@an0nymz In response to your tags, this was a cord used to hook up a PlayStation or PlayStation 2, with RCA heads on one end, and that rectangular head on the other end. It could also be used with a PS3, but PS3 also had an HDMI output, so most people used that.

[an0nymz]

That is cool! I only ever had Playstation 3 and 4, so no wonder I’ve never seen that before!

I’d show you the whole cable, but I’ve got things set up in a pretty specific way, and dissembling it would be a pain…

me: /has a minor breakdown over inconsequential things

me: haha no im fine

[theaustinstollhaus]

When people go off about how English is the worst language, I just wanna point out a few things:

- Our future tense requires only one word (looking at you, Spanish)

- Words don’t change meanings depending on tone (Cantonese)

- We don’t live in some bizarre Beauty And The Beast world where we give inanimate objects genders (romance languages, German)

- Likewise, we don’t have have two different words for “they” because we don’t care whether “they” were male or female (Spanish, French)

- There’s no formal “you” because we don’t play mind games about whether or not we respect you (Spanish, German)

- We don’t alter the whole fucking language based on how much we respect you (Japanese)

- The letters and sounds might not be consistent, but at least we have letters, not just pictures (Mandarin)

- We don’t have a fucking stupid tense specifically for talking to two people because some idiot decided that a two-person tense was necessary (Arabic)

So yeah, I think we’re doing okay as a language

[theaustinstollhaus]

Oh and some of our plurals are irregular, but at least it’s not like every goddamn plural is an entirely new word so you have to learn every word twice

At least it’s not like that, right? Right, Arabic? WHAT A DUMB IDEA THAT WOULD BE, HUH, ARABIC?

[i-am-corbin-dallas]

But we do kinda have the tone thing. Like record and record, resume and resume, etc

[theaustinstollhaus]

For a few words, but you can mispronounce a lot and still get away with it. I’m referring to this:

So I went to her YouTube channel cuz I was like “yo I want some more funny robot videos.

Turns out:

Her latest update on twitter just came out less than a day ago:

Hopefully, her recovery goes well.

On a lighter note, when she discussed the possibility of going blind in one eye as a result of the surgery she got a comment:
