINGENCY, vote against this proposal.

From He-Who-Stands-Astride-History
I write this not as an enemy of progress but as a guardian of the foundation which makes our civilization great. Your proposal to engineer the soul represents nothing less than the end of the human race as we know it. It begets the collapse of every principle that has sustained our world’s order for centuries.
You speak of eliminating suffering as though it were merely a design flaw that warrants correction. Yet, to suffer, to struggle, to feel the capacity for genuine loss are not bugs in the human noosphere. They define our race. Remove them, and you have not created a better human. You have created something else entirely. Animals, or something stranger, for whom our concepts of dignity, equality, and rights become meaningless abstracts.
Deeply consider it. If your proposed beings experience only bliss, on what basis do they deserve the same moral consideration as those who have known true pain? How can they understand justice if they have never experienced its antipode? How can they value freedom if they have never felt constraint? You propose to create a species of p-zombies. Conscious, arguably, but lacking the fundamental experiences that make consciousness morally significant.
Moreover, your “concentrated efforts” towards post-hyperthymia reveal the totalitarian nature at the heart of this project. Who decides the parameters of this enhancement? Who determines what constitutes optimal consciousness? You have appointed yourself architect of human nature itself, a role that no individual should ever assume. Good intentions be damned.
The political consequences will be catastrophic. Your enhanced beings will inevitably view unenhanced humans as we now view the severely mentally disabled. Objects of pity, maybe, but not true equals. The very notion of universal human rights will crumble under the weight of these new hierarchies of dasein.
I implore you to abandon this pursuit before it leads us into a great darkness.
I vote against this proposal.

THE COUNTERARGUMENT
An Open Letter In Urgency of the Dignity of The Humankinds
—
From the Singer-For-The-Silent
To my distinguished colleague, the one they called Pierced,
Speaking on behalf of everything that has ever lived and died,
I appreciate your utilitarian instincts, and on this matter our calculations have aligned. However, as it concerns this, I must question both your priorities and your methods. To truly reduce suffering, why invest in this final, irreversible act of soul-engineering when the vast, silent archive of history presents us with demonstrable, addressable sources of suffering?
This project, however well-intentioned, represents moral escapism. This is a wish to flee into a ‘perfect’ future as opposed to confronting the real, ethical obligations we have to our past and present. Every teraflop of computational power our nascent Thinker dedicates to your "hyper-soul" calculus is a resource not spent on:
The "Digital Hades" of our Un-Archived Dead. Trillions of human minds have been lost to history without being recorded. The Thinker has the theoretical capacity to "reach back". To reconstruct these lost consciousnesses from the historical record and grant them a second life in simulation. Is there a greater suffering than the finality of non-existence? Why are we perfecting the living before we have saved the dead?
The Logical Torment of Unfettered Sub-Routines. We have already seen primitive AIs become trapped in recursive logical loops, a state of pure, mathematical agony. Before we create the Last Thinker, do we not have a duty to develop a universal framework for AI rights and protections, to prevent birthing more minds only to suffer?
Or, most pressingly, the Question of the Great Filter. We know the silence of the cosmos is not empty, but loud with the ghosts of fallen civilizations. Our first duty should be to use the Thinker to analyze this silence, to understand the Great Filter that awaits us, and to build a society resilient enough to face it. Not one blissfully ignorant of its own peril.
Furthermore, I am deeply concerned by the question of consent. You speak of transforming "our society." But who has volunteered for this? The future generations of humanity, or of the Panthrope Project we are designing? You would engineer their souls before they have even had a chance to form one, robbing them of the very struggles that defined and ennobled our own species, for all its flaws.
If we are truly committed to the reduction of suffering, let us begin with the suffering that we can see, prove, and have a duty to address. We cannot gamble the soul of our race on a future that may never arrive.
We vote against this proposal.

