✪ Happy Black Fistory Month! ✪

The final Pokémon Presents countdown animation has been released! It features one adorably chubby Pikachu getting dressed up for the big day.

The 30th anniversary Pokémon Presents is tomorrow!

Crude drawing of the new generation 10 Pokémon starter pombon, a little orange pomeranian, with silly imagined evolutions. The middle evolution pombon has the same sized body but more fluff, the final evolution has the same sized body, EVEN more fluff and angry eyebrows

evolution just brings pombon further from the groomers

Yeah -- that's a really scary thought actually. Each person is programming themselves to think in specific ways and use certain sets of vocab & phrases, which have specific prescribed/proscribed meaning, but that doesn't make sense to anyone outside of their own context... that's well creepy

My wife and i saw you from across the pokecenter... want to earn 1.5x EXP from battles?

JESUS CHRIST ALMIGHTY LMAO

A four panel comic strip: Pokemon x Oldboy. Daesu from Oldboy, dressed like Ash from Pokemon, says "Finally I am the Pokemon master! What are you still laughing about, you slick bastard?! I beat you!". Woo-jin says "That pretty little girlfriend you have, Daesu... do you know who she really is?". The final panel shows Pikachu wearing a bra and makeup. "Pika~"

You know, I went there in a quick comic once, and if I live to 100 I'm not sure I'll ever atone for it.

LMAO

Our minds 😭😂

Mrs. Wavychu giving that "drunk tourist wine mom on permavacation" energy and telling whatever bar patrons will listen that her "husbandchu" loves to watch before she strarts lustybragging about "how big" Wailords are okay now I'm done 🤣

We've long passed that point of no return. ^__^

"I can do things with your pokeballs that'd make you scream" lmao

They both look like that couple on vacation that approaches you at a hotel bar and asks you if you're into being swingers.

Yes and no. I know one who isnt very religious VS another who is

I have friends who do this and it makes me truly sad, because they all have loving people around them but feel less of a burden or that LLM give good advice ? To me it is a sickness

the number of clients I’ve had sheepishly admitting to using ChatGPT between our therapy sessions just makes me sad. I just want better for people. I want people to be able to trust themselves instead of turning to other sources as authority figures, most especially over a glorified autocorrect.

All i got is my pencil and my mind, not necessarily in that order.

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

Even that is too much because its humanizing a nonexistent thing

lol i have such an egghead

A friendly face from two lonely friends to help you all start your morning

Yeah. Ive gotten that before also and the disheartening is palpable in those cases

I try to stay encouraging for my friends that ho through it worse than me and be a positive beacon but its hard when gremlins keep trying to snuff out lights everywhere you look

I guess… keep your heads up to the best of your ability and try to live with kindness and empathy no matter whom you are

I feel weird when ppl thank me for saying stuff like this. I know it absolutely needs to be said and more ppl need to say it but also right now the bar is literally in hell and it feels like such a bare minimum that should be more. I dunno anymore. so much needless cruelty for the sake of it

We deserve better and should accept no less.

People often feel comfortable telling me things because I genuinely do try to listen. And I’m the type that never minds helping or listening as long as I’m not overwhelmed by the weight of it all. Too much gets to be crushing.

…

Feeling overwhelmed has honestly become commonplace now.

Watching a million people lobotomize themselves in real time which is somehow worse.

People here dont even know how to live for themselves anymore and…

Man.

I try not to let it get to me but I do listen to people. And i pay attention. And the AI brainworns in my family and friends’ heads are…

Overwhelming feels like a gross understatement
