Can someone tell me how to life?

[charlataninred]

Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.

Might I add:

The defeat of the wizard who made people choose how they’d be to be executed

The woman who raised the changeling alongside her biological child

The human who died of radiation poisoning after repairing the spaceship

[eater-of-hopes-and-dreams]

The adventures of a space roomba

Look whom I found at pride today

[laudnumdrinker]

I really resent how we spent two seasons and a book learning all about how Aziraphale and Crowley became more humanlike than any other angel and demon in history because of how they lived and loved and suffered alongside humans, only for the finale to suggest that they're not people enough to deserve to live as they are. I thought the whole point was that their kind can be just as nuanced as humans, and that heaven and hell aren't the true arbiters of good and evil– PEOPLE are. Angels and demons are victims just as much as humans in their system. It's devastating to me that their whole species was genocided out of existence forever. They deserved a chance to live.

[tweedfeather]

Yes! I find it incredibly disturbing that in choosing to sacrifice themselves to create a world where Heaven and Hell no longer exist, Crowley and Aziraphale also decided to destroy every other angel and demon along with them.

Remember that Crowley and Aziraphale had no idea any of them would be reincarnated. Two guys just decided on behalf of their entire species that they were all irredeemable and should be wiped out. No opportunities for restorative justice or growth here. Death penalty for everyone involved in the system!

Even the lowest-ranked, most abused cogs in the wheels of that system like Muriel and Eric.

Muriel was a low-ranking angel who got the opportunity to experience Earth, which they found “amazing!” They learned to love books and seemed eager to learn more about humanity and life on Earth. They were kind to demons like Crowley and Eric. During his time as an archangel, Aziraphale came to trust Muriel and rely on their sweet, helpful spirit — he even said in the finale that he “needed” Muriel. All that growth is gone now.

Eric the Disposable Demon was constantly abused and murdered over and over again, but they still managed to find joy in avocado jokes. They possessed a lot of knowledge about many things even if it wasn’t always respected. In the finale, they shared a fleeting connection with a kind angel. Who knows what they could have become. We’ll never know.

And Gabriel and Beelzebub —both as highly ranked as an angel/demon could get in their world, deeply invested in the system, and previously committed to upholding it — fell in love and decided to abandon their destinies and plans for Armageddon. All on their own, they came to the same conclusion as Aziraphale and Crowley.

Aziraphale and Crowley saw this kind of change in other angels and demons. And apparently decided none of them were worth fighting for. It’s so bleak and cruel.

And it’s a choice that doesn’t seem true to their characters at all. At the end of the day, I have a hard time imagining that the angel who took in his abusive boss, clothed him, and made him hot chocolate would agree to obliterate all other angels because they were irredeemable.

actually fucking disgusting that glasses cost any money like if you actually think about it for more than a few seconds it is so unconscionably inhumane. this goes for things like insulin and mobility aids and hearing aids too ofc but fuck man, fucking glasses? the thing you need to fucking see? its genuinely sickening and inhumanly evil that those cost ANYTHING.

we gotta get back to torrent distribution, i just watched someone eat eight grand in bandwidth charges because they ran a direct-download piracy site with local file hosting through cloudflare. torrents were invented literally for this exact reason

[estro-boi]

torrents work like this

i have a file or folder on my pc that i want to share with other people. let's call it gayshit.mp3

unfortunately gayshit.mp3 is 750mb and im not paying for discord nitro so i need another way to send it

i put it into qbittorrent and it makes a torrent file. this is essentially a very small file that points to gayshit.mp3 so other computers can find it. kinda like a treasure map

i send this tiny file to my friend, who loads it into qbittorrent. their computer takes a moment to find mine over the vast expanse of cyberspace and then (as long as my pc is running and the file is still where it should be), it gets copied from my hard drive to theirs

this is the cool part: if somebody else loads that tiny file, they can download it from both of us. if i'm offline but my friend is on, the third person can still get it. this also means that if two people have separate halves of the file, they can download the other half from each other. as long as some combination of people have the pieces between them, they can all have the whole thing.

crucially this does not require a server!!! you can just upload the file to a few people and as long as they keep it, it's still accessible. as long as somebody, somewhere is still connected, it's available forever. the only way it goes away is if everybody disconnects from it.

please learn to torrent

happy pride month to those in the closet. to those who went back into the closet. to those who have unsupportive families, friends and relationships. those who were bullied and harassed because of their identity. those who were killed because of who they truly were and loved.

you are loved and appreciated.
