No, he's addicted to Her.
Nah I think that says... Uh... Heeeim. Yea.
The film?
You can say even heroin on tv. You can even say hero without being accused of sexism.
But what is he addicted to? We'll never know!
This new coddled baby internet for children where you can't say adult words is getting tiring.
When does the adult internet come back?
You didn't fucking curse one goddamn time in your reply.
But that's the stupid part. It's not even about cursing. It's about words like heroin, kill, rape, etc. I mean is this tiktok or what
Yeah, it's not about the choice of language someone uses, it's about simultaneously wanting to use a word but also not use it. At least for the self-censors.
And it's about someone else wanting to show others that thing, but for whatever reason deciding that some words used are too bad or something. And then doing it on words where the "problem" comes from the meaning rather than the word itself (unlike "fuck" or "shit" where they are "ok" topics but "unacceptable" terms to use and frequently used outside of their original meanings anyways).
Censorship is dumb in general (other than redacting personal information to prevent harassment), but this whole "I want to use words but not really use them" and "I think people should see this content, but they can't handle it without hiding some things" are extra dumb.
True, this self-cens*rship is ann*ying! We want our freed*m back!
It's *ur, y*u f*ul m*uthed cunt
Edit: f*rmatting fail
S*rry
F*rgiven
Thank y*u

When does the adult internet come back?
When the advertisers leave, these algorithms only suppress posts with those words because they don't like it.
Addicted to Heron. Explains the flapping bird.
Listening to a folk punk song that uses the word fuck to great effect on Spotify yesterday, wondering why the fuck the line 'If you fuck up I will still be your friend' reads 'If you f up'.
I just don't get it. Fuck is a valid, if vulgar, part of the common English lexicon. It serves a purpose.
Also folk punk is supposed to be rough. It’s gonna curse. It’s gonna have drugs. And it’s gonna ask you how we’re supposed to fucking live without being high all the damn time. Clean folk punk is just political theory harshly sang and accompanied with banjo
"My breakfast is straight out of the medicine cabinet..."
Yeah, that checks out.

Good thing I was protected from that last word.
Is this stupid trend of censoring words a USA thing? And why is it so popular? I'm legit wondering since I cannot understand.
It's a social media thing. Supposedly posts get deprioritized by the algorithm if they contain "family unfriendly" words like kill or drug references. No idea if it's actually true or just a myth, but it's why users edit out innocuous words in these screenshots.
I think the correct term is "advertiser unfriendly".
I wouldn't be surprised if that was true though.
Yup the real 1984 is all corpo-advertising driven.
Well, that and wannabe fascists.
Lots of social media now deprioritizes "advertiser unfriendly" content. Especially TikTok. So, the response to that is to self-censor so that you still reach full engagement. It's an arms race to keep swearing without the algorithms silencing you for doing so.
I'm not surprised T*kTok does that

Depends, actual censorship of words exist worldwide.
Pointless censorship however i have only seen in US and Japan, but both for very different types of content.

What is it? I want to be addicted to something! What could it be? As soon as I find out I'm going to immediately get addicted to it, no matter what.
They left "her", which changes the poor lad from a humble druggie to an obsessive creep.

Addicted to her ❤️
It's so romantic I want to be just like his nephew

My daughter once asked me, "Do rainbows stop the rain?"
She was three and, in my opinion, very insightful. These rainbows keep showing up right about the time the rain stops. A little too convenient to be a coincidence, right?
You better put her in hiding. She figured out BIG LEPRECHAUN's conspriacy.
IDK man, she might be on to something. Look at this rainbow. It's more like a rain shield...ain't no archer DPS this is tanks.
