realizing many people don't know about infinity train creator owen dennis' among us show from years ago, which has been trapped in unreleased limbo all this time and was just dumped on streaming this morning with no advertisement. they don't even know about its weirdly stacked cast
I saw this when running newpipe. But wait, it gets deeper. I clicked on the details buttons and it said as of today, we have 83 days left until Google rolls out this new requirement for apps inside and outside of the google play store. If any developer disagrees with their new terms and fees, they will be blocked!
I'll share some of the info below:
Looks like they're trying to nuke the remaining privacy and freedoms we have left on the internet.
What to do?
-Get your developer friends to not comply to their new guides
- Sign the open letter on the site and take action by checking out the full resources list on their website as well!
To summarize, this is all daunting especially when you feel all alone with unfair and inhumane regulations comming out faster than improvements but we got this working together!
Share the link with your friends, family and anyone who will listen!
Your phone is about to stop being yours. In September 2026, Google will block every Android app whose developer hasn't registered with them.
Darkplace is a key example of how in order to truly master making art that is "deliberately bad" you need to have a thorough understanding of what the medium considers the rules for "good form" so that you can than break every single rule.
Hey everyone. There's a new youtube feature that rolled out just yesterday that's raising some privacy concerns.
People in the U.S., U.K., Brazil, and Singapore can now share videos and chat with friends directly within the YouTube app. The update bring
This post talks about a new DM feature in youtube. What it fails to mention is that as part of this new feature is that when you send someone a link to a video, and they open it in the youtube app, they will see who sent them the link. Specifically, your channel name.
If your google account name is your real name, so is your channel name by default.
This means the new default behavior is that everyone you send a youtube link to will see your full name if they open it in the mobile app.
To turn this off:
Go to your youtube app settings
Go to Privacy
Turn off "Channel visibility for shared links"
Trimming the source id (the stuff after the '?' in links) will also prevent this from happening.
i think it’s important to be able to take a step back and recognize that you rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrcvkxxxxjnfrg782]]]]2AQ
i was Thinking but i got up to get coffee and i came back to discover that one of my cats walked across my keyboard and posted this early for me and you know what. they summed it up far more succinctly than i ever could
Yesterday, I spent the whole day reading The Last Will and Testament of Cazador Szarr by AbigailMoment. This was absolutely not what I was supposed to be doing, but the story just completely consumed me! Sooo today I (again) ignored the things I have to do and sketched a few small illustrations
@abigailmoment, if you see this—thank you so much for this work, I’m obsessed now and can’t wait for the next chapter!!
Oh! Look at this beauty. Thank you @heheheku -- I've been enjoying your art for months. You have such a talent for evoking feelings and expressing touch and making things seem soft. Seeing this is very joyful.
A list of particular things I love:
In general
How you express Astarion's emotions through his ears.
How you do Gale's gray hairs. SWIRLY.
Picture 1
The fact we can't see Gale's expression, which makes him feel like an ominous inscrutable figure, which is what he is to Astarion at this point in the story.
That fact juxtaposed over the fact that he's kneeling, like you would at an altar, and that the position of his hands is somewhat anxious, picking at his sleeve.
How much and how often Gale kneels in the story is low-key important. I deliberately associate the verb with him. Astarion tends to crouch or sit or stoop. Gale almost always kneels.
The amount of fear you manage to express in Astarion's expression even though we can only see half his face.
In general the fact that everyone's expressions are partially concealed is such a neat parallel to how little they understand each other in this scene.
How the cobbles are gently implied and then fade, letting us know where we are but not drawing attention away from the figures.
Picture 2
Going to fucking stab someone with the fire poker.
Expression that expresses dread, alarm, but also: GOING TO FUCKING STAB SOMEONE WITH THE FIRE POKER.
The fire poker itself. That's a sharp and deadly looking thing.
Picture 3
How the Dimension Door Gale is drawing escapes the confines of the background! It breaks the rules of composition just as the magic spell it represents breaks the rules of physics! What a NEAT way of expressing magic!
The fact that Gale is standing in front of Astarion, as if to physically block him from harm, which is something he's doing in this scene and also constantly in the story and is also not what a wizard should be doing in combat. But also it's not what a rogue should be doing. These guys suffer greatly from lack of a frontline tank.
THEY'RE HOLDING HANDS.

Darling.
Poor purple wizard.
Yes, you are, but so are we all.
And the systemic violence and exploitation inherent to the world you just stepped into is much more to blame than you are personally.
Dudes healthcare is so fake. My ADHD meds are $940 without insurance. But they gave me a website of "coupons" which straight up looks like a scam website, and I got it today for $60! Just a coupon from a random website and it was $900 cheaper. America, I am confusion!! America explain!!
as a pharmacy technician i can share with you some websites that give you those "coupons" for your meds!
goodrx is the most well known one, but if i'm trying to find the cheapest price for a patient i compare it to scriptcycle, and use whichever is offering the best price. you just type in the medication (PLEASE make sure you're getting the right drug, dosage, and quantity) and your zip code and they will spit out some offers for you
some pharmacies may have their own discount card to compare to as well!
if you are getting a name brand medication, you can also look at the manufacturer's website to see if they offer any evouchers for you to use too
The suburbs dream of violence. Asleep in their drowsy villas, sheltered by benevolent shopping malls, they wait patiently for the nightmares that will wake them into a more passionate world.
“Laios is such a freak, he’s too weird” OH NO! my steak is too juicy, my lobster is too buttery! What’s next? The sexy hunk is too autistic? GET OUT OF HERE!!
I will say there is something very validating about fanart being reblogged by a fictive or fictionkin of the character in question. Like FUCK yes I got a good grade in Sonic the Hedgehog-- I know this because Sonic the Hedgehog (real) liked it
