on the topic of not using AI for research, also be aware of using automatic Google results because they rely on AI too and don’t ACTUALLY know what they’re talking about

case in point: oh let’s Google what flowers are safe for cats!

Google: lilies! source? trust me bro

Lilies?

You mean perhaps the most poisonous plant for cats there is? that can cause sudden Organ Shut Down and Death? Thanks Google! Good thing I can rely on your handy suggestions so I don’t have to click on any actual websites and read to make sure your information is correct! (Also tulips and daffodils will also definitely Smite your cat but I’m not sure about the other flowers)

remember just because Google or an AI is telling you something confidently doesn’t mean it actually knows what it’s talking about

I trust no seasoned writer or researcher does this but this is more a message to newer or younger writers or anyone with less experience with Google and how it works

Apologies to my coworkers for my blank stares at lunch. The void is constant and interchangeable with whatever fixation I’ve latched onto;;

I think progressive groups have a bad habit of looking at inaccessible areas of academia and art and saying “this thing is for rich people, it sucks, get rid of it” (does not give poor people more opportunities) instead of “this thing should be 1000x cheaper” (does give poor people more opportunities). to goal should always be to improve the lives of the oppressed.

me @ all the progressive ppl shitting on opera while thousands of opera singers who are queer, trans, poc, disabled, poor, etc. beg ppl to take us seriously and stop painting opera as a rich white cishets only art form bc all it does is justify the intense discrimination already present within the opera industry and literally turns it into a “you should have known/what did you expect when you went into opera”

hey @staff what the fresh fuck is this

wow i sure wonder 🤔🤔 what the new layouts supposed to look like 🤔🤔🤔🤔 its a mystery

Don’t forget y’all that there’s a much better way for us to let Tumblr know what we think about specific changes, rather than @ ing staff or wip, and it’s sending in a support ticket and choosing feedback!

Tumblr reverted some of the asinine app decisions they made after a concerted feedback effort! So make sure to use this form! It’s what it’s for, but it’s not well advertised!

You can literally make anything and anyone problematic if you try hard enough seriously give me people and things and I’ll make them all “problematic” right now.

Dogs.

I don’t even have to do this one because PETA did it first by insinuating domestication is inherently abusive.

The sky

Used to trick and mock anyone who asks “what’s up?” A bullying tactic.

Super Mario Bros.

Stereotypes Italians, enforces the narrative of women who need men to rescue them, and encourages violence against turtles.

John Mulaney

He was over on the bench and he SAW what they did to Tyler and he did NOTHING.

Omfg

Pokemon

Making your pets fight repeatedly is animal abuse.

OP

OP literally argued that dogs were problematic but go off I guess

This is a work of art and should be sent to everyone as soon as they sign up for Tumblr so they know what they’re walking into
