Sorry, my what? My pronouns? Oh, yeah I'm between genders at the moment. No, it's cool, I quit my last gender a little while ago because it really wasn't working out. I don't know if I even have a dream gender anymore.
Oh yeah, it did come with benefits, but they weren't really worth it. The culture was really toxic. To be honest I think I'd prefer a part-time gender so I can just be self-described in my spare time.
I mean, in a perfect world we wouldn't need gender, you know? We could just voluntarily be perceived as much as we're able, as much as makes us feel fulfilled. Having a full-time gender shouldn't be a prerequisite for food, shelter, and healthcare.
Honestly, Tvyek is pretty miraculous. It’s permeable to water vapor but not to water, it’s nearly impossible to tear, but can be easily cut. It’s cheap and made entirely without binding chemicals. In addition to being used for wristbands, it’s used to wrap construction sites to keep out water during construction, for tear-resistant envelopes at Fed-Ex, coveralls for mechanics, and my wallet, actually.
Fun tip, though it looks like paper, Tyvek is plastic, and cannot be recycled with paper.
holy fuc
I didn’t even know it had a name
“Humans are inherently selfish--" Then why do so many cultures value hospitality, to the point of dictating it in their religions? Why is it so common for hosts to offer their visitors their best food, and as much of it as they can? At some point, multiple cultures decided that they knew what it felt like to be alone and vulnerable, and promised each other to never let those who stay with them feel that way. That doesn't sound very "inherently selfish" to me.

This includes not working for free. Shift is over and work is left to do? Leave it for the next person who is paid to take care of it. Is that you and it'll sit all weekend? Well, they should hire someone else to help with the workload. They don't pay you to worry about that.
I see this with coworkers who will stay 30 min past their shift because they don't want to leave unfinished tasks for the next person. We are chronically understaffed and the employer is not inclined to change this fact if the work is still getting done and service isn't impacted.
being on an airplane is a lot like being in kindergarten
I wanna hear where you're going with this
-there's snacktime
-there's always some kid screaming
-the authority figures are mostly there to keep you safe rather than get you to do anything in particular
-all else equal they would really rather you take a nap, though
- someone tells you a story / tries to teach you something using pictures, props, and exaggerated hand gestures
You can look out the windows, but there is strictly NO going outside except at designated times.
I feel like when I say ‘relatable’ what I really mean is ‘resonant.’ I don’t want characters who I feel are like me, I want characters who have emotions so strong I can feel them through the page.
I think this is important because a lot of us forget the power of stories to make us feel things about characters who are not like us, who have experienced things that we never will. The purpose of listening to someone else's story should not necessarily be identification, but understanding.

Part of the glory of reading is the way you can live many lives instead of just your one -- and while it's heartening to find someone else going through the same things as you, it's also grand to live wildly different experiences too.
And if you get to live them secondhand in a way that has the emotions glowing from the page with all the impact of rock concert speakers that make your lungs shake ... then that is a secondhand life well lived.
Bear religion probably fucking rocks. You're a fucking bear, you're the deadliest thing on earth, once a year an endless supply of salmon just flings itself up the river to gorge on and then you nap for 3 months.
The most delicious food in the world is protected by tiny demons who can defend it from everyone except you. Your natural armor is thick enough that you can just eat the damn hive while they buzz around you. God's chosen animals right there
Regular bears tell stories of angel bears sent by the Bear God, pure white and twice as strong as any normal bear could be, who rule the summit of the Earth and kill all who stand in their path.
And they are right, those bears exist and totally do that. Humans just have fake angels as a cope.
love the idea of bears being the chosen species actually. having a near death experience and glimpsing heaven and realising it's just full of bears, no humans at all, humans not ensouled actually, humans an accidental byproduct of God's plan for bears
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.

May 25: Six years since the police murder of George Floyd rocked the world.
The billionaires and their politicians were shaken by the popular uprising that followed, and now they are trying to exact revenge. But the struggle continues. We won’t give up. #BlackLivesMatter

"General Gran is dead?" Roy asks incredulously.
Maes doesn't repeat himself, just takes another long swallow of Roy's whiskey.
He's been opposing them from the beginning and was a bastard on top of it, so it's not exactly like it's a huge loss, but, "Who killed him?"
It's not like people end up in that many pieces on accident.
"No witnesses," Maes says.
He blanches. "How many casualties?"
"None."
"The man's house was practically leveled!" he snaps. "You're seriously telling me that happened with no one noticing and no one else killed?"
Maes doesn't answer him again. He just keeps drinking.
Roy's about to start himself. Of all the times for this to happen, it has to be when King Pakor's personal slave is staying with them. The last thing they need is Van Edris hearing about this, but with something this large, he's not sure how much a language barrier can prevent.
Happy birthday!!! Heated rivalry?

