The reason why social media has gotten so much worse recently (reddits recent fuck-up, everything on Twitter since Musk, FB being FB, Tumblrs various attempts at expanding profitability recently) is because it is no longer possible to exist as a company by fencing in large parts of our social life and having investment money pump in on the basis of expected future value of that amount of information when it suddenly costs money to loan money due to suddenly high interest rates after the inflationary crisis of the last year, which has made the current model of the Internet that has existed for the last about 10 years completely unsustainable. All of them need to become profitable or die, and they are learning very quickly that that just isn't possible no matter how much of the life and information of the users one steals. We are witnessing the death-throes of Web2.0, and what comes after is as yet unclear.
#edit: A subscription model has been suggested in the notes which I don't think is sustainable at least not for the Big Three#I mean Tumblr is by far the social media with the highest user goodwill and investment but even here#doing it in an unobtrusive way wasn't significantly helpful#I actually think one of the only ways for this model to continue would be some form of nationalisation#but I doubt that it would happen at the moment barring a serious shift in politics in like the US

OK, it's kinda funny for me to see how, because of the II Movie, many people are sorta...reinventing PayJay for themselfs. Not in a way of more people shipping them/more people creating fan-content with them (although I think these points are also true) but rather people reinventing their dynamic and finally realising that they're not just a simple sappy gay couple/hotel owners, but rather a couple with very messy and unstable relationships and lack of a communication within them, who obviously care about each other, but still not being able to solve their problems just because of the kind of people they are (Paper is soft-spoken and avoiding confrontations and OJ is too self-centered to notice). And same with me lmao!! I kinda liked PayJay before, although my love for them was mostly caused by great fanarts created by the fandom rather than canon material. And still I wouldn't say they were my faves possibly because of lack of their appearances together post season 1 except for comics. BUT NOW. I'm genuinely intrigued by what the Adamation crew decided to do with them in the future. And yay, messy gay people are my favorite type of gay people, so it's a W for me/hj
#eugenedathinker#inanimate insanity#ii#ii paper#ii oj#payjay#gotta say this fuckers are probably my fave ship rn lmao#and that's especially funny because pre-episode 16 i don't think that i could even call them my otp#smwr between ep15 and 16 i've made a tierlist of ii ships and putted payjay in a tier of ships that i just enjoyed but wasn't obsessing over#and here we are#(if ya wanna know the only ships in the highest tier were fantube lightbrush silvercandle and marshbow lol)#anyway i wonder what y'all think about this whole situation

