I’m actually not, because I don’t even WANT to know the age difference between y’all. Also, I feel bad for your “boyfriend” because he has to deal with a monster gf.

I’m not touching that internalized monsterphobia with a fifty foot pole.

I love how OP assumes I’m a girl. I am in fact a very very gay vampy guy and my bf actually likes being with me. I’m sure OP doesn’t know what that’s like, but….

If you’re having trouble keeping up with what’s going on in Palestine because of US news coverage of university protests, here are some articles you can read and a video you can watch:
While CNN & all the other mainstream media try to paint the university protests as “pro terrorism” (which they’re not, they’re literally anti-war protests.) Palestinians are being slaughtered by the minute.
Please don’t stop speaking about Palestine.
”college kids are out of control” every college with a major protest is getting swarmed by riot police and every person they arrest gets pinned by six cops a person.
Conservatives love to tout the first amendment until people they don’t like use it.
one time on another platform when i was super new to self shipping i was like. how can you believe your f/o loves you back? and someone replied “don’t they bring you comfort? that is their love for you”
i keep seeing this idea that Real wheelchair users all have custom active chairs, and that transport/standard chairs are just an embarrassing stereotype. “no one really uses those!” “stop drawing disabled characters in standard chairs!!”
well, plenty of us are a stereotype. sorry. custom chairs require MONEY and good medical support. meanwhile active chairs are unusable for some people. i used an uncomfy transport chair (the kind with tiny wheels and no way to self propel) for a year, and a standard chair for 7yrs. until i got my powerchair i was only ever pushed by a carer. a lot of disabled people will never use an active or custom chair. don’t pretend we don’t exist just because we don’t fit some cool independent ideal.
shoutout to people who use transport chairs and adaptive strollers and other chairs that need to be pushed by a carer
shoutout to people who use standard chairs that don’t fit their body
shoutout to people who use secondhand or makeshift wheelchairs
in my teens i literally felt invalid as a disabled person because i didnt have the ‘real actual’ type of wheelchair everyone talks about online. just my garbage transport chair that my mom had to push. but people with shitty wheelchairs exist and are extremely common actually
This! I see this criticism a lot in disability circles, and we really need to move away from it. Lots of real wheelchair users use hospital chairs. We can criticise movie studios/game devs/character artists for not doing proper research without throwing the people who use these chairs irl under the bus and invalidating them.
In my own art tutorial I used 2 active chairs as the first examples, because the point was to demonstrate how to make structurally similar wheelchairs distinct and reflect the characters using them, but I made sure to explain that having the money or living somewhere where the cost of the chair is paid for/subsidised was one of the things to consider when giving a character a chair like that. I’m planning to do a similar tutorial for other styles of wheelchairs (including hosptial/transport wheelchairs) soon too.
Seriously. I mean it. Because inevitably you will love something that no one else loves. Or you will love something that everyone loves and people will shit all over it because it’s “so trite and unimaginative and done.” Or you will love something that no one else has ever heard of. Or you will love something dark and edgy and or obscure and people will roll their eyes and say, “What, do you want people to think you’re dark and edgy and obscure?”
Alternatively, you will not love the thing that everyone else loves, and you will wonder what precisely is wrong with you that the sight of that thing is aggravating the shit out of you now when the whole world sings its praises as one.
People will irritate you. They’ll irritate you with headcanons that make no sense and misinterpretations of canon. They will make the same jokes 500 times. They will overwhelm your corner of fandom with something you either are tired of hearing about or don’t care about. They will post art that isn’t theirs. You will meet people who think you are the greatest person ever and bombard you with messages only to wander off when they find someone new or shinier; you will meet people whom you admire and who do not really seem to notice you exist.
So give zero fucks about it. Seriously. Like what you like, blacklist what you need to blacklist, and ignore everything else. Be friends, play nice, enjoy it. And in the meantime, just do you. Like what you like, love what you love, and to hell with all the rest of it.
