“ikr i only use it for-“ whatever you use chatgpt for is also embarrassing. you do not need the plagiarism machine that lies and evaporates water for anything actually
I do not need the ecologically disastrous bullshit generator. I can generate my own ecologically responsible bullshit. Free range fair trade bullshit.
Ok but can we talk about how intense the dynamic between Tyler and Wednesday actually is??
Like it’s not cute. It’s not soft. It’s this weird magnetic pull that makes everything in the room feel different the second they look at each other.
It’s the way he looks at her — not soft, but focused. Like she’s something he’s trying to figure out and can’t stay away from at the same time. Literally nobody else looks at her like that. Not curious. Not scared. Just… drawn in.
And the wild thing is: she looks back the same way.
No smiles. No romantic clichés. Just two people staring at each other like they already know exactly how the other one could destroy them — and still not pulling away.
That’s why Wyler hits so hard for me. It’s not about how much screen time they have. It’s the tension, the silence, the way every scene feels like something is about to happen even when they’re not saying a single word.
That kind of chemistry doesn’t come from writing. That’s pure energy.
Wyler isn’t soft. It’s intense as hell — and I’m obsessed with it.
never thought i’d be saying this as a nepali person but the rest of the world has a lot to learn from nepal when it comes to revolution lol
young people literally spent two days showing the full force of their wrath against a horrific, corrupt system run by politicians that embezzled away every single cent of citizen money. they protested, and when the cops turned to violence, they did too. many of the biggest and most corrupt politicians (including the prime minister) were forced to resign, had their houses swarmed by crowds of furious people, were beat within an inch of their lives, and had their money thrown out onto the streets.
real, actual change is on the way in a country plagued by exploitation and poverty and corruption for DECADES because the population rallied together behind the sheer force of the young population and their anger - so much so that it’s being called the gen z revolution. THIS is how revolutions come about when every attempt to use peaceful means is met with bullets and suppression and social media bans in an effort to shut people up. and i think the west has a lot to learn about what true revolution and true progression is, because the way that our political discourse is so weak and watered down and pushed to be ‘friendly’ and ‘understanding’ is so pathetic at times. THERE IS NO NEGOTIATING WITH YOUR OPPRESSORS.
‘all forms of political violence is bad’ read it and weep losers
You’re out at dyke night at a local queer bar with a bunch of other trans women you’re friends with, and you run into a person you know from the gym. They’re more than an acquaintance but not quite a friend, and plenty of the girls in your group know them too, so they sit down and chat. They’re nonbinary and TME, and they’ve been generally chill about hanging with the trans women in your group.
The conversation meanders and eventually lands on trans topics, and almost unprompted they pipe up and say how it’s unfortunate that some trans women retain their male-privileged mindset after transition and remain selfish and domineering and misogynistic. You’re stunned, and you take a second to process that they really felt OK saying that at a table full of trans women. You reply that you know tons of trans women and none of them are like that. By this time another one of the girls is tuning into the conversation and asks what we’re talking about. Gym enby repeats their claim about “some” trans women, seemingly unaware that they are saying something bigoted. The other girl is similarly taken aback at hearing one of the worst stereotypes about us dropped into conversation so casually. She also says that she knows plenty of trans women and none of them are like that.
When pressed, the person admits that they believe this because a trans woman they knew once treated them terribly. One personal experience is apparently justification enough for them to form broad generalizations of an entire group of people they share a community with.
You want to have fun at dyke night, so you decide not to derail the evening into a discussion of just how fucking transmisogynistic that was, and instead you pretend to hear something interesting from a conversation happening at the other end of the table and jump into that. The enby hangs around for a bit but you don’t talk to them again for the rest of the night. You’re not looking forward to seeing them in the gym next week.
