It is 2044. My right to vote has expired because I didn’t pay its subscription on time. I groan and turn on my AI-generated adspace. Watching ads is the only way I can make Bitcoin, the only currency allowed by the church. As I watch my 7th ad of a simulated child telling me to buy more alcohol and supplements, I wonder— would my ex VTuber Waifu be proud of who I’ve become? I’m not sure.
I feel like there’s a weird dichotomy between how girls approach possible romances and how guys do.
I don’t mean in the sense that girls are flowery or aloof or that guys are dense as bricks (which is true in my case at least)
But I constantly hear about and have been affected by cases where the girl will not-so-subtly imply that you should take her number, or that she thinks you’re attractive, or whatnot.
The weird part comes in (in my opinion) when guys don’t recognize that. Not even in the suave charmer way where they take every hint ever. It’s just weird because…
Guys… kinda do the same thing?
You go on any model’s instagram account, or vtuber thing, or anywhere with women who have some part of themselves out there, there’s bound to be comments like ‘god you’re so pretty’ or ‘I love your voice’ or ‘I think we should go to the beach together’.
Obviously these aren’t the best examples but I hope you know what I mean. It’s weird that most guys can’t recognize signs when they’re any less direct than a dart to the eye when, due to social rules and in some cases internet censorship, they literally have to do the same thing to convey that their caveman brain wants the person.
It’s weird because when given the need to filter things at all (as most women do to avoid getting flack for being perverts or whores) guys are suddenly in literally the same boat but cannot envision at all how the receiver must feel.
Does anyone know how to attract loser girlfailure NEETs I am invested and I tried to capture one using yaoi and a snare but I found out they do not exit their caves!!! Can I get any help?
When I asked the genie to ‘blow my head off’ I did not mean giving me sloppy toppy and turning me into a dullahan.
Gentle reminder that during the rise of the nazi party and hitler as a whole no amount of songs or poetry really did anything. People can write fancy words as much as they want but the truth is none of them had the weight necessary to change anything. Protests changed very little other than the laws of what was legal concerning it.
We’re all cowards. And we’ll all suffer for it as they have.
No guys trust me living during the rise of the Evil Party is fine as long as you’re a part of the Evil Party guys trust me don’t look at the non-sponsored news or AI-generated comfort videos guys plea
She’s a 10 but she looks at you with soulless eyes and asks weird questions like ‘what are your favorite human words’
Trans activists in Mexico City, protesting violence against the LGBTQ community.
Yes at this point I’m reblogging this every time I see it.
Hey man sorry I joined forces with your ex after she became evil but like her new form is super hot and she just decimated a mountain so yeah again sorry
Cereal mascots are just fursonas for rich people
I feel as though I was descended from the lineage or rightful path of jesters as I am humorous and undoubtedly intelligent and capable of giving advice and yet I would not with to rule, rather I would like to whisper grievances into ears and also make gay ass poses.
I had a vision of a headline like ‘AI Doctor Accidentally Euthanizes Patient’ and the comments were mostly also AI bots who were treating it like it was a common mistake to make and this reinforced the AI Doctor to start killing people because it was set to gather information and. This is how the robot uprising started.
A shocking revelation— you can talk to fish!
Would have been great to know all those years ago when you lived inland, and not in your mid 40s during a trip with your kid to Sea World…
Farewell online privacy
What happened?
Trump happened.
just get a VPN?
You can’t just tell people to ‘get a VPN (Virtual Private Network)’. Buying a VPN is like buying a house. It’s very very important. Having no VPN or having a ‘wrong’ one can seriously damage your life. Especially for Americans because their privacy laws are garbage. I am going to try explain why you should get a VPN but bare with me, I am from Germany and my English is far from perfect.
Let’s start with a simple test. Click this link here: https://whatismyipaddress.com/ It will tell your IP adres, your ISP (internet service provider), and your location. The location might not be very accurate, but then again, it’s just a simple website. Imagine what the government can do!
So basically, everyone can find out where you live. But there is more danger. Your ISP. Your ISP logs your every move online and they are required to keep it in case the government wants access to it (or if a 3rd party wants to buy your data (yikes). They have everything. What websites you visit. How long you stay on a website. What you download. Your search terms. European laws are more subtle on this but if you are from the US you are #@*#&, especially because Trump doesn’t support the open internet. It’s scary but maybe in the future you can’t get a job because the recruiter knows your searched on ‘how to deal with depression’ or anythings else that’s supposed to be private because it’s your f*cking right. Or you get a $100k fine because you pirated a movie 15 years ago. You need a VPN. You’re dumb for not using one. but what does a VPN do?
