Random FF reference for the day 😅

Oh, man, when this video loaded up I was like, "Where is this going?" lol. But yeah, that's fascinating. I've done research on the Archduke's assassination in the past, but I don't remember if I ever came across that factoid.

Also, "But arguably more importantly, giving the band Franz Ferdinand its name." lol. That killed me. XD

Also, also, John quoting Taylor Swift tickles me. Of course Mr. Part-time online English teacher is gonna be familiar with "the lakes." And while I know the song well, I hadn't gotten around to ever looking into which group of poets she refers to in it, so I learned something there, too.

I downloaded this video to show you, but apparently I can only had photos not video, so here is a TT link 🙈

Thanks! <3

How are you doing? Your last post said you were super stressed out and were going to go sleep, and there hasnt been anything since... Are you okay?

Oops, sorry, it’s sweet of you to worry!  I’m fine, but a combination of grad school and beginning a new job means I have spotty commitments to the internet.  I’ll do my best to update my Ms Marvel masterpost at some point, and in the meantime please support your local comic shops if you can!

I guess it does, but I feel like if you queue your posts than it would never end, and when you try to catch up on tumblr you would have to scroll through your own posts that were posted when you werent even online. Just screwy….

Heh, I see what you're saying. But I'm also used to using the queue for the Franz blog I co-mod, so it doesn't really freak me out. In fact, I tend to forget about some stuff I've queued up, so when it posts it's like, "Oh hey, cool! I forgot about that!" Also, way back when I still used AOL (back before we got cable internet), they used to have a feature where you could kind of queue up your mail. Like, you could schedule an email to be sent at a specific time. I don't recall using it that often, but y'know the idea of the intratubes doing something for me while I'm not there isn't entirely new for me. In fact, I don't understand why more things online don't have something similar. It's kind of like setting up a VCR or DVR to record or something. But, I can see how it would freak some people out.

I do not understand drafts or queues. I read things, I reply, I post. What is the point of doing all of that and then just not hitting post?

Well, I use them because if I were to post things right when I saw them I'd probably end up constantly flooding people's dashes and I don't want to do that. I don't like it when other people do it, so I don't want to do it to anyone else. I also do it to try to keep stuff even. Like, I don't want my blog to be too flooded with one topic at time, if that makes sense.
