Baby sphinx trying to be like mama and waylaying travelers, but all its riddles are completely non-sensical like the ones a 1st grader would tell

tl;dr: all "algorithmically" pushed stuff on a newsfeed is mostly ads. nothing that's really surprising form this vulture article, but it is dismal and makes me grateful for one website where you only see things from people you follow WITHOUT horrible short-form video content

What if every viral song, movie, meme, influencer, and celebrity drama in recent memory was the result of a stealth marketing campaign?

i think ao3 should have a feature like an anonymous kudos but instead of kudos its "i jorked it to completion" and you can leave as many of these as you want and obviously authors would opt-in to this feature on a per-fic basis but like. i want the stats, you know.

False Face Fawn 2nd in my Glass Animal Mask series!

The initial design had glass antlers but they looked too bulky and didn't make sense for a fawn to have grown adult antlers so I replaced them with blue Lily of the Valley flowers. I'm particularly happy with how the white flowers on her back looks like the white fawn spots :D

Owl is up next!

As always, the hours long process videos, HD Image, and PSD file will be DMed on Patreon.com/c/Yuumei

It’s all well and good if the CCOD finale wasn’t your thing but also I feel we are all forgetting something: this season was directly inspired by WWDITS. Ya know, the show that brought us “I drank the blood of some people and the people were on drugs and now I am a wizard.”? The one that had some good throughline emotional beats but was mostly Bit fuckin City? I mean Zac’s character was based on Zoolander!! Murph was a vampire who thinks he’s some sort of Batman!! THERE WAS A GHOUL HORSE NAMED GHORSE. Batchild swallowed a missile in the first episode! They wrote off multiple shit shows as “Banksy’s”!! If you wanted a serious season and got a silly one I get it. But you can’t pretend this was ever all that serious outside of Brennan’s signature capitalism and fascism sucks tropes. You can’t criticize something on criteria it never met (or really even intended to meet) in the first place.

what is the point of an organization like Amnesty International if they capitulate to the very hate groups they supposedly exist to work against?

Amnesty International removed their report, "A growing threat: the anti-rights movement in the UK," from the internet after "gender critical" transmisogynist hate groups and the likes of JK Rowling threatened the organization with defamation lawsuits

Hey folks, JK Rowling doesn't want you to read this, okay? Better share it around so people know not to read it.

love seeing revisionism in the wild “free the nipple never meant you can walk around topless every where that’s still sexual harassment it just meant for like breastfeeding and stuff”no it literally means you should be able to walk around topless anywhere because get this. breasts aren’t fucking sexual organs.

I remember when I was about 12, I watched a show on TLC that followed people as they got somewhat uncommon medical procedures.

There was one episode with a trans woman getting different gender-affirming operations, including breast implants. It showed the procedure, and (what I found so fascinating that it's stuck with me for decades), as soon as the doctor put the implant in, a censor blur popped up on the nipple.

And you just know there was a meeting between the TLC lawyers and the editors and producers of the show to discuss what the difference was between a "man nipple" (can be shown) and a "woman nipple" (no no must obscure, 'tis naughty). And they decided that as soon as the implant goes in and the nipple has more mass behind it, that's the moment when it becomes a woman's nipple and must be hidden to comply with TV rules.

But it's the same nipple. On the same person. I know what it looks like; I just saw it. But TV and obscenity rules are rules, and the rules say woman nipple = sexual and therefore explicit, but man nipple = neutral, just fine.

"Free the Nipple" was calling out arbitrary bullshit like that, because someone just existing with their body parts should not be considered obscene, and the double standard that men can be topless but women can't is so blatantly ridiculous. All nipples are just nipples. If you get turned on or bothered by them, that's on you.

I don't know I'm not done talking about it. It's insane that I can't just uninstall Edge or Copilot. That websites require my phone number to sign up. That people share their contacts to find their friends on social media.

I wouldn't use an adblocker if ads were just banners on the side funding a website I enjoy using and want to support. Ads pop up invasively and fill my whole screen, I misclick and get warped away to another page just for trying to read an article or get a recipe.

Every app shouldn't be like every other app. Instagram didn't need reels and a shop. TikTok doesn't need a store. Instagram doesn't need to be connected to Facebook. I don't want my apps to do everything, I want a hub for a specific thing, and I'll go to that place accordingly.

I love discord, but so much information gets lost to it. I don't want to join to view things. I want to lurk on forums. I want to be a user who can log in and join a conversation by replying to a thread, even if that conversation was two days ago. I know discord has threads, it's not the same. I don't want to have to verify my account with a phone number. I understand safety and digital concerns, but I'm concerned about information like that with leaks everywhere, even with password managers.

I shouldn't have to pay subscriptions to use services and get locked out of old versions. My old disk copy of photoshop should work. I should want to upgrade eventually because I like photoshop and supporting the business. Adobe is a whole other can of worms here.

Streaming is so splintered across everything. Shows release so fast. Things don't get physical releases. I can't stream a movie I own digitally to friends because the share-screen blocks it, even though I own two digital copies, even though I own a physical copy.

I have an iPod, and I had to install a third party OS to easily put my music on it without having to tangle with iTunes. Spotify bricked hardware I purchased because they were unwillingly to upkeep it. They don't pay their artists. iTunes isn't even iTunes anymore and Apple struggles to upkeep it.

My TV shows me ads on the home screen. My dad lost access to eBook he purchased because they were digital and got revoked by the company distributing them. Hitman 1-3 only runs online most of the time. Flash died and is staying alive because people love it and made efforts to keep it up.

I have to click "not now" and can't click "no". I don't just get emails, they want to text me to purchase things online too. My windows start search bar searches online, not just my computer. Everything is blindly called an app now. Everything wants me to upload to the cloud. These are good tools! But why am I forced to use them! Why am I not allowed to own or control them?

No more!!!!! I love my iPod with so much storage and FLAC files. I love having all my fics on my harddrive. I love having USBs and backups. I love running scripts to gut suck stuff out of my Windows computer I don't want that spies on me. I love having forums. I love sending letters. I love neocities and webpages and webrings. I will not be scanning QR codes. Please hand me a physical menu. If I didn't need a smartphone for work I'd get a "dumb" phone so fast. I want things to have buttons. I want to use a mouse. I want replaceable batteries. I want the right to repair. I grew up online and I won't forget how it was!

I've had this costume on my mind for some time now(colllege.) I wanted to make a costume inspired by my culture and I've always been obsessed with the Vejigante masks from PR. Here's my take on those classic designs.

Watching Bad Bunny/Benito's call for all of us to share the love of our culture and island inspired me in ways that took me back. I've always been proud of where my family is from so I'm glad I could share it via this design. I'm so grateful for the reminder.

I was thinking that this design also reminded me of a tiefling bard! Anyway enjoy my Vejigante Tiefling Bard, this design is near and dear to my heart!
