Just saw someone with “use whatever pronouns you use for yourself for me” in bio. I honestly never considered the depth the pronoun metagame could have, we’ve barely scratched the surface with this shit

i've been phasing the phrase 'google it' out of my vocabulary and going back to 'look it up'. fuck you youve lost your generic trademark privileges

Bonus: If I buy a book I get to keep it! The publisher can't turn up at my house at random and confiscate all the books I bought.

​y'all ever wonder why people aren’t just like. nice to each other

Maybe that’s why the so-called friendliest countries are often the ones either with really good social safety nets (so less background radiation worry), or the ones that have culturally built-in de-stressing methods (so ways to keep a more even keel)…

"only a poor artisan blames his tools" is such bullshit, in almost every imaginable line of work the quality of the tools you have access to plays a massive role in the quality of the end product, sometimes in excess of the role played by individual skill! For example, some people have to code in javascript

I wonder if being bullied as a kid has any inoculating factors? like "I can do this now, because I could do this at 4 feet tall" type stuff. or does it just permanently make you into a quivery little prey animal? much to consider.

This is not new. Several years ago, the creators of Phineas and Ferb had issues with Dropbox for the same reason: they got copyright struck on private files of their own show, because they got picked up by Dropbox’s content ID system. MOST cloud providers use tools like content ID to scan uploaded files, EVEN PRIVATE ONES, for copyright infringement or “objectionable” content. Do NOT trust the cloud, under any circumstances, with anything potentially pirated, questionable, or as your sole backup. There’s nothing wrong with using cloud storage for convenience, but it should never be your only copy, and it should be totally avoided with pirated or copyrighted content. This is part of the reason I have harped so hard on not storing the TPK leaks in Google Drive as a long term solution. They will get nuked eventually, they’re in contentID now.

PREV IS EXACTLY CORRECT LISTEN TO PREV

I was going to suggest fettuccini but twisted with the ends connected to form a Möbius strip, but then I realized that would fuck like hell.

My grandfather did this. He would always talk to me like he cared about what I was saying. He listened to me like whatever I was talking about was the most important thing in the world.
