What would you do if you were scrolling through recommended tumblr posts and one was from someone you don't know and it was just a picture of your dad captioned "fucking hate this guy" and it had hundreds of notes
reblog it
doesn't it piss you off that you have to find something to eat every single day. every one of them. just every day. you gotta eat something
Clark saying the creatures don't feel anything and then later in the same scene the woman anomaly is seen attempting to run away from the pirate, seemingly in fear. Something something devaluation of life seen as different than him.
And it’s taking things overly literally, which seems to be a bad habit of his.
He knows that they don’t feel physical pain. Most likely because they don’t have nerves since that seems an easy thing for the dimension with dementia to forget to add.
Same with them not being very expressive on a facial level. Due to well… Being a physical guesstimation of a person. All that overlapping biology would definitely make traditional emoting impossible. Too many eyes, brow bones, noses, etc. might not even have enough muscles for it. The one he tore into seemed made mostly of just pure fat.
But they’re alive regardless. They’re reactive and respond to stimuli in ways they understand how to.
Not just in red haired creature running and shrieking in fear. That’s easy to read. But also the lampshade one rapidly turning its lampshade on and off.
That’s a panic response from something that can’t flee because the chair is a part of its body. Doing the two things it knows it can. Turn on the light and turn off the light.
But the one he doesn’t undermine the interiority of? At least not as much? The captain. His copy.
He try’s to reason to that one. Talks to it like it understands him. Despite it looking the least real. It looks like a puppet over a man.
But it’s “him” so it matters
Ignoring ongoing covid paved the way for this change and put millions more in worse danger because of it. Mask up. Keep people developing debilitating long-term illness the government wants you to die from.
Where's that person who said I was fear mongering and actually they were an expert who's helped people keep their disability because they were completely overlooking this point that I assumed was clear because I might know just a bit more about gov't assistance than the average person. This will kill people. This will force disabled people out of their homes. This will take people who are barely surviving and make it so they can't survive at all and that's the point.
ok so
everyone knows about this meme, right?
but does anyone else know the woman who made the food? no? time to educate!
This is “Mother Mary”, the owner of Blackberry’s mother.
She made all the cakes for the restaurant while it was open. Chef Gordon Ramsay tried her red velvet cake, and spoke this meme-able line:
He then called Mary over, complimented her food, and gave her a peck on the cheek.
Look how happy she was to hear that!!!
anyways, I hope she has been able to continue her love for baking since the restaurant closed down.
For these who don’t know: The restaurant she worked at closed down but she left before that and opened her own bakery, that’s apparently very successful!
tom nook is NOT a landlord!!! he is a construction worker! he SELLS you a WHOLE HOUSE! He is not CHARGING YOU however many bells a month to live there! You PURCHASE a HOME that he BUILDS FOR YOU and then you PAY HIM FOR HIS SERVICE. He charges no interest he sets no time limit it is a relationship built on trust. the only penalty you get for not paying off your home is that he won't build more home until you pay him for the first one. A guy that builds you a house wherever you want him to and then charges you for the cost of construction is not a landlord you own the fucking home
He is, however, in the mafia
Saw this license plate today and I'm still ugly laughing about it
so i hauve covid rn and i must say, American cold medicine is the absolute bees knees. You go to a UK pharmacy and they tenderly press like eight (8) paracetamol into the palm of your hand... God FORBID you're sick in France, i had to scour every pharmacy in Paris for something that wasn't HOMEOPATHIC PASTILLES. meanwhile last night i took the last of my stash of Nyquil that expired in 2019 and it was like getting hit by a fucking baseball bat (affectionate). press X to timeskip. LOVE me a cheeky little medically induced coma. you can really feel that it's a precursor to meth. i know that everything is fucking awful over there my friedns and my heart goes out to every one of you but if you need one small bright light of national pride in this time of strife please know that i envy you your cold medicine every day
i once took an american antihistamine pill just a basic one for seasonal allergies and i had to immediately lay down and while doing so i vividly hallucinated that i was a steerage passenger on the titanic resigned to my death as my cabin filled up rapidly with water. then i blacked out and when i woke up again my allergies were gone for the entire season.
