well maybe i don't wanna work in a fast-paced, flexible environment that requires great verbal communication skills
Emil is my "yup this is real wool" detector. It's only real wool that he goes this nuts over
Does anyone know what to do
getting inspired to create stuff is honestly the meaning of life. like i found a great story and now i wanna make a cool story too. literally could there be any better feeling
made a post about how I'm relieved and excited to be alive in 2026 and how I'm glad I exist in a time where music and education and communication are so expansive and accessible and said post wasn't even up for a single hour before someone started declaring that actually there are evil revolting breaches of human rights happening right now. not even an hour
I am asking with all the kindness I can muster to please let people tentatively express their hope for the future without needing to remind them that actually, sometimes life is terrible and horrific. I am aware. please trust me I am so aware. I am alive on planet earth. it is hard to not be aware. I just also want to enjoy being alive. I don't have to be constantly miserable in order to care about other people. jesus fucking christ
pros of being on testosterone: my kermit impression is getting better
cons of being on testosterone: my Mort from Madagascar impression is getting worse
peace and love on planet fucking earth
all i want for 2026 is that gigantic rancid AI bubble to finally burst in such a catastrophic way that the consequences will be so good and i'll never have to see another AI generated image ever again
Spin the wheel for your government assigned fursona*

Thoughts?
Hell yeah, this rules! I love it!
Not the best, but still really good!
It's okay, I guess. Could be worse.
I have no opinion one way or the other.
It's not great. I really don't care for it.
This sucks! I demand a respin!
NOOOOOOOO!!!
im not complaining because i expect you to fix anything im complaining to bond with you. omggggg find your hater spirit
Pokemon but I gave them IRL common names
Really wasn't expecting anyone but myself to find the "Pokemon with common names" thing funny, so here's part 2 electric boogaloo ft. non-Kanto 'mons
And finally: Arceus, the god of all creation? Don't be silly, that's just a
If you've ever thought to yourself "I basically know who this person is" about a stranger from reading their posts or watching their youtube videos, I guarantee you're wrong. Yes, even if you've been following them for a long time. Knock it off.
It's possible to know a fictional character purely from the little vignettes in a story because the author has intentionally structured those moments to show every relevant facet of the character. If you finish a story, and there were two scenes where the character was nice and one where they liked rollercoasters, then that's the character! They are nice and they like rollercoasters.
REAL PEOPLE DO NOT WORK LIKE THIS.
Real people posting on social media may appear somewhat similar to a fictional character being revealed scene by scene. DO NOT FALL FOR IT. You are not being shown a curated collection of carefully authored scenes that intentionally build up to a full character! You are seeing a random assortment of moments when the person felt like posting on social media, filtered through imprecise wording, missing context, whether the person slept well the night before, and who knows how many other factors. Real people are orders of magnitude more complicated than fictional characters because they are not designed to be easily understood by an audience! If you try to interpret social media posts as a found-footage story it will lead only to ruin!
I've been trying to reframe how I talk about content-producers to prevent myself from falling into this overly-familiar trap.
"That band? I haven't listened to all their music, but I like what I've heard. This song's my favorite."
"That actor? I enjoyed their performance in this movie and that TV show. Made me laugh AND cry. Good actor."
"YouTuber? I like their series on book-to-movie adaptations."
"Tumblr person? Yeah, I follow them because I like their posts on fashion history."
Being specific about WHAT you like makes for better conversations, and you don't fall into the "omg I LOVE them!" trap.
You're not putting someone on a pedestal, built up by your idea if them, so you're less likely to go knee-jerk-defensive if someone criticizes them. Keep some professional distance between you and "person you don't personally know but whose work you enjoy."
Happy birthday Mewtwo!
you cannot convince me illegal immigration is a real problem and I'm sick of pretending it is. yk when you were a kid and you got mad at your sibling for crossing an imaginary line that you drew in the car? that's what you're doing right now except you're actually killing people over it
welcome to the club asshole
it’s like a spot the difference game with you people