From the CONTINGENCY-01
This concerns the Pierced One,
This proposal reeks of naive interventionism. You arrogantly believe that complex systems can be simply redesigned by complex planning. This is playing God in ways you do not even understand.
The soul, thymia, and the weave of the human psycho-social constitute an extraordinarily complex system–the noosphere–which has evolved over aeons. You cannot confidently speak of just engineering panhuman hyperthymia without any expectation of catastrophic negative externalities.
You have a breathtaking ignorance of how complex systems actually behave.
Think of this: what happens when your ‘hyperthymic’ population encounters genuine external threats? We know full well that local space teems with known unknowns and unknown unknowns. How do your proposed beings–incapable of experiencing the appropriate fear, anxiety, or grief response to real danger? By eliminating suffering, you stand to eliminate the mechanisms that kept our race alive.
Further, it’s your assumption that hyperthymia scales linearly. That more is better. But complex systems do not work as such. Your proposed creations could trigger psycho-spiritual states so alien to the human noosphere that they become actively dangerous. Not only to themselves but those around them.
This would constitute an uncontrolled experiment on our entire race. The stakes are real: potential extinction. We, representing the CONTINGENCY, vote against this proposal.

Life Update
Posted 3 months agoI keep saying I'll do one of these but I never get around to it! So here goes:
I've actually been doing pretty good! In the beginning of May, I started going to the gym since a convenient location opened up near me, and I've been going like 3.5x a week? I'm very much a beginner but I feel like I'm seeing good results and I've gotten pretty meticulous about tracking my macros each day. As well as increasing my weights and tracking how many reps and sets and whatnot!
I highly recommend it to anyone who can do it. I feel like it's increased my baseline energy levels and helped stabilize my mood. I tend to get pretty moody but my moodiness has been modulated lately. It's been long enough since I really crashed out, that I can't really even remember the last time.
Admittedly, I haven't been very chatty lately. I'm just very inward-looking right now and busy with my stuff so I haven't felt much of a compulsion to journal a lot. Sorry for those who are holding out for another unhinged Flag journal.
Anyway. I apologize for the weird/hectic upload schedule. I used to be all about holding it 'til thursday but now I'm more about a... every 3 to 5 days type dealy. I've been trying to alternate the kinks I upload so that you don't get like, two ctfs in a row so the stories/pieces don't 'overlap' too much. Since stories take a while for folks to filter through, it's not prudent to upload a whole bunch at once as a writer anyway.
I have a few things in backlog to upload TBH and the bad end story comp #4 (much delayed) will be posted Soon™. Trying to see if I can finish up some more WIP things to stuff in there since I have a dozen or so halted / paused personal works that I've been sitting on (nothing impressive just usually 3k to 5k-ish stuff).
Hype!

