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.

The AI video "memes" making the rounds lately like the Mario one and now the cat video genuinely confuse me. Like, shitty AI memes are nothing new but these "videos" feel... insanely basic? Like even putting aside yhe fact theyre AI, there just isnt any real jokes of any value, and yet people are eating this shit up and doing redrawd n shit like this is somehow fresh and new

Like its not even good from a "haha! Lol random!" absurdist pov. The mario one is basically a slideshow of jokes youd see like 10 years ago and the cat one honestly seems devoid of any actual joke at all.

Why tf are people finding this shit funny.

If you're referring to the cat one where the muscular cat saves his kid from a shark or whatever, I feel like I was going insane watching it. Like who is this for?? It's not funny, it's not particularly wholesome or cute, it's all so generic... and then each image had wildly inconsistent details bc of course it did, I feel like the target market for all this shit is Facebook Grandmas
