I'm being dragged in the group chat bc I accidentally wore two different pairs of shoes to the theater. I wasn't even in a hurry, I have no fucking excuse for not noticing this

My mom just came into the room looking panicked and said “would you share complicity with me?”

[theotherwesley]

It was pastries, btw

She bought pastries for a group meeting but only got three of one specific kind which was not enough to share with the group but too many to eat by herself so she needed help destroying the evidence

can't stress enough how this was delivered with the same level of urgency as "can you help me bury a body?"

I love rebloging. It’s the adult equivalent of showing everyone the cool rock I just found.

White-winged chough (Corcorax melanorhamphos) family

These birds are so fun to observe, they are highly social and go everywhere together, scuffling around on the ground like chickens and perching on branches to preen.

They also have a fascinating mechanism where they can increase the blood flow to their eyes, causing them to appear very red and large to scare of predators or for social communication (in this shot, they were upset with me for winding down my car window 😅)

it's a good thing mensah is already married with kids by the start of all systems red because can you imagine trying to make a new longterm relationship work when you have to explain to potential partners that murderbot will be there. no not romantically or sexually. but it is there.

an underrecognised tragedy of AI slop isn't just that any piece of contemporary art could be AI, any news reel could be AI, it's that now just any video of something vaguely nice and whimsical happening in the world could be AI

this is about the trampoline bunnies

"lol if you just look closely you can tell when somethi--" silence nerd, the problem is that i don't want to have to approach everything nice wondering if the devil is trying to deceive me

you, artist online. somebody has referenced you in conversation irl by your online handle and somebody else knew who you were talking about. somebody has kept up closely with your posts for a period of time like their morning paper. somebody found a music artist because of you, thinks of you when they hear them on the radio. somebody followed you years ago and remembers you randomly even though they can't find you. somebody has screenshotted and saved your posts and sent them in discord servers. somebody has made your drawings their lockscreen, added them to their favorites folder and looked at them when they're going through some shit, has sent them to their best friend and sparked conversation in private chats. your art in particular could be the source of a keen sense of nostalgia for someone. maybe they've even printed out your images using their home printer and taped them to their bedroom wall and they look at it every day and they never even told you. isn't that scary? isn't that awesome? remember this well.

submit to the mortifying ordeal of being known so that you may turn around and see the impact you leave and the light you cast on others.
