Just watched Adam Conover (of Adam Ruins Everything) make such a solid point that I think we should spread far and wide. Yes, having AI write your emails is lazy, sure, but people love being lazy. We need to really emphasize that sending AI emails (or using AI responses on social media, or publishing AI flyers, or or or) is rude.

It's rude. You're making someone take their time to read something you couldn't bother to write. You're telling them they were so unimportant you couldn't be bothered to actually take the time to say something yourself. And frankly, you're lying about it while you're at it.

It's rude.

The above is doubly true if the content of the email is something that will be important to the person receiving - especially something that affects them negatively. They see that this thing that affected them so much didn't matter enough to you to write it yourself. I was a bystander to such a thing not long ago and it was just awful.

> the Vietnamese

> that country

It's like you don't even pretend to view Vietnamese People as human

America killed 3 million Vietnamese people, we put half of South Vietnam in Concentration Camps, we dropped more bombs on North Vietnam than were dropped by both sides in WW2, We permeantly poisoned the land with Agent Orange, the American war on Vietnam was the most inhuman and despicable action in this nations history, the Vietnamese had every right to do whatever they wanted to the occupation

As an older queer, allow me to say: the walls of the closet are load-bearing. It is our job as a community to stand in front of that door and tell everyone who wants to peek inside to fuck off.

There are so many reasons a person may choose not to come out and there is no reason a person would owe the public or a stranger that information. Certainly it's not owed simply because someone is famous.

We have fought for decades to make it safer for people to be open and authentic about themselves, but we are not yet there. And even if we were, the closet would still be something we need to maintain for those who are not ready to reveal that part of themselves.

May we never become so obsessed with representation that we forget the sanctity of privacy.

unfortunately i can never hate on a "power of friendship" narrative no matter how corny because the thing is it's literally real

I've repaired two phones in the past five days (one including a battery swap- screen and frame swap- rethermal paste- minor surgery for certain parts I didn't want to order, both needed a port/deep clean and back cover replacement) and somehow the most annoying part is closing it all up so i can use the phones as normal. Devastating. Ego boost nerfed by something that should be incredibly easy.

The Cab releasing an album in 2026 is so funny. Like yeah it's been fourteen years since their last. What about it.

you should really get comfortable believing in love and magic and whimsy or you’ll continue to live a half-life for the rest of the time you have on earth

It's 2006. I open livejournal. Anti zutara fans are saying the ship shouldn't exist. I shut off the family pc. It's 2016. I open tumblr. Anti zutara fans are saying the ship shouldn't exist. I turn off my laptop. It's 2026. I open Twitter. Anti zutara fans are saying the ship shouldn't exist. I close the app. It's 2036.