Meanwhile, the American taking American antihistamines like, "I can't tell it did anything?"
Unless it's Diphenhydramine. And that's the shit that fucks with your head.

do you ever tell people you’ll be going to sleep but then you don’t and you have to not do anything noticable online for the sake of it seeming as if you didn’t lie to them
the last time i got sloppy with this @tinynaught Columbo’d me
this post is classic tumblr in a lot of ways but the one I appreciate the most is that the second post happened eleven years after the first one. one of these days I’m going to see a reply to a post by someone younger than the post itself and we’re all just going to have to deal with it
This is literally what people are talking about when they say AI will be used to mainstream widely held bigotry. LLMs are trained on frequency and probability -> straight relationships are more well represented in the dataset -> straight pronouns and terms become the "correct" normal.
This is a form of backdoor bigotry from both normative facts (there are more straight than gay relationships) and well represented bigoted beliefs (men are superior to women).
Combine this with the mass of people inclined to believe (and being encouraged to believe) that if AI says and does something it must be correct
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.
This is a huge part of why listening to public trans discourse as a trans biologist is infuriating. 4chan OP is based AF.
I saw backrooms last night and one thing that I actually didn't love in the movie that I've not come to really enjoy was how quickly clark goes kinda crazy in there.
I do still wish there was one or two more scenes included that I think would have made me enjoy it more on the first watch, but I think its really interesting how for most of the movie even though we know clark is a shitty husband and a shitty boss we don't know HOW shitty he actually is.
For majority of the movie its extremely plausible that clark is just a run of the mill douche bag. Sure he yelled at his therapist at the beginning but its therapy! Mary even tells him its the point of the exercise for him to get angry like that! No big deal! And yea he's rude to kat and bobby when filming the commercial but he's clearly frustrated about business and that he just broke a chair with his ass in a silly pirate costume. That scenes might even feel relatable for many people in the audience with shitty jobs.
And then when he's exploring the backrooms for the first time he almost has this childlike wonder about the place. Where most people would reasonably just not go back in he's getting so much delight from finding something he thinks is pretty important and using his architect knowledge to map the place out. Yea he's reckless with Kat and Bobbies lives but even that feels like Clark is just So! Excited! To Explore!
And then hes strangling Mary. And then he has her tied to a chair. A chair that's in his fake family doll house of these backroom still-life's, with his sort of ex wife standing at attention in the corner and these people he seemingly doesn't know from his real life that he's taken as friends? New family members? Whatever he is using them as stand in's for it is definitely not whatever they were originally "made for" in the backrooms.
I think it serves as such an ice bucket drop on the audience of how horrible Clark really is as a person. No he probably wasn't tying his ex wife up outside of the backrooms or anything like that, but he almost certainly commanded their home like she was. Clark is fundamentally a broken man in someway who's desperate to feel normal? In control? Powerful? A mix of all three and more? Clark is given the tools to create those feelings for himself though by the backrooms and literally JUMPS at the opportunity. At first I thought there had to have been a time skip before this scene that I missed but no, Clark literally turns to this new lifestyle in the backrooms the second he meets his own backrooms memory.
TLDR: Clark is every man ever who refuses to take accountability for their actions and resort to weird justifications and violence.
The most important change in the Backrooms movie from the original short films is the fact that you can now "easily" enter and leave the backrooms this time.
Originally, you had people accidentally falling and getting stuck there and that was the main fear the backrooms instilled on people; What if you were trapped in an infinite room and maybe theres creatures in there?
This time, the film gives the protagonist infinite chances to go back, to place a big dresser in front of the entrance and forget he ever saw it.
But he can't and he won't. And that's so much scarier.
