I took my little brother (autistic, mostly non verbal) out and he was using his voice keyboard to tell me something, and this little boy (maybe 4 or 5?) heard him and asked me "Is he a robot??" I tried to explain to him that no, he isn't a robot, he just communicates differently, but my darling brother was in the background max volume "I am robot I am robot I am robot I am robot"

[marian-devotee]

My little brother insisted if I was going to post about him, he wanted a cut of the "profits". When I explained to him that Tumblr isn't monetized, and is pretty pointless, he and my older brother pointed out that he'd still be bringing me "fame and notoriety" if the post got "big". So we agreed, if the post hit 10k notes, which seemed extremely farfetched and silly at the time, I'd take my little brother out for sushi (his favorite food) and let him eat as much as he wants.

I guess God wanted the little robot to enjoy some sushi 🍣 🥲

when the post hits just right

[girlcodedhamlet]

it's very frustrating seeing otherwise well-structured posts about media literacy and critical thinking bookended with statements about "nowadays", "nobody has literacy anymore", "this generation is so anti-intellectual", and the like, unquestioningly falling into better past fallacies.

Do we really think the 80s and its Satanic Panic were better at critical thinking? what about the 40s? the Victorian era? societies have always had problems with critical thinking and literacy, because most societies have dealt with propaganda, corrupt leadership, difficulty providing education (due to poverty or discrimination or other issues), and/or people who resist critical thinking (due to privilege or circumstance or what have you). we can criticize media trends without pulling a "well back in the GOOD OLD DAYS" about it.

making video games sucks balls btw dont do it

[sinsinewave]

especially don't do it if you like writing clean and robust code, video games tend to need the exact opposite if you want to finish them during this century

FUUUUUUUUCK

was in the woods and saw my friend lying down on some moss and i was like oh hey! so i lied down next to them and after a few minutes i was like "this is like that hozier song, in a week." they said, "i don't think know it." i said, "you know, the one about him and a woman dead and decomposing in a field together, like romantically." they said, "oohhh. how's it go?" so i started singing In A Week from the top and we were just lying there with bugs crawling on us until more of our friends came by like "hey...we're gonna get going to the lake......................." and we were like damn but we kind of have this whole thing going on right now

Lately I can't stop thinking about what CatDog would be drawn like by FotM artists. Obviously they wouldn't keep them conjoined, but what fun is that? I think these can be refined more, but here is my basic concepts for them. I think Winslow would basically be a lalafell.

really enjoyed the picturesque drive home with my digicam

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Never start feeding a cat. It will love you and a cat that loves you is the most annoying beast on the planet.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

#why not just love it back then#like if i wanted to i could make this a whole thing and send it to my crush but i'll just leave it here

Loving it back makes both you and the cat more annoying

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

#so....hows it going with the neighbor's neglected cat....

He's the snuggliest bastard in the entire fucking world thanks for asking

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

You guys will never guess what beast is kneading all the skin off my shoulders right now

It's fun when the robot character in the sci-fi show gets cut in half because nobody working on this type of media knows anything about robotics and you never know what you're going to find inside. Green printed circuit boards? Meat and viscera, but like in a weird colour? Just a shitload of goo?

[prokopetz]

I especially like it when the robot appears to have realistic musculature which operates via contraction, suggesting some sort of fluid-driven or shape-memory-based actuation, and then it gets dismembered and a bunch of random gears and sprockets go flying everywhere.

[prokopetz]

You're a sci-fi robot who just got cut in half by the Big Bad (don't worry, you'll get better). What's inside you?

Printed circuit boards (blinking lights optional)

Gears and sprockets

Endless bundles of wire

Some sort of translucent crystal

Meat and viscera in a weird colour

Random geometric shapes

The cut is mirror-smooth, like I was one solid mass of metal

It looks like... car parts?

I'm actually mostly hollow

Just a shitload of milky goo

Other (specify)

I like to think my engineers foresaw the likelihood of my bisection and designed a clean break point with that in mind, leaving a small compartment filled with confetti

hydraulic fluid. notably there aren't any hydraulic systems in/on my person, the closest thing to such is the pneumatic shocks on my ankles.

gotta be a term that isn't the dunning Krueger effect but is a kind of similar idea where the more deep scientists get into their topic and the more exhausted they get, the more likely they are to find stupid ways to describe things

this post brought to you by a bunch of coral specialists at the end of a workshop voting to define coral, a complex animal, as "a rock with problems"
