8:02 pm angel says

The first breath was full of light. And how cruel that the next was of darkness. The temptation, a bitter taste in the back of the throat. Was it right?

Or fair?

To demand such perfection, and be so quick to condemn. We are nothing if not made in your image.

12:10 am human says

Our world and it’s violence, the suffering, sometimes I am surprised we survive it.. Loneliness. Loneliness is such a terrible thing. A punishment for a crime not committed. And hope is so fleeting, intoxicating, and so heavy on the shoulders.

3:25 am angel says

I have seen Earth. I have seen war. I have seen death, hell, and heaven, and it is easier to see sadness than to see happiness.

I have drifted through this world as a body already dead. This gold that gnaws slowly along the bones, reminding of life.

Of the hell I carry within me.

I wish I could say it has meant something, but it has only given me sorrow.

2:22 pm human says

This tragedy planted into the chest;

It grows. It blooms. It wilts.

These bodies were not meant for such grief.

Or perhaps they were.

It’s all we’ve been blessed with.

God is silent.

5:59 am angel says

We are your children, but not equal except in punishment.

1 second later God says

I am your father and I have loved you all.

A second after that human says

And did we have to break under the burden of your love?

Check if your city has this program!!!

Everyone needs access to reliable, affordable transportation — to get to work, visit the doctor, make it to school, or simply participate in

Please boost this!!!

infiniteglitterfall

Lyft does not know how the fuck to make this accessible. Their entire explanation of how to use it, which people on Twitter had to keep asking them for, was:

“We’re working with several partners to serve different communities around the country. @UnitedWay offers immediate assistance and access to rides at https://t.co/bNqtYzSOz9. For info on how to work with our other partners, check out https://t.co/yyaIw36gKT”

Basically… go through their links to every different agency… contact each of them… and ask each of them how to do it?

Fortunately, the United Way (which runs 211) was a little clearer.

United Ways and 211s will begin providing free Lyft rides to eligible clients in select cities this month.

Basically, if you’re in one of these cities:

Atlanta, GA

Austin, TX

Baltimore, MD

Boston, MA

Cleveland, OH

Cincinnati, OH

Denver, CO

Des Moines, IA

Detroit, MI

Houston, TX

Jacksonville, FL

Louisville, KY

Minneapolis, MN

Omaha, NE

Philadelphia, PA

Pittsburgh, PA

Salt Lake City, UT

San Diego, CA

San Francisco Bay Area, CA

Springfield, MA

St. Louis, MO

Tacoma, WA

Tallahassee, FL

Tampa Bay Area, FL

Ventura, CA

You can call 211, or text 898211, to ask about the program. (Tbh they’ll probably make you call, to ask you a few questions so they know if you qualify.) Then they’ll tell you what to do to use it.

You can also take the opportunity to ask about anything else you might need help with, like interview clothes, food, utility bills, etc. They’re basically there to connect you with all the resources.

If you don’t support AO3′s policies, then don’t post your fic there.

samjohnssonvt

Don’t read there, either.

rainewynd

..and don’t bitch about how you’re feeling excluded by the “cult of AO3” because hello, you’re against it, that’s what excluding yourself does….

phoenix-ace

None of this makes any sense…

myminorityfeelsminor

>_> its tone deaf you’re right. Criticism isn’t bad.

phoenix-ace

I think that’s what it is. Folks cant be sensitive to criticism but then act like critics are “too sensitive”, the whole “you cannot utilize this site unless you 100 support it and are its primary demographic” doesnt work in any real life capacity and is extremely dismissive (and hypocritical), like we all know we didnt “exclude ourselves”…

anneapocalypse

I would like to clarify that this post was not made in response to people who would like to see AO3 add certain features, fix bugs, etc. You are right, criticism isn’t bad, but that’s not what I’m talking about here.

I’m responding to people who fundamentally disagree with the the philosophy at the core of the OTW and the Archive Of Our Own.

I’m responding to people who want AO3 to ban certain subject matter and certain ships. I’m responding to people who believe it is the job of the archive they utilize for free to curate content according to their tastes, preferences, and objections. I’m responding to people who are angry that AO3 does not act according to their desires.

And to those people, I say: you don’t have to use AO3, and if you feel strongly about it, perhaps you shouldn’t.

AO3′s software is completely open source. The code is here. You can set up your own site with all of its tools, but with your own rules. You can make it an entirely private site if you want. You don’t even have to be capable of continuing development on it, you can just keep updating with the things the OTW does. You just have to be capable of either maintaining it and editing the HTML, or paying someone to.

Nobody fucking does. Nobody wants to do the fucking work. People want AO3 volunteers to put in even more work than they already do to allow the objectors the power to control it. The objectors themselves don’t want to do the fucking work; they want other people to do the work while they make the rules. And that is some bull. shit.

fremedon

I was there, Gandalf, three thousand years ago, when the OTW was just getting off the ground. And everyone involved in starting the AO3 just assumed that fandom would take the code and build a bunch of single-fandom / character / pairing / trope archives with it. Because that’s what fandom was. That’s what it did with Astolat’s Automated Archive software, which ran the original Yuletide exchange and the big archives for Sentinel and Smallville and Due South and a couple dozen other fandoms at the time.

The AO3 was primarily meant to be a repository–one big backup for all of fandom. It was designed with the assumption that most of its content wouldn’t even be uploaded directly to AO3, but automatically cross-posted or imported from other, smaller archives. Or mailing lists. Or individual author websites. Or other parts of the fannish environment that just…don’t exist anymore.

