gamers aren’t so much a sub culture as they are a group of people that marketers were able to create so they could sell more expensive toys
Which subcultures weren’t invented by marketers though

fucked up that some of my earliest childhood memories are realizing I'm not allowed to like certain things anymore because they're too girly and I'd be bullied
you are like hatsune miku to me
i feel pretty and empowered
Did you know there is a monument to lab rats used for DNA research.
That’s kinda neat.
Three thousand years from now, future archeologists will uncover the ruins of an ancient civilization heavily influenced by animism. Here we see a mouse-god knitting DNA which was no doubt an offering to the gods, as it was found outside of what can only be described as a temple.

Life advice from Jiminy Cricket. Disney should never have canceled House of Mouse.
I REMEMBER THIS. LOOK AT BEAST’S FACE OMFG
no one is stupid in quite the same way as a tumblr user
this almost makes me want to go back to law school
"Spending money makes a CEO look busy. And at a time when there were no other potential growth avenues, AI was a convenient way to make everybody look busy."
-Ed Zitron, "NVIDIA Isn't Enron - So What Is It?"
It really is just 3-8 mega corporations moving a couple (semi-) imaginary billions between each other for ai-software and data sets and ram, with boardroom members pocketing hundreds of millions each in stock & bonuses that they will only hoard and never ‚re-invest‘ into the economy.
Growing up, older folks would always get confused when I expressed familiarity with media from their childhoods and would act incredulous when I attempted to explain the concept of reruns. They'd be like "How do you, a child of this fallen era, know of Looney Tunes" and I'd be like "Because it has never not been playing on television" and this would seem to be brand new information to them
Like I would go about wearing my Led Zeppelin t-shirt and all these old dudes would be like "Surely this ignorant youth must be professing a false knowledge of such ancient secrets" but like if u turn on the radio in 1996 or 2006 or 2026, you know what's always gonna be on the damn radio? Zeppelin, man.
I was making a doodle about an AroAce mood and fucked up the third panel but I think this might be better actually

10 YEARS IN THE ABANDONED SALT MINE.
Companies that rushed to replace human labor with AI are now shelling out to have IRL workers to fix the technology's screwups.
Delicious. We love to see it.

Ultimately, she spent 20 hours redoing the copy from scratch — and with her $100-per-hour rate, that meant her client was shelling out $2,000 for copy that likely would have ended up being far cheaper had a human just written it in the first place.
I love stories like this.
Get peer reviewed!
in order to unlearn racism u have to be willing to accept that u are racist. it’s not a bad thing to want to change for the better. it’s not a bad thing to say hey, the way i’ve been acting is racist and i don’t want to be racist anymore. when people of color are telling u ways in which u have been racist, it’s actually not cool to brush it off and say, well i didn’t mean it that way.. u actually have to make an effort to stop doing those things if u want to be able to actually say ur anti-racist. u can’t just say ur not racist because u don’t wanna be seen as racist. that’s not how unlearning racism works.
“um i’m actually a good person so calling me racist couldn’t possibly be true. ur just attacking me!” see how the racism is literally right there? see how ur just seconds away from calling me an angry black girl?
I literally reblogged this a day ago and OP was still up. This shit is entirely unacceptable fucking hell.
Whether this was a mass report until OP got auto-modded or a racist mod terminating OP with prejudice, any Black person who speaks up on racism instead of just grinning and bearing it still risks getting nuked from fucking orbit in this shithole.
Take what OP said to heart and do away with your white fragility.
Had a charming conversation with essentially my sister-in-law (my partner's brother's partner) over Christmas drinks during which she said, "I'm so anti-racist! I'm the least racist person you'll ever meet! But I just think that maybe Islams [sic] shouldn't be allowed into the country!" Dear Santa, all I want for Christmas is the conversation to end...
Anyway if you're insisting you cannot possibly be racist, you're probably racist xx
Cute sheep..
