straight up, i think we need to start unironically using the term megacorporation
amazon, disney, pepsi, pretty much any company that owns enough subsidiaries that you’re probably touching five of their products at any one time without realizing unless you know very well where everything you buy comes from
that’s a megacorporation
and it’s bad, todd
WE LIVE IN AN OLIGOPOLIC KLEPTOPLUTOCRACY AND NOBODY SEEMS TO CARE
Sigmund Freud: All men secretly REALLY REALLY want to have sex with their mothers
It’s the Oedipus Complex
Oedipus: (Who literally gouged his own eyes out and killed himself when he found out he accidentally had sex with his mother) I’m sorry it’s the WHAT complex
one of my favourite linguistic phenomena/in-jokes is spanish potato chips being “ham-flavored, probably”
y’see because spain and portugal are so close, labels in stuff like food, shampoo, etc often come in portuguese as well as spanish
this brand of chips, Lay’s, displays the flavor in spanish and portuguese, resulting in ham-flavored chips looking like this:
with “jamón” being spanish and “presunto” being portuguese
however, “presunto” is also a spanish adjective, meaning “presumed” (or suspected)
so you have this in-joke going where spanish chips taste like ham, presumably

This even happens to me from time to time because over the course of running this blog, I went through thousands and thousands of submissions and I apparently do not remember all of them so I’ll see some older submission on my dash and get confused or worried for a good few seconds until I see my icon and realize, ah, that’s just me, phew.
@one-time-i-dreamt so, you’re telling us that the person who RUNS the freaky dream blog forgets to read the user name?!? I feel better now
The fact that one-time-i-dreamt is scared of her own posts is weirdly reassuring
