Oh my god, especially on things that don’t need to be touch screen.
The amount of times I’ve had to spend longer frigging about with an EFTPOS machine or a keypad or something because touchscreens don’t have little ridges between the keys, so I can’t align my hands properly and miss the right button. God forbid you’re just straight-up blind.
You might think that I'm joking when I say that we need cyborg rights to be codified into law, but I honestly think that, given the pace of development of medical implants and the rights issues raised by having proprietary technologies becoming part of a human body, I think that this is absolutely essential for bodily autonomy, disability rights, and human rights more generally. This has already become an issue, and it will only become a larger issue moving forwards.
No but seriously we need cyborg rights, in case you don't know how many people count as cyborgs here are some examples;
There are even edge cases revolving around how much electricity and integration into the body are necessary to make someone a cyborg.
The list could go on but I think I made my point that cyborgs are a lot more than just people with robot arms, they are the disabled deserving of the rights to the technology their lives literally depend on.
What’s next? A company who lab-grows replacement organs deciding actually, you need to give us back that heart?
Companies that go under should just tell people “unfortunately, we are unable to provide any additional support and by choosing to keep the implant, you release us from any liability.” That would work just fine. You shouldn’t be allowed to FORCE people to undergo traumatic surgery (in the above case literally brain surgery!) to get it removed despite the fact that it’s working just fine.
I have had it with this likescolding. “Tumblr doesn’t have an algorithm so likes don’t actually do anything” motherfucker I am not clicking that heart to give some post better ~algorithmic visibility~ I am clicking that heart to help my internet friend microdose on serotonin as god fucking intended
I’m clicking that heart so the next time I see a friend who doesn’t use tumblr I can open my likes and go “look at this post”
World renowned English poet, playwright, and actor William Shakespeare found dead buried beneath the earth at the age of 459. We reached out to authorities to get their say on the matter.
"Yeah no s**t you dumb motherf***er. The dude has been dead for centuries. That c**t is nothin but bones now. Wait a sec, you idiots didn't dig up his grave, did you?"
We'll keep you updated as this story develops.

In Tears of the Kingdom, there’s a whirlpool in Lake Hylia.
Below that whirlpool, there’s a shrine.
The shrine is called Eno-ma Shrine.
I cannot believe whoever names them got away with that one.

My hatred of TikTok is perfectly justified, but I can’t realistically say it’s any worse than most other social medias.

"I don't like the Jack Harkness test because it means it's okay to fuck Scooby Doo"
yes that's the entire damn point of the Harkness test. The Harkness Test doesn't exist to say you have to fuck Scooby Doo. The Harkness Test exists to say that it is morally/ethically fine for someone to want to fuck Scooby Doo, because Scooby Doo can give informed consent and communicate as such.
the reason you don't like it is because none of you are self-aware enough to realize how incredibly fucking puritan all of you are when it comes to fucking
Tumblr being free is humanity's greatest error.
Then pay me 20$ if you feel so strongly about it
I explained how keyboard smashing in English expresses laughing really hard and she taught me the Japanese equivalent in return!!
As some of you might know, in Japanese, “w” from the word “to laugh” 笑う 「わらう」 is basically like “lol” in Japanese so when there’s a bunch of “w”’s together it looks like this wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
and it looks like a bunch of grass so one slang word to show something is funny is 草 「くさ」 which is the word/kanji for grass so you don’t have to type out a bunch of w’s.
So the step up from 草 is 大草原 「だいそうげん」 which means prairie since there’s a lot more grass.
And if something leaves you laughing so much that you can’t hold it back you could say 大草原不可避 「だいそうげんふかひ」 which basically means “inevitable prairie”.
The “inevitable part”, 不可避 「ふかひ」 in this phrase means laughter is inevitable and you can’t help but laugh.
“did you check the weather” girl its literally march. you cannot predict the weather in any way that matters.
