Sooo some time ago I got so obsessed with Victor Gideon (idk if you noticed...) that I just had to create a post WWI AU version of him and make my own story with OC character and some 1920's medical malpractice. I finished writing the outline and drawing the prologue and now it has nothing to do with the canon at all.

So... here. Just read it.

if your website doesn't have a reject all button for cookies then i fucking hate you

[ubercharge]

if your website's cookie popup only allows accept all and edit cookies and i have to click the edit button to reject your cookies then i fucking hate you

[oediex]

I recommend Consent-O-Matic, a free and open-source browser extension that automatically completes cookie pop-ups based on your preferences (including denying them all).

It works on both my MacBook and iPhone.

It doesn't work on all website, but it does work on most. And when it doesn't work on a website, you can notify them.

From the website:

Nearly all websites use tracking technologies to collect data about you. By law, they often need your permission, which is why many websites have “consent pop-ups”. However, 90% of these pop-ups use so-called “dark patterns”, which are designed to make it very difficult to say no, but very easy to say yes. Although using dark patterns is illegal, the laws are not enforced enough, so many websites get away with it.   Consent-O-Matic is a browser extension that recognizes CMP (Consent Management Provider) pop-ups that have become ubiquitous on the web and automatically fills them out based on your preferences – even if you meet a dark pattern design. Sometimes a website might not use standard categories, and in that case, Consent-O-Matic will always try to submit the most privacy preserving settings.

Ironically, in order to function, this extension also requires permission to read everything on the webpages you visit, including your passwords and credit card details and all open tabs. It’s damned if you do and damned if you don’t at this point.

[oediex]

You might want to do a bit more reading before you reblog something like that with scaremongering information, because this is addressed on the website that I linked.

The Consent-O-Matic extension does not process any personal data. The only data that Consent-O-Matic stores (on your computer) are: - Your settings - A count of pop-ups interacted with - A count of clicks saved To delete all this data, simply uninstall the browser extension. To delete the counts of pop-ups and clicks without uninstalling, go to the About page in the extension settings and click the Clear button. When you install Consent-O-Matic, you will see a pop-up from your browser that says it can "access your data for all websites" (or something similar depending on which browser you use). You get this warning because Consent-O-Matic needs access to the code of the website you're visiting to detect if there are any consent pop-ups and interact with them. We do not collect any data about the website you're visiting or what you do on the website: this warning is about what the extension has permission to do from the browser, not what it actually does. The only time we will know which website you visit is when you report to us that the extension is not working on a particular page by clicking on the Let us know! button in the settings. In that case we receive a message on our server with the URL, which we store and look at to improve our coverage. The list of URLs might also be shared with other developers in the open-source community to further improve the extension. As part of how the web works, we will also receive your IP address when you send this URL, but we do not access or store this data. We process the IP on the basis of legitimate interest (i.e., we can't not receive it when you report a website).

(my emphasis)

In other words, this is a warning that they cannot avoid because of how the extension works, but it does not reflect the reality of what the extension does.

You can either believe that, or not. Up to you. Again, this is an open-source extension, meaning the code is freely available on GitHub, also linked on the website. If the extension really did all those things, this would have been public knowledge.

My favorite ‘Hannibal’ lines from the original script that didn’t make it in the film

1: Crawford: (to Clarice) “He likes you, Starling. Seven years gone, not a trace, and he writes to you. You know what that means.” (2000 Draft Revision, pg. 81)

2: Crawford: (to Clarice) “The stalker who says he likes you is far more dangerous than the one who says he wants to kill you.” (2000 Draft Revision, pg. 81)

3: Lecter: (to Clarice) “Will you stay with me in my prison cell? Hmmm? I suppose it wouldn’t be that much worse than yours.” (2000 Draft Revision, pg. 98)

4: Lecter (to Clarice): “Don’t you want to harm those who have forced you to consider it? I know you never would, but wouldn’t you like to? Wouldn’t it feel good? It’s all right to admit it. It’s perfectly natural. To want to taste the enemy.” (2000 Draft Revision, Pg. 99)

5: Lecter: (to Paul Krendler) “I assure you, though, you’ll love the second course, that is if I can serve it before Clarice bashes my head in.” (2000 Draft Revision, pg. 115)

6: Lecter: (to Clarice) “No. I think a new life lies before you. A better life. With me? Hmmm, there’s a thought.” (2000 Draft Revision, pg. 117)

