Thought I'd post some more propaganda, since people are really getting mad at ONLY /u/Spez for this. For the people in the back that are still using Reddit- this is ultimately the reason why I left Reddit.
TL;DR: Yes, /u/spez is the CEO of Reddit, but now he's beholden to the true owners of Reddit- Literal white supremacists, Chinese businesses looking to subvert American democratic values, and businesses that are desperately looking for new ways to make money after a pandemic has gutted the people dry of all the money it could take.
Let's get a little Pepe Silvia in here, shall we? Setting mood music:
youtube
Reddit was originally founded by /u/Spez (real name Steve Huffman), Alexis O'Hanion, and Aaron Swartz (RIP). In 2006, Conde Nast bought Reddit. So, if you read Vogue, Pitchfork, Wired, Vanity Fair, & the New Yorker, you may have gotten some of the same content owned by the same company- just through a magazine rather than Reddit. Also, since June 2020, Conde Nast has claimed that their advertising revenue has gone down 45% have gone down dramatically since the pandemic, alongside the cancellation of major publications by Conde Nast. Buut in 2017, Reddit was made into an independent subsidiary by Advance Publications. Sounds like an innocent enough name, until you look at which companies these lovely people own:
That Charter Communication, is just a fancy name for the lovely ISP known as Spectrum- Better known to some of our older folks as Time Warner Cable. You know, one of the ISPs so hated in the United States that they actively changed their name so that people wouldn't recognize them doing their dirty work again?
Isn't it interesting that one of the main complaints by Huffman is that Reddit isn't getting it's due in advertising revenue? Huh. I wonder where he's getting that from. But that's only one section of the shit sandwich. Let's talk about some of the lovely* investors that Reddit's had on aboard since 2006. The list is.... interesting. 2014: A group of investors, including Marc Andressen (an investor in nearly all of the major social media networks that exist), Peter Thiel (a literal white supremacist), and for some reason, Snoop Dogg and fucking Jared Leto. 2017: Advance Publications buys Conde Nast and subsequently Reddit, raising its valuation to about $1.8 billion. 2019: Tencent (you know, the CHINESE VIDEO GAME COMPANY THAT HAS BANNED PLAYERS FROM THEIR GAMES FOR SUPPORTING HONG KONG DEMOCRACY DEMONSTRATIONS) buys a 5% stake in the company. Did I mention that Tencent is also the largest gaming company in the world? 2021: Fidelity Investments(??? an insurance firm and mutual fund????) decides to add another $700 million to the pot, giving them a whole stake as well too. So, let's tie this all together. Yes, /u/spez is the CEO of Reddit, but now he's beholden to the true owners of Reddit- Literal white supremacists, Chinese businesses looking to subvert American democratic values, and businesses that are desperately looking for new ways to make money after a pandemic has gutted them dry. Of course Huffman is going to stay the course on this one- his job literally depends on it in the first place. All of the people that make this site (what other social media network do you know that doesn't pay it's mods and is valued at $10 billion dollars) ? have been tossed to the side in favor of making money. Remember this:
Reddit and its investors do not give a fuck about their community.
They do not give a fuck about their moderators. They do not give a fuck about disability rights. Most of all? They don't give a fuck about you.

well, not even trying to pitch lol
but honestly, if I wanted to sell sgu to anybody I would still give the same information, but would add more in the same unserious way
not everybody is as genius as me to start a show from s3 thinking it's s1 and realizing it only on episode 7 and then finishing s3 and starting s1 after :D honestly, that's how I watched for all mankind. but it is for all mankind, you can start from any season and be hooked up
what I am trying to say not everybody can enjoy a show from the middle of it
was I hooked up from episode 1 of sgu s2? hardly, when after 10 years I decided to rewatch it with already knowing the stargate world and vaguely remember sgu s1 - I mostly skipped it, cos what the fuck is happening, who are these people, I totally forgot who are Lucian alliance at all so I was like ????
I forgot who some characters are at all, all I remembered was the fact that Alaina Huffman is there, and Young and Rush, I remember TJ suffered a lot and I hated it, and I remember I loved whatever Young and Rush had, even if I hardly remembered what they had at all. And honestly, that's what made me think about rewatching sgu in the first place, I saw a gifset of Young and Rush from s1 and remembered that yeah, I kinda enjoyed them didn't I? not the show, them
so I would not suggest to jump into s2 not knowing anything about stargate and sgu s1 at all, cos while watching s2 I remembered some stuff and was like oh yeah, that happened, now I remember it was from sgu, now it makes more sense lmao
if you don't know anything about s1 - you won't be easily into s2, no matter how better it is for young and rush. honestly, still have fucking no idea what was in first few episodes of s2 :/ so I will watch them on my rewatch :D I remember dropping this show on those episodes back in 2013, but even if you start from idk later episodes of s2 it won't be the same. I am not sure I would ENJOY rush and young in s2 if I did not have some knowledge of their past.
if you mean chemistry as in 'being able to talk to each other and not wanting to strangle the other one' then yeah, season 2 does better job, but my god, there is chemistry in s1, you can literally cut it with a knife and ooof do I enjoy it? rewatching it just for that now, cos honestly
I enjoy both s1 and s2 young\rush in their own way, like I get how fucked up s1 is, but if I take things out of context, which I do all the time... well
my preferences are mine, so I do not expect you get what I mean, but I enjoy watching two people hating each other having such a chemistry I can interpret as something else.
As for coaxing people to watch sgu, well, I won't at all, if they never saw anything of stargate I do not want them to meet this universe through sgu, nope. I love stargate too much to make somebody hate this world just because sgu does such a poor job :/
btw if I ever convince somebody to watch something - it is through my gifs, because I usually write what I enjoy in the worst way possible, deliberately :D do not take anything I ever say seriously :)
Wanna watch something? I am not the person to sell the show to you, unless, it is for all mankind or an actually good show.
see, I do not think sgu is a good show, I think it has the potential of being a great show but it ends at it, so if you ask me why you should watch chilling adventures of sabrina or once upon a time for example, and mind you, I have made A LOT of gifs about these shows, I love them, but I also hate them, I will tell you all the worst things I can think about, because honestly, you should be prepared of what you are going into if you really wanna watch it and it will be 100% not serious review based on my love for the couple I enjoyed the most
will I be talking about Swan Queen being nice to each other in later seasons and having sweet moment with Henry? NOPE, I will be yelling about Emma choking Regina and pinning her to a wall and them punching each other in s1 because without tHAT - the moment of them being nice to each other won't work the same way somehow
hopefully, that explains why I write what I write, and if not... well, whatever, I guess.
also, sgu is much MUCH better than caos or ouat, so to be clear here :D
--
See, I don't see it with Telford at all? And don't try to tell me what you see there, because, don't take it personally, I don't care about their relationship and have no interest in understanding what you or anybody else saw there
it's more like, this one clicks for me, the other one does not. sometimes you just look at the character and it does not work for you, no matter how much you enjoy the actor's performance, or the actor himself, and while I acknowledge both of them on screen do amazing job at portraying both Telford and Rush, that chemistry does not work for me. So nope, for me it's not the same, or even similar to what Rush and Young have on screen.
