i go to the shop and I ask if they have any raspberries. they say no, they used to sell raspberries, but they haven't had any in stock in the last 15 years. I ask if there's somewhere else I can go to buy raspberries. They say no, with confidence and pride, they're the only shop around who has ever sold or will ever sell raspberries. Other shops might sell other fruit, sure, but they have a monopoly on all raspberries forever. I ask if they're possibly planning on them selling them again in future? they say they can't tell me that.

on the way home, I encounter someone eating raspberries. I ask and they tell me that they grow their own, they got some seeds from the shop back in The Raspberry Days and kept them. They take me to a field of many beautiful raspberry plants and invite me to pick my own, they're free for all the town to pick whenever they'd like.

someone comes up behind us. It's the shop manager, President of Nintendo Shuntaro Furukawa. he hatefully throws a bob-omb that blows up and kills both of us instantly for stealing 200 trillion dollars worth of potential Raspberry Shop That Doesn't Do Raspberries Anymore profits that they weren't making and then he turns around to the camera with a big thumbs up and says don't do piracy or something ok please

People really underestimate the power of just telling someone you like them. romantically obviously but hell even just platonically too. You can admit you enjoy peoples presence it doesn’t have to be mind games it’s okay to just be sincere and true with your thoughts and intentions btw

There is literally no circumstance where I support age verification to access a website. As I've said before I'm very much the "there's nuance here" person on almost everything but on this issue there's no nuance for me, it's awful and horrible in and of itself and it also sets an awful and horrible precedent

The older I get the more I admire people who are earnestly, genuinely into whatever their thing is. I know it sounds like an annoying cliche but unless you're being cruel or hurtful there is really no need to be normal about things. The dude with the bad fake accent at the renaissance faire is having the time of his life. The people having photoshoots with their fashion dolls are loving it. The old lady with a yard unreasonably full of tacky ass lawn ornaments is having a blast, HOA be damned.

Don't waste your time being too cool to have fun, y'know?

I think my coworker's fucking the IT guy bc we normally have to submit a ticket and they'll get back to us in 2-3 days unless it's crazy urgent. But he showed up like 1.5 hours after and went "Tanya... you miss me already?" And she giggled and went "omg stop Daviddd" meanwhile I'm sitting here like

Ferrari 375 MM Coupé Speciale, 1954, by Scaglietti. The 375 MM (for Mille Miglia) was built for competition, 26 were made. Five were built for road use and one Pininfarina-bodied Spyder was purchased by Italian film director Roberto Rossellini (father of Isabella Rossellini). Rossellini's car was involved in an accident whereupon the maestro commissioned Sr. Scaglietti to rebody the 375 MM as a closed coupé, he was spending a lot of time in Paris where a fixed roof was a more practical proposition. After Rossellini disposed of the car it remained in Paris and obscurity until 1995 when it was "rescued" by former Microsoft president Jon Shirley who commissioned a rebuild and total restoration.

Please help a disabled Brazilian trans woman survive this month

Hi sorry I fucking hate asking for help online, but as some of you know, I've been in the amazon taking care of my grandma after she had a really delicate surgery And taking care of my baby niece (since my grandma can't take care of her while recovering) this past month.

This means I haven't been able to work except for my remote translation and writing gigs (which I have been doing despite the fact I also have to care for a 4yo child), so money has been really hard to come by lately.

The money I managed to get from commissions has gone to pay for the euthanasia and cremation of my dog Plus the bills of my family in São Paulo, meaning I have no money left for groceries (for my family back home, as I'm still in the Amazon until next week).

We really really really need money right now, especially before the 1st of August, so any help right now is really appreciated.

"you see it's funny because i'm pretending to be enthusiastically racist using thinly veiled 1-1 analogous terms to real world racism but it's about a minority that doesn't exist. it's basically a joke about how fun and funny it would be to be racist haha. like it would be so cool and funny if i was racist that's kind of the joke i'm making but don't worry i'm not haha"

I find it hard to participate in any discourse around JoJo Siwa because I just think her childhood should have been illegal.
