A list of my favourite legal latin expressions + what they mean

(aka latin is cool in specific legal contexts and we should keep on using it because it commucates what we mean more efficiently that if we had to find a way to say it in modern languages, BUT ALSO latin should not be a barrier to understanding legal language, the law is SHOULD be understandable and non elitist)

Erga Omnes / Inter partes : " we are making this EVERYONE'S BUSINESS" vs "this is a you-problem, so you get a you-solution"

Ex tunc / Ex nunc : "let's all pretend this has always been the rule" vs "cant do shit about the past, this is only for the future"

Nulla poena sine legem / nulla poena sine culpa: "no punishment without a rule being broken" / "no punishment if there wasn't a fuckup of some kind on your part"

Pater is est.../mater siempre... : "let's ... assume the daddy is the wife's husband, for now" vs "we all SAW where/who that baby CAME FROM"

de lega lata / de lege ferranda : "I'm saying that's what the law IS, tough luck" vs "I'm saying that's what the law SHOULD BE though"

Obiter Dictum : Court decided it had an opinion, and it wasn't going to be stopped by the fact that this opinion had nothing to do with the case

Fraus omnia corrumpit: Fraud. Corrupts. All.

Ex officio: No one asked, but i'm gonna do it anyway

Nemo auditur...: No you can't benefit from your own fuckup

Clausula Rebus: we agreed during specific circumstances... unfortunately, circumstances have changed.

Usucapio: I've been calling dibs on this for so long, at this point it's legally mine.

Ad nutum: because I WANT to, no I don't need to explain or justify that.

Sui generis: it's... it's its own thing.

Intuitu personae: this is based on THAT person - if it's not THAT person, all bets are off

Pacta Sund Servanda : you fucking SIGNED THE THING so now yes you gotta DO THE THING

Finally got rid of my old thinkpad, that one had half of its keyboard non-functional, amongst many other problems. Really been using it for too many years.

The M1 Air is so cost effective when you have student discount, thank you UNiDAYS, saved my damn life.

48hr tumblr blackout proposal

tumblr mobile has seadily become near unusable these past few updates. not just from a user experience perspective (which is important enough in itself) but also from an accessibility perspective.

examples include the new way the image viewer works (if you can call it "working"), the tumblr live button replacing the profile button, and that newly created blogs will be forced to have their main dashboard tab be the 'for you' page.

the demands of the protest would be along the lines of:

reverse the recent image viewer update

scrap the new users 'for you' page default setting

let us turn off tumblr live indefinitely

increase efforts against spam / porn bots

make reporting abuse and hate speech as easy as reporting as reporting spam

let us go nuts show nuts again... for real this time

commit to improving usability and accessibility, and listening to users!

(suggestions welcome!)

to protest against these usability issues, and inspired by the recent reddit blackout, i propose a 48 hour blackout (where you don't use tumblr at all). preferably of both mobile and web (since web has problems too) but mobile is the focus here.

I suggest the 48 hours between the 30th of June to the end of the 1st of July.

this marks the end of pride month (for the "queerest place on the internet") and the start of disability month (since accessibility is a massive issue here).

tumblr office is in San Francisco, USA, so the times and dates will be calculated using their time zone (PDT).

you can find out the times and dates for your timezone here.

i can't afford to blaze this post so please spread it around as much as possible! protests only work if significant numbers show up!

[mangedog]

tumblr rejected the blaze campaigns for this post because they know it would hurt them. let's make this an indefinite blackout - it's the best way to get results.

(so the blackout would be from June 30th onwards)

staff statements, politician answers, disconnect

i do have to premise, many staff-involved posts are going to be from cyle's blog or written by him. some have other staff contributing to the answer! but he appears to be a sort of main front-end developer, so he's quite literally the most visible staff member, to me at least.

thanks for your feedback! no.

make it accessible? nah, no thank you.

empty words and a cash grab

I have seniority, tough luck! 🤷‍♂️

your gif quality sucks now? here's a solution to a completely different problem :)

getting their disconnect called out

disappointment w disconnect and attitude w older users.

discussion on transparency

asking for forever? list plz :)

further disconnect

issues w reblog chains

thought it was a bug. it is not.

deep dive

feedback on functionality

layout issues:

unintuitive

changes are needed, not this one

insight on ui changes

inconsistencies and broken ui

issues w video/picture viewer

hurts the curating of feeds+

lack of functionality

doubles w accessibility issues

issues w other long standing features

custom domains

legacy editor (expands on gif link above)

fun this is long standing now

user frustrations and rage

one two three four five six

and personally my favorite post

we didn't forget :)