I don't know, but I don't find them more interesting than Young\Rush. Matter of opinion, I guess.
yeah well, while I have interest in giffing sgu I will be giffing it, when I have all of sgu I might do a huge gifset of all of my fav moments or smt like that
Hi ❤️ I haven't gotten into star trek yet but I'm really curious because of your gifs, what's the situation with that young/rush pairing? 👀 They always look like they're trying really hard not to make out lol
Hi anon! I was heading for a bed right now, but this ask appeared and it made me giggle <3 yeah, they do look like that
Just to point out one thing, Young and Rush are from Stargate franchise, mainly Stargate Universe tv series, star trek is a whole different story, with its own characters who always look like they're trying really hard not to make out lol
If you have not seen star trek, go watch. If you have not seen stargate? do the same lol those are like magnum opuses of sci fi television, you won't be disappointed, but I suggest to watch sg1 first to know wtf is happening in stargate universe sometimes
I won't lie, stargate universe is not an easy to watch show, it's quite fucked up, sometimes boring, sometimes cool and interesting, as any other show, but as I said, you have to accept the fact that it's a mess of a show, the illogical behavior of characters, etc, and you will really enjoy it. Well, I enjoy rewatching it cos I found two disaster men having chemistry on screen fun and I want them either kill or fuck each other. My fun time includes imagining them in the worst bdsm relationship that you can come up with... yeah i said that
Anyway, my gifs did that before, made some people believe the ship exists, like madam spellman or swan queen, but those who trusted my gifs were disappointed that those were not canon <3 So nope, nothing even close to making out there T-T unfortunately, because I would pay to watch it
however
they do get close, very close sometimes
you will get killing part from kill or fuck, yay <3 they are the worst, like these characters have more or less normal relationship with everybody else on the ship, well, at least one of them, the other is hated by entire universe and yet he does not have anything even close to what these two have with each other with anybodyelse, whatever it is, nobody gets under their skin as one another, I know I am seeing what I wanna see, but they do look so obsessed with one another
they feel like those people who will do something out of spite just to annoy the other one
their "relationship" is a wild ride, you go from suspicious people who are forced to work with each other to actual attempts of murder
you just put two wild animals in closed space and watch them rip each other's throats and that's young and rush and you watch them fight with each other cos they don't know how to communicate with each other any other way
but they are also sad, very sad, pathetic men and you will enjoy watching them suffer and you will want to give them a hug and a blanket but they will probably fuck it up too and fight for our entertainment, but it gets better by the end and then the show was cancelled so that's it
#sgu#stargate universe#young x rush#lots of text#anyway im way too hungry to have a nice opinion about anything at all#also they will get to s2 eventually if they go through s1#and based on the second ask of anon i sold it lmao#more or less

@kookieyachi requested: i hate to be that one person but i doubt they'll increase the rate but imma try my best & start saving for zhongli & childe 😼🤚 anYWAY-, i was wondering if u could write another diluc x reader whr they're in a secret relationship (only kaeya knew somehow-) & one of the mcs & paimon heard rumours of diluc having a s/o & decide to follow him, to see him gg on a date w the reader or summ,,, hope its not too confusing haha🥺💖
pairing: diluc x gn!reader
style & genre: written; fluff
warnings: none
notes: i meant rng rates those screw me over when it matters but i hope we get good ones when their banners come in, i wish the best of luck to everyone pulling may we get our dream teams; THIS IS CUTE ty for all your requests you know what’s good 😪😪
the mc in this is aether because i love aether
“I hear someone has Master Diluc’s heart!”
“Is that so?”
“Aw, man! I wanted him...”
It’s been the talk of the town for longer than he expected and wanted it to be: Diluc’s love life. He was always the private one and never shared anything about his personal life so it was only natural that no one, minus Kaeya it seemed, had a clue as to who took Mondstadt’s most wanted bachelor.
“Are they sure he’s even with someone? Isn’t it just a rumor?” Paimon asks her travel companion as they make their way into the tavern for a late night drink. The pair had travelled back to the town for a few days and while walking through they listened in on what the townspeople were gossiping about this time around.
“Not sure, he doesn’t seem like the type. Why not ask him, Paimon?”
Paimon flies in front of his face and places her hands on her hips, “You don’t just ask him! He’s so secretive and... and well just that! Also, Paimon thinks he’d just avoid the question.”
“You won’t know it’ll work if you never try.” Aether suggests and opens the door to the tavern. He himself actually wanted to know the truth to those rumors because, well think about it, it’s Diluc and any information that made him seem more emotional than he let on was interesting. He steps inside, seeing the people inside drinking and laughing. They all greet him with their cheerful, yet drunk replies, and Diluc nods his head in acknowledgement.
“Welcome back. What’ll it be for tonight?” He asks them. Aether places his drink order and Paimon hovers over the bartender with a judging look on her face. Convenient that he is working tonight. He raises a brow, “Can I help you?”
“U-Uh,” she turns her attention to Aether who simply looks back at her and sips his apple cider vinegar, a look of you’re on your own for this one on his face. “Have you heard what’s being said around Mondstadt, Master Diluc?” She asks in a way to slowly lead into the main question. Diluc picks up a glass and shakes his head, turning around to place the item on one of the shelves.
“I’ve never paid attention to gossip if that’s what you’re referring to. And like I’ve said before,” he eyes the emergency ration suspiciously, “I don’t dwell on idle chat.” Those words, while they weren’t intended to be as cold as they sounded, prevented Paimon from pressing on. She pouts while flying, but her gaze lands on his hands. They are void of his usual gloves and Diluc wore them even while working. She brushes it off as a useless observation and the door of the tavern opens.
“Evening!” Charles greets them. He waves a hand to Diluc who finishes the last of the glasses he is cleaning, silently thanking the bartender for taking the rest of his shift. He walks out the back and Paimon floats up.
“Does he have something else to do? He usually stays for the rest of the night.” She questions Charles who shakes his head in amusement.
“He must be working hard,” Charles comments, “or maybe taking some time for himself.” Paimon perks up at what he says and she looks at Aether. The traveller finishes his drink and narrows his eyes at her.
“What?” He barely gets another word in before she is rushing out the door. “Paimon!” He places mora on the counter and bids Charles a good night before following her. The door swings open and Aether is met with Paimon flying in front of his face.
“We’ll follow him!” She states confidently, a glint in her eyes.
Aether stares at her blankly. “Uh, why?” Again, she doesn’t give him an answer when she sees a flash of red hair behind his head. They keep quiet and hide behind the stone building when they see Diluc look side to side, almost catching them in his sight.
“He’s definitely going somewhere!” She is much more invested in this than Aether thought, but his own curiosity was overpowering the possibility of getting caught by the pyro user as well. He wordlessly agrees and they quietly tread behind him through Mondstadt, hiding behind every pole and wall whenever they thought he believed someone was following him.
Minutes into their mission Aether catches sight of the Knight of Favonius building and his suspicions are raised. Diluc wouldn’t be caught dead near this place, what more just by walking by it? He stops at the side and Aether tugs his hovering companion away from Diluc’s line of sight when it opens, a familiar person stepping out.
“It’s--!”
“Honorary Knight!” Huffman interrupts Paimon’s exclamation as he rushes to the both of them. “Would you be able to help us out near Windrise? Quite a lot of slimes showed up and the other knights are preoccupied with their own missions. I know you just got back but...”
“We’re good!” Another knight shows up, running to them, “Captain Kaeya helped us out!” Aether looks back and forth between then before looking at the door. It seems that the person and Diluc had already left.
“Ah, I see. Sorry to intrude on your evening.” Huffman excuses himself and leaves with the other knight. Paimon flies towards the empty stairs, floating around premises as if looking for clues.
“Paimon saw y/n! Do you think they’re together?” She questions.
“Isn’t that too much of an assumption?” Paimon floats to Aether’s face with mock anger on her features. “Maybe they could just be well-acquainted.”
“Let’s just see who’s right then! I bet...” she places a finger to her chin, “...5000 mora!”
“You don’t even carry mora.”
--
The commissions burned you out but you are more than happy to see what awaits you after you leave the building. Bidding Jean goodbye, you settle into your coat and push the doors open. He’s standing there waiting like he said he would and you notice there is no one around, though you had an inkling that someone was watching you. You are broken out of your thoughts when Diluc’s warm hand cups your face. He was initiating more touches after becoming comfortable in your relationship, so you felt happy that he could do so outside though with no one to see.
To you, it was hard to believe that you managed to attract him in the first place, considering his many suitresses, but despite that he insisted that it was you he was after.
“Something the matter?” He asks gently, removing his hand when he could hear steps behind him. You shake your head and smile at him causing his heart to warm at the sight. “Good, shall we?”
Your dates aren’t like the usual ones. You walk around the sides of Mondstadt when everyone is asleep as you both share what has gone on in your day. Sometimes, you even take a stroll outside the city and sit under the large tree in Windrise, watching the stars twinkle. Going on many secret rendezvous were fun and brought an excitement and mystery to both of your lives when they occured.