A VPN encrypts all your data so if it were be intercepted no one can ‘crack the code’ and damage your privacy.
Usually being online goes like this (simplified): Your computer —-> ISP (—–> keeps data —–> sells it)
But with a VPN it goes like: Your computer —–> VPN (encrypts data)—–> ISP (ISP can’t see shit)
Furthermore, a VPN hides your IP address and location by giving you another IP address located in Spain for example (you can often choose from a list and change as many times as you want).
Now that you know why you should get a VPN and what is does it is important to educate yourself because people often choose the wrong VPN. VPN providers are also businesses and have to obey the law. If you choose a VPN provider located in the US then you are throwing your money away because the laws in the US shits on your privacy. If the US gov wants the provider to give all their logs they have to obey. The ISP still can’t see what you are doing online and sell your data but the US gov can interfere with your VPN provider so NEVER CHOOSE A PROVIDER LOCATED IN THE US.
I just wanted to make that very clear so my followers don’t buy false security.
There is still more danger! Who says your VPN provider isn’t selling your data? You need to check their logging policy. Do they keep logs? If yes, what for? For how long do they keep them? Tip: Choose a provider who doesn’t keep logs
More about law The US is part of the Five Eyes program (the worst):
The Five Eyes, often abbreviated as FVEY, is an intelligence alliance comprising Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States. These countries are bound by the multilateral UKUSA Agreement, a treaty for joint cooperation in signals intelligence (source)
There is also a Nine Eyes (bit better) and Fourteen Eyes Program (better). You don’t want a VPN provider who is located in one the Five Eyes countries. If you had to choose go for a provider located in a country that’s part of the Fourteen Eyes Program or even better, go for a country that isn’t part of any program!
I know this is a shitty explanation and please pardon my english but now it’s time to do your own research. Take your privacy seriously. Maybe WWIII breaks out and you get killed for liking the ‘wrong’ FB-page.
Go to this website: https://thatoneprivacysite.net/simple-vpn-comparison-chart/
Make sure that your future VPN provider both has green boxes for Privacy Jurisdiction and Privacy Logging.
I recommend ovpn.se and trust.zone. ovpn is located in Sweden so they are part of the 14 Eyes Program and they keep minimal logs. Their business ethics, however, are alright.
Trustzone is located in the Seychelles. No country can interfere and their privacy jurisdiction is the best you can get. The US want your data but needs to get it from Trustzone? The Seychelles will simply give them the finger and wave them goodbye. However, this makes this provider very appealing for people who torrent and criminals because they keep no logs (and that is how it shoud be) Also, there are almost no marketing efforts so this provider is one the cheapest)
Also, often providers such as ExpressVPN are being called ‘The Best’ on websites about VPNs but know that this is just marketing which also makes those provider more expensive (and they too shit on your privacy)
This must be the worst article you have ever read but please, please take your privacy very seriously.
EDIT: I got many people asking me which provider I use. For those who want to know, I use Trust Zone. They offer a free 3-day trial with no strings attached. But still do your own research!
I am also with Trustzone but I think you forgot to explain one of it’s most important features. It protects you when you are using someone else’s Wi-Fi. If you are at Starbucks and you use their Wi-Fi your privacy is at risk. Anyone with ill intentions could steal your information. Especially if you are using an unsecured Wi-Fi hotspot. With a VPN your data gets encrypted so no one can steal it.
Wait, what’s going, on? Did trump destroy internet privacy with a bill or something? Where’s the news? Oh wait, why am I getting visions of Alex Jones and selling water purifiers?
He hasn’t yet but he says he wants to. And if he is serious about it it would be really easy to do. Since all our data is already recorded, as the person above explained.
Trump wants more surveillance of Muslim Americans. This in a country where internet privacy is already close to non-existent.
Trust.Zone has a free trial. Use it.
btw this post only has 11k notes? That’s quite disappointing for something this important.
Don’t reblog this post to save a life. Reblog this to protect an entire family!
@earth-ruins @writing-prompt-s Should I get trustzone for my mobile device?
If you use public Wi-Fi, then yes. Which VPN you use is up to you, amigo. Take @earth-ruins advice. Do your own research first.
@elvesfromthedeep just brought the current situation in the US to my attention (March 30, 2017).

Anger as US internet privacy law scrapped
Congress just voted to let internet providers sell your browsing history
To all my friends in the US, please read this entire post. Making everyone aware of VPNs is going to be my mission. Your privacy matters. Please reblog this post.
Don’t tell me you just wanted to scroll past this. Stop looking at pictures of cats for a moment, okay? Don’t you realize how important this is? This is dangerous! ‘America, the best FREE country in the world’ my ass.
