its not funny but i do think about it a lot

[dikdikpronouncedxylophone]

This made me think about this panel from Calvin and Hobbes:

But unlike the adult in this strip, Calvin’s dad actually APOLOGIZED for yelling at him when he saw how guilty his kid was:

Paid service with no ads: Well, if they're not funding it with ad revenue, they need to charge us something.

Paid service with ads: Well that's bullshit.

"We used to be a paid service without ads, but now we're putting ads in it! If you want the ad-free version you have to pay more for preeeeemium": Fuck you fuck you fuck you

If you can't make a ghost child the old fashioned way, store-bought (cloning) is fine.

does ringo starr still have the elf stones or did he return them to the silverwood? i know there was a pressure campaign a few years back

[beemovieerotica]

obligatory I'm Not An Elf but the pressure campaign always struck me as well-intentioned but misguided - like at a certain point it veered somewhat into an overzealous application of cultural appropriation without recognizing the context in which he came into possession of the elf stones. *generally* if I come across a human with an elven artifact then I'm side-eyeing that shit hard, but Ringo was very deliberately gifted the elf stones in a gesture of goodwill and cultural exchange (plus gratitude for everything he did!!!). I know 2016 was a different time altogether but idk I think about that a lot.

i can't do secret hidden lore or leave things up to imagination because i like showing people things too much . i'm like check it out do you like my story here's every single thing that has ever happened in it . i'm too excited for tacit implications i like to show off my characters like someone shows off their pet kitty that they put a cute hat on

[thoodleoo]

reading about the participation of children in rituals as a form of play in ancient greece and came across an incredibly charming story from julius pollux's onomasticon where a flood prevented the adults from reaching a sanctuary to sacrifice a ram to heracles, and the children solved the problem by....sticking a bunch of sticks in an apple to give it "legs" and "horns" and offering it as a sacrifice instead. it's such a charming thought and i can perfectly picture kids these days also pretending at sacrificing an apple "goat" at recess

Ohhhh caesar zeppeli you done this again to my wine glasses

[toskarin]

I love when an artist does something as a joke but then obviously thinks about it until they trick themselves into being into it. like haha I drew them in the green alien au where they're both green aliens who say gleepblorp [three days later] I drew another green alien picture

IM SO TIRED OF SO MANY THINGS ABOUT DISABILITY BEING IN PRIMARY COLORS & CUTE BUBBLE TEXT

IM SO TIRED OF CAPTIONS AUTO-CENSORING CURSES & VIDEO CREATORS TRYING TO CIRCUMVENT THE ALGORITHM BY LEAVING PEOPLE OUT OF WHAT THEYRE ACTUALLY SAYING

IM SO TIRED OF FORCED BEDTIMES IN CARE HOMES & FORCED CELIBACY & SOBERNESS BY CAREGIVERS

WE ARE NOT CHILDREN . WE ARE ADULTS . WE CUSS AND FUCK AND DRINK AND DO DRUGS AND WE LIKE ADULT THINGS . HORROR MOVIES AND BOOKS AND SHOWS ABOUT SEX AND VIOLENCE . TREAT US LIKE ADULTS OR I'LL CUT YOU

[merrikiwi]

Btw i discovered recently that youtube subtitles censoring swears is based on the creators side of things.

It is turned on by default and id really like it to become more common for youtubers to turn it off. Its a fairly burried setting.

But i think a lot more creators should turn it off because of the above reasons. But also i think its an assumed default so people dont think to check if they have any control over it (myself included)

[peony-pearl]

THIS IS AN OC CHECKPOINT

[peony-pearl]

[sabrebash]

Is That Allowed

[redstonedust]

i appreciate when websites have a spectrum of blocking options. i hate when the only choice is to hard block op like sometimes you need the option to mute or block a specific post. absolutely no beef with the person who made the post you just put an image of a large spider on my dash 400 times and i dont want to see that please thank you.
