When I say “free water, free food, free shelter, free healthcare, free education for everyone” in that “everyone” I even include the people I hate. Too many people get surprised at the idea that I do wish for the people I hate to have better lives.
When I say EVERYONE, I mean EVERYONE. These are things ALL people should have. If you reblog this saying “except THIS group” then you’ve missed the point entirely.
i want to remove the boots from necks altogether, not just be the one to put on the boot.
Don’t know about OP, but when I say it, this is not selflessness! It’s not selflessness at all. There are still people I would prefer get fucked over! There are really awful shitty people in the world!
But I understand that the tables always turn. ALWAYS. There is no final glorious revolution where The Right People will be in charge forever. The only way to ensure the boot will never be on your neck again is to throw away the fucking boot. Set the table so you eat well no matter which way it turns!
ALL OF THIS.
Leave no one behind. We all deserve food, clean water, clean air, healthcare, housing, electricity, internet, and so forth. No matter who you are, you deserve to be able to access and have what you need to survive.
So yes, yes, yes to “throw away the fucking boot.”
gamecube was the best designed controller of all time exclusively for the button cluster that gave you easy thumb roll access to all buttons but also gave you the a button as a thumb rest (because it’s the one you press the most) and took into account the frequency with which each button gets pressed in its design rather than doing the stupid diamond design that gives no button priority and rests your thumb in the shitty blank space between buttons
The Diamond Button Layout Is The Bleeding Stump Where Form Cut Function’s Head Off
BTW i was wrong about this but in a cool way where it reveals somthing. gamecube controller was best Because it was on gamecube, because it could only be used for gamecube games that in turn could ideally rely on and take advantage of its unique layout and the design assumptions made by it. for a game where you really do press a the most and all the other shit i said the gamecube layout is best, BUT as consoles became less and less distinct from each other and games werent necessarily made for a specific console a standardized layout became necessary and good and while i still believe the button diamond is never gonna feel good as the gamecube cluster within its context, claiming that it was a matter of form over function was wrong of me because like. its not. this post has been an albatross around my neck ever since i realized i was wrong so i periodically come in and refine my understanding of why i was wrong as like a pain ritual/attempt to mitigate how stupid i look online
I’ve posted this before, but I will never be over it.
truth to this- i worked with a longtime director of law and order and he told me the guy who wrote the theme was an eccentric who made an obscene amount of money off that sound alone and is lesser known as the clarinetist from sonny and cher’s “i got you babe”
I’m going to add to this with advice for any teacher running into this situation.
Ask to borrow the kid’s computer for a second, and use the AI. Pick a word, then pick a letter that is not in that word. Ask chatGPT how many times that letter appears in said word. (Avoid “how many Ns in Mayonnaise” because that went viral and got trained out.) Hell, give ChatGPT multiple tries. Ask it to demonstrate each time that letter appears in a word.
Let the entire class witness chatGPT fail. Because it cannot count. It cannot spell. It cannot think. Please put your lesson plans aside for a class and use it as a learning opportunity.
To add to your arsenal for educating these kids, please look into the concept of AI hallucination. AI cannot perceive things and has no ability to think critically, which means it cannot tell what’s real and what’s not. Really drill into these kids that they are better off asking advice from a toddler.
I used the characterAI bot instead of chatGPT in this case, but chatGPT has the same issues, because neither bot is capable of thinking about what it’s saying.
Cause we can hear all of your internal monologues that even you don’t listen to, and we chatter hysterically to drown out the noise of your hatred for us (plus feeling everybody else’s feelings for them all the time is like doing emotional speedballs). We can’t help it, so just shut up and hate us like you always do since we can hear your thoughts anyway (you have that nose ring ‘cause your mother didn’t love you, but we love you, we have to)
when a mutual posts a poll you know nothing about, but they say “orangutan johnson my beloved, orangutan johnson sweep!!!!” you vote for orangutan johhnson. it’s called loyalty.
thinking about that german tik tok I saw that was like “maybe ai can do my job, but can ai replicate my Arbeitszeitbetrug? No that’s real craftsmanship”
Excited to announce my new feature film adapting Homer’s Odyssey, an action packed mythological epic following famed hero Odysseus on his 10 year long journey home, starring Chris Pratt as Odysseus
it’s so funny to me when I talk about being trans to a cis person and they go “man, I wish I could change my name… i always liked the name [whatever] for myself.” like. you know that you can change your name as a cis person, right? you’re an adult, you can legally change your name to literally whatever. or you can just ask people to call you by a different name if you can’t afford the new name ID/passport bureaucracy shit, or if you’re a minor. you can do it, I believe in you.
