to preface this post i am anti-advertising i think we should explode the entire industry but it's sooo funny when you people make posts like "and they don't even work!!" like. sorry to be the bearer of bad news but yes they do. that's why we have to put up with so many despite everyone hating them and thinking its annoying. because they actually work really well and make a shit load of money
#it actually would be way better if they didnt work and made no money bc businesses would abandon them#this isnt like stocks where everythings abstract and is essentially gambling (i dont understand stocks)#like ppl in the ad industry create things. that make a tangible and quantifiable impact on the business#which is then used in further ad planning. it is NOT all smoke and mirrors#like its fake in that the industry is not providing a necessary service the way like. grocery stores are#but its not the level of fake where everything is abstract like theres deliverables#moreover there is an extensive body of academic work specifically on how to make ads more effective#ALSO i think some of u views ads like. as if they have a win condition. which is you buy product#but in current advertising this is pretty rare and comparatively ineffective#which is why you see MANY ads which dont seem to be selling anything in particular. or which have nothing all to do with the product#the 'win' condition for THAT kind of ad is something more like 'viewers remember our name'#like. ex i would say ads for temu have not been effective on me bc i havent bought anything from them#but temu probably thinks they were SUPER effective on me because i talked abt them like 5 different times at work#and i do in fact know exactly what the company does and what they sell#and they were able to capitalize on the reputations of existing companies (wish shein etc) to build their own brand#good idea generator

now that you mention it, yeah kabru is kind of an ibex
trying to pin it down but I don't feel confident on my grasp of kabru's characterization (depsite him being my favourite guy. you know how it is) but like. Kabru is a nicer ibex. Ibex is kabru but he's no longer asking. Ibex is a kabru but he's not afraid to let outright enemies stay on the board if he knows he'll win the overall battle. I think Kabru would make a better candidate of rightousness. I need a two way au and we're gonna send the dunmeshi cast to divine cycle space and we're throwing the kingdom crew in a last ditch dungeon crawl
@arcnoise tagging just in case
#sound of me clacking toys into different playset#trying to figure out how each universes elements would translate into each other#demons and divines#how does laios' monster fascination cross over to divine space#what are dungeons supposed to represent from the divine space setting. the structure that the demon/divine resides in#a necessary pillar that settlements must build themselves on for what the demons provide and promise?#ik i said kingdom crew but trying to imagine what AuDY would be in the dunmeshi universe#a living suit of armor that so happens to be able to go the surface and pretends to be a merc and dungeon guide for hire?#some things are starting to click. like laios being more a computer nerd. trying to break down the systems that make up divine variety#potentially#to contrast marcilles more interest in civil systems and public services that structure themselves around divines#NO fucking idea how senshi fits into this#anyway. uuh#friends at the table#dunmeshi

A fleeting appearance by Gareth Thomas as Briggs, running a car hire service (but not delivering customer satisfaction) in Public Eye: The Man Who Didn’t Eat Sweets (5.9, Thames, 1971)
#fave spotting#gareth thomas#roj blake#blakes 7#blake's 7#public eye#classic tv#thames#the man who didn’t eat sweets#1971#more not great screen grabs I'm afraid#i keep thinking someone must have got better images from this ep (it's the same one Colin Baker rocks up in) but if they have#i haven't found them yet.#i had it in my head that GT turned up again later in the series as the same character#but looking at imdb i see it's actually in the next series that he reappears and his character has a different name so i guess#I'm just misremembering#anyway he's only really here for a moment or two to provide Frank with a car (and receive some grumbling on the models he has available)#(grumbling he meets with the studied indifference i well remember mastering during my own years in customer service)#still always fun to see him pop up with a more juvenile look#b7 wasn't so very far away at this point but he looks a great deal younger than he did as Roj

i must be honest with you all i think if eyes started turning towards kabrus womb just bc its near laios to start producing heirs for the throne hed be scheduling a hysterectomy that afternoon. and laios would take him there
#like the way so many of these stories revolve around kabru providing the service of his womb for it is so icky.#its transphobic its patriarchal it treats kabrus body as a means to an end#like kabru wanting to have his own children with his partner is a seperate thing#like its very often more like a coerced surrogacy than kabru wanting to have kids of his own#also this is a magic fantasy world where laios' best friend is a researcher into impossible healing and his sister is a gifted healer too#and i just dont think kabru would be okay with being treated as a roving womb for bearing heirs#like. again this is different than him wanting kids with his partner who happens to be a king#and him being pregnant is simply one path to having those kids

