northernlion was reading out a sweet note his daughter wrote him in kindergarten that said "i know my dad loves me because he's my favorite person and i'm his favorite person" and someone commented "circular reasoning"

free museum trips are wasted on unappreciative middle schoolers. let me go

alternatively: i enjoy museums that do the "once a week we have a 21+ night so you can wander the museum with booze and without loud children around"

its quitters talk to stop scratching that itchy spot right before the scratching magically fixes everything. #never give up

beyond the reinforcement of beauty standards and body fascism like, idk how many people realize Botox is a specific brand name, and that brand in question has donated over $135,000 USD to Republican politicians in the past year alone. yknow the people that regularly vote to defund planned parenthood.

and another thing but like this is also why all feminists need to be pro fat liberation cuz shit like this puts pregnant fat people's lives at risk, even when they do access abortions they are often referred out to a hospital with a longer wait and a steeper bill, and often denied pain management. these stories coming out from fat women lately tryna access care alongside PP now selling the beauty standard to women feels interconnected and predatory.

yknow if you want people to reblog your posts about something you probably shouldn’t block all the people who would be really happy to reblog those posts. i would certainly like to reblog more stuff about tumblr banning trans women but unfortunately shinigami eyes says i’m Transfem Benito Mussolini or some shit ☹️

oh boy a really good informative thread about trans women's periods and how prostaglandins work! boy it would suck if i, as someone who talks about transfem periods a lot (given that i have one), couldn't reblog that for some reason because everyone on this website is more obsessed with stupid discourse than actually helping people! boy i would hate that so much

I'm going to temporarily slow down on forcefemming linux users to instead forcelinux trans people. My girlfriend still uses windows. When I come over to her place I'm going to show up with an installation media and use my feminine charm to make her install linux

when tf did this get a thousand notes

it's awkward that many people clearly have a visceral dislike of LLMs as a technology and every company involved in their promotion (although less so the actual people behind their development, that's more complicated), and it compels them to find LLMs deeply immoral in every possible way, even if these critiques would apply more strongly to other technologies that pass without notice.

There is (or at least was) a reciprocal relationship between content authors and youtube/google. You let google index your site and you get traffic. And you could block them through robots.txt. for youtube there were at least semi-serious competitors like vimeo. LLMs have none of the consent or reciprocity

YouTube wouldn't have achieved its current level without pervasive copyright infringement though, and early search engines including Google were often considered to be infringing copyright by "deep linking"! some of that even had to be hashed out in the courts.
