those ads for ai integration on phones are so funny bc it seems like they cant. come up with that many use cases that arent already on a phone? "ask gemini to give you recipes when youre cooking!" "use our AI assistant to find the perfect gift for your girlfriend" yeah or i could just like. google it. you've spent millions on a slightly fancier version of an alexa. good job man.

There is a genre of annoying commenters on tiktok that refuse to even passively entertain the idea of Gigolas and it really burns my biscuits because its clear they do it bc Gimli isn’t “hot” enough for them. Bananas. They just cannot resist going out of their way to leave comments about how they don’t like the ship.

every time I mention how many days sober I am I appreciate people congratulating me and telling me to keep up the good work. it is nice. but I also wish that milestones in addiction recovery weren’t still so pinned to length of sobriety/abstinence
yeah yeah I’m 50 days sober who cares. how about the fact that, when I do drink, it tends to be nipped in the bud after two days nowadays instead of weeks or months? how about the fact that drinking has been condensed to a six pack because I’m at the end of my tether, instead of browning out every night? how about my friend who has decided to stop drinking alone, and is actually sticking to that? recovery doesn’t always look like sobriety and I wish it was more normal to talk about that. yknow. when addiction is normal to talk about at all

Sauron: I made a Ring.
Morgoth: Neat.
Sauron: But it’s EVIL.
Morgoth: …Okay?
Sauron: And if someone wears it, I CONTROL THEM.
Morgoth: Sounds cool, man.
Sauron: Also, I put a little poem on it.
Morgoth: …What?
Sauron: A little ✨ spooky ✨ poem. For the vibes.

Anyways, one of the un-explored aspects of Sam and Frodo's relationship that is kind of hinted at in the books, and is honestly the best thing about them is they're both fucking weirdos. Frodo in the books is a social outcast who keeps throwing giant birthdays for his probably dead uncle, and who walks around in the woods at night and loves languages and foreign histories and is always hanging around dwarves and wizards and trying to get information on what's going on outside the Shire, and he has zero interest in getting married or settling down because he's just been waiting for the opportunity to adventure outside the Shire. And Sam is a little bit more shy and socially anxious so he doesn't broadcast what a freak he is, but he so is. He's always in the tavern telling stories about dragons and talking trees, and he's been desperately trying to see elves in the woods and tells everybody about the time he thinks he almost saw an elf, and he is always at Bilbo's house listening to his stories and trying to learn how to read and write poetry like Bilbo does, while his dad is sitting there shaking his head like "that boy ain't right."
And then they start hanging out on their adventure and they're both like finding acceptance, and realizing that the other one gets their interests and understands their feelings. Nerd 4 Nerd. 10/10.

They should have a version of Duolingo where you can learn a language in the dialect of that language’s country bumpkins. I sound like a hick speaking English so why should I sound like an overly formal city slicker speaking Mandarin?

when a mutual has a bad take, it’s important to remember that nobody’s perfect. but when someone you don’t know has a bad take, it’s important to send a firing squad to their house

no actually i don't think antivaxxers' kids should die from a disease. i don't think gun advocates' kids should die in school shooting. children dying is bad actually, even if they're children of people you don't like.
