weather app got to stop lying to me about rain

[vintageandroid]

i made a post like this before but I can't find it now. so. I'll just redo it.

What's the first "big news story" you remember from when you were a kid?

It's something I love to ask mixed-aged groups sometimes because I think it's really interesting to see the responses. I've gotten answers from the Olympics of [whatever year] to Watergate to more recent stuff from my niblings.

My first news thing I remember is the OJ Simpson trial. I vaguely remember watching the news with my grandparents before that, but that's the first story I remember, in part because my second grade teacher had us go play so she could watch the verdict 😂

[absolutelynotclassicusernam-blog]

I remember walking down the street and seeing a sign protesting George W. Bush’s war on Iraq, so I think that.

[deltaomicronfive]

I know exactly who needs to hear this but you need to talk to black people offline. You need to talk to black people who are nothing like you AND! You need to purposefully expose yourself to minorities you disagree with, not as the best of friends but so you can handle the fact that they exist and that its still not your fucking right to try to control them.

KICK THE CAN!

Let’s play the biggest game of kick the can on the internet.

To kick the can, reblog it. I wanna see how long this can go on for.

[visibun]

the oldest reblogs for this post that i can find are from january 2nd of 2013. this can has been getting kicked around tumblr for almost 13½ years now

[drtanner]

And yet somehow this is my first time kicking it!

[squire-reblogs]

Mine as well.

Well, you miss 100 % of the cans you don’t kick…

I know everyone headcanons Shane as like, this pure and clean player who would never ever chirp anyone on the ice but I think that's shortsighted and unlikely of the guy who's life ambition is to be the best who ever played the game. why on earth would he leave a viable strategy on the table?

nah, I think Shane could be a devastating chirper. he's a smart analytical player, right? why wouldn't he weaponize that? throw a disturbingly accurate analysis of your opponent's play at them in the middle of the game, the kind of analysis that's so creepily accurate and detailed that you're wondering if this guy has your house bugged, and include some outright fucking lies about how he needs to work on X thing that's clearly the thing he takes the most pride in.

you're telling me if the guy universally acknowledged as probably the best in the league tells you this thing youve been working on since you were a preteen is average at best and here's how to fix it (follows up with a bunch of bullshit that ain't fixing nothing) isn't gonna get in your head? let Shane terrorize his enemies for his own amusement and for the hockey advantage!

[fookinstevienicks]

exactlyyyyy EXACTLYYYYY you get me. imagine facing off with the best to ever do it and he's like "you just don't have the skeleton to do what you're trying to do. your femurs aren't long enough" like? I would be blue screened for the next ten business days tfym my FEMURS--

[fookinstevienicks]

bc shane knows these mfers can't read an analog clock! ilya is a ragebaiter but shane is a psychological terrorist!

[fookinstevienicks]

bringing this back to add that it's critical that literally no one realizes what he's doing. he's Shane Golden Boy Hollander, he would never psychologically terrorize anyone. he makes sure to mix in truly helpful advice with absolute bullshit, so that when one thing works and another doesn't, well, then that's clearly user error. and no one is going to admit that they couldn't follow Shane Hollander's advice.

there's a whole Emperor's New Clothes situation where hockey players are repeating Shane's bullshit advice to each other and all pretending it's great because everyone else said this for sure works! absolutely miraculous!

Ilya doesn't find out until they're playing on the same team because like hell is Shane letting Ilya have that kind of competitive advantage, and Shane never weaponized it against Ilya or any of his teammates because Ilya is good enough to recognize the bullshit and also turn around and do the same thing

and God HELP the metros when they start getting their play picked apart mid-game with a decade of up close and personal knowledge backing it up

the dutch bike helmet discourse is still so funny. scores of indignant dutch people going on about how they dont need to wear helmets because everybody is used to bike based stuff and knows how to handle themselves, periodically interjected by people who work in emergency rooms in the netherlands talking about how many cases of bike fall related head trauma they see regularly.

[trans-asajjventress]

dutch person: unlike you stupid americans, we have ample bike infrastructure and everybody knows how to navigate bike lanes

dutch ER worker: half of the people i treat are in the ER because they cracked their head on the pavement. my job would be easier if our country wore helmets.

i was training a young person at work, and she referred to sexual assault as "SA" out loud, and i immediately was like, "no, it's sexual assault, call it what it is," bc idgaf if the algorithm overlords have taught y'all that you should fear direct language, how tf do any of you expect to ever address real issues with any amount of seriousness if you can't even say the words? imagine an advocate looking a sexual assault survivor in the eyes and asking "did he grape you?" it's absolutely fucking absurd, but these young interns and new hires are coming into an environment where we deal with survivors of all different kinds of abuse, and they're coming with the mindset that the words are as bad as the actions, and that makes them shitty at the job and look juvenile af

i HATE self-censorship for a lot of reasons, but being in crisis work makes it even more frustrating. who are you censoring for? like i am being so fr, WHO are you censoring for? have you even thought it through? people who have been raped know that they have been raped. if someone attempts suicide or is grieving someone who did, saying "sewer slide" isn't going to protect them from any of the feelings. a murder victim's family isn't going to feel better bc you said "unalived" instead of murdered. if anything, it's just extremely invalidating and othering. it's saying "what happened to you is so bad that i won't even say the word," which is NOT trauma-informed care. you are not protecting survivors/victims when you self-censor. the ONLY things you protect when you self-censor are the puritanical ideologies that are being encouraged by rich fascists who want your money and obedience

say the fucking words, guys. just say the goddamn words before i go insane!!!

im so sorry i never participated in the reblog game you tagged me in i love you very much im just so tired

The Amnesty International report that JK Rowling is trying to censor through legal threats.

It can also be found on Google Drive here and on Bluesky here.

[cbarc]

Please save and share this info where possible. This report has since been removed by Amnesty International due to legal threats of libel from JK Rowling. This information is no longer easily accessible.
