SO UMM.
I have a Netflix show?? DEADENDIA is getting adapted into a Netflix Original Series.
I’ve been developing this for years and we’re already a year or so into production and like…. I’m soft guys. I’m a showrunner! This crew is amazing, the cast is hilarious, the gayness is MIGHTY and hopefully it’ll make next year a little brighter (and spookier).
This is what I’ve been doing this whole time. This is the “secret project”.

HOLY WOW WHAT DUDE I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU
We’re all having “hard conversations” about racism, police brutality, and #BlackLivesMatter I hope.
You’ve probably noticed that detractors often use the same “racist talking points” in response. Here’s a researched and sourced guide to help you answer, for the times you may get stuck.
Feel free to save these images and share them!

Appreciation post for Tamari Jenkins (left) & Dr. Krishauna Hines-Gaither (right), who co-founded the African-American Linguistics network (AAL) in 2004!
For the last 16 years, these two women have provided resources for other African-American linguists and language enthusiasts — and they’re still going strong!
Academia as a whole is very white male-dominated and white-centric in its source material, so amplifying the voices of Black educators is something many of us still need to be doing. A lot of white linguists have made names for themselves through their studies of Black & Indigenous languages, but many Black academics work twice as hard to receive a fraction of that recognition.
If you’d like to learn more about Tamari & Dr. Krishauna’s work, you can visit their website here:

WAYS TO SUPPORT/BE AN ALLY
Here is a compilation of places to donate (IF you can, simply reblogging and sharing this can help) and petition to sign. I found these websites and organizations on twitter.
DONATIONS
THE MINNESOTA FREEDOM FUND: Donate to this to collect funds to pay jail bonds for the protesters who get arrested.
BLACK LIVES MATTER: An organization fighting for the BLM movement. Donate if you can.
BLACK VISIONS MN: an organization that is led by Black, Queer and Trans people. Donate if you can.
NAACP Legal Defense Fund: Fights for the overall equality fight. Donate if you can.
PETITIONS
Willie Simmons has spent 38 years in prison for a $9 robbery. He had two prior convictions similar to robbery that he served time for. He was prosecuted under the Alabama Habitual Offender law and was given a life sentence for his third strike - stealing 9 (NINE) dollars. Sign his petition.
Breonna Taylor was killed by police who were conducting an UNANNOUNCED drug raid, where they gave no request to enter. They bashed her door and entered, shooting her EIGHT times. They were in the WRONG HOUSE.
George Floyd was killed by a police officer who knelt on his neck and suffocated him to death, after George pleaded with the officer and told him he couldn’t breathe. The officer had pulled him from where he sat in his car on an alleged FORGERY. You can also text “FLOYD” to 55156
ARREST THE OFFICERS WHO KILLED GEORGE FLOYD: The main police officer who murdered George is being kept in PROTECTIVE CUSTODY. You probably have heard he was arrested, but this is NOT TRUE. He was placed under PROTECTIVE custody because of the riots and “threats” on his life.
If you know of ANY other organizations or petitions, PLEASE ADD TO THIS LIST. The fight for justice doesn’t end here, it will never end. Especially when the president of the United States calls white supremacists good people and protesters of a mans death THUGS. USE YOUR VOICE. NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE. FUCK COPS. FUCK “BLUE LIVES”. ALL BLACK LIVES MATTER!
the minnesota freedom fund is asking folks to donate to other organizations instead. the specific ones they listed are black visions, linked above, and these two:
northstar health collective, organized healthcare professionals working with anti-authoritarian groups
reclaim the block, a collective that aims to redistribute funding away from police and towards more community-oriented projects in minneapolis
these are the links i send to my facebook friends who keep running their mouths about “the protests hurting the community”
minnehaha food shelf & calvary church food shelf are both centered in the south minneapolis area where the riots started. the grocery stores in the area have been decimated, so food shelves and food insecurity charities need a lot of love right now.
northside funders group is a philanthropic group in the twin cities that’s using all its funds right now for helping local businesses
migizi is a native american media/history nonprofit whose office was destroyed in the riots
we love lake street is devoting funds specifically towards rebuilding the lake street area in south minneapolis
some more groups that could use your help
the healing justice foundation is a national nonprofit that’s specifically focusing on mental health resources for bipoc right now
ctul is a nonprofit focused on low-wage workers and workers rights in minnesota
mpd 150 is focused on policing and specifically trying to reroute the conversation from “we need to change police procedures” to “the police need structural reform”
the spiral collective is providing funds for supplies, medic kits, and other things that protesters will need on the ground
unicorn riot is a media collective that has had people on the ground filming every night in minneapolis
last but not least some more bail funds

Yo @staff where the hell is my profile picture?
Hm.
Hmm.
Called by the Grave
My sister got a new dog. She has a big dumb face and I already love her 🐕 ❤️
To celebrate a better blog, I’m reblogging this Scruffy Girl. Update: she is still good, but now better groomed.
Aaaand cleaned!
2011-2017 essentially never happened. Four important posts from that period made the cut and stayed, but the rest is so fresh and so clean.
Hoo boy, I’ve changed a lot as a person in the past few years. My outlook, my sense of humor, whether or not I was “horny on main,” where I’ve lived (several times). I think I’m happier with who I am now, or at least I don’t disgust myself as Past Me does - a part of me feels that deleting all evidence of that growth is a touch sacrilegious, but I’d really rather not dwell too much on who I was.
And for any of you interested in your own cleaning project, this really helped me out.
Where to?
So, it’s almost the end. Well, sort of.
While I toyed with the idea of starting a twitter to keep up with some of the people jumping ship there, I think it’s healthiest for me at this point to just drop social media altogether. I’ll probably stop in on here from time to time, but it’s unlikely to be the first stop in my browser anymore; furthermore, I’ll be purging a lot of my blog - been meaning to do that for ages anyway.
Dang, y’all, I’ve been on this blue hellsite for seven and a half years. Wild.
Since Blue Hellsite seems to be on its last legs...
Let me know if you want some other way to contact me, followers.
LIKE I SAID.
Why do Greek, Czech, Hungarian, and Swedish, with their 8 to 13 million speakers, have Google Translate support and robust Wikipedia presences, while languages the same size or larger, like Bhojpuri (51 million), Fula (24 million), Sylheti (11 million), Quechua (9 million), and Kirundi (9 million) languish in technological obscurity? Swedish, Greek, Hungarian, and Czech have a wealth of language resources, created one human at a time over centuries. They’re the languages of entire nation-states, with national TV and radio recordings that can be used as the foundation for text-to-speech models. Their speakers have the kind of disposable income that makes media companies translate popular novels and subtitle foreign movies and TV shows. They’re found in countries that tech companies imagine their customers might be living in or might at least visit on holiday, meaning it’s worth localizing interfaces and adding them as translation options. They have regularized spelling systems and dictionaries that can be rolled into spellcheckers and predictive text models. They have highly literate speakers with internet access who can contribute to projects like Wikipedia. (Speakers who can even, in the case of Swedish, create a bot to automatically make basic Wikipedia articles for rivers, mountains, and other natural features.) Language resources don’t just appear. People have to decide to create them, and those people need to be fed and watered and educated and housed and supported, whether that’s by governments or by companies or by the kind of personal wealth that lets individuals take on time-consuming intellectual hobbies. Creating parallel corpora and other language resources takes years, if it happens at all, and cost tens of millions of dollars per language.
