I saw this question posed on tiktok, but I think Tumblr would really enjoy it too.
If a fae creature offered to give one million dollars for a bone FROM YOUR BODY chosen at random, how many bones would you allow them to take?
Light clarifications; The fae is not the one choosing the bones. The bone is taken at random. Each bone, no matter the size or importance, is worth a full million dollars. You must also declare the exact number first, you can't go bone-by-bone. You either say 2 or you say 10, you can't work your way up to a higher number. The bones are removed instantaneously, and the money is given immediately as well. You will not get in government trouble for acquiring the money.
Tell me in the tags/replies how many bones you'd let the fae take. And as always, reblog for bigger sample size.

What Every Cloud Equipment Business Should Know About Importer of Record (IOR)
Introduction
Cloud technology continues to develop at an incredible pace. As a result, businesses relying on it are more and more dependent on the importation of specialized equipment. Companies are increasingly relying on cloud solutions and must therefore navigate the complex web regulations that govern the importation of cloud products.
This demystifies the  Importer of Record services and sheds some light on its importance in guaranteeing both compliance and efficiency. Also, it will analyze the various industries that benefit from these IOR services, giving a complete overview for businesses that want to optimize their cloud technologies imports.
Cloud Technology: A Guide to Importing Cloud Technology
Importing cloud-based technology equipment involves more than simply moving goods. This requires a profound knowledge of the laws, taxes, and regulations that govern international commerce. The regulations differ greatly between countries. It is, therefore, essential that you are familiar with both the local and international requirements for each import.
Harmonized Tariff System (HTS) and Value Added Tax
Importing cloud equipment can be challenging when dealing with the Harmonized Tariff System. This global system classifies equipment according to specific tariff codes determining applicable duties and taxes. Wrong classifications can cause unexpected delays, higher costs, and compliance issues, including penalties. To avoid these pitfalls, it is important to navigate this system accurately.
Generalized System of Preferences
The Generalized System of Preferences offers a way of reducing tariffs on certain products imported from developing nations. For you to fully benefit, you must understand how the GSP works. A skilled Importer of Record can help you maximize your savings by ensuring that all your imports are eligible for tariff reductions.
State and Local Legislation
National laws are only the beginning. State and local laws add another layer to the complexity. The European Union, for example, requires CE markings (European Conformity - Conformity to European Standards) on all imported equipment. These markings confirm that the product meets the EU standards for safety, health, and the environment. Other countries might have additional certification requirements. It is therefore crucial to hire an IOR that understands the local nuances. An IOR can help avoid risks by ensuring that these regulations are followed.
Accurate Documentation
Documentation is key to a successful importation. To avoid penalties and delays, documents such as certificates of origin and commercial invoices must be prepared accurately. These documents can be efficiently managed by an IOR who is familiar with both local and global laws. It reduces the chance of mistakes or delays in shipping. Documentation management ensures your equipment will meet all regulatory requirements, and arrive on time.
Cost Efficient
IORs can substantially lessen prices by leveraging their information in tariffs and the Generalized System of Preferences (GSPs). This specialized know-how allows businesses to keep away from unnecessary charges, making budgeting extra predictable and precise. With an understanding of the intricacies of import duties and preferential change agreements, IORs make sure corporations can manipulate their charges effectively, main to sizable economic, and financial savings.
Enabling smooth IOR within various industries of the nation
IOR service benefits many industries. Each industry has different needs and challenges.
In today's highly technological society, it is vital to have seamless machinery imports across all industries. This will help maintain operations while encouraging growth. Cloud-based IT services are dependent on data centers in the IT industry. Importers of cloud-based services must comply with strict environmental and safety prototypes to ensure the availability of these services.
The record service importer (IOR) ensures that imported items comply with the regulatory requirements. The record service (IOR) importer ensures that all imported items comply with regulatory requirements.
Compliance with the law is crucial since non-compliance could lead to legal complications and delays. They may hinder innovation and growth in an industry that is constantly evolving.IOR is important for the IT sector, as well as in aviation, medical, and automotive. IORs have a great deal to offer the automotive industry. IORs play a vital role in the automotive industry as it relies increasingly on complex components. It is important to ensure that imported components meet all the necessary safety and environmental standards for seamless system integration.
Conclusion
Any business that imports cloud-based technologies must understand the role of the importer of record. It can be crucial to guide the complexities of international commerce, such as adhering to local and international regulations and managing detailed paperwork. 
The IOR can help to overcome these challenges by ensuring all imports comply with the legal and regulatory requirements.
The expertise of IORs can avoid delays and reduce costs by strategically using tariffs and a Generalized System of Preferences. It's not only about compliance when choosing the right IOR. It's also about optimizing import processes to support the growth and efficiency of your business in an increasingly digital world.

