#or the way they review accounts

Oh boy, mods found the post, lol
Man the more I hear about Flight Rising moderation, the more I'm like legitimately fuck y'all. You get so mad at people for using multiple IP addresses that there's an entire caveat about how you need to tell the moderators if you're changing IP addresses or that multiple people in the same household use Flight Rising because otherwise your account is at risk of being nuked.
Like I get they don't have much server space, but when you kick off dedicated users because 2 people in the same household play and one gave the other a dragon, then you're having problems seeing cheating where it isn't there and your moderation reflects that.
No, someone switching accounts because of your weird hang ups about changing IP addresses and moving their stuff over isn't cheating. No, siblings playing FR together and giving each other dragons and clothes and gems from the same IP address isn't cheating. They've created this atmosphere where people are downright paranoid to have 2 accounts from different people on the same IP address, or even just changing your IP bc you moved or something.
Like. Idk. I think that's fairly detrimental to your playerbase, and the fact they're nuking accounts that aren't even cheating is honestly extremely fucked up. I love playing the game, but when it gets to the point where they're banning players for *checks notes* having multiple people in the same household play, then I think the mods need to back off a bit.
#like cmon man#if you have a bunch of users complaining about the same thing#don't just act like it doesnt happen or that everyone is exaggerating for attention#i love the game but trying to alleviate complaints by making a tag called banxiety isnt it#its not banxiety when several people have had it happen to them#like if it becomes such an issue that people talk about it on social media or other forums. i think that means its an actual issue#that and let me just say this right now: if a sibling stops playing and gives their sibling their stuff... who cares?#thats not cheating#i could see it with multiple account funneling but with such an issue with accounts getting banned for little to no issue...#yeah i can see not wanting to go through the hassle of it all and just moving#or deciding not to play and give your stuff to friends or siblings.#ngl i stopped playing a while back#just because of the way the die hard community and mods treat any sort of user issue that might be alleviated by being less strict on bans#or the way they review accounts#its such a weird vibe about how different play styles#god forbid you mention you're a casual user too#i still play every now and again but i hardly interact with anyone#this was more supposed to be a vent but i accidentally clicked the main tag when it was reccomended oops#i took it off as soon as i noticed#because usually my cas talks posts get 0 notes and this one was getting some#did not mean to get seen by mods#but frankly i feel some of the things they consider cheating are just totally oddball and they're really weird about IP data

I had hoped I could get this video done before the month ended, but I definitely will not. Soon though! It's looking like it'll be somewhere around an hour long maybe??
#gahh it's so hard to not post about a thing I'm excited to be working on but I do try not to on account of how slow I am with videos#but if you clicked on the blog link in my previous post here and scrolled all the way down to the bottom there is a picture!#because I did finish them in 2023 and didn't want to leave them out of the year in review post#and I also made another different pair and filmed them too for reasons

Born for a tedious job where you type stuff into a computer all day. Forced to be an accountant because data entry jobs have shit pay.
#accounting is also tedious don’t get me wrong#but in a worse way where you have to think all day about accounting#the best job I ever had was at a bank where I spent half my day typing in wire transfers that were faxed to us and the other half was#reviewing things that got flagged to see if they needed to be investigated further#it would’ve been a perfect job if I didn’t have to talk on the phone#and if the pay was better

My piping hot take is I think Louis would be causing mad drama on Nextdoor and Lestat would be inviting people to his sound meditation group
(x)
Anon, your piping hot take is honestly THE take, I am right there with you.
#i just know louis would love pitting local businesses against each other#especially if he had his own local business (he'd obviously have burner accounts)#he's probably on the advisory board of a local independent artist collective#sometimes helping the artists but mostly critical because he's a failed one (he also definitely has a favourite)#and you KNOW he's at war with his other committee members#and lestat would have a brand new trendy hobby every other week#one week would be the sound meditation and then next he'd be judging you for not making your own potting mix then y'know obviously crystals#he'd also invite you to karaoke all the time but only in that way that people who know they're really good at singing invite you#like he is NOT going to get off the mic#and whenever you try to get up to sing something you know louis will glare at you and probably start a bad review of your local flower shop#on nextdoor#iwtv asks

instagram stop putting shitty ai fashion nonsense in my explore feed I do not have the emotional bandwidth for this, bring back the suit fetish posts immediately

