i know "technology is magic" is pretty cliche by now, but the thing is that it IS magical actually.

we are so saturated by magic, that it's become passe.

we're fucking tired of magic. there's too much of it. give me a tea and a sunset

these jira tickets are magical and. there are so many of them. what would my therapist say

preach. i had to ask multiple people to stop leaving voice messages in our activist group chats. i can read about ten times faster than someone can speak, and i don't want to listen to "um, ah, it's like, well, it's like..." for 15 seconds while they gather their thoughts. plus you can't skim back through a voice message if you forget part of what they said, you have to take a guess at where to seek to and then wait for them to get to the point again.

gather your thoughts, type them out in a text message, and you won't be wasting anyone's time.

while i dearly wish my relatives would stop sending me multiple voice notes that say the same thing, this is the middle ground when one side can't read chinese (me)

"whataboutism" has a point because some things genuinely will never matter

as a gift, one could go to tumblr to say that it is a moral failing to spend a minute caring about this, when one could care about anything else

plus, forced masculinisation is pretty funny actually. they make some funny posts

Someone insulted me for pulling out "the thesaurus" for using words that I thought were very simply. Oh no

that round where they guessed the right answer based only on 7:36 pm was crazy

also I have to point out that in the telescope picture, the red arrow was actually pointing to the eyepiece, not the finder scope. the finder is the mini telescope attached to the body of the big telescope. they messed that one up

another fun quiz show is Says You!, but that one is a radio show.