Sick of posts that say stuff like "all mobility aid users should weaponize their mobility aids"
hey man, I can't do that! I need to bring my mobility aids into places that would deny me entrance for things like spikes and barbed wire! not every cripplepunk is a white skinny cane user, and having something deemed as a 'weapon' on some of us can be genuinely life threatening, even if it's a mobility aid! I don't want to have my rollator taken away from me and have to be searched bc I put some spikes on a seat cover or something!!! let cripplepunks express their punkness however is safe and comfortable for them, don't expect us all to be able to do the same things you can, because we all cant

Thinking about Robin and Sunday's halos.
About how Robin's halo isn't a closed circle, but more like a branch forming a circular shape, where the start and stem don't touch. It's also uneven in shape and splits into three flowers, like it's allowed to grow freely, unobstructed. Something about Robin having left Penacony and having escaped the confines of her cage, being able to flourish. About her being able to let people in, and connect to them.
Tumblr media
Meanwhile Sunday stayed behind to be the head of the Oak family and conform to the strict role that's expected of him, and his halo is a perfectly symmetrical shape that's practically fully closed off. It's sharp, almost more like a crown of thorns than a halo. And it almost doesn't have any openings to let anything, or anyone, in easily. It actively discourages getting close to it.
Tumblr media
And then if you want to get sappy about, which I will - Sunday doesn't let anyone in, with that almost completely sealed, thorny halo of his... But there's an opening in Robin's halo, and so it can fit around Sunday's. Something about him always being able to find solace in her, because there's room for him in her (halo) heart always, by design.
Anyway I'm not normal about them.

Hey, Google Docs? I'm off by one letter. I'm off by one doubled letter. I get it, you're AI-fried right now, but you have to be able to recognize when a single letter, from a doubled letter, is missing from a word, right? You have to know the word 'millennium,' right?

In my Zeus bag today so I'm just gonna put it out there that exactly none of the great Ancient Greek warrior-heroes stayed loyal and faithful and completely monogamous and yet none of them have their greatness questioned nor do we question why they had the cultural prominence that they did and still do.
Jason, the brilliant leader of the Argo, got cold feet when it came to Medea - already put off by some of her magic and then exiled from his birthland because of her political ploys, he took Creusa to bed and fully intended on marrying her despite not properly dissolving things with Medea.
Theseus was a fierce warrior and an incredibly talented king but he had a horrible temper and was almost fatally weak to women. This is the man who got imprisoned in the Underworld for trying to get a friend laid, the man who started the whole Attic War because he couldn't keep his legs closed.
And we cannot at all forget Heracles for whom a not inconsiderable amount of his joy in life was loving people then losing the people around him that he loved. Wives, children, serving boys, mentors, Heracles had a list of lovers - male and female - long enough to rival some gods and even after completing his labours and coming down to the end of his life, he did not have one wife but three.
And y'know what, just because he's a cultural darling, I'll put Achilles up here too because that man was a Theseus type where he was fantastic at the thing he was born to do (that is, fight whereas Theseus' was to rule) but that was not enough to eclipse his horrid temper and his weakness to young pretty things. This is the man that killed two of Apollo's sons because they wouldn't let him hit - Tenes because he refused to let Achilles have his sister and Troilus who refused Achilles so vehemently that he ran into Apollo's temple to avoid him and still couldn't escape.
All four of these men are still celebrated as great heroes and men. All four of these men are given the dignity of nuance, of having their flaws treated as just that, flaws which enrich their character and can be used to discuss the wider cultural point of what truly makes a hero heroic. All four of these men still have their legacies respected.
Why can that same mindset not be applied to Zeus? Zeus, who was a warrior-king raised in seclusion apart from his family. Zeus who must have learned to embrace the violence of thunder for every time he cried as a babe, the Corybantes would bang their shields to hide the sound. Zeus learned to be great because being good would not see the universe's affairs in its order.
The wonderful thing about sympathy is that we never run out of it. There's no rule stopping us from being sympathetic to multiple plights at once, there's no law that necessitate things always exist on the good-evil binary. Yes, Zeus sentenced Prometheus to sufferation in Tartarus for what (to us) seems like a cruel reason. Prometheus only wanted to help humans! But when you think about Prometheus' actions from a king's perspective, the narrative is completely different: Prometheus stole divine knowledge and gifted it to humans after Zeus explicitly told him not to. And this was after Prometheus cheated all the gods out of a huge portion of wealth by having humans keep the best part of a sacrifice's meat while the gods must delight themselves with bones, fat and skin. Yes, Zeus gave Persephone away to Hades without consulting Demeter but what king consults a woman who is not his wife about the arrangement of his daughter's marriage to another king? Yes, Zeus breaks the marriage vows he set with Hera despite his love of her but what is the Master of Fate if not its staunchest slave?
The nuance is there. Even in his most bizarre actions, the nuance and logic and reason is there. The Ancient Greeks weren't a daft people, they worshipped Zeus as their primary god for a reason and they did not associate him with half the vices modern audiences take issue with. Zeus was a father, a visitor, a protector, a fair judge of character, a guide for the lost, the arbiter of revenge for those that had been wronged, a pillar of strength for those who needed it and a shield to protect those who made their home among the biting snakes. His children were reflections of him, extensions of his will who acted both as his mercy and as his retribution, his brothers and sisters deferred to him because he was wise as well as powerful. Zeus didn't become king by accident and it is a damn shame he does not get more respect.
#ginger rambles#ginger chats about greek myths#greek mythology#It's Zeus Apologist day actually#For the record Jason is my personal favourite of these guys#The argonauts are extremely underrated for literally no reason#And Jason's wit and sheer ability to adapt along with his piousness are traits that are so far away from what usually gets highlighted#with the typical Greek warrior-hero that I've just never stopped being captivated by him#Conversely I still do not understand what people see in Achilles#I respect him and his legacy I respect the importance of his tale and his cultural importance I promise I do#However I personally can't stand the guy LMAO#How do you get warned twice TWICE both by your mother and by Athena herself that going after Apollo's children is a bad idea#And still have the audacity to be mad and surprised when Apollo is gunning for Specifically You during the war you're bringing to His City#That You Specifically and Exclusively had a choice in avoiding#ACHILLES COULD'VE JUST SAID NO#I know that's not the point however so many other members of the Greek camp were simply casualties of Fate in every conceivable way man#Achilles looked at every terrible choice he could possibly make said “Well I'm gonna die anyway 🤷🏽” and proceeded to make the choice#so hard that he angered god#That's y'all's man right there#I left out Perseus because truthfully I don't actually know much about him#I haven't studied him even a fraction as much as I've studied some of the other big culture heroes and none of this is cited so i don't wan#to talk about stuff I don't know 100%#Anyway justice for Zeus fr#Gimme something give me literally anything other than the nonsense we usually get for him#This goes for Hera too btw#Both the king and queen of the skies are done TERRIBLY by wider greek myth audiences and it's genuinely disheartening to see#If y'all could make excuses for Achilles to forgive his flaws y'all can do it for them#They have a lot more to sympathise with I'll tell you that#(that is a completely biased statement; you are completely free and encouraged to enjoy whichever figures spark joy)#zeus

