I really love hearing about shipping discourse because every time i see dicussions
about proshippers or darkshippers or whatever i get reminded there are yet still people out
there who are so much more chronically online than i am, and that makes me feel slightly better
about myself.
...Seriously though, all this discourse is profoundly stupid why are we doing this
On social media I often see these posts that are like,
"wow, its so strange that neurotypical people do this".
And like, half of the time the thing theyre talking about is
the most insane shit that no reasonable person would ever actually do.
...And then I realize the poster is probably from the us and it all starts making sense.
Probably one of the worst things about talking to people online is when
you're chatting with someone and it becomes clear they've stopped paying
attention to anything you say and are just talking to someone else in dms.
Irl, it's not socially acceptable to get out your phone and start chatting mid-conversation,
so why do people do this sort of stuff online?
Apologies for the vagueposting lol, just needed to get that off my chest.
I just discovered https://wd40drinkingdiary.blogspot.com/ and it has instantly become my
favorite blog. The gimmick of having every post start with a review of a softdrink and then start talking
about something entirely different and only vaguely related for the rest of the post is incredibly funny.
And the posts are all great too! Pretty thought provoking stuff on there.
I started playing Yokai Watch in japanese a few days ago.
Its been pretty fun! ...Though i do have to look up most words.
It always kind of annoys me when people casually call beef "protein". Like, seriously?
I couldnt think of a less appetizing term if i tried!
Whats next, are we gonna start calling chips sodium?
Re-reading some of my old blogposts made me realize how much i miss
these sort of informal, very personal blogs. The internet is too corporate nowadays.
I've decided I'll write at least one of these a day.
We'll see how that goes, i guess.
Yes, i shamelessly stole this idea from CSS Tricks.
What, are you gonna sue me?
I just saw someone online saying they want to make more "mutualships",
and i think that might be my new least favorite word.
