Really love the idea of a citizen’s group just putting out benches and such.

The removal of benches and trash cans in public places has always struck me as one of those obvious “we are moving in the wrong direction” things, especially for anyone with mobility issues. Not everyone can just stand for 15 minutes waiting on the bus, neh?

[queeranarchism]

& homeless people need those benches. Sleeping on a cold wet floor is potentially life threatening. This is about more than pestering homeless people (which is cruel enough as it is), it is about taking away the necessities of life.

The dog has one of the Great Old Ones reassuring him with pats and treats tho. If the King in Yellow had played with u and fed u for ur entire life and let you sleep in his berth of unspeakable blackness at night, and then hugged you reassuringly when Cthulhu rose from the depths, you might be able to handle it better too

Seinfeld episode where George can't decide whether to stay with a woman who gives amazing strap game but keeps slapping his bald head while they fuck. Meanwhile Jerry and Newman realize they've been in the same polycule for months without realizing and are now getting into lovers spats. Elaine starts an Onlyfans but realizes the only people subscribing are doing so because they are antiquers and her furniture is so old they are marvelling at it and trying to guess each items value. Kramer becomes a twitch streamer, but somehow accidentally sets off a twitch notification noise for every single thing that can happen in his apartment.

[snailandwellmet]

The George plot ends, btw, with him breaking it off with her, getting in bed with someone new strapping him, and he tells Jerry the next day that he didn't finish until she accidentally slapped his head during sex trying to kill a mosquito.

And that revelation is the end of the episode and its never brought up again

[snailandwellmet]

Jerry and Newman's spats get so bad that every other member of the polycule breaks up with them, and this depresses them so much they hesitantly embrace, which is sweet at first, until they begin critiquing each others hug techniques. They both storm off in a huff, resetting for future episodes.

Elaine spends the episode dealing with her pride, upset no one cares about her in her photos. That is until someone tips $1000.00 to get her to pose on her coffee table. She, finally seeing the profit potential in her old furniture, takes a series of photos, specifically with her furniture being the focus of the shots. This, unfortunately, shows the drink on her coffee table not resting on a coaster, and she gets cancelled.

Kramer gets swatted by a 10 year old he banned from his chat but the swat team get accidentally home aloned by the weird set up Kramer has in his place.

[mangonetics]

had a dream (more like a prophetic vision) that there was a terminally ill youtuber who recorded a few months of content ahead of time to release after they died where they would occasionally casually reference the fact that they are dead, including a video talking about their actual real death complete with pictures. whole thing is kept cool and casual, no mourning or sadness just the usual "hey guys! guess who died today 🤪" stuff.

they managed to get early copies of some upcoming video games so they could post timely reviews and everything, still keeping up the whole "actually died recently" bit. they were still just like normal ass reviews, sometimes they'd drop a "wow this game is so bad I'm glad I died three weeks ago" or some similar joke.

the channel became super popular after he died and "deadtubing" became a trend but there was a huge scandal when one of the most popular deadtubers was revealed as actually being alive.

My friend you are not so much knocking on the Devil's door as directly Facetiming the bastard

I do genuinely believe that the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (and arguably the Zelda franchise as a whole, though i myself have played literally none of these games) is closer to fitting the description of ‘Tolkien-esque Fantasy’ than most other movies/shows/games/books etc that claim that label

Like, compare this post by tumblr user wufflesvetinari, which makes an important point about Tolkien’s worldbuilding, and also lives in my head rent free:

and then these quotes from Jacob Geller’s “Every Zelda is the Darkest Zelda”

and his conclusions about the messages in Zelda games are thematically very similar to the through-lines about friendship and love in LOTR, and what a lot of authors miss about what makes a fantasy story personal and memorable:

“A world without joy and humor isn’t a compelling world to fight for” is exactly why there are so many pieces of fantasy media out there that just feel like carbon copies of each other (i’ve seen many posts that explain this better than I can though I can’t find any specific ones at the moment, just know that I didn’t invent this thesis). You’ve got the cool swords, you’ve got the wizards and the spells and the battles, but first and foremost you need the LOVE.

Hairdresser: We’re going to have to use a color remover to take out the blue pigment, then apply more pigment to allow for the proteins in the hair to adhere to it. Then possibly mix three different types of toners to reach the goal of your natural hair color.

Hairdresser: pretty simple

Me: this is chemistry

Hairdresser: yeah, but people don’t like when we talk that way

[trashfirefallon-deactivated2019]

Hairdresser: so you’re a mortician?

Me: apprentice

Hairdresser: do you know why formaldehyde is used in clothing?

