"Working in Film must be so glamorous!" OK but one time we were filming at a small neolithic stone circle, right next to a commune full of hippies and neopagans with trust funds, and the neopagans were like, crack on lads, film what you gotta film, we'll just hang back and let you do your thing, only probably in a Surrey accent, and everything was going great and smooth, and then on the last day of filming the Locations Scout, who we'll call Keith, turned up to set with a fancy chicken in a cat carrier, and when I say fancy chicken, I mean an actual Fancy Chicken, the fanciest fucking chicken you've ever seen, with iridescent wings like mother of pearl dipped in ebony and a wattle that just wouldn't quit, like an actual prize winning pedigree chicken, and everyone was like, Keith, why the fuck do you have a Fancy Chicken, and Keith was like, my housemate is away, and he loves this chicken more than life itself because it is a celebrity chicken, and therefore it is very high maintenance so leaving it at home for my 13 hour workday was not an option, and everyone just sort of shrugged and said, cool, that's fucking weird, but you do you, Keith, and so they continued on with their day, did some filming, had some lunch, and periodically Keith would pause to let the chicken have a very tightly monitored wander and some delicious food, and all was well until they wrapped for the day and Keith was like, guys, has anyone seen the chicken, and everyone was like, oh fuck, no, we actually haven't, and Keith started to panic and he was like, oh fuck, my housemate is going to kill me, that chicken is literally famous in chicken show circles, it's basically the Kate Moss of chickens, we have to find the fucking chicken, and so they hunted under every nook and cranny, but all in vain, until someone had the bright idea of asking the hippies, so they went over to the nearest culturally appropriative structure and they were like, have you seen this chicken, and the hippies were like, no, sorry, but that's a sweet chicken, and Keith was like yeah, I know, hence why I'm stressed up to my fucking eyeballs trying to find this sodding chicken, and then finally one of the hippies was like... uh, yes, I have in fact seen that chicken, but I don't think you're going to like what I have to tell you next about the chicken, and Keith was like, you have to tell me about the fucking chicken right now, and anyway, long story short, one of the neopagans had apparently come across this luxurious chicken having a rest in its carrier, and had erroneously believed that this was some form of Locations gratuity, a gift from the production company as a form of payment to the neopagans for staying away from the filming, and this person had subsequently helped himself to the chicken and had then proceeded to ritually sacrifice it on the small neolithic stone circle

So, you know, not always that glamorous really

what "no sugar added" should mean: the natural sugars of the other ingredients like fruit are the only source of sweetness in this product

what is actually means: we added a fuckton of artificial sweeteners

We really do need to bring back the word "trolling" and warning ppl not to feed the trolls

shamebats

That TikTok of ppl pouring tomato sauce directly on the counter, adding spaghetti & mixing it with their hands while commenting how great of an idea it is? Yeah, we used to call that trolling, it's pathetic & bc all they want from it is attention, the best thing is not to give them any. Block & move on.

I keep seeing it on here too. Someone comments something outrageous on a post & gets dozens of ppl to respond, filling the entire comment section & making it unusable. And on Instagram, a comment saying "I hate colors" on a post of someone showing off colorful art gets 100 replies while positive comments get none. Congrats, you've fed the troll. Now stop doing it.

shamebats

Trolling used to get you banned from forums. Now they call you an influencer and give you brand deals & ad revenue. That's why it's more important than ever not to feed the trolls, especially in spaces where any attention is good attention and getting yelled at by 10k ppl in the comments counts as "engagement", boosting your troll post in the algorithm.

Booktok controversy that's broken containment: a writer told one of her friends the concept for a book, and he took that concept and AI-generated a book based on it and then gifted to her like 'there you go, sweetie, you're welcome ;)'

BRO WHAT.

azzandra

OMG, I'm watching a video about this, and it's even weirder. That wasn't even a friend, it was a rando who saw her tiktok talking about the concept and randomly emails her this AI-generated book. That's even weirder.

cat-she

And then when she says she doesn't like it, and several NYT BESTSELLING AUTHORS who all happen to be women all explain to him why he's in the wrong, he talks down to them and doubles and triples and quadruples down. But then the moment the woman's husband gets involved, he immediately apologizes to "him and his wife." Just breathtaking levels of misogyny.

azzandra

He wanted credit SO HARD for doing basically NOTHING. Worse than nothing! He wanted headpats so hard that when she ignored his email he hounded her to respond publicly.

He's like a microcosm of everything that's wrong with people who use AI to generate stories.

cat-she

He was talking about releasing the shit he generated with the idea he STOLE FROM HER for free if she continued not responding to him, and then acted like she was being insane when she clarified that she didn't respond on purpose 😭😭😭 What goes through these people's heads!!!!!!!!!

azzandra

Something profoundly wrong with this dude and yet he's incapable of noticing.

a number of years ago when I was at Boy Scout Camp, someone shared this bit of trivia. Within days, it had become a competition, the entire camp overrun by elbow licking. See, the thing about it is, if you're aware of the licker, you can feel it. But if you don't know someone is doing it, you legitimately cannot feel the lick. So for the rest of the week, you'd spot kids sneaking up on each other, attempting to lick elbows unnoticed. It was wild.

karis-the-fangirl

When my younger siblings were still 11 and 8, our family stayed in a couple of cabins with four other families who had kids in the same age group. So there were a dozen or so kids running around living their best feral lives, and licking elbows became The Activity—double prestige if you licked an adult’s elbow.

So that’s why a bunch of parents rubbed jalapeño juice on their elbows

…and why our family still says ‘these elbows are spicy!! You have to sniff them first!’

hot take in a roundabout way i think that's also why so many of us opt out of becoming parents ourselves

Does anybody know how to fix it

rosslynpaladin

Start disappointing people and not backing out of it when they are upset, reject feeling ashamed of everything including of yourself, start saying No to things you do not want to do not just things you're scared of, do more of those things you're scared of but wish you could do, make your own plans and execute them, decide to do or not do something without basing it on who will Dislike it.

Free Will takes practice, and the chance of making someone somewhere Slightly or even Very Disappointed In You. But you're an adult and you can't be made to stand in a corner anymore.

american blackbirds are icterids but european blackbirds are thrushes but american robins are thrushes but european robins are flycatchers and they are named robin because (checks notes) brits in the 1400s called them "robert" on account of they are just some familiar guy who shows up in your yard. hold on post canceled is that really why they are called that? what the fuck. they did this with jackdaws and magpies too? i can't even be annoyed. how human. "who's that? that's bob." fuck dude it sure is.