But even so, sometimes you wondered what it would be like if the townspeople knew.
Diluc never explicitly mentioned that he wanted the whole town to know and you both came to the conclusion that keeping your relationship from the public would be beneficial. He was known to be aloof yet protective of Mondstadt. He had a reputation to uphold and the enemies would otherwise have vital information to his weaknesses if they came to know of your connection.
You know he loves you, he tells you every night before you have to part until you see each other the next day. And any doubt in your mind is gone when your hand is held tightly in his.
--
“Paimon, we’ve been following them for too long. They’re just talking.” Aether felt uncomfortable doing what they were doing and spying on the both of you. He watches the both of you engage in a regualr conversation. After losing sight of you at the Knights of Favonious building they glided around trying to track you both. He couldn’t see that your hands were intertwined due to how your coat concealed it.
“Ahh! Fine, we should go rest,” Paimon says defeatedly, “Paimon can’t believe she lost 5000 mora!” Aether rolls his eyes and jumps down from the roof to head to a nearby inn. The streets are quiet but there are audible footsteps from their right as they move through the houses.
“Hey, it’s nice to see you back in town.” Kaeya greets him with the usual lilt to his voice. “Why are you two still up?”
“We were following Master Diluc because we think he’s seeing someone!” Paimon really has no shame, does she? Aether thinks to himself and he looks up at the Cavalry Captain when the latter lets out a light chuckle.
“What an interesting activity... I do hope you find your answer,” Kaeya nods his head to direct it behind them. Aether and Paimon follow his direction and see the two they had been trailing for the past hours. “Good night.”
“I almost forgot!” The duo’s ears perk at the sound of your voice. You and Diluc are at the front of your home and their eyes widen at the sight of your hand in his. You reach into your coat pocket to pull out his gloves, “You left them here.”
“Thank you,” Diluc replies, lifting the hand he held to his lips and kissing the back. “Good night, my love.”
“Good night, Diluc.” The smile on your face is ever radiant and he leans down for his kiss. You oblige but pull away to lean closer to his ear, “It seems that we have company.” Your hold leaves him and you open your door, disappearing inside. Diluc turns his head and sees the shocked faces of the traveller and ration.
“Paimon wins.”

🎀 🎀 𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐅𝐈𝐓 𝐔𝐏𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄: 𝐏𝐈𝐍𝐊 𝐁𝐎𝐖 🎀 🎀
be amused @otverzhennyy enjoy ur pink bowed knight
It seems like it was a trend in Mondstadt that there was a slight alteration to everyone’s outfits. From the Acting Grand Master to the little outrider to the the lovely sisters, to even their newest astrologist...and all the young girls in town wanted to follow suit. Ah, fashion what a wonderous thing that was...
Unfortunately, that lead to the young girls following suit - mimicking their older sisters and their idols. Bold colors seemed to be the theme, atleast as far as the young girls picked up. So it only took a group of them who wanted to modify the knight’s uniform since it was so drab and boring. Sigh.
Huffman sighed as he had been wearing this bow all day. The other knights who had also fallen victim to them had already taken it off, but Huffman ( being Huffman ) didn’t mind it so much and he didn’t want to hurt the little girls feelings.
Things went on and he did his work like usual. Patrolling around the taverns, making his way up to do a quick check on a few patients and had avoided a certain diplomat all day. Ah he didn’t want to be caught dead—
❝ Viktor...I uh...er—... ❞ Scheiße
That’s all he could get out of his mouth as Huffman was caught by the diplomat. Shit. He knew this was going to happen. Somehow things just got around and Viktor was going to see him like this at some point in the day. It was unavoidable...but a knight could dream.
Don’t mind Huffman pressing his lips together as his cheeks were probably a bit red. He turned away as he pulled his notebook and pen closer to him. Huffman shouldn’t have gone into the church today, he could have pushed it off ‘til tomorrow but...ah he needed to get some work done here.
He sighed as he dared to look up at Viktor. Ah he hated this. Having this giant bow on his head, some of the nuns had even fixed it for him so it always stayed nice on him...clearly they were amused by it too. And apart of him hoped Viktor wouldn’t find it amusing as well. Lord Barbatos knows Viktor would and tease him about it.
❝ ...How bad does this look on me? ❞
#otverzhennyy#//it midnight#//i wanted huffman to have a giant bow#//be amused#//you get my tangent first draft mao#//it probs makes no sense#//but enjoy it#verse: { at your service }

⚔️💤 @sir-huffman.
Fingers carded through the other’s hair as Huffman silently read his book. It was like any other night for them. A few drinks were shared, a meal, and retiring to Huffman’s house for a few hours, it was just routine. However there was always something to add to it every so often and this time, well, Huffman spoke up.
“Viktor, I have a request if you don’t mind.”
Huffman didn’t stop his reading nor his constant petting. After all it wasn’t going to be a serious request. Just a thought that had been been on his mind for a while now.
“It’s been quite a while since I’ve had the opportunity to suck someone off. Although, honestly, I just want a cock shoved down my throat for a few minutes… ( a pause ) …you don’t mind indulging me a little, right?”
What did Huffman think about the fact that Viktor didn’t do... anything, really, but stare at him. The blond was usually the type to fall asleep right after he laid down, even more after a meal... but, right now, he was only looking up after having dozed off a bit, staring at Huffman’s peaceful face while he was reading. And every time the man moved, it made his heart soar. The diplomat was not someone who particularly enjoyed being touched, but just seeing Huffman absentmindedly being affectionate to him... there was nothing like it. He couldn’t sleep, almost couldn’t breathe : he just wished it lasted forever. There was nothing else they could do together that would make him feel safer.
It came down to the cost of Viktor hated starting to feel like Huffman’s residence was like a second home. ... he also hated how he audibly heard the ruffle of his own pants when he instantaneously became hard upon realizing what Huffman had just told him (and hoped he didn’t hear or realize).............. Viktor did his best to keep a straight face, reaching for his coat hanging above his head to cover himself.
The blond opened his mouth. Then closed it. Then opened it again. And closed it again. He didn’t know what to say.
“I―er―no. I mean. I don’t mind indulging you...”
The fact that the man didn’t move an inch was the most confusing part―did he need to get up ? Or stay put ? Could Viktor indulge too ? Was this an offer for full intercourse or did Huffman truly mean to keep it strictly to one-sided oral sex ? Any option was greatly appealing, but the lack of fine prints did make Viktor’s head come up with a hundred questions.
“Did you... mean... now... or... do I have to... clear up my schedule..?”

i’m primarily somewhere else today, but i saw the ship thing and wanted to give it a go ! even though there are some ships i’m partial to, it still pales to the dynamics built through ooc communication, mun interaction, and build up. that being said, i will ship things with no canon basis because i’m unhinged. these are dynamics on my wish list.
mondstadt:

olivia jade’s quest for redemption + if she deserves a second chance.
if you weren’t living under a rock in march 2019, then i’m sure you’re aware of the college admissions scandal that was exposed to the public. here’s a brief rundown: wealthy families who bribed prestigious colleges in order to secure a spot for their seemingly unqualified children, were exposed for breaking the law and faced the consequences. however, i use the word consequences in the loosest sense possible since our justice system isn’t exactly fair and balanced, as proven by the jail time served by these law breakers. anyway, among these criminals were actresses felicity huffman and lori loughlin, lori’s husband mossimo giannulli, and their 2 daughters olivia jade and bella.
there were countless people involved, but since these few individuals are celebrities and influencers (still hate that word), they got the brunt of the criticism since they’re in the public eye. the person i’m going to be focusing on in this post is olivia jade (pictured below), given the fact that she’s a youtuber, and someone i never would’ve expected to be caught up in something like this. that’s probably naive on my part since she’s a wealthy white woman in america, but i used to be a long time subscriber, so i felt like she wouldn’t be the type of person to do something so dishonest.
spoiler alert: she’s totally that type.
