loving sam's "glib little imp" era

the thing that bothers me with 7 deadly sin based characters is when they cant decide if they embody the sin by suffering from it or by drawing it out of others. ie. if your gluttony demon is a guy who loves eating then your lust demon should be a gooner sex pest. and if your lust demon is a seductive girlboss then your gluttony demon should be a 5 star chef. does this make sense.

ok but i think the person in the screenshot is actually doing a genius bit

bc so often you see big posts about how "actually this character from an East Asian piece of media can't be trans because that country is conservative" and I think this is doing that in reverse to show how silly posts like that are

post-apocalyptic gang like the kings, the gang that worship elvis from fallout new vegas, except they’re all skaters who worship tony hawk

In theory I do sometimes think that like, egg speculation and forcefem jokes and stuff like that can sometimes be a little overbearing and pushy and sometimes even a little misdirected in a way we ought to think about more but in practice any time I try to put this principle into action and step in to say "come on girls, leave him alone" the guy in question always comes out with some shit like "thanks Alexa, they're always so mean to me when I'm just trying to do my normal cisgender hobby of making OCs that are basically just me as a girl and getting kind of sad for some reason when I look at them" and I'm just like come on man don't do this to me.

I had an upsetting dream last night.

I had a dream that Pepsi released a candy called “Pepsi Particles” that were caviar sized, spherical pepsi logos that fizzed in your mouth. The packaging was a blue and silver pouch with a pepsi logo surrounded with rings like an atom, there were crystal pepsi and pepsi blue flavors as well. I can’t stop thinking about them.

I’m the world’s worse advocate for wasps. Everytime I see people repeating bees=nice good pollinators wasps=bad stinging meanies, I face a deep internal struggle trying to explain how they are important to the environment without explaining wasp facts that freak them out in ways they never even thought

an interesting linguistics find! so I'm reading this text from 1908 and it keeps referencing "hp" in the context of "not being at full hp" "applying your full hp to a task" etc

and I'm like....... okay that is a perfectly normal way to describe energy and reads totally clear to me, but I KNOW you don't mean hit points/health points which is the first place my brain goes, so what are YOU using hp to mean

and it's not explained in-text, which means it was common enough to not warrant explanation to the 1908 audience, so gotta look elsewhere

horsepower. turns out it's horsepower.

and I'm absolutely FASCINATED that a commonly used initialism from 1908 now stands for something different AND YET the contextual meaning is still the same to a 21st-century reader

I could hand this guy my nintendo switch and he'd be like, ah yes I understand, this ''''pokemon'''' loses horsepower throughout the fight

language is amazing

when you grew up as a lonely uncool girl it will never stop haunting you by the way. you will meet a cool person at a bar or the train station or at a friend's party and you can wear your most stylish outfit and striking eye makeup and you will swear that they can see through all of the facade and see the lonely terribly insecure teenage girl you used to be who desperately wanted to connect and you will swear that they know that there is like an insurmountable gap between you. this will happen forever

Lmfaooooo me deciding every character with black hair and brown eyes is Asian no matter what. But really what got me was the assigned worksheet at the end

Everytime you say something like "if we don't have an objective metaphysical moralist system then whats stopping people from killing people" you just sound like an evangelical.
