The misuse of the "insult to life itself" quote from Miyazaki on AI burns my yams so bad bc the original context is being disgusted with how a characters movements are dehumanizing to disabled people specifically bc of his empathy for a disabled friend and it's such a sadly rare sentiment, this cognizance of how we casually inflict indignity upon disabled people and how he finds it disgusting, I hate seeing it obfuscated

In the video he sees character animation where the presenter comments on how the AI can be used to model "grotesque movements humans can't even imagine." And Miyazaki immediately mentions that he thought of his physically disabled friend, who struggles with movement, with the implication being that what's "insulting to life itself" is the degradation of people like him to grotesque monsters. Regardless of my feelings about AI art I don't think it's worth obscuring this humane thought process to have a rhetorical weapon

im FACKING sorry alright

The celebrity Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavors being some of the best ones is like the retail equivalent of having to go to a restaurant and order a rootin tootin yeehaw cowboy burger or something

The Tonight Dough is a downright hedonistic ice cream flavor concept but in order to obtain it you have to purchase a pint of ice cream with Jimmy Fallon's face on it and then see him in your freezer every day for a week

why are there so many tonight dough posts

this is how i envision the dialogue in severance having never watched it and only seeing peoples incomprehensible posts about it

I'M CRYING WHY DID TRUMP TAG PAPYRUS

HAHAHHAHA THIS IS SO FUNNY TO ME

fanart for podcast characters is so funny like how do you know

hey guys? um?

its very great to me that every single inkfish splatoon character has ugly baby pictures no exceptions. Its so awesome they made the babies look like that

Its especially funny seeing how the gmod splatoon community handles it because ive looked and its one of two ways and both of them suck:

1: weird blob that’s accurate but also super goofy looking

2: Making the normal inkling model smaller and usually recoloring the skin (bad. It sucks so bad)

my favorite of these images ever is one titled “birth of carlos” and it drives me into hysterics every time i see it because

it looks like a corpse

I love it so much i drew it and my friends made it a discord sticker to torment people with

i like sailing myths and superstitions because most of them can be boiled down to "if the ocean doesn't like you it will chew you up and spit out your bones. and if it really loves you it will swallow you whole and keep you forever. good luck 👍"

the biggest scam tumblr pulls is all the people who come here convinced they want to be tumblr famous

the best experience you can have on tumblr is goofing around with your mutuals and one of the worst experiences is having a post with 20k+ notes.

i love a good first contact day hand-kissing-with-tongue meme, don't get me wrong, but put that aside for just one post. i think that from a vulcan perspective there's something really precious about that moment, and to me, it even explains their (very vulcan) affection for humankind from then on.

yes, vulcans do sometimes touch hands in a sensual way, but when you think about sarek and amanda touching hands publicly in "babel," it's not a "public display of affection" in a get-a-room way. it's very affectionate, but it's a public display of affiliation.

i don't know, just imagine that you're the vulcans. you go investigate this warp signature, and you know these people have never met aliens before. first contact is a dangerous mission! these aliens (earthlings) could very likely just shoot you!

and so you land, and these new aliens tentatively approach. no shooting yet, so you give a formal gesture of respect. and this alien tries to mimic it... and then basically embraces you like you're a member of their family.

i think that would really endear me to this new species!

I hate the modern internet. I was curious about how bad things are outside of ad blockers and my numerous Firefox extensions. I went to fandom to test and was floored

What the hell am I seeing? Fuck fandom. Fuck cookies. Fuck ads. Fuck logging in. Give me the good readible webpages please.

Of note, there is an alternative in this instance but usually there is not.

Perfect... I wish it was always like this...
