if we could read minds I still don’t think we’d understand them.
like I’ve spoken to people who think in images, who have to translate each thought into words before they communicate. and I think entirely in words, laid out across the void inside my head. my father’s thinking is 3d, concepts structured in ways that are incredibly difficult to translate into words. and how would that look to me, if I could see into it? how do I perceive a thought that my mind cannot contain by the nature of their construction?
we all speak a private language to ourselves and we are always translating so we can speak to each other…don’t touch me I’m emotional
if sam had a gun frodo would have failed bc gollum wouldnt have been there to take the ring at the end
Legolas had the best aim of anyone, dunno why anyone else is on this list
exactly. legolas with a gun would change Nothing™. pippin with a gun, however, would have shot denethor by accident and averted the shitshow at osgiliath
gandalf -> gundalf
No, hold up. Fuck my dumb thing, actually. I wanna hear about this thing.
Mine recently force-updated to this (even with auto update turned off), and I can’t begin to describe how bad this interface update is. On an app that most people are using passively in the first place, it makes no sense why they felt a need to design the homepage around algortihmically generating recommendations when the apps goal should be to get you to your playlists as fast possible.
On top of that, it doesn’t let you “scroll” it let’s you swipe from box to box manually. So if your discover weekly, or daily mix 2 is buried? Have fun painstakingly swiping through everything you were never gonna listen to, and the same 3 albums you’ve already heard a billion times, just to get to the playlist that used to be at the top, and ready to go.
It’s not just a hideous update. It’s counterintuitive to what spotify should actually be doing best, and that’s play music in the background. I’ve never heard anyone say “gee I wish there was more stuff to do on the spotify homepage.” There’s no reason for the homepage to be anything remotely like TikTok.
I feel like the legal institution of adoption is unreasonably limited by restricting it to parent-child relationships. If me and some random asshole want to legally be second cousins, I think we should just be able to do that.
This concept is hilarious. Yes we’re now cousins but there’s no aunts/uncles/parents connecting us. Cut out the middle man completely. We’re just family but not directly related ya know?
You understand me precisely.
For everybody saying “well ACTUALLY you can just decide to call whoever you want your uncle/cousin/whatever”, this isn’t about kinship – it’s about bureaucracy. I want to cause problems on purpose.
Co-signed. I want to add to my collection of legally recognized next of kin.
Wolfenstein, for those who don’t know, is a videogame series with soon to be eleven entries in the series, all of them entirely centred around killing Nazis ever since the very first game in 1981.
‘way to make it political’ buddy do you know what series this is
hey remember the old days when “Nazis were bad” was a politically neutral statement. That isn’t sarcastic i’m genuinely nostalgic