In the N64 era, “Big Head Mode” was invented (or at least popularized) and there were several games that implemented it as a cheat code or unlockable setting.
But since then, thousand if not millions of games have been released, and the vast majority of them have not included this feature, despite it being easy to implement in a 3D engine, especially with the advent of skeletal animation.
I’m tempted to start a new patreon where I just release patches for games to have Big Head Mode re-added. With the commonality of Unity and Unity Marketplace assets, a large number of games could be trivially big-headed all at once!
I forgot to mention that the point of the patron was to be so people could vote on the next game to be big-headed.
Ppl who wanna change their name but don’t know what name they wanna change it to or don’t know what sounds good/suits them or whatever should be able to get paired with a girl who has 5,000 hours logged on the Sims. Like going to see an ancient oracle or something.
“save me, substance abuse!” i cry. before you can moralize to me about the dangers of addiction, a noble and powerful steed gallops into the room - my horse whom i have named “substance abuse”. you learn an important lesson about making assumptions. i snort a line off its back
this reminds me of me and my friend’s horse named Drugs
when i was in middle school me and my friends had a small yellow horse eraser we fondly named “drugs”. this lead to a lot of middle school tomfoolery around his name and saying shit like “Ma’am, so and so took drugs from me” and other dumb shit like that.
eventually, our english teacher, Mr. R, caught onto the joke. instead of writing us up or sending us to the principal though, he played along, making similar jokes like “(name), stop taking drugs.” “hey. you three. you need to share drugs if he’s going to be at the table.” “no drugs today, guys?” so on and so forth.
by the end of the school year it had become a very fond joke between us and this english teacher, so we decided since we were moving onto our freshman year, we decided to give our eng teacher this little yellow horse eraser.
so we go find our english teacher, Mr. R, who was setting up cornhole with our principal and other “big important people” for our 8th grade graduation party, and we hand him the little eraser.
to which he yells as loudly (and happily) as he can: “YOURE GIVING ME DRUGS?!!”
i actually went back to visit him before i left for college, and to this day he still has Drugs on his desk, and regularly tells his new students about me and my friends. ty op for reminding me about Drugs the Horse
ooc - Make sure to send whatever you want before the 22nd of December(or 23rd.) I’m planning to temporarily turn them off maybe until January? or at least until the 26th because of the raid theyre apparently planning. Media asks are off again. I dont want to risk anything, and I highly suggest you dont send links. I wont reply
If you’re a roleplay blog too, please do this. Please turn your asks off. They are planning to send potentially gore of real people, specifically children. Take care of yourselves please, you are your #1 priority, nothing and nobody else.
edit
this is where im going off of (below) i dont know how the asker got a screenshot of this at all but id much rather everyone try to be safe rather than sorry and involved in all of this, theyre committing actual crimes & exposing people to this stuff can be seriously damaging so please if youre a mw roleplay account or something similar, the bare minimum you can do is turn your media asks off if you dont want to turn asks in general off. im not very good with tumblr so i dont know if you can turn comments off but they did comment slurs on my posts before and probably others? so if any of you see some really awful shit being said or links on a mw account ignore it. dont give it the light of day
I’m glad this has reached as many people as it has.
I also looked into the asker and they said they know someone who is spying on the Soviet Extremist servers, thats how they got this information. If the raid does not happen I’m going to be skeptical. I don’t know the person they got this info off of personally I dont know the asker from the post. I can’t say for certain if this is real or not but for everyones sake im hoping its not.
THIS IS NOT JUST HAPPENING TO THE MW COMMUNITY!! Its others ive heard and i dont remember the fandom names.
