i would like to officially thank sesame for its seeds, its oil, and of course its street

[tealmussel]

It's me and my oc x canon against the world

competitive pokemon is so whimsical to me . the cotton baby is tickling and complimenting the giant bird to make it stronger? and thats Meta? splendid

[footlongdingledong]

competitive pokemon is what people who dont know what fantasy football is would assume fantasy football is just from the name

[footlongdingledong]

oh i should explain this to nonpokemon people actually. ok these are the guys left is whimsicott right is mega staraptor

whimsicott has access to an ability called prankster (which makes status moves go first like quick attack) as well as a bunch of pretty good status moves that lower stats like charm (-2 attack) fake tears (-2 special def) and tickle (-1 atk and -1 def) (also has tailwind which makes you go faster for like 4 turns which is good)

and mega STARAPTOR has an ability called CONTRARY which swaps stats being lowered and stats being boosted. so if you try and lower its stats itll boost em instead and etc

so people are going into double battles with these two. and getting the little tiny whimsicott to charm and tickle this giant fuckoff bird to make its stats go UP and it is incredibly funny

WAIT IT’S CALLED A THROW PILLOW

[holorifle]

here is a super helpful website for this kinda thing!

the first result isn’t always the one you’re looking for but when you press enter it’ll give you a ton of words related to your query that’ll probably have what you’re wanting, or something better

here’s some examples:

I both kinda hate and kinda love that "this peace is what all true warriors strive for" is from fucking Zelda CD-i

[charlesoberonn]

It's unironically such a great response to anybody who venerates war and/or says that modern people are "too soft".

And the full quote starts with "mah boy".

“Do dishes” and “take out trash” both require the use of a spell slot, vs “use phone” is a cantrip, and brother, I am a level one wizard

[ggghoulish]

For anyone wondering, the PhD student's name is Myra Cheng.

Here's a link to an article about the study from the Stanford Report: link.

[chapscher]

Across three preregistered studies, participants interacting with sycophantic AI became more convinced of their own rightness and less willing to repair relationships. Yet at the same time, participants rated sycophantic AI models as higher quality, more trustworthy, and more desirable for future use, which may explain why this behavior has persisted despite its harmful impacts.

BIG UPDATE ON MY FAMILY'S CAR

To make a long story short, 3 tires on the car used to get me to work and my elderly grandmother to her doctor's appointments are absolutely ruined. More specifically we are missing multiple lug nuts, some of which are stuck floating to the point the tire is only half-attached to the vehicle. It has basically been a miracle every time we've driven that it wasn't the last.

And while we don't have an estimate yet it's going to cost a ton to repair which we cannot afford on our own.

I must ask for help not only for the repairs, but because until it's repaired the only way we can get around are rideshares.

I'll list my cashapp, venmo, and the official gofundme that my mom already has for situations like this.

I will update with the expected total once the car gets checked out on Monday (07/13)

Venmo: leonleonhart21

Cashapp: neroangelus

I'll admit "classic" Mega Man is my least favourite of all the Mega Man stuff from a pure gameplay perspective, but I can't help but adore it's actual aesthetic
