It's a magical place!

“the arts and sciences are completely separate fields that should be pitted against each other” the overlap of the arts and sciences make up our entire perceivable reality they r fucking on the couch

Finding clothes in Morrowind be like

One's clothes are my clothes... especially if it's extravagant clothes

I think taking his clothes should be a canonical moment of the game playthrough

It’s like that mafia crew that made a pizza joint as a front but their pizza was so good they just went legit

Did You Know: Dagoth Ur urged Nerevar to destroy Kagrenac's Tools before they could unleash more evil on the world? While Nerevar agreed with that course of action, he instead insisted on consulting with the Tribunal first, leaving Dagoth Ur with the final command: "Stay here, loyal Dagoth Ur, until I return."

this is hilarious

i'm in my 50s and i will do whatever i want. i will consume media for kids, for teens, for adults. i will listen to songs i like whether they were released in 1980 or 2022. i will jump in puddles and balance along walls and swing at the park. i will work hard and write complex python code and do my taxes. i will wear pink and black and glitter and well ironed slacks and cardigans and sequinned doc martens and dungarees with dinosaur print. i will eat icecream for breakfast and steamed vegetables for lunch and nap in the afternoon and watch let's play videos on youtube at night. i will peform regular maintenance on my car and pay my bills and go to the dentist and listen to music really loud when i'm driving and tell myself fairytales before i go to sleep.

please, for the love of god or yourself or the universe, don't give yourself ridiculous limits and make your life any more grey than it has to be in this world.

Be like Old Loki. Build your glowing dream Asgard. Live in a bowling alley. Keep an alligator as your best friend. he got it. he understood the assignment.

I am 52 years old and I will consume any media I want, wear whatever the fuck I want, and do what I want. All those fucking stupid articles about Things Women Over 50 (or 40, or 30) should never wear, can go die in a fire. Do what makes you happy and ignore people who are all But YOU’re tOo OOOOOLLLLD for that. No. You’re too nosy for that and you have no say over my life. If I decide my fashion dream is to wear Gothic Lolita, PVC dresses, or a fucking pikachu onesie, you can just stfu and deal.

Exactly! Galaxy Rangers are forever.

(rolling eyes) And don’t make C. S. Lewis tap the sign again, ffs.

“When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”

(and these days he might add to the put-away list “the fear of appearing cringe”.)

Herzog was real for this

musk is going to die in a Tesla explosion in 6 months after sticking his nose where it doesn't belong and we will never get a conclusive answer on whether it was a CIA car bomb or just a normal Tesla malfunction

Like to charge, reblog to cast

When I became freelance, one of my first marketing contracts was fixing my boss' blog posts and articles that he had 'written' with ChatGPT.

It was the single most soul-sucking task I have ever done in my life. I could have ghostwritten it for them faster than it took me to edit it.

ChatGPT would often hallucinate features of the product, and often required more fact-checking than the article was worth.

It is absolutely no surprise that 77% of employees report that AI has increased workloads and lowered productivity, while 96% of executives believe it has boosted it.

The reality is that it's only boosted the amount of work employees have to do which leads to increased burnout, stress and job dissatisfaction.

In the words of Cory Doctorow, AI can't do your job, but AI salesmen can convince your boss that AI can do your job.

terfs posting their Ls

its nice to see stuff like this because it reminds you that theyre actually the weird ones. their rhetoric just relies on them portraying themselves as "voices of the people" fighting for what no one else will stand up for, despite most people probably thinking their behavior is embarrassing and not worth it. open terfs, racists, nazis, homophobes, misogynists, general transphobes- are all just extremely pissed off and angry minorities that make it everyone else's problem as much as they possibly can so that they seem bigger than they are. that doesnt mean they arent dangerous, it just means we can win. we've got a fighting chance against these losers.

just a loud, annoying, whiny ass minority of morons

Dragonborn: "Aren't you coming to Highpoint Tower?"

Neloth: "Me? No. Highpoint Tower will be filled with monsters and traps. It's much safer for me to risk your life. Don't worry. If you die, I'll find some other way to take care of Ildari. Be sure to bring back an amusing story of how Ildari died."

I really thought this was going to have an inspirational ending. And it certainly did.

Some days it’s really hard to express how much I love the internet and all its wonderful random pop culture obsessions.

They're trying so hard to make this a culture war thing instead of a class consciousness moment.

If you are a British/UK citizen, there is currently a petition running (with only 125 signatures) that ends in June 2025. The petition calls for the government to make it so that you do not need a diagnosis of gender dysphoria to change your gender.

If you are a British/UK citizen, and would like to sign:

If you're not a British/ UK citizen it'd be much appreciated if you could share this post !! :)

You can also sign it if you're a UK resident - you spend 6 months or more in a 12 month period living in the UK. No need to be a citizen.

This means that if you have a visa, EU settlement status, indefinite leave to remain etc. you can still sign it and it'll be valid
