happy halloween! here is a ghost duet

atp the only way we’re going to get out of this ai shit while people’s brains are still semi intact is to start bribing influencers and tiktokers into saying chatgpt is cringe and it emits a frequency that blocks your divine energy which can only be channeled back by reading a book and talking to your friends

[goldcrescent]

mama bears listen up: human traffickers are using chatgpt to pick out their next victims!!! Every time you use it they create a profile of you and bubs and the more you use it the easier they can track you. If you’ve ever found a brightly colored wrapper just under your car at target or walmart it means they are signaling accomplices in the area to get ready to ambush you!!!!! Mamas help me spread the word!!!!!!!!!

[goldcrescent]

different audience no problem: what kind of beta shit are you talking about brother your ancestors were in the trenches fighting wolves barehanded and shit and you need a fucking computer to tell you what to do? You’re so fucking cucked dude you gotta do shit the PRIMAL way, you let a computer think for you you might as well let it chew your food get your gains and fuck your wife get this sissy shit out of my face bro it literally lowers your sperm count

I am reliably informed literacy will improve your chances of finding a decent job, not to mention reading rental leases carefully and being able to research your rights as a tenant, both of which will significantly reduce your chances of ending up homeless. Not to mention being able to budget. Or being able to read between the lines on ads so you're more likely to work out you don't really need the thing and/or it's a scam.

[tittyinfinity]

I'm sorry but it's way too sketchy to have to "sign up" for a protest. There's no reason you should have to give anyone your full name, email, phone number, and/or address in order to march in the streets. People are getting arrested left and right because cops have access to information that connects people to the protests they were at. If an organization is having people "sign up to join the fight," all the cops need to do is access that list.

Just go. Don't leave a fucking paper trail.

good evening officer

[tf2heritageposts]

don’t tell social media if you went to protests or not(especially if you didn’t), don’t give cops an easy way to track down protesters. punk life advice

Doing this benefits these species tremendously. They can become so rare over such a vast area as people destroy the only plants they can eat, every single one that survives makes a positive difference!

Just tried to play an ancient flute and it started filling the room with this awful miasma that wont go away

[slimetony]

Why does staff still allow people funnier than you to leave tags on your posts. They should have fixed that by now

[chaumas-deactivated20240115]

you either die a blogger who answers every bad faith criticism or maladaptively oversensitive misunderstanding with earnest explanation or you live long enough to become the sort of person who replies to shit with “yes, I think every cat and every person who likes cats should die immediately, that’s exactly the conclusion you should be drawing from what I said”

Fun story. When I was actively being stalked (both online and IRL), I contacted the police exactly one time. I showed them the physical notes that had been left under the wiper blade on my car after I blocked the man on social media. I showed them the previous Facebook messages this man had sent me that described, in detail, what he wanted to do to me.

The police said they couldn’t help me because the man had not actually physically done any of those things to me. He’d just talked about his desires. They even made excuses for him. He’s awkward. He’s lonely. You’re pretty. It’s a compliment.

So friendly reminder that when a man with a record and weapons makes verbal/written threats against a woman, there’s nothing police can do.

But when a frustrated woman being denied medical coverage with no record and no weapons makes a “verbal threat” against a corporation, she’s arrested immediately.

[mrpinchy]

you don't have to go to thanksgiving/ xmas/ holidays with your family this year or any year if you don't want to. you can lie about not being able to go or just tell them to fuck off etc, but you don't have to go.

you don't have to go.

[kyle1]

this is true, but Love matters more than your feelings... and you really SHOULD go.

[mrpinchy]

nah.

i'll repeat for anyone looking for permission:

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GO TO FAMILY HOLIDAY STUFF THIS YEAR or any year, for any reason

you can actually do whatever you want forever as far as holiday obligations go! and if you don't want to see your family, that's fine. you're not doing something wrong, you're not a bad child, you're not disrespecting your loved ones by putting your own health and safety first during these very scary times.

you get one (1) life on this planet and you dont need to spend any of it justifying your existence to your family, not this year or any year. please take care of yourself first.

