the way some people are talking about the fires in LA is really fucking gross.

people understand it’s not just rich celebrities who are losing their homes, right?

it’s also working-class families who have lived in their homes/neighborhoods for generations. it’s people who had their fire insurance canceled last month and just lost every single thing they own. and guess what? they won’t be able to afford to rebuild their homes or replace their belongings.

there is also an untold number of unhoused people who are being seriously impacted right now, either by the fires themselves or from the hazardous air and weather conditions that have been occurring.

so yeah some ultra-rich celebrities have been affected by these fires, but a lot of working-class people and vulnerable populations just lost everything.

it costs nothing to have some fucking empathy.

[imsosry-sir]

no bc seriously.

while their area hasn’t been affected yet, literally nearly half of my entire family is from LA… and it’s not because they’re rich??

they’ve literally been there for generations bc that’s just where they ended up after immigrating.

like working-class minorities (altho many now retired or reaching that age) who bought their places over 50 years ago (and whose families have been there even longer).

like in these days in my grandparents’ neighborhood, even tho it used to be a pretty sketchy area and the properties are tiny, yes new houses being built after old ones get torn down go for insane prices.

but for my grandparents themselves like they’ve owned their house since idk at least the 70s like my mom spent her entire life in that house and was always considered low income / just over the poverty line.

and they’ve recently been able to retire in that same house.

(and their house is probably the only place i’ve ever actually been able to call home bc i’ve always moved around a lot my entire life)

it’s literally where I’M originally from.

in general the rate of poverty there is probably higher than people would think like it’s not all A-list celebrities who live in LA. and obviously the number of people without homes has always been incredibly high. like literally what do you think happens when everything there costs so much??

so i see people being like haha yeah let it burn who cares they’re all rich they can afford to move elsewhere …like do you actually know what you’re fucking talking about???

it’s been making me so genuinely upset

(and obviously areas like the palisades ARE extremely bougie but it’s not like the fires are stopping or have been contained, and the way people talk about it is as if they’re fine with the entire place getting wiped off the map - i’m not trying to defend or speak on whatever, i just want to say that not ALL of LA is as rich and affluent as people paint it to be)

[imsosry-sir]

i had just gotten on… to find… nearly all of my favorite ongoing fics had happened to be updated today….. ao3 let me INNN

[butteredtoads]

Fun perk of tumblr: everytime ao3 goes down and you're like, "is that just my internet or is something wrong?" You can immediately go to the ao3 tag on tumblr to see other people screaming in agony

[imsosry-sir]

so funny the way ao3 goes down and there’s immediately a flood of tumblr posts about it

[imsosry-sir]

i feel the need to rb this obviously

[wantonlywindswept]

googledocs you are getting awfully uppity for something that can’t differentiate between “its” and “it’s” correctly

[wantonlywindswept]

oho and now you’re questioning my adverb usage? you? you?

you fucking dare?

[wantonlywindswept]

you try to change ‘tears’ to ‘years’ for no reason but don’t catch ‘imporint’???

[wantonlywindswept]

hey quick question gdocs

what the fuck

[wantonlywindswept]

1. how the fuck did this post become so popular

2. everyone just commenting ‘QUERCHED’ is delightful

3. some people have suggested i use grammarly. this is letting the robots win and also would deprive me of the opportunity to complain about insignificant technical things instead of just wanting to scream over writing all the time

4. i use googledocs because i want access to my writing on multiple platforms and also because fuck microsoft 

5. the difference between [its] and [it’s] is that [it’s] is always used as a shortened form of [it is] and [its] is used as the possessive of [it]. yes, this goes against the usual practice of just tacking on an [‘s] when you want to indicate ownership. yes, english is absolutely a trash language.

[wantonlywindswept]

btw, gdoc’s most recent transgression:

noooope

[wantonlywindswept]

LITERALLY THE EXACT OPPOSITE MEANING OF WHAT I WANT, GDOCS

[wantonlywindswept]

i’m sorry what kind of AI FUCKERY is going on here that you are trying to ADD IN ADVERBS FOR ME that could ENTIRELY CHANGE THE TONE from a neutral ‘He’d been young’ to something that would put emphasis on just how young he was and how long ago it was you cannot just THROW EXTRA WORDS IN LIKE THAT

‘he’d been so young’ I’LL FUCKING KILL YOU

[wantonlywindswept]

OH MY FUCKING GOD ARE YOU SERIOUS

me @ everyone else using googledocs:

YOU

[amarits]

I just listened to a podcast with an A.I. research scientist. She said if you wouldn’t trust autocorrect to be in charge of a decision, then you shouldn’t trust another A.I. with it, so… that’s something to worry about

[elfwreck]

Grammarly is not better.

