Not to sound like a decrepit, rambling corpse about it, but back in my day Word used to be a pre installed program that came with your computer, if you were running Windows.

No subscription. Just program.

On your computer. You got to use it forever and ever and never had to worry about it going away.

Because it was physically on your computer. As a program. That you actually owned. Not because you got it separately, but because it was a standard inclusion with your computer.

I'm sorry but I'll just never get over it. I remember when companies cared about their products being usable out of the box. I remember when our things belonged to us.

Old man shaking fist at cloud, wherein the cloud is the background of the Windows 98 logo.

Sometimes I feel like humans wouldn't give Rocky the same treatment that the Eridians gave Grace, but then I remember that PHM is about hope and coming together. And you know what?

The humans would give Rocky the BEST living enclosure and the BEST engineering equipment to play around with.

Love for Rocky would infuse human culture. The Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra would translate A Midsummer Night's Dream into Eridian, which would launch a whole new genre of opera.

Rocky would be a universally beloved figure across the whole planet, and people of all walks of life - from billionaires trying to show off, to school children who were introduced to Rocky in a Bill Nye cameo - would donate to the Eridian Life Support team for as long as Rocky lived. And once Rocky died, the Life Support Team would continue to keep the habitat functional, just in case our neighbors stop by to say hi.

There would be Rocky merch and a world-wide Rocky holiday.

Rocky would wear his exo-suit and co-teach classes with Grace. He would also teach engineering classes by himself. His students would love him. He would also earn an ungodly amount of human money to spend frivolously from doing lectures at symposiums and universities worldwide.

Also, the internet would be full of (somewhat concerned but also funny and affectionate) memes about Rocky and Grace's codependence, and people would do everything to keep those two together and support their heroes.

Earth would welcome Rocky just as warmly as Erid welcomed Grace.

I actually do think we should discourage women from becoming housewives. Do not become financially dependent on a man. That's how a lot of women ended up dead over the years. A man gets violent suddenly and you have to choose between homelessness or potentially dying at his hand because you have an enormous gap in your resume and no degrees or certifications or anything that will help you pursue a career that will allow you to be financially independent. He owns your bank account. His name is probably the one on the car. Try and leave and he can report it stolen. Where will you go then?

Don't become a housewife.

[ladyfoxfire]

And if you do become a housewife, take steps to protect yourself. Make sure you’re legally married, for starters; stay-at-home girlfriends have very little legal recourse to claim their partner’s assets in a breakup. Make sure your name is on the house deed/rental agreement, and have your car in your name, even if your spouse is paying for it. Have your spouse transfer money every month into an account solely in your name, so you can buy yourself things without needing permission, but also so you can save up to leave if needed.

If your spouse fights you on any of this, then don’t quit your job. The tradwife to poverty pipeline is real, and so is financial abuse.

[dressedupliketheking]

also, many women/people experience controlling behaviour and domestic violence from their partner for the first time during pregnancy. don’t risk thinking “he’s just stressed, it’ll get better when the baby comes” because it won’t. neither you and your child will ever be safe with that man. get out as early and safely as you can

I reblogged this yesterday, but I want to reblog it again. Diabetic ketoacidosis turns your blood acidic and will essentially burn you from the inside out.

The stories you hear of people dying from rationing, this is what happens to their body.

Affordable insulin isn’t just a right, it’s a necessity.

No one should have to die like that when it’s preventable with access to proper medication.

thank you everyone for reblogging/replying with "Jesus Handjob Christ".

You understand my vision, and it's good to know I'm among my people.

[necro-om-nom-nomicon]

Are we talking "normal" handjobs? Since it's Jesus, it could very well be a stigmata handjob.

[foone]

called him up on my popephone and he said that the boring answer is that he doesn't have holes in his hands, that's not how romans crucified people, some punk wrote that story about the nail-holes later and they apparently didn't understand how roman crucifixion worked.

[kawaoneechan]

Coming from you, the phrase "some punk" sounds like a self-indictment.

[foone]

I am far from the only "some punk" and I can confirm I have written 0% of christian doctrine, I have a personal rule against writing bibles.

[virtualgirladvance]

wait is his middle name handjob or is jesus giving christ a handjob and what does that mean about the holy trinity?

[foone]

yes, and yes, and a lot

you may be thinking that some of the reactions to the tumblr update are unfounded or panicky. but i meant what i said: this will fucking destroy any artist on this site.

for your reference, i tracked down one of my original posts; which had a notes section that looked like this:

and here is what it looks like now:

holy shit. by my math, that is not even two percent of the amount of aggregate notes my writing actually has. i am not able to see any of the literal hundreds of replies, comments, or tags.

maybe this is a bit presumptuous but i consider myself to be fairly popular on this site. i still remember the first time a large blog "picked up" my work - how quickly all of a sudden i was getting seen. notes on my poetry jumped from like 10 to 300 to 3k. overnight. that was the magic of tumblr, and the incredible writing community i found here.

but now if i answer any of my fellow writers, if i say please go check this out or even if i add additional context to my own work - the artist is removed completely from their own content.

do you want to reply to an "ask game"? do you want to reply to a story prompt? do you want to just make a funny joke with your friends? well, that sucks - you might be depriving them of literally 98% of their notes.

it isn't about clout chasing. it is about giving creators control over their own materials. even a silly post deserves to be connected directly with the person that thought it up.

the tumblr feedback form is currently crashed for me, but when it's up, everyone please go (politely! calmly! like you're walking in a burning building!) tell them what you think. in the meantime: @staff @changes like... i am begging you. literally just set up a suggestion box for ideas on how to monetize tumblr, surely one of us can help you.

[that-stone-butch]

personalized ads are so funny to me

'hey we've been spying on you and tracking your every move. it's a culmination of state of the art technology and an unprecedented invasion of consumer privacy. a room full of men with made up jobs bent their will toward decades of constructing this system, defending it in court, and tirelessly innovating new ways to aggregate more data about you'

and the end result is

'yeah so uh we saw that you recently bought a car. so here's an ad for that car'

like no i'm good actually. you might be aware that i already have one

[lasrina]

Saw a post somewhere that said "I just bought a refrigerator and now I'm getting ads for refrigerators. Do they think I'm a collector?"

I've never been anywhere colder than -3°C but I'll still choose freezing over sweating.

over a quarter of those polled says they'd rather die horribly of hypothermia than get a little sweaty and i really really try not to go here but yeah i dont have trouble believing this is the celibacy website. extremities rotting and falling off like "yeah but i can always put another layer on"

"Comply or die" is a feature of fascism, not a feature of a free society.

What are people not getting?

[socialistexan]

If someone in "the roving gang of masked goons who disappear people into concentration camps with no accountability and uniforms with no ID that you can easily spoof on Amazon" are asking me to leave the safety of my car so they can have total control over me and my person, I'm at the very least hesitating.

Also ICE has no jurisdiction over US citizens, none of us have to listen to diddly shit from them, legally. Most conservatives are just so used to submitting to the will of whatever authority figure around them that their daddy figure of the day told them to.

we should globally ban the introduction of more powerful computer hardware for 10-20 years, not as an AI safety thing (though we could frame it as that), but to force programmers to optimize their shit better

[kawaiimunism]

I reblogged this like 9 times kinda jokingly, but software should be able to run on older and less powerful hardware, and consume less power on newer hardware. Like, this is a real problem imo
