they should not put ads on the dog tv (eight hours of birds) i put on for my dog to watch. she doesn't understand capitalism. she doesn't even understand that the birds aren't really there in the room with her. sometimes she tries to bite the ipad when a really funky one shows up. you can't advertise to her. she's not going to buy a swiffer wet jet

Harry can pull more than 500lb, attached by a rope, with just his upper body. It is actually freakish.

He trained very, very hard for the movie. Every day, in fact. He is the guy that most guys hate because he is good at everything.

been stewing on an analytical approach to fiction which I call "is this book afraid of me?" and in order to answer this question you determine how hard the book is trying to make sure you don't come after the writer on twitter

ppl use "death of the author" to mean fucking anything they want on this site. i've seen people use it to fucking defend transmisogynistic jokes in movies??? thats literally the opposite of Death of the Author. thats Death of the Text. that's just not engaging with the conversation.

okay but the real comedy of 1D’s rise in america is how the label tried so hard to package them for the conservative teen girl market. like “these british boys are SAFE. they date girls. they wear blazers. they smile a lot. moms will love them. daughters will love them. no gay stuff here, folks.”

they tried to closet the queer and sell the clean-cut. all to make them palatable for midwestern walmart aisles.

and then—and then—they wrote the gayest songs known to man. like “i can’t love you in the light so i’ll suffer in the dark” levels of gay. they slapped the word “girl” in there like it was a get-out-of-closet-free card and called it a day. whole albums that are just “everyone else thinks it’s wrong but i don’t care” and “this love is forbidden but i’d burn the world for it.” sir. what.

like imagine trying to sell your product to traditional families and instead creating a generation of gay girls who heard "they don't know about the things we do" and went “wait. oh.”

congratulations. your conservative brand campaign just made the soundtrack to thousands of sexual awakenings.

the corrupt industry works hard but gay subtext works harder.

i say this in all seriousness, a great way to resist the broad cultural shift of devaluing curiosity and critical thinking is to play my favorite game, Hey What Is That Thing

you play it while walking around with friends and if you see something and don't know what it is or wonder why its there, you stop and point and say Hey What Is That Thing. and everyone speculates about it. googling it is allowed but preferably after spending several minutes guessing or asking a passerby about it

weird structures, ambiguous signs, unfamiliar car modifications, anything that you can't immediately understand its function. eight times out of ten, someone in the group actually knows, and now you know!

a few examples from me and my friends the past few weeks: "why is there a piece of plywood sticking out of that pond in a way that looks intentional?" (its a ramp so squirrels that fall in to the pond can climb out) • "my boss keeps insisting i take a vacation of nine days or more, thats so specific" (you work at a bank, banks make employees take vacation in long chunks so if youre stealing or committing fraud, itll be more obvious) • "why does this brick wall have random wooden blocks in it" (theres actually several reasons why this could be but we asked and it was so you could nail stuff to the wall) • "most of these old factories we drive past have tinted windows, was that just for style?" (fun fact the factory owners realized that blue light keeps people awake, much like screen light does now, so they tinted the windows blue to keep workers alert and make them work longer hours)

been playing this game for a long time and ive learned (and taught) a fuckton about zoning laws, local history, utilities (did you know you can just go to your local water treatment plant and ask for a tour and if they have a spare intern theyll just give you a tour!!!) and a whole lot of fun trivia. and now suddenly you're paying more attention when youre walking around, thinking about the reasons behind every design choice in the place you live that used to just be background noise. and it fuckin rules.

i think you can recognize that the usage of ai by students of all grades and all around the world to cheat through their assignments is not a personal moral failing but just yet another symptom of the mechanistic if not, at this point, basically dehumanized processes of our education systems which are nowadays almost solely focused on demanding production from students and churning out degrees required for jobs while ignoring any tangible verification of their actual knowledge, intellectual development and critical thinking skills, much less their mental health, while also pointing out that using ai to write your essay isn't a power move to cheat a flawed system, it is behaving exactly as the system designed, it is cheating yourself by giving up your ability to speak, think for and challenge yourself and bowing your head to powers who will only benefit from not being questioned, and the only reason text genai is so widespread right now is because it was born on the perfect breeding ground that is anti intellectualism
