Y’know people talk about Audible having almost complete control of the audiobooks market and them having the rights to everything and I mean, I’m sure they’ve got a fucking hefty chunk
They also have exactly fucking NONE of the books I’ve wanted for the past 5 YEARS, new or old. They’re not even close to the only players in the game, they don’t even have Percy Jackson.
They didn’t get Iron Widow or Zachary Ying, or the Nine Eyes Of Lucien, like at this point it feels very personal cuz we have 2 credits for free audible books on the family account from 7 years ago because that’s how long it’s been since they got a book I fucking want
I love me other audiobook dealer (Audiobooks Now) and they do great sales very often, but also Never On The Books I Want
I am Suffering
(Obviously we have one audible account between about 20 family members we aren’t animals and no one else has found shit either)
#audible#like yeah they have a majority#but y’all talking about them like they’re the only name in the game are just wrong#like they missed so many best sellers#making my mom get her own audiobooks now if she wants the rest of the tanya huffs tho#we support the competition#audiobooks#i love my app it WILL NOT pause for anything but the pause button#so if i turn off my headphones it just plays from the speakers#also if i answer my phone congrats the book is still playing

i really do admire how lando tries to not give a fuck (that 'whatever' really saddened me so much) but he actually does, and a lot.
guy doesn't even want anything absurd, he just wants the support of his team for the last fucking 4 races but no... let's just get humiliated for one point on international tv💀.
they're really stretching him thin — and i mean it in a emotional and mental wellbeing way. he is obviously inherently selfless and quite literally does not hold self-esteem, but in the last year we've seen him trying to be more sure of himself and trying to be selfish for once. the moment he does that though, he gets accused of being the spawn of satan. and then the team does everything in the world to make it harder for him.
so i really do admire him, because i literally would PERSONALLY leave the sport after this one season.
he's so much stronger than i am.
#im not saying he's not fit for the sport#but like his very dear friend carlos#it feels like he not only keeps his heart on his sleeve#but he also gives it away so freely in a sport full of rabid dogs that want some fresh meat#and he gets really hurt in the process#i relate to him so much bc of this#im not joking when i say his 'friendship' with max is nearing the end#and the team is not even mean they just don't get that when they have championships on the line YOU UNFORTUNATELY HAVE TO PLAY FAVORITES#we got lesser teams doing it from the getgo when they have no reason to💀#and suddenly mclaren doesn't know how?#is it really that hard??#landino#lando norris#brazil gp 2024#rambling#it all started from hungary btw they really set the mood there and its been... foul#it's not even oscar's fault#he is a competitive teammate#he has every right to race#does lando really have anyone atp?#and yes yes i know they're rich billionaires they get paid for this#still doesn't mean they're insensible or immune to feeling betrayed or deceived or just sad bc they trusted someone#and he's a scorpio too so im SHOCKED about how he handles this#ALSO HE GIVES TOO MANY FUCKS#and he rightfully doesn't even give the blame to anyone but himself most of the times when i'd argue that it almost never is#your team is supposed to be your backbone in your first actual fight for the championship... and even after all the years of constant work#and points he brought#not even when finally the car is competitive they can actually do their job and support their driver that is the top contender?

Nintendo filed for the patent after Palworld was already out. In fact, the feature was already in several games before Pokemon.
So they legally stole an idea and are suing people for using such a broad concept of said idea.
Oh! And now they're taking down people's Channels for making videos about emulation (This (Emulation) has long be established as Legal? Legal. Bastards.)
If Nintendo wins this lawsuit, Japanese companies are going to patent Eeeverything and start suing Eeeeveryooone.
Nintendo Needs To Lose So Hard They Lose The Patent. Genuinely anything else? Kills the games industry.
Nintendo is willing to, Once, Again, Throw the entire Industry under the bus for Just A Bit More Money. These fuckers aren't even competing with Anyone, they just want to destroy competition. Remember what became the ESRB trials? Did you watch those? Because that was the first time Nintendo put the industry into uncertainty and censorship Just To Spite Their One Competition, Sega. Had the US government not been reasonable? And say "regulate yourselves" Gaming would have died.
Nintendo is absolutely disgusting, pathetic, incapable of competing with even it's own fans without pulling a gun on them, but hell has no fury like Nintendo's legal team seeing anything thay challenges Nintendo's perfect little image.
Please. Do Not Support Nintendo Anymore. If you care about Art, Creation, people's Careers, yourself and your friends, you will choose to harm Nintendo'a BottomLine by no longer giving them money, by talking shit online. Nothing else will work.
If Japanese courts take Nintendo's side, nothing will stop companies from patenting first person shooters, from patenting platformers, from patenting MOBA's, nothing is safe.
What Nintendo has effectively started is quite literally the end of gaming. They're Attacking Indie developers, they're attacking all artists of all sectors, they're attacking your ability to create, they're attacking people's livelihood, they're attacking everything built up over the course of nearly 6 decades, just to spite One Fucking Game.
#palworld#Nintendo#honestly if you're not scared you're not informed#literally the only way to stop this is if the consumer fights back#we are the other half of the free market There Is No Other Regulator Not One 0 Zilch Nada Nope#only us#of we do nothing? They win by default#straight up Japanese copyright/legal/patent is dumb as shit and there's 0 reliability#Nintendo needs to drop this fucking childish bullshir#and we need to focus on killing their Patent#pokemon#nintendo#gaming industry#I've been saying it for years now ya'll#actually since childhood so a decade minimum#Don't Support These Companies#don't support console gaming because all the big boys are dreadful for the industrt#and who else but Nintendo would come first to prove that the entire industry needa regulation so fucking hard#To support gaming you really need to push for it to be open for anyone to be involved with#Nintendo on the other hand thinks randomly filing patents at anytime should enable them to attack even the smallest of competition#Really consider the company you probably barely think about since it stop trying to compete with literally anyone#is being so anti-competitive. Not towards a console. But all of the industry#this today a nobody fuckin company#really thinks they should have such dominance of the industry#fuck Nintendo

