This is about Sci-Hub. yeah we get it.. gatekeep knowledge and protect the interests of capital…

[three-blogs-in-a-trenchcoat]

Listen, this is serious.

Do not use the website called Sci-Hub!

It lets people access scientific articles for free. This is dangerous. It helps the free flow of knowledge and reduces the competitive edge of all the people who worked really hard to have been born into a wealth.

Like, it’s literally a website where you can type in the DOI of an article and read it, without ever having to pay the publisher who exploited the author.

So, again, do not, under any circumstance, use Sci-Hub. I mean, can you imagine a world where knowledge is free and easily accessible to everyone? Even, y'know, poor people?

Libgen also has many books online, including textbooks, searchable by name, author, and ISBN. Can you imagine textbook companies not getting their hard-earned income from poor college students? Here is the link just so you make sure that you never accidentally stumble across this horrible, unethical website.

[three-blogs-in-a-trenchcoat]

Oh, and while we’re talking about books, if you’ve managed to stay clear from Libgen, definitely don’t go to zlibrary, where you can also find a lot of textbooks, but unfortunately they’re completely free.

Another commission at rough finish stage! Caran d’Ache and Derwent colored pencils on black Fabriano tiziano paper. The trickiest part was definitely those roses and crystals, but I think they turned out pretty well!

Self-Defense Can’t Save Women From a Sexist Criminal Justice System

The nearly identical cases of Brittany Smith and Rose Parker show how the justice system penalizes abuse victims for surviving

It’s hard to know how many stories like this there are, but the data suggests they’re more common than you would ever suspect. In one California prison study, 93% of women imprisoned for murdering a partner said they’d been physically abused by the person they killed; 67% of those women reported that they’d been trying to protect themselves or a loved one.

It’s not just that we mishandle women’s self-defense cases. It’s that the ways we mishandle them have not demonstrably changed in decades. We are culturally conditioned to view women’s attempts to protect themselves from men as more fearful, and more dangerous, than any assault a man might commit. As a result, many women imprisoned for “murder” are, in fact, victims who are being punished for managing to survive.

We gotta look out for each other

[myrosecolouredgirl]

Every time you guys make those cute jokey joke posts about how you have to scroll forever to get to the real recipe, I die a little inside

We live in a world that all but refuses to pay women for engaging in the arts because misogyny. So they either find one creative outlet, or find a way to monetize their art, and yalls internalized misogyny really Jumps Out

[hyumjim]

LMAO

[babybear]

when youre an upper middle class white woman but you want to be oppressed really bad so you Go Off on twitter at people skipping your 3 page rants that theyre obligated to read (and enjoy) bc you performed the emotional labor of having a recipe blog

[sentada]

Im going to lose my goddamn mind

@thebibliosphere I think this is the direct call out for you :D

[thebibliosphere]

This entire post is calling out my continued existence on multiple levels and it is the funniest god damn thing ever 😂

[thatdisasterauthor]

Also. That’s…not how SEO works??? Not really anyways. SEO involves adding RELEVANT keywords to your blog text to help search engines better categorize them. If I’m searching for a maple bar recipe I’m searching for “maple bar recipe” so those are the words that need to be optimized for. Also probably things like “cooking” or “gluten free” or whatever. Things related to the actual maple bars, basically. I am never going to type in “September 11th” or “Life on the farm” when searching for maple bars so those terms are not going to help the search engine better categorize my results.

[thebibliosphere]

^^^ yep

The lengthy stories at the front really do not help you get clicks. Like I said in my tags, you wanna write about your life and get creative via your blog? Great, do that. But preferably on a separate post not titled “brownies”. If people have to scroll through your therapy session to get to the recipe, chances are they’re not going to get there, and nor will they click any of your affiliate links. Balance is key. But also so is knowing how the things your complaining about actually work.
