YouTube should be embarrassed to have spent any amount of money developing this feature. The only options the AI could generate was slamming two titles of videos together and they are all "low-interest". Yeah, great work, guys!

Any time that I try to change any part of my workflow (no matter how small) it takes GREAT effort to retrain my brain. I have become so automatic. It's always worth it though!

Always something new in the comment section

YouTube comment: "His mouth is agape! Vile!
Anakin Skywalker is no mouth-breather but a Human being, don't degrade him into a mere intellectual aka sith"

YouTube Comment: "3:51 "devolved to" - mouth-breather misuse of "de" prefix to render a fake term.

It is fake as it spits in the face of "evolution" being a continuous adaptation to ever changing environment = you can't "de" or "un" it, it juat is, it can not be "undone as ot innately has o back or forward, it is just thr essence of change, it is constantly shifting never static enough in a conclusive ppint that is finished product which can be reversed.

Thinking is alien to those who ise the miuth to breathe, this is why you misuse suffix and preffix, your sense of "morphology" and sintax are monotone mess. That is why you are sith aka intellectual instead of Sapient"

Stop saying that my James Sunderland looks like Tek Knight!

James Sunderland in rotoscope animation style. Arguably similar in appearance to The Boys' Tek Knight...

Am I stupid for thinking the phrase "going steady" was "going study"? I swear it's only used in high-school movies and the "date" they go on was usually a study date so it made sense to me...

Is there a Sonic the Hedgehog game that is good? I don't mean good for a Sonic game, or guilty-pleasure good, or so silly that it has some charm, I mean straight-up top to bottom good gameplay. Does such a thing exist? I would love to have a higher opinion of the franchise

I have really fond memories of going to the library as a kid to use the computer to play Teen Titans Battle Blitz on Cartoon Network's website. I saw older kids playing it, and wanted to try it out b/c I loved the show. But Initially, I didn't know how to play AT ALL (too young!) (quick 🧵)

Before modern medicine, whatever ailment you had became your thing. They just gave you a nickname and moved on. "Him? That's Tom the Bloodless. His iron levels are low since the war - he's a bit anemic." "That guy? Bum-Leg Billy. He bumped his knee the wrong way on a table corner in the tavern."

The strangest part about getting my septum corrected is nerves are in new places and sometimes, as I recover, the inside of my nose feels twisted. Very strange sensation. Breathing is nice though!
