Neil Gaiman Will Not Name His Sourdough Starter | Maximum Fun

Neil Gaiman is perhaps least-known for his interest in SCOBY-s (Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast), but that will no doubt change now

Maximum Fun

It’s a podcast to fall asleep to. John Moe interviews people on subjects they can be dull about and witter on endlessly. For the rest of the world, me droning on about bagel-making, beekeeping and water kefir grains will put them to sleep. Only here on Tumblr will it be appreciated.

Or, possibly, not.

i was in the grocery store and saw an onion on the ground and picked it up, absently saying “poor little guy.” behind me a teenage girl started laughing and then stopped and went “aww. i’m sorry for laughing. that’s nice actually.” and the cycle of cruelty is broken for another generation as a young person realizes that it is not embarrassing to have empathy for another thing that was once living, because certainly to be a lone white onion rolling on the ground in a supermarket would be terrifying to anyone

I haven’t seen it get mentioned on Tumblr yet but Samsung has just gotten caught in a hilarious scam: they apparently advertised how their latest phones can take great picture of the moon, compared to other phones!

But it turns out they aren’t using machine-learning to clear up blurry pictures, they’re using machine-learning to detect when you’re taking a picture of the moon, and then they swap in a saved PNG file of the moon.

A reddit user figured this out by taking a photo of the moon from Wikipedia, blurring it in photoshop, then trying to photograph it from across the room with all the lights turned out.

Their Samsung phone somehow managed to “clear up” the blurriness and recover details that weren’t there in the first place. Because it’s just cheating.

We need to stop acting like “romantic attraction” and “sexual attraction” actually exist. I know they’re really popular fanfic tropes, and can even be good when well written, but this has gotten out of hand. Some people think it’s real. Didn’t we learn anything from Goncharov? Please start tagging your posts with unreality.

in recent events of that zoo losing the clouded leopard, it reminded me of the time i went to a large petting zoo and there was a free roaming little black sheep. cutest little guy i ever saw, soi went to the zookeeper nearby and said ‘i think its really cute how you have a sheep thats allowed to just walk around. ‘ then the zookeepers eyes widened and he grabbed his walky talky and ran

allos will literally describe crushes with symptoms of like a cold or something. please take some ibuprofen and see if your feelings change i’m begging you

icedandcubed:

one thing i will never understand about (some of) the allos is why they think it’s rude if someone isn’t attracted to you? like if you ask someone out or tell them you’re into them or smth and they don’t reciprocate they’ll take it so personally like. bestie they have no control over who they think is hot and it’s not their job to lie to you to make you happy and conflate your expectations. hope this helps
