Professional dumbass & medical unprofessional, at your service

H3y h01 h3ll0!!!!
I am Birdo. I go by it/any pronouns, and tend to accidentally use we instead of I for reasons even we can't figure out. We are from the Netherlands! We are capable of speaking Dutch, English, Chinese and enough Latin to translate most things. Our sona is a goat. Yeah that probably doesn't make sense with our name... Also we swear a lot and uncontrollably so uh if you're gonna berate me for that kindly fuck off I hope ya get stuck in a timeloop ^ω^
This being our main blog, we will occasionally vent on here. To not see them, block the tag 'birdo panics'.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We post art, repost things that are worthy of this wretched curse and do... Other things. I guess. This blog is a safe space for any and all people! If you block the birdo panics tag! The Holy Tree welcomes all :}
We love biology and astrophysics! That shit keeps me alive *(^_^)* Also specialized in spotting AI generated content and bots sooo... If you don't know if someone's a bot or not... Oh and I have a weird thing for the human psyche. Mental things interest me.
We are a tree-ist. Tree-ism is a satirical religion me and my friends made centered around a tree in our neighborhood. Don't hurt trees comrades they're our friends
Multi-fandom. You shall find out which eventually.
Scopophobic but is fascinated by eyes what can one dooooooo.
Probably autistic. Can't get diagnosed because my parents are ableist as shit, especially towards neurodivergence, though!!1!!1!!
We will and have used the tags very extremely liberally.
Have our list of tags:
birdo yaps - I say literally anything
birdo answers - Ask answered
a treasure! or any variation - To add to my hoard
one of my most treasured - Special treasure posts
absolute epic sauce - peak art has hit the dash

If you want to force me to give you old clips of me singing, here.
We have a watermark now. Yeah. Yay yippee my art will be a bit harder to steal now.
Also, if you're looking for our art specifically, all of it is archived on my blog @sl33py-b1rd0s-4rtsnstuff
I don't do commissions. Yet. Might in the future, but the moment I have to deal with deadlines my will to art just straight up wilts and dies, not to mention that we're ATROCIOUS at staying professional when I actually have to. You can give me suggestions though, go crazy as long as it ain't NSFW(one, minor, two, I can't)

We have a Strawpage now. Flash warning!

unironically i think we need to bring back computer labs because APPARENTLY some people WERENT taught basic computer literacy and internet safety in school
things about computers/the internet i think kids should be formally taught in schools because theyre important to know and the amount of soon to be grown adults i know who know NOTHING about any of these is quite frankly almost all of them (and resources to learn if you dont know these things, because its never to late to get better with computers)
how to troubleshoot by yourself when you have a technical problem
what common file types are
some very basics on how to use ""developer tools"" on your computer (because i cant think of a better way to refer to them) like task manager and command prompt (and their mac equivalents, terminal and activity monitor ofc)
how to read and understand a privacy policy and what your personal data is, as well as what it being collected actually means and steps you can take to keep it private
how to understand terms of service
(hey. if you have trouble with reading legalese and worry about being able to understand these policies anyways, here's a site that gives basic summaries of privacy policies and ToS)
what a cookie actually is
internet privacy and your digital footprint!! seriously i dont know why we stopped teaching people that they shouldnt be putting their entire real identity online in a world where your online actions can ruin you irl
basic safety measures like antivirus software (and why you should use it or if the built in one on windows or mac is enough for you) and backing up your computer (also a mac guide)
common keyboard shortcuts (and on mac)
as an additional note: things i think everyone should know on computers and the internet but schools may bit hesitant to teach about for whatever moral/legal standards schools pretend to operate on
vpns and adblockers! (btw for most of these where you can pay for things im purposefully not recommending any specific software but seriously just use ublock origin for an adblocker)
how to not get a virus while pirating something
what a temporary email is and when to use one
red flags that you shouldn't trust a website (and how to quickly check the security of a site)
what javascript on a website does and how to disable it to get around paywalls
ok one last addition! if you want to take it one level higher, i think learning the very basics of at least one programming language is good for people. it makes computers less scary and it makes you feel very cool, and a lot of people get discouraged about it because it seems overly complicated and hard to learn outside a formal classroom setting, so heres some resources for learning the very basics of python (because i consider it the easiest language to learn and knowing one language will make it easier to learn others)
an online compiler so you dont need to download anything or worry about running code directly on your computer if that makes you nervous
a basic video guide to introduce you to python and walk you through beginner steps
a guide to some syntax and commands you should know (this was literally my lifeline in my first CS class)
some performance tasks to give you things to code to practice and assess yourself
another underappreciated tumblr feature that you dont get on other sites is the queue. i love it when something i thought was funny six months ago and then forgot about a week later crawlts its way out of the processing vortex and i get to see it all over again.
why do bad things keep happening to archivists in stories. im not studying so that i can end the world or be sent off with my memories erased or succumb to any number of awful terrible fates i just want to sort paper. they should write stories about nice things happening to archivists like them getting paid or having decent workplaces
the role of the person in the passenger seat is not only navigator but secretary as well. you have to type up the drivers messages to random ladies on facebook about cbd cream & google whether that billy joel song was the theme song for that show or not
I am not asking for a lot of money, I only need 70 euros to buy a medicine called Depalept to treat muscle spasms for my brother samer.

hey, i want to make sure you’re aware of something important: genuinelyelasticpower is a documented scammer. they’ve been caught running this exact scam under multiple identities for years.
in this post another tumblr account, timinah9, is documented running this scam back in February of 2024, and linking to a paypal account under the name Timina Ibrahim: https://www.tumblr.com/kyra45/741259579611136000/hey-theres-a-blog-called-timinah9-thats-sent-me
in this post another tumblr account, happilyjoyfulnut, is documented running this scam and linking to a paypal account under the name Esta Odhiambo: https://www.tumblr.com/slenbee/775489029865177088/happilyjoyfulnut-esta-odhiambo
for more examples, here is an archive of another tumblr account, zoneoftreatys, running this scam and linking to a paypal account under the name Elizabeth Kegocha: https://archive.ph/nO9WN
here is zoneoftreatys again, but this time linking to a paypal account under the name Hyvonne Bosibori: https://archive.ph/LvwjF
this is an archive of another tumblr account, mysteriousmartyrjinx, running a completely different scam but linking to that same exact Hyvonne Bosibori paypal account: https://archive.ph/pYNOL
here is an archive of another tumblr account, chaoticfulcrumseed, running this scam and linking to a paypal account under the name Paspika Habuba: https://archive.ph/IxuXH
this is an archive of another tumblr account, noisyfrontiertraveler, running another completely different scam but linking to that same exact Paspika Habuba paypal account: https://archive.ph/CR3oP
are you able to delete their scam from your blog, or clearly label it as a scam so it doesn't spread to others? remember you can use the tumblr search box to search the username/paypal account name/text used by people asking for money to check if they’ve been proven to be a scammer
I accidentally queued that post instead of deleting it, and I couldn't find it in the sea of posts anymore... apologies.
