Reddit has a lot of nerve putting this cringe bullshit in front of you for using a VPN when you can literally just replace the “www.reddit.com” with “libreddit.eu.org” and see everything you need in a simpler, cleaner, mobile friendly, ad-free environment.

And bonus: you can use the LibRedirect browser extension to do it automatically for you, meaning you’ll never have to see the pop-up (or the Reddit main site) ever again.

So libreddit become totally unusable today due to reddit API rate-limit à la twitter. Invidous (a youtube frontend) got a cease-and-desist letter a few days ago… there's a near future where google will completely stop being responsible for 80 % of mozilla's annual revenue so we will have to rely on forks of firefox like librewolf, mullvad and so on.. Just love late stage capitalism applied to the web.

(don't touch my rss, corporate greed)

another browser option is i2p. though it is a bit more complicated to set up, and visiting clearnet sites is not oficially supported, it is faster than tor and also good if you want to torrent.

if you are on android, you can download orbot to route all internet traffic ovor tor, or riseup vpn, which is free and probably good enough.

i didnt see invideous in the list of alternate front ends. its for youtube. wikiless for wikipedia, libreddit for reddit, though for reddit just use it over tor, they even have an onion.

signal i know has ways around censorship, though i dont recall what it is.

Ummm byee

Guten Morgen #Fediverse. Heute stehen einige Wolken am Himmel und es hat die Nacht geregnet. So ein Nachtregen ist schön.

Bei der Gelegenheit: Mir ist aufgefallen, dass wir derzeit von YouTube Links nur so überschwemmt werden. Das höhlt den Datenschutz aus und macht uns wieder nur zur Wahre kommerzgetriebener Unternehmen. Dabei gibt es Alternativen, die uns vor den Datendieben schützen:

Here’s the official Reddit mobile website vs the open-source, privacy-minded, 3rd-party front-end known as Libreddit.

The official site is literally unusable these days. If Reddit ever follows Twitter with its API policy, I’d literally have to stop using the site.

Since TD fandom is just a coven of queer ex-discoursettes at this point I feel it necessary to show you all some epic bits of queer history from TD in relation to Cartoon Network where it aired (despite being made by Fresh TV which doesn’t have a big enough repertoire to compare representation from):

•Technically since Owen is attracted to Justin and Izzy even though it’s treated as a joke, he could be considered the first bisexual character to appear on a show on the Cartoon Network, excluding Daniel Stopframe from Moral Orel in 2005 who was actually only featured on the Adult Swim block.

•Svetlana’s status as a transgender woman has been debated as not all alters in a system whose gender does not align with the body’s biological sex are technically trans if they don’t identify as such due to reasons such as always identifying with the same gender in their headspace— however, since Svetlana has the same body in the headspace as Mike who is either a cis man or just had like scarless top surgery at 16 (doubtful even though I personally believe in trans Mike supremacy), Svetlana could technically count as one of the first trans girl characters on Cartoon Network (next to Alice from Superjail and Anita from The Oblongs, who were also only on adult swim; she would be the second overall canon trans character to appear on the children’s programming network next to the Dad from Cow and Chicken, and the first trans woman as Dad is a trans man).

•While less concrete, the visual of Shawn in what looks incredibly like a binder could also be hinting at him being a trans man, which would make him the second trans man on the network

•Jo’s voice actor Laurie Elliott has said she believes Jo is a lesbian. This is debatable since she never showed attraction to women in the show, also some people are uncomfortable with it considering that she fits some maligned stereotypes (ex: “only masculine female character is a lesbian” trope, the mean lesbian trope); however, this would make Jo TD’s first lesbian by some standards and perhaps the fourth/fifth (excluding the many minor lesbians from Cow and Chicken) lesbian on the network by others, and the second or third on the children’s only block on CN (only possibly beat by Velma Dinkley from the Scooby Doo franchise [though her sexuality was confirmed later and only in a few pieces of Scooby Doo media] and Hotdog Water/Marcie Fleach on Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated who was also kind of iffy). (Edit 10/6/23: Jo was also stated to be “butchy” in her All Stars character bio)

•Tom was allegedly confirmed gay by Tom McGillis, I can’t find sources bc doing Total Drama research is a literal nightmare especially now that all the shit has been taken down and only archived on the wiki or in the sketchiest places imaginable, but, yeah that makes sense. He was purportedly based on a gay fashion designer. This would make Tom the first confirmed gay character on the show, even though he doesn’t show attraction to men (though does have characteristics that lead into gay stereotypes). I think Jacques was also headcanoned as gay by a writer but this is even more tenuous.

•Noah kissing Cody’s ear in The Big Sleep could be considered the first gay kiss on Cartoon Network, even though it’s one sided and unconscious and also a joke.

•Noah is considered by many to be gay coded, or at least be coded in a way that alludes to him being some variety of queer. User u/Rosepink29 on libreddit has a pretty good essay on this: https://libredd.it/r/Totaldrama/comments/ptkjdh/an_essay_on_noahs_sexuality/ . It’s thought the introduction of Emma as a love interest in Ridonculous Race was meant to disperse these rumors but that’s not confirmed and there’s really no proof, it’s just circumstantial. (Edit 10/6/23: Noah could also still fall under the bisexual umbrella, especially considering he also hugs Bridgette in a way that could be considered romantic in “Anything Yukon Do I Can Do Better”)

•Lightning has openly said he “doesn’t judge” gay men after Jo, who he thought was a man, said “I’ve never even kissed a guy”. In his biography, Lightning also broke up with his friend, Thunderbolt, because people yelled lyrics from the band Queen at them (Queen’s lead singer was attracted to men). He also has various moments that might imply him to be attracted to men, such as biting his lip when Sam brings up Scott kissing a gentleman. This could count as gay coding, though some people also argue Lightning is on the aromantic and/or asexual spectrum because he expresses he’s never kissed a Super Bowl ring over a person in A Mine Is a Terrible Thing To Waste, and because he’s never had a love interest or fallen into the womanizing stereotype most jocks do on television.

