A little discussed tumblr experience is that when you add a new gif to a post, it goes into the gif library that everyone has access to

Every now and then you get a notification that a user has added your gif to their post and you are treated to a glimpse of a user you have never seen before in a fandom you have never heard of talking about something you will never see again

And it feels like

10/10 experience, keep it coming

Exhibit A

Potential Patreon Project: The Harrington Materials

The Smithsonian has an archive of notes written by 20th century linguist John Peabody Harrington. In these archive are scanned handwritten notes on Gabrieleño a.k.a. Tongva, among other languages. However, these notes, being handwritten, are not easy to read and are not necessarily handicap accessible for those with vision impairments. I have not been able to find a neat and convenient resource to overcome this issue.

My idea is that if I set up a patreon, people could send me a few bucks a month, and I could do the work of reading through the document and creating spreadsheets or similar documents with the information in the archives, including their reference position, so that people could easily see the information within.

Im currently wrapping up a project and between jobs, so if I am going to invest time in this, this is an ideal time to start. So I guess this is just a gauge of interest.

If I set up a Patreon where you could pay me to do digitization work on American Indian languages and release the results publicly, how much would you donate?

I would not donate any

I would donate $1 a month

I would donate $1.01-5.00 a month

I would donate more

Far too happy about that.

That's Act 1! I'm done LBing for the night, but I'll pick up tomorrow probably. Maybe not though, Ive got some irons in the fire, long overdue. we'll see.

[overtrolled-liveblog]

Yeaaaaah, what was it Yiffy said? "why should these stupid selfish people get what they want"?

Once more turns the wheel...

[overtrolled-liveblog]

Looks like the Gamma kids want out! And we are presented with a new decision tree.

Option 1 might be Option 2 from the last one. Let's give it a go anyway.

And of course they start bickering over their drama. This is why you guys are always fucking up! This is why you turn your back on the body!

That said, some highlights

[overtrolled-liveblog]

YOU ARE COMING.

Ah, they turned their backs on the body.

why do they always turn their back on the fucking body?

[overtrolled-liveblog]

What an image.

Okay, it looks like we have a split here. Vriska says this reality is collapsing and we all need to go into the meatverse, and revealed that that is where Dave is. And Now we have 2 options.

As with my Friendsim liveblogs, we're trying option 1 first.

[overtrolled-liveblog]

Okay, so John, Roxy, and Callie got hit with the orbital laser, but they seem okay. Perhaps leaving the construction up to the Felt was not a great move, or perhaps it was god shit.

looks like you'll have to live, Rose, at least for now.

ROSE: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Yeah, that's what it's like.

And yes, Jane's severed head is still alive and scowling.

Hahahaha ah... Harry Anderson Egbert horny moments. But to be fair, seeing a twentysomething version of your romantic partner slash through a battlefield and a battleship would be something for anyone I'm sure.

Basically all of page 727 is a royal hoot. a nice decompression from the excitement.

One thing I cannot help myself from mentioning is that Jane must have been cut pretty low on the neck if she's making audible grunts. without the vocal folds it's pretty hard to make any sound but [long rattle of air].

Okay, first things first, that was pretty awesome. I appreciated Rose's reference to Monster by Urusawa. The fakeout with Jade was something else, and the joke about Sollux was funny. I'm going to have to rewatch to get a better sense of things. I did notice Meenah using her thief of life powers to undo a rebel's death by taking life from a crockercorp soldier. I noticed Jake having a big hope moment, and I noticed what seemed to be Vriska decapitating Jane. This last element is the last thing I was spoiled for that I did not mention, but it seems like Jane will survive the decapitation and go on to have some sort of interaction with the others afterwards.

I'm going to go ahead and rewatch now.

Oh and Jade taxidermied Dave's corpse! That was funny as hell.

I think it was Jake's Hope powers that unkilled Jade? And then she went along teleporting enemy skulls out of heads? And then Jane used her life powers to fuse her soldiers into a kaiju sized one?

Vriska taking 4 years to forgive herself was funny, but it felt kind of...idk. They were trying to have their moment but something about it didnt work for me.

Altogether a fun flash!

TEREZI: M4YB3 1D B3 MOR3 1NCL1N3D TO JO1N YOU TWO FOR TH3S3 SORTS OF MOM3NTOUS OCC4S1ONS 1F YOU W3R3NT SO 1NS1ST3NT ON FR4M1NG TH3M 4S S3XU4LLY 4S S3M4NT1C4LLY POSS1BL3 TEREZI: "OH T3R3Z1 COM3 W4TCH D1RK SPR4Y H1S S33D 4LL OV3R TH3 PL4N3T, 1TS GONN4 B3 SO COOL 4ND NORM4L"

I love Terezi, even confined to the Tiresias to the Oedipal shitshow that is RB and UD.

ROSE: Terezi, please. ROSE: First of all, Dirk *and I* were spraying *our* seed all over the planet. ROSE: Us girls are supposed to look out for each other, not diminish one another's accomplishments. TEREZI: MY B4D ROSE: I forgive you.

lol.

TEREZI: Y34H? DIRK: I can't believe you actually thought you had to hold my hand. ROSE: Fucking lol.

They're so bitchy to one another. I'm having fun reading this now.

Hours in the future, but not many...

gavageCunctation [GC] began negging adamantGriftress [AG] 801 MINUTES AGO.

"negging", huh? A new messaging verb suggests a new species. This must be a pair of Rosebot and Ultdirk's creations.

It definitely has the trappings of a conversation about starting a Game. However, there is also an AG named Vriska (cerulean type), so maybe not? Unless Vriska's are a universal constant.

That's the last 2024 Update. I'm diving straight into 2025.

Ah, good catch @herestoanotherweirdo

Dear Vrissy and Harry, Yiffy left. I think she wants to help the rebel forces, somehow. Which is pretty stupid. But I am also pretty stupid, because I want to help her. I hope if I really try, I can keep her from dying, at least. I’m kind of sick of sitting around doing nothing. I thought it’d be best, doing this alone, since Yiffy sort of knows me. And you yelled at her a lot. And don’t seem to like her in general. Also this will require a lot of drastic gymnastics, which is not either of your strong suits. No offense. Hope you understand, Tavvy. (P.S. I left you guys some trail mix. Don’t pick the raisins out; they’re healthy.)

Whelp. That's not ideal. Tavvy was sort of marked for some real bad shit happening to him since he was named Tavros. But y'know. Based on the thing Jake said after waking up on the battlefield, Tavvy is literally on the battlefield now.

Oh fuck, there's a sniper on Jade, and now she's distracted. Fuck fuck fuck

[698] OH FUCK

[699] OH FUCK!!!!

[overtrolled-liveblog]

The somber tone is well executed with great art, and yet there is still space for some visual humor.

Even in Jane's assassination, there is something.

Oh

Oh dear.

Of course.

That scene I was spoiled for hadn't happened yet.

[691] Death would be a kindness, after all. You gave Jake a shot to stay by your side and make something of himself, but in the end he proved himself just another deserter. You should have seen it coming; you learned 15 years ago that people will slip right through your fingers if you let them. It’s fine. You won’t let go again. Jake is your means to an end. When you scramble his frontal lobe, you’ll make sure it doesn’t heal right. It won’t be much of a change, anyway.

And once again, Jane is ready to turn Jake into an object. It's interesting that this is the way it's going. But fuck, man, what a scene.
