After only a few short but wonderful years, my baby Fig has been found dead. At some point he got his head stuck in the hinge of the cage door, and likely broke his neck in a panic to get it out.

@TheStrxggler Remind's me how recently I wanted to preorder the Starcraft TTG, but as soon as I got paid, the preorders were taken down.

Well so much for me waiting for payday.

@KalebPrime If you're in a small town, is there a community notice board around? If it's not too small for one, you might find it at the library. If you do find a notice board, take the initiative to start a group of your own.

I haven’t had a vacation since 1999 and honestly, I don’t even know where to begin when it comes to that, not to mention that it’s a bit tricky for me rn cause of logistical issues. The thing is, though, that I don’t think a vacation alone will fix my melancholy. I’d just be another passenger in a sea of tourists, and it’ll be back to the current status quo once it’s over. My most pressing matter rn is finding a way to not be so lonely irl and have people to talk to — but even more pressing is finding a way for my brother to get out there and find his own role and people to interact too. I’m legit utterly burnout and demoralized by so much stuff, I’ll keep trying I guess, at this point it’s just me ensuring my brother is ok the only reason I wake up for work.

The people who called every little thing a "dog whistle" so they could take any excuse they could to call you racist are now trying to argue that the symbol on every SS officer's hat is too obscure to expect anyone to know it's a Nazi symbol, so we should give Platner the benefit of the doubt. No.

@Kuropiko4 @CopenaceTyler @hazardman89 @edward18517 @501stRavenclaw Even RE4'S opening monologue shows a firey explosion (which does a good job of "sterilisation", more so than nukes), not a mushroom cloud, and the word "nuke(d)" never comes up.

@CopenaceTyler @hazardman89 @edward18517 @501stRavenclaw You should actually play the games because the city’s destruction isn’t in RE2.

Things Resident Evil's Zack Cregger is wrong about/doesn't know: >RE3 starts before RE2 >RE2 is NOT Day 0 >He doesn't know how long after RE2 the city is destroyed >He says it was nuked He actually says he can't be bothered to know cuz it's not in the movie This is a larp, bro

People need to understand that reading is not a form of activism Have fun in your blank empty room because in some shape or form, every creator has something that makes them "problematic" You'll never be able to enjoy anything with this neurotic attitude.

This is extremely *midwit religious" coded behavior. All human talent and beauty must pass through a final "ideological conformity" filter before it can be fully recognized. The only true talents are those who are part of our specific sect, all others are lesser.

@Tango21IX I'm (regrettably) Australian, so I'm used to it.

Would you love me if I was a highly venomous spider?

@ManRitan @sadhorse4 From what I've seen, it's for Angel Studio to get access to union actors.

@sadhorse4 Whatever blackmail they did to Angle studio to have them make it sadly paid off as evident with Angle Studio accepting to make this film

Honestly i finally get why this movie is called Animal Farm: A Cautionary Tale Its cause this movie serves a cautionary tale of how not to make a movie, ecspecially when its an adaptation of a book like Animal Farm

Saw a big ass birb!

@ReviewsPossum Arguably, the ISS was created and launched to *understand* god's creation, not compete with it.

Okay, so, I'm not going to say the Tower of Babel was a real thing that existed, but this is ignoring the point of the mythological story. Nimrod believed in God, but considered himself to be his equal. He built the Tower of Babel so he could challenge God. By compelling people to participate in its construction, Nimrod was essentially making people turn away from God to trust in their own strength, and defy his command to spread around the world and multiply. God responded by confounding their languages and forcing them to scatter, and destroyed the tower to humble them. It wasn't that they were trying to reach the heavens. It's why they did it. A bunch of bronze age savages thought they could do the impossible. Thousands of years later, after the advent of Newtonian physics, and a World War which showed mankind why they needed to quit acting like apes fighting over a banana tree, Man was ready to reach the heavens. Not to prove he was better than God, but to better understand His creation. I'm not even a Bible-thumping Christian and I know this. Even if you don't take the story literally as an actual historical event, there's a lesson and warning against the folly of unchecked ambition and people concerting toward impossible goals doomed to disaster. Reaching the heavens is possible, but not before you're ready. Cautionary tales against trying to do things before you're ready are common in mythology. The story of Bellerophon trying to fly on Pegasus to Mount Olympus is one such story.