i have a theory about shinji, gin, and aizen, but i'm not really sure how to word it.
we never really see shinji and gin interact all that much, which makes sense bc both of them have significantly more important relationships with aizen, but at the same time it's a little odd how much there isn't.
like. gin cut hiyori in half. shinji is understandably pissed about that, but he aims that anger at aizen - and this seems to be one of the very few things in the bleach world that honestly isn't on him bc he never told gin to do that, he never even implied it. hiyori was never a threat to him. hell, we don't even know if she was charging in the right direction; if anything, attacking her implies that she was which is a really stupid thing to do when you're surrounded by a bunch of people who super want you dead and would kill you if they could be sure you weren't tricking them into stabbing each other (ofc it could also be a fakeout but still)
but i don't remember shinji's beef ever really being with gin, even tho he didn't seem to anticipate that gin was working with aizen the whole time during tbtp. so like does he feel responsibility there? cuz gin went straight from academy to 3rd seat and shinji could plausibly feel like that sent him right to aizen bc he doesn't know that gin was always aiming for that. did he blame himself? does he feel like he should've seen it coming? does he still see him as some weird genius kid? does he just view gin as an extension of aizen, which is both dehumanizing to an extent but also entirely fair bc gin did that to himself?
the thing is, since we never really see them interact much, it's kind of only interesting on shinji's side of things, bc gin doesn't really care about much outside of whatever the fuck he thought he was doing and the version of rangiku that he has in his head who needs back something that the real one doesn't ever seem to have realized she lost to begin with. gin's so disconnected with basically everybody that most of the time you can usually assume his thoughts are just "lol. lmao" and there's no reason to think that doesn't extend to shinji as well (gin has deep thoughts on: aizen, ichigo, and matsumoto (massive asterisk on that one ofc) and i think everyone else is kinda set dressing to him lmao the guy is Fucked Up)
anyway i think it's interesting to toy around with that relationship as it was in reality as well as how it might've been perceived, but also in the sense of both of them being sort of opposite ends of the manchild spectrum - shinji leans into his childish side but still has a fairly adult worldview, and gin is able to pull off maturity to an extent but was never able to escape a deeply childish mindset
#bleach#meta#hirako shinji#ichimaru gin#aizen sousuke#sarugaki hiyori#matsumoto rangiku#kurosaki ichigo#this whole post should also come with a huge asterisk that i'm deeply critical of gin's backstory in general and usually try to ignore it#but. since it is canon. it is a part of this post#and yes btw kira is absolutely included in the ''lol. lmao'' part of gin's fucked up little head#i should also note that to shinji it's very possible gin's situation looks like. uh. well grooming kinda#so he might view gin as a victim that he could've saved but can't anymore bc. well. he has jackass-itis now and it's terminal sad to say#but seriously the fifth division was involved with the academy right?#so this super genius kid comes out of nowhere. graduates in a sixth of the usual time. jumps into one of the highest ranks available.#third seat mysteriously went missing juuuuust in time for gin to snatch that seat up too. quite the coincidence#so now he's suddenly aizen's immediate subordinate. and seems to get along with him better than you'd expect for a brand new graduate.#but aizen worked in the academy - he was a hugely popular teacher#so maybe shinji saw gin trotting along behind aizen in the middle of getting hollowfied and thought ''well shit that's on me''#it wasn't ofc. there was no way he could've known or done anything and neither gin nor aizen would've let him know enough to try#but he doesn't know that himself and unless aizen decides to share then he just. never will#and gin will never care bc he fucked himself up so badly idk if he even really knew how to care anymore

Long Men's Nightshirt
Happy Tuesday! Today you're getting a simple 19th-century style nightshirt, an edit of @historicalsimslife's Edwardian Men's Nightgown. I've finally sort of figured out weight transfers. I did not enjoy it. But the weights are fine, so that's good.
Just the one white swatch this time. Feel free to recolor if you want!
Found in the long dress and robe categories
All LODs
Vertices: 4081
Polygons: 6620
Tagged as masculine
Mesh is required!
Download (SFS)
Alt Download (Mediafire)
#if i had to rank the LODs on this it would go:#1. lod 0. i'd be concerned if lod 0 WASN'T the best one#2. lod 3. i like how boxy it is. and it has surprisingly few gaps. like next to none#3. lod 2. similar to lod 3 but with a gap on the side#4. lod 1. i don't know why the second highest lod is so ugly. distorted buttons AND a big fat gap on the side. and not even boxy! bad lod!!#now that that's over with... model of the day: some guy. i haven't opened my 1827 save in forever. not since i killed my mods folder#am cc#my cc#ts4cc#sims 4 cc#sims 4 custom content#ts4 historical#historical cc#ts4 regency#ts4 victorian#regency cc#victorian cc#1790s cc#1800s cc#1810s cc#1820s cc#1830s cc#1840s cc#1850s cc#i'm actually not sure when these long nightshirts stopped being worn..hm...cutting it off at 1850. it's timeless you get it#ts4#the sims 4#mesh edit#19c

