sometimes white people are like 'can you speak aboriginal?' and im like I can call you white in six different aboriginal languages☺️

[alwayswasalwayswillbeourland]

People forget that theres over 250 spoken Aboriginal languages and it's not including aae, kriol, or Torres Strait Island languages.

and many languages such as my great grandmothers tongue is dead with the last native speakers passing away.

[alwayswasalwayswillbeourland]

I can speak Aboriginal but not in the way a person might learn a second language, such as french.

I speak Aboriginal english first, I know certain Aboriginal words for certain things.

I know how to say crocodile in Larrakia, I know how to say brother in Yolngu

I can say goodbye in three different languages.

I live in QLD so the language and gestures are all Murri, and the north is different from the south. Sometimes the spelling for a word differs via location.

sometimes I sing songs in pitjantjatjara, maybe I don't know what they mean exactly but I understand the vibe.

sometimes I look up a word and its got a completely different meaning to one I knew growing up.

sometimes I look up a word and I can't find it anywhere. Sometimes there's no one left alive who could tell me the original meaning or how it changed over time.

sometimes Indigenous languages are more than a set of grammar rules.

alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.

we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

please rb for larger sample size!

Star Wars is truly at its peak when the droids are practical and semi-shitty looking which is honestly just to say that I get an instant boost of serotonin when a gonk droid shows up

Look at this thing it sucks and I love it

[ingdamnit]

I love that it’s purpose is somewhere between a battery and an extension cord

[bogleech]

A big heavy power supply that has legs and the simplest possible droid brain for knowing where it’s needed because that’s canonically cheaper and easier than making a big heavy battery you have to move around yourself

Ryan Gosling’s career has just been one long quest to climb the Warner Bros water tower

[notaplaceofhonour]

that man has been trying to climb this tower since he was 16. he has asked multiple times, and every time they said no, but now he’s famous enough & variety was able to convince them to do a shoot on the tower. it all led here. it was all for this.

[notaplaceofhonour]

I’m obsessed with the implication that this was a coming-of-age ritual where a boy becomes a man, like a bar mitzvah
