hi! i'm biscuit, I'm a 50 year old queer dude. that parking lot your car is in used to be my parents house and for 20 bucks I won't tell you all about it in detail

[void-drifter]

it’s cheaper to buy vegetables here

[sparkytheandroid]

life feels exactly like this now

[toskarinfr]

must feel good as fuck to curse a prince for being rude to you while you were larping as an old woman for no reason

being black in any art community is such a strange feeling cause you’ll see just blatant racism being expressed in others art and you have to just casually ignore it, for your sake if anything, colorism being something that’s just fundamentally there in every artist and you deal with it cause it’s not worth it in the end to even think of it too hard let alone even mentioning it, it’s definitely something

Hello nonblack reader of this post, I think you ought to share this one so that you and your peers can actively remind yourselves 1) of how your Black peers feel when you tolerate antiblack racism in your art spaces for entertainment and 2) that we notice it, but don't believe it is secure around enough of you to bring it up 🙏🏾

My mom is a psychologist. A phenomena that is very well documented is "silence as consent". If you do not ever speak up about something, people are neurologically programmed to understand you approve of it. So this is not "oh why are you assuming I didn't notice it's problematic" or "wow why aren't you giving me the benefit of the doubt?" This is the brain's pattern recognition. "Oh it's not that serious" it very much demonstrably, provably is.

So instead of becoming defensive or wanting black people to shut off a basic part of their brains, you can solve this by not tolerating antiblack racism.

Really hate how "yeah you should care about what the other person is saying and try to engage with it even if it doesn't perfectly align with your interests" is a controversial idea. "Oh but I don't want to fake interest" i assume most people's brains are capable of generating spontaneous curiosity if they try so it doesn't need to be fake

[biscuit-tornado]

idk if i feel the need to commemorate a rich dipshit getting richer. you can have a trillion dollars and it won't be enough to buy a personality or respect

The European Union already forced Apple to abandon its proprietary charging port and adopt USB-C across its entire iPhone lineup. It just did something bigger. A new EU mandate requires every smartphone sold in Europe including Apple devices to feature a battery that can be replaced by the user without specialist tools, without voiding a warranty, and without sending the device to a manufacturer approved service center. Batteries must maintain a minimum capacity threshold after a set number of charge cycles and replacement parts must remain available for up to ten years after a model goes on sale.

The consumer electronics industry built its current business model around batteries that degrade, cannot be replaced at home, and create a natural upgrade cycle every two to three years. The EU just legislated that model out of existence in the world's largest regulatory market.

Apple, Samsung, and every other manufacturer now faces a choice between redesigning their devices for the European market or accepting that their current hardware architecture is no longer legally sellable there.

Given that no company walks away from European consumers voluntarily the phones are going to change and once they change for Europe the rest of the world will ask why theirs still do not.

normal people in SF are fucking sick of every billboard being for AI slop

[error-404-fuck-not-found]

takes a real artist to go "i have to deface this billboard promoting an evil corporation's evil product. but crucially☝️the typeface and kerning must match or else it's cringe"

[ignescent]

If you make it look official, people will leave it up. I knew someone who replaced all the motivational posters at work with 'demotivation' versions and corp didnt notice for like 2 years.

we saw Weapons yesterday and idk if I'll be getting that one outta my head anytime soon

[biscuit-tornado]

possible spoilers after the cut

what's weird is i just started writing a short story about blood magic that morning, when i thought the core antagonist of Weapons was like a demon or something because I hadn't even read about it

Excerpt from "The Story of Astrogoblin" wherein Dwight "The General" Manfredi explains to nascent goblins how the legacy of Rooster Teeth will work in their favor, and hands down some key references that will become channel staples (Hannibal, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Ewoks).

he's so wretched

[byjove]

guy at an art museum standing in front of a completely innocuous and somewhat boring painting muttering “what does it mean? what does it all mean?” in an increasingly distressed tone

[byjove]

you hear him say “I don’t understand it, I can’t understand it” as he stumbles away from a very plain still life painting of wine and fruit with his head in his hands

[what-even-is-thiss]

“Well you wouldn’t be discriminated against if you just hid everything about who you are from everyone”

Hey. Hey. Listen. Come close. Closer. Yeah. Listen.
