PSA for sad twitter people wondering why there are softcore porn livestreams at the top of your dashboard:
settings > dashboard > scroll to the very bottom > "snooze tumblr live"
you're welcome. don't ask. we pretend it doesn't exist and no one talks about it.
Reblog to save a dash.
Okay, so here’s the updated plans for fighting against youtube's new ai age policy and privacy violating rule (I believe in us!)
Plan 1. Black out and leave youtube/ youtube boycott (August 13 to the point where the policy is gone)
It’s a very simple plan, but this time we just leave until it’s fully reversed. That way YouTube doesn’t just ignore us and the original black out. We have to stand our ground and show them we aren’t going to give up. We have to last as long as possible and let their revenue drain until they concede or someone else comes in and makes another platform (that isn’t based on politics but the same ideas as the original YouTube)
Plus I would like to add some small extra things that will help with the blackout though. That being mass downloading YouTube content. Now this might be the easiest thing for certain people, but it’s something.
Mass downloading YouTube content can help in case there a couple of videos or channels you want to watch during the blackout.
(I use something called a ytdlp but there might be better options for you out there, there might even be built in ones in a web browser or two, just search around the place, you'll find it eventually)
Forget what I said about alternatives that block YouTube, avoid anything that even remotely connects to YouTube. If it connects to YouTube it still provides traffic and helps it out, we want to disconnect from it completely, don’t let it have a drop of traffic
Plan 2. Bugging the crap out of them.
Now since they have a mail box for us to use, that can be used for our advantage here. So here’s what we do, send them letters asking them to reverse the decision, that way they will be overwhelmed by letters that have to eventually give up. Now I don't want you guys to send out slurs, curses or whatever. I need you guys to be kind and critical. I want you to point everything wrong with this and why it is destined to fail and leave the company crumbling
In addition to these letters, if at all possible, I want you guys to include photos of comments made by other people (Twitter, tumblr, whatever) criticizing this and making it known that it’s not just you guys who are angry, but people all over too.
Now we can also include emails in this, but that might be harder than excepted, but in case you do want to send in a email, you can send it that way
I can't find any other way of sending them an email, but good to you if you do find it (though I would recommend a letter much more)
UPDATE, someone has pointed out that we should all send out our letters on a single day, Im taking around August 5th about a week before the thing actually rolls out and than maybe we’ll do another batch on the 8th just in case
Make sure you mass send a bunch of letters
WIP plan 3, legal bull
I wish I could say this plan was finished, but unfortunately, it is not at all. All we have to go for here to filing a complaint towards the FTC about this and or using what this user recommneds (though I can't fully say if it'll work or not)
This plan will be worked on as much as possible
I want everyone if they can to spread to outside of tumblr, talk about it on twitter, facebook, blusky, youtube itself, this plan has to spread to as much people as possible.
I believe we can do our best and shine a light through these horrible times, we can be light in the darkness that will help others shine a burn a hole in this horrible system of censorship
I believe in every last one of you, I believe you can do good and spread good, because in your hearts, you are good
If you have any other ideas, let me know, cause i know more minds are better than one.
Good luck!
Update! We have a discord server now! We will be planning, spreading news and of course sharing ways to deal with YouTube’s ID policy

Hogwarts houses as Eragon characters
by @butterfly-in-progress
(I love the Eragon books, but it’s been a while since I read them, so these might not be that accurate.) Hope you guys like this! Did my best, and feel free to disagree or add something because I miss these books and haven’t had many people to fangirl with!
Gryffindor: Nasuada (sense of duty to her people, faces torture with an iron will) and Rowan Garrowson (natural leader, fighter for what he loves)
Slytherin: Arya (ambition drives her, and it takes a lot for her to relinquish control in any situation. She doesn’t let emotions get in the way of what she feels is important and what she ultimately wants for herself and the world) and Galbatorix (yes I know it’s stereotypical to have the bad guy as a Slytherin, but let’s be honest, he wanted power above all else, and his ambition drove him to evil)
Ravenclaw: Oromis (he valued history and knowledge about magic. Wanted to preserve that culture and intellectual property) and Saphira (valued wisdom and creative solutions to problems. Because she was so young for a dragon, she was often fascinated by the world and was always willing to learn more.)
Hufflepuff: Eragon (he just wants to protect the people he loves and is always hardworking. He approaches people of all kinds with respect and kindness, and heck he uses empathy to win in the end) and Murtagh (again, just wants to protect the people he loves - but his loyalty, especially to family, is manipulated and twisted through torture. Even so, he holds on to the few ways in which he can keep those he loves close and safe.

Okay, what counts as a comfort show?
Like, does it actually need to be cozy or can it just be something that grabs your attention enough that you don't really give a shit about the world around you for a while?
My friend asked me what my "comfort show" was but all I could come up with that's actually a show is ATLA.
And now all I can think of is like... Jurassic Park and the Lord of the Rings series. Which like, does that work? Because I wouldn't consider either of those series to be terribly comforting in concept but like, they're a damn good distraction!

Listen.
EVERYBODY knows (or should) that you DO. NOT. STOP. in Vidor, Texas.
It’s best to just run out of gas elsewhere. Whatever you do, black folks, DO NOT STOP IN VIDOR, TEXAS.
There’s a good chance you’ll get lynched or just come up missing - and I’m not joking.
also do NOT stop in Harrison, Arkansas!!!! (relatively close to OK and MI) a nazi town with a BIG KKK organization.

