#misinformation correction

[ID: A screenshot that had been edit to be titled in large text, "This screenshot is from 2020". The screenshot shows a news burst from AP Seattle reading, "Breaking: Greyhound says it will stop letting Border Patrol agents conduct routine immigration checks on its buses.". Then a user named corpse / thefurrow replies, "Witnesses said a bus driver told an ICE agent to 'gargle [his] balls' when the latter requested to enter the bus". Below the screenshot, more added text reads, "Warn people who reblog it thinking it just happened yesterday in 2025. Reposting old news without context is a form of misinformation. We all need to work together to stop it, no matter how 'harmless' it may seem.". End ID.]

You might think it's harmless to repost old news like this without the relevant context, but it's not. This is painting a corporation in a positive light, when they may no longer hold that stance.

There is no safe form of misinformation. This reposted news might be about a bus driver swearing at an ICE agent, but next time it could be about a mass shooting, or a wildfire or earthquake, or oil spill.

All misinformation is harmful. Everyone needs to be wary. If a screenshotted post does not have timestamps or a link to a news source, ask yourself why. Google a quote from it to see what shows up.

[ID: A single-page pamphlet titled, "Mickey Mouse is now in the Public Domain!", with "public domain" underlined and bolded for emphasis. The body of the flyer reads:

"The copy-rights for the animations “Steamboat Willie”, “The Gallopin Gaucho”, “Plane Crazy”, and several promotional posters for them have expired!

But what does this mean for you?

Let’s start with the shorter list:

What you cannot do:

Trick people into thinking the art you are selling of Mickey Mouse is official Disney merch, or sanctioned by Disney

Sell art of Mickey that includes *specific designs* still protected by Disney’s copyright

What you can do:

Share, edit, remix, remaster, and sell the original animations that are now in the Public Domain.

Sell digital, traditional, and written art that you have made of Mickey, Minnie, and Pete, with no permission required!

Add new colors and patterns to Mickey, Minnie, and Pete’s classic outfits, or design them brand new outfits altogether!

Create new stories with Mickey, Minnie, and Pete, as animations, movies, books, or comics, and sell them!

Some common misconceptions…

Some people think that you have to stick to the original designs to the letter, IE: keeping them black and white, not having gloves on Mickey, and not letting them talk – but this is just a misunderstanding of what the Public Domain is! You can design and use them in any way you want, as long as you aren’t using a *specific design* still protected by Disney’s copy-rights. They can have color outfits, gloves, and talk! They belong to all of us now! Have fun!"

[ID: a cropped and color-altered screenshot of a Sponsored Tumblr post, showing the word "origin" followed by a photo of a passionflower that is not a Passiflora Incarnata, and appears to be in the Passiflora Foetida complex, with very thick white filaments, a bright pink center, and branched bracts used to trap insects. The whole image has a slight green tint to separate it from the rest of the post. End ID]

Don't take fucking medical advise for herbal supplements from any website that can't even show the actual species they're talking about, and especially if they don't even name the particular species in the first place and then proceed to show flowers from four different, toxic species.

Passiflora Incarnata is the only Passiflora species that it is safe to consume the leaves and that's only if you know for a *fact* that you have Passiflora Incarnata on hand and aren't just assuming its that based on 20 different incorrect photos presented by these shitty articles which show flowers from Edulis, Caerulea (!) and foetida instead of actual Incarnata.

1. Narcissism has never meant “malignant, destructive selfishness”. In 1931, Freud described a narcissist as “someone who was primarily focused on self-preservation, who was independent, not easily intimidated, aggressive, extraverted, high in activity, and unable to love or commit in relationships”. In 1939, Karen Horney agreed with Freud in every way except that narcissists cannot love or commit in relationships because they love themselves too much; she argued that the outward display of self-love is illusory, and that narcissism stems from an inability to love one’s true self or anyone else. [The information for this point came from here, and it’s a very interesting read]

2. I agree that the naming of NPD was misguided, but we can’t do anything about that right now

3. Narcissistic abuse is not a real term. It contributes to the actual term, emotional abuse, not being taken seriously

4. If you were to actually look at ANY of the “narcissistic abuse” pages or articles, the vast majority of them very obviously list NPD or the diagnostic criteria of NPD when describing a narcissist

5. You can learn to trust your own memories and feelings without throwing a disorder under the bus

6. Cry me a fucking river, it’s so horrible that you’re getting told off for stigmatizing a debilitating disorder and making us out to be abusers

you don't get to spread lies and then pretend it's just a joke so that makes it okay.