Me: I didn’t know that was a thing

Hairdresser: I think it’s due to the preserving qualities? But I don’t think that’s right.

Me: It’s not just a preservative, it’s also a disinfectant ‘cause it destroys bacteria as well as their food supply. It’s also a dehydrator. 

Hairdresser: why not just use alcohol?

Me: good question. Formaldehyde is super cheap, so probably to cut costs

Hairdresser: is it really a carcinogen? 

Me: yeah, I’m going to have so much cancer

[trashfirefallon-deactivated2019]

Hairdresser: so you’re going natural to work at a funeral home?

Me: yeah

Hairdresser: while still in school?

Me: well we work in the funeral homes so we have uuuuh … experience with cases

Hairdresser: you can just say bodies it’s fine 

Me: oh thank god

[trashfirefallon-deactivated2019]

Five Minutes Later

Me: yeah so we don’t do autopsies it’s one of my pet peeves

Hairdresser: what if someone wakes up while you’re embalming them?

Me: there’s a huge difference between a living body and a dead one

second hairdresser: I think we should add more toner, but yeah I think rigor mortis would make it pretty obvious

Me: that and being in a fridge for a few days you will be dead by the time you get to us

Hairdresser: I think pumping them full of a carcinogen would help with that

[thisurlwasnttakenbutnowitis]

“There is a copy of the NES game Golf in the firmware of every Switch system”

Me: Oh haha, what a weird thing, probably some remnant from the debugging process -

“Since that was a game that Satoru Iwata programmed himself, this could have been intended as a way of saying that Iwata is spiritually a part of every Switch and is watching over and protecting every system.”

Me:

[thisurlwasnttakenbutnowitis]

Oh my God, so hackers have found out the way to enable you to play the game. You know how?

On July 11th*, the date of Iwata’s passing, doing Iwata’s “directly to you” motion with the Joy-Cons on the home screen will play a sound clip of Iwata and launch the game.

(* Before you try this yourself, note that simply changing the date on your system will not work, as this runs off the Switch’s internal internet-synced clock, meaning that changing the date manually will only work if the system has never been connected to the internet)

I… I can’t…

[lunarhalo24]

It goes even further than that.

Firstly, opening the game like this person is in the video is only possible with a brand new unit on system version 1.0.0 that has never been connected to the Internet. Because of this, opening it is pretty hard to replicate, unless if you have a completely brand new Switch. So, even if the system’s internal date is on July 11, it still won’t open if the system version is up to date.

The thing is, it’s not supposed to be opened.

The hidden Golf game has been described as an omamori, which, in Japanese culture, is a charm usually bought at shrines that offers spiritual protection and good luck if you keep it close to you. Sometimes they’re made of cloth, and look like a tiny bag, which can contain a written prayer. People often tie them to something like a purse or a backpack, so that it’s always with them. Here are a bunch of different ones:

Omamori are not supposed to be opened, as doing so is said to remove its blessing.

Seeing as the hidden Golf game on the Switch is so difficult to run under normal circumstances, it’s probably not supposed to be opened in the first place. It’s likely meant to represent an omamori in Iwata’s honor. Its very fitting, because of how portable the Switch is, since people are likely to take it with them like they would with an omamori strapped to a purse or backpack.

[thisurlwasnttakenbutnowitis]

Hey, everyone. Since we’re now in July and this post is still making the rounds, I’m sure there are people who are going to want to try to activate the Golf game on their Switch on the 11th. So I wanted to provide an update to this:

All of the files of Golf in the Switch system were removed in an update back in late December.

As @lunarhalo24 helpfully pointed out, this inclusion of Golf in the Switch system was meant to be an omamori, a blessing from Iwata. And there’s another important cultural thing about omamori to note here:

An omamori’s blessing is only good until the end of the year, after which it expires and the omamori is traditionally disposed of in a sacred fire. So the files being deleted at the end of last year seems as though it was symbolic of the blessing’s time expiring.

So yes, there is now almost no way to actually access it. Because it was never meant to be accessed.

[diversegaminglists]

Reblogging because this is a really interesting way of combining tradition and technology in someone’s memory and as a good luck charm.

You can read more about the different kinds of omamori here.

[warlock-pan-astronaut]

Well, since it’s Tony Stark vs Bruce Wayne, that means that they are not fighting as superheroes. And let’s be honest, Tony doesn’t have a lot of hand-to-hand combat experience and Bruce is built like a house.

[tacticaltaxonomist]

Tony is missing ribs ok, probably some lung capacity. If he’d still got the reactor he’d be double fucked. Bruce would go straight for the chest.

Not to mention that Bruce is a guy who fights with his body. Not a mech.
