Sonic says: Happy Pride Month!! 🌈

JUNE 1.23

“The average US president has been charged with 1.54 felonies” factoid isn’t true. The average US President has been charged with 0 felonies. Donald trump, who has been charged with 71, is a statistical outlier and should not have been counted

The Barbie Movie meme featuring Teen Jenny and Adult Pt#9.

I can imagine when he landed in Strangetown he got into some trouble and Jenny tried to help but also got into trouble.

“The average US president has been charged with 1.56 felonies” factoid isn’t true. The average US President has been charged with 0 felonies. Donald trump, who has been charged with 72, is a statistical outlier and should not have been counted

The fact that you made this mathematically accurate made my tummy warm

we should globally ban the introduction of more powerful computer hardware for 10-20 years, not as an AI safety thing (though we could frame it as that), but to force programmers to optimize their shit better

I reblogged this like 9 times kinda jokingly, but software should be able to run on older and less powerful hardware, and consume less power on newer hardware. Like, this is a real problem imo

What two Sims should I draw for this?

Rb to give gender euphoria to the person you reblogged it from

So this is the official Joey wheelchair walks the English Channel for the @britishredcross and #MilesForRefugees post!

I, or @sushigal007, will add updates {photos & videos) to this post when the event starts on June 1st 2023.

The link to sponsor is here: https://miles.redcross.org.uk/fundraising/joeypaul & I've been told you can do so from around the world as I've had some US donations!

The video was taken at the second practice WW in May and I'm itching to get started on the actual WW that will count for the 22 miles!

I'm well aware that money is tight for everyone, so even if all you do is reblog, thank you!

For those who don't know, I'm Joey Paul, I'm an indie author, and disabled with several chronic conditions. This is my first time doing a physical event ever. I've been WW at the local park three times a week since the start of the year, and this is very much a cause I believe in

You can also follow my journey on Instagram or Twitter!

Wheelchair Walk #6 brought me to 11.05 miles out of 22! We had to switch to indoor because of the heat, tho I am very aware that the people I’m raising money for wouldn’t have that choice, I needed to because of health reasons.

Managed to hit the £100+ range of money raised, so all in all, going well!

It's utterly sweltering today, so we switched to the local shopping centre so Joey's lungs wouldn't crap out on her. Hopefully we'll be back in the park on Friday, but it really does depend what the weather brings.

Don’t let people make fun of you for liking japanese culture.

I am living in japan right now and let me tell ya:

There are people here who can’t speak or understand English who play nothing but Missy elliot and ludacris, even in businesses like housing offices and restaurants.

There are people who have cowboy hats and dead cow skulls in their home because they idolize what they assume American homes are like.

There are people who learn English strictly through music videos and American television shows.

There are entire karaoke bars with english songs often sung by people who have no idea what the lyrics mean.

Japan often takes American shows like the powerpuff girls and make japanese versions of them.

They often mistake common Americans for celebrities. I have been mistaken for Micheal jordan, tiger woods, Shaquille o'neal, Tyler perry, and saddest of all: queen latifa.

The act of sprinkling English into your japanese sentences is considered cute and cool and is popular with teenagers. Bonus points if you happen to use it correctly.

Japanese stores sell shirts with english on them and people buy them not knowing that most of those word combinations are nonsense.

Don’t let someone shame you for singing an anime opening, using japanese in your sentences, wearing clothing with japanese on it, ect. If anything, this is just one more thing that you have in common with them.

The American/Japanese cultural exchange is so pure and wonderful and I love it so much

OK BUT RESONATE WITH THE SHIRT THING THOUGH

My Chinese relatives buy me shirts from China with English letters on them hoping I think it’s cool

I have a shirt that says “Hi Quality Uality”

It’s amazing

It happens alot.

And then what’s really great is Americans getting tattoos of Chinese characters thinking they mean one thing when they really don’t

Also a topic where the reverse happens.

lemme tell you..i have been in a grocery store in Japan and heard the unedited Get Low playin over the intercom..it was literally a Katt Williams moment

Oh, unsensored songs are pretty common.

I should not be hearing an unsensored ‘Magic Stick’ playing at a family restaurant.

And the best thing is when literally no one shows that they understand what is being said.

I was in a Chinese cafe one time and they had obviously put on their “fuck you” playlist. I mean, uncensored versions of Fuck You by Lilly Allen, Fuck You by Cee-lo Green, etc. No one else had any idea.

Oh, also, I got my favorite shirt ever in a little tchotchky store in Sichuan:

that last one got me holy shit.

                       i wish i had

                never met you

      TOUCH             MY              BUTT

then there would be mo need to imprese you

  o need to want you.No naed for. loring you

    No need tar crying over you.Noneed for

  heartbreaks.No nead for paln oru tears.No

    neard for forgoure promises .nead for

For every american teenager that is screaming the lyrics to their favorite anime opening, there’s likely at least 1 or 2 Japanese teens singing English profanities at a karaoke bar.

I really want that “I’m so fucking future” shirt.

Bro went to Japan and went to a karaoke bar with some high schoolers. They wanted to show me how good their Japanese rap was. Turned on kanye. Fucking sang the word nigga and everything. It was hella based

Brothers of the same soul

God, no.

Also explains why a lot of Japanese songs (mainly anime songs from the songs I’ve heard) have English lyrics and names that rather don’t make any sense. Just listen to “Feed A” from God Eaters.

Oh God, I’m turning into the Sims 2 version of an ‘I want that on a t-shirt’ bot. But I did indeed want some of these on t-shirts for my Sims, and decided I might as well share with all of you. Now, I did consider making the text Simlish, but in the end, I decided the bad English translation was the whole point. Sorry, Simlish purists.

Good morning, it's reblog time!

DO NOT ENGAGE WITH BLUE CHECKS

Elon Musk is paying blue checks for ad revenue in the replies of their Tweets now. He is only paying "verified" accounts for this, even if the account in question has hundreds of thousands of followers.

Do not reply, quote-tweet, or retweet any posts made by a user with a blue check.

Spread the word. Quit Twitter.

Um anyways what’s happening on Reddit

Reddit’s changing third-party app operating costs from “free” to “20 million a year” and the CEO falsely accused a beloved third-party app developer of threatening him. Said developer came back with receipts. Now everyone’s on strike.

Somehow everyone’s reporting this as “Reddit wants to charge for something it’s reasonable to charge for”, which is incorrect. (Said developer actually would support that.)

Here’s the post the developer made. It’s fucking WILD.

YUP

When I see important news:

@ new users remember to set your dash to chronological. I think old users will forget to tell you this because tumblr never randomly resets it like twitter does, so afaik literally everybody switched over to chrono as soon as they tried to introduce non-chrono, and then promptly forgot tumblr even has a non-chrono view. on tumblr we really dont do the “all mighty algorithm” thing.

INSTRUCTIONS

Account -> General Settings -> Dashboard Preferences -> Turn "best stuff first" toggle OFF

(And maybe mess with some other settings according to your preferences—I personally nixed "stuff in my orbit" and "based on my likes" because I only want to see bullshit from the people I follow, not the rest of the site's bullshit.)

And if you're on desktop, go download Xkit Rewritten too. It adds (and fixes) some site functionalities, a ton of us rely on it.

It took a few months, but my positive horror series is finally finished! A silly little project I started late September ended up with 14 images and rekindling my love of horror!

And as always, these designs can be purchased as stickers, prints, bags, pillows and more on my Redbubble store!
