hey netizens! i’m not sure how many people are aware, but youtube’s been slowly rolling out a new anti-adblock policy that can’t be bypassed with the usual software like uBlock Origin and Pi-Hole out of the gate
BUT, if you’re a uBlock Origin user (or use an adblocker with a similar cosmetics modifier), you can add these commands in the uBlock dashboard (under My Filters) to get rid of it!
Good for this person. This is exactly what you do. Screw the job.
I had a job that made me work an all nighter, 30 hours straight, over Thanksgiving. I resigned that Monday and it was one of the most satisfying decisions I’ve ever made.
Please pay attention to all the manipulation tactics this boss uses, because they’re pulling out every trick in the book.
“I’m not your boss, I’m your friend”
“Other people will be hurt by this and it’s your fault and I’m going to tell them all that”
Mocking language
Jobs are important too
“Be a team player”
“We’re your family too”
Talking as if this is a thing you must do
“We all make sacrifices”
Undermining your authority
“You caused all of this, really”
Accusing you of being “unprofessional”
“Look at the money you cost us”
“Just laugh it off and come back to work”
This is like a 101 course in how employers use guilt trips to coerce you into putting up with their bullshit. This is precisely why you should never trust those employers who insist that they’re “like a family.” They are not. It’s just a ruse so that your boss can neg you into putting your job ahead of your actual life.
honestly the least funny people on earth are obsessed with the Chad yes meme like
Where’s the joke here? What’s funny? This is just posting escapist fantasies, it’s the “wholesome meme” genre for rightoids. Also this just filled a niche that wrath of gnon or whatever type posts had, but way more annoying
this doesn’t render on windows unless next to a non-phallus hieroglyph so here is a version for windows users:

Prev: mobile user here! theres fucking nothing here
It’s supposed to look like this:
Prev: How did someone make this??
Unicode, the technical standard describing what text symbols exist in computers¹ and how they are encoded², has a block containing Egyptian Hieroglyphs. And since there exists an Egyptian Hieroglyph depicting a penis³, they included it in the standard. And since most computers follow that standard, they can display a penis.
You can check out unicode characters for example here:
1) There do actually exist different standards describing which characters computers should use and how they should be encoded. These days pretty much everyone uses UTF-8 (Unicode Transformation Format) because when exchanging data between computers or programs everyone must use the same encoding to get readable results.
This also means that unicode must (try to) support pretty much everything any human could ever want to write, which means it includes many things like mathematical symbols, special symbols for just about every language, emoji, combining characters that modify other characters, a variety of spaces, box drawing symbols, control characters for eg. text direction, …
2) Which is actually somewhat complicated. Unicode assigns each symbol a number, but then the text (sequence of symbols) needs to be converted into a sequence of bytes. This is done via the Unicode Transformation Format, which actually results in different characters needing differently many bytes to store.
Also, certain emoji (flags, anything with skin colors or gender, emoji depicting multiple people) are actually multiple characters that get squished into one symbol when rendered.
3) There actually exist three. The above, a version with cloth (𓂹) and one with emission (𓂺).
Also the unicode standard defines words like character, symbol, glyph, … to have exact meanings, I used the interchangeably here.
this made me have a complete meltdown with delight as I went from “bwahahaha penis sign lol lmao” to “wait if hieroglyphs are unicode there must be an oryx one” and THERE IS!
look at it! 𓃲
𓃲𓃲𓃲𓃲 <- herd!
and the newborn hartebeest!!! 𓃛
frog! horned viper! CREATURES! I’m so happy! I’m gonna be so insufferable with this!
it’s kinda crazy. you can use these like more detailed emojis, or even make whole stories without using a single letter. here’s an example:
it concerns me that people really don’t know that adhd isn’t a personality type or behavioral problem.
adhd isn’t someone who’s personality is driven by fun and disorder.
adhd is someone who’s brain goes all over the place looking for dopamine, because it doesn’t make or register enough of it, and when it finds a source of dopamine, it hyperfixates on it. it’s about deregulation of attention as well as emotions.
it’s not a person who can’t behave. a person with adhd can look like a lot of things. misconceptions about what adhd looks like kept me from even looking for a diagnosis, and it also kept myself and others (professionals, even) from taking my suspicions seriously.
everyone’s encouraged to reblog, but if you don’t have adhd, keep your additions to the tags.
Smart people can have ADHD. And a lot of the time, they compensate for the ADHD with intelligence- until they reach the point where they just can’t overcome it anymore, which is why a lot of gifted + ADHD people have good grades their whole lives and then “suddenly” crash and burn. For some it’s college, for some it’s grad school, for some it’s postgrad or professional exams like the bar. Whenever the things they have to do can no longer be brute-forced at the last minute.
ADHD is often lumped in with learning disabilities but it’s really a DOING disability. We know what we should do. Probably we know six ways to do it. The trouble is actually getting our brains to activate so we CAN do it. Sometimes it’s like you’re being controlled by aliens or something because you say “I need to do X” and you’re going to do it and you just. Don’t.
tbh the problem with dsmp fans thinking “lore” means plot is probably related to how some people think c!connor has no character traits whatsoever because he isn’t like having some big villain arc or dying in a war or whatever
1. he did and it was really funny because i sat and watched the whole thing and the dash had to watch my mental breakdown as it went on
2. yeah he’s said before that his thing is like, his viewers aren’t into the minecraft roleplay stuff, he enjoys doing it but bc his audience isn’t into it he doesn’t stream it. so instead he mostly appears on other people’s lore streams to support them and rp there instead
HE DID he went to some party and the funniest part is that the stream crashed at some point so like. his drunk ass literally had grunk drive him home just so he could put it back on. and then he left again
incredible. this tweet should be in a museum bc i had to double check i wasnt misremembering and this was the only mention of it help
“Stop letting rich people explore it for their own vanity and instead fund scientists who know what they’re doing down there, are exploring it for the actual betterment of humanity and their understanding of the world we live in, and won’t go down there in subs that havn’t been peer-reviewed to hell and back” =
