THEY FUCKING GOT SALEM WHAT THE HELL. HES GONE MY FRIEND WTF
Tumblr staff was getting tired of endless tgirl and decided the largest unabashedly Black and transfeminist transmasc would be a perfect nostalgia snack. “See! We ban diversely, we ban the Blacks in addition to white trannies :)”
To be clear, Salem has also had a concerted harassment campaign against them which is likely the cause of this. It’s not something new or particularly unsurprising, it’s a documented white supremacist site doing white supremacy in its moderation and allowing white supremacists, transphobes, and transmisogynists (a mostly overlapping triple venn diagram) to utilize their site to harm the most marginalized among us over and over.
How long are you motherfuckers gonna keep letting this happen? As long as they are able to keep doing this arbitrarily to marginalized folks, especially historically Black people, transfemmes, sex workers, etc. At the whims of harassment campaigns, none of us will be safe. We will keep watching our friends disappear, we will keep watching medical, survival, etc. fundraisers die off, we will keep seeing this site become more fucking fascist as more marginalized folks get scattered to further and smaller corners of the internet again. If you can say or do something, put to fucking action your thoughts don’t just sit there anymore, fucking speak up about whats been happening!
Tumblr staff banned a Black artist without reason. Remember that they cannot be trusted.
We need to start sexualizing the janitor's jumpsuit as the butch equivalent of the maid's uniform
love when you take off the top part of the jumpsuit, and tie the arms around the waist. Bonus if she's wearing a tank top underneath
It is not nearly common enough knowledge that most Native tribes in the U.S. don't actually own all of the land within their reservation. There are millions of acres of reservation land that tribes don't legally own and they have no control over how that land is used. Like, there are a lot of different concepts tied in with the land back movement, but a major one is literally just getting reservation land back into tribal ownership.
“there’s an ai tool for that” okay ?? there’s probably an ed sheeran song for it too who gives a fuck
hey did ya'll know that ed sheeran is working on a series of 6 albums named after media player buttons and the first one released last year and the last one is to be released posthumously on the day that he dies
That doesn't sound right but I don't know enough about Ed Sheeran to prove otherwise
…huh
you have to keep blogging. there are lesbians who like your posts

As if the cacophony of AI/LLM discourse wasn't loud enough:
I'm so sorry to rain on every clickbait poster's parade, but the real way to tell whether writing is AI generated isn't the use of common punctuation, or basic writing techniques — it's whether or not the writer has a point of view. LLMs are great at mirroring human writing, so analysing whether writing is AI based on whether it uses specific punctuation types or common writing techniques, is pretty much useless. You don't accuse a person of being a roomba because they can move around indoors and use a vacuum. Instead, ask:
Does the summary of these words actually amount to anything?
Do I feel engaged by this?
Is there a sense of genuine connection here?
Does this writing ever disagree with me or cause friction between my perspective and the author's or the character's?
Does the sense of voice and style carry through across multiple paragraphs/pages?
Do I feel a connection here?
AI is great at mirroring style, but struggles to invent substance. Unfortunately people also sometimes struggle to invent substance, and the human brain naturally looks for meaning and patterns in everything it sees, so sometimes human writing can still look robotic to us or vice versa. But at least this technique keeps the focus on the goals of human art (connection and expression) rather than the goal of an LLM (imitation).
This answer is much less popular than "just look for em dashes and rule of threes", because it requires the person reading to be literate and able to think critically.... But I'll leave the dissertation on the possible relationship between the USA's abysmal education system, and the mass popularity of AI over there, for another post 😬
Anyway happy writing to all the storytellers out there, and remember: You don't write like AI. AI writes like you. The kinds of readers you actually want (ie. ones who are extracting meaning from your work and connecting with it) aren't going to be put off by grammar, punctuation and literary techniques.
I love gay hockey thank you gay hockey

As a former humanities student, I feel it is my duty to reblog this one.
A Hockey Love Story: Laura Stacey and Marie-Philip Poulin navigate marriage and career
and while we’re at it, fuck this idea that ONE ACCOUNT has to belong uniquely to ONE PERSON. This is the same thing these silicon valley fucks want; their vision of the future where everyone has a unique biometric ID code implanted in their body is the ultimate extension of Netflix’s “no password sharing” policy. You want to use your friend’s car? Sorry, you can’t, you need to be an authorized user. Your mother wants to let you look something up on her OED account? Too bad! That’s only for her! The concept of perfect market efficiency gives them greedy little money bag eyes.
If I pay money to have a newspaper sent to my house, they don’t charge me extra when I show it to my dad. This password sharing thing isn’t just a Netflix problem; don’t be surprised if it shows up elsewhere in other forms. Stamp this idea out now or we’ll be stuck with it.
This is by far the most popular post I have and I have to say: good, I’m right. Password sharing and ID verification are going to kill the internet. not oooh in 50 years. in like 5 more.
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He—wait. Why dost the Lord hath clippers.
The Lord sheareth me.
