was really mad that the couches in the lobby at my work got removed :( then I remembered that most days I open there's someone sleeping on them, meaning someone reported that to housekeeping and their "solution" was to remove the couches entirely?? I was pissed about it, then noticed this sign today

the removal of comfort in public spaces to 'deter' homeless people impacts everyone

Imagine if there was someone using they/them pronouns and every time someone asks them why they do that, like isn't that a plural, they just look at the asker with the most deadpan expression and say "my parents were really poor when I was growing up. They couldn't afford to get us all our own pronouns so me and my siblings all had to share."

I wish to purchase goods and services without entering a blood covenant that entitles the provider to email and text me forever and also store a bunch of my personal data that they’re going to apologize for exposing in a breach in the next five to ten years

people vaguely saying 'the horrors' as shorthand for 'life problems, don't worry about it' in conversations where the problems are not going to be delved into has got to be one of my favorite new Ways Of Speaking that has emerged. like it's polite and vague and succinct enough for impersonal conversation but also extremely honest. it's very funny. The Horrors. we all know of them.

Do you have any tips for drawing Spider-Man? Whenever I try to draw him he always seems to lack that good spider-man energy.

Just for you, here is a very quick and dirty Draw Spider-Man Like Meg! Tutorial!

Step 1: Draw a superhero. Slap some big spidey eyeballs on the head for clarity! It’s his defining feature!

Step 2: Give him terrible posture.

Step 3: Now load that sucker down with a crippling anxiety disorder! Don’t forget to add his coping mechanism (the jokes).

Step 4: Now redraw every single one of his limbs pointing in different directions!

And there’s your Spidey!

Hi, I've been listening to the Lucky Day audiobook and I have a question. What's in a Virgin White Russian?

well the ingredients of a white russian are vodka, coffee liquor, heavy cream and ice

so a virgin white russian would be debatable how to make (what do you do with the coffee liquor?). but PERSONALLY what i would do if i was the bartender is probably just coffee, heavy cream, and ice although some bars have non alcoholic spirits so maybe some replacement fake vodka too

so either a HECK OF AN ORDER or maybe just a super confusing way to order a strange iced coffee

Thank you Derek, menswear guide, for reminding me why paying more to be free advertising for brands is dumb.

all my love to other autistic people who just know jack shit. the ones who have no "infodump" locked and loaded, nothing they can rattle off the top of their head. the ones who have a specific interest in certain things but still not knowing a lot about it. autistic people who will never be able to memorise fun facts about something no matter how fundamental it is to them as a subject. the point of autistic interests are not being a secret expert on random shit, you just like it a real big amount

while I don’t agree with that referring to men in their 30s-early 40s as “old man yaoi”, I UNDERSTAND why many people who primarily consume honest-to-goodness BL manga are quicker to call it that, because there is just such poor representation for men that aren’t hairless dehydrated 20-something twunks. They’re wrong, but I get why it happens.

I also understand that “middle-aged yaoi” isn’t as fun to say as “old man yaoi”, even when it’s more technically accurate.

So I would like to propose new vocabulary: Grown Ass Yaoi. yaoi that’s grown ass men. they’re not old but they’re not young adults either. you get me? Grown Ass Yaoi