7: Lecter: (to Clarice) “I came halfway around the world just to watch you run in the woods. Run with me, Clarice.” (2000 Draft Revision, pg. 117)

8: Lecter: (to Clarice) “That’s my girl. If you hadn’t tried, I would have killed you… But don’t try again…I mean it.” (2000 Draft Revision, pg. 119)

9: Lecter: (to Clarice) “Oh, Clarice, you are the honey in the lion. In times to come, whenever you see yourself naked, whenever you see the scar- the quality of the stitching - you’ll remember this moment - and your lips will burn.” (2000 Draft Revision, pg. 119)

10: Crawford: (to Clarice regarding her scar) “You don’t need to hide it. Your doctor did a nice job. You can hardly see it-.” (2000 Draft Revision, pg. 120)

[silkysong]

if the native backup option on tumblr is extremely slow or doesnt work for you (for example, you have a large amounts of posts), i do wholeheartedly recommend doing it using the python method that utilizes the tumblr-utils (how to install it properly is explained in detail here)

not only its a much faster method to do what the native backup does (with the exception of archiving private dms), but you can backup other blogs as well, not just yours.

and in the very real possibility that tumblr will go down in the foreseeable future, the amount of information and resources lost will be irrepairable.

back up your blog, back up your friends blogs if they dont have the means to do it easily, back up resource blogs and archives and anything that could become true lost media

its better to be safe than sorry, even if nothing happens and this website keeps going as usual for the next 10 years or whatever. archive archive archive

THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS (1991)

For an instant, Starling didn't realize Chilton was behind her. Then he took her elbow. She took it back. Officer Pembry and his big partner were with Chilton. "In the elevator," Chilton said. His face was mottled red. "Did you know Dr. Chilton has no medical degree?" Dr. Lecter said. "Please bear that in mind later on."

Neil Hilborn, “For Henry, Who Has Just Died”, The Future

[gnomebud]

[image descriptions: text that reads:

“For Henry, Who Has Just Gone

Henry was my pet rat, and he died last night in my hands. He was three years old, which is way longer than

an albino rat is supposed to live. To be honest, he wasn’t a very smart animal, but he was so sweet that now I wonder

if intelligence has anything to do with leading a good life. He had been sick for a few months, and every twelve hours

I had to apply antiseptic and lotion to both his back feet. By the end they didn’t really work anymore,

so he would just drag his feet behind him in a way so cute and sad that I started calling him my little sea lion. When he died it was, somehow,

a surprise: you would think that when your rat is older than older than dirt and has been sick for months you’d be sort of prepared: after I had laid out the towel

and mixed the solution, I picked him up and noticed his breathing was s slow. I lay down with him

on the towel, the towel where we’d spent the last few months, where I think we finally, really, completely loved each other,

not like humans do: humans always want something from you and he and I would rather just be together than apart,

and I pulled him toward me, and he chittered in that way that always meant he was wind coming in after a rain, his head fell forward, and there was so much less

light in the room. The lamp was so far away, like the light of a house to which there is no road. I know, he was just a rat. So many

just like him, all white, red eyes, die every day and only one or two people in white coats are even there to see it.

He was all in white, he was always there to see me. When I would wake from a nightmare, so many nightmares, I would turn on the light

and there he was, holding on, a constant companion to a prisoner, the prison being the apartment, the world being inside his cage. Once I was crying

in bed because of who knows why, and he sat beside my face and licked my tears away. I had a rat once, named Henry. Named Buddy. Named Mr. Big

Mouse. Named proof that something could need me and still love me. Named please can I have some of your apple? Or I know

you’re sad but I’m hungry. Don’t go; if you go I won’t survive: a child reaches for her father; a couple, buried in ash, dies holding each other;

a man and a woman in an office, crying slightly, sign sheets of paper; sparrows fall out of the sky together. Some day I’m going to have a child. She’s going to have

eyes like mine and such small hands. Just like she’ll need me alive then, she needs me alive now; I can’t say goodbye before I’ve had a chance

to say hello. I don’t stare off bridges anymore. I don’t count out little blue exit signs and even today, with Henry buried under a tree, a tree somewhere so far away

it feels like someone else buried him using my body, today I came home and only wanted to sleep for twenty minutes instead of always. Something needed

me once, and I know something will need me again. One day I’m going to have a daughter. She’s going to sleep through the night

sometimes. She is a light on a rock at the edge of a lonely see. You see that light out there? That’s where I’m headed. That’s home.”
