Writer: You want the good or bad news first?

Character: ... good.

Writer: Good news is, you're my favourite character.

Character: Oh, nice. Phew... so what's the bad news?

Writer: Bad news is, you're my favourite character.

i feel like we need to start pushing back with "gen z would probably want to work as much as their parents if they were being compensated just as well as their parents were and had the same buying power" just to shift the narrative to "greedy employers aren't paying the same"

Oh, you're scared NOW? NOW things are a problem? Could it be because you were comfortably sure none of that other shit happening would affect you? But now that you've convinced yourself you'll be implicated for sassy tweets, NOW it's time to be afraid?

Young dudes who make pointless apps that scam stupid people out of money are not "cracked" or "skilled" or "talented" or geniuses. You aren't getting into elite colleges because you're a fucking self-important asshat no one wants to be stuck in a room with. Grind a personality, fuck.

I realized why I bounced off that RPGMaker game about dating your overly attached nurse practitioner so hard: it's not for me, it's for the yumejin. It's Twilight for people who think they're too cool for Twilight. It's a y/n fic. You're supposed to self-insert.

There is so much power in knowing the ways in which you're annoying to other people.

gf has been sending me excerpts of one of the most maddeningly constructed stories I've ever seen. It reads like the homepage of a consulting company, with a bunch of superficial platitudes and a terminal aversion to specifics. Every banal moment is repeated 3x+. All conflict is solved off-screen.

I'm not saying this doesn't apply to me too, but modern Americans need to come to terms with our own cowardice. You're not resisting because you're afraid. And that's understandable, but you can't then get offended when the rest of the world points it out.

"What do you mean, petulant people?"
They mean people who were objecting to someone calling out racism because the way they phrased it could have possibly been construed poorly.

This isn't hard, and none of you were engaging in good faith. I don't care how polite you think you were being.

I need Reddit to stop trying to push Japan subreddits at me. I'm here for funny wikihow captions, not get second-hand embarrassment.

I guess the healthcare CEO should have listened to those three ghosts, huh?

They should invent a holiday season that doesn't happen when you're at your most exhausted.

I'm looking at these scorchingly stupid takes from rw weirdos and it's so obvious that they really, truly believe in American Exceptionalism. It's such a foreign concept to me to sincerely think your country is that important in the grander scale of the planet.

I was wondering why the hell the Wizard of Oz DS JRPG was blowing up all of a sudden and then I realized that people are just really holding space for Oz content right now.

me: I just think that a lot of people buy into that "America is the best country in the world" propaganda.

my mother, who has spent the last 45 mins of the conversation complaining about the US: Name another country that's as good.

me, who happily lives in a different country: Well...

Slitterhead is perfect in its imperfection. It's the exact type of janky-ass passion project I love to bits.

Need to work on my worksona this weekend.

I should look up people to follow, but it's just been a series of weeks, man.

I really do need a nap, bad.
