tanisnikana,

I’d turn into a big old land tortoise and then just be a turtle.

Benefits:

  • strong shell
  • feets for marching
  • cute tail bump
  • adorable smile
  • can flip friends over when they need help
  • turtle

Siri automatically switched languages to read my wife's Japanese to me for the first time and I'm so happy. (kbin.run)

We've been married for more than five years and in all that time, whenever she would send me a message in Japanese while I was out and about with my headphones in, Siri would just say "(wife) just sent you a message I can't read" and be done with it....

Well, did you do what she asked? Or did you stand there in the grocery store, excitedly posting on Lemmy, then milklessly return home?

tanisnikana,

完璧だ。

tanisnikana,

4,000 weeks. 750k hours. That’s what the average human gets.

This is how I keep count.

What linguistic constructions do you hate that no one else seems to mind?

It bugs me when people say “the thing is is that” (if you listen for it, you’ll start hearing it… or maybe that’s something that people only do in my area.) (“What the thing is is that…” is fine. But “the thing is is that…” bugs me.)...

tanisnikana,

I hate when people use the transitive “going to be” to describe “is.”

“Hey, what’s your phone number?” “It’s going to be 911-551-0911.”

Her phone number is 911-551-0911 and has been such for a while now. Why does she feel the need to use a transitive verb structure to describe that it will change to that in the future?

I see people using this “it’s going to be” structure for ordering food (they are ordering food now, saying “spaghetti, please” is much less weird than saying “it’s going to be spaghetti”), as part of my job when someone is reporting current or past statistics, and events that aren’t coming up or aren’t scheduled, and are in the past.

tanisnikana,

Don’t dial that phone number to see if it works; you’ll get the fuzz.

tanisnikana,

Cops who… aren’t bastards?

I don’t follow.

tanisnikana,

You post comments really quickly. You made your Lemmy account yesterday, and you’re nothing but a fascist mouthpiece. All of your comments just reek of that… desperation.

tanisnikana,

We won’t include that which seems to destroy us. It’s a social contract and fascists don’t hold to its terms.

You know this. That’s why you’re here.

tanisnikana,

I’m 38 and I still can’t watch that.

tanisnikana,

I mean, I’m asexual and intensely sex-repulsed, and my wife is asexual too, and I am madly in love with her even after being married for eight years.

It’s romance and friendship; she’s my best friend and wife. I’ll kiss her, hold her hand, rub her back and feet, buy snacks for her, loads of stuff I wouldn’t do with my friends.

I mean, I bought a house with her. I wouldn’t do that with just anybody.

tanisnikana,

No no, you’re right, those meme phobias are dumb at best and hella upsetting at worst.

tanisnikana,

Tolerance is a social contract upheld by all who are tolerant. If someone violates that social contract, say, a nazi, then they are not governed by the social contract.

One cannot tolerate the intolerant.

Intolerance must be met with expulsion and force to maintain a civil society.

That means you, get off Lemmy.

tanisnikana,

Your user history is disgusting. You’re constantly contentious. You pick fights with others, ask them to cite behaviors you have or haven’t exhibited. No one is gonna do homework for a bad faith actor. I would be surprised if you had any friends who would willingly talk to you in real life.

And yeah, if you got hit out there in real life, I would laugh while you would rub your jaw. I celebrate nazis getting hit.

That’s the kind of person you are.

You could change, but we both know you’re not going to.

You’re just gonna keep on playing your slimy little cryptofascist game, and try to trick people who don’t see your shenanigans.

And you will never ever enjoy the comforts of a sincere human relationship.

tanisnikana,

write me a better essay next time

tanisnikana,

slowly, delicately, gently pressuring the button until the most slightest click is heard, then presumably all hell breaks loose immediately, forthwith

tanisnikana,

Yup, verified, it gets to the menu, tries to connect, and dies.

I wonder if my yuzu steam deck version would do that.

tanisnikana,

Terra Ignota used carefully calculated automobile tragedies as a pretext for civil war.

tanisnikana,

Plus there’s no barrier, so you can make eye contact while talking with your buddy.

tanisnikana,

“Why doesn’t my child talk to me anymore?”

She will sincerely ask that, not even understanding that she said the answer with that fucked up letter.

tanisnikana,

I walked out after fourteen years, leaving behind my r/feminineboys that I built from zero to 200K over a decade, and I’m not looking back.

Apollo or die.

Or Voyager now, I suppose.

Brands that don't buy enough Twitter ads will lose verification (www.theverge.com)

Starting August 7th, advertisers that haven’t reached certain spending thresholds will lose their official brand account verification. According to emails obtained by the WSJ, brands need to have spent at least $1,000 on ads within the prior 30 days or $6,000 in the previous 180 days to retain the gold checkmark identifying...

tanisnikana,

wait wait wait, lemmy get this right

The pun was there the whole time!
