man sometimes friendship really is just "I saw this and knew it would give you psychic damage. please respond with agony" and then they do. and it's great

actually I think you should be normal about ordinary citizens of authoritarian countries and yes that applies even to that country you're thinking of right now

let’s be real the pressure to use AI as an adult is exactly what they said the pressure the do drugs as a teenager would be like but the people that told us that caved immediately for the AI and definitely did not just say no

i honestly don't really understand why "some people prefer watching gameplay online rather than playing games themselves" is treated as such a taboo when being a spectator is considered a pretty mundane way to engage with most sports, game shows, reality tv or even just like. chess.

we gotta get back to torrent distribution, i just watched someone eat eight grand in bandwidth charges because they ran a direct-download piracy site with local file hosting through cloudflare. torrents were invented literally for this exact reason

Fun how the bystander effect was coined to cover up how cops are bigoted cowards who let a queer person die and stockholm syndrome was coined to cover that the cops handled a hostage situation so badly the hostages trusted their captors more than the cops.

The older i get the more i understand why some people become obsessed with privacy, not because they’re hiding something, but because being constantly perceived starts to feel spiritually exhausting.

A bit of a nothingburger post but, something I found very cute about Euini is that he calls Richeh and Agott with the "-san" honorific but the girls don't use any for him 😂 and it's even funnier because it's highly implied that he's older than them. Oh my rude girls and polite boy, I love them 😂💖

I genuinely believe so much of queer discourse can be traced back to "one person of a specific minority wronged me personally, so now I assume that everyone of that specific minority are categorically evil."

I think a large percentage of the queer community (and I would argue the larger progressive community) has never truly reckoned with their own capacity for bigotry, and instead have assumed that because they are a minority they *can't* be prejudice. This makes them incredibly susceptible to bigoted thinking and it's a huge problem. The queer community is shockingly bigoted and hateful, ranging from racism to sexism to transphobia to anything else you care to mention, and in many ways it just keeps getting worse because people respond to any criticism with "you are calling me, a whole ass trans woman, transphobic" and don't even try to improve.
