A screenshot of a tweet by the official Royal Mint of the UK (@RoyalMintUK on Twitter) reading "You've heard of elf on the shelf. Now get ready for..." above a picture of the new British penny with an image of King Charles' head.ALT
A reply to the above tweet reading "Git on a bit?"ALT
Another reply to the above tweet reading "Not my king on a shilling?"ALT
Another reply reading "Brother of a child sex offender on legal tender?"ALT
Another reply reading: "Fash on the cash?"ALT
Another reply reading "Unelected head of state on coinage that is out of date"ALT

I’d like to formally thank the people of the UK and Ireland today for their rhyming prowess and forcing the Royal Mint to turn off replies to this tweet in RECORD time lmfao

And last but not least, the pièce de resistance that inspired about 90% of the hidden replies:

A quote retweet of the Royal Mint's original tweet from Derec Thompson reading "The Irish word for pound is pùnt and that is why you should have some diversity in your marketing teams."ALT

For anyone wondering, it was in fact meant to be “sovereign on a sovereign” 🤦

Ach no, give it to the Irish, they win

i can’t get over how dumb this was, it’s called a sovereign in the first place because of the monarch face on it

I honestly didn’t know who that guy was supposed to be until I read the replies

Fact 1: In most versions of Dungeons & Dragons, when infected – as opposed to natural-born – lycanthropes transform under the full moon, they assume the default alignment of their type during the ensuing mindless rampage.

Fact 2: In most versions of Dungeons & Dragons, the default alignment of werebears is Lawful Good.

Conclusion: When an infected werebear transforms under the full moon, they go on a mindless Lawful Good rampage.

thinking about this one horrible american propaganda videogame, “america’s army”, where in multiplayer no matter what side you were on you would see yourself and your allies as the us military, and the opposing team as “terrorists”, but they would see your team as the “terrorists” and themselves as the us army. its probably the most accidental social commentary i’ve ever seen.

everyone in palestine is disabled btw. if not by physical disability then by debilitating trauma that WILL develop into ptsd (bc lbr they’re not even in the POST traumatic event stage. they’re suffering complex trauma that WILL Cause ptsd or Cptsd). this is a disabled rights issue. if they werent disabled before they are now! theres also so many palestinians with pre existing disabilities who have to go without treatment, meds, mobility aids, support… there are autistic palestinians as well! and palestinians with down syndrome! and palestinians with bipolar, schizophrenia, etc who probably haven’t had access to meds in MONTHS. imagine having untreated schizophrenia and being in an active war zone

there are palestinians who were disabled before the genocide, there are palestinians who became disabled during, and more are to come if something is not done and thats just the physical conditions. this is a human issue, a feminist issue, a disabled issue. everyone should be mad

I came up with a new saying:

“You wouldn’t bake a cat just because it jumped into the oven.”

It means that just having a really, really good opportunity to do something awful is not an excuse to do it. That it isn’t enough that you never go out of your way to do evil, you’re also supposed to go out of your way to do the right thing, even in situations where the wrong thing to do would be extremely easy and profitable, and passively allowing it to happen would be easier than going out of your way to do better than that.

Japan Court Rules Trans Man Can Change Gender Marker Without Surgery

Them reports:

A Japanese court this week approved a transgender man’s legal gender change without first requiring sterilization, marking a major step forward for trans rights in the country.

Takakito Usui, 50, won recognition of his gender before the Okayama Family Court’s Tsuyama branch on Wednesday. “I want to thank my family. I feel a new life is beginning,” Usui, a farmer living in the rural Yamagata Prefecture, said at a press conference on Wednesday following the ruling.

Usui previously petitioned to change his legal gender in 2016, the paper noted, but was rejected because he had not been medically sterilized, as was then required under Japanese law. In October, Japan’s Supreme Court struck down the 2003 statute requiring trans people to be sterilized before obtaining legal recognition.

ways that you can support Palestine, other than donating. (from a high school student!) remember that anything counts.

1.) TALK ABOUT IT!! silence kills. Reblog as many things as you can, share posts with friends, post on your stories and accounts. if you’re in a safe enough environment, talk about it with family. do not stop talking about Palestine and the genocide isreal is committing.

2.) educate yourself—read up on what’s going on, why it’s happening. learn about what israel and the IDF are doing, listen to the stories Palestinians are telling. They’re begging to be heard, and you have the power to listen to them.

