if your tls certificate's public key matches your server's private key and your domain name is included in the authority's signature's list of domain alternatives then your connection is VALID

in the future our DNA will included more embedded checksums so we can be pronounced valid quickly and easily with a simple skin swab

[garmbreak1]

this is blatant antichimerism

[argumate]

you are both valid

Not only are Asian and European immigrants viewed most positively, compared to other groups such as Latin American and Middle Eastern, but when a survey asked participants to describe immigrants in one word one of the top ten responses was “Hispanics/Mexicans”.

Unreliable narrators need to add something to the story. They aren’t an excuse for poor storytelling and inconsistencies.

[gracebeereblogs]

If you have an unreliable narrator, you should be doing twice as much work in your plotting! At every turn of the story, you need to know both what’s actually happening AND what your narrator thinks is happening. 

[emptymanuscript]

When you’re right, you’re right. And you’re right.

Not only does the author need to know what’s happening on both layers of story, they need to actually write in clues for the reader to telegraph the lower, “true,” layer of the story so the reader is capable of figuring it out if they choose to read closely. Without that double work, an unreliable narrator cannot perform its literary function.

It is the evidence of the truth, not the lie the narrator tells, that makes a narrator unreliable. Otherwise they are just a liar which the audience is incapable of catching due to the hobbling imposed by the medium. Which means the lie may as well be the truth, making it serve no function as a lie.
