What makes it “Legitimate Interest“?

Nothing. Having a toggle for "legitimate interest" is nonsense. The GDPR lists some exceptions to when you need to ask for permission, these are "legitimate interests". Things like remembering someones IP to keep track of bans is allowable without needing to ask for permission.

Of course advertising agencies promptly went to work trying to bend the language of GDPR so they can claim they are a legitimate interest and therefore exempt. It won't hold up in court.

The GDPR is surprisingly strict, and a LOT of the cookie popups you see in the wild are not at all compliant. To give an example: having your "accept" and "reject" buttons a different font size is explicitly not allowed.

So back in the day tumblr didn't have comments. It did allow you to add tags when reblogging, so people used that instead. Of course these days tumblr does have comments, but all the good comments still get put in the tags.

Tumblr is a special place.

I mean tofu by itself tastes pretty much of nothing. You need to like marinade and spice it before it tastes good.

Personally I also like making sure one side is fried until very crispy.

No fuck you I AM starting a cooking blog on your comment. You can save the leftovers from broccoli and cauliflower, stems and leaves, and make a lovely pesto. Simply cook with a bunch of garlic in a small amount of salted water. Add plenty of oil, and blend to a paste using an immersion blender. Tastes great on fusilli!

Protip: boil your broccoli in salted water. As long as you don't boil it to snot it'll be just as nutritious but taste a fair bit better. Poke it with a fork regularly to check done-ness. Should take around 6 minutes or so.

Right but... This isn't AI generated? The stitching is consistent, the text is all perfect, even the stuff too small to read. The textures on everything make sense. The background is detailed and consistent. Would an AI pic have a specific brand of hot press (like one might use to print on a hat) in the background with the right amount of being out of focus?

Yes AI slop is bad, but people calling literally every slightly unlikely picture AI is worse.
