Assassin's Creed 3 Song (Flashback)

Optimistic Anthony: “that’s 100 million views bro cmon” Realistic Ian: “yeah but that’s like 1 million people watching it 100 times.”

How do navigate the internet as a blind person genuinely curious lol

[@lightningkiki6090]

@@virgoundead Either you get someone to help you or a lot of stuff now have the setting to change to an alternative interface that blind people can use. I think it usually consists of the device reading out what the mouse is hovering over and then you just use normally. In the case of phones I think it usually reads out what you are pressing, so you navigate by holding your finger down and moving, and then double tap to activate. Sometimes these interfaces can be used to let blind ppl take selfies/pictures of people on their own, the device can say how many faces are on screen so the blind person can figure out if they are in frame. Your phone (assuming it's a smartphone) will probably have the option to change to such an interface. I have an Iphone and on there it's called "voiceover", but different phones will have different names.

Its so wholesome just how obvious it is that their friendship *elevates* both of them. You can see how much more confident and content they are suddenly rememdering old success and shared achievements. Friends thqt bring you to new heights are so rare and priceless

[@Lordx718]

I love how most people revisit their old stuff and cringe, but Anthony specially is like "Yeah, this shit slaps". Self love goals!

[@SethiKinsGaming]

that's because people's older stuff usually is lower quality, and because they know that they can do better now, they cringe. Anthony knows that this is high quality even for today's standards, so of course he'd compliment the hard work put into it by both him and everyone else involved.

[@Brandon2940]

Well I mean... it still DOES slap!

Anthony was exactly like that too. Their older reaction videos are just Anthony cringing at genuinely funny videos.

[@hillomunkkiseni]

This might be a good moment to admit that this song helped me so much when I was like 13 and having a very shitty life and was having so bad anxiety I was struggling to sleep, and what helped me was downloading this song onto my phone and then putting it on loop from headphones the whole night, helped me feel grounded and safe enough to fall asleep and lessened the risk of nightmares... :D now some 10 years later and it's still the only occasion when I have had a clear comfort-thing for a longer period of time (I have ADHD so usually things come and go quite fast but that comfort ritual lasted for several months) :D

It was super awkward but I put this song on as my brother was driving and it was like nothing had ever changed ❤️
