and you know what? i am REALLY sick of these ads that are openly mocking people for being concerned about the products they’re selling.

Amazon’s super bowl ad where the Alexa mocks Chris Hemsworth for being worried about giving spy software control over his entire life. Waymo’s ad with the intro “the robots are coming!” mocking people who are rightfully extremely concerned about sharing the road with, or riding in, self-driving cars.

i don’t know, it’s just genuinely insane to me. “Oh, you have legitimate concerns about our shitty product? sounds like you’re just lame!!!” like what kind of “quiet part out loud” marketing is that?

Hey, queer teens and young adults, come closer to the fireside. I have important tidings for thee...

WE ARE ALL FAGGOTS IN THE EYES OF GREATER SOCIETY!!! YEAH, EVEN THE CHILLEST CHRISTIAN GAY GUY WHO LOOKS LIKE HIS NAME IS BRAD. EVEN THE LESBIAN OR ACE THAT DRESSES "NORMAL" AND HAS NO PIERCINGS OR DYED HAIR. FAGGOTS ONE AND ALL. FREAKS ONE AND ALL. SO STOP POLICING AND JUDGING EACH OTHER. THIS IS A RADICAL SPACE OF SUPPORT OR IT WON'T BE A SPACE AT ALL CAUSE IF THEY DON'T KILL US, THEY'LL KEEP CONVINCING US TO KILL EACH OTHER.

All for one and one for all.

Yes, even the freaks. Yes, even the perverts who do fucked up shit that terrifies you. Yes, even the pearl clutchers. Yes, yes, yes, ALL OF THEM. ALL OF US.

Or there will be none of us left to defend each other against the real freaks: capitalists.

So get your heads in the game, get out from under the Pink Triangle, and unlearn that sense of judgment altogether. Or we're doomed.

More game devs need to understand the following concepts:

There is a finite amount of memory on any given device.

No matter how good your game is, players will want memory for other things on their devices.

Not everyone has a stable internet connection so making single player games needing an internet connection is not good.

4. The price of memory has more than quadrupled in the past six months

You ever think about how often you hear someone say "there's no such thing as natural talent! Anyone can be taught" and you want to believe that they mean "with the right method and accommodations, anyone can be taught this", but time and time again you learn that they meant "I don't believe in learning disabilities or accommodations, anyone whom I can't teach simply doesn't want to learn."

Well well well, how the tables turns...

The sign many left wingers have subconsciously accepted moving right on covid and embraced lowering public health standards is when people seem to think “masks should be mandatory in healthcare settings /airplanes “ is somehow a radical position to take in an ongoing pandemic

[jupiterroxx]

its so fucking weird because "masks in healthcare" should be the default all of the time. Doctors and nurses are literally employed to go from sick person to sick person, treating immunocompromised people especially often.

It should have been mandatory BEFORE covid

getting older can be so amazing? you get more familiar with yourself. learn tips & tricks for troubleshooting your own brain. trial & error helps you build routines that minimize discomfort, maximize reward. your preferences/interests don't get set in stone, but you do find out which ones are going to stay with you in the long-term, and which ones are fun but transient joys to appreciate in the moment.

you learn that the world is so much more complex than you were taught, and that that's okay, and that there's an endless supply of things you can learn or watch or experience or think about if you want to. if you're lucky, you loosen up, stop putting so much pressure on yourself. if you're lucky, you learn to recognize that negative inner voice, and whack it with a baseball bat until it hushes up. if you're lucky, you learn to treat yourself gently, not because you are fragile but because you are worthy of gentleness. (i hope you are lucky.)

and some things will change. some things will get better. some things will get good. and maybe you start to recover from the dehumanizing stress of childhood/education. maybe you learn the power of your own autonomy. maybe you learn how to walk away from bad situations (which is a superpower even if you don't realize it yet). and you get to choose your own clothes. and your own food. and which relationships to pursue! and what you do with your free time. and with your life (but don't worry you get to choose that gradually). and that's crazy! and sometimes scary. and extraordinarily, indescribably precious.

bitches needed to hear this huh ♥ (you're bitches)

look both ways ↔️

[txttletale]

a lot of ridiculous hypocrisy could be avoided if people were more comfortable admitting that a funny retort or dunk is not necessarily morally correct. like very often someone will say something very funny that was also like, a bad thing to say and so many people make themselves look very foolish thinking they have to reconcile that

Do you have any phm fanfic recs?

I really liked name your faith by liarielle ! It’s queer platonic stratt and grace where they’re soulmates and an older version of ryland guides eva during the time before the hail mary launch. It’s short and sweet!
