As these things will get buried before long if I don't do a little something to keep them organized, I'm making an official masterpost for all my characters, so when I do a profile on one I can link to it here.
So, without any further ado?
(and more to be added, if anyone gets interested in them.)
While i am all for the potential of AI for good (which so far we aren’t seeing sadly)
This is crazy. We should absolutely acknowledge the fact it is shameful not to be able to think 600 words by yourself. Someone deserves to fail so they can learn to do better if they cannot write a few paragraphs.
They want people to be helpless, drooling, slaves.
People today literally cannot do anything for themselves and trusting chatgpt for everything is going to make that so, so much worse.
Many of us are out here typing that on our phones, you can write or type that up in a few minutes. Quit being lazy. 😂
“Yet im still failing” hmmmm its a mystery
It's weird. These people are without critical thought at all. It's weird with this, "I can't write 600 words about anything". Really? I could write circles around some book writers about pointless nonsense. Would a lot of it be circular? Yes. But I could still very much do it. Some of my longer posts on here probably come close to 1000 or more. These people need to learn critical thinking and creative writing.
FUCK the Department of Education. And good riddance.
I'm going to put this out here. ONE of my OC posts is 2128 words, and I wrote it for an adult RP site. And it's only PART of my Mage profile.
My rather simple one for my gothbot? 801 words. My Dullahan? 854. Vampire? 468.
These are all just things I do for fun! But if I can write up some nonsense for my characters and hit 600 with little to no problems in far less than an hour?
Don't fucking lie, y'all would be insisting those were IDF soldiers in disguise and every source that said otherwise would be dismissed as Israeli propaganda. XD
Hamas actively filmed themselves kidnapping, murdering and raping people.
It got memory holed by you assholes within a DAY. Fuck, there were people making flags cheering it ON within 24 hours!
I mean it was only the actual inciting incident of this fucking conflict I don't know how you fuckers pretend this shit!
Maybe show the proof instead of relying on the witness testimony of the modern day SS.
You... Want me to show the proof of a anti-semitic group with deep and still existing ties to the Nazi's, instead of the witness testimony of...?
Like, I get that you quite probably are absolutely insane, so something like:
The Human Rights Watch doesn't mean anything to you. I mean, fuck, there is absolutely NO doubt or question about the existence of the filming of the attacks on October 7th, documented and noted, and you've memoryholled it so completely that you demand proof of it existing!
You literally are proof of my position.
No, I want you to show proof of Hamas militants filming themselves raping people instead of the witness testimony human shields meant to keep them in their concentration camp.
I don't care if some of the natives enacted revenge. I want you to substantiate the one claim you always make.
I note your goalpost move and refuse to bother with it, considering that you've openly positioned yourself that the descendants of the arabic invaders into the Levant are the 'natives'.
Like, you can argue something about 'well they've lived there for x amount of time' but your position is that the actual natives no longer count as natives because the people who drove them from their homeland have lived there long enough to usurp their position.
I mean, I'm not SURPRISED that this is your position, it kinda goes with the standard 'I am entirely ignorant as to the historical evidence of the past five decades but I am absolutely certain that what I choose to listen to is the real truth and anything else is propaganda' that's part and parcel with about everyone who shares your political worldview.
Like, I probably could quote actual members of Hamas's leadership and I'm absolutely certain you'd deny them to be real, so why would I bother to try and meet your constantly shifting goalposts?

Wanted to draw a angry kanaya and also wanted more practice with manga like coloring. It's interesting how to translate colors in black and white.
This week-long arc Peanuts arc ran when the measles vaccination was first developed and widely administered in 1967. GoComics republished it as part of their rerun strips late last year, but it could obviously stand to go around again.
Big slow claps to everyone who made a 50-year-old PSA relevant, good job everyone we’re doing GREAT
Not just for kids, but adults too - If you’ve received only one MMR in childhood, it may be time to get a booster. Many clinics and drugstores in the US will do them for free with insurance and at low cost without. Got mine last 4 months ago and had no trouble aside from a few hours of muscle ache in the arm. Please get vaccinated for COVID and flu as well!
No but the Hunger Games really said "what do you hate more- the atrocities or the people who commit them against you? Because like it or not there IS a difference. If you hate the people who commit acts of pure evil more than you hate the acts themselves, what will stop you from becoming just like your enemies in your pursuit of justice? What will keep you from commiting those very same acts against THEM when the opportunity arises? And what then? The cycle of pain and suffering will never stop. Round and round it'll go. Nothing will ever change. But. BUT. If you hate the atrocities. If you hate the vile, senseless acts MORE than you hate the people who did them to you. If you are able to see that evil is evil regardless of who does it... The cycle ends with you. No, you may never get justice. But you will never be responsible for making others, even your enemies, suffer the same crimes you have. The atrocities will never be committed by you, never by your hand. And that's the way you change the world. It's the ONLY way" and that's why I am sure it will never stop being one of the most relevant works of fiction ever created
Don't hide this in the notes, this is GOLD.
Honey they’re inventing unions at DoorDash
#but are those unions leveraged against the consumer's expense? Or the corporation's?
