Ben Shulman should do descriptive video narration

If Vladdy gets his first at-home home run of the season during an Apple exclusive game I’m gonna be super pissed

Maybe the most damming thing about Nolans odyssey is i haven’t seen a single gifset from it

Until death, all defeat is psychological.

Murdoch Mysteries has been on so long I'm recognizing guest stars from other episodes of Murdoch Mysteries

[grunge-mermaid]

that is not a 23-year-old

that is a 40-year-old man who just stepped out of 1982 and onto the mound

that is a 40-year-old man who should have a baseball in one hand and a lucky strike and a micheloeb ultra in the other

[grunge-mermaid]

I'm a simple Canadian. a musician plays a Canadian city in a sports jersey for that city, I like that musician

Julia as a literal scarlet woman in Twentieth Century Murdoch is my second favourite outfit of Julia's in the entire series

(favourite is when she wears Murdoch's prospecting clothes)

I do think the ability to emoji-react is a net win for human communication. not only does it give you an outlet for 'I see and acknowledge this but don't have a verbal response' but it also adds a pleasing alethiometer element to things

my coworker announces that he's off to the dentist. someone reacts with a tooth emoji. is this a statement of dentist solidarity? a wish for my coworker to return with more (or fewer?) teeth than he set out with? simple word association? who can say

[softness-and-shattering]

Friend of mine calls it active listening. Ah yes we are speaking of tooths. I understand and respond. Here it a tooth image. I have heard you.

best part of Murdoch Night In Canada: "wagon!"

worst part of Murdoch Night In Canada: realizing it's so old Stephen Harper was still Prime Minister

I, a hearing person who likes subtitles just as a preference, shouldn't have to read a subtitle that's obvious nonsense, go back a couple seconds, and listen again in order to figure out what's going on. An accessibility feature should not be the most half-assed part of a professionally made production. Scripted media has absolutely no excuse for not having subtitles or having subtitles that aren't perfectly verbatim. Professional captioning services should be ashamed of the shoddy work that they put out. Captions should be treated as a part of the production, just like filming, editing, audio balancing, etc - and anything that releases with missing or bad captions should be seen as unfinished

Is there a word for occupying the space where normies think you're a freak and freaks think you're a normie?

I tell a woman with a 9 to 5 office job about the slightly niche speculative fiction novel I just finished and she goes "Oh, that's...interesting. I hadn't heard of that."

I tell a grungy chick I met at a dive bar about the same book and she kinda scoffs and goes "Okay" like I said my favorite show is Sesame Street

honour bound to dislike Ranger Suarez but that is a gorgeous diamond necklace

[grunge-mermaid]

[grunge-mermaid]

DS9 A-plot: The station is overrun by an unknown computer virus, shutting off all power. Situations are dire, and no one can figure out anything about it- except that it originated from within Captain Sisko’s quarters…

B-plot; Jake “accidentally” clicks on a “Hot Bajoran MILFs in your area!!1!” ad and now something’s up with the lights
