“sparkling water” sounds… so pure. so aesthetically pleasing. but in actuality? it is…. Repulsive

My wife told me they used to have the lyrics and all the references of "American Pie" by Don McLean memorized, and then I said "American Pie is just Homestuck for the 1970s" and they said they were going to stop telling me things.

Friendly unfriendly reminder that "Ovulation is like an animal being in heat and makes you stupid" has been a keystone of western misogyny pretty much since Europe worked out what periods are.

[dragon-in-a-fez]

personally I'm annoyed by the socioeconomic conditions that made words like "unalive" necessary but simultaneously impressed by the linguistic adaptations young people have made to continue talking about important things while subject to those conditions and I think if you can't hold both of those thoughts in your head you might just be old man yelling at cloud

I think that part of what irks me about AI being used even for "small" stuff like meme graphics (aside from all the larger problems obviously) is like.... the time spent on it was part of the humor. "this is a silly inconsequential joke but I had to stop everything and spend 5 minutes making it" was, at least for me, part of the joke. Someone really took time out of their day to make me look at something silly they took time out of their day to make. Now it's like someone took time out of my day to make me look at something no one even made. Stop wasting my time if you aren't wasting yours too.

The reason your snacks are unsatisfying is that you need both carb and protein.

Carb starts your engine, protein keeps it going.

No carb, engine don’t start. No protein, engine dies out fast.

[what-even-is-thiss]

Easy carb add on:

Cookie

Fruit (canned or fresh)

Chips

Piece of bread

Popcorn

Crackers

Easy protein add on:

Nuts

Spoonful of nut butter

Cheese

Roasted chickpea snacks

Glass of milk (dairy or non dairy)

Small canned sausages or similar

[what-even-is-thiss]

Sugar in there.

[what-even-is-thiss]

I am pleased by people messaging me telling me that after adding a carb or protein to their snacks or meals they feel more satisfied all day. Yes, my plan is working. People are getting through their days with less hangry.

I’m sick and tired of found families we need more found toxic workplace environments

[shewakessupwiththesun]

I actually have found the concept of the workplace comedies with found family trope quite disturbing for a while.

It's not like I don't enjoy these shows. I do. But when I actually stop and deep it for a second there is something so ominous about your found family and your life centring around the workplace in the way it does in these shows, of which there are an abundance of.

I'm not saying you can't enjoy the people you work with or like your job, but it's the tying the centre of you world to your workplace that makes me uncomfortable. I know they're shows and are likely a little unrealistic, but I think it gives false idea and encouragement to the fact that people might find their entire worth within a corporate environment.

I do think you see this more with US comedies too. Not to do the classic comparison of the UK vs US versions of the office, and this isn't about which I necessarily think is better, but while the US version of the show does have more emotional pull and is more wholesome, the characters lives are more tied to the workplace than those in the UK version of the show, who frankly are bored and more detached from the place in which they work.

i fucking love when halloween music is just surf rock with a ghoul laughing in the background

[glorious-spoon]

honestly i think the selling point of romance for me (and where it usually fails to land) is 'can i imagine these people sharing an in-joke'

like, are they in cahoots. can they laugh together. do they have a similar enough or at least complementary enough outlook that they can connect over something being funny (even if it's funny in a fucked up way! sometimes those are the best in-jokes!)

that's not necessarily true love in and of itself, but it does feel like an essential component to me

[rosegardeninwinter]

peeta: yeah I might as well admit I have a crush on this girl

katniss: I can’t believe he just asked for my hand in marriage doesn’t he know we have murder tomorrow?
