This is incredibly funny without context

On the issue of the recent UK online “safety” act.

KEEP THE PRESSURE UP

IT MIGHT NOT HIT ITS GOAL BEFORE GOING INTO AFFECT, BUT EVEN THEN KEEP GOING

YOU CAN GET IT REPEALED IF YOU KEEP FINDING WAYS TO SHARE IT

KEEP SHARING THE PETITION, KEEP SIGNING IT, KEEP THE PRESSURE UP AND IT CAN BE TAKEN AWAY

EVEN IF YOU'RE NOT IN THE UK

KEEP FUCKING SHARING IT

SO MANY PEOPLE ARE GOING TO LOSE THEIR COMMUNITIES FROM THIS, AND IT WILL DO MORE HARM THAN GOOD

KEEP PUSHING IT. KEEP FIGHTING THIS. GET THIS TAKEN AWAY.

"you can use ai to improve spelling and grammar"

[niamo]

Btw as someone who needs people to repeat themselves a lot, if we’re on the fourth repeat and you slow down in a really patronizing way I hate you just as much as people who go “oh never mind”

[niamo]

I wish people were more patient with people who have hearing issues. I'm sorry I couldn't hear you but also you need to learn some compassion and patience <3

I'm HoH and have to use subtitles for pretty much everything. lazy subtitles make me wish there were no subtitles at all so I wouldn't have even started to watch the show to begin with.

its like the people doing the captions either think we're stupid enough to not notice that the words don't match what the mouths are doing, even though i and many, many deaf/HoH people lipread every day and i would say that makes one damn good at it, or they're just ai generated which is equally insulting. DO BETTER PLEASEEE

happy disability pride month and once again, FUCK lazy subtitles. fuck the [speaks foreign language] instead of actually transcribing the words, fuck shortening sentences and changing whats been said for no reason, fuck censoring swearing in captions but not in audio and fuck anyone who says youre being 'too sensitive' for being upset about a lack of accessibility

A translation of British sayings, what non-British people think they mean, and their actual meaning.

Why isn't "too scary" a good enough reason to never drive a car

[niamo]

maybe i like my tech a little bit inconvenient

[niamo]

the world is so suffocatingly shit right now. you have to face it head on, because nothing will change without people to facilitate that change.

i just hope that everyone has some small bit of comfort that will help them out when they are feeling hopeless or low, no matter how stupid or small it might seem.

its technically a little late now for my weird headcanon wednesday, but im not quite done.

Witchers are basically immortal until killed, right? (just let me have this one) Thats a long time and can get lonely, so they get one vial each of a life increasing potion. It’s intended for pets, so Geralt and Eskel used theirs on Roach and Lil Bleater respectively then forgot all about it.

Lambert looked at his and said “how can i cause the most drama with this” so he waited. 

Then Geralt brought home a bard. 

Lambert gives him the potion and Jaskier, once it’s explained, is happy to be a lab rat and source of drama.

It’s been fifteen years but Lambert is sure Geralt will figure it out any day now.

…

(Vesemir used his on a battered and ugly old tom cat that wanders the halls. He says he hates it and wants it gone but on afternoons he can be found fast asleep in his chair in front of the fire with the cat curled up on his chest. He calls it Oy. As in “Oy, you! Don’t do that!”)