i’m not going to go too far into the past, because everyone else already has. instead, i’m going to give my opinions based on her current self. a couple of months ago ms. olivia jade graced our screens once again on the “Red Table Talk” and let’s be real, that was a mistake on her part. anyone who believes olivia’s a changed woman based on her words alone is incredibly naive. i’ll admit, when i was watching her interview, i did think she learned some lessons. she acknowledged how her privilege clouded her good judgment for most of her life, and she has since then made an effort to be better. however, when she was saying how she believes she deserves a second chance is where she lost me.
olivia’s 21, which is fairly still young. it’s great that she realizes she has privilege and whatnot, but she doesn’t deserve anything. no one owes her a single thing. if people don’t want to forgive her, they’re allowed to feel that way. her coming on a show hosted by black women (which is a problem on its own) for redemption, without demonstrating real growth and change is meaningless.
if someone ever asks for your forgiveness without showing you the steps they took in order to become a better person, you should not forgive them. i don’t want olivia to tell me why she deserves a second chance, i want her to show me. it was all talk, and no show. what that tells me is that she just wants to go back to making mediocre youtube videos and gaining back her influencer status without putting in the work to prove to people that she’s really learned her lesson. how does she expect her audience to be able to trust her without solid proof of her new self? she lost all integrity the second her name was printed in the magazines, and getting it back isn’t going to be an easy task.
the interview was also pretty lackluster, because they didn’t actually hit her with the tough questions. maybe it was for legal reasons, but why didn’t they question her more about her involvement in all of this? we know she posed for the rowing pictures, so why didn’t they ask her about that? she can’t plead ignorance, and then in the same breath go on and on about how people around her were doing the same things to get ahead simply because their wealth and privilege allowed them to do so. which is it, olivia? were you blissfuly ignorant of the whole scam or were you alright with it because it’s just what everyone does?
something i want to remind people is the infamous picture olivia posted in august 2019 in which she decided to flip everyone off and tagged multiple media outlets for good measure. now, maybe that was when she was still ignorant and unaware of her privilege, as stated in the interview, or maybe she just felt like making an ever bigger fool of herself. that’s something else i wish they had grilled her on. why make that post in the first place? what has she learned since she posted and deleted it? also, since they falsely applied as athletic recruits, they took 2 spots away from probably more deserving candidates. do they even realize that? do they feel sorry for that? what will they do to make up for their deplorable and selfish actions? i almost wish i had conducted that interview, since jada let her off the hook on seemingly all of the important topics.
i do think some people deserve a second chance, but only when they’ve proven that they’re a changed person. olivia uploading 2 new videos and going on about her business without showing any kind of growth is meaningless to me. time will tell if she’s a different person or not. on a personal level, i hope she has learned her lesson and understands how her and her family’s despicable actions indirectly and directly affected everyone. actions are worth more than words. until she can prove to the world at large that she’s not that ignorant, stupid girl who can’t take accountability for her actions, i really don’t want any part in helping to restore her integrity and good girl image. i don’t wish anything bad on her, but until she stops being all talk and no show, she shouldn’t expect any kindness or forgiveness from the public anytime soon.

Self-Released Comics from 2020
A bunch of zines came out this year that I liked but haven’t written anything about because I’ve been working under the assumption that my liking the artists involved is unsurprising. But I might as well, I like them more than much of what’s offered by larger publishers and they’re probably doomed to some degree of obscurity. I should excerpt images but don’t feel like doing that. All of these would be in consideration for a theoretical “best of the year” list, but I generally get conservative with those and limit it to five books that are widely available as a concession to an imagined general audience.
Gonzales, by Matthew Thurber and Ric Royer, available through Matthew’s online shop
The parties involved in this comic’s creation would probably prefer I not mention that Ric, the writer, was “cancelled” and made a pariah in Baltimore (and I believe Providence too) due to his behavior in relationships, which had a marked pattern of manipulation and psychological abuse. I don’t know how many people outside these places, in the broader comics community, are aware of such things, but certainly some people are probably buying this comic not knowing anything about it who would be uncomfortable with the concept if they knew. I support Matthew’s willingness to support his friend as an artist by collaborating with him in a context where it’s unlikely women would come into his orbit (this isn’t to imply there aren’t women in comics, only that there aren’t festivals happening right now) but not so much so I can look the other way entirely. If I had to have hand-wringing conversations with Baltimore friends, you have to have them in your head: Heads up for those who don’t like it when authors are creeps.
The comic itself is pretty good! It’s a satire about the Satanic Panic of the 1980s that basically works as a kid’s comic, where a superhero named Gonzales teaches kids to overcome their parents’ fears. Thurber’s a great cartoonist, and I don’t think he loses too much working from a script here. There’s less improvisatory surrealism and more general storytelling economy.
Everglide by Carlos Gonzalez, available through Wasp Video Roadhouse
This kinda feels like Carlos’ eXistenZ, by which I mean it’s about humans “jacking in” to video game worlds where they can run around. Also I think eXistenZ is the best Cronenberg movie, and who knows how good this comic will turn out? I like the serialized minicomic format. I do feel like the ideal format for this would be typical comic proportions, sold in retail stores monthly, and Carlos’ thin line that delineates the shape of a figure but none of its weight or texture could confront readers with its seeming amateurism. But alas! No one can afford to put out black and white genre comics in stores regularly these days. As a minicomic with so many pages in each issue, the focus on the narrative, and each issue feels satisfying on those grounds, building out its world.
Detective Double Digest by Drew Lerman and Pete Faecke, available at The Stink Hole
Drew Lerman takes his Snake Creek characters out for a detective caper with gags about pissing and a plot about cryogenic freezing. Pete Faecke, who I’m unfamiliar with, but is in the new Bubbles writing about the horse sequence in Jimbo Adventures In Paradise, does a comic where multiple people huff gasoline. It’s great. There’s plenty of jokes, an interesting tone, but also a good deal of narrative space being covered in a short amount of pages. The contrast between art styles works to the advantage of each, with Faecke sort of approximating a stiff “golden age” style while Lerman works in a scribblier cartoonier form, closer to a comic strip like Barney Google. Faecke also did a similar format split with A.T. Pratt of western comics that looks pretty good too.
Whisnant by Max Huffman, available at Motion Goods
I loved reading this comic as pages would pop up on Max’s social media feed. Honestly considered buying a page of the original art to finance the printing of the minicomic version. Improvised goofball comedy, tells a story, interrupts that story, then comes back to it, the way the gags and callbacks work is insane in this. I kinda hope he continues with it but maybe it won’t work if it attempted to function like an ongoing comic and not just a stream of consciousness thing that’s disinterested in resolution. On any given page, it feels either like Huffman is going for some weird gag or he’s exploring the form and abstracted geometry of page layout and shape. The amount of panels per page is generally pretty low, so it makes for a breezy minicomic, but reading it online a page at a time I always imagined it at classic comic book size, feeling like part of the point was the subversion of expectations of a classic “teen” comic like Archie.
Hubert by Elijah Brubaker, available at his Patreon
Elijah put up a few issues of this for free as PDFs somewhere but that might’ve been a limited time thing, and it’s worth tossing him some small amount of money to get these. They’re comedies about being an obnoxious dumbass who’s dumb and horny, sorta sitcom-y, sorta weird indie movie vibe, but with a cartoon’s sense of freedom from consequences. Strange and likable, uncontrived, honest to its world of slackers. Would be a good alt-comic in the tradition of Hate or any number of forgotten Slave Labor comics. Hubert the character’s abstracted cartoon shape is kinda like Ben Jones’ Alfe but he ends up in a house full of women and there’s a flirtatious chemistry in his interactions as opposed to Jones’ sexless goofball shenanigans. Since Brubaker’s I think most known for his Wilhelm Reich bio-comic and is currently working on a Charles Manson thing, this feels more “accessible” to a certain alienated pandemic brain looking to live vicariously through fiction while maybe the other stuff is more saleable to libraries. That may sound more cynical than I intend, I mean this comic is fun and it would be nice to encounter it on someone’s coffee table when you’re at the house getting drunk and stoned in a different era. The artist is unemployed and currently only making money from his Patreon, he deserves people kicking in donations for this thing.
