too bad he's the worst person ever

GUILD WARS 3!!!!!

I’m starting a gofundme to get a mojito

as a former escape room host i highly recommend doing an escape room as a first date. its a great way to learn how ppl react under pressure and how well they collaborate with you right off the bat. also more than once ive seen people enter an escape room as a couple and exit broken up LOL its a fantastic litmus test

An experiment with a clear negative outcome is still a successful experiment.

For anyone wondering: the Code of Practice is sufficiently ignorant of what "biological sex" is, that the majority of people (regardless of gender) run the risk of being blocked from using any gendered facility whatsoever. This will particularly hit trans people, non-white people, anyone with a disability, children, teenagers and anyone else people like bullying (because it is likely that most challenges will be from bullies rather than good-faith complainants of any description). The Code of Practice does not allow any consequences for vexatious complainants or bullies, only for the people they bully. It also bans unisex accommodations, which means that places like the NHS face potentially needing to double their accommodation to serve the same number of patients (because the NHS cannot in most cases guarantee anything about the sex or gender balance of visitors). Even British transphobes should sign this petition. (That any British person who respects trans people and can access the petition should also sign it, would have been obvious to them before reading my addition. Trans people should be respected).

the petition is currently at 12,723 out of the 100,000 it needs to be considered for debate in parliament!

sad news, my son Crispin Shopify III saw a picture of me when i was breastfeeding him as a baby. the psychiatrists all agreed that exposure to this act which is potentially incestuous and sexual was equivalent to infinite permanent sexual trauma, and so we've decided to euthanize him and just start again from the beginning. hopefully i wont fuck it up again this time. god bless.

The people who insist AI is smarter than a human are doing their fucking damnedest to manifest that

"AI is smarter than a human!" -> AI is smarter than YOU. YOU feel it is smarter because YOU lack the free-thinking needed to recognize its errors and your own dependency

You should take some time to read @3liza's post documenting the Phantom Report Bug (which she deserves praise for doing, thank you eliza) and see how fucking broken Tumblr's report tool is. I also want to reiterate something she is once again correct about: no one files bug reports. I have first hand experience working at Tumblr and I remember having to tell web devs on Staff "i saw a post about someone talking about a bug" and they were unaware because no one followed through to file a bug. I have fixed bugs that I saw people posting about that were in my domain (I'm a mobile dev) but were not in the system. No this is not an endorsement of "complain about it enough and eventually someone will see it", this is an endorsement of "file a bug report directly to computer companies and people will most likely read it and probably fix it". I mean it this is not a Tumblr-only thing. I've seen this at every company I've worked for. Just fucking file a bug report please I beg you, software gets complicated and the devs are just unaware that there's a bug until you bring it to your attention. And they want to fix the bug! I promise!

WHAT AM I ALWAYS SAYING TO YOU PEOPLE. COMPLAINING GETS THE GOODS. YOURE NOT ALLOWED TO GET MAD UNTIL YOUVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE PROBLEM TO SOMEONE WHOSE JOB IT IS TO FIX IT

POLITELY

And not just computers! It's happened twice now that the walk signal request at the intersection by my bus stop has stopped working, for several days, but been fixed the morning after I left a message with public works about it.