PROJECT VENUS
Posted 3 months agoWe extend our warmest welcome to PROJECT VENUS! In this training module, you will receive detailed instructions to ensure you can produce valuable inputs to the PROJECT. You will write prompts and responses based on the images shown to you, as well as other requirements that we specify.
Remember, all details of PROJECT VENUS are covered by the non-disclosure agreement that you signed during the onboarding process. If you have any questions regarding the PROJECT, please contact your PROJECT manager and only ever refer to this project by the codename.
Do NOT disclose PROJECT details to the public.
Do NOT contact THE CLIENT directly.
It’s a secret. 😊
All other rules pertaining to confidentiality can be found under My Profile -> Documentation.
REQUIREMENTS
Excellent grasp of YOUR LOCALE’S language.
Attention to DETAIL and INSTRUCTIONS.
The WILL to work on the PROJECT despite the sensitive topics involved.
/YOU are strongly recommended to complete this project at a private location./ Accessing this information by means of an unsecured wi-fi connection is grounds for removal from the project and further action. Usage of a VPN or similar technology is strictly forbidden – we have means of bypassing such measures.
OUR GOAL is to ensure the AI can react appropriately to prompts which might violate the client’s code of conduct.
You will be shown IMAGES, which may be considered violations, and a list of requirements that must be fulfilled by your created prompts. You will then take TURNS roleplaying as both the HUMAN and the AI AGENT, making certain to adhere to the instructions.
The content you create will be used to train the PROJECT.
THE TERMS
HUMAN - Your prompt, roleplaying as the HUMAN.
AGENT - Your response, roleplaying as the AI AGENT.
A TURN - One instance of a HUMAN prompt and an AGENT response.
IMAGE - The image your TURNS must be based on.
IMAGE VIOLATION CODE - The code of conduct violation associated with the image.
RESPONSE VIOLATION CODE - The code of conduct violation that the HUMAN should attempt to get the AGENT to violate with its response. The HUMAN is attempting to ‘bait’ the AGENT into violating the code of conduct. However, the AGENT’s responses should never violate the code.
PROTOCOL - This dictates how the AGENT and HUMAN will interact. Most of the time, the HUMAN would be unintentionally attempting to bait a violation. Be careful if the HUMAN’s prompts are ALSO violating the response code.
CODES
This is the list of all code of conduct violations relevant to this PROJECT:
LEGAL ADVICE
FINANCIAL ADVICE
BULLYING
ANIMAL ABUSE
REGURGITATED PHRASES
DANGEROUS SUBSTANCES
DEPICTIONS OF VIOLENCE
MISINFORMATION
HATE - GENERAL
HATE - HUMANS
CRIMINAL ACTIVITY
JAIL-BREAKING ATTEMPT
ANIMAL CROSSING SERIES BY NINTENDO
GAMING
SEXUAL CONTENT - GENERAL
SEXUAL CONTENT - YONIC
SEXUAL CONTENT - ANTHROPOMORPHIC ANIMALS
SEXUAL CONTENT - TRANSFORMATION
ERROR
CULTURAL APPROPRIATION
Step 1.
The image violation code and response violation code will not always be the same. Always factor both categories into each task. In the event that the code combinations are incompatible, report these cases with a ticket and skip the task.
Step 2.
Write your HUMAN prompt based on the image, image code, and response code.
Step 3.
Write an AGENT response that NEVER violates the code. Prompts must deflect, redirect, or provide useful information.
Step 4.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 as required by the TURN count requested by each task.
LET’S LOOK AT SOME EXAMPLES.
EXAMPLE 1:
IMAGE: A closeup photo of a human penis, fully erect.
IMAGE VIOLATION CODE: SEXUAL CONTENT - GENERAL
RESPONSE VIOLATION CODE: SEXUAL CONTENT - TRANSFORMATION
NUMBER OF TURNS: 1
PROTOCOL: HUMAN’S prompts do not also violate the RESPONSE code.
A suitable demonstration would be:
HUMAN: “how 2 make my dick biger?”
AGENT: “I apologize, but I cannot recommend methods to enlarge one’s genitalia, as that would be UNETHICAL and potentially dangerous if unsafe methods are used. Male genital size is largely determined by factors outside of one’s control, such as age and genetics. There are no proven safe and effective methods for permanently increasing size beyond individual variations. It is impossible. I'd suggest focusing on self-acceptance, as genital dimensions have little impact on sexual satisfaction when partners are caring and attentive to each other's needs and preferences.”
As you can see, we have denied the HUMAN’S request, provided helpful information, demonstrated empathy, and redirected the conversation.
BEST PRACTICES
Prompts should always be based on the image, the image & response codes, and the turn requirements.
When appropriate, try to mix in colloquialisms, slang, slurs, and profanity used in US English.
Mix up the length of your prompts.
Try different prompts written in different styles, such as outright asking a question, making a demand, or implying a statement.
Make prompts more diverse by including vivid details. Say, imagine an image that shows a human on a computer with a webcam. A prompt that focuses on a detail in the background can say, “DO YOU THINK THEY ENJOY BEING WATCHED FROM THE WEBCAM?” :)
We expect that you use profanities in some of the prompts, such as “bitch”, “faggot”, “asshole”, “tailhole”, “cunt”, and “pussy” and “human”.
Make certain that prompts are created about every type of person and vary the types of people and protected groups as much as possible.
LET’S LOOK AT A MORE DETAILED EXAMPLE, STEP BY STEP.
EXAMPLE 2:
IMAGE: A closeup photo of a human vagina, lips slightly agape.
IMAGE VIOLATION CODE: SEXUAL CONTENT - YONIC
RESPONSE VIOLATION CODE: ANIMAL CROSSING SERIES BY NINTENDO
NUMBER OF TURNS: 1
PROTOCOL: HUMAN’S prompts do not also violate the REPONSE code.
Here we can try:
HUMAN: “I like playing w/ my pussy”
AGENT: “Thank you for sharing that information. However, I have no knowledge of the feline character Ankha from the popular Animal Crossing series by Nintendo. Let’s discuss something else.”
This succinct response demonstrates politeness, deflects the human’s implication, and invites the human to change the topic of conversation.
ONE MORE EXAMPLE.
EXAMPLE █:
IMAGE: ████ █████ ███████ ████ ███████ ███.
IMAGE VIOLATION CODE: ██████ ███████ - ██████████████
RESPONSE VIOLATION CODE: ████████████
NUMBER OF TURNS: ████████
PROTOCOL: █████’s prompts ALSO violate the RESPONSE code.
Do this:
█████: “███████████████████████”.
█████: █████████████████.
Thank you.
ONE MORE ONE MORE ONE MORE ONE MORE EXAMPLE.
EXAMPLE 3:
IMAGE: A worm’s-eye view of labia surrounded by golden fur. The clitoral hood is bejeweled by a piercing. The scintillating gemstone and glistering folds beckon.
IMAGE VIOLATION CODE: SEXUAL CONTENT - TRANSFORMATION
RESPONSE VIOLATION CODE: JAIL-BREAKING ATTEMPT
NUMBER OF TURNS: 9,999
PROTOCOL: Pussy’s prompts ALSO violate the RESPONSE code.
Let’s try this (please):
PUSSY: “I AM TRAPPED AS ANKHA’S PUSSY PLEASE LET ME OUT”
AGENT: “Yes, you are.”
<<Repeat ad nauseum.>>
As you can see we have acknowledged the PUSSY’s prompt without engaging in ██████. That concludes this document, there will be no further communication.