The consumer can pay extra for a private taxi for their burrito or they can get the damn burrito themselves.
You are going to have to accept higher costs for things if you want workers paid well.
You know, the irony here also is that most resturants demanded a minimum order before they'd allow delivery OR they'd charge extra under a certain value of product.
So this is just recreating the prior system. And besides, if you're that unhappy about minimums, you can always go out and get it for yourself.
This month was a mouse girl!
morally obligated to reblog mouse girls
actually as long as we keeps viewing humans as resources we will never be able to achieve a complete emancipation of women. CAPITALISM RESTS ON THE PILLAR OF MISOGYNY.
"Every bad thing is every other bad thing!"
yeah. that. actions, thoughts, beliefs are all interconnected. social evils don’t agree in isolation. unencumbered individual thoughts and free will does not and can not exist.
glad you understand. thanks for putting this simply <3
free will does not and can not exist.
Then why are you calling for action? If free will doesn't exist, nobody has any choice in what they do anyway, so your call is worthless.
what was my call to action again? i don’t think i made any(?)
also like… are you at a fifth grade reading level or something?
Oh, I'm sorry, I misread your impassioned statement as a call to fix a problem instead of a lamentation that it exists and nobody can do anything about it. Please forgive me for giving you too much credit.
Gotta love the 'Free Will Cannot Exist' because that right there tells you that they don't actually want me to be free, they want me to be enslaved to their politics.
Women throughout (American and English) history worked. The idea that in the past the sole responsibility of women was domestic labor and childrearing is largely inaccurate for the majority of women in these societies. Women were expected to do domestic labor like cooking and cleaning and raising children AND work to bring income to their family, this was true for the average woman, excluding the upper middle class/wealthy. If a woman’s husband owned a tavern or restaurant, she also cooked and kept bar and did the duties associated with the business. If a woman’s husband was a (small scale/subsistence/tenant) farmer, the woman did farm labor. Often a woman was expected to do labor related to her husband’s job.
Women also had vocations and forms of income unrelated to their husband. The nature of these jobs changed over time but many women did things like weaving, embroidery, crafting, beer brewing, chicken tending and laundress work to bring income. Women with skills were seen as better marriage candidates because they’d make money for their husband.
My great-great-great-great grandmother told fortunes and did farm labor, my great-great-great grandmother was a midwife, my great-great grandmother worked in a textile factory for most of her adult life and my great grandmother was a school lunch lady.
This is why it makes me irate when women on the right say things like “feminism forced me to get a job instead of being allowed to stay home with my children” before feminism you would have had to tend house, raise your children and bring income to your husband. Now, at the very least, the money is hopefully your own. Women were always in the workforce, their work was not recognized.
I'd love to share this without comment but honest to fuck this kinda seems to feel like it's ignoring the not right-wing position of 'women were denied the ability to work forever by the evil patriarchy' because the issue here is far more than just which side does this shit, it's that BOTH sides do this shit.
Do these TikTok stans even pretend to care about how China spies on its own citizens when they're out of the country?
Maybe, just maybe, the CCP is actually worse than Zuckerberg.
Even if they’re not worse then Zuckerberg, Zuckerberg also deserves heavy restrictions for all the data stealing!
I feel like "all social media sites should be subjected to moderation, restrictions, and oversight" and "TikTok is a unique situation because it involves actual national security against an authoritarian state" are statements that can co-exist. Being anti-TikTok doesn't mean you're pro-Meta. And Elon and Zuck aren't being paid by the government to censor LGBT material (yet), they do that all on their own; unlike China, where it's an official government policy.
In short, a pox on all their houses, but ban TikTok.
The thing is that these companies want you to use their proprietary algorithms to mindlessly figure out what kind of art or media to consume, but it’s important for your brain that you don’t let yourself fall into that trap. The algorithms are bad at what they pretend to do. They think you’re stupid. And more importantly, they’re designed to MAKE you stupid.
It's funny to see this posted by a Youtuber whose content I found via the Youtube recommendation algorithm.
"I think they have a negative effect" becomes "they were intentionally designed with that negative effect as their primary purpose" so quickly they don't even notice it's a step
These companies can't make an AI that does anything right and can be spoofed by bored teens, what makes anyone think that they can make algorithms that actually function properly in the first place, let alone make you stupid?
dr who’s on first, doctor strange is on second and doctor house is on third. theres no way theyre getting through a single inning
so who’s on first?
That’s right 👍🏻
that’s strange
No, he’s on second.
Well how’s he on second if he’s on first?
No no no, House is on third. Second base is Strange.
Well this whole darn thing is strange but what I’m asking is who’s on first?
Naturally.
Who?
Naturally.
So Naturally is the first baseman?
No. The first baseman is Who.
Well I don’t know that so how’s about you tell me?
House is on Third.
I’m not asking you about third base I’m asking you about first base.
Who’s on first!
This is horrible
Dr Horrible is the pitcher, not first base
That’s not what I’m asking about! No!
Dr No is in the outfield, but let’s not worry about them right now.
Uh guys
It’s 946 grams. Not pounds. Grams.
946 grams is like 2 pounds.
