  • FLuffee Talks. (Hey… What’s up?)

    No particular reason. FLuffee is a major old schooler that’s been pumping out content since the earliest days of YouTube who specializes in pop news and shock-jock content. I used to devour his content when I was like 11-15, and I think I just got overexposed and lost taste for it.

    I’ve gone back occasionally over the years and he’s still at it. If his content style works and he can maintain it even some 16-18 years later, I say more power to him.







  • I just met this lil’ bitch from Arcadia (oh-woah)
    From the planet Nympho, eat my babies up, ooh
    Her mothership got missions on my radius (oh-woah)
    She captured me and left me in a state of awe, doom
    Take me to your universe (yeah)
    Take me to a time where everything reversed, ah, ooh
    I just got this lil’ bitch from Arcadia (oh-woah)
    Intertwine ourselves until we facing our moon

    Is this it? It’s from the song “Arcadia” by the band MDMA.

    Edit: hell it probably isn’t it lol based on the time line. It’s the only thing that pulled up when I searched online.




  • Just switched from a 2015 Corolla S to a 2014 RAV4 Limited, absolutely love the feel and I don’t imagine I’m ever going to leave the brand honestly. Toyota just makes damn good cars and they last forever. Look for good used RAV4s or 4Runners in your area pre-2016. My mechanic has swore by the engine Toyota used from 2008-2016, he says it’s probably their best engine they made, and after that they changed styles.



  • Classy@sh.itjust.workstoAsklemmy@lemmy.mlIs "female" offensive?

    I disagree. Male/female is used plenty with humans, but it tends to be used in a more clinical or ‘objective’ manner, such as in legal documents, autopsy reports, police suspect descriptions, things of that sort.

    I think the use of, e.g., “Look at those four males over there”, it has a bit of a connotation of separation of the personhood of the people involved. A man is a living, thinking being; he is worthy of dignity, and he has a soul. A ‘male’ can almost be called an ‘it’: it has a characterization of cold, scientific classification.
