okay but “the symbolism is Real and Trying to Kill You” is my favorite kind of symbolism

like yeah the monster is a representation of your unresolved trauma and guilt and a manifestation of the sins of your past but it’s also a real creature and it’s going to fucking Get you

Shout out to all your internet friends who are gone.

Those messenger screen names that haven’t logged on in ages, some before detailed profiles were a thing on those services.

Those emails that are long since abandoned, some with domains that no longer exist.

Those online friends you knew years ago and who then helped shaped you in some way, who you just can’t FIND anymore.

Those people who once were, and hopefully still exist IRL, that seem to have no known internet life anymore.

And those who have actually passed on, and their online lives are now a memorial to them.

I miss you all. I hope life is/was kind to you, and maybe one day, we’ll somehow connect again.

It should be illegal to have a bus stop without a bench I am 1000% serious rn

They do it to prevent homeless people from sleeping there.

I mean … you could just put effort towards making the shelters safer and more convenient for said homeless people annnddd have a bench.

They don’t want to spend money on anything that isn’t fattening their own paychecks.

Captions shouldn’t be censored. If the video says fuck or cum or cunt the captions should say the fucking word.

Unless it’s a slur! No one needs to see that.

If they say a slur in the video, the captions should reflect it. The disabled are not little babies who have to have life sanitized for them.

okay but I feel like ur forgetting that slurs don’t just apply to the disabled… children don’t need to be seeing the n-word or other racial slurs??

but children DO need to be hearing it? are you actually reading the post here?

Here’s how it works when subtitles are done properly:

Audio: Let’s BEEP go!
Subtitle: Let’s (censor tone) go!

Audio: Let’s fucking go!
Subtitle: Let’s fucking go!

Removing swears and slurs from the subtitles without removing it from the audio is implying that deaf/HoH people need babying, unlike their hearing friends and family sitting right next to them. Which is frustrating.

The point of subtitles is to give the same experience to everyone watching, regardless of ability—not to be a more palatable version of what’s being said.

The purpose of subtitles/captions is to be accurate, that’s all.

TIL “Yankee Doodle” was written by the British to mock americans. “Doodle” is thought to come from the German “dödel”, meaning “fool” or “simpleton” and “macaroni,” a flamboyantly stylish type of dress, painting the Yankees as morons who thought placing a feather in one’s cap made them a “dandy.”

via reddit.com

so you’re telling me that “stuck a feather in his hat and called it macaroni” would be like saying “wrote a G on his belt and called it gucci”

that’s…a pretty good analogy actually

US moron came to town

Hunting for some coochie

Wrote a G up on his belt

And this bitch called it Gucci

Seeing my notifications get flooded with this every July 4th is the only thing I respect about America