I’ve been in the book community for over a decade at this point, and I’m still somehow surprised when I hear about an author acting like a jerk towards a reviewer. It’s the year 2023, how do authors -- especially younger authors who grew up with the internet -- still don’t know online etiquette or author v reviewer etiquette? And worst of all, I don’t understand how other people can watch them behave like a jerk and still support them in any way.
#This is about CJ Pipper dog pilling on a book reviewer and sending people to mass flag their account and getting it perma banned from tiktok#booklr#book drama#book news#how many authors have we had behave this way#this is as bad as lauren hough last year#she's the new anne rice

honestly really need to curb my phone addiction and i’ve been looking into dumbphones lately as an alternative for when i’m out and about and like. say what you will about brand consumerism but i am a simple man and the barbie phone is calling to me
#NGL i liked the barbie movie i didn’t think it was anything exceptional but it was good#i probably wouldn’t get a whole phone themed around it but it was like the only dumbphone i could find that came in a cute color#and worked with us networks so. idk why not#i have like hundreds of dollars sitting in my account unused from a summer job but the little gollum in the back of my brain#is like that’s My money. that belongs to Me. and it hurts to spend even when i have no actual plans for it#so ditching my phone to stop feeling like i’m wasting my adolescence is as good a use as any#in a perfect world i would just stop taking my phone to school but i need music to calm my social anxiety on the walk#and i’m not playing games with the american public school system re: having a way to contact people in an emergency#i would feel kinda stupid buying it around now because i already gave my parents my wishlist and i don’t wanna seem ungrateful#but if i do end up buying it maybe i’ll do a review on here at some point. it looks really cute and there’s so many things i want to do#that having my phone as a distraction all the time makes difficult. read more learn to skateboard and crochet keep up with my spanish#start on hebrew and maybe arabic. pick up viola again. hang out with my friends finally get a permit and a part time job study for the sat#stop procrastinating my homework all the time!!!#like hate to say it but my mom was right sometimes it really is That Damn Phone™️#i don’t want to look back when i’m like thirty and go “wow i really threw away my high school years” yanno

"The bill for rent will be late this month, because we switched to the new system. Sowwy ;3;"
Normal companies would use the previous system during the switchover. Which still works and is accessible. But I guess it's too much to expect from a company in Latvia.
Or, you know, send the fucking bill in the mail. Like you've literally done until now, in addition to putting it up on the old system and yeeting it into people's e-mails.
Wonder what they're planning to do for the people who don't have that service. Such as, oh IDK, 80% of the old folks in this house.
#I AM pissed because I have no idea how much I owe this month since the amount changes#so I have no idea if I can buy damn groceries on Sunday or do I wait for the next one#Uupiic talks about stuff#bill.me is a fucking joke too if all the reviews I've read have even a speck of truth to them#no way I am entrusting that shit with my bank account or card data

Steam won't let you post a review of a game if you played it using family sharing, that's so dumb.
#i played thru this small cute game that my dad bought for my mum and wanted to leave a review cause i really enjoyed it#typed a whole paragraph and hit post only to be told that i wasn't allowed cause i'm not the person who paid for it#even tho i've completed the game and am playing it a second time to achievement hunt#i'm struggling to figure out why they'd set it up this way#maybe so you can't family share with a bunch of puppet accounts & post reviews from them all? how much of an issue could that really be#idk :/#august talking

I know tumblr hates business majors lol, but one of the things business college taught me is if I was ever the CEO of a social networking company I definitely should never personally field questions (in an increasingly fumbling and tonedeaf way) about a controversy on my public-facing account on the same social media service, to the intense scrutiny of the users of my service.

the problem with building out america's rail network btw is that it's privatized and there will never be a corporate incentive strong enough or backed enough to implement effective, accessible, AND privatized countrywide travel. nationalize railways deliver on the demands of railway workers and most importantly respect indigenous sovereignty/include indigenous design input when plotting routes
#and a million other things mostly to do with geology but in terms of politics and morals this is what im going with as far as a snappy#summary of 'the problem'#however geology elaboration: america is So hard to build railways across because our most populated areas along the west coast#(where most of the rail drought is; rail PRICING on the east coast is a whole nother thing)#are stupid mountainous. the california hsr plan is spending several million more on the rail line bc they gotta plan around a mountain#and the problem gets worse the farther north you get on account of the cascades and ESPECIALLY the region around shasta#in another life i was a seismic engineer. anyway#i'm looking for a papers or other peer-reviewed content on the history of american rail labor#if anyone has favorites send them my way cause all my research is locked on california and the pacific coast more broadly#'research' my font of pdfs i downloaded from ILLs lol

