awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?
i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users
would be remiss not to mention that the rainbow notably straight up just removed the trans flag colors from it. like they’re gone. it’s the progress flag minus the trans flag colors.
that’s not the whole flag, now is it
hey staff what the fuck
hey staff don't you think you're being too on-the-nose
HEY STAFF DONT YOU THINK YOU'RE BEING TOO ON-THE-NOSE
i've been phasing the phrase 'google it' out of my vocabulary and going back to 'look it up'. fuck you youve lost your generic trademark privileges
I feel like I need to share this because idk if Europeans are familiar with the presence of Aldi in the US, but at least especially in my area they’ve been growing a lot recently. Like Aldi bought out some local failing grocery chains where I live (Louisiana) and have opened Aldis in all these somewhat rural communities and small towns, which for the record I’m fine with
But as a result of this they are advertising a lot more in my area and also in many cases, the people in these areas have never been confronted with Aldi or any European grocery store. So the ads that Aldi is pushing out to its new US customer base feature a cowboy shopping at Aldi who is explaining to new Aldi customers how Aldi works. Like this cowboy is explaining you gotta put a quarter in the shopping cart and why there are very little name brands. A cowboy is how they want to reach their American customer base. They gave us a cowboy
Here he is, the Aldi Cowboy
I take it OP lives in a part of the US that doesn't have cowboys? Because where I'm at, seeing a cowboy at the grocery store is completely unremarkable.
I'm sitting here reading this like: yes, they have commercials with a normal guy shopping. That doesn't seem unusual.
I'm getting these ads up in Minnesota, which is very odd, because we don't really have cowboys and we've had aldi for years. So you just get to watch a person who is dressed in a way that you don't often see explain something you already know.
Ah, Minnesota! Yes, a notably cowboy-deficient locale! Great scenery, though!

It’s Pride Month Eve, so leave out some milk for Freddie Mercury and his cats.
They’re looking at each other, comparing cats:
And Vincent Price was also bi so, y'know, let’s hear it for the bi pride catboys.
Let’s add a bi pride dog boy to the mix!
people reblogging this talking about the english language. fuck the english language. the fascinating thing here isn’t how you pronounce it, it’s his amazing teaching skills. monolingual people be quiet for once challenge
I really felt and shared her “Wow”
Ah, the glottal stop! A phoneme many native speakers don't realize they have. That's what he's getting at with deleting the T's at the ends of words.
A glottal stop isn't exactly the same as not voicing the sound at all but it's pretty close. One classic example of a glottal stop is the way an American pronounces the T in Batman. The T's in the example are all glottal stops as well! Except, of course, the one at the beginning of Talking.
Linguistics is fun!
Once each semester, Grit Matthias Phelps, a German language instructor at Cornell University, introduces her students to the raw feeling of
Not only did this experiment prevent plagiarism, it also taught her students to become better writers and thinkers.
"No screens, online dictionaries, spellcheckers, or delete keys."
Concerning the AI papers she kept receiving: “What’s the point of me reading it if it’s already correct anyway, and you didn’t write it yourself? Could you produce it without your computer?”
From one of her students,
“ 'While writing the essay, I had to talk a lot more, socialize a lot more, which I guess was normal back then...it’s drastically different from how we interact within the classroom in modern times. People are always on a laptop, always on the phone.' Without a delete key and the ability to correct every mistake, he paused to think more intentionally about his writing."
"Most students found their pinkies weren’t strong enough to touch-type, so they typed more slowly, pecking at the keyboard with their index fingers."
Another student said,
" 'This thing I handed in had pencil marks all over it and definitely did not look clean or finished. But it’s part of the process of learning that you’re going to make mistakes'..."
All this in a college level foreign language class. I cannot imagine attempting to pass a language class using AI and then expect to somehow magically speak it! Why pay buckets of money to be taught something and then refuse to actually learn it?
Whatever, I'm going back to hand writing my stories because relying on devices that keep breaking down on me is nuts.
Would love one of these little ones!
I don't hate it!
It isn't *necessary* to know how to use a typewriter but it will actually make you better at understanding how a computer keyboard works. And it does exercise some general skills that are good to have.
I also think there's a really satisfying physicality and level of haptic feedback with a typewriter but ymmv there.
So when the 2020s nostalgia wave hits in 2040 or so, it's gonna be really weird, right?
