That's a great answer. Thank you. To answer your question: I find that I can locate a lot of neat and informative stuff online but I'm being a little selfish here. I learn better when asking questions and having people answer in their own words. I know a lot but it helps cement things I've already read or heard. Also a lot of what I'm thinking about contains subjective matter. It helps with objective fact to read articles but even armed with a bunch of facts (some conflicting and some from bad sources) I feel my understanding really shines when I'm communicating with real people. I'm also using it as a temperature check for if I can ask these questions normally and how people take it. I don't mind downvotes or negative reactions online but I mind if I piss off a group of people I know. I really am just kind of an old dunce stumbling around a world I was never familiar with in the past. I'm way better at not deadnaming or misgendering but this kind of discourse really tells me a lot even if it's all negative.

Oh and last of all I'm happy to read any new material dropped here. I'm really bad at finding good scientific articles. And distinguishing AI. And not getting scammed. I find people here are trustworthy and don't really lead you wrong all that often.

I get all of that, I'm not here to judge, I was just kinda authentically curious.

Let me know if you have any questions, I have plenty of personal experience as well as facts I'm willing to talk about, this is obviously an important topic to me.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
