I'm obsessed with characters we only hear about second or third hand, especially when those accounts are conflicting. No, you don't get to see them, but here's a warped mirror of what other people thought they were. Enjoy your contemplation of how being known is an act of translation and communicates only aspects of the self.

Interesting Update on Firefox

So Firefox has introduced Terms of Use.

Of note:

This was pointed out updated in the Privacy Policy:

We use technical data, language preference, and location to serve content and advertising on the Firefox New Tab page in the correct format (i.e. for mobile vs desktop), language, and relevant location. Mozilla collects technical and interaction data, such as the position, size, views and clicks on New Tab content or ads, to understand how people are interacting with our content and to personalize future content, including sponsored content. This data may be shared with our advertising partners on a de-identified or aggregated basis.

Additionally, you can have a look at their Github changes here, which shows something else interesting:

Mozilla has deleted the lines "Does Firefox sell your personal data? Nope. Never have, never will. And we protect you from many of the advertisers who do. Firefox products are designed to protect your privacy. That’s a promise.

Another commit shows another removal of a line that notes that Firefox doesn't sell personal data

bedrock/firefox/templates/firefox/faq.html Old: Yep! The { -brand-name-firefox-browser } is free. Super free, actually. No hidden costs or anything. You don’t pay anything to use it, and we don’t sell your personal data. New: Yep! The { -brand-name-firefox-browser } is free. Super free, actually. No hidden costs or anything. You don’t pay anything to use it.

Scrolling further down, you can see a response to a comment questioning it

“Ughhhh I hate the whole ‘/j’ thing!!! Autistic people aren’t stupid!! It makes me feel so invalidated… :/“

Dude. It’s fine you you don’t want to use them/tone tags aren’t useful to you. That doesn’t mean they aren’t useful to other autistic people.

Not every autistic person is as capable at understanding tone as you are, especially over text. Heck, a lot of allistic people don’t understand it over text. It’s not “invalidating”, you just can’t understand someone having a bit more trouble than you.

this website is so funny because every couple years we repeat the discourse of "which marginalised group is it morally okay for us to shit on?" and somehow nobody ever learns from it. we just look back and go, "hey, remember that time when everyone was joking about how ace people should all be put in meat grinders? that was so messed up. we should not have done that. anyway, here's my topical joke about how polyamorous people should all be put in meat grinders."

hate when i make a joke on a post and then look at the tags and everyone else is making the same joke it feels like op is a retail employee and im a customer. im sorry. you should kill me

specific pain stretches, condensed

absolute fuckwaffle / pectoral stretches

basically any stretches where you hold your arms behind your back and puff your chest out, keeping shoulders back and blades together

lace hands behind your head/top of neck, your elbows pointing out to the sides. allow your head to fall back into hands as you open chest and squeeze shoulder blades together

traitor / neck retraction

lay down or lean back on a flat surface and tuck your chin into your neck. hold it there for a bit, relax into usual state, then repeat

drop your head in different directions to relieve tension held there

jackass / drop shoulders

holding your shoulders super tense before letting them go in relaxed pose

more shoulder stretches

and then there's this asshole / superman exercise (yes it's really called that)

lay on your belly with arms fully extended over head and legs straight back; look straight down. contract your glutes (clench your butt) to lift your legs and arms off the the floor towards the ceiling. stop when you feel a flex in your lower back, hold for a second, then return to start.

wiggle out with a brief cat/cow (arch back up, arch back down) to relieve the last of tension if needed

i love how the lines in the sand makes it so that Soldier just rotated 180 degrees without moving his feet or using his hands, gmod and sfm animation style

i don't see this happen a lot these days with modern hollywood blockbusters because most of them are micromanaged to death. but i genuinely feel that every single wrong decision that could've been made with the minecraft movie was made