Just saw this comment on a story posted a month ago.
*cries in Eddie Munson Solo Series no one wanted to read, interact with or request for*
No shade to the person that commented this on their own fic if you recognize it. It's not their fault. I'm not mad at them. More crying in the tags.
#and no I didn't tag the solo series like I normally would because it's not about THAT. It's not about trying to get people to read it#It was just really ouchie to see the same concept I wrote 2 years ago get triple the notes in ONE MONTH.#and double the notes of my solo series masterlist in general in one month vs 2 years of my stories sitting there rotting#Then I see people saying they need more solo Eddie and I'm just here like my dudes I begged for requests. BEGGED. But bc I wasn't#/have never been a popular writer people don't want it from ME. It's like omg we want THIS but not like that. Not from you.#Can't help but let it get you down when nothing has changed in 2 years. It's not like I worked my way up and have the interaction now#that every other blog I used to commiserate with back in the day is getting currently. Fandom isn't a competition but it's not fair either#and I really struggle with that a lot of the time#Also yes I will concede I should be happy with the notes on the solo series because they are the highest of all the work on my page but#they're still nothing compared to what some people have just hours after posting a new story.#I saw someone complaining the other day that there are less new stories in the fandom than ever 1. That's simply not true. 2. Even if it wa#can you blame writers for giving up when readers are checking the same popular blogs over again or reading the same 5 tropes the same#2 pairings over and over. The same series? Over and over. Ignoring everything else and then complaining that their faves don't post enough?#That the popular writer with the incredible series (that rightfully deserves interaction) hasn't posted a new dad!eddie or rockstar!eddie#drabble in ages meanwhile there are writes out there pouring their souls into dad!eddie and no one reads it. There is so much rockstar Eddi#smut out there that it could sustain a brand new reader for an entire year before they needed a new fic#Idk man. I'm just feeling so defeated. I write for fun now. But there was a point in time where I desperately tried to build a platform by#offering requests and writing a lot of things I would not otherwise write to try and gain traction on my page and every time I see another#food fucking fic get hundreds of notes I get so sad that I wrote that stupid Melon fic because I had people in my life that told me#they would be excited to read it and for what? One of them still talks to me. The others moved on so fast. Most didn't even reblog it.#Some of them have since written their own food fucking fics that got triple the notes of my OG. Again. No shade to them. I don't own the#concept. It's just disheartening and fucking sad above all else. How hard I tried to get people to LIKE me and my stories. 😂#Just sad hours in general tonight my guys. Going to go and pour the bad feelings into Aftermath and then maybe make a bad life choice and#pour all my savings into an ipad#YES I KNOW first world problems. I know.

manufacturer coupons for meds are a life saver
I'm starting sunosi and my insurance is only covering half of it so there was a copay of over $400.
But the med manufacturers have a savings program that brought it down to $9.
Why do I have to jump through so many fucking hoops when the manufacturer could just, idk, not charge out the ass.
#i know capitalism is the answer#but it's annoying as fuck#this wasn't even the highest copay i've had before savings programs#one migraine med was $800 after insurance for TEN pills#and the savings card only worked once in 12 month time period#chronic illness#chronic fatigue

Spent my afternoon setting up and trying to get the hang of Obsidian to properly redo my OCs' files. Fighting for my life against school-related trauma has me feeling like
#Skye says stuff#Aurelia go *crying cat meme*#my screens#bit of a vent ahead:#big thanks to that shitty programming teacher who screwed me out of a potential career in programming because of how bad he was#I had the second-highest grade in his class yet it was barely enough to pass the year. even the sight of html still makes me feel bad#he wasn't even the worst teacher. just so incomprehensibly inept at his job and stupid-mean about it that it killed that interest of mine#at this point I'm saying fuck it and powering through it (all for my ocs). I reclaimed writing from trauma's claws. I'm retaking this too.

