when did the tumblr culture around asks change so much? ive been thinking about it alot recently and its something i already do think about time to time, like... what happened? they used to be such a huge part of the community and suddenly fell off.

i think in 2024 maybe we should work to bring back the larger ask culture. start more random conversations with others, create and share more ask games, maybe say something nice to the people you follow, drop off a silly meme or just pop in and say hi!

Okay I’ve been stuck on trying to make baby blankets for a while now and can’t get myself to just focus on the darn things, so time for a side quest! I had a layer cake of this precut fabric and I’m making two baby quilts from it

Well, I’m definitely making this one, and after this one I’ll see if I’m able to focus on baby blankets again or if my brain still has that invisible wall up between me and the task? So it might only be one of these baby quilts for now

"but you can use AI as a teacher to write lesson plans"

You could pay us more we could do it

"but you could use it to get grants done faster"

Or you could pay me more and I could get it done

"but you could use it to write creatively Faster"

I'm gonna go find a brick

Something I always wonder with the whole: "The lazy populous doesn't want to work!" is if it's only being said to keep minimum wage at the very, very lowest end of 'survivability.'

The "lazy worker" isn't truly a problem. The employers are.

is there an equivalent of frociaggine for dykery?

ALAS not really! I'd still say frociaggine. "Frocio" and related words are as close to an umbrella term as you can get, at least in the reclaimed / community slang meaning of the word — as a slur is directed to gay men only, but queer people just love making up derivatives of that word and just throw it around like it's glitter at pride. Frociate. Frocerie. Frocetto. Frociarole. The way it rolls off the tongue is unparalled.

The slang word that specifically means lesbian is "lella" but I feel like it doesn't lend itself to the same amount of linguistic experiments that frocio does? Like, if I wanted to make up a derivative word it'd be like — lellagine? lellismo? lellate? it just doesn't sound fun and distinctive enough.

(All of this is very specific to central Italy / Rome specifically, Italian as a language can vary a lot regionally, especially the slang, and maybe there IS a slang word for dykery that's used in Sicily or Piemonte and I have absolutely no idea. Pls lmk if that's the case.)

IRL frogs also dont do well with salt water theyre freshwater critters

I am aware frogs are freshwater do not put a frog in salt water they will Not Do Well! the relevant bit there was the “can’t swim” because the whole “people who eat a devil fruit can’t swim and are indeed weakened by water” seems to extend to freshwater, even though the given explanation is that it’s because the sea curses them and it’s stuff called sea-stone that’s used to nullify their powers by the marines. the bit that was ironic was less. salt water bad. and more “bigb is a frog that sinks like a stone”, you know?

I'd like to call it now before I'm accused of this by someone who thinks the thematic foundation of a particular show is the "romance"

just. Based on some *takes* I've seen.

Me: I don't know if my ideas are worth sharing, I'm losing engagement from my readerbase these past few months so I must be doing something wrong, I don't think I've really accomplished anything as a writer.
