STICKY POST; Welcome to my blog!

Hi! I've finally decided to put up a sticky post to help all users, but especially mobile users, navigate things more easily.

But first: Blog guidelines!

WCIFs are CLOSED

TS4CC commissions are CLOSED

Anon is OFF

Askbox is OPEN

Hateful asks will be ignored and deleted

THIS IS A MATURE BLOG and there will be MATURE THEMES!! Navigate with caution! Potentially "spicy" things will be tagged as "#sims spice" and anything else will be "spice." I also try to tag surreal/unreal and other common triggers.

I work 40+ hours a week and I am recovering from a major surgery; if I don't get to you straight away, I promise, I am not ignoring you. I am just a very tired woman nearing middle age and I'm doing my best.

The children loved spending their afternoons playing outside at Grandfather's bookstore while he listened to the radio. "The sky over Wadi el-Shams is turning orange, a sandstorm is brewing. Stay indoors and close the windows", the radio voice said. "Kids, let's go inside. It's about to get pretty harsh out here!"

controversial opinion but can white people just like. stop?

as a white person I am asking my fellow white people to just fucking s t o p.

that's it. that's the sentence. just stop. stop and just think for like five to ten seconds. think about shit before it exits your mouth.

everyone says stupid shit sometimes. it's a human trait. but us white folk have all stewed in our false sense of superiority for way, way, WAY too long.

you are fucking exhausting and I AM ONE OF YOU.

Can everyone who makes video content do a Deaf bitch a favor? Watch your shit with the captions on and the sound off, and then do another round of editing to fix things including but not limited to:

Captions cover the spot on the screen you put the information I need

The dialogue is captioned but not the song you have playing that the dialogue is responding to

You only captioned the person on the screen, not the person off screen who is also talking

No captioning of critical sound effects (alarms, bells, dogs barking, etc)

Speakers are not labelled at moments where it is not clear on the screen who is talking.

Captions cover the spot on the screen that you put the information I need!

Other d/Deaf people welcome to add.

This post brought to you by the fifth video tutorial I could not follow because the bad, auto-generated captions covered what I was trying to watch today.

@earlgreycustard reblogged a post I had rb'd and added the tag:

"#the people long for an unmonopolized community"

and honestly like

if I were to try and sum up this whole discourse about paywalls, fair compensation for artists vs entitled grifters, how it all affects communities online/offline, etc... it would be that.

We long for an unmonopolized community.

I feel like I need to share this because idk if Europeans are familiar with the presence of Aldi in the US, but at least especially in my area they’ve been growing a lot recently. Like Aldi bought out some local failing grocery chains where I live (Louisiana) and have opened Aldis in all these somewhat rural communities and small towns, which for the record I’m fine with

But as a result of this they are advertising a lot more in my area and also in many cases, the people in these areas have never been confronted with Aldi or any European grocery store. So the ads that Aldi is pushing out to its new US customer base feature a cowboy shopping at Aldi who is explaining to new Aldi customers how Aldi works. Like this cowboy is explaining you gotta put a quarter in the shopping cart and why there are very little name brands. A cowboy is how they want to reach their American customer base. They gave us a cowboy
