About ten, fifteen years ago I wrote a story about a guy living in a Capitalist dystopia. His walls, furniture, and tableware are all covered in smart displays. Basically animated wallpaper. It's sold as being able to turn your room or objects into anything - A nice forest view, outer space, a fantasy realm... but the companies that run this stuff keep sneaking ads in.
It gets so bad he's always being woken up by adverts that offer insomnia cures and better bedding that play when he tries to sleep.
So he buys the ad-free tier, and it's great... for a few months. And then he starts getting adverts from 'premium partners'. So he goes up a level... and the same thing happens.
So he jailbreaks his wallpaper and sends all the ad servers to 0.0.0.0 and voila... he can sleep.
Until this SWAT team blows his door off and drag him off to jail. The Ad companies are suing him for loss of revenue for the products he' notionally have bought if he'd watched their adverts, based on some weird 'The average consumer buys X products with an average value of Y' calculation.
The judge is like 'well I dun wanna annoy the sponsors' so he RICO's this guy's house and possessions and sends him to jail.
... which is a nice relaxed non-volent offender jail for the corporately disenfranchised. But because these people have no money... there's no ads and now he's happy because the only place he's free... is in prison.
Which at the time was a bit much and now it's like: Called it.
Elon's suing companies for not advertising because he's losing revenue. He's also cranking the price of Ad Free Twitter. Disney and Amazon play adverts on their paid service when services used to be free because of the adverts... and now you have to pay to watch the adverts or go up a couple of tiers.
And google's going around freaking out about ad-blockers.
Brilliant
saw a post abt "if you must eat animals eat bugs not mammals and birds because at least bugs dont have the ability to love!!!" and ok first off, rude to bugs. lots of bugs participate in relationships we would recognize as similar to the ways we express love. and also i do not think that not experiencing human-y emotions makes an animal less deserving of life, that is weird. second off, you cant justify eating things by only eating shit that "deserves it" or doesnt meet ur alive-ness standards. theres no way to cut that off, everything is always more connected and mote aware and more interesting and more intelligent than we think it is. only way u are going to get not-experiencing food is if you eat fruit nectar honey eggs and mushrooms exclusively. plants are alive and they love each other and they enjoy their existences and experience a lot of complex things! there is no cut off of a living thing being a weird automaton that makes it non-living enough to be edible. you will always be eating a being. u have to get used to reciprocity. u are going to get eaten some day! u can make the world a nice place for other things that are eating each other and having a nice time! its ok. eat.
rmr when i made this post and everybody in the entire world had to tell me that actually mushrooms are alive for 3 entire years
in case it happens again insurance -> mushroom THE FRUITING BODY the part that looks like this 🍄 and is analogous to a fruit or flower and is often intentionally tasty to lure animals to eat them. and not the entire fungal body. which is sentient
for context, this is a Q400
adventure time slang is weird cuz like. when you first watch the show and hear the slang you're like "oh this is cringy slang but its not like awful" but it gets to a point where the voice actors deliver the slang so naturally you don't even notice it and its just. part of the world's vernacular. I can't think of any other show that's done in-universe slang like this
Finn: oh man the frappin dude just ginked up and went flipoo over the junkin fence
Me, 3 seasons into this show: wow he really did huh
It's true but it's also funnier knowing the storyboarders were usually just making Finn say fuck
this is math
i have spent years rewatching all 10 seasons and recording every expletive i hear in adventure time:
Filing these away for later.
We literally cannot let them start charging 80 dollars for video games 70 dollars was already outrageous 60 was pushing it. 80 fucking dollars. ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR DAMN MIND. For MARIO?!?!?!?!?
If we don’t buy it, they’ll lower the price, just like the 3DS. They make more money from 2 million people buying it at $60 than 1 million at $80
Don't even buy the console, don't let them think they can get away with this
I refuse to live in a world where a console cartridge costs eighty fucking dollars
I approve of powerscaling discourse only in utterly senseless contexts. I don't give a shit about which shōnen protagonists could beat up which other shōnen protagonists, but I will 100% read your five thousand word essay exploring the subtle nuances of establishing a tiered ranking of the Smurfs.
"Could Batman beat Captain America" trite, tedious, bullshit. "Could Deadpool beat Roger Rabbit" now you have my attention.
Nothing in the US is going to get better until we abolish slavery for real. Ubiquitously, with no exceptions. Protecting the rights of prisoners actively protects every person in the country.
If the laws allow for any class of people to be stripped of their rights, then any person could be stripped of their rights. And the State has an active incentive to criminalize its critics (like Briana Boston, who was arrested for terrorism despite never having committed a crime.)
As long as criminality is an excuse to strip anyone of their rights, none of us are safe.
Before the war, my husband, my mother, and I decided to go to Egypt for a vacation and to undergo in vitro fertilization. But soon, the war broke out, and we found ourselves stranded there without residency or income. We lived in a shelter for cancer patients, where we found some support from a community sharing our struggles. However, my husband’s father needed expensive monthly treatments. We began collecting donations from friends and acquaintances, trying to adapt to our new reality. Despite the challenges, we held on to hope that the war would end soon so we could return home and pursue our dream of starting a family.
