laptop overheating?? pour water on it to cool it down!
i trusted you
Do not trust people like me. I will take you to museums, and parks, and monuments, and kiss you in every beautiful place, so that you can never go back to them without tasting me like blood in your mouth. I will destroy you in the most beautiful way possible. And when I leave you will finally understand, why storms are named after people
THE ORIGINAL?!?!?!?!?!
i'd like to apologise to iwaoi fandom for uploading so much divorce lately. here's a cute one to make up for it
before you board that plane.

stop. analyse that text through the lens of its author's intentions and original historical context. okay now take the author out back and kill them dead and analyse that text as though it were published by your mutual yesterday and is in direct conversation with the contemporary discourse that's most relevant to your life. okay now pick your favorite angle of interpretation and come up with the strongest possible argument against it. now imagine that the text is your best friend and that it means you well and that you naturally give it every benefit of the doubt because you're on its side and you want the best for it. now imagine that the text wants you dead and it'll eat you if you don't eat it first. now pretend that you found this text locked away in a cave with no evidence of when or where it came from and you have to divine its meaning solely through its internal coherence and nothing else. okay now address the elephant in the room aspect of the text you've been ignoring because you find it boring or confusing or uncomfortable and become the number one expert on it. now spend forty minutes assigning all the characters dnd classes with at least three sentences of reasoning each. okay now do the cha cha slide.
when he isn't looking
I feel like we really lost something when we started looking at writing as a reader-centric product meant to appeal to the desires of a specific audience rather than a writer-centric approach of someone writes whatever particular thing particular compels them/whatever weird thing the demons in their head want to talk about, and people out there who are also compelled, and/or relate, find that writing. A lot of discussions of writing really center around what readers want rather than a writer's exploration. Sometimes as a reader I don't know what I want. I click on a fic or pick up a book I'm not sure about but that looks interesting, and I love it. Reading what I expect to get is it's own joy, but we always need to expand our horizons and not get mad at creators for not always writing what we want/expect.
Everyone please behold this baby tree:
It's so much smaller than the support posts, they had to secure it with caution tape.
Caution: baby!
One day (but not this day)!

I got 60 out of 1000 đ
Based on the number of ratings each book has on Goodreads. And if you haven't read them, maybe you can use for a literature bucket list.
Anyone who says theyâve read all 1000 is a liar because one of them is a huge cookbook and no one is actively joy reading that.
with some of these itâs like âfuck, I did read that,â and with some itâs like âOh fuck, I did read that.â
I got 99, but I counted a few that I had only mostly-read before deciding I didnât like them and never finishing them.

THAT'S ALLOWED?
Writing is for communication. Sir Terry knew very well that anything's allowed if it helps you communicate something effectively.

Tumblr pushed out this announcement a few days ago as the tidal wave of "mature" content flagging hit everyone's dashboard and posts.
This passage here is really indigestible and not sitting well with me:
"Why Weâre Doing This These updates help make Tumblr safer and more consistent for everyone. They will help protect users, especially younger audiences or anyone else who prefers not to see this content."
Umm... Why are you putting the burden on the majority of users when those primarily affected already have tools and recourse to enjoy a "safe" browsing experience?
Younger audiences...shouldn't be here engaging in the first place, per Tumblr's own terms of use during account creation, right?
Anyone else "who prefers not to see this content" can learn how to deploy a few little filters for their browsing pleasure in less time than it takes to clutch their pearls.
Letâs be honest: this notion of safety is performative pandering. Itâs not about protecting anyone. Itâs about putting up a front to appease advertisers. Itâs about pretending to solve a problem instead of engaging with it responsibly. Parentsânot platformsâare responsible for managing what their kids see online. Punishing adults for occupying adult spaces does nothing to make the internet safer; it just makes it emptier and duller.
This is exactly what Vox described as the âenshittificationâ of social mediaâwhere platforms degrade the user experience to chase vague corporate virtue andâof course, that McGinley of everything that was once beloved and became popularâprofit. AI moderation and empty âcommunity protectionâ rhetoric are part of that decline. They strip away nuance, creativity, and humanity in all its chaotic, but honest, glory.
Tumblr built its reputation as a home for artists, writers, and creators who express whimsical, wonderful, weird, and beautiful creativity running the gamut of human emotions and experiences. Now, those same creators are being silenced by a malfunctioning algorithm that cannot tell the difference between art, education, and obscenity. Itâs hurting creators, diminishing visibility, and possibly placing them at risk of shadow bans or account restrictionsâall because of poor automated moderation while ramming this really dangerous, puritanical vision of what is "appropriate" down our throats.
We deserve a lot better.
please god watch this right now
The editing of this video is hysterical and genius- they switch between so many editing styles to reflect exactly what kind of thing they're going for in each segment its GREAT.
PJ from today onwards
So like... now what? Does Tumblr get deleted now? We beat the final boss [phan hard launch]