i think some of you guys are looking way too fucking deep into the shitty minecraft movie lol
#dax rambles#yes it looks complete fucking garbage but like#wow no way the billion dollar highest-selling game franchise got a terrible movie?#the franchise that has been a cash cow for over a decade?#people going on about how “MINECRAFT IS ABOUT THE UNIVERSE AND LIFE IT IS NOT CRINGE!!!! IT IS HECKIN DEEP AND STUFF!!”#is just so moronic lol#i agree that minecraft -- especially early days -- is very special and has this feeling to it that is weirdly magical and beautiful#but at the end of the day it's a silly fucking block game about creativity (that's a complaint i do agree with for the movie as well)#no minecraft wasn't designed to be this super deep subtly narrative-driven game the end poem doesn't actually mean anything#notch just wanted something weird for the end credits and the guy delievered lol#like obviously people's interpretations of the end poem are great and i love that and feeding into it for the movie would've been kino but#it's so tiring seeing people acting like minecraft is actually this super 2deep4u game when it really is not#again this is a billion-dollar franchise i expected the movie to be slop the moment is was announced i really do not care lmfao#people asking to boycott and shit is fucking hilarious though like it does not even matter at all LOL#like genuinely just who gives a shit it was going to be bad and looks bad if you don't want to see it then don't watch it#originally i was going to see it for a laugh but it just looks so boring not even funny-bad so i'm not bothering lol#not even because i'm “boycotting” i just don't care it looks terrible#saying this as someone who very much grew up with minecraft i've been playing since fucking alpha 1.1.2#and lord knows how much of an impact it made on me for many many reasons LMAO#but yeah no people are reading way too deep into it and getting way too mad over it#it's just kind of ridiculous

So, bcs I woke up a lke 5am after staying up 'til midnight, I decided to take a nap. During this nap, I read a really fun and heartwarming story about someone who gained precognition.
As in, perfect precognition.
But because they gained perfect precognition, they knew exactly how to dodge any fame or fortune for themselves. And their only real goal with their powers was to help people.
So that's what they did. They dodged cameras everywhere and just kind of... walked in and rescued people who needed to be rescued.
Sometimes they'd have a chat with them beforehand, until it was "their time" to be rescued.
And this allowed for a lot of really wonderful and heartwarming moments of this random nobody walking into their lives, listening to them, telling them about their own story, suddenly rescuing them from certain death, and then just as easily disappearing.
And of course a lot of people tried to find them, but they really couldn't. Most who'd actually seen them probably wouldn't even be able to recognize them on the street, because they'd used their perfect precognition to shift their memory of them juuuust slightly to the left of what it really had been. A simple hand-gesture there, flashing a specific expression here, in the end they'd be too distracted to say anything more identifying than "some guy".
So, it was a really sweet story with a lot of "complete civilians" being rescued in a wide variety of ways. And them then stepping back to try and thank their rescuer, only to find that they were gone, and nobody would be able to find out anything at all about them.
And, as I was dreaming this story into existence, a new chapter happened where the many rescued people kind of stumbled across each other. And my thought was "man, I'd hoped that this fic continued like... twenty more chapters before it got to this point".
Unfortunately, upon waking up and doing a brief internet-check and then spending a little bit of time writing this out? I now know that it doesn't really exist. There was never any story like this. My brain just interpreted "fun dream" as "fun written story".
Which is a bit of a shame, because I wanted to comment on their fic with:
"I know I dreamt this new chapter into existence whilst taking a nap, but it was fun and heartwarming, and I loved it to bits. So, even if you haven't written it yet, I guess this is my brain saying that it believes in you. You can write something beautiful, and I'm looking forward to it."
#like. in hindsight the dream included a lot of things that didn't actually ''fit'' the supposed superpower#bcs one moment it was ''when people die next to them. they will go back in time and have to fix it''#and the next it was ''nobody can perceive them at all. even with the highest-tech gear available to them''#and this last one culminated in them doing a ''fun run'' by telling the military where to find them. and then running rings around them.#so yeah. it was clearly just a dream. and it wasn't perfectly consistent by any stretch of the word.#but it was a nice dream. and realizing that i couldn't thank someone for giving it to me was sad.#stories#writing#personal stuff#laughing

