They’ve been primed not to. They’ve grown up surrounded by social media where oversharing with your legal name attached is incentived, both by the companies and the lonely, drama-hungry users. I wish we’d pushed harder against this back in the early days of Facebook, but I doubt most of us saw this coming.

Bro’s from the timeline where Flash became the dominant species.

Christ this picture is dark

I mean the real answer to your question is that those posts are all fake because the internet loves stories about revenge on such a small scale they can’t be disproven.

But I want to know what kind of job keeps you by the fridge 24/7 so you can always witness food theft. Most people don’t work in the break room, so they have no way of knowing who to yell at when their food disappears.

That’s technically legal but basically no authority figure will believe you.

I see this opinion a lot. Sincere question, how are countries without armies supposed to defend themselves from imperialism?

I mean I decided enough is enough years ago but what the fuck am I supposed to do? No one will listen to me, the only job that will take me is infamously good at union busting, and I don’t know how to kill myself without traumatizing my niece.

Yeah, OP didn’t specify but this is pretty much entirely about the USA’s disastrous public health officials and our growing right-wing population.

I used to spend the year keeping a list of things people mentioned they wanted, and then go on a shopping spree before Halloween.

Unfortunately my bills keep going up and my niece keeps having kids, so now I only shop for the rugrats and I do it at the last goddamn minute 😭

I grew up in a hoarder house and I’m pretty sure I ruined my life by teaching myself to do the dishes as a kid. I was expected to keep the place clean for the rest of my childhood, and that turned into me being the only one to do chores of any kind. I was actually guilt tripped into skipping college so I’d be available to drive my sister to classes.

So yeah forget all the drugs and murder and shit. The real worst thing a child can do is wash a dish.

I don’t know why you thought that would make me stop associating it with the bible belt.

I don’t remember saying anything like that. I just don’t get why being from the bible belt makes it offensive, since again, queer people in the bible belt use it too, and it doesn’t mean anything offensive. If regionalisms are offensive because of where they’re from, it makes me wonder how people feel about my accent.

My weekend is Thursday/Friday. I spent day one getting drunk and moping in my living room, no idea how to get everything I need done by the end of day two.

In episode 402 of The Muppet Show, the Prairie Dogs steal Kermit’s collar and he laments that he feels naked without it.

Per the wiki. Surely that explains everything.

Kermit’s froghood baffles me, mainly due to the neck frill. I was down a Muppet history rabbit hole recently and realized that he was originally just named “Kermit”, and didn’t become “Kermit the Frog” for some years. So he was probably designed as a frill-necked lizard of some kind and got retconned into a frog. Mystery solved, right? Well no, because then I realized he got the frill the same time they started calling him a frog.

I was so distraught I turned to Muppet Wiki, which it turns out has an entire section on his collar. It’s an article of clothing. 😐

Yup. I don’t understand why people are talking like Harris isn’t also pro-genocide. Obviously more Americans are going to die under Trump and that’s a tragedy too, but why are people pretending the election was about Palestine?

Queer people who live in the bible belt still say “y’all”. It literally means “you all”.

Personal answer: I draw art for a stupidly niche internet community. I’m a less popular artist so I go wear the community already is. I found one other artist on Mastodon and several on Bluesky.

I maintain that what people mistake for porn addiction is just depression or possibly ADHD. Constant masturbation is a series of easy dopamine hits. If you quit cold turkey without making any other changes, you’ll probably just replace it with social media or gacha games.

Then you have the opposite end of the spectrum, people who don’t want you to talk about the legal risks because they think you’re trying to discourage them.

Fight the power, but know what you’re doing. That’s how you minimize risk.

Yooooo thank you for including audiobooks!
