The funniest thing about going to school in a really white area is that we all have such common names that we can't find each other. All of my friends were named after the 12 apostles with surnames like "Jones" and "Smith" and I'm no better 😭

I did not expect the Vatican to go this hard into the Butlerian Jihad so early on…

Adding a femboy mad scientist who is a Flynn Rider stan to the Rapunzel universe was such a peak choice

Cool, my son goes to a sushi place and orders sushi He's eleven

Does he think none of us ever worked as waitstaff who absolutely fucking know that people order milk?

yes, absolutely, sir. extremely based. tremendous parenting.

STOP THE PRESSES

It fits y'all 🔥 13 kilos down

I think about this sometimes but I've heard people say "Little girls shouldn't be made to wear hijab, they're just children". I have another perspective as a girl mum though and that's just try to stop a kid from emulating her mum. No matter what I wear my kid wants one too.

Good game Japan. Still love you Tillies 🥺

Hands up if you were there for the original Vin Diesel thread in GBS? I still remember what my post was 🤭 It should have stayed Vin Diesel. Fuck Chuck Norris.

The weirdest part of popular culture right now is when someone says to you someone like Chuck Norris died, and instead of saying "Oh, how sad" you say "Was he racist?" (yes and MAGA and friends with Netanyahu)

Ok but I can't be the only geek as a teenager who before I went out somewhere would spray my hoodie with whatever scent I was wearing in case I got the chance to give it to a cute girl who was cold, right?

Could not ask for a more pleasing response from a beta reader 🥰

I had one "This phrasing sounds a bit awkward" and one "Oh, I love this phrasing!" for the same part hahah

Tell u wot, having stuff beta read is actually a lot of work! Gotta make a separate document for each one if they don't know each other, then go through and compare comments and make decisions about conflicting advice, make changes back in your original document.

We often just yell "Peace!" when we're leaving (for some reason). On his way out the door this morning my bf said "Peace in the Middle East!" then paused, came back and said "This is how we all have to say goodbye to each other from now on"

When we were going through our metoo event we were showered with support. It did not stop hundreds of death and rape threats pouring in, drowning out everything. People are so stupid and naive if they think support somehow cancels out abuse.

I spent a year under investigation by a professional society in part for tweets about my rapist (that another man was certain were about him) You all have no idea how dangerous things are for survivors of gender discrimination and sexual misconduct, even when we have not named our abuser

I had an ADHD joke but I forgot what it was. Oh, and I had an ADHD joke but I forgot what it was.

I have a fibromyalgia joke but it's a bit of a pain

I had an osteopenia joke but I cracked under the pressure

People keep saying “oh so you want OPEN BORDERS” as some kind of gotcha and like. Yeah. When I was a kid you could just drive into Canada. On accident, even. It was great, and I think we should do that instead of kidnapping children. Normalize being normal instead of being kidnapping weirdos

THIS SOUNDS LIKE A JOKE BUT IT'S TRUE. IT'S VERY STRANGE.

no sorry, we are NOT doing silent hill revisionism the real actual reason behind this "thoughtful change" was bc Christophe Gans thought that a man caring for his daughter to the point of risking his life was too gay and unrealistic so he ended up creating the mom as a replacement.

I’m not anyone you should look to for parenting advice but I really believe that if you want young people to be able to have good boundaries + speak up for themselves they need to be able to practice that on the adults in their home first and always.

My irregular disclaimer that I’m not generally one for posting about the clusterfuck that is the modern world, not because I’m not aware of how fucked to everything is but because there are plenty of more educated & eloquent people already doing this Anyway, back to the bullshit…

Ugh Grammarly uses LLMs now? I swear it was previously fine wasn't it? What do people use to check their punctuation in their writing nowadays? Years of stream of consciousness shit posting have melted my brain.

I just had insomnia, I was SO dramatic

I'm sure one day someone will light me up for not saying more than I do about the things that are happening in the world. But I am a stupid idiot. I don't believe in just adding to noise for the sake of having said something about a topic. I'd rather share what smarter people are saying.

the devil went down on georgia

Nobody will ever know how much I make myself laugh out loud at my stupid skeets every single day I'm on this earth

And funnily enough, he IS a big wheel down at the cracker factory!

Change the vibe of a song or band by slightly changing one word. I'll start: Chilling In The Name Of. ... .. . By Sage Against The Machine

I mean this is the guy who said nobody was introspective 400 years ago. 400 years ago. Hrm. What happened around 400 years ago? Something... enlightening?

One of the first times my bf and I slept together, many many years ago I rolled over the next morning, looking at his pretty face in the morning sunlight. His eyelids fluttered open and I said "Good morning, baby." He smiled at me and said "Good morning, you shitcunt." That's how I knew we'd last.

I just looked it up, it’s 19 homes per person ~15 million vacant homes ~0.7 million unhoused

capitalism will never end poverty/hunger/homelessness because it benefits from threatening workers with those to keep them in line we could end homelessness in the US with only 5% of vacant homes

The world would not be where it is right now if y'all hadn't collectively decided that glomping was cringe.

I know that Australianisms don't break containment much, but one I'm always surprised never got picked up by the kids is "cut sick". It's such a great expression. It basically just means to completely lose it, either out of anger or unrestrained fun. To go wild, basically.

Its wild how NT people will choose EVERY insane explanation for autism before accepting its just genetic Like -Tylenol -Circumcision -Vaccines -Neglectful mothers -Smothering mothers -Gestational hypertension Are all more acceptable than "Damn dad DID only eat polenta every day for 30yrs..."

sometimes I wonder why everyone on here is so on edge all the time and then I remember that we are all living with a constant stream of horrors going by too fast for any of us to process
