The last update on the whole Dead Zine drama for now-warning contains certain imagery with an underage fictional character-

Originally i was not going to update the doc nor put anything new into it due to a certain topic that is very much a grey area but I felt that I need to be touched upon a bit and that certain places do not allow content like that, even if there is no intent on doing anything offline like that.

The update and so on can be found later on in the doc, I will be sharing the whole doc though as the issue unfortunately is still going on and I have to remind folks that there is evidence is there and know that I don't know how to make fake screenshots like that, I only know how to edit mlp and show head atem content, in case anyone is thinking that the screenshots here are fake.

keep in mind again that I am not calling anyone a certain word because this is a grey area, I am only warning about the content created and that certain places do not allow it and in some ways the nature of how content like that can be frowned upon, I ask however is do not wrongfully name them, just be wary of what some people draw and that we may never know if they do the actual thing offline or not.

-I will say that writing that doc and mentioning certain things was not easy, it had to have been the hardest thing I have ever had to write in my 20 years on this ball of rock, looking back on someone's passing like this, was uncomfortable and has left a bit of impact on me mentally, more so with how some have used it for their own clout and are trying to get away with as the weeks go on.

I am aware that others have started to hide behind anonymous on this site as well and eh, I have been through this plenty of times over many years of people restoring to name calling because they don't know how else to respond when they are backed into a corner, but you do you boo on this one if it makes you feel privileged or whatever.

But i have said what i needed to say on this whole circus, that is a learning point in who you trust or let into a fandom space, this is one of the many cons when it comes to being a founder and I have never regretted more in my life in letting this happen and letting certain people in who ended up making a mock of something that was supposed to have good meanings and for people to just enjoy.

I feel tired physically and mentally from doing the same contest dance with crackers like this.

I will be however taking a step back and only coming back sooner if it's urgent.

I just need to take time for myself, I need to enjoy life for once and not feel like others are constantly breathing down my neck or thinking this is like 2014 again with a different drama and a bunch of people hacking and running something into the ground.

I have said all i can say again for now, I have provided as much as I can, this is me saying that I need to take a step back at the moment and that unless they can provide evidence on their end before all of this went down, then I'm all ears.

for now, however, actually understand the word ''no'' and think before you go around trying to pull things out of thin air take to time to think about others and how this is affecting them in all of this by carrying on trying to run a dead project and just let it go for all of my sake and others out there and also think about the art content you posting as well during this more so.

tiktok isn't the only place filled with quacks, okay. there are users spreading bad medical and psychological advice on here every day. please don't believe someone just because they post often and sound eloquent. not every well-worded idea is valid, even if parts of it resonate with you.

[countess-of-edessa]

the thing about taking advice from anyone on tiktok or instagram including catholic and christian type influencers, parenting advice, relationship advice, etc, or internalizing any stories of horrible relationships and betrayal people tell on those platforms, or reading about all the ways interpersonal relationships can end horribly and be cycled through extremely quickly on those platforms is that you are necessarily then consuming the thoughts and experiences of someone who is willing to put their face and name on a public social media platform to talk at you. and like 1% of those people have a good reason for doing so and the other 99% are completely unhinged. so everything you’re consuming has first gone through the filter of "is this person weird and insane enough to make Instagram reels of themselves crying?" and if the answer is yes maybe their advice doesn’t apply to your life because you’re a normal person who would not do that.

i fucking wish using ai to churn out a ‘fic’ on ao3 was against their tos. it’s not funny or slay or whatever, it’s fucking lazy and a slap in the face to anyone who actually puts effort into their fics

I'm so glad that you agree that being LGBT+ is halal and supported by muslims! ❤️ Halalgbt 🙏

????¿¿¿¿

أعوذ بالله من الشيطان الرجيم...

Excuse me?? When have I ever in my entire existence on this earth ever agreed with or supported this fahshah and nonsense???

There is nothing halal about something that is inherently haram. Allah has set boundaries, and there is nothing halal or acceptable about people going against the set boundaries of Allah. The story of the people of Lut عليه السلام is literally there in the Qur'an. Allah destroyed an entire nation of people because of this disgusting and heinous sin, didn't even spare the wife of a Prophet because of her support of this sin, and y'all wanna parrot some nonsense about Islam allowing this? Please get a reality check.

