warming up with the babygirl sketch #REBHfun #ResidentEvilRequiem #LeonKennedy #sketch

the funniest type of slowburn is when the characters are having sex the whole time

I’d add words of wisdom from my stepmother—“A hobby is something you spend money on. If you make money on it, it’s a job and you’ll eventually need a new hobby.”

Lili Reinhart being Olive in the love hypothesis is the perfect bland, insipid casting for that bland, insipid book Have to appreciate that they picked a blonde instead of a brunette though because the book pretending it was anything but Ali/Adam self insert fanfic in the first place was laughable

She is very lonely

something something everyone holds unconscious biases and pretending like the only way to be bigoted is to be violent about it erases the most common forms of bigotry

Mobei Jun, your tastes are... questionable. Loosely based on a true story. #svsss #moshang

You'll die full of ideas. If I threw myself 100% into just executing the stuff in my notebooks NOW, I'd never get through them in the 20-odd years I have left. Ideas are just boxes to hold the emotions you're trying to magically convey from your brain into strangers' brains.

‘shipping ruins your ability to analyze this character' maybe for your little pea brain, but my massive, hulking cranium can house both character analysis and fanart of this guy getting spit roasted

scum villain is watching sqq do things that turn luo binghe's gigantic laserfocused fixation onto sqq and sqq has no idea the size of the target he's painting on his own back

형밖에 모르는 거대강아

see? here's the thing. A lot of people are like, the earth is fucked, it's beyond salvation, it's hit the tipping point, but time and time again we see that if we just fucking fixed the problem, it rebounds so incredibly fast. Imagine what could be done if people actually cared

I know I've said this a trillion times but I have to say it periodically to keep from going insane: The right ran a huge, well-funded, & ultimately successful campaign to completely take over political media & the infosphere more generally. This is by far the most important political development...

We're ten or so years into this & STILL I see people shouting "stop talking about the Evil Wizards who are Doing Evil Wizard Stuff, this is really all because of the rotten institutionalists" and "stop saying the institutions need pervasive ground-up reform, this is all the Evil Wizards' fault"

Fascists seek to define what is "civilized." Which is to say, what's allowed in polite conversation. In the past five years, they've moved to turn blatant, disgusting transphobia into something allowed in polite conversation when we mostly rejected it! They control when violent speech is allowed.

We live in a world where we have all these allegories for Nazis and fascists and capitalism and colonialism and... Normies are terminally incapable of understanding basic allegories. They're unfortunately even more resistant to blatant messaging. They want bland, generic stories that mean nothing.

tldr I think YQY's biggest fantasy is giving someone a hug where he doesn't have to consider when it's proper to let go.

morally wrong and didn’t work: a history of american bombing campaigns

Anyway I need a version of this that's like. I hate copaganda. the grip the crime genre has on the American imagination has normalized paranoid racism, ableism, and authoritarianism. but I love when a charismatic busybody solves a murder in a charming seaside town full of intricate family drama

I just think Xin Mo should transform into a human and fuck Shen Qingqiu

There is literally no way to find a real life fox that attractive and that’s sort of the dealbreaker for folks, most real life foxes just want to eat chickens and not be sexy

The idea that blank slate characters are more relatable because people project themselves onto them is one of those just-so stories that refuses to die. It's the opposite! People relate to specificity!

i don’t think the goal of fiction is to fix as many people as possible

"You can't take away GenAI what about the people who use it?! 😭😭😭" Fuck 'em. Fuck every last one of them. The scrapers DDoS us every waking fucking hour, making it a nightmare to keep things running. I have ZERO sympathy for folks addicted to the plagiarism machine that lies to you.

Fun fact: 54% of US adults read below a 6th grade level. You have to actively remember literally over half the US adult population is *unable to perceive subtext* www.thenationalliteracyinstitute.com/2024-2025-li...

Like: part of being functionally illiterate is *not being able to perceive that things may be biased*. Not understanding that someone might be lying, or wrong. Half the US stock market is now tied to LLM's, which only appear impressive if you are functionally illiterate.

Part of functional literacy is being able to understand, on your own, the concept that the writer is writing for a specific audience. That the thing has a specific context. Like, an article about dog grooming is addressed to dog owners. It does not need to include cat grooming.

The literal worst version of it has to exist first if you're ever going to get anywhere, so you might as well embarrass yourself by writing it

She's like an old samurai whose great battles are behind her but every once in a while she kills a man with piece of paper just to prove a point

i miss her

This feels like a "face God and walk backwards into hell" kind of thing where you're convinced it's part of the foundational texts of the Catholic Church and not a comment on a thread about "Home Alone"

Calling AI "slop" has been one of the most effective instances of the public rebranding a product and it pisses them off.

if “for sale, baby shoes, never worn” are the saddest six words, then “riding in a golf cart fatly” is the opposite of that

when ao3 is down and i have to be alone with my own thoughts before bedtime:

Last October.

Posted in October - "Discord says hackers stole government IDs of 70,000 users" arstechnica.com/security/202...

todays a big day for longtime discord haters like myself 🫩

i was told peer pressure would try to get me into drugs but my friends just really want me to like the fictional characters they’re into

Reminder. Here are the House Democrats who crossed party lines and voted to fund ICE. House Democrats who voted to fund ICE: - Tom Suozzi (D-NY) - Henry Cuellar (D-TX) - Don Davis (D-NC) - Vicente Gonzalez (D-TX) - Laura Gillen (D-NY) - Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA) - Jared Golden (D-ME)

The ancient texts

Again, apologizing to all videogame environment artists who knocked up satirical posters for their games, I should not have rolled my eyes, yes, even you Cyberpunk billboard team, I am sorry

at a certain level of any creative or intellectual collaborative job the main task is sin-eater: to fix what you can and get blamed for what you can’t, secretly knowing how much worse it would have been if you hadn’t done what you did.

none of the ai slop commercials these companies churn out will have even one-tenth of the cultural impact as the folgers incest commercial and i think that's beautiful

Dear Diary, I have been locked in a decrepit castle against my will by a man who can scale walls like a lizard. I can’t escape. Today I was set upon by three woman with pointed teeth, surely they wanted to suck my blood. It’s important to note; one of them was hot.

The way I was not ready for a VLD jumpscare in the new dropout show

1. Washington DC #NoKings 👑

a sword exists with its master and sqq buried the shards of zheng yang with the understanding that this was also the boy luo binghe used to be, and he’d never need a sword like zheng yang again. and luo binghe unearths that grave!!! he digs up every shard and he pieces zheng yang back together!!!
