There is something sobering about reading a fic that hasn't been updated in years, and then clicking over to the author's profile to find that it's the last thing they updated....they didn't switch fandoms or anything, they just stopped posting altogether.
#i can't properly put it into words but the internet is a graveyard sometimes#especially back in the 90s/00s when you'd find a website “Under Construction!” but it stayed that way for years#or blogs where people just stopped posting entries#fics where the author abruptly stopped posting updates and stopped replying to comments#email addresses that bounce back#links that lead you to slashcity or angelfire or geocities sites and therefore are broken#i hope it just means OP got distracted by RL but i always wonder!#and there's no way of ever finding out

[ID: an uncoloured drawing for a panel next to the publicized version. They're both from the comic Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #194. In them, Batman is shown from the waist up. He's looking at Jim Gordon, who's off panel, with a penitent expression after being accused of something he secretly did do. He has his palm pressed against his chest and is blocking the bat emblem as his other hand is clasped ontop of it. In the initial drawing, there's a halo floating above his head as well as several tiny hearts mixed in with the lights that surround him. In the publicized panel, the hearts and halo has been removed and two speech bubbles have been added. He's in front of a terra rose background and is starting to say, “Jim, I don't even know what you're...” But Jim cuts him off, saying, “Stop it. I'm tired of this.”
The third photo is a description of the drawing from the artist's (Seth Fisher) website. It reads: This is another page that the DC editors changed: no halos or hearts around Batman, no matter how (disingenuously) contrite he is. In the final edition, the halo and heart in the center bottom frame have been excised.]
#happy sad boy sunday !!!#this counts because he's getting broken up with and because im sad bc they removed the halo and hearts#included the link to the website on the word too :3 in case any of u wanted to see his unpublished work too#deleting a big ol rant that no one cares about but basically:#hate seeing how much creativity and personality gets edited and removed despite it being the artist's job & how you have rememberable#and remarkable art. i get the editors got an important job but at the same time at what point do you allow art and personality to exist#just to make comics more fun to read/look at instead of basing everything on a capitalistic stoic reputation that#youre responsible for creating?? turning batman into a symbol of unwavering compassion and empathy and the reminder theres always stars#even on the darkest night if you remember to look up. him going from being a symbol of hope and humanity to being a character#that cant fucking have a heart or visual compassion out of fear they cant market him more or ruin that fragile reputation.#they make editing decisions based on it as a product instead of it as a character/story or an artform and god does it show.#happy sad boy sunday bc shutting down artistic freedom and expressionism for capitalistic reasonings is making me want to shoot myself 🥰🥰#c: batman: legends of the dark knight | i: 194#crypt's panels#batman#posts from the crypt

#that urge to delete everything and disappear is hitting again.#sometimes it feels like having an online presence is more harmful than it is good.#if im going onto a website or a platform and getting upset more times than im not whats the purpose in using the site.#cant just up and cut everyone and thing out of my life though#that would hurt so many good people#no running. not again.#and yet i cant help but feel responsible for it all. i cant help but get upset about everything thats happened this year.#i cant help but feel like im fundamentally broken. that i cant heal or be better.#i dont know that i deserve to sometimes but i keep trying and trying#i feel like i owe it to others in a similar postion#how would everyone ive known feel if i was just. gone one day?#what if i died tomorrow.#what would happen to the people i care about#my pet cat#do i even really know what it means to care about others anymore?#do i do it right or do i ruin everything i touch.#maybe it would be better if i stopped trying. gave in. just once. im so tired.#just stopped trying. after all ive always been told i was never any good.#screaming into the void. doing all i can not to give into these harmful urges against myself all the time.#i want to be loved and cared for. i just think sometimes i dont know what that is.#maybe i cant learn. maybe i cant heal.#then again maybe i can. i guess maybe thats why im still here.#i hope someday i can believe that im truly cared for and that i won't be abandoned again.#losing people makes you feel jaded and hurt. although i understand why what happened#happened.

i see a lot of posts on here about how people need to stop freaking out about ai and acting like it’s the end of the world and like i get that. i think to an extent the attitude towards ai is overdramatic. but it is so, so, so annoying
#helen's musings#every time i open a new website some broken ai feature is waiting for me go awayyyyy#and they’re always personified and have cutesy names like you can’t fool me. this thing is not my friend

soooo at some point in the past week or so firefox on my desktop has lost the ability to play 60% of all videos anywhere and its Very Inconvenient
#.jtxt#afaict its not an extension issue and everything is up to date soooo . explodes#its also seemingly entirely arbitrary which videos it has decided its allergic to#except for tumblr which is 100% broken. i can always count on this website to come through for me