May Allah rid this earth of this immorality and protect the ummah and our children from it, ameen.

Also, cuz I saw people talking about it; Leaks are generally done by disgruntled and/or clout-seeking employees or friends of those employees who they shared information. They rarely actually cost companies actual money beyond "opportunity costs" that can't actually be measured. By the same token; they don't benefit the company either even though talk of leaks can generate hype/interest in a game that people might have otherwise overlooked. But, you can't really measure that either. I'm not sure what competitor that has access to the information would care enough to leak it when it comes with a serious legal consequences if they're found out.

gave my change to a cold-looking older guy outside the 7-11 after buying an energy drink cuz i always try to give ppl cash when i can (god knows i've been in tight spots often enough myself) & he very fervently told me "blessings upon you and all of your loved ones for the next month. and then good things for the rest of your life. you're very pretty" which was WAY more intense than the more familiar "thank you" or "god bless." not sure if this is some kinda cultural-specific blessing i'm unfamiliar with but it DID feel like being transported into an old irish myth. this is a very normal down-on-his-luck weird kind human dude and i should not romanticize this kinda hardship but like. how could that NOT feel like being blessed by the actual fae i-

Begging true crime armchair detectives to understand that you are not Sherlock Holmes you are not special you will not solve the next big case you are doing nothing but putting misinformation out there and spreading harmful rumors and stereotypes. Real life and real tragedies are not murder mystery games you are actively harming people with your insane theories you are centering yourselves rather than the victims you are speaking over survivors and families and friends you are making up batshit insane lies just because you have a “feeling” and it’s not okay it’s not harmless it’s legitimately dangerous and heartless and it’s fucking disgusting how you refuse to see that

i've seen your tags in the post about people on f1twt stealing gifs and i wish it was mostly 15 years old idiots but the big majority is people in their 20s and even 30s sometimes

https://twitter.com/leclerclvr16/status/1767632833701711933

yeah tbh i'm not surprised this was mostly wishful thinking from my part.... 'who give af about gifs 😂😂' idk maybe the people who took the time to make them?

i'm afraid you can't reason with clueless and childish people like these

[goldiipond]

hate that thing tumblr app does now where trying to post a post with no tags brings up a prompt to add some tags to ‘help people find your post’ and i really hate that it even pops up when you try to save a post to your drafts. like girl its a draft. no one is finding it in there. i might not even find it to be honest

If u tell a trans disabled person to call the cops or tell someone else to call the cops abt them u do not care abt that person’s safety

shoutout to people who post for attention or validation or some other form of interaction, you deserve the compliments, attention and/or interaction you are seeking or recieve and are cool for being who you are!

[rosecrowned]

"margaery cares about the smallfolk" and "margaery interacts with them because it benefits her socially" are things that can both be true at the same time. her being aware of the social impact and desiring that doesn't negate the fact that she also does care. to her, what is the point of becoming queen if you're hated? she wants the people to adore her, but she also sees it as her duty to be this figure for them. if she truly hated them like she told the high sparrow (which was her telling him what she knew he *wanted* to hear from her) then she had plenty of ways to endear the smallfolk to her without physically putting herself in danger just to interact with them.

Anyways if you’re going to engage with my post about Megan Thee Stallion in order to spew hate and misinformation, I suggest you quit while you’re ahead. My blog isn’t a place to speculate about the pain and suffering a person has endured or for clout chasing. It is not a safe space for abuse apologists. Further bullshittery will be an instant block.

i think that “politically correct” ways of saying things are usually better/more accurate but i hate using pc terms that aren't the most commonly used term because im paranoid someone is going to think that im just using political correctness to appear woke or whatever without actually understanding or caring about things that actually matter. but i do like coming up with little ways to improve accuracy of language that literally only matter to me. no one can accuse me of being pc for clout if im the one who decided it was the pc way of saying something and didn't tell anyone else