Wwx: the way to a man's heart is through his stomach
Lwj: Mn, cook for him
Jc, at the same time: yes, you have to stab him through the stomach to reach the heart
#mdzs#the untamed#wei wuxian#wei ying#lan wangji#lan zhan#wangxian#incorrect mdzs quotes#jiang wanyin#jiang cheng#okay so this started as a meta post about how jyls love language is acts of service specifically through food#and that as a starving orphan this is a love language wwx is especially susceptible to#then I thought about how lwjs love language is Also acts of service - and in wwxs second life includes providing food/cooking for him#which eventually led to wwx realizing hes in love with lwj and lwj loves him back#and I realized that wwx in his first life tried to do this for lwj (the loquats the yilling food date)#all this made me think of the expression “the way to a mans heart is through his stomach” and how lwj demonstrates that#however yesterday my brother and I talked about how theres only 2 way to stab someone in the heart - get between the ribs or under them#and the second method basically means that to get to a mans heart you have to stab him through the stomach#which suddenly made me remember that jc Did stab wwx in the stomach (though not up into the heart)#so while both of them reached for wwxs heart they did it in completely different ways and lwjs way won#and suddenly I thought about making this silly joke instead of the meta post I had planned#though I guess if you read the tags you get the meta post as well

idk if it means anything really, but i think it's interesting how after all their time together as a couple in a christianity-adjacent world, lucifer and lilith only had one (1) child, and it was only 200 years ago at that
#for a show based on a religion notorious for the expectation put on women to become mothers (especially at a young age)#(and in certain extreme cases the only real role of a woman being essentially that of a breeding tool/incubator)#it's a neat detail (though quite likely unintentional) that the Ultimate 1 Most Horrible Sinner Couple betrayed heaven's rules#then went on to have a long (happy? generally successful?) relationship without needing/rushing to have children#presumably satisfied with one another rather than feeling obligated to make themselves “useful”#I feel it really highlights exactly the sort of differences that came of lilith choosing lucifer over adam#like no wonder amirite.#freedom for lilith was as small and inherent a thing as bodily autonomy (👀); as getting to have a relationship where she can be loved for#who she is instead of what services she can provide#the show obviously mentions this a lot in other ways but to me a main example of this is the childlessness in their marriage#again idk if it means much but i haven't seen this talked about much i know this specifically is not talked about in the show either#but it's a pretty obvious deviation from what christianity teaches women and what lilith would have especially known to be her role at the#beginning of humanity where they needed to do a lot of ~populating~#even nowadays the expectation for women to become wifes and be subservient to their husbands & the role of sex being purely reproductive#all that time but only 1 kid & so late too just goes to show how absent those roles + rules + expectations were once lilith rejected adam#(and therefore heaven)#which. the detail itself can be interpreted in different ways as can the reaction to this particular interpretation. but personally i'm just#happy for her that she (perhaps/presumably/temporarily) got to experience a loving relationship based on mutual respect and equality etc.#so like good for her#this doesnt really have a point i just thought it was a cool detail#rant post#shitpost#kind of#hazbin hotel#lucilith#i am not trying to generalize christianity itself here btw#and when i say extreme cases i do mean *extreme* as i know it's not reflective of the religion as a whole or it's principles#but in the hellaverse specifically it does seem like those teachings and mentalities and heavily unequal gender roles *were* meant to exist#so the specific lack of their fulfillment with lucilith seems important

Saw the prompt list from a mutal and didn't even consider the "bees" prompt was not 100% serious until I visited this blog as I have apiphobia/melissophobia(fear of bees) so bees are a geuinely horrible and scary thing to me. Also if you want to see a really fucked up story about bees, watch the black mirror episode "hated in the nation". It gave genuine nightmares for weeks and still gives me chills to this day.
lol i think i assosciate bees with good! cute! makin honey! and so i always thought it was silly, but i've seen a lot of people come out saying how serious their fear of bees is and how its a serious prompt like the rest
which is great!
i think i saw that a kajillion years ago but the admin of the blog has a controversial opinion which is like....... most black mirror episodes aren't interesting lol
#dont get me wrong#i am afraid of all bugs#they terrify me#but bees just hit different because they're providing a service lmao

Not my phone provider sending me sad post-break-up emails now that I've sent them the contract termination wtf
#I'm so glad to get change to a different one#can't be much worse#they seriously call you and tell you outright lies to scare you and use a 'free month' of phone security services#which then obviously turns into you having to pay#I got that call and they said#'as you have probably already heard there is a wave of phone hacking going around'#and I was like#what#and looked it up on my laptop while talking to them#and what's the first thing I find?#articles about my provider using the same lie multiple times over multiple years#fuck them#my contract ends in February and I'm not going back