Don’t make light of rape and sexual assault for the sake of arguing with terfs. Jesus fucking christ. I’m actually appalled that so called feminists on this website are so quick and seemingly excited to turn rape and violent misogyny into a JOKE when a terf states a correct fact about it! Perfect example of not actually giving a shit about trans women, just “owning the terfs”
#some of you are so poisoned by arguing with strangers on the internet that you forget some things are fucking serious#you think everything’s a fucking joke! you think you can always ‘get’ them by making some sarcastic snappy comment#well when it comes to something this serious that affects so many trans people as well I think you look like a fucking villain#so many other things to say besides making a JOKE about rape and making it seem like it’s not a big deal or doesn’t happen#I think you’d all do a little better if you acknowledged that a broken clock is right twice a day#and just bc someone says something true doesn’t mean you need to agree w their ideology#for the website that’s always talking about Nuance and Critical Thinking most of you severely lack those skills

tighnari fans stop posting pictures of neglected/irresponsibly kept exotic pets because they remind you of your blorbo challenge
#fennec foxes are cute yes but they are also terrible pets#its bad for you and for the fox#ultimately theyre wild animals and there are things you just cant train into or out of them#and they have a very specific set of care needs including their diet and vet care that are pretty much impossible to meet#unless you can literally run a private zoo i guess#not to mention the whole having to be taken away from their parents way too early to be hand raised by humans thing#please be more skeptical about the welfare and safety of a completely undomesticated wild canine kept in someone's living room#like im no expert on this shit but its very clearly heavily questionable at least#just because you can find websites saying that fennec foxes 'aren't for everyone' doesn't mean people are informed enough about the needs o#this animal and responsible about keeping them. it is far more likely that any pet fox you see on social media is not in fact#being kept in adequate conditions#if people want the animal they will convince themselves that 'not for everyone' doesn't apply to them and overestimate themselves#you should always be skeptical about wild animals in captivity. even those kept by people who claim they've done their research#obviously don't fall for the idea that animals have to be broken out of zoos for their 'freedom' or whatever#just yknow. consider the animal beyond how cute it is. they are living creatures. not just fun internet images#also tighnari would fucking tear you a new one for this his whole job revolves around protecting wildlife from ignorant ppl and vice versa

I love how the search blog functions just completely break if someone turns on the hide my blog thing
#i think i understand why its broken but that feels like something people that run a whole website should be able to fix#in order to use it youd need to click a tag directly from a post but youd need to scroll and find a post w it which isn't always available

As a bisexual (mixed race) former academic w degrees in museum studies/art history & also former employee at an archaeology museum, WHEW......
#LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH MOST PEOPLE ON THIS WEBSITE HAVE EXTREMELY SHALLOW DISCOURSE#on EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE TOPICS#every. single. one.#like 80% of the takes people have about these topics on here are AT BEST um well you sure thought about 2% of this problem#its always like “repatriate all all objects to their country of origin!!!” which sure sounds smart and snappy but like#*rubs temples* you cannot do that for EVERYTHING#“repatriate everything to homeland museums! dismantle colonialist museums” okay great so now solve “museums are a site of nationalism#oh you didnt think that far ahead? so i guess we're not just sending everything from north korea back to north korea?#also hey wiseasses have you stopped to consider the vast majority of museums only display a tiny fraction of their collections?#and for archaeological museums a LOT of the stuff not on display is twenty bajillion pottery sherds excavated from garbage dumps?#and those bajillion pottery sherds and arrows etc are really valuable for STUDY and RESEARCH but they're not all PRETTY#“return everything stolen!!!” — person who hasnt considered that iraq probably doesnt want twenty thousand pieces of broken cookware back#there are times where repatriation is the right ethical IMPERATIVE and it should absolutely be done. that time is actually not “always.”#and the things where repatriation is a moral and ethical necessity for stewards of culture DESERVE to be treated w nuance#also so many of yall say things that just dont reflect reality of the situation for any of this#historians hide lgbtq history - lgbtq historians exist babe??#archaeologists are grave robbers? honestly most of them are digging up literal trash pits#theyre garbage robbers. the graves and hordes are the unusual stuff! thats FANCY shit.#academics never listen to— frankly thats a two way street yall dont listen to academics either#and on both sides many people arent worth listening to so you got me there i guess#like technically jordan peterson is an academic but hes still a hack you shouldnt listen to
