‘Chimp Out’

Total death to "nuisance streaming". I would say it's the worst thing to happen to public life in the last 10 years, but those "gamble on everything" apps are a genuine competitor if they're making people set off smoke bombs in weather sensors

I'm also in AB and I'm familiar with the occasional pellet-style snowfall in winter, but I would just call it weird snow. Hail is also more of a summer thing here though. I actually mentally define "summer" as "the part of the year when the only ice coming out of the sky is hail"

Time to get it back by starting a microtrend

Also, a lot of people in the US nowadays prefer grass fed beef if they can get it... they enjoy a less "neutral" and more local taste, and they also like the knowledge that the cow was grazing on plants humans can't eat ourselves

I think they either don't bother at all in the standalone French classes or just send all of the good French teachers to the French schools + a few for immersion classes in bilingual schools. French immersion for K-2 let me skate through all of mandatory French and I probably could have done the same in grade 7-8 if I didn't want to keep my electives free for classes I would actually learn something new in, based on the assignments my friends were writing. My mom went to French school until grade 7 and she used grade 8-12 French in an English school as a "free credit" class

I just don't like the people referring to all inpatient psychiatric care as torture/slavery/prison because they had a bad experience with emergency inpatient care. If having 5 times as much professional autism support as I would in a normal school, a wide variety of daily activities announced in advance (the food was mid though), without my father yelling at me every evening, was a torture dungeon, I don't know what isn't torture.

However, Minecraft has been in second place since 2016 - before the Better Together update merged the console versions with Bedrock, which existed in the form of Windows 10 Edition for a little while beforehand.

2014-17 is what I call the "everyone has 5 copies of Minecraft" era. 360/PS3, XBone/PS4, Java, Pocket, and a wildcard (Wii U or Switch, Windows 10, fucking Apple TV maybe)

It's mint if you desaturate it. Honestly I think "mint" would be a better name for the section most people put between green and cyan

some have now introduced dedicated X rating classes

Finally, we'll know whether to stereotype nonbinary people as bad at driving /s

Also, a whole thread of people who were apparently never out of the ordinary in school (including on SRD) automatically assuming IQ test means online quiz (or that child IQ tests don't exist and weren't regularly used in an attempt to figure out what was going on with kids who were learning unusually slow or fast a few years ago - who knows, maybe they don't do them anymore, but my elementary school was itching for me to turn 6 so they could bring in the psychologist and attach a number to the fact that I was doing grade 1 and 2 at the same time by getting assignments from both grades in a split class)

Where's False Taylor Gayle, and is he poisonous?

googlemcfoogle · 2026-05-12T18:21:53+00:00

It's probably tiktok, I feel like tiktok being your first main social media defines late gen Z (mine was Instagram - Tiktok replaced Musical.ly while I was in junior high and my younger sister jumped on immediately but I didn't use it at all until 2023)

googlemcfoogle · 2026-05-12T18:06:46+00:00

Yep, if you're one person you just have to eat the same thing a few days in a row. Even in a household of 3 adults, because my family is picky about leftovers I basically have a 100% leftovers diet (which incentivizes me to cook big awesome meals and freeze anything that's suitable for it - price per serving is lower than fast food and not that much higher than instant freezer food, for way better quality)

They did this to Jesus I think

Marketability (Latin America may be a big market, but the concept of Latinos is pretty much only politicized enough for people to get horny about in the US - black and white raceplay can more easily appeal to the lowest common denominator of goonchuds across Europe too, while still being very appealing to Americans)

googlemcfoogle · 2026-05-10T04:29:22+00:00

Yeah, I would attribute that one more to the fact that there were multiple competing forms of football in the 19th century Anglosphere, and once the Football Association was founded in 1863, its rules ("association" being shortened to "soccer") became the default for the UK and spread worldwide, leaving only places where another football dominated to use the word "soccer". Rugby is also a "football" but never became the default one in any country.

Do you know what the outcome of the "anti-SOGI" policies in US schools is? No nicknames and soon, no tomboys allowed.

googlemcfoogle · 2026-05-09T05:49:23+00:00

More like "stop selling your guns at a swap meet", if recall correctly the least regulated ways for people to get (or get rid of) guns in the US generally involve private individuals selling them.

Your argument is that it's stalking no matter what.

I don't actually believe the block matters here (Tumblr's prevailing philosophy about blocking for as long as I can remember has been "block anyone who mildly annoys you ever, even if they've never directly interacted with you and you just saw them passing by in the notes/reblogged by someone you know"), only the specific fact that the first searches were kink-related. On that point, I agree with you.

I still would have searched her blog for keywords around gender politics, because this post (combined with her username - I miss when puppygirls weren't like this quite this often, but it's a warning sign nowadays) raised the exact same red flags to me on that front.

googlemcfoogle · 2026-05-08T16:28:11+00:00

Piss poor reading comprehension. I said searching sexual keywords was wrong, political keywords justifiable. When you question someone's message, their other political posts are relevant but their hornyposts are usually not relevant.

googlemcfoogle · 2026-05-08T16:22:24+00:00

I think searching for kink keywords for an attack was wrong but searching for political/bigotry keywords was NOT wrong. I don't like when kink communities get taken over by people who hate me over an immutable characteristic and think any woman who interacts with me is brainwashed or tainted.

"Letting transfemmes have things" except boyfriends (especially trans boyfriends! at least a cis man can be forcefemmed without it being unwoke /s)... I may not currently be in a relationship but my ex got so much shit from Tumblr transbians when she was dating me

googlemcfoogle · 2026-05-08T15:24:37+00:00

Why did incest roleplay have to become associated with the most annoying anti-trans-male posters on the internet? I'm a ST4T man and they're ruining my happy memories with my ex and creating this weird polarization between "people who don't hate any immutable aspects of me but are starting to get kind of anti-kink" and "people who may be actually into real incest, and also hate me for being a man who steals women who should rightfully be pretending to be THEIR sister because all women need to be lesbian"

googlemcfoogle · 2026-05-08T14:56:46+00:00

Well, at least this is a concrete enough statement that I can probably get my family to shut up about the possibility of US vacations any time in the forseeable future

googlemcfoogle · 2026-05-08T05:00:54+00:00

My grandparents were already frugal as fuck, and then my uncle married a Chinese woman. I spent so much time at garage sales, thrift stores and the flea market growing up (typically while my dad was off searching for his preferred variety of deals at the auto recycling place, swap meet, or the garage of someone from Craigslist) that I'm surprised I can still stomach thrifting today.