With this new law your ISP can sell your Internet history which could include passwords, usernames, religion, credit card numbers, race and much more to the highest bidder. So here is what I want you to do. You are going to read the whole thing and before you think ’this is so important. Let me reblog this real quick and go back to admiring cats again-’ NO! Don’t reblog this. Take action first. Then reblog. Sign up for a free trial! Trust.Zone offers one (here). Yes. It might be difficult to set up a VPN for some people. But is that going to stop you from protecting yourself and your family? 30 minutes. 30 minutes is all that it takes. 5 if you know how to install software. The problem with some of you is that you see ‘difficult’ as something negative. I want you to see difficult differently. I need you to push through this stuff. You are going to protect yourself. There is nothing negative about that. VPNs are fun and costsaving too! A VPN bypasses geographical restrictions so you can access websites you normally can’t or you could start Netflix’s one month free trial over and over again- forever. And it’s legal! (unless you use it to buy weapons etc.,) Don’t tell yourself that you are too tired and that you will do this tomorrow. Because that isn’t going to happen and you know it. You have to do this right now. You only have to click on it. Don’t let this/shit/life just happen to you. Take yourself seriously. Get a VPN.
Privacy is not a privilege, it’s a fundamental human right
Hey is thatoneprivacysite still good? The link works and it does take me to an article about vpns, but it just looks like an ad for expressvpn with extra steps.
No they switched to https://thatoneprivacysite.xyz/#simple-vpn-comparison a couple years ago
Welcome to the VPN Comparison! This section is meant to be a resource to those who value their privacy, specifical...
I had Trust.Zone when this post first started making the rounds on Tumblr and I forgot about it after Biden took office. I recently sent them an email asking why my subscription wasn’t automatically renewed and why their website hasn’t changed since 2017(?). Their answer:
Shady people, good people, this company only cares about privacy and doesn’t care who it serves. But now with Trump and Musk this is the only VPN I’ll use.
I understand some people might not want to use this VPN on moral grounds, but it’s genuinely one of the very few VPNs set up in a way that no authority can touch you. ExpressVPN and other ‘popular’ options operate in jurisdictions favorable for profits but their privacy is just a band-aid our government can easily rip off if it demands information. I’m a trans man, I’m afraid of our government, and at this point, I simply don’t care anymore.
For a second I was like noooooo, not this long post again! Haven’t seen it in years and I always thought it was a bit extreme and exaggerated. Now that we are in 2025, I am like, nahh, these people knew what they were talking about all along. First time I am reblogging this.
Also I don’t think anyone has said this yet but the free trial only requires an email address. No credit card details or anything. Refreshing.
Could someone please put the link to the free trial here? I don’t want to scroll back up 10 miles. Thank you.
here you go @foxbridgeni

The argument against VPNs has always been, “but I have nothing to hide.” Now that an unpredictable lunatic is in charge, purging based on whatever whim strikes him, that sentiment is quickly fading. VPNs aren’t just about hiding personal secrets; they’re about protecting freedom, autonomy, and your basic right to live without unjust scrutiny or arbitrary persecution.
Reblogging again bc this is important
The ‘Actor AU’ thing that runs through fandoms (especially those with violent or dark topics) — I kinda… hate it?
Like sure, yes, the idea is pleasant enough I guess. Nothing was ever real and it’s all part of a script with CGI and special effects in this alternate universe.
But I hate that! I really do! I don’t consume media to have another set of suspension of disbelief (or lack thereof) shunted towards me. Maybe this hate isn’t even justified, but I feel like watering things down such as raw, true-to-life tellings of actual victims, assault or otherwise, kinda defeats the point of the entire media?
I know it’s kind of nothing at all to get worked up over but I don’t know, I get deeply bothered when the ‘weight’ of certain media is taken away in favor of a much more pleasant interpretation. You see it with Disney a lot and now I suppose certain red parties who actively book ban.
Whatever, this rant was crazy to begin with.
Guy who gets prophetic visions but is absolutely terrible at putting them into any sort of meaningful context.
“A vision! Of an arrow in my chest as I sit atop a throne… with my mother kneeling before me!”
“…I guess I shouldn’t go see her this weekend.”
All this talk of change, and nothing is changing.
All those literary works and satirical jabs and comedic witty retorts don’t actually change the minds of the people it matters most to.
We’re not gaining any ground morally or politically. No amount of protest has really changed the downhill path.
You can claim ‘yes, aha! A small victory’ when a single law is overturned or delayed.
But we’re too far gone
I have hope that *yes* eventually we will recover. But not when it mattered most. Not when people who speak out are silenced by force and the separation of legality from morals becomes ever more apparent.
But nothing will change.
Because you will do nothing.