Dog Biscuits by Alex Graham, viewable at Instagram for the time being
For a fictionalized document of the pandemic times we’re living in, currently being serialized on Instagram, running in sequences of panels you click through, I like this better than Crisis Zone. It seems close to wrapping up, at which point Alex will collect it into a self-published book I think will make a worthwhile purchase. As time has gone on, and the strip’s moved away from discussing protests and the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone overtly, settling in with the romantic drama of its small cast as they try to find their way in a world where it feels like every stupid asshole might have exposed themselves to COVID already and now thinks nothing of exposing you as well feels fraught as any editorial cartooning, a sense of desperation to find joy underlies a multipage XXX sequence of characters boning. The Instagram comments are lit up with people seemingly familiar with only reading YA getting really emotionally invested and being extremely judgmental of the characters, with maybe the weirdest moment from my vantage point was someone asking the author what a character’s astrological breakdown was. These reactions do bring home how thought out, alive, and well-observed these characters feel.

I'm glad they clearly had so much fun on the set with this stuff especially knowing what comes next IRL :( she's right to be worried about his cholesterol just waiting for the other shoe to drop with something terrible befalling this group watching dean run in that outfit is hilarious poor jack doesn't deserve all this but I'm glad that she's helping him kind of work through the grief where the fuck is cas so it seems like ultra fucked up to be watching them do no-knock shit into people's homes and shooting them no questions asked, and it has always seemed fucked up but right now the methodical nature of this and their goofy smiles taking packed lunches while setting out to murder people minding their own business is not cool with me and never has been the 50s were bad, actually god sam has the hammer of thor. thank fuck. is it may? is it sam's birthday in-universe? what files was she going through, eyes emoji jack is smart, actually oh boy is she brainwashed, are they keeping her held hostage with magic or something, because the men of letters don't give a FUCK about monsters and will use them jack's a millennial and can look up instructions for how to operate a reel to reel and 100% knows what it is because he lives in the bunker "son of a bitch" jack's spending too much time with dean sam has a big date huh, I hope it's with eileen "abercrombie and bitch" IT IS EILEEN!!! dean should definitely be nicer to sam poor jack has no one to turn to for help :( where is cas!!!! can they not afford to pay misha also I don't feel sorry for nazis there are a lot of beheadings on this show, pulling someone's head off definitely seems like yanking on a plant vs pruning it with sharp pruning shears or whatever oh you're shitty lady "do you ever think they're scared of what you'll do to someone else" uh yeah there was that time they locked him in a coffin please stop hurting this child if she's so sure sam and dean would approve then she'd do it when sam and dean can see her yeah I am not surprised she was poisoning him MAKE THE BUNKER SAFE AGAIN!!!!! maga shit, get rid of all the monsters, says a monster the writing here is.... iffy. little heavyhanded dean's thinking about it, that's what's so fucked. like "look I already tried to kill him one time" we just keep comparing jack to snakes but I prefer when yockey's doing it sam looks so much like vincent from silent hill 3 in this outfit sam really is the smart one. jack's a child, he hasn't had a lot of experience with this. dean...

"it's an interdimensional geoscope" "I looked into it earlier and didn't see anything" "oh that's... not good" I'm glad sam and jack are talking about how jack is feeling and if he needs to talk I'm glad dean is cooking happy birhday jack where is castiel for this I have mixed feelings but I guess this turned out okay, still waiting for DEAN TO APOLOGIZE TO JACK? but dean never apologizes to anyone. the cake is a step in the right direction but cake doesn't make up for locking him in a box and threatening to kill him several times over, sorry

2nd Generation Family Overview
I’m glad to announce that Jillian won with 63% of the votes and will be the next head of the family! It was close for a while - the vote got stuck at 50/50 for a day or so, I don’t know how I would have done if it had stayed that way.
I don’t know when I’ll publish the next chapter, I’ve been lacking inspiration this week, but I’ll be back soon.
Thank you to everyone who voted, it really means a lot to me.
TAIGA BAYLESS (BORN AISAKA) (1800-1860)
Traits: Absent-Minded, Shy, Irresistible, Hot-Headed, Hopeless Romantic.
Lifetime Wish: Martial Arts Master.
Love interests: Oliver Greenwood (former lover, deceased), Skeet Bayless (former husband, deceased), Tay Bayless (lover).
Family: Ami Huff (daughter), Calvin Dipperson (son-in-law), Adora Bayless (daughter), Steve Bayless (son), Jillian Dipperson (granddaughter).
Background: Raised in a Japanese-Dutch family, Taiga had to flee from her abusive grandfather who wanted to marry her to a drunkard against her will. She started a new life in Twinbrook, where her legacy and her story began. Taiga was a single mother that struggled between poverty and her desperate love for Skeet Bayless, a married man who were also the father of her daughter. After Skeet’s wife died, he finally married Taiga and moved in with her, putting an end to years of hardship. They had two additional children together before Skeet’s passed away. After her husband’s death, Taiga devoted herself to her garden and her martial arts skills. She eventually managed to become a Grand Master after an intensive training in China, and was granted enough money by the Emperor to build a mansion on her land where she spent her old days. She became the lover of her late husband’s son before she passed away at 60.
AMI HUFF (BORN AISAKA) (1823-?)
Traits: Genius, Loner, Frugal, Shy, Unflirty.
Lifetime Wish: Animal Rescuer.
Love interests: Calvin Dipperson (former lover), Broderick Huff (husband).
Family: Skeet Bayless (father), Taiga Bayless (mother), Chase Bayless (half-sister), Tay Bayless (half-brother), Calvin Dipperson (brother-in-law), Adora Bayless (sister), Diane Bayless (sister-in-law), Steve Bayless (brother), Jillian Goode (niece), Josh Huff (son), Clay Bayless (nephew), Shana Bayless (niece), Lily Dipperson (niece), Andrew Goode (grandnephew).
Background: Ami was a lonely but adventurous girl who grew up playing in the swamps, and who loved horses more than humans. She had seen her mother struggle most of her life, and she was determined to help. But she couldn’t forgive her mother when she decided to marry Skeet Bayless, the worthless progenitor she hated, and the source of all of their problems. She categorically refused to take his name, and insisted on keeping her mother’s name, Aisaka. The only good thing he brought with him was his mare, Bella, who became Ami’s best friend. As a teenager, she spends most of her time helping at home and riding her horse. Her worst fear was to go back to poverty: she didn’t like to take risks, and was very happy with her family’s frugal lifestyle before her mother had a mansion built. Growing up, she became a horsewoman and adopted five mares she loved as if they were her children. When her sister married, it was the first time in her life that she was living under the same roof of someone she didn’t share blood with, and she couldn’t help but falling in love with her brother-in-law, Calvin. They became lovers until Adora caught them, and she was forced to leave her home. She didn’t know she was pregnant, and since Calvin would not reply to her letters she had to raise her son on her own. When her son was four, she met Broderick Huff, the creationist butler of a rich man living out of town called Angel McConnell. They married, and her new husband adopted her son.
CALVIN DIPPERSON (1833-?)
Traits: Frugal, Socially Awkward, Bookworm, Hopeless Romantic, Good.
Lifetime Wish: Heartbreaker.
Love interests: Adora Dipperson (wife), Ami Huff (former lover).
Family: Taiga Bayless (mother-in-law), Ami Huff (sister-in-law), Steve Bayless (brother-in-law), Guadalupe Goode (son-in-law), Jillian Goode (daughter), Josh Huff (son), Clay Bayless (nephew), Shana Bayless (niece), Lily Dipperson (daughter), Andrew Goode (grand-son).
