@2398rain - Tumblr Blog

made a new tumblr bc im tired of this old one, so ill be using @ TroyMegaforce from now on yey yey

not gonna delete this account bc ive got lots of old art linked to it but im not gonna use it either

the fact of the matter is that hoeru is able to be manipulated by kuon and is willing to stay by him bc he has always wanted to be like kuon but he also has some guilt around the events of them getting separated. after losing things over and over he built up walls and refused to let people get close, and so he sticks to kuon even if he's different bc it's all he knows. kuon is like a tether, bc hoeru doesn't value himself and does feel empty but he needs something to keep him going even if it's something that will hurt him in the end.

hoeru likes to help people but he chooses to act like he doesn't. he wasn't given the room to grow like other people and experienced things that other people wouldn't understand. hoeru can survive but he's so detached and cannot find his footing so it is easy to believe kuon's words. it's true that he doesn't have a wish, and it's true that hoeru feels cheap but he cares about people and really did like having friends, but when someone tells you who you are and they're all you have left you tend to believe them. hoeru may be empty in a way, but he's capable of becoming his own person and standing on his own. it's just going to take time.

i also want to note that in the preview hoeru says upfront that getting close to people is scary for him, likely bc he's lost so much of what he cared about and is afraid to lose his friends. i feel like the rivalry aspect makes it easier for hoeru to be manipulated into turning on the others. i mean they'll eventually turn on you, so what is the point? but then again he liked how it felt to have friends.

Facebook PSA

Hey all, a little Social Media PSA if you have the Facebook App on your phone.

With the last update, Facebook began tracking something called ‘off-Facebook Activity’ which keeps up with all apps and browsing you do off of Facebook and collects that information with the purpose of targeting ads… which means they’re selling it to ad agencies. This includes access to any banking apps on your phone and your spending habits.

Not only is this a major breech of privacy that Facebook didn’t have to tell us about when they updated the app, it’s, of course, automatically turned on.

To turn it off, go into your Facebook app, pull up the menu from the main screen [the button with the three horizontal lines] scroll down to security and privacy, find ‘Off-Facebook Activity’ and hit the button that lets you manage your history to see all the apps it’s been collecting from. From there, you can clear the information it’s already collected, and there will be a button regarding ‘Future activity’ where you can turn the ‘feature’ off, at which point Facebook with give you an ‘ARE YOU SURE YOU DON’T WANT US COLLECTING YOUR INFORMATION TO SELL YOU THINGS???’ screen. Yes, yes you are sure. Because this is disgusting.

Facebook made this super hard to find, so I’ve written up instructions for how I got through it (on my app - I don’t know if there are other versions where it’s different):

From Facebook, go to the Menu by clicking on the three horizontal lines on the top right of the screen.

Scroll down to the bottom and select the Settings & Privacy drop-down menu.

Then select Settings (the first option under the drop-down).

This will take you to a screen showing multiple headers with lists of links under them

Scroll down to Your Facebook Information and select Off-Facebook Activity.

The next page has a short explanation of Off-Facebook Activity. Click Manage Your Off-Facebook Activity after the What You Can Do header.

This will take you to a screen with an option to Clear History (which I recommend). To actually turn off this feature, you will have to click the three dots at the top right of the screen and select the Manage Future Activity option that pops up.

This will take you to a page explaining in more detail what they’re doing. Select the Manage Future Activity at the bottom of the page.

THEN you can finally select the toggle to turn off Future Off-Facebook Activity.

If it’s glowing blue with the circle on the right side, it’s active, and if it’s gray with the circle on the left side, it’s off.

Pagoda Dog Bed

The listing calls it a Asian Pagoda Dog Bed but honestly it looks more like a pavilion?! I suppose it’s supposed to be an imitation of a Chinese canopy bed? But the roof is all wrong with upturned eaves for outdoor rain? Unless this doggie bed is supposed to be placed in the backyard lols