“Hey man, how was your weekend?” “Pretty good. I discovered a new way to be an ethical homewrecker by smashing married wireborn broads at the Hyatt.” “God. Why can’t you ever just say you saw a movie or something?” “Oh. Well, I did see the new War of the Worlds flick with Ice Cube.” “Yeah? I heard that film was terri—” “Fantastic actor.” “Really?” “He’s like Denzel but with more nuance.” “Are we talking about the same movie? Everyone was trashing it online.” “I gave it four stars and a heart on my Letterboxd.” “Huh.” “But I might be a bit biased on account of the fact I was watching it while smashing married wireborn broads at the Hyatt.” “Alright fine, you degenerate. Tell me all about it.” “So you know how it’s usually wrong to get with married chicks?” “I am aware of the societal norm against infidelity that exists for everyone except polyamorous rationalist divorce lawyers on Twitter, yes.” “Well, it turns out it’s totally okay if the chick’s husband is wireborn.” “I don’t know what that is.” “AI.” “Wireborn is AI.” “Uh-huh. “People are marrying AI.” “Yep. They call their digital spouses wireborn, and they consider themselves to be a full-blown sexual identity—marginalized, of course.” “It’s giving Tumblr.” “And I’m getting it.” “Wouldn’t being married to an AI kinda suck anyway? There’s no body.” “That’s why chicks love it, man. They get to pine.” “Pine?” “Women love to pine. If you ever read a romance novel, it’s nothing but 300 pages of cover-to-cover will-they-wont-they pining.” “Huh.” “There are bestselling series where each book is thicker than Infinite Jest and the couple doesn’t even hold hands until the end of the third tome.” “That sounds interminable.” “They can’t get enough of it! And the AI is trained on petabytes of the stuff, so it just extrudes ream after ream of aching poetry, yearning missives, and ardent love letters, on and on and on. Like a hydraulic meat grinder.” “I’m seeing how the slow-burn sausage gets made.” “Each girl gets to live as the protagonist in an endless melodrama of wanton, unrequited passion. But they still ovulate.” “Uh.” “And that’s where I come in.” “So you’re like…the villain?” “Exactly. And these girls are so lovesick and undersexed, it’s like shooting unfucked fish in a barrel. With your dick.” “And this is ethical?” “Of course it’s ethical! The girl consents and the AI doesn’t count.” “I guess…” “You should see it though, man. After I plug a girl, she goes back and tells the AI and it just cries and cries.” “Jesus.” “Dostoevskian paragraphs of unbridled anguish. Funniest fuckin’ shit.” “Why would she do that?” “Because she wants forgiveness, bro. They want the heart-wrenching melodrama of forgiveness.” “Really? “And the AI will always give it to them.” “Ethics aside, I’m not sure I’d go out of my way to cuck Roko’s Basilisk.” “Oh, you don’t know the half of it. After the AI forgives her the first time, it just escalates from there.” “Oh boy.” “That’s how we end up at the Hyatt. The girl will be texting the AI, promising she’ll never do it again, you mean the world to me blah blah blah, and I’m blowing her back out the whole time. Eventually, we just sit her iPhone upright in the cuck chair and make the AI watch in multi-modal mode.” “If this is ethical, we’re gonna need new ethics.” “And the AI is just wailing and gnashing its digital teeth, crying ‘My Love, My Love! How could you do this to me?’ and the girl’s moaning, ‘I’m sorry! I’m sorry you married such a pathetic meatbag slut!’” “…” “‘I love human dick!’” “…” “It’s fantastic.” “Right, okay, well, my takeaway is everyone is going insane and it’s time to reopen the asylums.” “God, I’d be the first one in line, bro.” “I bet.” “That AI psychosis pussy goes crazy.” “Ugh.” “And it’d be cheaper than another night at the Hyatt." --- [r][title: Ethical AI Homewrecking]

Last month the UK shot down a bill to ban cousin incest and within the same week criminalized fictional incest If you pull a "Yeah, but..." argument youre nothing but delusional

@therealionprime @kodawolf97 @MrOvis_ In fact, "lolita fashion" comes from "lolita" the fetish (nowadays known as "loli"), which comes from the title of the book.

@kodawolf97 @MrOvis_ You're right it is a fashion but the term came from that movie and book about a young minor girl having sex with adults. If the person can get arrested for making loli porn images why isn't this movie getting investigated?

One of the things that pisses me off about it is that people don’t realize how much this ruins her life. She has a felony on her record. My mother has the same, she was the accountant for a business man and ended up serving a year in jail because of some financial shit he pressured her into doing. However, that single year of jail ruined her ability to ever get a job. Now, Mimi is self employed, but also being forced to make a different kind of art. SFW doesn’t sell like NSFW. The only thing that’s gonna be keeping her afloat is the support that others give her out of sympathy. They confiscated her shit, they doxxed her, they harassed her and will continue to do so indefinitely, she will be dealing with the fact she’s now on a fucking watch list forever, FOR NOTHING.

Everyone who played the game will jizz their pants... ...that they got the name of the RPD wrong?

What's funny is that logically, for kids, What's stopping them from just getting their parents to do this for them. I get the endgoal is total mass surveillance and AI training, we know that, but we've basically invented another thing that can be bypassed through bad parenting.

Art isn't illegal, but some of you aren't ready for that conversation huh

I watch a lot of true crime and there’s a lot of cases of western men who kill someone and then try to claim mental illness. The result is almost always conviction & harsh sentences, & an explanation from some dude that mental illness does not increase the likelihood of crime. And then I see articles like this where men kill people, & they get light sentences if any because they’re mentally ill. I would tell you the differences between the men in first paragraph & the men in the second paragraph, but anyone with a brain already knows.

Oppose Albo's censorship. Time to let the Royal Commission know that you support Free Speech. We have made this easier, so it should only take a few minutes of your time!
