“Why don’t you use ai” idk man beyond the obvious environmental and “this machine causes psychosis and encourages people to kill themselves” thing I think asking the equivalent of a solid D student who is also a pathological liar if they can answer my question/do the work for me seems pretty fucking stupid

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

ur a bit obnoxious (affectionate)

I'm tired can somebody please come explain why this is absolutely not a thing that scans as affectionate when coming from a faceless stranger

Thinking really hard about Ianthe. She convinced her one-sided lesbian situationship to give her a new arm after she got dismembered by a saint. She and her twin sister love to dip their toes into incest sometimes but not in ways you’d expect. She also uses her magic to make herself look sickly so her sister can breast boobily. She and Jesus might be fucking but neither of them probably enjoys it. She voluntarily wore a maid dress in a game show inside her own mind. I hate her. She’s awesome. What is wrong with her.

walking a mile in the shoes of someone you dislike is actually kinda awesome because not only are you now a mile away from that idiot but you also have their shoes

I love that trope you see in some podcasts where the narrator has a very obvious seething hatred of one of the people or organisations that they regularly talk about and is just. So comically uncharitable in their reporting about them. And you don't learn why for ages if at all, they just Fucking Hate Them. I love Cecil and Steve Carlsberg. I love Dr Harley and the Botany department. I love petty but overwhelming malice in the hands of a biased reporter.

It's pride month so I'll allow myself to express one opinion on the internet :

There are no "exact color" of pride flags.

I see more and more sites and posts talking about the exact hex codes for the lesbian flag, or the right purple for the ace one, and how it should be more or less saturated and I just want to say: pride flags were meant to be sewn in your kitchen. To be spraypainted and to be recognised.

There are no "exact colors" of pride flags because you should do them with what you have ! Nobody should care if you use a crimson red instead of a cherry red or whatever ! Be free ! wave your colors ! The colors you have !

One thing about Van Gogh that people don't talk about is how brilliantly he uses texture in his artwork. The way he uses oil paint is so three dimensional, and he's so aware of it and uses it to his full advantage to add depth and texture. It's not as obvious in photographs or digital versions of his paintings, which is a damn shame because once you see them in person you realize how much it adds to them. There's one in the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam called The Sower with a tree cutting through the foreground, and the majority of the trunk is one flat stroke of paint, ending with a knot in the trunk made bulbous by the end of a brush stroke that was never smoothed out. One of his paintings in the Met, Wheat Field With Cypresses, has the brush strokes very choppy on the top of the wheat, but smooth and almost textureless on the stalks. It's one of the things that I think really separates him from the other artists of the period.

"calypso delivers a monologue about the unfair double standard applied to gods vs. goddesses when it comes to slutting around with mortals" really does sound like a scene someone would insert into an odyssey adaptation to make it more woke and "odysseus grabs a branch to cover his dick so he doesn't scare off the teenage girls he's about to stumble on naked" really does sound like a scene someone would insert into an annoyingly modernized odyssey adaptation that would get criticized for marvelesque humor. but beautifully and happily these are both things that simply factually happen in actual homer's* actual the odyssey

*famously a highly contested phrase

the fact is that while it is true that in “a muppet christmas carol” kermit and piggy’s characters’ children are green boy frogs and pink girl pigs, like their parents, in “muppets take manhattan” it is made explicitly clear that piggy’s ideal concept of their children is pink frogs and green pigs

this is EXACTLY what i’m saying. Great insight

Hades 1 is a Roguelike only from Zag's perspective. Persephone is playing some sort of cozy sandbox game (minecraft), Hades is playing a management sim, Than/meg is playing a dating sim

dude this is the playful rudeness website, the fact that it's on this website is the social cue indicating that it's joking

nope 👎

[batmanisagatewaydrug]

actually if I can complain for a minute I think it's so rancid when people are like "uuuh what did you expect from the rudeness website lmaooo" or "uwu it's the piss on the poor website you can't expect anyone to actually read what you said" or "this is literallyyy the autism website" like okay??? your personal perception of tumblr dot com doesn't actually mean people can just speak to each other any which way and expect to never receive any pushback for being a rude ass bitch. christ. get some house training.
