Weird Is Good

The title says it all! I'm a multi-fandom and (personal) humour blog with a dash of seriousness. I like shows and games more for the characters than the story itself. If you find anything offensive in my blog, please let me know! My pronouns are he/him.

That phrase means absolutely nothing. Not a goddamn thing. "History will judge them." Just like thoughts & prayers, it doesn't do anything to help.

trying to play peekaboo with my child but he's a European diplomat:

me: where'd daddy go?

baby: we must articulate a post-daddy vision of strategic autonomy

me: peekaboo!

baby: my historic relationship with my father is stable despite recent troubles

In 2026, the chicest thing a gay actor can do is never explicitly come out as gay but also make it abundantly clear that he is. Coming out is too modern. Staying closeted is too old fashioned. But this method merges contemporary freedom with Old Hollywood glamour and allure, and it weeds out the dumbest people who truly don’t get it. I call it the Pascal Method.

You clearly don't go here or to queer history and signaling, or both, enough to have this conversation and I'm not going to explain it to you. You could have asked questions, you could have done even a modicum of research. You didn't and you made yourself look ignorant. Goodbye.

every spellcheck algorithm when you type a non-english name: uh oh! that's a typo! let me go ahead and fix that for you

[molsno]

does anyone else remember when google's facial recognition algorithm tagged a photo of black people as gorillas? racism is so often built into the technology we use every day and it's absolutely disgusting. and it doesn't have to be this way! it would be so easily avoidable! but the tech industry doesn't care. the tools built by the tech industry reflect all of the biases of the people who develop them, and they are most often built by people who don't consider non-white people with non-english names important enough to spend any additional development time to account for them

[molsno]

and y'know on top of that, these decisions reflect US cultural hegemony! just earlier, I tried implementing spellchecking in my program, and no matter what I tried, I could not get it to stop flagging the vast majority of non-english names as "errors". here's the readme for the library I tried to use:

it makes such a big deal about how inclusive they want this list to be. so, where did they get the majority of these names?

US census data

the tech industry by and large does not consider anyone living outside of the united states to be people. I even checked, and the difference between the final list and the file us-census.txt is only a few hundred names. and sure, this is just one spelling library, but it's one with over a million weekly downloads on npm and over 27,000 dependents on github. I guarantee that several of the websites and programs you use every day depend on this library for spellchecking, and whoever wrote this library decided that a list of names of people living in the united states is "good enough". it's maddening!

I explained the episode where cas gets conversion therapied into killing dean only for Dean to be able to break the brainwashing by saying “I need you” on his knees, and it really does sound. So absurd when you say it out loud

[saintemiliosandoz]

Me: so the episode starts with cas and Dean fighting, and Cas killing Dean and you’re like. What the fuck. And then the camera pans out and you just see hundreds of Dean bodies around him

Her: was it only Dean?

Me: yes it was only Dean

I'd try one now, if it comes in pink.