“he would not fucking say that” but about injuries. he would not fucking recover that quickly. those scars would not fucking heal like that. he would not be fucking able bodied after that. he would not be fully lucid after that.
so when food is too salty we might say “打死卖盐的” basically meaning “did you beat the salt merchant to death” but one time in an attempt to be a little polite and a little funny to the chef (my mother) i said “……是不是又跟卖盐的有矛盾了” meaning “are you… having a dispute with the salt merchant again” and now it’s a whole thing in my family
anyway point being there has been another altercation with the salt merchant
love how when i get a new interest, i’m like “oh god it’s happening again” and i’m stuck like that for about a week until everything explodes and any interest i’ve had prior is completely dwarfed for an unknown amount of time

Hey what the fuck
NAZIS GO HOME IS A SYMBOL OF DOMESTIC TERRORISM????
This may be a bold reach, but I was researching McCarthyism and the Red Scare for history and this is sounding awfully familiar to me…
Ok sorry for reblogging this one post constantly but this is kinda important.
People in the comments are pointing out that it’s specified that these symbols aren’t stated to be acts of terrorism themselves but rather are used by violent groups and may be something to look out for, but the thing is that this is still dangerous.
These symbols are related to specific political ideologies or important movements, often civil rights movements. These movements often involve calling out the government on its bullshit and calling for a large-scale change in how things are run, and have historically faced opposition from law enforcement, sometimes to violent extremes.
By classifying these symbols and phrases as domestic terrorism symbols, they’re associating these movements with terrorism. They’re framing groups that support or follow these ideals as potential terrorists. People who say or wear these things will be met with suspicion and may be faced with accusations or unfair treatment simply because of the symbols. People will view the people who use them as terrorists due to the association.
They’re framing people who call to defund the police as terrorists. They’re framing anti capitalists as terrorists. THEY’RE FRAMING ANTI-NAZI IDEOLOGIES AS FUCKING TERRORISTS.
This has happened before. During the Red Scare, many prominent parts of the government framed specific beliefs, behaviors, and movements as potential signs of communism and therefore potentially dangerous. Even though very few accusations made against people had any evidence and most fell through, these accusations left the people affected with a diminished reputation and in some cases lost them their jobs and had them blacklisted from their respective industries. Conservatism was at an all-time high, and some even tried to use accusations of communism to discredit the Civil Rights movement and MLK.
It hasn’t gotten nearly that far yet, but the signs are beginning to show. This could potentially be very dangerous and ruin many lives if things progress further in this direction. Please, fucking listen to reason.
Fourth in a series I of comics about protesting safety tips I made with @this.is.ysabel . This one is about the dangers of police surveillance and how to avoid it if possible. Keep being safe when you go out. Don’t get snatched!
It REALLY is fucking funny how there is genuinely a distinct third faction in AI discourse on this site that is not “Pro-AI” but “The anti-AI crowd is talking about divine sparks of creativity and shit and I’m not about that”
Okay so I’ve seen multiple people on this post talk about the environmental impact of AI and I was under the assumption that it was somewhat overblown? (to my knowledge) There’s a noticeable pull in terms of power during the initial training of the larger models but casual use has a much lower drain on the environment than like, bitcoin mining.
I always sideye claims about environmental concerns related to computer usage (the exception being crypto because the power usage is the ONLY tangible output of the process, there’s nothing else involved, it’s a “take the wheels off the car and gun the engine” sort of process) because they’re a) usually completely incorrect, either on purpose or because they’re calculated by people who don’t understand what they’re doing, and b) suspiciously only a consideration for something someone hates. I have never, ever heard anyone question what the total environmental impact of Tumblr is. Or gmail. Computer usage magically has no environmental impact unless it’s doing the one thing you don’t like.
Giant data centers are being built with the express purpose of training AI
“Cloud AI” on the scale they want would have a noticeable impact.
Of course, all “cloud” computing should be more sustainable than it is now, but AI is only going to make things worse, while just like bitcoin not providing nearly enough benefit to justify it.
