Educate yourselves

Companies in the 2000s: You wouldn't download a car! Digital copies are still stealing, even if the original copy remains with us.

Companies in the 2020s: That digital copy, which you have paid for, doesn't really belong to you. We're removing it from your library now.

Companies deleting media you've literally purchased is 1000x more realistically "stealing" than digital piracy, you cannot change my mind

300 years dead guy still being controversial I see

I got an anti-choice flyer in the mail and skimmed all their points “answering” questions like what if the pregnancy is a result of rape, what if the pregnancy is dangerous to the woman, etc. And of course their answers always ended up demanding that women keep the pregnancy and give birth. My question is, so do you expect women to just go about our lives accepting that they can change at any second on any man’s whim? Accepting that at any moment we could be forced to give up 9 months of our lives and go through the physical trauma of labour and birth, and deal with the way it permanently alters our bodies…just because a man rapes us? Are our bodies never our own? Are our bodies just potential incubators at all times? How unfathomably cruel. Women’s bodies are our own. How dare you expect us to accept a life where we could be forced into pregnancy and birth at any second. I simply don’t have words for how evil and sadistic that is.

Kanske är gamla nyheter men fick precis veta att de som håller i astrid lindgrens insta konto anlitade en studio som använder AI för att "animera" och asså fan trodde vi hade mer respekt för Astrid än att hennes offeciella konto skulle lägga up AI gerjer baserat på hennes arbete.

Själv blir jag jävligt arg och ledsen på det här.

Put an assumption in my ask. I’ll confirm or dispute it. I’m not gonna be mean or anything, I’m just very interested.

looking it up, apparently this was an artist who made signs like this to parody the actual city council's signage, just told apart by his logo in the corner, "christchurch city confusion", and they had locals rly confused for a bit. my favorite is this one!

If I ever post complete gibberish, know that I've been framed by this menace

He learned to jump onto the laptop table, and now it's all he ever wants to do. Yesterday, Zhab chewed off an earbud and hid it somewhere while I was out of the room. He also tried to duckduckgo the following: "4444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444333aad"

I don't speak rat so idk

so today a public health official guy came into my class to give a lecture on disaster awareness and he was talking about house fires and mentioned that the reason people most likely die during a house fire is because they refuse to leave their pet inside or they go back to get their pet. and right when he said this my friend immediately turned his head and looked at me and in that moment I had the most complete and genuine acceptance take over my body. I would 100% in front of my family and Jesus himself walk straight back into some raging inferno that was once my house to go get my fat cat. I nodded back

the best part of this post is reading all the tags from animal people who would also go back to save their pets. like no hesitation. walk backwards from heaven straight back into hell. someone even said they would go back for their fish. amazing

If you are a person who would walk into a blazing inferno for your animal, and your pet has free movement around the house, here’s a training exercise that could help save you both:

1) Set off your smoke alarm or play the sound on your phone (if your home has no smoke alarms, pease get some!)

2) stand BY THE FRONT DOOR to hand out treats

Do this a couple times and then keep it up NO EXCEPTIONS. Accidentally set the alarm off cooking? Treats by the door. Smoke alarm sound on TV? Treats by the door. Changing your smoke alarm batteries twice a year like you’re supposed to? Give them a test run and your pets get treats by the door.

Most dogs and cats will clue in VERY quickly that hearing that specific sound means go to the front door and wait for treats.

If there’s an emergency and even if you leave by another way, you will still know the most likely place your pet(s) is and can direct first responders to help.

You can also do this for any other kind of emergency alarm. My friend had both her cats trained to go to the front door for a tsunami siren.
