tumblr isn’t considered a social media because everyone on here is just talking to themselves
yeah i agree
What does the backend of this website look like that it enabels time travel

Nooo never kill yourself baby. Star Trek enters the public domain in 2062.
One year before the Vulcans arrive?
Well yeah, otherwise they'd be under copyright
Imagine First Contact where the Vulcans land and an IP lawyer immediately shows up to inform them that Amazon-Disney-Paramount-HBOMax (which will be all one company by then) owns their culture and language and they owe a bazillion dollars in fines.

"Vanderhorst had been under the influence of MDMA and three litres of vodka she had consumed on the night of the offence last September, her lawyer Michael Hill told the court."
three. liters.

I find it quite strange that even though Tumblr is known as The Neurodivergence Website, a lot of people on here seem to assume that they're the only neurodivergent person on here, and/or that they're the only person on here who understands The Neurodivergent Experience, so they're quite eager to assume that every post on here was written by someone who's neurotypical and needs to be lectured on The Neurodivergent Experience
underrated lancelot moment when he hears that tristan ditched iseult of ireland for iseult blanchemains and is like. how could tristan do this. how could tristan be so disloyal as to leave his girlfriend (his uncle’s wife) for his own lawfully wedded wife. disgusting. the friendship between us is over (lancelot has never met tristan). if i ever see him i’ll kick his ass
let me reiterate that lancelot has NEVER met tristan

I mean. To be fair, eternal devotion to a queen married to someone else IS pretty much Lancelot's Main Thing.

Drivers in Massachusetts for ride-hailing apps such as Uber and Lyft have become the first in the nation to certify a union.

Man imagine you spent years pushing Uber and Lyft in order to destroy the power of the taxi drivers union and now the drivers are unionized all over again.
people have this tendency to believe that fandom discourse exists because people in fandoms are Stupid Nerdy Losers, but in fact fandom discourse exists because anytime you get a group of more than 100 people together, they will start creating interpersonal bullshit. fandom is not special in this regard
There is sports discourse. There is yarn discourse. There is food discourse. There is academic discourse (dear sweet god is there academic discourse). If there are people out there collecting brass buttons specifically from 1921, they are going to have discourse about which buttons are trash and whether Person A cheated person B. To be human is to engage in pointless wankery sometimes.
you have to be careful reading too many things that are good/smart/well-written bc then you encounter something that isnt and you get confused like ? why didnt they just make this good ? were they stupid
“Because the truth is, tech doesn’t have an image problem. It doesn’t have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What’s wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn’t successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What’s wrong is that he’s trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that’s designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn’t that you haven’t told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them.”

Remember when joining fandom as a younger person meant lurking for a bit and figuring out the vibe and etiquette instead of coming in on day one and calling people weirdos for liking weirdo shit in the weirdo factory.
if your animal is lying on the floor, furniture etc, it’s important to take a picture of them. then, if they move or shift in any way, it’s important to take another picture. with this technique, you can take many pictures of your animal
notice how women never ever get the "what if they're neurodivergent" treatment ever. where were the "before you call that woman in distress a karen, consider she might be having an autistic meltdown!" posts.
Mid shed for our ( @hebrideansky and me) three sheep. I like how differently they go about it: Sparrow has taken off her shirt, Sedge is cooling her spine and has taken off her pants, Plover (4th photo at right) has maintained most of her dignity so far. She is a little over 4? years old, while Sparrow and Sedge are just over 1.
They are all EasyCares, a shedding breed developed in England Wales in the 1960s for minimal human intervention (easy lambing, no shearing, etc). The fleece sheds in small chunks but they won't casually let me roo pluck them and it's mostly not suitable for spinning. We have them as pets and to mow the grass.
(Thank you Heb for the corrections!)
One week update!
Front to back: Sedge, Sparrow, Plover.
Sedge has almost entirely shed, just a few tufty bits left. I like how you can see the bright white wool underneath, both on the edge of the unshed tuft and across her whole side where she must have dropped it all very recently.
Plover says hi.
Gonna make a sci-fi entity that is an AI supercomputer which consumes a planet's worth of resources in order to run, like it is the entire planet, all just for one singular being and its calculations, and it's also stupid as fuck.
Like people regularly pilgrimage out to try and get it to calculate something for them despite the fact that it's widely known that this machine is dumb as bricks. People just refuse to believe that something this big and impression and that takes so much energy to run can actually just be stupid. There are whole entire cults on other worlds that are dedicated to puzzling out the secret actually "smart" interpretations of it's conclusions, widespread disagreements about what the culture of its creators was (if they existed) and how they might impact things like the translation of data submitted or received, there have been historical teams who have worked night and day to understand the planet brain's language and workings and solve this riddle of how it's secretly smart, but prevailing wisdom remains that it just actually, factually gets everything wrong like 99% of the time.
Some people are convinced there's some fundamental flaw to how the planet brain works, and that if this flaw could be fixed then it would become an invaluable resource. So yet more resources and genius have been poured into figuring out what it could be and trying to secure the necessary grants and access privileges to attempt repairs. The few times anyone has actually gotten in to try and change the brain, though, the effect on its output has been negligible, and the brain has gradually reversed those changes and reset itself over time.
It's estimated that multiple billions of resources have been poured into figuring out the planet brain over the years. Experts have dedicated their lives to trying to understand it. Impassioned devotees have ruined themselves and their communities attempting to follow its advice. Even people who agree that it's stupid tend to agree that it should still be preserved and studied, even though trying to recreate some of its systems or apply the super advanced technology involved in its creation to other tech has yielded negative results (it makes everything else dumber too).
Basically it's the sci-fi equivalent of a money pit. Even aside from the energy the planet brain consumes as a planet itself (it's eventually going to spiral into the sun and be destroyed btw), intergalactic civilizations just keep pouring more and more into it because of the conviction that no one would waste THAT much on a stupid machine that did nothing. With the plot twist being that this is exactly what happened. The original aliens who invented it poured a ton of their energy into it out of the belief that a machine intelligence could figure out how to solve all their problems. Over time the investments in the project mounted, the sunk cost fallacy kicked in, and the planet brain even became their last hope of saving themselves from extinction because they had invested too much into it to allow it to fail. Now it exists as an accidental trap, ensnaring those civilizations that discover it and share similar enough cultural flaws as its creators, that they take up the cause of chucking more resources into it.
you're just mad because you're hungry and tired and your legs hurt and you head hurts and you're too hot and you have depression
I am doing whatever the opposite of locked in is .
I am locked out. I am in the parking lot. The rain is coming.
I should be doing more to appreciate the lack of marvel movies in today's popular culture. I once yearned for marvel movies to have this level of irrelevance. They used to feel almost ozymandian, like an empire that had no beginning and no end. and now tony stark iron man is naught but two vast and trunkless legs of stone.