Background: Calvin was born in the haute bourgeoisie of Norwich. His mother died in childbirth and his father passed away too when he was a teenager, leaving him as the only heir of their fortune. He met Adora in senior year of business and asked her to marry him as soon as he graduated knowing that she still had three years to go before she would obtained her degree in biology, and he settled in her mother’s mansion in Twinbrook. He immediately started to invest in the local businesses, and found a business partner in the person of Angel McConnell, a bourgeois who lived out of town; he occasionally teaches economics in high school. While his wife was away, he got closer and closer to her sister Ami, and they eventually became lovers until Adora caught them and kicked Ami out. This signed the destruction of his marriage: he had betrayed his wife’s truth, and since they couldn’t divorce they were stuck together... He eventually managed to rebuild Adora’s truth until she learnt that he sexually assaulted their governess. In the meantime, he had learnt that Ami was pregnant when she was kicked out of the house, and that he had a secret 4 years-old boy called Josh. He asked Ami to not make things worse and go away, and he never heard from her again. As time passed, he became more and more conservative and christian, and when his daughter gave birth to a son, he placed great hopes in him and started to scheme with his associate in order to dispossess his daughters so his grandson could inherit instead.
ADORA DIPPERSON (BORN BAYLESS) (1836-?)
Traits: Shy, Friendly, Can’t Stand Art, Good, Neat.
Lifetime Wish: Become A Creature-Robot Cross Breeder.
Love interests: Calvin Dipperson (husband).
Family: Skeet Bayless (father), Broderick Huff (brother-in-law), Taiga Bayless (mother), Chase Bayless (half-sister), Tay Bayless (half-brother), Ami Huff (sister), Diane Bayless (sister-in-law), Steve Bayless (brother), Guadalupe Goode (son-in-law), Jillian Goode (daughter), Josh Huff (nephew), Clay Bayless (nephew), Shana Bayless (niece), Lily Dipperson (daughter), Andrew Goode (grandson).
Background: Adora’s childhood was happy. When she was a baby, she received a lot of love from her father, and a lot of attention from her half-brother and her sister when she was a toddler. Unlike her sister, she preferred to stay inside and read a good book near the fireplace. She always had all that she needed, and unlike Ami who was turned toward the past, Adora was looking forward to the future: as the heiress, she wanted to make a name for herself and pull her family towards modernity and progress. She spent the end of her childhood and her teenage years in the boarding school of Fort Starch, and then she went to university where she studied biology and developed a strong interest in the theory of transmutation of species. In university she met Calvin Dipperson, who became her husband a year after they first met. After she graduated, she started to work in a laboratory in Twinbrook and aside from that she kept working on personal projects and studying evolutionists’ thesis. She was so absorbed with her work she didn’t realize her husband was cheating on her with her sister Ami, and she kicked her out of the house. Her husband finally managed to win her truth back, but he lost it right away after she discovered he had been sexually assaulting the governess. She placed her hopes on her first daughter and wished that she would follow her steps, but Jillian was more interested in upper-class girls’ hobbies than in science, which had been a strong disappointment for Adora... Her personal work eventually paid off, and she managed to be noticed for her shattering discovery by the British Intelligence. She had been secretly working for the Queen since then.
STEVE BAYLESS (1837-?)
Traits: Ambitious, Lucky, Supernatural Skeptic, Unstable, Animal Lover..

FRIENDS. As you may know, I’ve been doing this remix project where I write an alternative version of defunct author cleanwhiteroom’s Stargate Universe fic Force over Distance. This remix has everything: psychic bond, posthumanism, M-theory, enemies to lovers, an AI that sometimes looks like Daniel Jackson and sometimes like John Sheppard, an ancient alien form of proto-Latin that I’m conlanging up...
Have you thought: MAN, I wish I could read this remix, but unfortunately I have never read nor will I ever in ten million years read this fic? GOOD NEWS: I am now writing from the beginning, so you can read along without any prior knowledge!
Have you thought: MAN, I wish I could read this fic, but unfortunately I am not a Stargate Universe fan (IS ANYONE), GOOD NEWS: you don’t have to be— especially because the fic is quite divergent from the show. Here is a complete guide to the important characters and concepts, for anyone who might be interested in joining me on this posthumanist psychic bond ancient alien journey:
The concept of Stargate Universe is that a ragtag bunch of humans are gated onto a million-year-old Ancient spaceship that is constantly traveling through a region of space impossibly distant from Earth. To understand that, you have to understand both the idea of a stargate (a magic circle that you “dial” to create a wormhole through space that transports you to another planet) and the Ancients (literally Ancient Aliens who looked like humans and interbred with humans and AS PART OF A PLOT TO CAUSE MY EARLY DEATH THROUGH STROKE spoke Latin-ish, and who were super technologically advanced and were responsible for the stargates and the city of Atlantis). A long time ago the Ancients died of a plague, and those who didn’t die figured out how to ascend (transform themselves into pure energy in order to exist on another plane).
The Destiny (the million-year-old Ancient spaceship) is reachable only by dialing a Very Special nine-chevron stargate address. Because of this, the secret Earth Air Force program responsible for the stargates established a base called Icarus (GREAT WORK GUYS! A+ NAMING!) on a planet they could use for fuel to dial the address. However, the base was attacked by evil space empire the Lucian Alliance just as Nicholas Rush figured out how to do the dialing. Rather than evacuate everyone to Earth or another location, Rush decided to dial the nine-chevron address rather than lose his chance to do so. That meant everyone who evacuated got stuck on Destiny, because they had no way to dial home. Their only contact with Earth is through the Ancient communication stones, a set of magic rocks that, because the Stargate writers don’t understand that Cartesian Dualism Is Bad, can switch a person’s consciousness with a person at the other end of the device on Earth.
Characters:
Nicholas Rush (Robert Carlyle): Rush is a surly Glaswegian mathematician who is constantly engaged in about thirty-seven secret plots at any one time. He tragically suffers from Dead Wife Syndrome, a serious disorder afflicting men on our TV sets. His wife, Gloria, was a concert violinist who died of cancer. For a while, Destiny’s computer was appearing to him as her. One time Colonel Young left Rush on an alien planet for dead after Rush framed him for murder. Then Rush got picked up by the Nakai, who put him a wetsuit (good work, guys) and tortured him (bad work, guys) until he escaped (good work, Nick).
Everett Young (Louis Ferreira): Young is “”in charge”” of the Destiny, except for when people are trying to mutiny against him. His principal character trait is Military Guy. He split up with his wife, Emily, after having an affair with TJ, but then they kind of got back together, but then Telford split them up again, and oh my god this plotline was so stupid that remembering it is sending me into a coma. Also this one time Young had to mercy-kill the wounded Hunter Riley, As Men Do.
Tamara “TJ” Johansen (Alaina Huffman): an Air Force medic who ended up being de facto doctor on the Destiny. She was pregnant with Young’s child (a daughter she was planning to call Carmen), but then either miscarried OR something spooky and mysterious transported the baby to another dimension and oh my god I thought I had come out of my coma but it was just a dream and I am in hell. She also found out through time shenanigans that she is going to develop ALS in the future and die from it.
David Telford (Lou Diamond Philips): a sinister, devious, and super hard-core Air Force colonel whose loyalties are always slightly unclear. (For a while he was brainwashed by the Lucian Alliance.) He wasn’t part of the Destiny crew, but he ended up on Destiny a few times due to various shenanigans. One time future!Rush killed Telford, then downloaded an Ancient database into his head and committed suicide. So they have a totally normal relationship.
Ronald Greer (Jamil Walker Smith): a soldier with a temper/self-control problem who, despite having no character traits except for being angry, is actually really fun to watch.
Chloe Armstrong (Elyse Levesque): the daughter of a senator, who was working as his aide when they ended up on Destiny. He died. She got abducted by the Nakai, who genetically altered her, which made her dangerous (which got fixed) and a math genius (which didn’t).
Eli Wallace (David Blue): a nerd self-insert OCn MIT dropout who solved an impossible math problem in a video game. That won him an involuntary trip to Icarus Base, which is how he ended up on the Destiny.
Camile Wray (Ming-Na Wen): an International Oversight Advisory (the UN body overseeing the stargate stuff) politician who ends up in charge of non-military stuff on Destiny. She has a girlfriend back on Earth.
Matthew Scott (Brian J. Smith): a young soldier whose main character trait is that he’s dating Chloe.
