I've been seeing a lot more of those images that censor even the mildest naughty word lately. What service is driving this? I'd assume TikTok but that is video so it doesn't explain the censored pictures.

Because a lot of social media sites pull the text from images via OCR and also check it for profanity, and profanity affects your algorithmic performance.

A lot of the ways people communicate online are basically appeasing the machine gods who dispense arbitratry but mysterious punishment about which we can only speculate.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

I said it before somewhere but it owns very much that someone apparently looked at medieval superstitions about speaking of ill events and thought "what if we built an omniscient machine to make it a real thing you have to do?"

I don't even know if any given site necessarily does that, but it seems like the sort of thing they could do any that idea is all that's necessary to elicit that sort of behaviour. It's amazing! Who knoweth the powers and will of the machine? It works in mysterious ways.

It looks like batman is upset because flash is dead or wounded. He asks Superman where he was. We see that superman had apparently stopped on his way to the fight because his super ears picked up the knee taps given by a man to his dog to indicate it is ok to eat the spilled food and superman entered the home and ate the spilled food himself (like a dog).

The panels are out of order then. The way it’s written it looks like Flash died, so it caused Superman to eat food off of a floor.

It's not even just "naughty" words. Last night I watched a video about maternity clothing from the 1400s to the 1800s that gave a trigger warning for miscarriage, but it was censored in both the subtitles (misca**iage) AND the audio by the poster. The pinned comment was an explanation that this was not because the poster thought the content should be censored, but because YouTube demonitises the subject.

The dad is having dinner with his daughter. His daughter apparently threw her dish on the floor. The father tries to make the dog come over and clean up the mess, instead Superman comes in and "helps".

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.
I thought the joke was that the spilled food was soup, and he's soup-er-man. upon closer inspection it doesn't seem like it's supposed to be soup.

It showed up on imgur as a webdp but, it's been pointed out to me that .wedps don't always display correctly. So I changed the extension to .gif

As far as why it wouldn't have displayec, I don't know. I copy/pasted the direct image link.