YOUR CHARACTER IN FIVE QUOTES!
( repost, do not reblog. )
Tell us your favorite quotes from your character. Give us an idea of who they are by five things they’ve said. Then tag your friends.
"Nonsense. You mean to say that it was just some spell? That all should be forgiven? Ridiculous! Regardless of Sombron's influence I am responsible for my own actions. I chose to do what I did. It was what I wanted. I will not allow anyone else to shoulder my blame. Not even Father." (FE: Engage, DLC Xenologue 6)
“If I cannot carry out Father's wishes then my existence serves no purpose. All my life I have sought to be valued…only to discover that I am truly worthless." ( FE: Engage, DLC Xenologue 6)
"Even if the rest of the world should turn against you, I will be here. I swear it." (FE: Engage, Pact Ring support conversation)
"Wise words. No amends I make to you will counteract the evil I have done at all. My paltry overtures have been nothing but a childish attempt to soothe my own ego." (FE: Engage, Rafal & Mauvier A-Support)
"I watched over you for a thousand years after you sacrificed yourself for my sake. I spent every waking moment of that time keenly aware of the depths of my foolishness. The fear that you would never wake held me constantly in its grasp. It nearly drove me mad. Hear me. I will do anything not to lose you again. Protecting you is all I care about. Whatever may become of me I am prepared to accept." (FE: Engage, Rafal & Nel B-Support)
#◜ ₊ — 𝓡 ˚ ₊ 𝐅𝐄𝐋𝐋 𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐎𝐑 ╱ meme.#engage spoilers#i wasn't a rafal liker until that first quote took me by the lapels#imagine taking full accountability for your bad behavior and holding yourself to the highest standard when others attempt to absolve you#that sense of self awareness is my favorite which is also observed in the mauvier support quote#another special mention is the pact ring quote#that 'even if the world turns against you' specification is romantic but also such an intensely loyal thing to say#rafal is arrogant and caustic but he's also ride or die#even if you were in the wrong even if YOU commit the worst crimes rafal will still pull up

I can't fucking handle that right now. I'm not even at home#😭😭😭#but anyway it hurts. I'm so angry at myself. the packaging doesn't look similar! one is literally green!! but I just take the ones that I#put in one specific spot and don't question it......#anyway. ouch.#personal#oh and also. I got really shaky and agitated on a lower dose than this of the anxiety meds... soo I also hope it wasn't long enough to be a#problem. because the dose I've been taking is higher than the highest recommended dose. soo. hopefully it was just two days 😬 though tbh it#was probably 4...#and my hands are super shaky but I didn't think too much about that (it happens sometimes) 🤦#annnnd if I do start bleeding that would be a problem because I don't have pads or anything here.... ahhhh I'm so stressed about this now 😭#I hope it'll be ok. I hope it wasn't too long. I can't deal with the pain rn 😭😭😭😭😭😭

kinda curious what everyone's core bg3 squad is (if you have one)? mine has turned out to be lae and ast with the fourth spot rotating in the other characters as needed/wanted, tho lately jaheira has been filling it the most for the extra heals (since i no longer have a cleric...) and also gale got abducted for the plot thing and i haven't gone and got him yet (i took him out of my party for one second!). I did more party switching in act 1 &2 but by 3 this is kinda what's been working best
i'm a bit sad karlach isn't quite on par with lae for tankiness tho (she's good as heavy dps but fighters are just like s-tier, they hit so hard and so many times lol), i prob could have multi-classed her earlier but oh well
(my tav is a druid which dictated the party comp a little bit, hopefully i can change it up a bit next pt...probably roll drow paladin again like i did in the EA, see if that changes it. it's hard b/c i do love my core squad now lol, i need to figure out how to get wyll in more, i finally got him a good rapier but idk his skills don't always gel with everyone else's as well)
#bg3#baldur's gate 3#baldur's gate 3 spoilers#bg3 spoilers#baldur's gate 3 squad#i think it's funny people hate lae b/c ive had her in my party the whole time she has the highest approval with my tav lol#astarion is second even tho i romanced him#i was reading that the abduction thing is lowest approval but like gale wasn't that low either so idk#like his approval is in the green but not as high as everyone else i guess#q
