best animal names: unnecessarily judgemental edition

Gideon the Ninth, first flower of my House.

Lego Gideon the Ninth. the overwhelmingly emotional bone dome scene at the end would be just gut wrenching. and then Lego Gideon lands on a lego fence spike and breaks into bricks. with the lil noise and all.

As someone who is a notorious hater of adaptations, this is the only time I’ve ever smiled at a TLT adaptation idea. Bravo OP

How never having seen a single Dan and Phil video feels right now

ive said it before and i'll say it again but carrying a weapon does not make you safer, it gives the person assaulting you a free weapon. i know we live in a time where fear is profitable and the cute pink stun guns make feminism sexy but they do not work like you think they do.

there is an extremely slim chance you will be able to deploy the pepper spray/taser/gun in a way that does not harm you at all. pepper spray blows back, guns miss, tasers slip. there is a much much larger chance things go poorly and you end up getting hurt worse than originally intended because now your assailant is pissed and more heavily armed.

im not talking out my ass here, i'm a case manager at a homeless shelter for addicts. we have a lot of violent behavior. none of our staff carry any sort of weapons. we are trained to de-escalate or remove ourselves from the situation. i have worked there over two years without being harmed despite intervening in many fights and having weapons pulled on me.

there is safety in numbers. there is safety in well lit streets and staying on your phone and knowing when to scream and run. there is no safety in "personal defense items".

weapons do not make you safe

guns do not make you safe

more people carrying weapons makes more violence

it's an illusion. it's a mental game. a weapon is a safety blanket that will sooner kill you than stop someone else from doing so.

we are also not in PVP grand theft auto. as scary as things seem, humans are not out there re-enacting the purge 24/7. there are lots of people who benefit from you being afraid of everyone you pass on the street. a lot of those people will try to sell you things to keep you safe. don't fall for it.

AUGUST IS OVER??????

my bad gang there's one more

the locked tomb series, as well as certain erotic fanfiction thereof, is ultimately concerned with the question "which and how many people are currently inside harrowhark nonagesimus?"

It really depends on what you mean by "people" and also what you mean by "inside"... and also what you mean by "Harrowhark Nonagesimus".

This is actually one of the most insane things to me

being anti ai is making me feel like in going insane. "you asked for thoughts about your characters backstory and i put it into chat gpt for ideas". studies have proven its making people dumber. "i asked ai to generate this meal plan". its causing water shortages where its data centers are built. "ill generate some pictures for the dnd campaign". its spreading misinformation. "meta, generate an image of this guy doing something stupid". its trained off stolen images, writing, video, audio. "i was talking with my snapchat ai-" theres no way to verify what its doing with the information it collects. "youtube is impletmenting ai based age verification". my work has an entire graphics media department and has still put ai generated motivational posters up everywhere. ai playlists. ai facial verification. google ai microsoft ai meta ai snapchat ai. everyone treats it as a novelty. every treats it as a mandatory part of life. am i the only one who sees it? am i paranoid? am i going insane? jesus fucking christ. if i have to hear one more "well at least-" "but it does-" "but you can-" im about to lose it. i shouldnt have to jump through hoops to avoid the evil machine. have you no principles? no goddamn spine? am i the weird one here?
