When you try to talk about enshittification, it sounds like conspiracy theories. (I'm not crazy)

Amazon made their service worse, to force people to pay for Prime.

Nowadays, if you order from Amazon, there is a week long delay before your package is shipped. (on purpose)

I remember when orders would ship out the same day. (I remember - it was real)

YouTube didn't used to have ads. Now, ads play in the middle of videos. (it's worse than TV ever was)

The best can opener I have owned is over 40 years old. Modern ones just don't hold up as well. (The ones I bought new broke ages ago)

The bread machine my mom got for her wedding lasted 30 years. It's been replaced twice in the last 5 years. (How can you fuck this up?)

The cardboard tubes in the middle of toilet paper rolls have gotten larger. (This too?) Companies increasing the price of the product while selling you less. (REALLY?)

It sounds crazy. (it's the truth) When you talk about it, YOU sound crazy. (it's true)

Even when people believe you (do they really), all they can say is "it sucks". (it's too big) Because the problem is so big, so pervasive, what can we even DO about it???

To get the necessary laws written and passed, we need politicians, to get the politicians elected we need information campaigns, to fund campaigns we need money, and all the money is being hoarded by the people profiting from enshittification. (it sounds so fake)

So I talk about enshittification (it sounds crazy), so people don't forget that things have been made worse on purpose (it's true), even though I sound crazy. (maybe I am)

[grimboigio]

It's called planned obsolescence and it was invented when lightbulbs could still run for 1000 years. Enshittification is the web-specific (and more specifically social media) version of that.

“Human as a flower”

This comic is animated. You can read a still version here <-

After one million years of production, I made this comic to try and answer the question “why are the flowers so insistent on being humans specifically?”

Decided to corrupt Deltarune Chapter 5 and immediately got the scariest fucking thing ever

Endlessly diabolical how you can't say words like rape and suicide uncensored without either being criticised by idiots or punished by conglomerates.

[bigfatbitchdotcom]

It's not r*pe, it's rape. It's not su*cide, it's suicide. Not unalive, dead. The backbone needs to be reintroduced en masse because softening the blow of these concepts with advertising language does absolutely nothing but allow people unaffected by them to feel not even a sting of what they can do, prompting inaction.

[bigfatbitchdotcom]

And it's been proven that on certain websites, you don't even face a repercussion for using the words as they are. People just started censoring themselves because they feared the potential lack of views and likes and followers which is so nasty itself.

[its-the-blob]

I attended an anti-suicide seminar in college. One of the big takeaways from it was that stigmatizing suicide increases the rate of suicide, because people who are feeling suicidal feel like they can't ask for help. Every time I see babytalk garbage like 'unalive', I think of that.

[ralfmaximus]

Use the real words. Words have power, and they matter.

gentle reminder that if u feel hungry soon after eating, it might be bc you’re eating mostly carbs without adding enough protein. try eating a handful of nuts or smthing alongside your next meal.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

and you don’t have to change the recipe or anything! you can eat what you were going to, just add some cheese cubes or a handful of nuts or salami slices on the side. u don’t have to change your meals, just add a little extra protein

[kreature-ofthenight]

thats nice but what do I need to do If I wake up around 3 am every other night with an unquenchable hunger for flesh even tho I ate normal balanced meals trough the day?

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

spoonful of peanut butter

[trustworthymedicaladvice]

another way to manage the undying hunger for flesh is to eat 15-20 live crickets. their souls are weaker than most other animals that size but they are easy to get a hold of and have the best flavor

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

this checks out!

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

a few people have commented that sometimes heartburn gets mistaken for hunger. I’d never heard that before. If you regularly feel hungry after eating certain types of foods (and adding protein/fat doesn’t help) maybe try chewing an antacid. the digestive tract is dark sorcery basically. an ancient worm coiled in your body whose impish mischief u must appease

i will never get over the dongos in totk being just vending maschines that appeared senselessly out of nowhere, id rather not see the animal from the trailer than have their only purpose be lead you on with a 'mysterious creature' quest for several stables and then they do nothign but sit around eating glowstones to shit out jewels supposedly living in tropical environments when that makes no sense on account of that kind of area being rather small, you having never seen one ever, there being no new area that fits that and it being utterly contradictory to their design and apparent feeding habits ... you couldnt even make them originate from caves? not even the bare minimum of thought put into it??

[masscontroversy]

TotK really did just become the Super Mario Galaxy 2 of Zelda where it could’ve been something interesting but instead it was made for the sole purpose of using concepts that they couldn’t in the first game and nothing else

“Hey Link guess what, we gutted like 95% of the Sheikah tech instead of finding a way to repurpose it into something a bit more harmless! Also it sure is lucky that you have a magic arm on ya because otherwise we’d be super mega fucked with how the weapons suck major ass now!”

And then he doesn’t even get to keep it even though there’s not much further expansion they can do for the Blue Boy Duology and it just kinda comes off as having a Happy Ending for the sake of having a Happy Ending

Susie use little tail and switshed away leaves on a stump before sitting down...

This appears to be a reference to a piece of fanart from 2018 by 苔玉 (Kokedama) on pixiv, titled "しっぽ使いスージィちゃん" ("Tail-user Susie-chan")

#deltarune しっぽ使いスージィちゃん - 苔玉のうごイラ - pixiv

Ｔシャツの発表によってしっぽ無いことがわかっちゃったけどこれはただの二次創作だからなんの問題もないね2021.9.21追記chapter2ありがとう…………………

[abandoned-quiche]

every deltarune knight theory is like "in chapter 6, we know that the knight must have locked noelle in the shelter in the time between kris removing their SOUL and them putting it back in. but if you time how long it takes to run as kris from the holiday house to the shelter, you can see that it takes ten seconds longer than the time that they are without their SOUL. and we know that dess has the same running speed as kris from this chase sequence here, so that means she can't have made it to the shelter fast enough for this timeline to line up, and therefore she can't be the knight."

and then the next chapter it turns out none of that bullshit mattered because toby fox was actually prioritizing a satisfying narrative instead of timing pedantry

Omg this looks like some sort of Fairytale Horror; like, a town with trees that have missing pets or people etched into them- coming off naturally enough to be dismissed as bark/tree discolouration

[questions-within-questions]

The framing of this image is just perfect subtle horror. 

[squareenix-official-deactivated]

Chill it’s a pole

[spider-hands-mannos-deactivated]
