Prison guards: Iroh? Escape? Ha! That weak, senile old man couldn’t escape if we rolled a red carpet to the door!

I saw the video and thought "that guy looks like Jack Black", then I scrolled down to read that. Yup, sure was Jack Black. Also yes, the above is actually true, his mother Judith Love Cohen did indeed help create the abort-guidance system that rescued the Apollo 13 astronauts.

The tumblr experience is having politics that make the most left leaning progressive you know irl blush and then logging on here and getting called a bootlicker fascist because you said that you dont think we should make the reign of terror happen again

Me irl: the problem isnt taxes, youre thinking too small. The problem is that the federal government isnt taxing the right people the right amount. Theyre taking all our extra cash in our measly little wealth bracket and letting the billionaires hang on to more money than they can ever spend in a lifetime. The only way anybody gets a single billion is either through exploitation or inheriting it from someone else who did the exploitation, nobody who has that kind of money earned it legitimately. Not only do we need to strip that back into social safety nets for those of us theyre bleeding dry instead, but they need to establish hard laws and regulations to prevent that kind of exploitation from happening in the first place!

My coworkers: man, youre a real red-card commie, aren't you? You gonna start telling us to vote NDP and that healtcare isnt a scam too? Jesus christ go give someone else your goddamn revolution pamphlets, lenin.

Me on tumblr: while i appreciate the animosity towards billionaires, i dont think literally dragging a guillotine into the streets and beheading people as a public spectacle is going to actually solve the problems inherent in the system considering the french already tried that and it didnt work out well for them. Also i dont think anybody has the right to decide who lives and who dies, im pretty anti death penalt-

Tumblr users: how does that boot taste, fascist?

And while we're talking about ai theft: turn. off. grammarly. Disable it. Delete it. Get that shit off of your computer ASAP.

I never realized how much of my shit is scanned by grammarly until today. It scans my emails, my text posts on this bewitched platform, my wips on google docs, my youtube comments--literally everything ive ever typed on my laptop is scanned by grammarly. And I've been allowing this to happen for years.

Turn. Off. Grammarly.

"ohh what if my kid starts identifying as a CAT because of the trans agenda we have to prote—" well they've always done that. do you remember the psychological effects of h2o on young girls. of warrior cats on autistic children. i believed i was a demigod because of percy jackson. twilight came out and kids were telling their friends they were secretly vampires. this is just a thing kids do. worry less

/r/falloutlore is probably the worst subreddit because every discussion there is like, the opposite of worldbuilding. It’s worldunbuilding. There was a post that was like “how do wastelanders know how old they are?” and all the responses were something along the lines of “well The Lore never explicitly states that people use calendars, so most rural [read: uneducated] wastelanders probably have no idea what year it is or how old they are. The ones who have computers know everything perfectly because computers have internal clocks :)”. 

Like, ignoring how insanely and disgustingly classist that is, it doesn’t even make sense? A lot of wastelanders are farmers, who have to know what season it is in order to know when to sow, when to plant, and when to harvest. Most early civilizations would develop some sort of calendar shortly after agriculture as the necessary next step. 

And then, from there, you could speculate about post-war harvest celebrations. How do wastelanders celebrate the end of the harvest season? What sort of rudimentary holidays do they celebrate? We know that Diamond City celebrates Christmas and Halloween, what other old-world holidays are celebrated? There’s so much speculative worldbuilding you could do but they insist on stopping at “akshually The Lore doesn’t say that they have calendars so I don’t think they do :)”

I saw a post on /r/falloutlore this morning wherein a guy “proved” that Necropolis  was actually built upon the ruins of Las Vegas. OP’s proof consisted of looking at the map for Fallout 1, seeing that the icon for Necropolis was closeish to Vegas, and coming to the conclusion that Necropolis was the post-war location of Las Vegas.

This is a rookie mistake, because if you play Fallout: New Vegas (2010) by Obsidian Entertainment, you will see that the city of Las Vegas has become New Vegas, as a subtle nod to the title of the game. 

/r/falloutlore be like: Using the average adult’s running and walking speed, the head bobs of the courier to determine number of steps, the average adult’s gait, and my own data gathered from walking around the Mojave wasteland, I have determined that the desolation of the Great War has actually shrunk the planet by several orders of magnitude.
