You don’t own your Kindle books because you bought them from Amazon

I don’t own mine because I pirated them

We are not the same

edit: I actually try to circle back around and buy physical copies of any book I really enjoy. But I’m much better about paying for video games, tabletop games, and even journalism than I am fiction… I think my bezos resentment gets in the way a bit there.

I’d be interested to see any sociological evidence supporting that theory if there is any.

No doubt! But as others are pointing out in this thread, words often migrate from culture to culture and I don’t think using “thicc” is any more than using “cool” is (which also used to be edgy, AAVE-sourced slang).

“OH LAWD” in all caps hits different to me. It sounds like caricature of an accent, not just earnest adoption of a fun word.

I don’t think “thicc” is AAVE. That is pretty much an Internet-ism as the original post says. “OH LAWD” though, yeah, is cringe.

AGNG?

Thanks!

I mean, what is the background in the second image from?

Wait what am I looking at

Women are so missed and loved the fact they were down to you and I think they are you and big boy and I can get them out from here in a few days or two weeks until they can start by the way back in a bit I think it will autocomplete me know if I need it or anything or not to unilaterally it is also not the only one of them but it doesn’t have a great time for them but they have a great job and I think they’re not to be the best pizza ever had a webapp in their power orientation whatever it was a closed practice all day but they are becoming more of the best people who have a lot to go through some things

I assume OP just did their best to make up an example. She doesn’t say anywhere that she is a superfan herself or even has read the books at all.

It’s a real Tumblr post!

You don’t need admin to plug your computer into the AV do you? I assumed it was OP’s computer.

the human still got the job and was paid for it, he was just saved the hassle of

These are hourly contract roles, so that isn’t how it works. “saved the hassle of” - the human lost working hours.