DNI lists on this website are fucking insane

[lakesbian]

can we explain to early-twenties autistic lgbt people that they . cant be saying these things. you cant be calling people 'degens' in your dni you cant do that. you cant do that man. can we do a history lesson. you cant do that

[lakesbian]

YOU CANT DO THAT MAN

[lakesbian]

"in defense of using the term degen, it's generally applied to pedophiles" - conservative man who might actually shoot a trans woman if he saw one within 50 meters of his child, and also LGBT tumblr users who do not know things they should know

[dreadedloreenkid]

"Degeneracy" is a fascist concept. There is no defending that word, just stop using it

[nothorses]

to be extra clear. the reason it is fascist is because it implies a) an ideal past that society has fallen from, and b) people who are responsible for society's fall from that ideal past.

a "degenerate" is someone who caused/causes society to fall from that ideal past.

even applying the term "degenerate" to people who have actually sexually abused children, specifically, is still implying that there was once a world in which CSA did not exist, which society must return to, and which Certain Types Of People have caused society to stray from in the first place.

these problems are systemic. that's like the whole idea behind all progressive and leftist ideology. come on.

you know who’s gay? paul the real estate novelist who never had time for a wife and davey who’s still in the navy and probably will be for life

[mooncustafer]

New headcannon: everyone in that song is gay except the Piano Man who has no idea he’s playing at a gay bar and the staff and regulars have a betting pool on how long he’ll take to finally figure it out. So far John is ahead.

[skeleton-richard]

[spacegay-yx]

[freshdonuts]

“The manager gives me a smile ‘cause he knows that it’s me they’ve been coming to see” also implies that the Piano Man is possibly an incredibly attractive but oblivious himbo, and if you listen to the rest of it imagining that, this all fits a little too well.

[spacedandelions]

this makes too much sense. Also, the full quote is “Now John at the bar is a friend of mine. He gets me my drinks for free. And he’s quick with a joke or to light up your smoke. But there’s someplace that he’d rather be” Yes, your bed, he wants to be on your bed honey, that’s not a joke, he is flirting with you.

[madgastronomer]

Lighting another man’s cigarette is some old-school gay cruising.

[dikdikpronouncedxylophone]

Billy Joel actually addressed this interpretation!

[prismatic-bell]

For those who can’t read the screenshot, the TL;dr is “well, THAT was unintentional, but I see where people are getting it from.”

So: Billy Joel-approved interpretation 😃

[givemeunicorns]

Okay so yes we need to put more money into education in the US but y'all this SPECIFIC line of thinking has much less to do with public education and everything to do with the evangelical war on science. This exact “earth age” rhetoric isn’t the result of dumb people, its being taught in Christian schools and touted in evangelical churches. Evangelical lobbies help pass laws that force states to teach creationism alongside evolution. Millions are spent every year by evangelical institutions to convince partitions that science is lying to them, to force them to belive the only place they can find truth is the church. Creationism is just another facet of that and acting like it just “Americans are dumb” rather than a pointed, purposeful campaign to keep people in a what amounts to a cult, is not oy disingenuous, its dangerous

[phoenixwrites]

Thank you, Uni.

[steven-the-slime-deactivated202]

Yeah as someone who was taught the earth was 6000 years old and believed it until I was like, 22: its a cultish weird thing you get shoved into your hea from a VERY young age. We had sunday school classes about how evolution was wrong when I was growing up; and about how feminism and even egaltarianism was wrong as well. Brainwashing doesn’t skip over you based on whether or not you are “smart”. 

[musings-of-a-prodigal]

Brainwashing doesn’t skip over you based on whether or not you are “smart.”

[crystal-gems-stuff]

That’s so weird cause in Catholic church we’re told the earth is thousands of centuries old

[emkini]

Speaking as someone who was raised evangelical, yeah this is just what’s in our schoolbooks. We had dedicated children’s radio programs (Jonathan Park, Adventures in Odyssey, etc, etc) made to teach us creationism and quite literally demonize evolution. I have science books at home that teach creationism. The very SUGGESTION that evolution could have some merit will make you pariah in many evangelical churches. This isn’t stupidity, this is a cult mentality which is so incredibly prevalent in the United States that I find it insane some people Don’t Know about it. Have some compassion for the huge amount of the population that has been raised in a religion which goes to extreme lengths to teach them that evolution is wrong not only factually, but morally.