3.) visit this masterlist about Palestine by @palipunk there are so many sources and ways to support Palestine right now.

has everyone gotten their knee-jerk reactions to palworld out. can i throw my two cents in

speaking as both an artist and a game dev student, the fact that people were so quick to jump to pocket pair’s (the company behind palworld) defense in regards to ripping off pokemon was highly concerning. even though there is evidence that they have literally ripped at least one model from pokemon directly.

and there is also no denying they have taken at least some “inspiration” regarding their other designs.

and a lot of people may go “there’s no problem, they’re ripping off nintendo who is a huge company”. well, if they can get away with ripping off nintendo, what happens when they start ripping off smaller companies?

at first glance, what game do you think this is? nope, it’s not actually hollow knight. this is pocket pair’s upcoming game “never grave: the with and the curse”. hollow knight was made by only three people. that is a far cry from nintendo’s massive company.

and although usage of ai generation may not be used in palworld, the company its from is no stranger to using ai art for their other games.

palworld exists as a novelty, haha funny pokemon game but with guns. but the moment you look into it, the company its from does some shady things. personally i would not want to support a company like it

You also forgot the part where Pocket Pair plagiarized fan pokemon designs with no compensation or credit.

That Mega Delphox was originally drawn by an artist by the name of pyroaura98 (their DA is down so here’s a repost, as unfortunate as I had to do this: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/320037117242282149/)

To the left is the pal Arsox and to the right is Flairees, who was made for a fangame called Pokémon Sage (https://antifandom.com/capx/wiki/Flairees)

The CEO of Pocket Pair also a big cryptobro, proudly announcing himself to be the founder of Coincheck, a japanese cryptocoin service.

(the name Takuro Mizobe isn’t listed on the wikipedia article, which, after some research, appears to be due to him leaving the company to start his game dev studio)

Here he is on an official company document listed along the currently documented founders.

sick of hearing about “healing crystals” that “cleanse your mind and body of negative energy” i want to know which rocks can hurt you and fuck up your vibe so bad

everyone suggesting uranium isn’t wrong but anyone who said “literally any rock if you’re willing to resort to violence” are the only people who can get on my level. you’re hired.

caincore

okay which fandom that sprung up out of nowhere overnight like mushrooms after rain is this a reference to i can’t keep up anymore

oh you meant like. that guy from the bible who invented murder. right.

i think cocaine abuse qualifies for “rock that hurts you and fucks up your vibe”

Is cocaine a rock? I know it’s referred to like that, but like physically, would it meet the qualifications for a rock? Isn’t it more like a spice?

Salt is a spice and a rock

Yeah, but isn’t cocaine derived from a plant like pepper corns?

So cocaine is a grain?

if gender is what’s in my pants then my gender is YOUR MOM lol anyway yeah I heard you’re nonbinary do you have a penis. are you girl agender or boy agender. are you girl nonbinary or boy nonbinary. you have multiple genders but like are you more girl or boy. ok you’re neither but are you more boy or girl. no haha I get it like no gender lol but seriously do you have a penis. is it a boy penis or a girl penis. it’s honestly really weird that you don’t want to answer this question honestly I’m just going to assume you have a dangerous male penis and tell all my friends that you’re a bad person

some of you people only think “agab is private and you don’t have to share it” ONLY because you are under the assumptions that transfem = amab and transmasc = afab and that anyone who falls outside of those distinctions will be easy for you to clock. it is irrelevant to you because you think you can always tell and that much is deeply and blatantly obvious

“It’s necessary for Palestinians to die because otherwise Israelis would never be able to exterminate Hamas!” “Iraqi citizens had to die because the US had to retaliate for the Iran-backed drone attack!” When will you learn that Arab people are not just collateral fucking damage. When will you learn they are not a means to an end. When will you stop dehumanizing Arab people in your endless attempts to justify the mindless slaughter that has been taking place for years, but which has intensified beyond belief the last four months. Why do you need to be told to treat Arab people like they’re human. Why do you need to be told this. Why do you need to be told.

Palestinian landmarks have been completely demolished in the name of exterminating Hamas. Thousands upon thousands of Palestinians have been killed in ways so brutal that some on-site journalists have admitted that they couldn’t bring themselves to press down on the camera. Children and women are living in famine, in sickness, in agony every day. How could you look at all that and use the same tired excuse of “Well we have to take care of Hamas!!” like why are you so anti-Arab racist that it causes you to be out of touch with your own humanity? How do you have it in your heart to see innocent citizens murdered as nothing but collateral damage? How would you react if it were your family that was genocided? How would you react if it were you?

Autistic spaces are getting so much more hostile towards people with low empathy, and it sucks

There was a subreddit I really liked, people were chill, and then there was a sudden influx of people making posts like ‘Autistic people have empathy! Saying we don’t makes us seem like monsters! Thats not a symptom!’ And people making posts explaining that no, actually, some of us do have low empathy got attacked and told they were wrong or ableist? And it sucks, because its just so hard to find a place to exist where you can be seen as not evil? I don’t know, it just hurts a lot to be told that

Both major UK political parties and the British media are complicit in this.

Rishi Sunak mocked trans people in Parliament in front of the grieving mother of a murdered trans girl.

Keir Starmer hand-waved the transphobic hatred behind the murder aside and used the mother to pledge more mental health support for teens.

Sky News sought out transphobes for their VoxPop regarding whether trans people should be allowed to take part in park runs. They couldn’t find anyone who said trans people should be excluded but they ran with ‘Park Run CONTROVERSY’ as their editorial line.
