I love it so much when people tag reblogs with character names, either because the post reminded them of a character, or the post is something that they think the character would say. I really love it when people get super into characters they like, it's wholesome and fun and awesome
reminder that ao3 does not recommend typing directly onto their site. the site doesnât automatically save works for you. if the site crashes, if your wifi gets disconnected, if you lose power, if thereâs a glitch, you risk losing everything youâve typed down. type your work elsewhere. safe your work elsewhere. then copy and paste it onto ao3
favorite kind of teeth? I am fond of leopard seal teeth personally
oooh a fine choice!!!
i actually really like horse teeth :) they're so odd and uncanny, and im a huge fan of their ridiculous tiny canine teeth. also love a good diastema :)
boars, dogs and shrews also have really good teeth
Have you considered opossum teeth? They have the most teeth of any terrestrial North American mammal and I feel they deserve teeth appreciation for that
I also love their cute little pink nose. And those little black round ears. And how their face is white and they have SO MANY whiskers. Whiskers everywhere. Opossums are just my fave animal.
Hey. If people aren't aware, Microsoft admitted they know who you and where you are at all times and will give your info to the police.
They have a Global Device Identifier (GDID) Tracker that functions as a fingerprint for your PC that can surpass VPNs, proxy servers and countries. Although it can't survive a clean reinstall of Windows (it can survive updates), because Microsoft forces you to go to the internet and log in into a Microsoft account, they will be able to get to you.
Microsoft kept it secret and it was only found out when the FBI tracked a hacker thanks to the information Microsoft gave them.
You should be paying attention to this, and possibly consider moving away from Windows. If a government, especially the US government, doesn't like you for some reason, this could be seriously concerning.
This article specifically notes:
For journalism, activism, or domestic abuse situations, skip Windows and use Linux routed through Tor instead of a commercial VPN. A GDID doesnât care which VPN you use, only that itâs still the same Windows installation.
GDID is the persistent Windows ID that helped FBI trace a Scattered Spider hacker despite VPNs. Here's how it works and how to limit it.
Other important quotes:
What has researchers uneasy is everything else the case reveals. Costin Raiu, a well-known malware researcher, asked on the Three Buddy Problem podcast how much of this exists on other platforms, and whether it is linked more permanently to hardware. Matthew Hickey, another security researcher, called Windows âsurveillance softwareâ.
Two things back that up:
Thereâs no consent screen. A GDID gets assigned when you sign into a Microsoft Account. Appleâs advertising identifier needs an App Tracking Transparency prompt and a visible reset; Androidâs works the same way. GDID has neither, and a Windows reinstall only gets you a new number Microsoft can still get back to the same account.
Then thereâs activation. Massgrave, the group behind Microsoft Activation Scripts, notes that Windows setup sends hardware info to Microsoft and gets identifiers back, the same tokens later used for Store access and licensing: âItâs impossible to prevent Windows from getting a GDID without breaking activation and UWP app[s].â Anyone who lost a license after swapping a motherboard has already met a smaller version of this.
Here's the complaint filed to the court, the primary source for the case mentioned in the article. You can find mentions of GDID on page 30 of the document or 34 of the PDF.
You can get and use windows 11 without logging in with a microsoft account, as of five days ago. I am a local user on my computer. Don't ask me how to do it, because my computer repair guy did it when he reinstalled windows, but there are tutorials out there. Refuse to connect to internet until you're set up and can use the computer freely.
Refusing to connect to the internet doesn't help. You have to open a Command Prompt (Shift+F10) and typing start ms-cxh:localonly (and pressing enter) during installation when you get to the sign in/create stupid ms account screen
For comprehensive deets, tomshardware explains
Maintain only a local account on your Windows 11 PC.
Unless there's really really specific reasons to subject yourself to windows, please consider installing linux mint instead.
personally i do not prefer when stories engaging with complicated topics attempt to make themselves good educational resources on said complicated topics
and i understand that sometimes it's a very thin line between giving a realistic depiction of a serious topic and ending up in after-school special mode, but i also notice that no one is doing this when a character gets the flu (which kills many people every year) and PERSONALLY i don't love the patterns i'm vaguely sensing about which experiences can be depicted normally and which experiences must always be a learning opportunity
last night I had the experience of "referencing a tumblr post that you think is widely known but turns out to not be as widely known as you thought it was" last night and it was this post. whatever. go my scallops
Also, it's Tumblr. If I try to tell anyone about your knock-off Wish-quality sex toy thereâs going to be a horde of Autistic lesbians doing a power point presentation in the notes about safe sex toy material and correct battery storage.
Which I am 100% down for, but it will not get you any sales.
I was trying to figure out if you were someone important on a other platform, because there's no way in hell anyone actually thinks you can be classified as "Influencer" if you have a big Tumblr blog.
And then also think advertising to this mob would be a good idea
There are actually lots of people who sell stuff successfully on here, usually drop ship stuff.
Theyâre just not disclosing it as ads, which they are supposed to do, and instead it's marketed in a very Tumblr-esque way which can be summed up as âomg guys look how CUTE this isâ followed by a different account underneath going âomg found it!!â and it links to a drop ship site with the item(s).
And the link usually has an affiliate tracker in it, which you may or may not be able to spot unless youâre familiar with them, which is also something you are legally supposed to disclose.
I used to get a lot of offers from around 2016-2020 to sell âmoon lampsâ on here, yâknow those orb lights that look like a moon? Yeah. I was offered a higher kickback to make it look like I wasnt posting an add because these sellers know Tumblrites donât like ads.
