#AND WTF HAPPENED TO CAPITALIZATION!!?!

[snailification]

Idk who needs to hear this, but the reason your fic isn't getting a lot of attention is bc it's one big block!!

[luneariann]

Drove thru a scary part of the city alone at night someone clap please im shaking

[annoyinganarchopunk]

i know one of the big things with me being punk is that im meant to be political but why is literally every geopolitical event possible currently happening

dude i havent even had my first kiss yet and governments are already collapsing left and right like DAMN GIVE ME A MINUTE holy shit

[aceoffangirls]

The fact that abortion was even part of the discussion in the Queensland state election shows the impact US politics have in Australia....

[unnamed-atlas]

Not cub inventing the minecraft equivalent of the printing press and immediately deciding to use it with the purpose of creating false scarcity lmao

[clowningaroundmars]

lots of stores shutting down and businesses going bankrupt in my state....

kinda nervous not bc of of corps dying but bc this country has historically been terrible about leaving vacant storefronts and parking lots collecting dust and weeds for years!

places that could be used for housing, community centers, etc just sittin there 😔

[unrepentantly-weird]

on a slightly lighter note, after reading/writing this last night, it was nice to go to work this morning and squint up at the procter & gamble headquarters across the street and go “the sun is already up, it’s hard to tell… do they still have… yes! the rainbow lights!”

context: p&g, umbrella company of Every Cleaning Brand You Know, has been lighting up their hq every june all june for years. (they also do a red-no lights-green pattern in february for Black History Month, and they do other things too of course.) it’s performative sure, but as someone who remembers the Before Times it still makes me smile. it looks like this but red-yellow-green-blue-purple-pink:

so i was fully prepared to rip into Tumblr for trying to pull its "queerest place on the internet" rainbow capitalism bullshit again this year... but it's actually feeling kind of disconcerting that it doesn't seem like they've actually done anything for Pride, as far as i can tell...

[fiveisthedaddyhere]

uuuuh hey guys im not okay

[dravidious]

God fucking damnit DuckDuckGo just added ai

[the-lorax-mustache]

Saw this in the wild today.

I have… questions

[moniazalea]

why do I feel like this is closely connected to the way in which we have created an image and narrative of poor people? this notion of having to control low-paid workers because surely we'll all out to do nothing and "steal" the money for it, while sitting in some office or getting paid a few digits more automatically makes a wealthier hence morally more upstanding person

[kil9]

"the barbie movie is capitalism" everything is capitalism bitch are u watching it or not ???

also like. the mario movie the sonic movie the ENTIRE pokemon franchise. any movie is selling itself, anything in our society is designed to make money so like. enjoy it or dont, but dont act like this is some Crazy New Thing that a blockbuster wants to make a profit lmao. lol. do u want your "smartest cynic in the room" award ? huh ?

🎩man-with-a-top-hat Follow

There have been various sightings of lights across the sky. I have not been able to find any reliable sources on the cause, but the general consensus is the lights pushed the aliens back where they came from.

So what are we calling these aliens? They need a cool, alien sounding name ‘cuz all I’ve been seeing around is ‘land squids’, ‘brain goop’ and shoutout to that one discord user who used the words ‘pink gelatinous parsnip’ to describe them.

Why does everyone keep on calling them aliens? Are we sure they’re not just failed government test subjects? Haven’t there been mutant sightings in NYC before?

Was walking back from work, and I was like nearly home right? I turn a corner and there: a sea of cheering girl scouts. Who are they cheering on you ask? Their… cult (?) leader? Tearing one of those aliens apart with her bare hands. And the kids are just laughing and some are even joining in? They must have nerves of steel

slice of bread is the platform you're looking for

it's easy to forget that other ceos are just as out of touch as tech guys but thankfully we have "rather than a flavor or a product, [olive oil] is really a platform" from starbucks to remind us of this

[aerequets]

randomly remembered the time when I was 9 or 10 years old and in a Huge online game phase (think club penguin, fantage, Poptropica, etc). my fixation at the time of this memory was fantage, which, for those who don't know, was basically a dress-up game where you could also interact with other players and play games and whatnot.

so I was Obsessed. like begging my dad for memberships (he finally got me one for one month. it cost $6) and beelining straight to fantage when I got home from school and acting like the pixelated clothing items I got for my pixelated avatar were truly treasure. like this was my second world guys. My... happiness? No, not my happiness, but maybe my sanity hinged on this online game.

now one thing about fantage was that they had censored words, like cuss words, because it was a game for kids. if you said something, it could result in a temporary ban, or, if what you said was REAL bad, a permanent ban on your account.

anyways, people found a neat little trick where if you said the word 'sexy' (not a cuss word but also not something you want kids to be using?) the game would automatically convert it to 'cool'. and I was ALL OVER this trick. For some reason 9 year old me found it the funniest thing in the world to see 'sexy' written in the chat bar (which, by the way, I didn't even really know what it meant) only for the word 'cool' to come up in my speech bubble instead. I even started experimenting. what if I wrote 'exy'? (nothing.) what if it was capitalized? (COOL.)

what if I wrote 'sex'?

probably because it isn't a bad word, the orange pop-up of doom only declared I was banned for 24 hours instead of forever. but I can still remember the sheer panic and horror 9 year old me felt at that sight. I was Banned.

i guess 9 year old me also didn't have any foresight, because instead of 1) considering it was only a day long ban, I could wait and 2) considering it was only a day long ban, NOBODY HAD TO KNOW, I instead ran straight to my mom with tears running down my face and loudly asked "IS S E X A BAD WORD?" mind you, I spelled it out S-E-X because I was under the impression that banned fantage words would somehow also get me banned from real life.

my mother, bless her soul, only looked horrified as her sniveling 9 year old stood there after asking that question. after asking the normal questions (where did you hear that, what happened) and getting a hold on the situation, all she said was "Yes it's a bad word" and left it at that. Im glad she didn't put any stock into my panic over being banned for ONE DAY because wtf was I actually doing.

anyways moral of the story?? practice safe sexy I guess idk I have no idea why I was like that
