Choice paralysis
  • i got a reusable sticker book exactly for this reason. it's a notebook with pages of release paper so that you can stick and peel off stickers easily. it gives me the satisfaction of "using" my stickers without the permanence of losing them after sticking

  • Jellyfish are the storm clouds of the sea
  • i heard a similar idea that if humans can't see air then maybe undersea creatures can't see water. so fish would be like birds and crustaceans would be like land dwellers. so yeah jellyfish being storm clouds checks out

  • Western media in a nutshell
  • I'm less concerned about the specifics of where it happened and how many people died, and more concerned about how military personnel shot live ammunition at citizens.

    According to the Tiananmen Papers, a collection of internal Communist party files, soldiers started using live ammunition at around 10.30pm, after trying and failing to disperse the crowd with tear gas and rubber bullets.

  • Western media in a nutshell
  • my favorite part about these kinds of comments is that the article they commonly cite basically says there was no tiananmen massacre because the massacre happened outside of the square in the rest of beijing, and that's treated like it's some big gotcha

  • what a time to be alive
  • i've been looking at mamavation's reports and jumping directly to the raw data at the bottom. here's the bandages one

    there's also one for toilet paper which links to a lot of other items, and i'll throw in a free rick roll because i'm bored

    family size is so much more economical though

    i bought one box of curry and some potatoes, carrots, and onions for that. it took me three days to finish one serving and i still have two more prepped servings in the freezer. but at least i don't have to worry about curry cravings for another couple months

    i have no problem with chips, those are gone

    Mieruko-chan by Tomoki Izumi. Yay or nay?
  • i have a personal grudge against this series because i came up with the same idea a week before i discovered it and it didn't hit the right spot compared to my own imagination, but otherwise i think it's decent

  • AI wins 6 out of 6 copywriting battles, as judged by 700 humans
  • That's a very misleading title, since "battles" here is referring to survey results and not actual legal battles. The results make sense though. AI will probably generate the most popular kind of post because that's what has the most representation in its training data.

    The main issue here is what is "popular" changes over time, and is directly related to what is available to the public. So if AI floods the internet with the same style of posts because it's currently the most popular, that style will quickly become boring, and using AI to get clicks will essentially lead to it writing itself into obsolescence. Until it gets trained or fine tuned on a new dataset which includes its own results, which leads to a separate issue where the training data is objectively bad.

    anicent chinese wisdom is sometimes flawed

    Description: Three panels. The first panel is a picture of a sign on a window with Chinese that tells people to not to throw things out the window. There is a poor English translation on the sign that says "Do not shit in the air like a god." The second panel is D.W. from Arthur glaring at the sign. The third panel is D.W. saying "That sign won't stop me because I can't read!"

    that's how it works, right?

    Description: A three panel comic often referred to as "No take, only throw." The first panel is a dog biting a toy with the caption "I want to be good at my hobbies." The second panel is the dog looking angry and refusing to let go of the toy when a hand reaches out to throw it for the dog again, and it has the caption "No practice." The third panel is the dog, still angry and refusing to let go of the toy, with the caption "Only good."

    two cakes!

    if i had a nickel for every time i read a series where the most powerful exorcist was killed and he reincarnated in another world where he was looked down upon for his low magical talent, but his exorcism powers made him the strongest anyways, i'd have two nickels, and that's fine with me

    second one is alternatively titled "reincarnated as a son of an aristocrat"