They wanted it to look as organic and hyped up as possible and then Iâd just so happen to be like âomg you guys it's on saleâ and post a link. Which is skeevy as shit and also illegal af in the US.
Itâs like the insta/tiktok girlies saying âlink in bioâ to get around saying âhereâs a product I make money on if you buy itâ because they want to sound like your friend because people are more likely to impulse buy stuff if a âfriendâ is recommending something.
Theyâre also trusting that everyone knows âlink in bioâ means âaffiliate linkâ which is technically not enough of a disclosure but whatever.
This is why I tag all my own book promos with âaffiliate linksâ because depending on which storefront you buy Hunger Pangs from, I may get a kickback from the vender which I do to help mediate the fees I lose from distribution. Itâs not muchâliteral pennies in some casesâbut Iâm still legally required to state it.
Itâs also why when I do post products I use or like, I make a point of letting people know Iâm not an affiliate and not sponsored because despite the legal ramifications these people are flirting with by not disclosing their affiliate status, I want to be fully transparent with my followers when it comes to me trying to sell them things.
Yâall keep my lights on by reading my work and through my ko-fi and patreon. I am not about to risk that trust for the sake of some shitty vibrator sales from a sketch-ass drop shipper who wants me to pretend Iâm not selling you things.
So, yeah. People do successfully sell stuff on here. A lot of us small indie creators sell our own work all the time.
But there are also drop-ship sellers on here who get enough of a kick-back from affiliate links to make selling cutesy kitsch stuff worth their time on here. Theyâre just making sure you donât know youâre being marketed to.
Throwback to when I openly talked about this and got blocked by several huge âmemeâ blogs that were actually drop shippers who didnât like me lifting up the rock and exposing how they hide their ads in plain sight lol
i was in a communal all-gender restroom today and as i was washing my hands a middle-aged man came out of one of the stalls, started to make for the door, clocked me standing at the sinks, and changed course to wash his hands with a real hangdog look on his face
Okej sĂ„ nu hotas aktivister med utvisning tydligen. Ăven om de inte ens misstĂ€nks för brott.
Enligt artikeln försökte de Ă€ven fĂ„ honom att spela in ett samtal med dem utan att ge honom advokat och försökte fĂ„ honom att tro att han inte behövde det. Sa att han âinte behövde det om han inte hade nĂ„gonting att döljaâ. NĂ€r han vĂ€grade ringde de en överordnad och sa till dem (enligt aktivisten) âhan vet att han har rĂ€tt till advokatâ.
Jag rekommenderar starkt att lÀsa hela artikeln men hÀr Àr nÄgra delar som jag tyckte var intressanta:
NÀr David undrade vad det handlade om fick han till slut höra att han inte var misstÀnkt för nÄgot brott, men ÀndÄ var frihetsberövad, berÀttar han.
Anledningen till att han fördes bort, fick han veta, var att han skulle tas med till samtal om sin rĂ€tt att vistas i Sverige. Polisen stĂ€llde frĂ„gor om hans vistelse i Sverige, boende, jobb â och hans aktivism. Först efter tvĂ„ timmar slĂ€pptes han.
David, 30, har bott i Sverige sedan i januari 2019, dĂ„ han började pĂ„ universitetet i Lund som doktorand. Han Ă€r tysk och ungersk medborgare, och Ă€r dĂ€rmed EU-medborgare â det ger honom uppehĂ„llsrĂ€tt sĂ„ lĂ€nge som han studerar eller arbetar och kan försörja sig sjĂ€lv. Om man, som han gjort, har bott i Sverige i över fem Ă„r sĂ„ fĂ„r man permanent uppehĂ„llsrĂ€tt. Efter doktorsavhandlingen har David blivit anstĂ€lld som forskningsingenjör, och köpt en bostadsrĂ€tt.
â Du Ă€r efterlyst, sade polisen till mig, och ringde till kollegor och sa: âJag har en som Ă€r intressant för er â David, miljökillenâ.
â Jag berĂ€ttar för dem att jag Ă€r EU-medborgare och har jobbat i Sverige i över fem Ă„r, och att jag dĂ€rför har permanent uppehĂ„llsrĂ€tt. Det kommenterade de med att, âJo, men den rĂ€tten kan ju Ă„terkallasâ.
GrĂ€nspoliserna uppger att han inte Ă€r misstĂ€nkt för nĂ„got, enligt David Alcer, men för honom Ă€ndĂ„ med sig till grĂ€nspolisstationen vid Ăresundsbron, dĂ€r han blir inlĂ„st i ett litet rum. Han ber om att fĂ„ ha sin advokat nĂ€rvarande, beskriver han, men nekas.
â Det kĂ€ndes inte rĂ€ttssĂ€kert att varken ha advokat eller inspelning, dessutom i en situation dĂ€r jag tagits av polisen utan anledning. Men de nekade Ă€ven till det.
NÀr han vÀgrar svara pÄ frÄgorna utan sin advokat, gÄr en av poliserna ut ur förhörsrummet och ringer till en överordnad, berÀttar David.
â Jag hör hur hon sĂ€ger till sin chef: âHan vet att han har rĂ€tt till advokatâ. Det var intressant att hon indirekt bekrĂ€ftade det, trots att hon hĂ€vdat motsatsen.
I en ny FN-rapport uppmanas vÀrldens stater att skydda mÀnniskors rÀtt att försvara mÀnskliga rÀttigheter, som starkt hotas av klimatkrisen.
I mars fick Sverige besök av FN:s speciella rapportör för miljöförsvarare under à rhuskonventionen, som kritiserar Sverige för en ökad repression mot klimataktivister.