You’re at the hairdressers, you have a brand new person doin your hair and she’s (transmasc, went on T shortly after this, continued to use she/her pronouns as long as I knew her) been pretty cool so far and really helped with getting your hair towards a place that gives good gender feelings, despite the fact that you haven’t had a haircut for 4 years at this point. You’re bonding over your shared experiences being kinda slutty polyamorous lesbians. Suddenly, she’s talking about a transfem person that she’s not quite dating and says something about how “obviously almost every trans woman is a clusterfuck” (it doesn’t even make that much sense used that way, I know) and how she thinks you sound like you’re an exception to that. Stunned, unsure of how to reply, and not wanting to insult someone in the middle of cutting your hair by breaking that down, you very diplomatically say something about how you’re not quite sure what she means and how that hasn’t entirely been your experience. She says that it holds true for most that she’s met, you counter that most people are and she says something about how “yeah but it’s different for trans women y'know?”. The haircut finishes and you still tip 25% cause you don’t want to be a bad person. You get another haircut from her 6 months later cause better the devil you know. You’re sure not gonna feel safe gossiping about your love life again though huh.
XKCD perfectly summarising human experience again.
this guy posted this video called “unethical money making hacks” and was like “i’m selling bullshit art!” and he was buying prints from kmart and covering them in joint compound and making interesting shapes in the joint compound and then selling it as “textured wall art” like sorry bro that’s just regular art you made art i know it feels like bullshit but you’re actually just making art rn
i know it feels like bullshit because you spent five minutes on it and you don’t think it looks like real art but i regret to inform you you made real art and you’re just being an artist rn and if someone is willing to pay you $200 for it it’s not a scam that’s just what art is like
that guy with the urinal is laughing his ass off at you rn sorry bud
If youre trans, this video is a good ref to start with and she provides links and organizations that can help
also have a designated medical power of attorney. even worse than your shitty parents getting control of your estate is your shitty parents getting control of your still-living but incapacitated body.
no, having a chill adult sibling isn’t enough, it still defaults to parents for some dumbass reason even if your parents are old as balls. if you want your chill adult sibling to be your emergency decisionmaker, get it in writing.
Talk to someone about life insurance. I don’t care how young and healthy you are, you are one beer truck away from lifetime disability or funeral expenses. Do what you can within your means to avoid saddling your loved ones with the bill.
as a severely mentally ill 14 year old, I remember thinking “the medical system would treat me better if I was physically ill and not mentally ill” and then I coincidentally developed multiple chronic illnesses and found out that actually they dgaf even when you’re essentially bedridden
The filter relies on manually curated open-source blocklists, including the ‘nuclear’ list, provided by uBlockOrigin and uBlacklist Huge AI Blocklist,” DuckDuckGo said in a post on X. “While it won’t catch 100% of AI-generated results, it will greatly reduce the number of AI-generated images you see.

Another tip for DDG - if you want to permanently get rid of DDG’s AI features (which you can turn off in settings, but only temporarily) - for now you can just use noai.duckduckgo.com as your search engine. Works as advertised in the name.
I know I sound like your mom but you kids need to stop fucking vaping
1) Vaping is confirmed to cause cancer. Vaping coats the lungs with toxic substances, such as heavy metals and benzene, which are known to cause cancer
2) Many vapes contain diacetyl, which, when inhaled causes popcorn lung, or scarring of the lung
3) Ultrafine particles, when being inhaled, can be lodged in the trachea (not good!)
4) Ultrafine particles can also constrict the arteries in the lungs potentially causing A HEART ATTACK
5) Vaping is relatively new. Not much studies have been done in comparison to tobacco. Plus, the vaping companies are powerful people. There is a large chance that they are purposely downplaying and even burying any evidence that vaping is harmful - just like the tobacco companies before them. They do not care about you, or your health, or the truth. They only care for money
Also STOP VAPING INDOORS AROUND OTHER PEOPLE. Holy shit, if you’re gonna wreck your lungs at least give me the option not to wreck mine.
It’s such an issue that the MTA had to run a campaign about it
yeah okay ill reblog that
Please I’m begging yall as an asthmatic, your fruit-flavored vapor will still give people around you who are smoke-sensitive attacks. So will weed. Don’t do it inside; if you’re at a bus stop or something try to not stand right next to people or move downwind of them if you can.
And don’t do it in your fucking apartment. Newsflash, it doesn’t stay there! It goes into others’ apartments around your complex, such as mine, where we either suffocate with closed windows, or have to have an asthmatic child suck on your cotton candy cloud of death!