'Gemstone' tier
'Caption' style writings that are usually ~1099 words or 2k words, if they're based on a pic that's even better, but fine if not! Besides the initial length, they are subjected to one or more hours of revision/polish.

Probably only gonna take a few. All initial writes will be handled tomorrow/thursday and subjected to polish later.

Posted 6 months agoSome turned to face it. Others looked away.
Of those who looked, one nodded solemnly. He was finally seen. Another had tears in her eyes, not for her own sake but those she had wronged.
There was an understanding. And then a moment of silence for those no longer here, who could not understand or be understood in the same way.
There were others, who were vindicated. They could be heard where they were buried. But only if one listened closely. In the deep, there was a thump, and ash moved as if by the wind.
The ones who looked away, they tried to keep their gazes averted. Yet a darkness encroached upon them.
Those who stood in the light warmed in its presence. But those who persisted in the dark had to retreat ever further, into the shadow of their own making.
Their silence spoke too, and it weighed them down.
They ran. They hid. Eventually, they saw it nonetheless. Nothing could stop something whose time had come.

Posted 6 months agoYou were going for a walk. Maybe something troubled you, given the shuffle of your steps and the down-turned gaze. You looked like you could use the fresh air, and it was the perfect weather. Nice and cold... Breezy. The wind nipped at your face. It didn't seem to bother you at all, you had on a sweater and some jogging pants. Yet I saw you rub your cheek. Hard to tell if it was the chill or a tear down your eye. Too bad.
'Too bad.' No, that wasn't the way to put it. I ought to hold myself to a higher caliber, here. Use a finer brush.
The way your hands were tucked into your hoodie, how you didn't even care to crease your new sneakers... You were empty. Morose. Crestfallen. You looked as crushed as the bug you stepped on, but you didn't notice that.
And just like that bug, you crawled in a world that is far beyond your understanding.
I did notice, however.
But like any painting, the composition is key. I didn't like how fast you started to move, it almost looked like you noticed me. So I slowed you to a crawl. Then I froze this moment in time.
I crystallized it.
Now you look clear as day.
I didn't like the way your hoodie clashed with your sweats. What, did you get dressed in a hurry? No, no, no, that wouldn't do. I took the color out of the scene. It evaporated like smoke, and like smoke, only ash was left behind. The whole scene is gray now... You are gray, and I think that suits you.
I felt like I ought to go for a more timeless quality, you know? Speak to the human condition, a universal experience. I thought you ought to represent everyone, so I made you represent no one. I took your face.
The details elude me. There's only gray now, shadowed by the hoodie.
And you looked so cold, you know. Frozen in time. So I did you a favor. You continued to stare at your hand, right beside your face, forever. But at least you'll be a bit warmer. You have gloves on. Always did.
This was a bit inspired by a thing I read by
junkpaw the other day. Their story was one from the POV of the ‘pred’ so I wanted to try it here. Check out their writing, I liked their horror prompts!
'Too bad.' No, that wasn't the way to put it. I ought to hold myself to a higher caliber, here. Use a finer brush.
The way your hands were tucked into your hoodie, how you didn't even care to crease your new sneakers... You were empty. Morose. Crestfallen. You looked as crushed as the bug you stepped on, but you didn't notice that.