HELLO BELOVED COMMUNITY My name is Mohammed, I'm making this… Mohammed Almeshel needs your support for Urgent,Help us Recover our Home, Edu
ok so in the span of like 5 hours:
- the south korean president declared martial law (the first time since s korea stopped being a military dictatorship in the 80s)
- claims his political opponents are insurgents working on behalf of north korea and communism
- declares that all political activity must cease (inc the national assembly/parliament), all media must be under the control of the military, and all protests/strikes are illegal
- the opposing political party immediately assembles at the national assembly in the middle of the night
- holds an emergency vote that goes thru 190-0 to declare the end to martial law (while barricading the entrances to prevent the military from entering and removing them)
- the president concedes an hour later
- civilian protesters in the streets are calling for the impeachment & arrest of the president
please feel free to add details/correct me
as of 2:40 EST Dec 3 2024
Don't forget that the National Assembly got into the building by scaling/jumping over the walls.
My friends who have never experienced flooding, and who are about to deal with it from this storm, please remember:
1. NO. YOU CANNOT MAKE IT THROUGH THAT WATER ON THE ROAD. I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU'RE DRIVING. TURN. AROUND.
2. DO NOT GO WADING THROUGH THE WATER. EVEN IF YOU JUST WANT TO SEE HOW DEEP IT IS. THAT. WATER. IS. CONTAMINATED.
3. IT IS CALLED FLASH FLOODING FOR A REASON. THE WATER RISES AND SURGES IN A FLASH. STAY. HOME.
4. If you're at risk of flooding, raise up any of your belongings now. Put the legs of tall things in buckets. Know where your important documents are.
5. Stay safe.
I cant come to your birthday there's a big ass skullll flying araound
Ya know when people told me "when you're finally safe enough that you can leave survival mode and start to let go of and process your c-ptsd/trauma things are probably going to get really, really bad before they slowly start to get better" I thought that was reasonable. I did not understand that by "things are going to get bad" they meant "you're going to find yourself in the worst mental state of your entire life, but dw, that means it's working" and tbh I simply wish someone had been more clear.
Not letting these stay in the tags, damn. Let yourself be Goop.
OKAY
It took me a little under 3hrs to get this far (timestamps included below). But here is the lowdown on boops.
There are three colors for boop paws: white, orange, and black. To know what color you'll get from a person, go to their profile. The little boop button's color paw will be what shows up.
Three badges: first sent, 314 sent, 1000+ sent
Also, if you only turn on those three badges, it will be off-center in the box and lowkey triggering.
You can launder boops by booping yourself.
When on desktop (and *only* desktop), you can send super boops, which will show 3 paws at once on your screen, by holding your mouse over the boop button until it spins and then clicking.
However, the gradient notification will show up on both mobile and desktop. Super boops don't change the counter more than a normal boop. They just look fun.
On mobile, once you hit 1000 boops, it will show MAX. But on desktop or mobile *browser*, it will show LOL and then OMG. (Please excuse me switching between devices for this lmao)
I've stopped getting notifications about boops, even from my boop laundering scheme. So OMG is probably the max. (Would be interesting to see WTF or something though 😂)
UPDATE: I HAVE NOTIFICATIONS AGAIN.
ALSO I SAW SOMEONE HAS A WOW? SO NEW LIFE GOAL.
I think that's everything, but let me know if I missed something! Happy booping!
AS OF 1:10AM I HAVE REACHED A WOW
Also forgot to add, there is no rhyme or reason to notifications for this being one color or another. They just are. The only ones that have a definite meaning are the gradient for Super boops
1:45AM AND IM UP TO WOW WOW
AIMING FOR TUM BLR
BECAUSE APPARENTLY THATS WHAT YOU GET AT 10,000 FOR BOTH ACCORDING TO THIS POST
2:02AM AND WTF IS THIS?????
Also realizing I've been at this for almost 5hrs
2:20AM, ABOUT 5HRS INTO IT (with small breaks, obviously)
2:22AM I HAVE ACHIEVED A WHY
2:45AM AND I HAVE WHY WHY
5hrs and 20ish minutes into this
GOING TO BED AND SHALL CONTINUE UPON AWAKENING
OKAY SO
A few people have put in their reblog tags and comments that you CAN superboop on mobile browser in desktop version.
Personally, I couldn't get it to work, but for some people, it's a possibility!
Also
THANK YOU?!?!?
I've definitely missed SOMEthing overnight but I've got time now that I'm awake!
IM AT PLZ
Okay, gonna just save all my progress pics for one reblog at the end because this is getting mad long 🤣
It seems like WOW starts at 4000 boops given, OMG at 2000, MAX at 1000 Adding on all the tiers I've found so far MAX - 1000 LOL - 1500?(M
OKAY I AM STILL BOOPING AND ILL STILL ADD THE PROGRESS AT THE END, BUT HERE IS SOME SUPER HELPFUL INFO!!!
A short break happened between MAX BLR and <33 BLR, but as of 2:18pm I achieved TUM BLR!
Time stamps to show progress 😂
TUMBLR STAFF CAN EVIL BOOP 😭 (is the conclusion I've drawn from asking 3 separate staff members)
UPDATE:
WE CAN EVIL BOOP
Let the button spin 3-4x and you've got yourself an evil boop
Update (because I reached my max post limit): someone said you can click the cats on the meter for fun notifications such as these