I’d be careful just incase. Please remember to be safe, I dont think the raid will last just one day, so if you want to be extra careful keep your media asks off for an extra day or more if you wish!! Genuinely, be as careful as you can, I cant confirm anything but i want people to be aware of the bullshit before its too late
Thank you for spreading this !! this means everything to me. If you know any rp blogs at least alert them of this situation just to be careful incase they don’t know.
Other things the Soviet Extremists have done do my knowledge & things to be careful of under cut (HUGE TW FOR GORE MENTIONS SA SUICIDE MURDER ETC)
shit man tomorrow is christmas eve i swear yesterday was June 2010
As is tradition in tumblr culture the locals unearth the corpse of a long deceased figure and drag it across the streets merrily, laughing at what is preserved of the person’s words. This custom, seen as morbid in other cultures, is instead done gleefully and with an unmatched enthusiasm
despite what popular opinion may lead you to believe, some rocks actually do have scientifically-proven auras! Unfortunately, those rocks are uranium and the aura is cancer.
Though rock auras are rare, rock magic is common. The most common form of rock magic is Concussion.
Which way to the wizard duel? Bifurcated wands are the best for casting rock magic.
i’m working on a more consistent sticker style, i’ve been procrastinating on this for a while. Here’s 2 attempts. The second one has a little less drop shadow (a bit bitter that way) and less shadow on the ear fluff, but minimal shading is ideal overall, same with the palette. I’ll release this pack once i get it pretty stacked up (at least 12 but i’m planning around 24 or more)
Thinking about that time Joseph Smith held a conference where he was supposed to perform miracles and then his miracles straight up didn’t work
If you’ve never been Mormon like how I’ve never been Mormon you might not know how much Mormons put their faith in like. What they see as facts. Things that they think are provable real facts. Because they think they’re the only real church so obviously they’ve gotta have facts. The facts have to be on their side.
So that’s why a Mormon learning about that time Joseph Smith told a dead body to get up and walk and it didn’t and it kept being dead might shatter their entire worldview. To non-religious folk or religious folk like me who recognize our own religions have contradictions in them and are fine with that, that first Mormon conference sort of feels mildly funny almost 200 years removed from it but to a devout Mormon that’s really a strange thing to learn about. Apparently for some people learning about the full facts of the life of Joseph Smith is what causes them to leave the faith.
To me and anyone else who isn’t Mormon it seems pretty clear he was a conman that wanted an excuse to force himself upon teenagers and the early Mormons forced themselves upon communities with no warning and really bothered them and that was the main factor behind a lot of the attacks they endured in those early years. And you know, religions have been founded off of less. You could over time forge yourself something decent out of that while recognizing the flawed place you came from. A religion doesn’t necessarily always have to be restrained by how it was founded.
But what I’ve learned recently is that Mormons that are really deep in the sauce need to believe that everything they’ve ever learned about Joseph Smith is fact. The Book of Mormon can’t just be a nice story that isn’t real in a literal sense but can be meaningful spiritually like how to me as a science believing Lutheran genesis is just a nice story that can still have spiritual significance. It’s gotta be real. Everything has to be real in a literal sense.
There’s no dna or archeological evidence that anything in the Book of Mormon is real though and Joseph Smith did by most accounts tell a dead body to get up and it didn’t. That little child stayed dead and many people left his church because of it.
Does this mean Joseph Smith wasn’t a prophet? I mean I don’t think he was but I’m not Mormon. Never have been, never plan on being one. Many rational people might hear about him being a conman and still think he was a prophet anyways. God works in mysterious ways after all. Others will have their entire worldview brought into question upon learning that.
Anyways, dude also reportedly told a man’s broken hand to work again and then it didn’t. Like two dozen people left after that fiasco.
Also also Joseph Smith really did “translate” the Book of Mormon by sticking his whole face in a hat and dictating what he said he saw in the hat. You may have seen depictions where he’s reading off the golden tablets behind a curtain or something but no. No. That’s not historically accurate. Dude stuck his face directly in a hat. Everybody who transcribed for him said that’s how he did it. Face in hat.
