musk is going to die in a Tesla explosion in 6 months after sticking his nose where it doesn't belong and we will never get a conclusive answer on whether it was a CIA car bomb or just a normal Tesla malfunction

Love how in the canon Star Trek universe they just had a period of time (TOS) where starfleet decided to make everything really brightly coloured and make everything stand out, and then went “Wow! That was terrible! Let’s never do that again!” And after about 5 years immediately changed every uniform to red

Watching the new smoshcast episode where they're reading their journals and tbh I sympathize with Shayne. I didn't journal when I was 16 but I still have novel WIPs that I wrote from around that age and my writing exactly had that vibe lmao. I feel like he must have read a lot of books then he said he was reading classics.. confirming my thought 😂

You end up being articulate at a young age but still have moments where you're like "oh... This was def written by a teenager" 😂😂

I'm surprised there isn't something floating about with how infamous this book is around here lol

For a book that's heralded as spirk-inclined, there sure is a lot of weird undertones between jim and this book's OC

You know who could fix America? Szeth son son vallano.

Whelp. It's my birthday today. I'm deliberately avoiding the news. I don't need to see you know who and his band of circus clowns today. 👍

We really should talk more about how sweet was Kirk's "BEAUTIFUL" to Uhura. He sounded so proud.

LOOK. AT HER SMILE!!!

I also loved how he just lifted her like as if she were a kitten. Their dinamic is criminally underrated.

Reminder for when he “saves” it. He was the one who wanted this, and now he gets to be the hero and win favour with young constituents. Don’t give him the credit for fixing his own problem.

Can you tell this to the idiots on Reddit who think they're safe?? Lol

I've been keeping it off my face as much as I can on video, but I'm livid about the TikTok ban.

I have about 100,000 followers on that app. I joined during the pandemic. I was lucky to find a community full of incredible people, many of whom I now consider lifelong friends. Because of the community I found on that app, I found space to experiment with my gender presentation. I was able to come out as nonbinary (to feel SAFE ENOUGH to come out as nonbinary) because of that app.

I've seen a few Tumblr posts in which people gloat they never got into TikTok. Good for you. You won't suffer emotionally, and that makes you feel superior. But if you have no concept of what that app has meant for more than 170,000,000 Americans (that's half of all Americans!), many of whom do not have access to community in physical spaces, kindly sit down.

The ban constitutes the largest mass layoff in American history. We will lose billions of dollars in our domestic economy. Over 7 million small businesses are shuttering because of the ban. You will feel the effect of that whether or not you were on the app. If you can't grasp the significance of that, again: kindly sit down.

The language of the TikTok ban has set a dangerous precedent for the American government to shutter any tech platforms they deem "dangerous" for arbitrary, undisclosed, nebulous reasons. This will affect Americans' ability to organize, spread information, and protest. They have effectively banned our right to assembly in digital spaces. This is the greatest infringement of free speech that has ever occurred in the United States. If you can't grasp the significance of that, either: kindly sit down.

This is bigger than "never falling for the TikTok craze." This is an enormous governmental overreach sanctioned by our own Supreme Court. It's bigger than teens doing silly dances you can sneer at from your smug high horse.

And if you can't grasp that: Kindly. Sit. Down.

Scrolling through here and reddit wishing it was TikTok :/

This isn't the same

Thank you I'll check this out 👍

Does anyone know of a text book similar to this but for mandarin Chinese?

I used to use this in school when I was in a japanese class and it was really great. The first portion of the textbook had romaji but then slowly pulled back the use of it later on, getting you used to seeing hiragana/katakana then later actual characters and such. There were also a bunch of examples and activities (one of my favorite bits was when they had a textbox labelled as "cultural note" that well, as the word says, told you some of the cultural context behind a word or phrase) that helped getting used to proactively using the language.

By the end of that school year I could write about myself and my hobbies and basic things about the weather, feelings and the like.

I feel like the structured set up of a textbook would help me 100% better than trying to use 60 different apps that only let you have access to like 5 lessons until you hit a paywall😭
