along the lines of the "when it happens" vagueposts, what song do you think will suddenly blaze to the top of the charts?
will it be something like Bye, Bye, Bye from n'sync?
will it be an old classic like Hit the Road Jack or Another One Bites the Dust?
maybe something harder, like Hell Awaits by Slayer?
my current fave, although it's not lyrically thematic, is the CeeLo Green hit, Fuck You. Love to see that charting for months.
Can everyone who makes video content do a Deaf bitch a favor? Watch your shit with the captions on and the sound off, and then do another round of editing to fix things including but not limited to:
Captions cover the spot on the screen you put the information I need
The dialogue is captioned but not the song you have playing that the dialogue is responding to
You only captioned the person on the screen, not the person off screen who is also talking
No captioning of critical sound effects (alarms, bells, dogs barking, etc)
Speakers are not labelled at moments where it is not clear on the screen who is talking.
Captions cover the spot on the screen that you put the information I need!
Other d/Deaf people welcome to add.
This post brought to you by the fifth video tutorial I could not follow because the bad, auto-generated captions covered what I was trying to watch today.

reblogging one of my most underrated posts: the dying dog test
Squatters' rights apply to grandmas. If someone's not visiting and looking after their grandma, but you will, after a set amount of time once you've settled in, that's your grandma now.
Someone tried to do that with my grandma once. The guy tried to become her kid so they could inherit the house and money.
My grandma people pleases in a way where she lies all the time, so it was really hard to figure out whether or not she wanted to be in that situation, but after she was started to disown my mom (who would travel a couple hours every week to see her) we started fighting the guy. We’re now in a legal battle because he’s been using some sort of squatter’s/tenet’s rights to keep her house, and has had access to the grandma credit card(cuz she just let him borrow it). And my people pleasing grandma is now staying with us, and says she seething hates the guy.
Idk who needs to hear this, but this is your reminder to go clear out unwanted squatters from your grandma.
I have, apparently, great taste. I deduce this because everything I think would look great in my house costs a million bucks. Which has really ruined a lot of these cottagecore influencer videos for me, because I'll watch a few seconds and be like, "Ah. Your decorating secret is that you're rich."
Your row of Le Creuset enamel pots. Your Portuguese tile backsplash. Your Polish painted ceramic plates on the wall. Your linen tablecloth. Your cute retro stove worth as much as every major appliance I own put together. Probably more, actually.
I once began watching a video about "how to turn your yard into a native flower garden" and next thing I knew, the entire front yard had been cleared, by gnomes one can only imagine, and dozens upon dozens of plants in gallon pots were being laid out according to a chart. Each pot worth anywhere between $12 and $80, depending on contents, but almost never less than that. Filled me with rage.
If I was rich, I wouldn't need your advice to make my house cute. And since I'm not rich, I also don't need your advice.
Yeah quiet quitting is great and all but have you tried chaotic working?
Like. I remember back in my grocery store cashier days I did so much crazy shit.
When WIC (Women, infants, and children voucher program to help low income mothers/families with children) people were in my line I would pretty much know who they were. Before the cards they had to tell us upfront they were WIC and show us their vouchers for what they were allowed to get (it was awful some times. Like. 2 gallons of milk. $4 worth of vegetables etc etc). They’d always have items hanging back, waiting to see what the total was and if they would have to take it off the belt.
I began to place the fruits/vegetables a certain way on the register scale so that like 1/2lbs of grapes read as like .28lbs or something. Then act shocked when I said that they still had X amount of lbs left. They got all their fruit and vegetables.
I think it started to kinda? Catch on to the women? Because I would have the same moms in my line month after month. And even after they switched to the cards (they worked like food stamp cards?) I’d still do the same thing. They were able to get more produce for whatever shitty max amount Indiana gave them.
Anyways. Be chaotic. It’s more fun that way.
Interesting how eg automated ticket barriers and self checkouts work to narrow the scope for this kind of solidarity
whenever I tell a story I feel like Uncle Colm from Derry Girls
the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

do not forget the patron saint of these weeks that we celebrate ourselves proudly and openly in the streets
her name was Marsha P Johnson, and we have her to thank for so much.
remember, the first Pride was a riot, and she was one of the brave souls who endured it to help carve the path which so many of us walk today. she helped found several activist groups regarding LGBT safety and wellbeing. and she was absolutely radiant, too.
thank you, Marsha. we remember you.