If you were thinking learning to proofread wasn’t actually helpful…

[lastoneout]

This is funny but also as someone who has dyslexia and relies heavily on spell check to communicate legibly this is honestly horrifying.

tumblr: the only place where the news of the attempted assassination of a former president was conveyed via an old supernatural meme and is somehow still less popular than gay porn

[percypaints]

Trump survived. Here's what will happen.

Every media, news outlet will be showing this photo. Not of a convicted felon who was impeached, who summoned violent terrorists to the white house, who sexually assaulted many women, but of a survivor, a hero.

And Trump will win 2024. The Alt Right and his MAGA supporters will see this and be more motivated than ever to vote Trump. Centrists will see this and think "the left is so much more extreme than the right" and vote Trump. Fuck, even liberals, after seeing Bidens disastrous debate performance might vote trump. In their eyes, he's a survivor now, he's strong now, he's worthy now. If you don't believe me, wait and see the top comments of news articles, the Reddit posts, the twitter quote tweets.

It isn't if Trump wins, it's when Trump wins, Ukraine is Fucked. Palestine is extra Fucked. And of course, America is absolutely Fucked.

I don't like Biden, but Americans have to remember: you live in a two-party system.

It is Biden or Trump.

And I'd much much rather an old husk of a man that has done so much good for trans rights, social policies, and human rights in general, than Trump. Yes, Biden has sent aids to Israel. Do you think Trump won't do the same? Do you think Trump won't do worse?

"Vote for a third party, they're both awful" you might say. Come on, be realistic. This is about holding the line against fascism. It is going to be way WAY easier to change the system when you're up against milk toast Joe than an actual dictator. So,

For the love of god, vote Biden in Novermber.

Because I remember disinformation being spread around the last few elections and I’m sure assholes will bring it back:

YOU CAN’T VOTE ONLINE.

YOU CAN’T VOTE FROM YOUR PHONE.

IN MANY STATES THERE ARE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES FOR PHOTOGRAPHING YOUR BALLOT.

DO NOT WEAR CAMPAIGN GEAR TO THE POLLS.

DO NOT TRY TO PERSUADE PEOPLE TO VOTE FOR A CANDIDATE AT THE POLLS.

DO NOT ENGAGE IN ANY KIND OF POLITICAL DISCOURSE AT THE POLLS.

NO ELECTION IS EVER A SURE THING, EVEN IF YOU’RE IN THE BLUEST OR REDDEST OF STATES.  IF SOMEONE TRIES TO TELL YOU THAT YOU CAN SIT THIS ONE OUT, THEY ARE EITHER IGNORANT OR MALICIOUS.

VOTE.

[bamboozled-bumblefuck]

YOU CAN GET YOUR PHONE OUT IN THE POLLS

YOU CAN'T TAKE PICTURES

BUT YOU CAN LOOK UP WHATEVER YOU WANT

LOOK PEOPLE AND POSITIONS UP IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHO THEY ARE, WHAT THEY STAND FOR, OR WHAT THE POSITION IS

VOTE ALL THE WAY DOWN THE BALLOT

LOCAL ELECTIONS ARE IMPORTANT TOO

ok memes aside i have some insight for the americans tonight as a brazilian

we had a similar situation a few years ago, our own far right asshole was stabbed at a rally and survived. guess what? the right organised and rallied behind it, he got martyred without dying. they turned that event into some divine-esque thing it was nuts. our political climate at the time was perfect for a far right storm, and lo and behold he got elected

it doesn't take a political scientist to see the republicans are about to do the exact same thing so stay vigilant, this is gonna boost his numbers more than you think

jesus christ lads either shoot him or don’t. but if you’re going to, you have to put your whole ass into it. look what you’ve done. you’ve made him the worst kind of martyr - the kind that’s still fucking alive to cause problems

[whyissupernaturaltrending]

a former US president gets shot at and instead of trending himself he causes supernatural to trend because everyone is sharing the news via the destiel meme. unparalleled

oh wow