When fandom olds say the AO3 changed fandom, we mean, it was fandom’s oxygenation crisis: such an immense, runaway success that it wiped out almost every vestige of the previous world. And enabled all sorts of new and more complex things to grow and evolve–but they’re growing in the archive’s world and breathing its air.

white-throated-packrat

Okay, I love the metaphor of AO3 as the Great Oxygen Catastrophe, because that’s hilarious and yet so apt. AO3 really did change the entire fandom ecosystem, and it’s hard to remember what we did in fandom before it.

Which is why Fanlore exists and you should read some entries when you have a moment.

Is this what getting old is? Is it watching the younger ones barrel head on into a mistake that you made when you were their age? And they still INSIST upon doing it, even though they are doing the exact same things you did at the same point in their lives? Is this why old people are ok with dying because they’re just so damn sick of each new generation making the same mistakes as the older ones, like a mobius strip made of nothing but Charlie Brown, Lucy Van Pelt and the football?

Because I can hear people saying “we’re only going to get rid of The Bad Stuff! The stuff that Everyone™ agrees is wrong.”

And let me tell you, because I saw this first hand, THAT IS ALWAYS HOW IT STARTS.

AND IT ALWAYS ENDS WITH “GAY ANYHTING IS BANNED.”

White couples that adopt non-white kids

draumbouy-deactivated20150111

If you’re getting mad at someone for adopting a parentless child and bringing that child into a loving home because their skin color doesn’t match then you need to take a good hard look at your priorities, evaluate your life, and ask yourself how you sunk this fucking low.

tele-loves-logicalmagic337

Are you implying that POC kids shouldn’t have a chance at love, no matter their skin color or the skin color of their parents? Are you saying that family and love is based on looking the same? That it’s disgusting to see parents with children who don’t look like them? That a child- A CHILD- should not be given the opportunity to be loved and cared for because they have more melanin in their skin? That an adult, one who is looking to adopt because they want a child to love and care for and spoil because they cannot/will not/should not produce one with their own DNA, should not even consider a child who looks different from them because what? Because it doesn’t fit your happy little model of what a family looks like? Well, news flash buddy: family comes in all forms. Single moms, single dads, gay couples, straight couples, grandparents taking on extra responsibility, even friends stepping into the role because no one else can support you the way you need to be supported. There is no good model for family because THERE IS NO PERFECT FAMILY. Family exists in the ties you make with the people who love you. Not in some idealistic aesthetic bullshit. So how dare you say that a child who needs love and care and affection shouldn’t be adopted because they’re not white. How dare you say that white parents who adopt POC children are wrong and should be embarrassed. Because those parents wanted a child and chose to help a child in need, which is more than some parents can claim they have done. What you’ve done is you’ve told the world that you believe that the only families worth looking at share a skin tone. What you’ve done is you’ve told hundreds, thousands even, of children that they don’t belong with their parents because their skin don’t match. That they should be ashamed of their skin tone, that they’re different from their parents. That maybe, just maybe, their parents might be ashamed of them, because they look different and it’s obvious. What you’ve done is told white parents of POC children that you think their child is unfit for them. That their child doesn’t belong with them. And, most insulting, that they made the wrong decision when they adopted a child in need, when all they wanted to do was fill a hole in their heart with someone they plan to love unconditionally. I hope you’re ashamed of yourself.

Apparently this is a running gag in math textbooks

thats-so-roentgen

Oh, no, my friend, @aceyuurikatsuki . It’s not just that. It is so much more. Settle down and let your friendly neighborhood x-ray tech explain you a thing.

Throckmorton’s Sign, otherwise known as Throckmorton’s Principle, does in fact have to do with dicks. Because it is fairly normal for a dick to show up on a hip or pelvis x-ray. But the thing about Throckmorton’s Sign is, it’s not just that the dick is visible. It is a legitimate diagnostic tool.

Let me explain: let’s say a person equipped with a penis is in a car accident and has right leg and right side hip/pelvic pain. Their doctor will order x-rays. Unfortunately, sometimes fractures are so small that they can be missed, or, because the patient is in such bad shape and the images obtained aren’t the best quality, the radiologist can’t be sure for one reason or another if what they’re seeing is actually a fracture.

So what do they do? They look for the dick.

You heard me correctly. The dick.

Throckmorton’s Sign is when “the penis points to the area of pain.” So if the above-mentioned AMAB patient’s xray aren’t displaying a clear, obvious fracture, but their dick is pointing to the right side, 9 times out of 10, the injury or fracture is on the right hip or leg area, so then the radiologist will focus on that side while reading.

Now I know what my non-radiology followers are thinking. “Ace, this sounds like bullshit. This can’t be true. You’re lying through your teeth.” But I swear to you, it is 100% accurate. I have seen a positive Throckmorton’s Sign multiple times with my own eyes over the course of the past 7 years. Ask any x-ray tech, and they will probably agree with me.

Your dick is good for at least one thing, and that thing is helping a radiologist diagnose your upper femur, hip, or pelvic fracture.

This had been a PSA.

[poem text: ma says there’s an angel in the creek out behind old mr. henry’s shack. she saw it when she was seven years old, playing by herself while her pa helped mr. henry with his hay bales: sliced her bare foot open on a jagged rock, and the angel swam towards the blood in the water.

ma looked right into the angel’s six blind eyes and asked him, “how come you’re down here, sleepin’ in the mud, when you could be up in heaven, plantin’ sunflowers for god?”

his wings were like a dragonfly’s, transparent and glimmerin’, and his halo was a ring of algae. the angel grinned, three rows of sharp teeth, and said, “girlie, god has plans for the bluegills too.”
