Oh, okay. I see. You think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select out, oh I don’t know, that gaslight gatekeep girlboss meme, for instance, because you’re trying to tell the world that you think modern feminism has been co-opted by corporations. But what you don’t know is that that meme is not from Instagram, it's not from Twitter, it's not from Tiktok, it’s actually from Tumblr. You’re also blithely unaware of the fact that in January 2021, Tumblr user missnumber1111 posted, "today's agenda: gaslight gatekeep and most importantly girlboss." And then I think it was a-m-e-t-h-y-s-t-r-o-s-e, wasn’t it, who reblogged it with an image of the phrase edited over a piece of "Live, Laugh, Love" wall art? And then gaslight gatekeep girlboss showed up in the feeds of eight different Twitter repost accounts. Then it filtered down through Instagram and then trickled on down into some tragic “alt side of Tiktok” where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that meme represents millions of notes and countless Tumblr users and so it’s sort of comical how you think that you’ve made a choice that exempts you from Tumblr when, in fact, you’re wearing the meme that was selected for you by the people in this room. From a pile of “stuff.”

Daily fucking reminder that Luigi Mangione is innocent, completely and fully. He has been convicted of no crime. He has had no fair trial. He is a SUSPECT. Luigi Mangione is entirely innocent and everyone needs to stop parroting this insidious propaganda that he “committed” the crime he is only SUSPECTED of. He is not a murderer. He is not a criminal. He is an innocent man.

You’re a regular office worker born with the ability to “see” how dangerous a person is with a number scale of 1-10 above their heads. A toddler would be a 1, while a skilled soldier with a firearm may score a 7. Today, you notice the reserved new guy at the office measures a 10.

i feel like we as a digital society have forgotten the important rules of the internet
Don't feed the trolls
Never give out personal information
Anonymity is the best defense
Don't click suspicious links
Don't click popups and ads
Just because it's written doesn't mean it's true
You are responsible for your own experience
There is porn of everything, act accordingly

the concept and idea of “you can always start trying to be a better person” is extremely important to me both in media and irl and i continue to be deeply deeply disturbed by the trend on this site pushing that these ideas in media are bad writing or even morally reprehensible
because theyd rather someone stay terrible or just straight up die than become a better person
from a compassionate point of view it’s deeply distressing and from a pragmatic point of view it’s outright frustrating
it’s fucked up.

I hate Kyoto and I've made that clear many times. I think the premise of it is very stupid, I think the conclusion of it is very stupid and I think it's an insult to the intelligence of his audience.
However, if there is an aspect of Kyoto I like, it's Shinichi willing to go through with the transformation just to be a normal boy again for a couple of hours.
I hate how dismissive of the transformation Gosho is when he shows how agonizing it is to undergo. Your body melting or regrowing at such a rapid pace and you feel every moment of it. Shinichi clutches at his chest when he transforms so it's obvious it also puts strain on his heart when goes through it. He no doubt also feels transported to that fateful day, when he first thought he would die.
And yet despite how painful and traumatizing it is, how often he has to grow and shrink in such a short period of time, Shinichi is willing to endure such agony for a moment of normality, to pretend just for a couple of days he is a normal teenage boy hanging out with his friends and love interest.
It's so goddamn raw and tragic when you think about it.

Hey. Your brain needs to de-frag. Literally it needs you to sit there and space out.
If you want your memory or executive function to improve, stare out a window at the skyline or sidewalk or trees or birds on the electrical wires for like 20+ minutes per day. (With no other stimulation like a podcast or TV if you can manage but hey baby steps innit). If you're fortunate enough to have safe outside with any bits of nature, go stare closely at a 1 meter square of grass and trip out on the bugs and shapes of grasses and stuff.
Literally this will make you smarter. Our brains HAVE TO HAVE this zone out time to do important stuff behind the scenes. This does not happen during sleep, it's something else.
That weird pressurized feeling you get sometimes might be your brain on no defrag.
Give your brain a Daily Dose Of De-Frag.

Love that Kaito is so Cat Coded.
Like all of the detectives have to interact with him like he's a feral stray cat and it's hilarious and sad every time.
He's obviously traumatized and paranoid about himself and others getting hurt like Conan is but unlike Conan he doesn't really have the luxury of talking to anyone about it, Jii-san is old and talking with him would only worry him. He can't talk to Aoko, he thinks she'll hate him (rightfully). Nor Akako, 'cause he's had bad experiences with her and once you hurt a feral cat it'll hate you until you get its trust back (really hard). Nor Saguru, nor Heji, nor Nakamori. The only person he'd even slightly be able to talk to about this stuff is Conan but that'll only be vague allusions if Conan could even get Kaito to slow down and trust him enough to talk with him anyways, he wouldn't be able to go into specifics cause he'd be worried about his identity getting out even with Conan.
The worst part is that they couldn't even help him if they arrest him bc Kaito would assume they're done with their job when he's arrested and he'd be in danger if he continues to stay arrested (he likely would be). So he'd run away and would cut all contact with his old life to keep them safe and the detectives wouldn't be able to help him.
He's so Cat Coded it's funny because I imagine the detective and the Taskforce treating him like a cat but then it's sad because they'd have to treat him like an abused cat, cause he is.
