It's really fucked up when you treat characters like people and people like characters.

No seriously it's REALLY fucked up when you treat characters as if they were real live people while you treat people like they're just characters.

I'm gonna go ahead and repeat: it is super, duper, extra scooper fucked up when you treat a character as if it were a living person while treating other human beings who are interacting with you like they are merely characters who can be written out of your personal story if you just find a remark mean enough.

You. You get it.

Its fascinating that the way advertizing and apps work right now is simply how computer viruses, adware, spyware, and all manners of malware has ALWAYS worked. Growing up as a teen in the 2000s there used to be a program called Weatherbug that was pretty much considered unthinkable to ever have installed because of the way it knew your location and essentially EVERY adware, spyware, and antivirus software flagged it for removal immediately. It was considered best practice to never install anything. Never install toolbars, mever install anything without consulting a professional or unless you were ad advanced user. I was trained in Comptia A+ for the windows xp era and the best practice as a repair tech was to never allow the customer to install anything themselves if it could be helped.

And now just. Everything does this. Your fucking calculator wants your location data and business ghouls want it to ve illegal to use a simple adblocker because not advertizing to you hurts their feelings.

And now we have generative AI filling the internet witg slop that can have SEO and more ads slapped on top of it? Google is breaking on purpose so you make more searches?

The viruses have won, everything is malware and everything is a scam. To use commercial tech is to be voluntarily mugged

@stickthisbig wish granted!

Hands dragging Rolan down symbolize his fears and the threats he faces every day. He risks to succumb to this stance and let it swallow him. And he probably would have given up if not for his siblings who believe in him, who rely on him and who help him survive all the challenges

It’s my entry for Rolan competition on twt:

they have so many similarities in their hero costumes! head pieces, neck/shoulder pieces, heavy wrist gauntlets, big belts, big shoes with thick knee protection and two black dots 🧡🩷

had to be done 🤷

I recently had a dream about them

"inflation" is so bad that there are midwestern white families who can't even afford the customary fridge in the garage filled with exclusively busch light, out of date sprite and ginger ale and a single store brand water bottle.
