yes it features a world of anthropomorphic animals but by far the least believable thing about zootopia 2 is that the fight against a racist conspiracy would ever be led by two cops

I don’t think there are “harmless” ways to use the evil AI machine billionaires are shoving into everything for evil purposes, actually. There are cases where the benefits may exceed the harms, but anything that further enriches the tech oligarchs is not “harmless.”

if i gave up drinking, i would be less despondent there would be fewer demons nothing would improve radically but a lot of little things would improve noticeably and a lot of infrequent major problems – like suicidal self-hatred, for one – would fade considerably a strong person would do this

a neighbor is having a gathering. one of her guests has a car alarm. it goes off every six minutes. it has gone off every six minutes for an hour. i want to take this guest by the hand. i want to ask them: are you sitting at an angle. are you familiar with keys. is the car new. is it yours legally

my little boy and i unearthed this rock after an old-man-and-the-sea-esque struggle it weighs as much as a keg and is less fun when i said i was surprised i could lift it, my little boy said 'not me papa, you are strong' so on the final day of the year i got my favorite compliment ever

i am standing on a big rock and drinking a big beer and am happy because i love my little boy and he loves me

alternate reality burt the cop shoots after george *six* times, with bystanders milling about, and doesn't hit a fucking thing so while it's a wonderful life is a fantasy, its depiction of the police is realistic

now is the time of year when my insecurity and fear lead me to withdraw from community as far as possible and delete all my social media in lieu of deleting myself anyway, back again for the third time