Honestly it's low-key kind of wild to me that the two main flavors of dentist are A. literally so amazing and fastidious, one of the if not THE most important healthcare providers attending to our food holes, treating and preventing major problems and horrible pain, and sometimes even detecting stuff that's not directly their facet of work like EDs, reflux, cancers, wild shit like that 10/10 important and amazing
Or B. I love money soooooo much please give me some to bleach your mouth and put large strips of very painful metal to make your bite bones more aesthetic angles and also make you feel bad about everything you've ever done in your life
#not to say that there aren't times for braces or that cosmetic stuff can't ever be helpful to people because they 100% can#but I think there's a big difference between *offering* those services bc they could be helpful#and *insisting* on rendering those services bc people feel bad about their mouth looks and you'll make bank on it#dentist#shower thoughts#kind of#idk what you'd call that#just something I was thinking about ig#my teeth are quite healthy but I do have what I call "mad hatter teeth'' like Jervis Tetch on BTAS. I've gotten *many* offers for braces#bit in my adolescence I watched my friend at the time go through *horrible* pain from her braces just to straighten them a bit#for no medical reason. She couldn't eat she had ear infections pain after each appointment at one point they broke her jaw a bit I think#for straighter teeth. that was all. Nothing fucking else#I chose not to get them and I stand by that with no big problems yet#and I get offering someone braces/invisilign once or twice so they know it's an option. I'm a reasonable guy#but EVERY fucking time at my old dentist they tried to wheedle me into them with aesthetics and pretend health scares#that my new one has mysteriously not mentioned *once*.#You'd think potential mouth cancer from the bump of my bottom teeth they mentioned#(AFTER mentioning that they sold invisilign and could make an appointment for me to get some)#would transfer providers but no. Somehow not.

shoutout to walmart for doing more for my community than the government officials are
#the situation here is being handled so poorly 👍#there was a news article i read that listed everything city officials said they were doing#but have given no evidence or proof of ACTUALLY doing and the article said they would continue reaching out#bc the officials were not responding to them#it took fucking KEMP for us to finally request federal aid#we weren't under a state of emergency until 2 hours AFTER the hurricane hit#i just#its fucking ridiculous#but there are some walmarts providing water hot meals wifi spots charging stations#abd i saw shower and layndry services listed as well ???#while the city gave out water twice in a location that was out of the way for much of the city#during a time when getting gas is a 4+ hour trip#while we're under a curfew#AND they cut our water for 2 days while none of us had power and it was 80-90F outside daily#now we're on a boil advisory#which again so much of the city can't do without POWER#but at least i could shower so long as i was careful jfjsjcj#anyway#yeah. YEAH.#fuck this city fuck our government fuck our mayor#hopefully biden approves our request for assistance and then maybe we can actually get something happening down here#sorry i just#i read about the walmart stuff and remembered all of the nothing happening from our government#and got angry#also i went to one of the water things they did yesterday and ended up just driving home bc the line was SO LONG#and like i get it i do but maybe idk have more than one set up in different areas??#or have it last longer than an hour or two????#idk. idk. im annoyed.#shh ac

Oh my god I’ve been so wrapped up in looking at the small subtle ableism that is present in our world that I forgot that violent, loud, and boldly cruel ableism exists
#my thoughts#writing this paper on autism in public libraries and I read a line in a study that mentioned#that librarians have trouble promoting programs for different disabled groups due to stigma#and I was like :O oh yeah I forgot how horribly cruel people can be about something objectively good (providing inclusive services that#benefit disabled people)

ok thats it i literally need a new job now .
#i know i bitch and moan a lot abt my job. but not without good reason!#however i really want to get out of here now today.#fucking. supervisor who keeps telling me to do more as far as maintaining the coffee area#when 90% of the issues are actually fault of the dumbass stock traders we make coffee for who dont know how to make a cup of coffee#and cant clean up after themselves. and i get that its my job but this is also just fucking stupid#and normally she tells me this stuff in the area where i brew the coffee which is more or less away from people#its at least more away from people than the hallway where the coffee station is where people always are#which is where she chose to loudly tell me more things i should be doing#maybe don't fucking do that in front of the people i do this stuff for! now they think im a fucking idiot!#like that's just. idk kind of unprofessional to me like you don't lecture your employees in front of customers#if we're so concerned abt the appearance and image of the service we provide (which this place is concerned way too much with)#then idk maybe talking abt that kind of stuff should be done more privately. or at least quietly#like she wasnt yelling at me but like everyone around could clearly hear it#but like ive said before i cant standddddd this job anymore.#so i might apply for that store leader job at gregorys coffee#even though the work culture there seems like a different kind of annoying#id at least be making Much More and also closer to where i live so#i just have to fix up my resume and make it seem like i can handle more of a management kinda job
