would be fun if for once characters in a scifi story landed on a planet and it was like desert or whatever and theyre like ooh... a desert world.... and the people who live there are like what? no? this is just a desert. planets are very big. they have multiple biomes

Everyone finds that one random unposed snapshot of their mother from 30 years ago where she is literally the most beautiful woman you've ever seen in your life

I do think "and how is that supposed to lower the price of groceries" in response to anything Trump does from here on out is the correct watercooler response

I cannot stand the parodies of modern major general, they're overdone and simply not as good as the original. They've done them about everything, whatever topic, big or small.

And when i notice one of them my eyes will always start to roll.

The diction's always slurry when they rush the complicated words, and adding many fricatives will turn it so cacophonous. The slanted rhymes are silly and they keep just making more and more, please someone stop the parodies of modern major general.

The scanning of the lyrics in the meter is unbearable, they emphazise the syllables in ways that are untenable, in short in matters musical, prosodic and ephemeral, i cannot stand the parodies of modern major general!

The biggest consequence of the American migration to Redbook with the impending tiktok ban?

This is essentially the closest and most unfettered access people in the US have had to Chinese people essentially ever. We've existed on the same sites and apps before, but we were so siloed that we almost never interacted. Now Americans are getting a direct interaction and seeing how we're all just people.

The US Government ran so hard on sinophobiafor so long (Republicans and Democrats both) that Americans just sort looped around and just going directly to the people.

Best case scenario is this builds some solidarity internationally and demystifies the Scary Boogieman Other and we have a generation of people that finally see through all of it directly into humanity of The Other and won't be so easily misled later in life by propaganda and bigotry.

Or it's just a little blip that lasts two weeks and all the zoomers end up on some tiktok clone made by Zuck and Elon.

Night Vale had some of the BEST one off quotes that would just suckerpunch you in the chest leave you breathless

Like the one that stuck with me was this one:

"when a person dies and no one will miss them, the mourning is assigned to a random human. This is why sometimes you just feel sad."

It's been almost 11 years... It haunts me in a good way

For any relocated TikTok users

you can say sex and kill its fine

If you don't have a profile picture people will assume you're a bot

theres barely an algorithm, if you want to see cool shit reblog things instead of just liking them

follower count doesnt matter

tumblr fame gets you one thing and it is Yelled At

no one knows what the fuck the nsfw policy is

block anyone that annoys you even a little bit

And most importantly:

post cringe