Remember to take your daily vitamin C
So apparently the pro-Tetris scene is exploding right now because a 13 year old nerd just reached the game's true killscreen for the first time ever
So, basically, for much of Tetris's history, people believed level 29 was the "last" level of Tetris, as the speed of the blocks would get so high that no human could do anything but lose; the blocks would go so fast that human hands physically could not control them. However, Tetris does not get any faster beyond that point, so if you're capable of playing level 29, you're capable of playing hypothetically infinitely.
Except Tetris, the original version for the NES, is not a hypothetical. It's a physical object, an item you can touch and hold, and it has limits. Many classic arcade-style video games have honest-to-god killscreens, where the game breaks so badly that it becomes completely unplayable. Pac-Man, famously, has a killscreen that garbles half of the playing field and doesn't spawn enough dots for the level to ever end. Tetris was assumed to be no exception, but because of the presumed-impossible difficulty of level 29, the community considered that to be Tetris's killscreen, and all high-leveled Tetris play centered around level 29 being the absolute end of your run, no matter what.
But, and if you've heard literally anything about people getting insanely good at retro games, you'll know what comes next. Of course, someone figures out how to control the game past level 29. In 2011, Thor Aackerlund discovered a technique now known as "hypertapping" (which is exactly what it sounds like, tapping very very fast) - and became the first person to play level 30.
But hypertapping wasn't enough. It was still stupidly difficult to get to, let alone past, level 30. Then this guy named Cheez shows up and finds that using an even more absurd technique, called "Rolling", which was even faster than hypertapping. People weren't just hitting level 30, but then 40, then 50, and then all the way into the 90s. Since all post-29 levels have the exact same speed, once they mastered rolling, they were pretty much good to play forever.
With levels 29+ conquered, now players could face the real killscreen of Tetris. A Tetris-playing AI got the first crash, but since it was playing a very slightly modified version (to show a larger score number, because the vanilla score counter didn't have enough digits), it only kinda-sorted counted. So the community picked apart the game's code to find where the game could hypothetically crash while completely unmodified - and found the current human record was not that far off.
So the entire community fucking scrambles to be the first person to crash Tetris, but then were confounded by another technically-not-game-ending-but-still-pretty-much-impossible-for-a-human bug; after level 138, the game stops choosing the colors for the blocks from where it's supposed to, leading it to display some truly heinously color palettes. Most of them are just ugly, but a few make the blocks you're placing next to invisible. (This was actually known about before the AI even crashed the game, and part of the reason the AI could get so much further than humans; it didn't need to visually see the blocks.)
Just next to invisible, though. You could still sorta see most of the blocks, and when you pass the level, the game pulls a new color palette, so if you can tough it out long enough to get 10 lines, you're probably gonna be able to continue your game for a while after that. It's annoying as hell, but not impossible. So, of course, the runners start getting past them and brushing up against the crashable levels.
And by runners, I mostly mean a 13 year old boy who goes by the online handle Blue Scuti. He'd skyrocketed into fame in the Tetris community relatively recently by achieving scores and levels that most adults couldn't even dream of, so of course he was among the first people to get past both impossible-palette levels, and he was able to keep going.
The game doesn't always crash in one specific spot, though. It just starts having a chance to crash after a certain point. You might have to perform some specific actions in specific windows of time to get it to crash on purpose, and it's much more likely that you'll lose control and lose your run before you achieve that goal.
Blue Scuti missed the first crash opportunity in his run. He was the first person to get that far at all, so it'd be a record regardless, but he was determined to win. He somehow keeps his cool, despite being a literal child with thousands of eyes on him (this was streamed on Twitch, of course), and never loses control of his stack, all the way until he reaches the next crash opportunity all the way on level 157.
And he fucking does it. He gets a single line clear in the middle of level 157 and the game just stops. It completely crashed. A 13 year old boy nicknamed Blue Scuti is the first human being in history to crash Tetris in this way. He is the first person ever to see Tetris's real killscreen. This game is over twice his age, and he is the first to kill it dead.
This kid fucking rules.
(if you want more detail, I learned basically all of the above from this video by aGameScout, please watch it!!)
This is insanely epic!!

I... This is one of those things that makes me want to shriek at the top of my lungs because it's pretty and I want it.... but also because I'm so jealous of this level of skill with watercolor because my dumb ass keeps overdoing the water to paint ratio and I always forget that, despite the name, you most definitely *can* put too much water into watercolor, depending on what you're painting.
hey, don't cry. one cup heavy whipping cream, two tablespoons granulated sugar, three tablespoons cocoa powder and whisk until stiff peaks form for three ingredient chocolate mousse, okay?
i realized that i like the format because it's the exact opposite of the recipe blogs with 1000 words before they get to an ingredient list.
Are grabby hands still a thing? Cuz this recipe gives me that same "I want. Giv now" vibe as the grabby hands thing.
we’re gonna be ok btw
it’s ok if you’re scared. or tired. or unsure. or one million billion other complicated emotions at once. but i’ve decided things are going to be ok anyway. and i will hold that belief close to my heart no matter how scared or tired or lonely or depressed or one million billion other things i am. i will hold onto that. and if you’re scared, you can hold onto me. we can carry each other through
This is the most beautiful thing I've ever encountered in this app. It made me a little bit saner.
