post: I noticed that in act 1 there's a loaded gun mounted on the wall there. I bet by the end of act 2 it will have been fired
all the replies: you're a fucking idiot
*after act 2*
all the replies: how the fuck did you know that
okay but we can't know for sure that the loud noise and bright flash offstage—which occurred after the character who was holding the gun exited the stage with it—was a gunshot, because we didn't get to directly see it
I reblogged this last month, tagged it, and said “might as well see if it works.” I used this video as a reference to find all the forms that i needed (which is A LOT, especially if you’re a dependent) and sent them through the mail, not really allowing myself to hope.
dude.
$2,714 of medical debt from my top surgery - gone. im shaking this was such a weight on me for 2 years and it fucking worked. what the fuck.
This is huge. Sharing for my US friendos.
Hospitals like to hide these policies under a lot of successive links in obscure places, so if you don't see anything right away, keep looking! Get friends to help! Make it a scavenger hunt. A game where you're assassins sent to slit capitalism's throat
not many people know this but when talking about your multiple pronoun-using friend you build up a combo meter for every subsequent unique pronoun you use
ARTFIGHT!!

Twice a year in Hawaii the sun passes directly overhead and objects cast no shadow. It’s a phenomenon called “Lahaina Noon”
You're full of shit, Hawaiians are just able to levitate coconut milk.
My fellow bird nerds will understand the breathless excitement I felt to turn a corner in the wetlands and witness this quiet scene! The secretive King Rail is a bird I’ve rarely been able to photograph, let alone film. How cool that my first chance to catch one on video was such a gorgeous and relaxed bird.
This is the funniest thing I've ever read. I would have LOVED to see that

Maybe quantum physics is different in a universe where a mob boss built a working supercollider that could create portals to other worlds in 2018
Holy **** oh right okay. So I was about to make a post about how using speech to text has already been a game changer for me but as you can see by the line of asterix at the start of this post the bloody thing auto censors swear words. (Yet bloody got through, ig Because it is a description and also British slang.). Hint: the word I was trying to say there starts with F and ends with K.
Oh and guess what else you can't say you can't say? **** [Nipples]. had to type that myself. penis is ok but **** [clitoris] isn't, and all my attempts to say "clit" were Misunderstood, which may just be my speech but at this point I am not willing to give the benefit of the doubt. Vagina is OK too but every time I say it there is a moment when an * shows up on screen first before the full word does. this doesn't happen when I say the word penis.
It is completely heinous. Anybody who needs speech to text is immediately forced to comply with the rules set out by people in a position of power and then enforced by a machine — a machine that is a very powerful accessibility tool. Imagine trying to dictate a letter to a doctor or fill in an E consult with speech to text, only to have words of your anatomy censored as if they are taboo. there is already far too much stigma around genital physical health — and note that I could say genital but can't say **** [clitoris] — for it to be okay for these words to be censored.
And even if somebody just wants to swear In a message to their friends or write smut/**** [pornography], they should be able to. There is no justification for this feature. No reason for it to be default.
I'm trying to find a way around this. There is a settings icon on the little speech to text bar that comes up, but this only gives me options For the speech typing launcher, auto punctuation, and to set the default microphone. it's making me extremely angry
When I was taking classes on becoming an interpreter, the first thing, literally the very first lesson, was that you accurately convey exactly what the client says, including tone. If my client called someone the equivalent of a "fucking cunt" in their own language, that was what had better come out of my mouth, without getting precious about not wanting to swear or use the c-word. The interpreter's thoughts and opinions are supposed to be invisible.
Machine translation should be held to at LEAST the same minimum standard.
(Replying to OP but reblogging the post above because I like it too)
It's so especially gross when people try to censor female sexuality only and not male. Like neither should be censored but the unequalness is just beyond me. I wish we lived in a world where people didn't think other people's bodies (eg female bodies, eg the production of content/writing about female bodies) are theirs to control. Like you are only allowed to write about male body parts - including wrt protecting one's health regarding them, but female body parts must be hidden as if they're shameful, and not communicated? So dystopian.
Because nothing is shameful about a body part, and what's actually shameful is a system that suppresses communication and thus vital information about them.
I would think the root cause of selective censorship like this is entwined with misogyny, and even worse, censorship then perpetuates misogyny because it shows people (especially young people and children) that the only sexuality that is not shameful is the male one. It's disgusting that society is like this, although very unfortunately, probably not surprising to most of us.
not feeling safe at home is just such a visceral violent thing and if you’ve ever experienced that I’m really sorry, you’re brave and strong and it’s gonna be okay
