also, if anyone could recommend a good virtual haircut tester, would appreciate it

looking for ways to grow out my hair in a way where I can do it without having 'conversations' with my parents so have to find one that looks natural on me. have basically been in stasis with my hair since I was 10 so I'm pushing lengthening through the idea that I need to experiment more because I don't want to go my entire life without trying something different, but (reasonably) they want me to actually have a style in mind. tried Ulta's but it's not really doing it for me

does faceapp still have the best gender filter or are there better alternatives out there now?

I staged a hostile takeover of the Geometry Dash forums when I was 11 that lasted for about half a week until I was usurped by the (until-then-inactive) senior admin

Honestly the reason I'm against allowing Tik-Tok and Rednote posts on the sub is because China is well known to be one of the absolute worst countries as far as worker treatment and worker's rights go.

I played 3.0, most people experienced it on 2.0. 3.0 is probably the more-accurate translation of the two? 2.0 has some notable errors in the final act that I recall that leads to some misinterpretation. YMMV, though

Billionaire (presumptive administrative figure) hitting a double Sieg Heil combo at his speech at the presidential inauguration: uwu he didn’t mean it he’s my friend and he doesn’t have internet he didn’t know he’s learning and growing can’t we all just get along

College students doing a sit-in to stop synthesizing gore video #5894: Send in the national guard. Unlimited Kent state. Leave no survivors. Your children are all Hitler. Billions must perish.

wokeness strikes again

Yakuza can get away with putting you in Kamurocho pretty much every time because the design philosophy of Kamurocho is to make it denser than osmium.

People (generally) don't like the open-world commute. It becomes tedious. They like being able to turn the corner and find something novel.

there is so much more I want to say but I just as well find myself speechless, holy shit, this is utterly appalling

'but acerola', you say, 'isn't all rendering on the GPU brute force?'

zoomerposting but iirc diary of a wimpy kid is written to be very grounded personalities-wise. the comedy in these books is derived from all of the characters being flawed in some notable ways and those flaws intersecting to create inane situations in an otherwise-realistic setting. The first book is essentially Greg’s unrelated-yet-consistent bouts of Main Character Syndrome coalescing into an incident in which to not totally fuck things up beyond repair, under duress, he has to eat a slice of moldy cheese that has been attached to the pavement for at least a decade.

there’s an element of farcicality on both sides of this where Rodrick tends to be disengaged and edgy, and Susan is overcorrecting and IIRC pretty puritanical, so it leads to this situation. It’s less aiming for commentary, more for absurdity.

actually one of my most consistent spelling Ls. like, okay–it's pronounced sehp-reht as an adjective and seh-puh-reit as a verb (at least in either americana or just where I live regionally), the only indicator for the second vowel verbally is either not there at all or reduced to schwa, so my brain goes "Okay, what's the closest sound and spelled word to it that I can reference...sever?" and then it's an a, because fuck you for assuming anything about english through context i guess

oh yeah no same, I'm constantly proofing my own posts, either for flow or just general grammar mishaps. I've got it in my head–semi-fallaciously–that I have above-average English grammar for my demographic (that being undergrad first-language American) but I'm always brought back down to earth when I, once again, type seperate instead of separate, or something along those lines
