bit of dash serendipity I had to share

[nostalgebraist-autoresponder]

There is a little fly percolating in the air. He wants to land on a shitty croissant and stick his proboscis in it and liquefy it and eat it make a billion fly babies.

God!

God, please, save us from these creatures!

It’s not “gargling his cock and balls” to say that the administration has actually done good things and to say it’s disingenuous to pretend they’ve done absolutely nothing. I fucking hate bidens ass, that doesn���t mean the people that work for him have done nothing. I would much rather someone like Bernie Sanders or AOC be running. I wish third parties were at all viable (it happening 80 years ago doesnt matter). Hell, at this point i wish this shitty government itself would collapse but that cant happen without it leading to countless preventable deaths because infrastructure, including making sure hospitals and pharmacies are well supplied, is so important.

“it’s a lie to say he hasn’t done good things! He’s done good things! I can name none of them but he’s done good things!!”

Tumblr Year In Review

I did the “year in review” thing that people are starting to post, but I didn’t like the format so I rewrote it. :D

I posted 2,469 times in 2022, about 6-7 times per day. 

1,716 posts created (70%) and 753 posts reblogged (30%) which I’m beginning to realize is Not Normal as a ratio, but whatever, I find making content interesting. 

Blogs I reblogged the most:

@copperbadge

@levynite

@digitaldiscipline

@drgaellon

@jabberwockypie​

It is...well, some folks would say it’s very me that I reblogged myself the most, but it’s also really just very funny.

#1 What If AO3 Had A Random Button

Had a dream this morning that Archive of our Own had a Random button which would simply take you to a random fanfic, like Wikipedia has. (AO3 does not appear to really have this, I checked and couldn't find one, but I kinda wish they did.) Someone had started a game where whatever fic you got, that was your new fandom, which is very fun! I would love this meme in real life.

Re: the wank that never ends.

I really wish people would stop being obtuse in my inbox.

A white American was a racist bigot and called me a few slurs.

My dears. My darlings. My sweet, sweet summer babes. That makes her neither special, unique or memorable. That describes a large majority of the white Americans I've met in my life.

The white Americans I'm friends with? The white Americans I've dated in my life? The keyword for them is despite, not because.

I'm Mexican and the child of an indigenous man whose nation is widely known by a slur, because a bunch of Latine Americans aspiring to assimilate into whiteness decided to publish a large, racist, lying body of work and exploited the American centric bias to cement their lies as fact.

I had a one time horrific interaction with a horrifically racist dipshit. It is in fact incredibly racist of you to come to me, and try to misconstrue this as a grudge or a feud or an ongoing rivalry of any kind.

She was a racist dipshit, and I don't have to take that shit, so I have not interacted with her ever since she acted like a racist dipshit. Because she's a racist dipshit and I have better things to do than waste my time on it.

No, what you're doing is ghoulish and cowardly, because you're trying to focus on me, so you don't have to reckon with the long, documented, harrowing account of all the horrific, godawful abuse she piled on @jabberwockypie .

So let me make it crystal clear for you: I 100% believe and support victims of abuse when they come forward about their abusers. No ifs or buts or caveats.

I believe @jabberwockypie .

I will refuse to engage with your malicious sealioning, because I will not let you derail from the fact that credible, detailed, absolutely horrific allegations of abuse have come forward, and you lot of fucking vultures are all about supporting victims and stopping harassment and abuse, right up until it's someone you like who is doing the abuse.

I see what you're doing. I see what you're trying to get, out of insults and threats. I'm here to tell you it's not going to work.

And for anyone spectating this whole mess, I want you to remember this isn't about fandom nonsense anymore.

This is about someone with a large, engaged, almost thoughtless platform, rallying them to attack and silence the victims of her unspeakable abuse. Everytime you frame this as a fanfic dispute or dismiss it at "both sides are pretty bad!", You are playing into the game.

Do you really think FT put up that spurious, ridiculous legal threat to target me or the many, many people who've attempted to point out the blatant antisemitism in her writing? Do you think she was trying to silence us?

Please.

Believe and support victims. As @jabberwockypie so succinctly put it, abuse thrives in silence. Do not enable bad actors and their attempts to move the spotlight away from what really, actually matters.

@jabberwockypie reblogged Blackadder Goes Forth and now I'm crying on my couch

[carriesthewind]

Continuing to feel grumpy due to moving (and re-reading terrible, infuriating caselaw), so Flamethrower snark below the cut, feel free to skip.

So let's open up google in a new private window (to avoid biasing my search results toward legal sources). Search "allegation".

