in case you haven't thought about switching to firefox yet, here's an extension that will...

Notify you if a website you're on has employees that are on strike

Bypass paywalls for major news outlets like the New York Times

Change the browser theme based on the time of day

Directly install third party non-extension scripts

Save individual browser sessions to be reopened at any time

Use the TV format of YouTube in-browser

Make all chrome extensions compatible with Firefox

Turn YouTube dislikes back on

Fix Twitter and make it way less fucked up

Automatically remove trackers from URLs

And many more!

Feel free to add any other firefox extensions you think are slept on.

#I'm installing a bunch of these #thank you #firefox extension #my only complaint is that a lot of websites now only work in chrome #like my therapy telehealth portal #it's really fucking obnoxious

Please Understand That Queerness Is Not Inherently Virtuous.

much like having brown hair, or being above 5 feet tall, or being left handed, it is a singular amoral trait about you.

facing persecution against my gender identity is not a choice i made because i'm a good person, it is a consequence of the unjust pieces of the society i was born into.

to meaningfully contribute to discourse, especially one involving societal issues, you must draw on experience and knowledge, and incorporate empathy and critical thinking into your conclusion. please do not forget this.

look, guys, this may seem ironic coming from a person with Verbose Disease, but I'm about to tell you the secret to winning social media: shutting the fuck up. you have a controversial discourse opinion? shut the fuck up and no one will know. can't participate in a boycott for various reasons? shut the fuck up and no one will know. you think or do something Problematic that has no bearing on anyone but yourself? shut the fuck up and no one will know. you haven't been keeping up on a pressing social issue? shut the fuck up and no one will know. your mind is a wonderful place where you can have all the bad takes in the world and they're all perfectly insulated from everyone and everything unless you try to excise them on a grand scale. you can take the mental L all by yourself without using a public platform as a confession booth and face zero repercussions and it'll be just fine. open up a damn diary and explain yourself there.

Today I'm thinking about how often conversations around adults in fandom are centered on an "adults can still engage in fandom as long as they know this isn't inherently their space and act accordingly" axis as though fandom wasn't built and maintained by adults for adults first. As though adults didn't build the house and let the kids play in the yard because there was no reason to be selfish and keep it to themselves and also it made them happy to see the kids having fun.

Like, Twitter is an adult website for adults. There's no Twitter KIDZ!! child-friendly, age-segregated, content-regulated version of Twitter that's safe for kids and there never will be, because advertisers can't harvest kids' private information and make money off of them. And I am genuinely sorry the Internet has evolved this way. But Twitter is an adult website for adults and adults use it to post adult ideas and pictures and if they put their horny anime fanart in the main tags....they are actually allowed to do that. It might be impolite, but as long as it doesn't violate the TOS, there's no rules against it on the basis that "a child might see it" because Twitter is not a child's website. Tumblr is not a child's website. Ao3 is not a child's website. If you are a teen using these sites for your fandom experience, you have to realize these sites were not made for you. They allow for you: when an Ao3 fic is tagged correctly, it does an age check. When twitter users have private NSFW profiles or Tumblr users establish alternate searchable fandom tags, we are allowing for your presence and self-censoring. But we're not obligated to, because these are adult websites for adults, and if you are going to use them, you have to be aware of that.

hey. Please link the pillow? 😢

i am going to use an amazon affiliate link but if you would rather look it up elsewhere, i support you. if you can find it cheaper literally anywhere, get that one. if you can find a bootleg please tell me because i looked for months before giving in and buying this fucking pillow. if you think you can get away with making your own out of foam, go for it. if your work gives you an HSA/FSA you can buy it with that, but you cannot get health insurance to reimburse you for it (i checked). i had to buy this fucking pillow with a goddamn payment plan. a pillow payment plan. nothing will make you question your life choices like needing a payment plan for a fucking pillow.

anyway it's called the medcline.

i have horrible acid reflux but ended up basically never using my bed wedge when i finally got one because trying to side sleep on a cheapo wedge is a nightmare. on multiple occasions i have slept so wrong i couldn't turn my neck for days. one time i fucked up my shoulder so bad i couldn't sleep on that side for a week. i have no idea how i pulled that off but clearly i have invented some advanced sleep failure techniques. as near as i can tell my sleeping body defaults to the family guy death pose, which is not ergonomic. so i bought the goddamn armhole pillow and figured if it didn't work i'd return it.

my side of the bed is a fortress now. when i pull the duvet up it looks like ferris bueller is trying to convince someone he's sick. the big curling body pillow looks like i killed clippy to sleep inside his corpse. when i am getting ready for bed it looks like i'm plugging myself into some kind of pod. it's so fucking dumb. i am sleeping great and no longer falling asleep to the taste of bile and waking up with a fucked up neck. my hips don't hurt. i can't return it. i can't go back to the before times. i'm so mad about it.
