Love not having a ”””fandom””” specific blog. Something new will just consume my mind and everyone has to accept it. My house

A good rule of thumb whenever a non-fiction author has "Dr." or "Phd" next to their name on the cover is to check if:

Their doctorate is real and from an accredited institution

Their doctorate is relevant to the subject matter of the book

charlesoberonn

Example 1:

Kent Hovind is not a doctor. He's a creationist conman. His "doctorate" comes from the unaccredited Christian diploma mill "Patriot University". The "propaganda in science textbooks" he's talking about is the theory of evolution.

Example 2:

Vivian King's Phd is in engineering science. She has no formal education in psychology, psychiatry, sociology, or any other field relevant to the subject matter of the book.

An author doesn't have to be an academic to have valuable insight and information to share. But if they are presenting themselves as an academic to seem more legit, but their credentials are fake or misleading, it's a big red flag.

I have lots of thoughts on the Raven Boys graphic novel but I’ll only post one:

Not enough clips in Blue’s hair

happy trb graphic novel day, here are some scans of a riso workshop I took last month 🍃

#the raven cycle #the raven boys

lady-forest-1142

deeply important details I found while rereading the raven boys:

- gansey’s pizza order is one large deep dish, half sausage and half avocado

- a week prior to trb, ronan and adam had taken turns dragging each other on a dolly behind the bmw

- gansey’s burger order is no sauce, no pickle

- adam blushes when he gets warm

- the 300 fox way psychic hotline is one number off from a male escort company

- gansey and ronan have done donuts in the monmouth parking lot frequently enough to leave marks

- there are several sports illustrated swimsuit editions mixed in with gansey’s books in monmouth

- ronan plays tennis

- the lynch brothers received “a decade of obscure irish music instrument lessons” before niall died

- someone wrote BEELZEBUB and ronan’s number in red sharpie in the bathroom at nino’s

- when adam shows up after ronan’s fight with declan in the nino’s parking lot, he’s bouncing a red ball with a spongebob logo. this is never explained.

- gansey’s helicopter drink of choice is apple juice

- gansey is, apparently, excellent at parallel parking (according to himself)

- among gansey’s many doodles in his glendower notebook is a man chasing a car

Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.

If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.

Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.

Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.

I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.

Writers: It's asking to read your Google Docs and be able to 'summarize' things from them and such things. I just turned all mine off.

Because this isn't mentioned above, also go to google.com/drive/settings and turn off all the annoying bits that interface directly with docs there.

This is all in the "privacy" tab of your settings. How fun that everything is hidden two layers deep. 🙄 This DOESN'T get rid of the stupid little star constantly asking you to use it, unfortunately, but that's what the picker in ublock is for. 😉

More detail instructions for OP's post for those who are confused. This is done from the browser on my laptop, I don't know what they look like on phones.

When you click the first link gemini.google.com/extensions, you need to click on the setting icon at the bottom, then choose "Extension", like this:

Scroll down a bit, you will see the options, turn them all off.

Then, you click on the second link myactivity.google.com/product/gemini, you'll see it tells you that it's already "turn off". NO! IT'S NOT! You have to click on that "Turn off" option, it'll drop down a menu like this:

Turn that thing off. Until that button shows you have to click to turn it back on like this:

And then, click on the delete button down there too, even if it says there's nothing to delete, just do it as a caution.

After you's done with those two. You go to your Drive, find the Setting button.

Click on the "Privacy" tab, choose the button "Manage Workspace smart feature setting"

Tick both of those off, then click Save. Or if you still want to use Google AI assistant for some reasons, please read the fine lines very very carefully.

Only then, you can feel safe enough with this force AI assistant bullshit. FOR NOW 🤡 All these steps still can't get rid of that Gemini blinkblink icon though >:(((((

Repeat for every one of your google accounts 💀

Oh my god thank you for whomever posted this.

For years I have tried to only like IWTV a casual, normal amount. But today is the day I accept defeat because that Vampire Lestat trailer is melting my brain. There is no way to be normal about the rockstar lestat before mine eyes

Me, on the welcome desk in the library: Good morning, how are you today?

Customer: I have welcomed Jesus into my heart and so I am well today and every day.

Me, a little unnerved: Okay then! Is there something I can help you with?

Customer, digging around in his bag and pulling out an iPhone in a box: Unfortunately, Jesus can't help me with this fucking phone, so I came to the library.
