let's all have a fun time looking up new words when we encounter them to see what they mean before incorporating them into our vocabularies

my friends and I have created a game we call Quipposting, where you play quiplash but you roll a wheel full of character archetypes, and whatever it lands on, you all answer as if you are like, a wizard or cowboy. This legitimately makes quiplash go from a fun enough game to an S+ tier absolute unabashed banger

[ouroborosorder]

the best characters are Mafia Goon, Cyberpunk Hacker, Castle Guard, Sewer Rat, 16th Century Peasant, and Alien Poorly Pretending to be Human

[clamberingcat]

OP we desperately need examples

[ouroborosorder]

these are all from mafia goonposting but I think it’s my absolute favorite one of all time so I have a lot of pictures from it. Turn on some jazz and wait until people start talking in the accent and you’ll make Magic

for real tho it feels exhausting that ive seen this whole "woman should be allowed to abstain from X beauty standard" -> "i perform X beauty standard, am i evil? do you think im evil? please forgive me i came up with a dozen excuses 🥺" since like 2015 (and i know its been going on longer than that) like girl thats not the poiiiiint

[strawberry-crocodile]

look me in the eyes. repeat after me. "i face societal pressure to perform this beauty standard. i should not face that pressure. i conform to this standard. i am rewarded for performing to this standard. i need to respect women who do not perform this standard. this is not about whether or not i am a sinner for wearing makeup."

Not to oversimplify a complex issue, but i think we could reduce the number of deadly car crashes by increasing wages and having shorter work weeks.

[jade-is-greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen]

If we have a four day work week instead of five, that reduces car trips for work by about a fifth. Thus reducing car crashes related to traveling for work by roughly 20%.

I'll do you one better- if the 4 day work week had a different 4 days for employees on a company or even individual scale, you have 20% less work traffic Monday through Friday. I suspect taking that edge off for non-work commuters (like those buying groceries) could reduce crashes even further with less cars on the road at peak times.

Even better than this, public transportation infrastructure could reduce the number of cars by letting people on local work commutes travel more efficiently in busses or trains.

The solution is simple: stop abusing the working class and pay us livable wages.

[libraford]

An estimated 16-21% of fatal car crashes are due to fatigue.

They can try, and spend absurd amounts of money, and they might even make absurd amounts of money back, but we all know the real metric of cultural relevance.

stop letting miserable people on the internet convince you that you must have a concrete, well-constructed opinion on everything that has ever existed.
