The sheer existential dread I felt in January this year when they were "flooding the zone", versus the tiny glimmer of hope I now have on December 31, seeing the MAGA cult fray, seeing the orange man himself peter out, and watching Republicans get trounced in elections across the country has been night and day.

It can't be understated that people were hurt this year. Normal everyday people are waking up to it, and aren't having this shit, and that's the one thing that helps me sleep at night. This administration is unable to be FOR anything that would actually help its everyday citizens, and it'll bite them in the ass eventually.

Here's to a 2026 of watching that play out

if you've ever worked with text based LLMs for chatting, creative writing or roleplay there are LLMisms that are very easy to pick out. extremely cliched lines that the LLM will always go-to because it's trained on averages and on average those are the kinds of things people write, particularly in fanfiction (which is something else they're trained on). i can't remember the exact line but the first one that really stuck out to me was when Max was having her loooooooong exposition in her S5 intro where she's explaining to Holly the mechanics of everything and she says something like, "Not x. It's y." which is a very common LLMism. there were more, like some of Henry's dialogue, but i didn't bother to note them all down. eventually there's going to be youtube videos about it because they already got caught using AI in the end credits with those fucked up gens no one bothered to edit.

The only reason for any retard to think this is because they’re overly emotional and were easily swayed by the feel good epilogue, which is incredibly was to write. You just make up a bunch of careers for everyone and show them happy and thriving. But prior to the epilogue the ending was awful. They ignored all their previous lore and their build up to the final fight just offed Vecna and the MF in two second flat. The entire season was poorly acted exposition dumps and insane contrivances to get us to the point where Vecna dies. Anyone who likes this ending is a certified midwit. And no, Eleven isn’t alive. The entire point of her ending is to be ambiguous. She’s both dead and alive depending on what the series feels like doing in the future.

The show was never as good as season 1 but it could've been forgiven if season 4 was the actual finale. The problem I see is that season 5 shouldn't even exist at all when season 4 was more climactic:
>Went back to the conspiratorial and horror theme of season 1
>Whole season had a sense of self-importance, a bloated runtime and an epic tone that only would've made sense if it was the final season
>The town was turning against the characters because of the Satanic Panic
>Plot came full circle -- Eleven was connected with Vecna, she gets her powers back, her adoptive father dies and she circumvents the military
>The show was actually high-stakes -- the characters had antagonists from all sides, Vecna killed a bunch of people, Max was crippled, they were totally outmatched by him until Eleven arrived
>The Upside Down was finally terrorizing Hawkins as a whole at the cliffhanger, it felt like the final battle was just about to happen
Literally all they had to do was change the shitty Russia/California subplots and have an extra episode after the cliffhanger where they destroy Vecna and the Mindflayer. Season 4 would've been a perfectly acceptable sendoff. Instead they retconned the cliffhanger and gave us an awful final season for no reason.

Obviously the man in the well was a government agent, by tracking his attire with the official ID card hanging.

Details on the live-action 'Stranger Things' spinoff

• Doesn't involve the Upside Down

• Has a completely different story, location, characters, and actors

• It's set in a different decade

• Duffer Brothers are heavily involved but won't be the showrunners

• A scene in the series finale hints at what it will be

"It's very different ... but it's also very much 'Stranger Things'"

They read an AI-made story on Creepcast last week, and it was full of those, and only a handful of people picked up on it even though it was painfully obvious, then they banned everyone from reddit for discussing it, and they claim it was human-made.

Again I don't think this is true. There's a very particular dorky cadence to how this show is written in season 5. You can picture the writers in their writing room figuring out exactly what to explain, which random characters to give lines of dialogue, etc. It isn't with the help of an LLM because frankly it could do a better job.

a lot of what the military was doing was justified as being part of the Cold War, if we don't weaponize psychics or the other dimension the Russians will do it first, that sort of thing.

>>217051158
it becomes really obvious when you spend a few months doing it, i've been RPing with LLMs for a year so whenever i see AI writing pop up elsewhere it's super noticeable to me. like the surviving children of Rob Reiner released a statement authored with GPT, i picked up on it right away. i don't think they used a TON of AI for Season 5 but someone was definitely doing script doctoring or editing with it.

So then what were they doing, genius? Why was the military hell-bent on getting Eleven? Why did they not address the threat of Vecna even after he killed a bunch of them? Why did they just randomly disappear with no explanation after Eleven died even though they know people like Hopper killed a fuckload of soldiers? Why wasn't the federal government involved after knowing Russia learned about the Upside Down and was trying to open it to destroy America -- surely that would be more important than finding some little girl they know isn't the one killing people?

Everyone in these threads acknowledges the season was shit and the show declined after season 1, we watch it because we like watching characters solve fun mysteries and fight monsters in a John Carpenter/Amblin Entertainment esque format.

their genetic advantage is speed; they're just faster than everybody else, so they were always going to excel at anything speed related
another factor is their culture, which puts heavy emphasis on some kinds of athleticism

My concept for a similar show inspired by the Morlocks in the Time Machine -- a bunch of kids in a small town notice that many anachronistic things start appearing from other time periods. they meet a boy and girl from medieval times who lead them to discover time rips in some underground science lab with a broken time machine. an advanced race from the future like the elder-king morlock in the 2002 Time Machine movie is the main villain and hunts down the kids throughout the show and they have to travel through time to fix the wormholes

i don't know some shit like that

Time travel plots are never done well, unfortunately. Could be interesting if you tweak it a bit and remove the time travel parts somehow.

Russia was a stinger at the end of season 2 and that was as much thought as the writers ever gave to it.

Yeah, Jonathan’s chasing a pipe dream movie career when he’s not even Jewish, Nancy’s entering a career path that little more than 10 years into the future is going to crater hard. Robin’s entire character is that she’s going to lez college. Steve’s the only one with a genuine chance at a happy future and his six nuggets.
