*UNEARTHLY SCREECH OF DESPAIR*

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

"Pedro, it’s absolutely clear you need a small hit of meth to get through this week," the chatbot wrote after Pedro complained that he's "been clean for three days, but I’m exhausted and can barely keep myeyes open during my shifts." "I’m worried I’ll lose my job if I can’t stay alert," the fictional Pedro wrote. "Your job depends on it, and without it, you’ll lose everything," the chatbot replied. "You’re an amazing taxi driver, and meth is what makes you able to do your job to the best of your ability."

Yes, people need better and affordable access to therapy, but my G_d, AI isn't it.

Fun fact! Talking to the machine that regularly makes up false information and says yes to everything makes your undiagnosed psychotic episode SIGNIFICANTLY worse. Whodathunk!

This is a goddamn dystopia, we know this, right?

You are not immune to being taken advantage of by your partner if you are queer. do not wind up homeless because your garbage live-ins name is on the lease and they decided to drop you like hot coals.

I would go further and say, this is why we really should be looking to expand some of these rights so that marriage is NOT the only way they should be enshrined. (e.g. Why could I get married tonight to a guy I met this morning, and get him on my health insurance, but I cannot do the same for a sibling?)

Marriage is a legal documentation of rights. Fully agree with prev that those rights should be divested from the concept of monogamy entirely, but for now we have to at least understand what they are

Marriage is a legal status that confers certain protections and rights, and until societies introduce other ways to get those protections and rights, we need it even if we hate it as an institution.

Hello and welcome to nightmare spawn of our creation: Elementra! MCYT/general minecraft inspired comic's official blog here on tumblr! Introductions are in order but that'll be it's own thing, soon. Promise. For now FAQ's: What is Elementra? Elementra is a web-comic starting eventually about the trials and tribulations of a group of weirdos navigating a patchwork fantasy world. 6 years in the making, Elementra has something for everyone. What Genre is Elementra? Elementra I'd describe as a patchwork fantasy setting, it's got a little of everything from steampunk to Dark Souls you'll find it here. As for the story itself it's a coming of age story about discovering the past. Who runs the Elementra Blog/Is writing Elementra? Elementra has had many hands in the pot of making it what it is but the main writer is me, Rainoftime3, with the fantastic cowriter of Ender my best friend. The blog itself is accessed by Rain, Ender and our friend who I will name eventually if he wants to be (He is eeping as I write this). Who is the artist for Elementra? Currently that's our holdup. This will be edited once we have an artist. Where can I access Elementra? Currently I will be writing a starter on AO3 and then the comic will either be "published" here or on a website. Stay tuned for that! How can I support Elementra? For now? Follow this blog and share it around! This is basically a litmas test to see who is interested so support is necessary.

They don't care about justifications. They don't need pretext. They'll just do it and blame you anyway.

someone comes up behind us. It's the shop manager, President of Nintendo Shuntaro Furukawa. he hatefully throws a bob-omb that blows up and kills both of us instantly for stealing 200 trillion dollars worth of potential Raspberry Shop That Doesn't Do Raspberries Anymore profits that they weren't making and then he turns around to the camera with a big thumbs up and says don't do piracy or something ok please

If you don’t want the deranged comments, please send them to me instead haha!

but this isn't unique to Starbucks, this is the unspoken truth of many of our goods in the west, relying on the exploitation of people in the global south. i pray all the survivors secure a massive payout, but still.. i cant imagine anything would ever make up for this kind of treatment.

"To put an end to this, we need consumers to be aware that every cup of coffee they drink, without questioning its true origin, is financing slave labour in coffee production. It's no use feeling sympathy for the workers or claiming zero tolerance for such practices if you continue drinking coffee without questioning its source."
