the thing is that childhood doesn’t just end when you turn 18 or when you turn 21. it’s going to end dozens of times over. your childhood pet will die. actors you loved in movies you watched as a kid will die. your grandparents will die, and then your parents will die. it’s going to end dozens and dozens of times and all you can do is let it. all you can do is stand in the middle of the grocery store and stare at freezers full of microwave pizza because you’ve suddenly been seized by the memory of what it felt like to have a pizza party on the last day of school before summer break. which is another ending in and of itself
lots of really funny little ways that companies try to reduce the liability of an emoji being synonymous with death threats, but my favourite attempt on a conceptual level has been google putting magical sparkles on the dagger
they got scared in 2018 and have been slowly adjusting since
Silly Google. They’re only giving the dagger higher level enchantments. I hear in Android 16 they’re giving it Mend Buttcrack
There’s certain types of stories that are quite compelling but because of the way society at large often handles them they are rarely told well and when they are told well people still have a knee-jerk reaction to them.
I’m sorry but this photo got me emotional - this moment could have been from any time in the last 500 or more years and not a thing about the composition would have changed. Certainly, for hundreds of years, monks have worked in these gardens and stopped to pet animals in need of scritches. A monk 300 years ago dressed in this same style in these same gardens probably stopped to pet the ancestor of that cat. The only difference between now and then is that this time there was a camera. If you went to any monastery or temple in the world you could find similar scenes playing out.
People stop to pet cats and it has me emotional.
This should be a statue. We need more statues showing kindness and companionship to cats.
whenever someone calls USAmerican English the ‘movie accent’ I remember how somewhere last year I was on a train when suddenly the silence was broken by an american voice behind me somewhere and I immediately thought “Oh no, someones playing their tiktoks out loud again” and automatically turned around to put a face to my annoyance like you do when someones driving bad, and turns out a few rows down were just some actual in the flesh USAmericans having a nice conversation amongst themselves. I am sorry Americans I’m glad they let you out of the phone
forever impressed by people who when they’re hyperfixating on a media or character come up with complex headcanons and analysis and make up scenarios with them. all my brain does is this for days on end
you pass by me on ur dash. I am doing a little dance, but with a look of pensive introspection on my face. I do not seem to notice you. you may continue on your way or join me in my thoughtful dance.
my little brother got a girlfriend recently and the two of them have been making their discord icons matching anime couples, so my other brother, his twin, keeps changing his icon to a third wheel character to annoy them
Also honestly I feel like I’ve been on a really good run with my art over the last month and a half or so. Since around Valentines Day almost all of the pieces I’ve made I’ve been really happy with in one way or another
Here’s a selection of pieces I’m rlly happy with from over the last two months or so bc I’m feeling good abt my art at the moment :3
it’s fine actually. don’t forget to make a symlink after you change your home directory in case something uses an absolute path and you’re good. also for some reason KDE forgot all my saved networks but that’s fine
wow lmao DO NOT find and replace “/home/deadname/” to “/home/name/” with sed automatically on your entire home directory.
“but i don’t care i have a symlink” no.
KDE is fucked. can’t open a file explorer anymore. Firefox is behaving very strangely.
i’m gonna have to reinstall my OS 🥳
#you could have created a new user and put your old stuff in a shared folder #but alas
I need to break my system for clout and to have an excuse to install Linux again
aaugh i hate citing sources *excruciatingly loud sounds of tearing metal combined with tortured human screams and fleshy hitting noises* ok that wasn’t so bad actually..
