okay I had two days to think about it and yeah no, I still hate Kai‘s ending loll

I think the whole „you don‘t deserve to ever forget what you did and you will apologize to Eri for the rest of your life“ is bullshit and I do not think Pops should to be in charge to decide that. I also don‘t think what he said is justified. Let Kai feel guilt about Eri, he should feel guilty bc he was a terrible person, but let him apologize if and when SHE wants that, and then let them both move on to a hopefully better future, not this shit. Kai is clearly distressed and deeply regrets what he did and kicking him while he‘s down is not gonna help anyone. And I‘m sick and tired of the fandom acting like the League is a bunch of precious angels who „deserved better“ and then turn around and say Kai deserves to suffer for all eternity. It‘s revolting.

So yeah I don‘t think I will ever be happy about this or think this is a good ending for him :))

I‘ll just stick to my fanfics thank you

Thinking about how in Blindsight the author seemed to be treating the lure of virtual reality paradise as a trap for conscious beings.

But, if you think about it, it's actually the reverse. A non-conscious intelligence that simply responds to stimulus would go happily into artificial means of stimulating the pleasure centres of the brain as it is simple a stimulus-response automaton. It's the conscious and thinking ones that would 'waste time' on philosophy debating whether such pleasure is true and valuable or not and instead be drawn by curiosity to the stars.

(Though, really, I disagree with the whole notion of thinking there's complex animals that aren't self aware. The mirror test is more of assessment of an animal's response to visual stimulus than self awareness. If an alien researcher stuck a human in a scent based equivalent we'd almost certainly fail it.)

Today my coworker asked if I had a boyfriend and I said no, but I couldn't tell her it was because I'm gay. I had the perfect opportunity and I couldn't take it. I'm trying to unlearn shame, but it's really hard irl.

People who call me misogynistic for saying a lady’s bare boobs shouldn’t be hanging out in a game meant for kids:

“Women can have an opinion on women’s issues, except any opinion on their own bodies I don’t like.”

working with kids is wild one minute you're explaining the curing process that makes salami salty and the next they're trying to lure you into the mlm they invented without knowing what an mlm is

"when i was your age, i was working three jobs to help support my family" and "when i was in college i was sleeping on a mattress on the floor and living off of soup"

YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO DO THAT. NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO DO THAT. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN TO YOU THAT THIS ISN'T A CHARACTER-BUILDING LESSON, IT'S JUST BAD

My cat thinks everything in a crinkly ziplock bag is cat-treats and yells at me when they’re not.

I always offer to share! But he turns his nose up at my sour candy and asks why not fish crunchies.

My brother got a new puppy when he can barely care for his current dog. I'm so pissed but the puppy is so cute! Hum. Current dog constantly escapes his yard because they don't take her for walks (she's a shepherd/husky mix so you know she needs lots of exercise). I had her trained before I left and now she's tearing shit apart because she's in a crate 16 hours a day. Gotta keep telling my self not my house not my problem.

Outie Dylan, swallowing his pride and deciding to tell his innie that he’s actually pretty cool despite the wife smooching debacle: I’m proud of you and while I’ll respect your decision if you want to resign I think you should make it work there because I don’t want you to die

Bit out of nowhere from me but I hate hate HATE how nowadays comic book writers who have never touched an Iron Man comic before write him as a tech bro without any kind of class awareness

As if Tony hasn't canonically been homeless and almost died because of it

As if there weren't lots (and I mean LOTS) of Iron Man comics that are a direct critique of capitalism because no matter how intelligent and talented Tony is, he loses a lot of money because he focuses on doing the right thing and not on making the line go up

As if Iron Man didn't have lots and lots of old comics warning about climate change and global warming

And I blame 1) The Civil War comic and 2) The MCU for this
