I usually try to be tolerant of anachronisms in books, particularly ye olde medieval generic swords and sorcery type books, but I think I broke the sound barrier with how quickly I just shot out of my immersion in this book when ye olde ancient archivist in the ye olde fantasy-england castle's library tells the protag where to find a certain book by giving him its dewey decimal number.

Today in an arthurian retelling set in pre-saxon britain I encountered a character who said he was going to quit drinking "cold turkey," which I think puts him roughly a thousand years prior to European awareness of the existence of turkeys, and the dissonance had barely registered in my mind before I remembered the medieval lending library run on the dewey decimal system and decided a chronologically misplaced poultry idiom wasn't worth noticing in comparison.

Have you guys noticed how much the internet/technology just does not listen to you anymore? I click “don’t show this artist” on Spotify and I get recommended a music video by them on the front page. I click “skip this update” on a pop up every time I open a file organization app and it’s right back there every time. I click unsubscribe on a newsletter and it keeps showing up in my inbox!! I click “delete my account” and the next time I open the website they suggest I “reactivate”.

Too much movement makes your joints hurt and too little movement also makes your joints hurt. This would imply that there's an optimal amount of movement that allows your joints to not hurt. This is a lie.

im certain the majority of people are either anti-ai or largely indifferent because i don't think tech companies would be shoving it in our faces so much if so many people were using it.

parks closing at night for no reason other than to stop homeless people from having a covered place to sleep is high key insidious as fuck. what do you mean it's closed?? it's the outdoors

my favorite genre of photos of The Beatles are the ones where George Harrison is the polar opposite of what he's clearly supposed to be doing (this usually being The Beatles smiling/being silly while George scowls/stares into the camera as though he's judging all of your sins)

the problem with having cool professors who are very obviously One Of Us is that sometimes you'll be hanging out with a friend with the same professor, and said friend will reveal that in an email exchange with said professor (originally relating to an assignment), they've learned that your professor was one of the og's of the homestuck fandom
