I'm a Vietnamese cis woman born and currently living in the U.S. You may know me from Sandwich, from Twitter or Mastodon (same username), or on Twitch as Sharkaeopteryx. I do not have a Discord or Bluesky account.

Ask me about language learning/teaching, cooking/eating food, late diagnosis ADHD, and volunteer small business mentoring. Or don't, I'm not the boss of you.


I think people deserve to be young, make mistakes, and grow without being held to standards they don't know about yet and are still learning. So, if you are under 22, please don't try to strike up a friendship or get involved in discussions on my posts.


Please don't automatically assume I follow/know/co-sign someone just because I reposted something from them—sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Also, if you think being removed as a follower when we're not mutuals is a cardinal sin, please do not follow me.

in the recent wayneradiotv stream of "a difficult game about climbing", the gang starts playing around with google's "people also ask" feature and I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO STOP THINKING ABOUT IT.

"When was the first human being born on earth?", "What will humans evolve into?", "How did humans get on earth?"

"How did the first human baby survive?"

its SO FREAKING STUPID AND FUNNY..... the perfect combination of the insanity of yahoo answers and the inanity of algorithmic content. the way that it actually just parses answers from websites and transforms those into a corresponding question, even if that means the question is phrased in a way NO HUMAN would ever ask it.

it's literally just generating trivia questions!!!

"What animal are scientists trying to bring back?"

"Are dogs toes or feet?"

yesss it's such a funny mess. i sometimes try to play something like the wikipedia game where i try to start at one topic and keep clicking until i arrive at a particular different topic, makes you strategize on which options to pick
