The logo for the Alpha Novel app looks like a doubtful tanuki.

I suppose that fits with my reactions to the stories presented in these two ads. Seemed worth the giggle to share with tumblr

Duolingo Sucks, Now What?: A Guide

Now that the quality of Duolingo has fallen (even more) due to AI and people are more willing to make the jump here are just some alternative apps and what languages they have:

"I just want an identical experience to DL"

Busuu (Languages: Spanish, Japanese, French, English, German, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Polish, Turkish, Russian, Arabic, Korean)

"I want a good audio-based app"

Language Transfer (Languages: French, Swahili, Italian, Greek, German, Turkish, Arabic, Spanish, English for Spanish Speakers)

"I want a good audio-based app and money's no object"

Pimsleur (Literally so many languages)

Glossika (Also a lot of languages, but minority languages are free)

*anecdote: I borrowed my brother's Japanese Pimsleur CD as a kid and I still remember how to say the weather is nice over a decade later. You can find the CDs at libraries and "other" places I'm sure.

"I have a pretty neat library card"

Mango (Languages: So many and the endangered/Indigenous courses are free even if you don't have a library that has a partnership with Mango)

Transparent Language: (Languages: THE MOST! Also the one that has the widest variety of African languages! Perhaps the most diverse in ESL and learning a foreign language not in English)

"I want SRS flashcards and have an android"

AnkiDroid: (Theoretically all languages, pre-made decks can be found easily)

"I want SRS flashcards and I have an iphone"

AnkiApp: It's almost as good as AnkiDroid and free compared to the official Anki app for iphone

"I don't mind ads and just want to learn Korean"

lingory

"I want an app made for Mandarin that's BETTER than DL and has multiple languages to learn Mandarin in"

ChineseSkill (You can use their older version of the course for free)

"I don't like any of these apps you mentioned already, give me one more"

Bunpo: (Languages: Japanese, Spanish, French, German, Korean, and Mandarin)

it should be illegal to put ads in apps or sites for solitaire or picross or sudoku tbh. playing classic puzzle games uninterrupted needs to be a HUMAN RIGHT

[applebees4prez]

pov you started playing dnd

wait we’re just straight up killing people?

i have to watch literally every episode of dimension 20/critical role

how the fuck do you have a +9 to this skill we’re at level 3

i need to start dm-ing right now so that i can literally become brennan lee mulligan

what the fuck is min-maxing and how do i do it

oh god i keep forgetting my only set of dice everywhere i have to use the online dice again

shut up d&d beyond you’re not taking my money just let me make a goddamn character sheet

i was worried my character would be the most ridiculous one of the party but i’m actually the most normal

the math is so easy but there’s so much of it oh god

this is nothing like stranger things

the rest of my party has characters that are so complex and have so many secrets and i feel like i have nothing to contribute to the plot

i was told all dnd players are nerdy cis boys who can’t get girlfriends but literally everyone here is queer and if they’re not queer they’re going to be

Well hello,,,,,

Top surgery fund! <3 $tips <3 wishlist

(holding out my hand) let's be a little bit pretentious together

[feathers-second-face]

OH!!! OH!!!

DO YOU SEE THIS??

DO YOU SEE IT??

SHE'S TOUCHING HIS SHOULDER!!

Oh mah gawd. He doesn't let anyone touch him unless they're his friends.

If they aren't his friends, he'll either lean away or wipe off his hand. He hates being touched if he's not the one initiating it, to the point of wiping his sleeve off when Lucifer's hat just BARELY grazed against it.

He didn't wipe his shoulder off when Charlie stopped touching him either.

AND!!!

And!!!

Before You Say 'He did lean away', or 'She wasnt actually touching him, her hand was just near him', Take A Look At This!!

Look closely at how he moves when she splits them up. He doesn't lean away, she SHOVED him. She actively MOVED him. That wasn't an 'oh she's making contact with me, guess I should lean away', it was a 'well she's shoving me now, I'll shut up for a minute'.

Which also proves she WAS touching him. She couldn't have shoved him if she wasn't making contact.

He didn't lean away from it, he didn't retaliate. The ONLY people he lets touch him are people he cares for. And not only did she put her hand on his shoulder, she actively pushed him back, and he showed no sign of discomfort towards it. So why am I screaming about this?

Because he DOES care! It proves he cares for her. Don't get me wrong, I still think saying he's her 'dad' is a bit of a strech, but he does care enough to let her touch him. He doesn't dislike or even have a neutral opinion on her. She's his friend, even if just a little bit.

Just an edit to clarify; I know 'friends' is probably also not the best word to use, but it's just the easiest way for me to describe it.

"He's mine. Mine alone."

Morph just won the biggest and legendary prize in the arcade! The giant plushie may or may not be possessed by the actual Logan Howlett.

Hi gang so I took a break from drawing after that Morph's pride month challenge, and I was able to return to drawing(but slower because I'm preparing for college ugh!!!). Gonna return to my WIPs and complete them before my second year starts, so dtay tuned! 😌💖
