what's the first movie you remember seeing in theaters? don't try and be all edgy and cool and say like tetsuo: the iron man. be honest.
Go!!
For me it was Aladdin. Land Before Time was the first movie I remember seeing.. to my knowledge. I watched it on VHS in school... But my grandma took me to see Aladdin for the first time in an actual movie theatre. Oh my god, it was magical.. no pun intended.
oh how i love thee, lego dragon classic...✨🌸🌠
This person wrote a manifesto I ain’t reading all that but this is literally the type of behavior im talking about the idea hobbies all cost money is so removed from reality if you have the time to pick up your phone and write 7 paragraphs on how im victimizing you with my offhanded post you have the time to watch a movie on YouTube with your very same phone instead come on now. How is you freaking out on the internet helping any of these issues
things that dont cost money: hiking, walking, birdwatching, identifying plants, drawing (you have a pen, reading (library), collecting rocks, dancing, singing.... etc wtc etc
if you cant find a hobby you can afford, thats a you problem. and if youre posting online, you have a device to do that, get some free games, trawl wikipedia, study something. stop picking fights online and do something else.
this shouldn't be hidden in the comments:

i'd like to add that the shadow color isnt necessarily dictated entirely by the primary light source, but the bounce light! so for the example of a sunny environment, the reason the shadows are blue are because of the light from the blue sky reflects across the environment; but, if the character were to be under tree cover, the bounce light would be coming from the leaves and thus the shadow would look greener.
Yee yee!!! You got it right on the nose!
Bounce light is something I didn't cover but I adore it!
Gotta work on my bounce light 💪
Yay for local color and color relativity! I love seeing artists continuing to share and learn from each other!

DuckDuckGo's new search feature comes as the internet is being flooded with AI-generated slop.
The filter relies on manually curated open-source blocklists, including the ‘nuclear’ list, provided by uBlockOrigin and uBlacklist Huge AI Blocklist,” DuckDuckGo said in a post on X. “While it won’t catch 100% of AI-generated results, it will greatly reduce the number of AI-generated images you see.
Left: AI filter is off Right: AI filter is on
Another tip for DDG - if you want to permanently get rid of DDG's AI features (which you can turn off in settings, but only temporarily) - for now you can just use noai.duckduckgo.com as your search engine. Works as advertised in the name.
Holly fucking shit yess! Searching reference is so painfull nowadays so this will help

Have you ever had a pet with a “human” name?
Have you ever had a pet with a “human” name?
Yes
No
Brittney. Brittney Beautiful, as I used to call her. She was a Lassie Collie—looked just like the TV dog—and she acted the part too. She watched over us like a second mother. If we were up past bedtime, she’d bark and gently herd us back to our rooms. When strangers came by, she’d place herself between them and us, alert and protective.
Years later, I was reminiscing with my dad, and he told me something that’s stuck with me ever since. "That was the best dog I ever owned," he said. "If you kids were out and about, and she was with you, I was never worried—no matter what the neighbors said."
She was a good dog. A loving, loyal, watchful dog. But she didn’t get the ending she deserved.
My grandfather didn’t like her. He thought her protective instincts made her dangerous. That her growls at strangers were aggression, not caution. Despite my father’s reassurance, despite everything Brittney had proven time and again, my grandfather made his own decision. He fed her wet food laced with glass.
She died because he thought he knew better.
It’s a horrible thing to say—but it’s the truth. People should know.
I still miss her.
Later in life, my son had two rats with human names: Marshall and Greg. They were heart pets—the kind you never forget. My in-laws didn’t care for them, but they knew better than to interfere. These rats were loved, respected, and safe.
Marshall passed first. He’d grown old, couldn’t groom himself anymore. I knew the night had come. I held him gently in my hands and stayed with him until he passed in his sleep.
Greg followed a few months later. He was slowing too, tripping over his own paws. That final night, he stayed in his hammock. When I came to say goodnight, he didn’t come to me—just gave a soft, sleepy rat ‘hello’ from where he lay.
My son asked if he could hold him. I told him no. “Just give him a pat and let him rest,” I said. “He’s tired.”
Greg died that night.
I’ve struggled with that choice. I wanted to honor Greg’s peace, his wish to be left in his safe little place. But I still wonder if I should’ve let my son hold him one last time. I respected Greg’s space. But I didn’t know it would be the last goodbye.
And maybe... maybe that was enough. Maybe letting him go in peace was the final kindness.
But still... I wonder.
I love the very idea of the paris catacombs like. yeah sure the real-life city of paris has a straight-up megadungeon sprawling under it. Why not.
There’s also bones.
“Well how much bones.” I can assure you a comical amount. You’d think I was joking amount. Dark Souls ass decoration amount
This is just like. A couple of pictures off google. i’ve been there. There’s piles of bones they haven’t been through.
Nobody in the notes mentioned this fact but i need to emphasize there is absolutely so much bones. There is a dungeon and it’s decorated like this. There’s bone piles and shit that hasn’t even been discovered. The mega dungeon is not only big it looks like that. They literally need to sort it out from the amount of bones. There are so many dead people beneath paris in a dark souls crypt.
Lotsa people in the notes of this post pointing out that Paris isn't unique in this regard and actually most cities have sprawling underground complexes under them (sewers, cisterns, railway systems, etc)
And like yeah but like. None of them look like a stereotypical evil dungeon in an RPG as the Paris catacombs. It's not just that it has a lot of tunnels under it it's that it has a lot of Dark Souls looking ass tunnels under it.
there’s this extremely kind soul of a woman on instagram that makes accessible recipes that don’t require standing, chopping, or a stove and she might just have a permanent place in my heart
She's on YouTube too! For non-Instagram using friends:
I love her, she's great. Her recipes are friendly for both physical and/or intellectual disabilities. And her 5-year-old helps her cook. 🥰

that’s a good one
Needle felted feline for a friend!
First time I used the glass cabochons to make the eyes and I'm obsessed already!
Okay, the colors are absolutely astounding! But also, LOOK AT THAT FACE. Like, perfection. Sleek, smooth, friendly and filled with joy and wonder. I wanna see a cartoon of this feline's adventures!
