Jazz is terrible at eating. He has little interest in it. Always explores the whole house before returning to his bowl. Sometimes doesnt even come back! But sitting with him is frequently all the motivation he needs.

You think I dont know you? Nah, I got your number.

I KNOW you've used the other slice of bread to wipe the peanut butter or jelly off of the knife before you get the other ingredient.

You and I are the same. We are savages.

Having spent YEARS of my life singing the praises of the drumstick. I think tonight I realize that the flank is the superior chicken wing.

It is time to let go of childish things, and become a man.

I might br crazy, but I think Twitch is responsible for why everyone says "Welcome In" instead of welcome at restaurants now.

"Welcome to". Let's brinc back "Welcome to"

When i think about the aftermath of the covid pandemic's global quarantine, in these times where covid in now endemic and we just live with it, I think, "Wow, culture is such an enduring thing."

Cuz we literally changed nothing; only become more entrenched in what is emblematic about our culture

If they describe your race as attractive/sexy, they mean you are ill-suited for marriage and love.

If they describe your race as maternal & womanly, they mean you are ill-suited for work, wages, & ownership.

Every positive racism reduces the person to their instrumentality relative to the racist

Positive Racism is still bad racism, because it is always accompanied by a harmful stereotype.

If they say a race is good at sport, then they also mean you are ill-suited to intellectual pursuit.

If they call something a noble savage, they also mean you are uncivilized & ill-suited for governance

Christopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola.

Fuck Columbus.

Glad to hear that my email both brought the Email Song and helped spread the good news of the Scarlet Nexus / Code Vein / God Eater / Freedom Wars and now Digimon devs.

I think something YT audiences who dont have the creator perspectice probably dont realize is that YT actively disinsentivizes subcribing to a YT channel.

Yet, socially speaking, that sub count matters so much to future opportunities and convincing others to subscribe.

Bye Sweet Carole is doing a thing I have always found a little odd in homage pieces.

Just like how lots of Pinocchio adaptations make a character of Geppetto's deceased son and name him Carlo after Carlo Collodi,

BSC is clearly Alice inspired, and named the friend Carole after Lewis Carroll

A weird hypocrisy of the internet. If you create and post things online, you are expected to never "spoil" any media without explicit & frequent warnings

However, the audience typically also expects you to be fully aware of every detail of said media, and will immediately start spoiling it for you

representation necessary to make sure the brand never uses their videos in any capacity?
Or to sue for compensation in the case of theft?

It completely removes artists' ability to demand payment for their labor. By making the labor free up front for the Brand. Not the audience but the advertisers
