Grandmas were so right about puzzles and knitting and crocheting and solitaire and reading slow and slippers and baking and watching deer in the backyard send post

Top-Tier Villain Motivations

They will be safe. It doesn't matter who else or what else burns as long as They will be safe.

I will be safe. The hunger and the cold will never touch me again.

Fuck any bitch who's prettier(/cooler/better-liked/better at making dumplings) than me.

Yes, Master

Love me. Love me. Love me. Love me. LOVE ME!

I know the terrible things these so-called "heroes" will do if I don't stop them (<- is absolutely wrong)

I don't want a better future, I want a better past!

No other way to get performance art funded these days

As much as I do love boobs, they are entirely a social construct. I really think we need a strong revival in the free the nipple movement because the concept of topless nudity existing for some people but not others is frankly insane. The breasts of fat men, men who have gynecomastia, are allowed to be seen, despite being more or less the same anatomy as afab people with breasts. In order for an afab trans person to be topless, they must get a surgery to remove breast tissue BUT if a cis woman gets the same surgery (double masectomy) for health or personal reasons while still identifying as a woman they can NOT be topless! The enforcement of topless nudity laws is unclear, based largely on opinion and used selectively to hurt minority groups (see: the trans woman who was denied a legal gender marker change and decided to go topless as a result, then was arrested for being topless despite the fact that in the eyes of the law she was a man)

Not expalining WHY bookburning is bad and WHAT books were targeted has left us with Bookworm uwu girlies treating any art project or act involving destorying/modifying any random ass mass printed novel as if it was a crime against humanity

The Legend brainrot is real

Violet star Dancing on bloodied golden goddess fingertips Forged to suffer Forced to fight even as light bleeds from your existence Goddess child Broken by cruelty in world of endless pain Heartless one They mark you despite your effort and ceaseless strain Where is rest When for all you give and give and lose forever Where is love When for their joy your heart repeatedly you sever Rabbit heart Sacrificed for them on stone of past sacred grounds Broken soul Happy child that was, to where have you disappeared now?

“Imagine what it would look like if ChatGPT were a lossless algorithm. If that were the case, it would always answer questions by providing a verbatim quote from a relevant Web page. We would probably regard the software as only a slight improvement over a conventional search engine, and be less impressed by it. The fact that ChatGPT rephrases material from the Web instead of quoting it word for word makes it seem like a student expressing ideas in her own words, rather than simply regurgitating what she’s read; it creates the illusion that ChatGPT understands the material. In human students, rote memorization isn’t an indicator of genuine learning, so ChatGPT’s inability to produce exact quotes from Web pages is precisely what makes us think that it has learned something. When we’re dealing with sequences of words, lossy compression looks smarter than lossless compression.”

recently I have seen a ton of threads on reddit along the lines of, "can non-smokers really tell if someone smokes cigarettes?" or "do non-smokers think everyone who smokes cigarettes smells?"

yes. people with half decent smelling abilities (I would say ye average person who can smell) are able to tell not only if someone is a smoker, but if they live with a smoker or have been around someone smoking cigarettes recently. cigarette smell is awful, it gets into the clothes, it gets into hair, it gets into paper, it gets all over the skin. it seems like people who are around cigarette smoke a lot stop noticing the smell.

just about everyone who can smell (and is not a smoker) notices cigarette smell. it is extremely potent. cigarette smell, even just leftover in clothes, is a common trigger for asthma and other types of breathing problems, and perfumes to cover up the smells can often just make that worse, make someone breathing it sicker, and bring more attention to something that absolutely reeks. a lot of smokers do not realize just how terrible they smell until they stop smoking.

I have ordered fountain pen parts that CLEARLY came from somewhere someone was smoking cigarettes. most of the package was plastic or metal, but there were a few tiny sheets of paper. talking, a few inches by a few inches. the total size of an index card or two. just those few sheets of paper reeked so fucking bad that first I got really sick, and I had to put those parts into a sealed container for months with some baking soda until they stopped smelling so fucking bad and stopped making me so fucking sick. I have no idea just how someone could feel comfortable selling something that stunk that fucking awful, but I guess the people who sent it to me either smoke too much to tell how much their products fucking reek, or they just genuinely did not give a single fuck.

cigarette smoke really, really, really stinks. even if it was from days, weeks, or months ago.