hey guys. whats happening on my post
[Image description: There are five images, all screenshots of tags and replies on this post. The first is tags in all caps that read, “prev tags?! are you okay?” The second image is the prev tags mentioned, and reads, “me watching two hours worth of cars 3 interviews with brian fee so i can find a concrete source for lightning mcqueens age. btw on that note there’s canonically a 20 year age gap between mcqueen and mater. in the first movie mcqueen is 29 and mater is 49. stan materfred its less problematic.” The third image is tags in response to the previous image that read, “prev what. what. mater is. 49?? he’s what?? he. was older than my dad when i first watched the movie? what??” The fourth image is tags in response again, and it reads, “prev in the credits of cars 2 we see maters passport including his DOB. his birthday is the same as john lasseters. 12 jan 1957. as i write this in 2022 john lasseter is 65. thus. mater is a gilf.” The fifth image is a reply that reads, “mater is a gilf.” End description]
[Image ID: It is a wojak meme, showing a man, who has the Wojak face, standing in the corner of a party, while smiling couples dance around him. Above the Couples’ heads text reads, “Mater’s 49????” And “Gilf Mater.” Above the Wojak man’s head, Text reads, “They don’t know Materfred is the ship name for Mater and Manfred Von Karma” END ID]
[Image ID: A screenshot of a google search of “Manfred Von Karma”, showing he’s a white haired kinda “has fun being evil” looking man, the first result being his Ace Attorney wiki page. Hes a prosecutor. END ID]
microsoft hit this guy with the mind control ray in the middle of writing this comment
[image description: A reddit post that reads: I can’t possibly begin to fathom the ignorance that these people who “don’t see the connection”. There are clear antismeitic undertones when it comes to the design of villagers. They all have big noses that look like the typical Jewish caricature, they all are depicted as money hungry traders (their eyes are literally the same color as the money that they fiend for), they have golems that protect their villages which is a clear reference to Jewish folklore of rabbis who would create golems to protect their communities. All of these things I could see as just being a funny nod to Jewish folklore, but there is one thing that clearly sets the intention to harmful rather than funny. The fact they they are clearly viewed as a whole other separate creature that is beneath the player. They are viewed as sub-human and primitive. Notch is a known racist and anti-semite so I’m not really surprised. Since he gave up ownership though, villagers have become a staple of our childhoods and aren’t harmful at all. They are an iconic part of Minecraft and the fact that we can derive so much joy and togetherness from playing this incredibly wholesome game together goes to show that we as a community have left behind notch’s hateful views and created a beautiful community in spite of it. I think villagers shouldn’t be changed becausethat’s letting notch win. The fact that we as a community enjoy the game and treat villagers as a fun quirk of the game is proof of our victory over these hateful ideas. Keep having fun everyone. end description]
was gonna make a post about The Character but then i looked at my dash for 5 seconds and it would appear that everyone is also having the same experience so
I don’t know how we’re letting trump get away with all this shit when I truly believe that if you threw a blanket over his head he would think it was nighttime and go to sleep like a bird
experiencing the minecraft movie only as a red carpet event for minecraft youtubers is very funny. i will not watch your bad ugly movie but im a big fan of images of internet celebrities hanging out in fancy outfits
you ask a student in april how they’re doing and they’ll say “oh i’m fine” but in reality they are treating themselves in such a way that violates the geneva convention on treatment of prisoners
every day i think about how wild vaporeon would live mostly in the water but come to shore to have their pups (eevee), and then would probably groom their pups in a special way to trap air bubbles in their soft fur to make them more bouyant so they can float unaided on the water. and then as soon as the eevee have control of their little legs they’re being taught how to swim, so you could come to a lake at a certain time of year ans see a vaporeon swimming around with a tiny soaked eevee paddling along behind it like
it fucking sucks being a disabled person who can’t work and having to see these fuckass posts where someone’s like “ahaha jobless people have no life and that’s why everyone shitty online has No Job” and everyone and their mother reblogs it joyfully onto my dash for me to see. yes unemployed and unemployable people are truly without exception dogshit people with no hobbies and no redeeming qualities. you’re so right. anyway if you’ll excuse me i have to start my shift at the I’ll Never Be Employed Because Of Permanent Disability And I Love Knowing How You Really See Me store
if ur able to work can u reblog this i am seriously SO sick of it.
btw this isn’t solely a disability rights issue or an issue about people who are entirely unable to work. you should also be thinking about the people who are regarded as unhireable. transfems are hugely discriminated against in this way, people of color are passed over for less qualified white people, anyone who has any difficulty playing the interview game is less hireable… frankly anyone who made the mistake of pursuing the things they love and now has a degree for a niche field. if you still joke about Jobless People it’s because you’ve fundamentally connected the worth of people to their labor, and specific labor, work that you see as valuable. and while i’m at it stop making fun of people who still live with their parents. asshole.
i go to the shop and I ask if they have any raspberries. they say no, they used to sell raspberries, but they haven’t had any in stock in the last 15 years. I ask if there’s somewhere else I can go to buy raspberries. They say no, with confidence and pride, they’re the only shop around who has ever sold or will ever sell raspberries. Other shops might sell other fruit, sure, but they have a monopoly on all raspberries forever. I ask if they’re possibly planning on them selling them again in future? they say they can’t tell me that.
on the way home, I encounter someone eating raspberries. I ask and they tell me that they grow their own, they got some seeds from the shop back in The Raspberry Days and kept them. They take me to a field of many beautiful raspberry plants and invite me to pick my own, they’re free for all the town to pick whenever they’d like.
someone comes up behind us. It’s the shop manager, President of Nintendo Shuntaro Furukawa. he hatefully throws a bob-omb that blows up and kills both of us instantly for stealing 200 trillion dollars worth of potential Raspberry Shop That Doesn’t Do Raspberries Anymore profits that they weren’t making and then he turns around to the camera with a big thumbs up and says don’t do piracy or something ok please
Music is just cope for people who can’t generate emotions on their own
Some of y'all really need to go outside. To think it’s somehow “not ok” to listen to music is the craziest shit I’ve heard all week
it literally isn’t okay to listen to music. that’s someone else’s emotions and it’s both embarrassing and ideological theft to use them instead of your own.