The Science Team: Brody (laid back dude who makes moonshine as a hobby), Volker (hapless guy whom Rush hates), and Park (sweet woman who is dating Greer) work on the Destiny science team, which exists for Rush to yell at sometimes. Dr. Franklin used to work on the science team, until they discovered a neural interface chair on the ship— the Ancients use to build these interfaces that would allow the user to do stuff like download a database of knowledge or fly a city or interface with weapons and stuff— and it fried his brain and uploaded his consciousness to the ship.
The Lucian Alliance: a bunch of Lucian Alliance people boarded Destiny at one point. Imagine a bunch of D-list actors dressed in leather pretending to be space mercenaries. A couple of them were “good” in the sense that they were “morally not terrible:” Ginn (a young hacker whom Eli fell in love with, but then who got killed later, but her consciousness got uploaded to Destiny’s computer, and it’s SO not worth going into) and Varro (a dude TJ fell in love with despite the fact that he looks like a weird muscular bird).
The Nakai: blue insectoid aliens who are always chasing Destiny and trying to conquer it. They mentally torture/interrogate anyone they come in contact with, preferentially by sticking them in tanks full of water with psychic transmitters on their heads.
Also: remember Daniel Jackson, from SG-1? Keep him in mind.
John Sheppard and Rodney McKay, too.
In conclusion,
(I could not find a source for that gif of Rush, so let me know if it’s yours.)

Reddit: The so-called “front page of the internet” that’s equal parts fun and frightening
Although it describes itself as the “front page of the internet,” Reddit has always been a bit of a mystery to me, and that’s saying a lot for an alleged millennial who came of age with the world wide web. Sure, it pops up alongside Quora every single time I conduct a random Google search, but aside from being co-founded by Serena Williams’ husband (sorry but I’d never heard of Alexis Ohanian until they wed, so this is who he’ll always be to me), there’s little to nothing I know about the site, who uses it, or why. As it turns out, I am totally in the minority, as Reddit is one of the most popular sites on the internet. I think I owe it to myself, and to Queen Serena, to take a deep dive.
(Serena Williams, literal royalty, and guest... who apparently co-founded Reddit) Prior to this week, the extent of my knowledge of Reddit was that it was some sort of online message board where people shared weird memes, commented on obscure stories, and in some extreme cases, gathered in secret to plan acts of violence or harm. Needless to say, I thought Reddit was a pretty weird place that I should probably avoid. To a degree, some of these things are true. But in its purest form, Reddit is simply a user-focused way to read the news you care about.
Reddit, then and now Launched in 2005 by recent college graduates Steve Huffman and the aforementioned Alexis Ohanian, Reddit has surged in popularity with more than 430 million active monthly users. According to Tech Junkie, Reddit “works like a newspaper, but with users who are entitled to their own opinion.” At its core, Reddit is a news and topic message board. At first glance, what I find incredibly interesting is just how no frills the site is. No fancy graphics or complicated code, Reddit looks like something I could’ve created on my old school Macintosh desktop from middle school. And from what I can gather, that vintage appeal is part of what Reddit users seem to love. It doesn’t feel especially polished, rather, it’s a site that really feels like theirs. The content you see (or, don’t see) is populated based on the interests of its many many millions of users. Rather than a homepage editor determining which stories and topics to feature prominently, Reddit users submit posts which other users then either “upvote” if they like it, or “downvote” if they’re not impressed. Posts and content with the most upvotes naturally move up the rankings and therefore show up in more feeds and are shown to more users, while less popular downvoted content gets pushed down and eventually out. Content is categorized into different categories, or “subreddits,” with each subreddit filtering onto the main Reddit page. This gives any single piece of content, depending on the number of upvotes it receives, the power to potentially reach the front page of the site. Ok so, the whole “front page of the internet” thing is making a lot more sense now.
Mixed feelings on Reddit users Admittedly, I have my own assumptions about the type of person who is probably active on Reddit, and it’s not the most favorable assumption. I’m certain that this is due to some of Reddit’s more controversial aspects. Because the site requires little more than a username and valid email address to join, it fosters an element of anonymity, which can be both good and bad. For years, there have been Reddit communities bound by extremist views and hate speech, as well as the vile and intrusive leaks of private photos of celebrities (most of these victims, of course, have been women). Based on my own internal moral compass, it can be hard to overlook these controversies and see Reddit as a valuable media source, and to think very highly of anyone who uses the site regularly. Speaking of, it’s incredibly difficult to determine exactly who is using Reddit because of that aspect of anonymity, but it’s fairly easy to guess. By citing third-party polls on general internet usage, TechCrunch was able to make an educated (and likely valid) guess that Reddit’s users skew overwhelmingly young, white, and male. Data from the Pew Research Center suggests this group may account for as much as 71 percent of Reddit users. There’s still some good (and some brands!) Still, I wouldn’t want to say that Reddit is all bad. Nor would I want to assume that every single user on the site is there for nefarious reasons. Reddit is also known for extremely positive communities, or subreddits, that share uplifting news and offer a breath of fresh air among the 24/7 news cycle where most headlines revolve around death and despair (or have all seemed to, as of late). For example, the Made Me Smile subreddit has 2.4 million members and shares nothing but heart-warming content intended to brighten up your day. Subreddits like these are a reminder that the world can (and should) be a kinder, more wonderful place.
(brb, heart melting)
Much to my surprise, there are some brands that have successfully tapped into Reddit’s unique functionality as a marketing tool. Luxury car manufacturer Audi, for example, took advantage of the platform’s popular Ask Me Anything series (where celebrities answer pretty much any user-submitted question) by having celebrities host their own AMA’s while speeding around in the latest Audi model. Kind of weird, and I really couldn’t tell you if it helped Audi sell any more cars, but at least they tried? Marriott also tried their hand at a Reddit campaign, challenging users to “get teleported.” The hotel chain partnered with Oculus to create virtual travel experiences, then challenged Reddit community members to respond to the thread explaining why they deserved to be teleported, allowing users to be as creative as they wanted with their entries. When it was all said and done, Marriott Hotels achieved almost 200,000 clicks on its contest page and Reddit's (then) highest ever user-generated content for sponsored posts. Not to mention, Marriott won a Webby Award for their efforts.
(Olivia Munn. In an Audi. Doing an AMA. Unimpressed.)
Main takeaways Based on what little knowledge I was able to glean on Reddit from my research this week, I see a whole lot of potential good, but at the same time, way too much bad to ever be truly comfortable as a user of this site. While I do enjoy the user-focused nature of Reddit, I worry about just who those users are, why they’re there, and whether that makes Reddit a safe space for me to be. Yet and still, I commend brands that are creative enough to try their hand at adding Reddit to their digital communications strategy. In all honesty, were I challenged to use Reddit in this way, I might find it fun and creative. As for my personal media consumption, however, I’ll continue to stay far away.
Until my next random Google search lands me on somebody’s subreddit. Again.

spn 9x20 + 9x21, liveblog, collected posts (all 17 of them) or as i like to call it: i don’t like bloodlines, so I didn’t rewatch it, I have not more than 3 thoughts about that episode. The next episode has Crowley time, Abaddon’s time running out, angel mocking TM, hugsssssss and Dean being a garbage man because of the mark.
9x20:
Oh no, it’s the bloodlines episode… Imma skip it.
(All I remember is that it’s monsters fighting in the city & a black woman dies for man pain. Im decided to read the transcript to like see if theres good lines… I will criticize it based on that bc im not wasting 40 minutes. There’s agents Sam & Dean there. Then we have a really weird line about penetration and murder with a gun? Why? I don’t like it. Then we have the reveal of the Monster Families running the city, which is WILD! Sam and Dean kill some monsters and the main dude character (a black male main characters in a motw show could have been interesting though) has an interesting background story revealed, but none of that sounds remotely interesting enough to ever make me want to watch this bs)
9x21:
Old timey Scotland times
#so something to do with Crowley probably
The one angel dude really has no friends
#its so awkward asdfgh #id feel sad if he wasn’t such an idiot
Literally none of the angel actors are scary
#they are all baby faced and adorable
Cas!!! My boy’s back!!! HELL YEAH!!!
Second Sastiel hug this season
#I’ll never be over that one very awkward moment where Cas just leaves his hand on Sam’s side for just like a second too long #dating :P
I am so bored of Crowley. I’m also bored of the angel drama, but demon drama is not any better.
