Truly Truly Outrageous

TJ|40s|USA. Any pronouns except it. BLM. A multi fandom blog. Supernatural saturated. I'm starlightoffandoms on ao3 and pretty much everywhere or a variation of it. I'm super friendly but kind of not great at keeping in touch. Thanks ADHD. Reliable tags are kitties (felines), happy tag (things that make me smile), tora (tiger related stuff), tag thingy/tag games (when I participate in tag games), tj writes fanfic, fic rec, write this way (writing stuff), and personal/just tj things. Tips totally appreciated https://ko-fi.com/tjstarlight.

Fics that are inspired by my mild obsession with modern country music.

Wow, are you sure that adds anything useful?

[dzamie]

I’m not here to be useful, I’m here for my own entertainment. Part of that is thinking about furry porn.

They were opened in AUGUST 2001. Oh my god. That's both hilarious and tragic.

Honestly, at this point, if you're still bitching about AI but not moving to open-source and nonprofit software/tech/services, you deserve it. Shut up or stop using it. Those of us who've put in the effort to switch to non-evil tech are sick of the purposeless whining.

[hydrachea]

I've been nicely letting everyone suggest open source on this post because it might genuinely be useful to someone but because you've decided to be a condescending little bastard- this might be a hard concept to grasp, but some of us actually have jobs. Some of those jobs also provide us with computers equipped with an OS we have zero say over, to use software we also have zero say over. Kindly get off your high horse and suck my dick.

[sage-nebula]

As someone who has worked in IT for the past 17 years, I'd also like to say that there is often a higher barrier of entry for open-source software / operating systems when it comes to technical knowledge and ability, and those who can't jump that barrier still deserve to not have AI programs installed on their devices without their knowledge or consent. Someone who struggles with Windows is not going to be able to just hop into Linux, especially when they probably have other things going on in their lives and don't have the time to sit down and learn a brand new operating system. Someone who doesn't even recognize that there are different browsers, much less open-source ones that aren't Chromium forks, isn't going to be able to seek out one they can both a.) safely download, b.) install, and c.) use instead of the shortcut they know as The Internet.

And sure, you can dismiss these people as lazy, as stupid, as being elderly and so who cares. But from my 17 years of experience, I can tell you that technical instinct and ability varies widely across the entire adult spectrum. And I can also tell you that people have different strengths, and that just because someone isn't good with computers doesn't mean they aren't smart as hell.

And I can also say, again, that it really doesn't matter.

Companies like Microsoft and Google sneaking AI software into devices and software without the consent of those using the software or devices is wrong. It's invasive and raises major security concerns. People should not have to learn entirely new operating systems to escape this nonsense. It's an unreasonable expectation, and it fails to hold companies like Microsoft and Google accountable for their malicious behavior.

This dog I’m sitting grabbed an American flag out of someone’s front yard, shook it in his mouth like it was a prey animal, then carried it 10 feet before shitting on it

[agayjewishwerewolf]

To be clear I have never been more proud of anyone or anything

Destiel Parallels

Hey, @margarittet these are a load of the parallels I could find.

[margarittet]

Okay, narrative parallels are one thing, but some of these visuals are just shameless. But can you imagine the production process of this show?

Director: “Hey, Jensen, I need you to lick your lips while staring into Misha’s eyes.” Jensen: “Okay, but why?” Director: “Reasons.”

Feel free to add more!

[tinkdw]

the most blatant one from @charlie-minion :

I love that this is just a small snapshot, meanwhile some of these are from their own show, other CW shows or shows SPN often gets compared to and gets a load of storylines from and one even directed by Jensen himself…

*Tink stares into the camera*

[gillianaunofficial]

Have some more, guys.

Let’s not forget prom-queen-makeover!Castiel:

[lazarrusrising]

Dean should have done more of those elder siblingisms like each time Sam disagrees with him he should have whipped out the "well I don't have to listen to a guy we found as a baby in a dumpster behind a Denny's in Wisconsin" or "that's rich coming from someone who was a toad until that witch made you a real boy" and grown ass man Sam would immediately revert to ten year old Sam and be like "THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN"

[writingdose]

the fic you write doesn’t have to be a masterpiece, it just has to be the story you want to explore for yourself and your own enjoyment
