@5ducks5 Neat trick: divide any American distance unit greater than 66 feet by 66 feet... it comes out evenly.
This is because the survey was done by a standard 66 foot chain.
1 mile is 5280 feet or 80 chains!
One acre is 4840 square yards, or 10 square chains (66x66)

With each new endeavor it’s giving “I like some of the Gaga songs, what the fuck does she know about cameras?”

Nothing against Vivian Wilson or anything, but it’s funny that she’s the one nepo baby that everyone’s cheering for.

@HitoshiKonomiR @eigonodo “I like dogs” = I like the category of dogs. I am an enjoyer of many dogs.
“I like a dog” = There is exactly one specific dog that I like. Not an entire category, just one organism.
“I like dog” = I like the taste of the meat that comes from dogs.

これを理解するほうが、単語を10000個覚えるより大切だと、直感的には感じる。言語のコアにあたる部分。

ちょうど4年前。僕が話している英語を聞いて、アメリカ人の上司がそっと渡してきてくれたメモがこれ。「基本から学び直せ」という意味だと思うんだけど、こんなベーシックなことすらできなかった僕でも、VERSANTで64点は取れたんだから。あなただって、きっとできるはずです。

@NoelleDLilley @_mais_pourquoi_ @turntineforwhat It’s extremely simple. The biggest acting stars are perceived as “safer” financially. Those extremely popular actors are mostly white.
There don’t really exist young acting stars (they’re just starting). So since everyone that age is equally unknown, a POC actor is easy to cast.
English
@_mais_pourquoi_ @turntineforwhat true that in the adaptations, they are often trying to diversify the original (can be well-intentioned), but why this way every time? it ends up feeling like studios want to shortcut representation by still centering the non-Black parent and making the Black parent mostly absent
English
has anyone written about the phantom POC (parent of color) trope? diversity in tv/film (esp reboots/adaptations) being limited to an actor of color cast as the mixed race child of a white character and a dead/absent POC, all to avoid casting a Black/Brown actor in a lead role
English
@cringe_npc @JeremiahDJohns I don’t think these interactions happen the way that you’re describing to the degree that you think they do.
English
@JeremiahDJohns kinda odd that "lesbians" seem to like the trans so much, considering 90% of trans are M2F, and they all try to get with lesbians, and when lesbians reject them, they act like any insecure incel dude would be expected to react.
English
Lot of interesting nuggets here, but it's mildly amusing that trans people are not the group with the most positive views on trans people.

@rbarbosatoro @leemfisto No becuase lev was born female and transitioned to male how does it make any sense to have a natural born man play them it wouldn’t be accurate to the character at all? He’s not a “feminine guy” he was born and grew up in a cult in a zombie apocalypse there isn’t gender roles
English
if you don't want to cast a trans child actor for their own safety that's fine BUT CAST A FUCKING MALE TO PLAY HIM WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS

Kyriana Kratter will portray Lev in Season 3 of ‘The Last of Us’ More details here: deadline.com/2026/03/the-la…

@miss_margey @o_reachtaire Americans couldn’t get enough depressing rock music in the 90s and 00s. That was our shit.
English
@o_reachtaire Hard agree. Zombie is a drab, depressing dirge, and their music generally was poor. I've never got why they were so popular. I found Dolores' voice hard to listen to too.

I should not have to tell adults this but The Cranberries were absolutely shite

@AumPinataParty @NierHellFire True, but I didn’t really care about those parts. When I say “I like Evangelion,” I mean the psychological turmoil. I couldn’t care less about the mechas

@NierHellFire "Unlike other mecha" has gone so far that people forget the structure of the show was fun monster of the week mecha battles basically all the way until the end

@TheOtherFrost There are so many line deliveries in FMAB that are stuck in my head forever.
Ed’s “he’s my little brother he’s all I have left!” Is incredible. Also riza’s breakdown into screaming “you bitch!” at Lust.
All those actors (and the director) were just firing on all cylinders.
English
Not to say one is better. But that youthful dramatic line read has more room for delivery when you end on vowels
Meanwhile consonants, imo, are better for sharp gruff line reads. "Except...It's a terrible day for rain"
English
ooooo this is my nerdshit
He mentioned tone and lip synch for why English sub sounds so cringe. I'll add one more: phonetics
Japanese ends on vowels, creates an open ended flowy sound. Spanish dub does this as well
English ends on consonants.
Jojo ❤️@josiah_awkward
Charlie shares his experience dubbing a character in Baki and this really puts into perspective how tough English dubbing is for voice actors. People will denounce all dubs for being “cringe” but the actors are literally instructed to copy the cadence of the original lmao
English
@CantEverDie I would’ve broken character when Mr Beast started improvising. Give Sean Evans an Oscar.
English
mr beast wasn’t supposed to cough into the napkin here, it was entirely improvised and he stunned the crew filming him with his unscripted performance that they kept it in the video
Jack@Jackkk
MrBeast reveals he doesn’t like expensive food “It’s crazy cause like a $5 smash burger will taste better than a $70,000 golden pizza with like black truffles on it. I do not like expensive foods” “You’re not missing out at all”

@kangcrimson @oncloud_e Can you tuck and still swim? Or do you have to like… be stationary and avoid rigorous activity?
English
@oncloud_e Tucking works pretty well for that especially with like a gaff or tight underwear

i don't really have bottom dysphoria, i just wish it could look perfectly flat in underwear or like a swim suit and that i could go out socially without having to worry about hiding everything all the time or the thought of it exposing me looming over my head or
