Like, I would fully accept "I asked a friend of mine who is an electrician/knows electric systems, and they told me" because they actually have lived experience. This is just "I asked someone to google for me and summarize rq"

Exactly. I always urge people to flip the genders before they make a statement about men, and think about how they REALLY sound. I often hear ppl say it's awful you have to remind men "your mom is a woman", but we have to do the same to women often.

Seriously... no difference between her and any other person who tried to convince people that a group of individuals with a particular trait are to blame for their problems. Godawful.

I still cringe every time I see artists, even queer ones, celebrating or making fanart for her cuz like... To this day I have not seen her come out openly in support of the queer/trans community and it gives me a lot of pause.

I didn't even have any trans characters at the time so it was weird and unprompted, aside from the fact that *I* was trans. I did find out this artist is still very religious, so I avoid the hell out of them still. I honestly wish I still had my old DA accnt and the messages, bc it grossed me out.

I still think alot about the time I asked an artist I admire if I could make an OC of one of her cool, shapeshifty alien species. She said yes! BUT!!! They can't be trans OR gay because in THEIR world everything is actually 'perfect'.

I don't know WHO could do a good job of it mind, MAYBE Nigel Ng???? At least I'd like to see someone Southeast Asian, (like Chieng obvi being Malaysian), but yeah. I love Khan he's actually one of my favourite characters on KOTH.

06.03.2026 17:33 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I hope they recast Khan again in the next season of KOTH. Like, I get why they want to push to have actors the actual race of the characters but I really don't feel Ronnie Chieng pulled it off. Toby Huss' original is just TOO perfect.

I keep saying this is the solution. Rabid dogs get put down.

A SINGLE use of an LLM is enough for me to say "you are garbage at your job and a waste of oxygen". Do it yourself. With your own hands.

Then bluesky should adress it and get rid of the dude since he's causing issues

They also forget the users can choose to ruin and make their site completely un profitable simply by being degens. See: tumblr

So like, is Why Elon's side account or something because I have not seen someone so immediately and without any question destroy ANY goodwill he could have had with a community since that fool.

Why is he here? Why does he have a job? Why does he think his opinion matters?

I imagine that there's a lot that are very intergrated with that HUUUUUUGE mushroom. Like if it died off, i bet most of the plant life there would sufffer! There's a cool plant dude I like who shares super fascinating stuff... www.youtube.com/@CrimePaysBu... He is super fun to listen to too xD

Mushrooms are insane. Absolutely unwilling to not exist. I've seen them pop up in tarantula enclosures!

I'd guess that they were grouping them into South asian, even if its dumb ><

I think it's weird to have to declare race period but the East Asia / SEA seperation is p common iirc?

This is why I am skeptical about medical dogs to begin with- is there a group that checks in on them and makes sure they are properly cared for etc :( With no oversight.... you just never know.

I hate to say it but it's not just 'pet' dogs. I've seen some extremely self absorbed service dog owners "i cant pick it up, duh, im disabled" like... okay find a way bc biohazards are inexcusable. people in general suck

XD they really do. Or they're like. a young tumblrina who doesn't realize that making a slight joke or a reference or even disagreeing with a personal opinion doesn't make a person bad, unless their opinion is of course "x group bad hsould die" or smth. I was there, once.
