I got scamed and cant get into my original tumblr account.

Part of the scam was having a 'normal' looking tumblr message me so please avoid my old account.

The blogs i ran (that are now not under my control) were:

@thumperdaetime - main blog

@thumpersdae art blog

@un-realistictransitiongoals - gender blog with queue that will hopefully run out soon

@thumperdaetimes main blog (your here now!)

@thumpers-dae heres the new art blog. I think i might set up a queue of old artwork (when i have energy). So people can still interact my old Homestuck and Dndads fanworks. So look forward to that!

@unrealistic-transition-goals new gender blog with new queue!

And now presenting:

A nightmare hospital patient, resisting, struggling and uncooperative until caretaker walks in.

On team meetings, they're difficult, heated and argumentative from start to finish, until caretaker joins and they're all like:

The European Union already forced Apple to abandon its proprietary charging port and adopt USB-C across its entire iPhone lineup. It just did something bigger. A new EU mandate requires every smartphone sold in Europe including Apple devices to feature a battery that can be replaced by the user without specialist tools, without voiding a warranty, and without sending the device to a manufacturer approved service center. Batteries must maintain a minimum capacity threshold after a set number of charge cycles and replacement parts must remain available for up to ten years after a model goes on sale.

The consumer electronics industry built its current business model around batteries that degrade, cannot be replaced at home, and create a natural upgrade cycle every two to three years. The EU just legislated that model out of existence in the world's largest regulatory market.

Apple, Samsung, and every other manufacturer now faces a choice between redesigning their devices for the European market or accepting that their current hardware architecture is no longer legally sellable there.

so many responses of “its nice that you’re privileged enough to be able to steal from Target willy nilly!” and that’s not at all what this is about. like, yeah, shoplifting and loitering and graffiti and breaking the rules is, obviously, part of “do crime”. but they’re not parts you have to do.

would you help someone get an abortion where it was illegal?

would you help a trans friend get healthcare that had been criminalized?

would you shelter someone fleeing persecution, even if the law said not to?

would you help a gay couple stay together when the state decided their relationship was unlawful?

instead, would you report someone else for breaking the law? will you snitch on your hungry neighbors for stealing food? on your homeless neighbors for sleeping where they’re able?