old mp3 player propaganda for you:
predates planned obsolescence that pushes you to upgrade to the exact same product every year
saves you phone battery by being a dedicated seperate device
no streaming reception issues no buffering
easily portable
full control of order or shuffle
NO ADS
actually pocket sized yes even for annoyingly small designed pockets on women's trousers
conscious music curation, even if you are discovering new music elsewhere you have to decide if you like it enough to keep it in regular listening
more tactile than touch screen smart devices so you can use the controls without looking
actual radio inbuilt no subscription needed
audio jack for headphones or speaker means no faffing around with adaptors or bluetooth charging or connecting to the wrong device or losing connection
no notifications
surprisingly durable
many mp3 players are still multimedia devices with voice record and text or video viewing functions
yes you still might use your phone for the internet or games but also consider no external access to the device without physically plugging it into a computer as a security function
small device kind of cute kind of fun to look at and hold in ur hands like a small creature kind of fun to decorate and accessorise with
my one specifically i was able to download the software from the brand's website because they still have the software and manuals available for discontinued tech and it works no problem, even the battery life still seems fine which i can not say for ANY of the phones i got in the last decade

Well Drawfee is officially no longer safe media for me :(
Karina liked multiple tweets conflating a PSA for antisemitism with Israeli propaganda and claiming that Israel planned its assault to coincide with the superbowl…
Julia liked posts claiming that the war isn’t a war. Nobody has liked anything about antisemitism or even acknowledging Jews are in danger right now.
TBH I’m devastated.
I have Drawfee art all over my home. I was actually gonna become a patron this year. I’d literally been saving to make it feasible. This is crushing. I feel sick.
#leftist antisemitism#antisemitism#drawfee#heartbroken#debated putting this in the Drawfee tag or not#but ultimately I think it’s important#I don’t wanna start fandom drama or Discourse TM#I just want there to be a record of how their silence on antisemitism#and liking of conspiratorial tweets#is affecting a very fragile community#and Nathan being Jewish doesn’t change this for me#his Jewishness does not shield me from his coworkers antisemitism#even though I wanna believe that antisemitism is unintentional#and I’m so happy for Nathan if he feels supported by his friends and coworkers#he obviously knows them better than I ever will#and I’m not calling in Jews to take sides over this or anything#I’m happy that Nathan doesn’t seem to be affected by this#it must mean he has a wonderful support system and that his friends and coworkers are better#at showing their support irl than they are online#and that is important and valid#but it doesn’t change how it affects Jews like me who only experience them through a screen#and do not have a support system#they don’t owe me anything#I don’t expect anything from any of them#but I also cannot deny that I am harmed#by the fact that they didn’t acknowledge the conflict until it affected people who aren’t Jewish#and have still not acknowledged that it affects people who are Jewish#and I especially cannot handle Karina’s clear support for the idea that a Super Bowl PSA for antisemitism prevention#is somehow a sinister Israeli plot and not evidence of the terrible time that Jews like me are having rn#I feel like I lost a friend tbh