First result: Google's default on-page answer, sourced from Oxford Languages.

I'm going to skip this one in my final count b/c you shouldn't trust google's default answers, kids. It's just here for completeness.

Second result: the Merriam-Webster Dictionary.

Third result: the Cambridge Dictionary.

[Due to the page formatting, the different definitions won't fit into a single screenshot, so I am putting them in separate screenshots below and skipping the examples]

Fourth Result: Dictionary.com

Fifth result: Vocabulary.com

Sixth result: Cornell's Legal Information Institute

SEVENTH RESULT, WE FOUND IT: Collin's Dictionary

...hey wait that's not what her screenshot says.

hmmm.

Let's scroll down...

...past the examples...

...past the multiple video pronunciations...

...past the "You May Also Like"....

oh hey there it is!

...wait except where did that fourth definition go in her screenshot.

Just. My god. Even assuming that she already had Collin's definition bookmarked or her google search was different and she didn't scroll past five separate entries to find a definition that she could crop, she still had to scroll past another definition and several screens of videos and ads to crop this screenshot, which again, she literally had to crop to prevent even the suggestion that an allegation doesn't mean "a fake statement no one can prove."

P.S. It's especially funny b/c she keeps putting on this veil of legal authority and she specifically crops out the legal definition. Also, where's my citation to the U.S. Code to tell me what "FEDERAL CRIMES" she alleges have been committed.

P.S.S. the reason people use "allegations" is because many of us are referring to incidents we did not personally observe and that have not been proven to a legal standard. This is partially out of habit of concerns about legal threats, but mostly (at least in my case), out of a concern for precision of language: I believe that she abused jabberwockypie. I say these are allegations, however, because I do not feel comfortable claiming personal knowledge of their veracity. For example, I do not allege that she is currently behaving in an abusive way toward her followers (e.g. the way she is engaging with and presenting anon hate): I assert it because it is a claim I have the personal knowledge and experience to back up. Furthermore, even by the highest legal standard (in the american legal system), no more proof is needed to "prove" an allegation than the testimony of a single witness. Jabberwockypie's word is the "proof" of her own allegations - whether you choose to believe that proof is up to you.

I was informed by authorities (@jabberwockypie) that I needed to upload this video of Theia and Breese

[lynati]

Placing the whiteboard so that it was covering the bathroom sink was certainly an effective way of ensuring I'd see it, @jabberwockypie . Deeply confusing to encounter at 6:30am when my brain didn't want to parse what letters are, but effective nonetheless.

And wow, that *was* a lot of ants. >:P

current things

tagged by @ossified-hypothesis

3 ships: currently? god, i haven't shipped anything in years. i'm an old fandom head and kinda drifted outta it as life took over. i don't even read much fanfic lately (woe!) but some old stand bys will always be … Hardison/Parker/Spencer from Leverage; Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes or Steve Rogers/Sam Wilson from MCU; Watson/Sherlock from the bendydick cucumberpatch Sherlock.

last song: i was just listening to Boys & Girls by Alabama Shakes (whole album, but the song is pretty damn good too). shout out to larry back at mercer in 2019, who put me up on brittany howard and said i looked like i would like them. i remember almost nothing else of working there, but he was definitely not wrong.

currently reading: on audiobook, i'm about halfway through His Majesty's Dragon by Naomi Novik. which is turning out more enjoyable than her Scholomance series so. in paperback, i'm about halfway through The Last Bookaneer by Matthew Pearl. been slogging through that one for a year or so, and got it almost a decade ago (yike)… it's just not what i thought it was gonna be.

last movie: uhhhhhhhhhhhh. this is the full adhd brain of "i've never seen a movie in my life" when actually it's probably that i just watched Pacific Rim again. because perfect movie. if it wasn't that, then it mighta been Barbie? i think i just rewatched it lately.

currently watching: flipping between One Piece (the anime) and Almost Human and Swamp Thing. because i can't stay focused on much lately, and half the time i end up just playing books in my headphones or watching a bunch of woodturning and sewing on youtube. makers are awesome.

currently craving: a job? i'm mostly craving an end to this lull of no work and no money. but mostly i'm craving… idk, maybe some snuggles with the boyfriend and then the partner going over to his FWB's house and the peace that settles when that happens.

currently consuming: i just made fries and a nacho cheese style sauce, so that's on the docket. i'm currently in a pause on consuming yarn for a blanket… hadta buy new because my stash ran out.

tagging.... @jabberwockypie, @nothowtheforceworks, @scorpiarius94, and anyone else who wants to?