•Many of the contestants in Hawaiian Honeyruin have to do the Hawaiian wedding challenge with someone of the same gender— though the idea of this being romantic is mostly based on individual reactions rather than the premise of the challenge itself considering many participants in this challenge are family, such as the Sisters, Adversity Twins, Father and Son, and Mother and Daughter.

•B’s revealed to have a dead name they no longer use, which could imply them to be trans. They also have many autistic-coded mannerisms like stimming and selective mutism, which isn’t inherently queer but still cool

•In I Love You, I Love You Knots, when Chris tells Dave he has to kiss a person next to him, he looks at Shawn instead of Sky first. This is mostly a gag but still interesting. It’s also worth noting Shawn didn’t want to not kiss Dave because he was a guy, but rather because he was afraid Dave was a zombie.

•When Alejandro helps Tyler and Ezekiel up in part one of Walk Like an Egyptian, they both appear flustered and Tyler says, “I like girls” unprompted, which may imply they are both attracted to him. In Tyler’s case this would put him on the bisexual spectrum considering his relationship with Lindsay, in Ezekiel’s case it’s unclear if he’s ever been attracted to women but it’s likely he is considering he seems to be attracted to Bridgette in one of his bios, which would also put him on that spectrum.

•Courtney and Gwen’s interactions in All Stars may come across as romantic to some viewers, namely their team up in You Regatta be Kidding Me and in Suckers Punched when Courtney says “I never missed Duncan, but I really missed you”

•Duncan calls Chef a “Transgender troll” in The Princess Pride. It’s as an insult so this makes Duncan the first transphobic character on TD? I guess?

•Several characters such as DJ, Kitty, Mal, Brick (unless you see that one interaction with Dawn as romantic), Lightning, Staci, Beardo, Leonard, Sugar, Amy, Scarlett, Max, and more never display romantic attraction in the show. It’s highly unlikely all of them are aromantic but this lends credibility to the idea that some of them could be.

Edits post-TDIR release (spoilers):

•Raj and Bowie have both been confirmed to be gay men within the show

•Wayne uses the term bi (bisexual) in the show, making him one of the first cartoon characters to do so. He’s also an ally

Hi, I'm the anon who asked about Paul and ADHD. I know I've seen some asks on Tumblr about it, but of course I can't find them now. I'll keep looking. However, I've found a libreddit page (don't know what that is) where people speculate he might be on the spectrum (can't link it here), and also on the blog Hey Dullblog, under the "Get Back Halftime Report" comments, if you search ADHD there are several people who speculate he might have it.

I couldn't find the libreddit page, but I found the comments on Hey Dullblog (x) - here are some of them:

[Paul] obviously has ADHD or something like that because he can’t stop fidgeting for a minute, and you can tell by the way he speaks that his thoughts are jumping all over the place as well. Again, he’s like that in interviews and it does make him difficult to watch. I have no doubt that he’s difficult to be around, and I’m not at all surprised that he got on everyone’s nerves – people like that always do, and through no fault of their own. I can well imagine the stuff that was edited out of HDYS. (Elizabeth, November 29, 2021 at 9:19 am)

My spouse thought his behavior seemed stimulant fueled, namely cocaine. I always thought this was his heavy alcohol/pot period and some of his circular reasoning and refusal to drop various subjects do say to me that something more was going on, either substance use or mental health issues/neurodivergence (could be a lot of things from OCD to ADHd to anxiety) But I was surprised by how restless and kinetic he is. As someone with ADHD, I see some of that in both Paul and John, whereas George and Ringo seem neurotypical. I think it’s significant that their early period was stimulant heavy, too. (Fox, November 29, 2021 at 9:53 am)

...stimulants could’ve calmed Paul’s ADHD — I have a friend who has it, and she says, “How can you tell if someone has ADHD? When they ask, ‘What’s the big deal about cocaine?'” (Because stimulants, like Ritalin for example, actually help ADHD’ers focus and get calm.) (Michael Gerber, November 29, 2021 at 9:57 pm)

To be honest, Pauls behaviour overall doesn't jump out as being symptomatic of ADHD to me - I feel like it could be better explained by other diagnosis’s or sources, such as anxiety, drug usage, autism, and even just the general characteristics of his personality. 

Like, “Elizabeth” points out that in interviews his speech and behaviour will seem “fidgety”* and “all over the place” - and potentially, yes, ADHD is an explanation for this, im not dismissing it entirely. But also, to me it feels as though it has more to do with Pauls somewhat “performative” personality, if that makes sense? Or its a nervous/awkward thing; or a difficulty in being emotively articulate; or the influence of drugs and alcohol. Point is, I think that there are other potential explanations to consider there.

(*I picked up on Paul having shaky-leg-syndrome in Get Back btw, and like solidarity sister lol - but just throwing it out there because it often is related to anxiety).

Again though, im just pretty indifferent to most of this debate because I know im out of my depth here in discussing things like autism or ADHD. To me, he didn't seem that symptomatic of ADD/ADHD, because I dont recall him doing things like interrupting people, having a lot of difficulty concentrating, being disorganised etc. (okay ill admit I still haven't watched GB sober so I dont remember it that well - but I vaguely remember it) - and I understand that ADD/ADHD will present itself differently in each individual, but im just saying, its not the impression I got from him. But as always, if you think theres a strong case for a diagnosis there, then im sending you my girl power, and go for it. :)