There's cameras and lights all around him and he's flying high on the victory of another game won when an interviewer for some pop magazine asks, "Any update regarding the Lily situation?"
Shane feels himself flush and light up at the same time and tries to tap it back down, tries to make it something that can reduced to just coming off the ice and another job well done. He should say no comment, he should brush this aside, he should be redirect. Instead he says, "I got kissed."
It ends up going viral, with the most common comments being some variation of if he doesn't love me like this then i don't want it and Lily you lucky bitch.
Ilya has the clip saved on his phone.

Happy birthday! Anything Draco please
a continuation of 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
His first thought when he wakes up on a damp, cold floor surrounded by the skeletons of hundreds of small creatures is that his godfather is going to kill him.
His second is that he's grateful that he's not tied up or restrained in any way, although that's quickly followed by offense. Seriously?
"You're awake."
He pushes himself up so fast that he's dizzy for a moment. Ginny stands above him, idly twirling Draco's wand in his hands, and okay, without a wand his options are limited.
Either this isn't Ginny, she's being controlled, or she's lost his mind.
Draco considers his options for about ten seconds then decides it's only appropriate for him to occasionally act in a manner befitting of his house.
He pushes himself up and lunges for Ginny, shoving her to the ground and ripping his wand out out of her hands. She tries to fight against him, but he pins her arms behind her like Vincent used to do to him when they were kids. Regardless of whatever's going on, he can restrain an eleven year old girl. Except now what's he's supposed to do?
She starts hissing like Harry does when speaking Parseltongue and he's so startled he almost lets go over her. What on earth?
Um.
Why is that statue moving?
Every so often I catch a glimpse of the book drama going on over on the Insta/Threads sphere of the Internet, and it makes me so glad I’m considered too Tumblrina to sit at their tables.
What do you mean an author is railing against people using libraries/the Libby app because it’s “free” (it’s not. you as the author get money from the library purchasing the digital lending license) and meanwhile their book is on Amazon for free to try and get readers??? Hello????
“But if people read it for free they might like it want to buy the rest of my work!”
You mean like how people read books at libraries, and end up buying them if they like them?
“That’s not the same 😡”
Correct! Because again, libraries pay us. You putting your books up on Amazon for free means you get nothing.
I am staring directly into the camera like I’m on the Office in Librarian. Libraries are literally an author’s best friend. We get books to people they never would have known about otherwise, & create Fans out of disinterested bystanders. And! Libraries are often paying MORE for a book than the average user, at least for digital editions, because it is expected that the library will lend it to more people, so theoretically we need to pay more to compensate the authors! (This is not I think how it works in practice, it more often just benefits the digital lending company instead of the actual author but. Greed is ever thus). Also, in some countries (sadly not the US, boo hiss) authors get paid for every checkout of a book. So, you can literally get royalties on those “free” books. (Also, they’re not free, they’re paid for with tax dollars for the good of everyone). How some fool can think temporary freeness on Amazon Kindle is superior to libraries I cannot fathom. Like, how does this person even manage to function in the real world?
Anyway. Authors. Love your librarians. We love you and seek only to help you get more readers so you can write more books. We have a symbiotic relationship, each needs the other.
#I thought if you were self pubed#you basically couldn't get into the library#sounds like being mad at a club#that won't let them in
Just saw this in my notes and thought I'd reply. You can't get into libraries if you only use Amazon, but platforms like Draft2Digital, Ingram and Kobo Writing Life make it possible for self-pub authors to have their work made available to libraries across the global network.
You're sometimes more likely to get picked up by libraries if you list yourself as having a publisher, but as a self-pub author you can do that by registering as an LLC (which for me was $250 back in 2020, I don't know what it is now) and then listing the name you used as the publisher. But even that's becoming an unnecessary step with how prominent self-pub has become.
Really at this stage, this person is shooting themselves in the foot by opting to remain an Amazon exclusive author and being a twit about it on main, but that's their hill. They can die on it.