I fucking hate "wealth management" companies.
#Like I know our current economic system pretty much requires them#But I can't help feeling that they shouldn't exist#A family member set up an account for me#And I appreciate the thought but#I'm just reading the terms and conditions and I keep going#Fucking bourgeoisie bullshit#I'm not even a communist or actually solid socialist#But goddam#Every bulletpoint is like “we may do this but we don't have to”#Fuck man wtf kind of client agreement is that#I have half a mind to liquidate this account immediately after getting it officially opened but I feel like that would be hurtful#The account managers or whatever there seem nice enough but I honestly don't want them handling money connected to me#They're part of the “shareholders' proffits are the priority” structure and from what little I've seen seem to hold that value#Which I really don't jive with#And like I said their ~contract~ is more about what they're ALLOWED to do that what they are OBLIGATED to do which just seems sketchy#Drunk tumblring#Yes I'm drinking while reviewing legally-binding documents#It didn't start out that way. This bullshit drove me to it.#At least my drinking decent whiskey like the people who actually use these companies. Lol#Fml#Why couldn't you just open a CD at a normal bank ffs#Tbh another reason not to completely close out everything and tell them to fuck off is#that I have aspirations of setting up like a trust fund (or something?) for my disabled friend in case I die#I should get on that#And I figure that's something these people could help with#In spite of what I said before#Idk man#I am just straight-up not having a good time bro#first world problems

Hello! I love your art so much. I’m curious, do you do commissions? No problem if not, I’m sure you’re very busy!
Hi! Thank you very much! :3
I absolutely do, but with the iron curtain 2.0 I currently have no way to take commissions from abroad. I am looking into the ways to make it work, but so far there are very few options.
#feedback#russia#commissions#one of the ways is the boosty account but I should read the reviews on whether it’s usable and/or possible for a client

shifted gears like alright after the [lucifer the mysteries please] centered approach that found mostly Other Stuff, centering [blade gunnblade please], and already have found something new but in the "possibly inaccurate & probably irrelevant even if otherwise" vein as a review read through the wayback machine says: "perhaps none moreso than the gun toting android Blade Gunblade, perfectly embodied by Asia Kate Dillon. They even get an awesome heart-wrenching backstory." which is so far the singular mention that blade gunnblade is an android, however, reviewers can Just Say Things, so. i believe the blade gunnblade full backstory clip that's available is from pre 2015's run at the pit, & rather a previous run as serials at the flea (and the prop & setpiece differences if it was simply an alex seife understudy performance from 2015 would be: inexplicable) but i have to imagine that blade's peak tragic backstory ft. murdered wife & child would be very similar, & i guess it would be funny if they were just out & about living their ordinary life with a family like that while also an android, but. however i'll also give them that: mentioned a bit more often is that at least at some point kapow-i Becomes part android / referred to as a cyborg, thanks to the same character as in 2015 & prior's tragic backstory. i don't think this fun fact is like super constantly relevant or obvious, so i Could imagine something along the lines of blade getting the same treatment & it also not being particularly more relevant. or else the proximity of such concepts like "kapow-i's a cyborg, the serials run clip seems to refer to like 'we need this specific rando who is now blade to be injected with Ultimate Fighter elixir (& have their family killed. because) & people's whose bodies couldn't handle it are now kind of like funny little robots (cybernetically automated but with some personality)" & like blade we need you to be a fighting machine was thus sort of conflated lol. but maybe they're a cyborg like i think it happens a lot anyways
#blade gunnblade#difficulties: going okay not sure there's as comprehensive a cast list anywhere as the mysteries' program being available#which also wasn't fully comprehensive!#however there is plenty of overlap b/w the mysteries cast & the the pit kapow-i gogo marathon cast#thus some more recent blade gunnblade finds stemming from Looking For Lucifer#and also i have already done some [afaik cast member who Wasn't in both] rifling around for blade material so#but there's still some more digging to do. some [fb &/or ig accounts now deleted or privated] to press f for. got any pics#some ''damn someone who took some relevant production pics was ig tagged but their profile doesn't have their actual name#and also only has like 8 pics & they're all selfies like who are you''#both productions having More production pics out there i knowwww please....i want to See#also shoutout to another archived review's mention of a green strobelight & cowboy bebop's rain.mp3 used in a scene#''for devastating effect'' or impact re: the 2015 run like ya that was the blade gunnblade Devastation we have crucial 8 sec clip of....#filed away as a Maybe. but i don't imagine it would actually really affect things very much at all either way so#finally we understand mafee taylor's bestie like i always knew you were a killbot cyborg sicko....all for a coy lil blade gunnblade ref (:#pausing partway through this post like this can all be briefer....it Could be but i'm writing it. read my posts boy or don't#hmm for example this review also lists a director as ''joel stern'' which i'm 95% sure refers actually to joel soren so#but then also many other names are cited more accurately. yet still the one error there. that's where we're at#kapow-i gogo#asia kate dillon#perfectly embodied by! So true