Stock market, baby! It’s never been more acceptable to put all your money in one basket. When everyone’s an investor, everyone is going to get rich! There’s absolutely no way that this infinite growth train of non-stop roulette wins could turn out badly for us long- or even medium-term.
When I was still a respectable stockbroker, before the Lobster Incident – I’m sorry, my biographer has now legally forbidden me from publicly talking about it as part of an elaborate NDA – I made some good money. Sure, I made most of it for my employer, a soulless investment bank that controls all aspects of human existence, but all of those air-cooled vintage Porsches and mansions stuffed to the gills with speedboat parts didn’t fall out of the sky.
Life’s funny, huh? Now we’re sitting here on the side of the road, heating up a single expired cocktail weenie over a can of lantern fuel. For me, it turns out that my award-winning trading strategy of “lose a whole bunch of money in the morning, only to make that money back by the end of the day” actually sometimes just lost a whole bunch of money. Pension funds figured it out at around the same time I told them that their accounts were empty, but we’re all hurting around here – I can’t afford a fourth speedboat on the shitty bonus they paid me.
What really made things bad for me was not the enormous trading losses, or the aforementioned Incident, but the fact that I was rude to a guy dressed as the janitor. You guessed it: genie in disguise. I was cursed for a thousand years for my bad manners. Tale as old as time. Wall Street is full of those fae, you know. Even Bay Street is, but they smell more like maple syrup and speak French, so it’s easier to avoid them.
I dreamed that I was playing mariokart and there was a track that took 3 days to complete and when I somehow managed to get 1st place a popup came onscreen that had a pic of koopa troopa and text that read “congratulations!! you’re gonna have so much sex” and I started laughing so hard I woke up
dude seeing these Mega high quality images of the surface of mars that we now have has me fucked up. Like. Mars is a place. mars is a real actual place where one could hypothetically stand. It is a physical place in the universe. ITS JUST OUT THERE LOOKING LIKE UH IDK A REGULAR OLD DESERT WITH LOTS OF ROCKS BUT ITS A WHOLE OTHER PLANET?
LIKE THIS JUST LOOKS LIKE IT COULD BE A PERSON’S BACKYARD. LIKE YEA A LITTLE DUSTY MAYBE THERE WAS A SANDSTORM BUT THAT’S COOL I’M JUST GONNA WALK DOWN TO THE STORE P S Y C H YOU’RE ON MARS BICH!
i hate to be rude and intrude on this post but we have decent pictures of the surface Venus too!
So it’s not quite snowing on Churyumov–Gerasimenko, unfortunately; the white specks are artifacts of cosmic rays impinging on the CCDs in the camera, as well as a rotating starfield in the background (since the comet is spinning). A few specks could be dust. But, holy shit, that’s the surface of a comet. That’s a spot you could in theory cling to for dear life sit down on. The Cliffs of Comet 76pare a place.
If that isn’t the neatest shit I don’t know what is.
HAATEEEE hate actually. that overweight is considered a more pc nice term than fat. like i need the word fat to become destigmatized right now because im tired of people talking circles around trying to say chubby or big or plus size as catchalls because fat is a fine word. its fine. i know its been deemed derogatory by our culture but thats because being fat is deemed bad anyways but i think its a better word than calling people overweight like over what weight hm? what weight are you saying they are over. normal?? fuck you
I’m actually so relieved holy shit. The thought of losing her had been weighing on my mind so hard for so many months now. I’m so glad she’s okay. Oh my god
Hey y'all, money’s still a major struggle for me as I’m currently jobless and income is very infrequent, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
No goal or anything. I would just like to. survive. bare minimum. bleh.
I’d really much prefer to just have a job but. I’ve applied to hundreds at this point for like 3 years now and i’ve only gotten 3 interviews, last one was last summer. Isn’t that kinda fucked. How is this whole “getting my first job” thing even supposed to work.
