#the internet sucks

With a new Dragon Age game out I am once again begging people to stop citing "Project Elvhen" when you're trying to figure out what in game elven phrases and words mean. That's just some thing some guy made up. It's not correct, it's not trying to be, it's fanmade.

Good Alternatives:

Bitter Gossamer's Elvhen Cipher (it is literally amazing! I highly recommend this one) Katiebour's Best Guess at Elvhen (very outdated, but still a good resource!) Dragon Age Wiki's Elven Language Page

I think what a lot of tumblr-only people are missing about twitter failing, is that it was always a better website when it came to small businesses, instant world event news, fact checking, having users from all over the world, being a source for disaster relief information or warnings, and anything else to keep people up to date with going ons.

Sure, tumblr has many users from all over, but the website is still largely english biased and not nearly as widespread as twitter. I know a lot of news and knowledge comes in on here too. I've learned a lot and see a lot of donation posts in regards to world events, but its nothing like twitter unless you know who to follow. Not to mention, half the news I got here, was days later and from twitter to begin with.

Seeing that being taken away in favor of hate speech and enabling abusers (with the recent potential of getting rid of the block feature over there) and pushing blue user comments to the top (aka elon's weird fans), drowning out anyone else on popular posts, sucks! It sucks for the world and small businesses. because there's really no alternative to it right now.

The site's running rampant with spam and scammers and its becoming more and more unusable by the day. And some people think it's silly to be upset over it or "you shouldn't have all your eggs in one basket" well there only is one basket! This is literally people's livelihoods people seem to be making fun of anytime a change happens that breaks the site and people post all their socials.

And everyone from every country is talking about different websites they're considering, and its splitting up our connection to the world. And surely he knew who this was hurting with every decision.

I think when getting along with other people, its perfectly natural (and entirely inevitable) that you're going to bump elbows with others and treating confrontation/discomfort with a kneejerk "well we have to beef now and turn this small miscommunication/moment of friction into a Whole Thing" reaction, instead of doing your best to give your fellow people the benefit of the doubt, even if you got off on the wrong foot is really key. and in fact an essential skill for any grown adult. especially when operating within and without other communities or cultures

if yall want to have fun on the internet while feeling like apart of a community you should join neocities and make your own personal website im so srs.

you’ll need to learn html coding but there are loads of free templates you can use! this layout generator is a great place to start, and neocities also has their own starter guide. i promise coding is not as scary as it looks, once you learn the basics it is rewarding & fun!

having a personal website on neocities is like having a little virtual house that you can freely customise how you want then you can go and visit other ppls virtual houses. it’s comfy, slow-paced and very welcoming compared to current social media.

if you don’t want to join, i still recommend checking out peoples websites ^_^ they are interactive works of art! keep in mind most are best viewed on a computer rather than mobile.

here is my website if you’d like to check it out :3

"Fight back against fascism by not buying anything for a day! Cripple capitalism by skipping work and calling it a general strike! Protest the government by not voting!"

Hey so this is probably nothing, just a totally weird coincidence, hardly worth bringing up, but it seems like all of those things all boil down to sitting on your ass at home and not doing anything that would involve actual effort or make you talk to another human being.

I don't want to sound crazy here but what if instead of trying to make inaction sound revolutionary, we tried - and again, this is going to sound insane - what if we tried actually organizing the people in our direct communities by running for school boards, attending and speaking out at city council meetings, and identifying and campaigning for progressive politicians?
