-waves- hello! I don't look my age and probably don't behave it too. Happiness and smiles are very important to me, and I am easily amused/amazed/happy. At the same time, I'm rather emotional and 'feel' for others, be it fictional or not.

Recipes from Portland's famous but long-closed Rheinlander restaurant. This cookbook was produced in a limited window before Chef Mager's death. All of these fucking slap.

For my fellow vegan/vegetarians, these sound scrumptious and look pretty simple to make substitutions!

Scottish government currently has a bunch of ads up to get screened for lung cancer, but for some reason they’ve decided to personify cancer as some sort of gothic butch milf and I’m obsessed with her

No way thats called Orangina

[jungwildeandfree]

and while we’re at it, fuck this idea that ONE ACCOUNT has to belong uniquely to ONE PERSON. This is the same thing these silicon valley fucks want; their vision of the future where everyone has a unique biometric ID code implanted in their body is the ultimate extension of Netflix’s “no password sharing” policy. You want to use your friend’s car? Sorry, you can’t, you need to be an authorized user. Your mother wants to let you look something up on her OED account? Too bad! That’s only for her! The concept of perfect market efficiency gives them greedy little money bag eyes.

If I pay money to have a newspaper sent to my house, they don’t charge me extra when I show it to my dad. This password sharing thing isn’t just a Netflix problem; don’t be surprised if it shows up elsewhere in other forms. Stamp this idea out now or we’ll be stuck with it.

This is by far the most popular post I have and I have to say: good, I’m right. Password sharing and ID verification are going to kill the internet. not oooh in 50 years. in like 5 more.

AI disturbance overlays for those who don't have Ibis paint premium. found them on tiktok

[quitetheweirdegg]

how do you use these?

[arson-jellyfish]

Put these on the top layer above everything, set layer to 'overlay' then adjust opacity. You can put it on whatever opacity you want but usually 30%+ is most effective.

The point is to obstruct the picture so AI can't read your image because AI counts every single pixel in your art

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again but it is absolutely an example of civilizational inadequacy that only deaf people know ASL

“oh we shouldn’t teach children this language, it will only come in handy if they [checks notes] ever have to talk in a situation where it’s noisy or they need to be quiet”

[raginrayguns]

My mom learned it because she figured she’ll go deaf when she gets old

[manyblinkinglights]

My family went holiday SCUBA diving once, and a couple of Deaf guys were in the group. I was really little and I spent most of the briefing overcome with the realization that while the rest of us were going to have regulators in our mouths and be underwater fairly soon, they were going to be able to do all the same stuff and keep talking.

[tell-the-stars-hello]

The only reason some form of sign language is not a standard skill is ableism, as far as I can tell.

For anyone interested in learning, Bill Vicars has full lessons of ASL on youtube that were used in my college level classes. 

https://www.youtube.com/user/billvicars

and here’s the link to the website he puts in his videos:

https://www.lifeprint.com/

[naurielrochnur]

Update: you guys this is an amazing resource for learning asl. Bill Vicars is an incredible teacher. His videos are of him teaching a student in a classroom, using the learned vocabulary to have conversations.

Not only is the conversation format immersive and helpful for learning the grammar, but the students make common mistakes which he corrects, mistakes I wouldn’t have otherwise know I was making.

He also emphasizes learning ASL in the way it’s actually used by the Deaf community and not the rigid structure that some ASL teachers impose in their classrooms

His lesson plans include learning about the Deaf community, which is an important aspect of learning ASL. Knowing how to communicate in ASL without the knowledge of the culture behind it leaves out a lot of nuances and explanations for the way ASL is.

Lastly, his lessons are just a lot of fun to watch. He is patient, entertaining, and funny. This good natured enthusiasm is contagious and learning feels like a privilege and not a chore

And it’s all FREE. Seriously. If you’ve ever wanted to learn ASL

Context: This Person Literally Set Up a Phone to Film This 

All online video content needs to be viewed with important context: the creator wanted you to see it.

by Cartoons Hate Her / April 3 2025

I remember seeing a video a while ago on Facebook Reels, where a mother effectively consoled her screaming toddler by helping him “emotionally regulate” with deep breathing exercises (it turns out he just wanted water, so I’m less impressed with her conflict resolution techniques. Come back to me when the request is for an antique porcelain egg that they will definitely break- that was an actual tantrum I diffused last night.)

Anyway, it occurred to me halfway through the video that I was missing some context—this woman wasn’t just a good mom who successfully gave her toddler water to end a tantrum. She was a mom who filmed her toddler’s meltdown, while he was wearing nothing but a pull-up, and posted it online to show everyone how good of a mom she was. Nothing in the video itself was reprehensible—if I were a secret bystander in that room, I’d have thought she was a good mom, showing commendable patience with a screaming kid. But I wasn’t seeing this scene by accident. She literally filmed it and posted it to show everyone how great of a mother she was, while she humiliated her toddler and filmed him in a vulnerable state. The inclusion of the iPhone camera—once recognized—changes the entire context of the video.

A viral video where a parent records their "creative" punishment for their teenager skipping class? Parent is even worse then you think, because they filmed it. A viral video where a woman confronts her friend about refusing to wear the bridesmaid dress because it wasn't the style she requested? She's a pain in the ass, and weird enough to put something like that online. A viral video where a woman in the throes of postpartum depression screams that she hates her baby? She needs help and whoever filmed it is a terrible person. We are not invisible witnesses to other people's lives — we are intended audiences to content creators. Their careers (or even just hobbies) as content creators have to be taken into account.
