Previously I have posted about a Nintendo of Europe downloadable premium animated wallpaper that featured a bizarre Toad eating the wallpaper. The files have finally been datamined, allowing the Wallpaper-Eating Toad to be observed in never-before-seen maximum quality.
i hate how many times i responded to dumb, misinformed, entitled whining with the healthy correct reaction ("welp, those bozos are in for a rude awakening and that's not my problem"), i wound up being wrong on the technicality that there's enough of that type of bozo to constitute a voting bloc
The WNBA transphobia blitz really felt like someone who spread false rumors to get a friend-of-a-friend they hate uninvited from group hangs, continuing to be obsessed.
“I feel so much safer Lily isn’t here, thank u 🙏“
“what do y’all think Lily’s even doing rn“
“what if we egged Lily’s car lol”
it also demonstrated the right will make their transphobia loud, obnoxious and obstructive, even when there are no relevant trans people involved. it was the clearest sign they will never stop throwing tantrums while trans people exist, no matter how much capitulation and compromise they're given.
I’ve been following the Digger discourse and I’m now unashamedly pro-Digger, even though I will never watch it and know that if I did watch it I would hate it
i feel like if you announce a flying car, showcase it in a live demo using tech that could never be street legal, and then claim said flying car will be sentient, your stock should either skyrocket or crater. this is like getting tased during an EKG and having it still comes out normal.
finally got to the dating sim route in Shuten Order and lmaooo holy shit this concept is diabolical. absolute sicko (non-derogatory) idea, Too Kyo fast becoming a certified banger factory
i don't think i've ever seen a speedrun that was so clearly just a gleeful demonstration of "you guys will never believe how they coded this motherfucker"
i've been enjoying all the dunking on this dumb dumb tweet but we probably should acknowledge that there is a "lo fi beats to relax/study to" contingency who aren't terribly concerned who makes the music they put on, and what he says probably *does* apply to a not-insignificant subset of that group
in all my years alive i’ve found with maligned groups, lived experience tends to put the lie to a homogenous bad rep. gay clubs, biker gangs, tons of music scenes, churches…
and somehow nothing has ever challenged the negative perception of frat houses
someone's going to argue that frats provide a sense of brotherhood, but its genuinely just that I Think You Should Leave skit about the guy who has to pay to be part of a friend group that bullies him
So that, but with an added layer of physical and sexual assault.
“What? Kappa Iota Pi threw the BEST parties on campus. Things got WILD. Me and the boys had SO much fun there. Things got OUTTA. CONTROL. 😏”
like, you hear it, right?
“It was such a sense of BROTHERHOOD. Not, like, brothers from birth. But like in movies where a bunch of ne’er-do-wells form an inseparable bond over the crimes they committed or a blood pact over a secret they’ll take to their graves. BROTHERHOOD!”

i have never once heard a girl say “and that creep at the bar just wouldn’t leave me alone… I don’t know what I would have done if the Zeta Theta Eta lads weren’t there to step in and go ‘hey, chump, the lady said no’ and paid for my Uber to make sure I got home safe”
That’s not to say i haven’t heard plenty of positive things said in defense of frats. I have. But they just… all sound like exactly what someone would say if they remorselessly committed a heinous sex crime with the assistance of one.