#IM TIRED
Crowley’s torture torture torture line is funny though
Sam just roasting the angel dude to get him to talk asdfghjk
#its so funny
Sam: “Buddy, the gates are sealed. No one can get in.” laughs condescendingly
The angel dude: “You’re wrong, I know everything, it’s time to spill all my state secrets!!!”
Abaddon and Crowley as disappointed demon for Crowley’s stupid son is so funny
#are you angels? We must be in heaven! #both: wow…..
Sam feels guilty for Kevin, I’m gonna cry
“I’ve seen you through Sam Winchester’s eyes and he trusts you. You have a reputation for honor.” I Scream
#the sastiel is strong
Dean just whipping the corpse knife on his jacket is so disgusting
#i hope it doesn’t survive this episode
Alaina Huffman’s evil laugh is so weird
#that whole scene is so over the top #like I know were killing the big bad but asdfgh
Oh Fuck, I forgot Dean literally lifts Abaddon when he stabs her with the sword. Like she’s floating in the air. Because that totally makes sense. He just picks her up with the sword. One handed. How strong that man is!
Also I still don’t get that they don’t just kill Crowley
#he deserves it #i just really hate crowley

Supernatural Survey
@deanssweetheart23 is the lovely person who tagged me! Also, I have a long weekend and now I’m starting to get bored, so I took the time to add gifs to each question. I probably spent more time on this than I should have ;)
1. What season did you start watching Supernatural? Season 9 was airing when I started watching during my senior year in high school. So my first real season finale where I had to wait for the next season was Dean becoming a demon. Talk about horrible!
2. Who was the first character you fell in love with?
Deanie Beanie! I just fell in love with his season 1 swagger and joking and flirting and confidence and hiding his emotions and everything.
3. Who was a character that you hated at first but grew to love? Meg 2.0. I guess it was kind of what the writers wanted, though. Cause I liked Meg 1.0 at first, then I started hating her. So when Meg 2.0 came around, I hated her. However, she had that redemption arc and I started liking her again.
4. Which character would you most want to be in a long-term relationship with?
Sam. Dean. Sam. Dean. Sam Dean Sam Dean HOW DO I CHOOSE? Okay, long-term? Probably Dean. I feel like Sam would be more attentive and pay much closer attention to me than Dean would. I mean, Dean is overprotective, sure, but he wouldn’t be suffocating with his affection, you know? And I’m very independent so it’s very important to me that I’m not drown in affection and stuff.
5. If you could go on just one date with one character, which one would you choose?
One date? Let’s see... Charlie, probably.
6. What would you do on the date?
Some nerdy shit. LARP or conventions or bookstores or dance party or binging a TV show or whatever. Seriously I think that a date with Charlie would be so much fun!!
7. Which character would you most want to be like?
Jody. I love her. She is so fucking strong. Like, she lost her son and husband in that zombie attack thing, but then she still stayed in town and didn’t run away to get her head together or whatever. And she became the fucking sheriff!! As if that’s not enough to prove her strength, she also becomes a badass hunter, all while balancing a regular job. C’mon! Not even Sam and Dean can walk that line between normal life and hunting life. THEN to add to that, we get Alex and Claire? Two rebellious teenage girls? And Jody raises them and they’re both amazing young women! (Claire is still a rebel but whatever). THEN you add Sam and Dean to that mix and how Jody is the mother they deserve and I just fucking love Jody, okay? If I could be like her in any small part, I would be so deliriously happy.
8. Which character would you most like to see brought back from the dead?
Bobby, Ellen, Jo, and Charlie. Those are my four dead characters that NEED to come back. Like, ASAP
9. Which character would you most like to punch?
Azazel (but he was an amazing character, so maybe not?) Adam was a whiny little douche. I could punch him.
10. Who is your absolute favorite character?
Absolute favorite? How about no? I can’t choose! Why would you do this to me? Sam or Dean for sure. I mean, you can’t have one without the other so... it counts, right?
11. Which “Big Bad” do you think was the worst?
Azazel. But not because he was the strongest or most evil or anything (I mean, you can’t get much stronger than God’s Sister, or more evil than Lucifer. Plus, Azazel was helping Lucifer, so I guess Lucifer would be the biggest bad) Anyway. Azazel was the biggest bad in my mind because the boys didn’t know how to deal with him. They were still learning. They hadn’t dealt with a “Big Bad” yet. In the future seasons, they’re kinda like “Another one? I’ll go get the lore books” but for Azazel they were like “Um, what? We don’t know other hunters! We don’t have an angel and a demon and a bunker full of lore! What do we do??”
12. Which character are you most like?
I think I’m more like Jo. I have this fire to prove myself. To prove that I can do things on my own. That I don’t need anyone’s permission. But I’m still fiercely loyal to my family.
13. What death hit you the hardest?
Ellen and Jo. (They died at the same time. It counts as one) I just loved them. So. Freaking. Much.
14. What season finale hit you the hardest?
Season 3, 4, 5
15. What are your ten all-time favorite episodes?
This question is like cruel and unusual torture. Seriously, I had to narrow down 264 episodes to about 30. Then down to 10. T.O.R.T.U.R.E. Anyway, they’re in chronological order since there was no way I was gonna rank them.
Bloody Mary
Asylum
No Exit
All Hell Breaks Loose (Part 1)
Family Remains
Abandon All Hope...
Swan Song
The French Mistake
The Born Again Identity
Red Meat
16. What’s been your favorite season?
Season 4. Hands down. No questions asked. As a demonstration: My friend kept trying to insist that season 5 was the best and I asked him why. Then he listed a few of the episodes that he liked and almost every single episode was in season 4. So then he said, “Hmm. I guess I like season 4 best, then.”
17. Who is your favorite angel?
Gabriel. I like Cas, but I like human!Cas better than angel!Cas, so I guess I need to go with Gabe. Also, he’s totally coming back. He’s not dead. Psh.
18. Who’s your favorite demon?
Ruby 2.0 I love how Gen portrayed her
19. Who’s your favorite evil character?
Azazel was so well written. I hate him, but my writer’s brain is like “THAT IS HOW YOU WRITE A VILLAIN. THAT RIGHT THERE IS GOALS!!!” so I have to say him.
20. Do you have any Supernatural ships?
Sam and Eileen. LOVED THEM!!! Hated that she died. I mean, she totally didn’t die and denial is a great way to live life.
21. Who’s your favorite supporting actor?
Jody. See my answer for question 7 if you need an explanation.
22. What’s your favorite quote from the show?
“We’re all a little weird, we’re all a little wacky, some more than others, but if it works, it works.” ~Dean 9x12
23. If you could cast one famous actor in an episode of SPN, who would you chose?
Katie McGrath. I love her so much.
24. If you could write your own episode, what kind of creature would you like to see included?
A dragon. Like, a real dragon. With scales and wings and fire breathing and stuff. Not that weird dragon episode with the dragon men. I was so disappointed in that one. I would do a dragon episode, but I would do it right.
25. Who’s your favorite girl that Dean’s hooked up with?
The Amazon chick. Mostly because we got this scene:
26. Who’s your favorite girl that Sam’s hooked up with?
Madison. That episode was heartbreaking.
27. What are some of your favorite convention moments?
youtube
28. If you were going to guest star (or be a recurring guest star) on SPN, how would you want your character described?
Kinda like a female version of Garth? Weird, kinda klutzy, but still a good hunter. Compassionate, but unrelenting.
29. What do you hope to see in the next season?
Saving people. Hunting things. The family business. (Totally stealing your answer, Athina) I just want a good season. I want a good plot and I want it to get back to the basics.
30.-40. If you had to choose…
Bobby or John? Bobby
Bela or Ruby? Ruby
Jess or Madison? Jess
Jo or Lisa? Jo
Charlie or Kevin? Charlie (both? can I do that?)
Balthazar or Ash? Ash
Cas or Crowley? Cas
Ben or Claire? Claire
Jody or Donna? Jody
Sam or Dean? I refuse to answer this one