Wondering why a fellow blogger would suddenly block me from her posts ? We have had no interactions other than me doing an occasional reblog from HER content. We have similar tastes but do not post the exact same stuff. I am dumbfounded why she would do that. Why would we not support one another? This just feels very competitive to me. I’m not here for the likes and followers although I appreciate them immensely! I’m here to find inspiration and provide inspiration. Tumblr is my safe haven, my peaceful escape. There is enough ugly out in the world, so it is upsetting to find it here. My biggest pet peeve is people who PRETEND to be nice and sweet, but actually aren’t. If you have read my rant this far, thanks for listening. I’m gonna go do some self reflection as to why I’m letting this bother me…hope you all enjoy the weekend. 🌞

Okay- the community has spoken that Trans Telemachus is very much being supported here and a fun possible head cannon for a lot of people
But the question is, is Telemachus Trans fem or Trans masc??
(I’ve seen a lot of votes for Trans masc and Odysseus fucking up the sirens for misgendering his son. But I’ve also seen arguments for Trans fem Telemachus as when Odysseus comes home, she comes out to her dad)
#This is all silly#Not an actual competition#Just being a little silly billy#epic the musical#telemachus epic the musical#trans telemachus real??#trans telemachus#God damn it now I want to write a fanfic of trans fem Telemachus coming out to Odysseus-#I want people to fight on this#Be oh so serious#Defend your answer to the death#But also we are all very supportive here#And we all love and support Tele and the trans community either way :)#Neither trans fem nor trans masc is better#we love and support them equally#And they’re both just as valid all the same#This is all just for shits and giggles

father ophelia. i need ur multi paragraph analysis on how camning date would happen. who would ask who out
Camning is such a weird pair to consider as an actual couple instead of two mutually pining idiots because I can't in good faith say that either of them would ever admit to having feelings for the other.
Don't get me wrong, Cameron isn't the type to suppress or deny his feeings or anything - in fact he'd be ecstatic at the prospect of having a crush on someone, because it's yet another wordly experience he's been deprived of his whole life that he's living for the first time. And that's exactly the issue; Cameron has no idea how to go about expressing these things, save for whatever romance based literature/tv shows he was exposed to growing up and, knowing Cameron, he'd be more than aware that they doesn't exactly portray a realistic perspective on real-life relationships. So he's back to square one when it comes to knowledge on how to deal with his feelings.
Which would mean he'd be the type to go completely non-verbal in front of Lightning, or otherwise be a stuttering mess. A pathetic puddle of a boy who has no idea how to deal with these new, weird feelings save for whispering "oh no he's hot" to himself.
On the other hand, Lightning is extremely prideful. Extremely prideful. He'd be completely in denial about having a crush on Cameron of all people because he's the antithesis of everything Lightning holds in high regard; Cameron isn't athletic or strong, he's not outwardly headstrong or competitive (at first glance, though Cameron does have a spine hidden somewhere in that red hoodie) and Lightning wouldn't see Cameron as someone who could relate to him in any way. Keep in mind, Lightning's a bit of an egotist, so he'd be under the assumption that his ideal partner would be a reflection of himself.
And Lightning isn't very bright, despite his namesake, so he wouldn't realise that's exactly why he likes Cameron so much. He's impressed by Cameron's fountain of knowledge and keen intellect. He's astounded by how Cameron can use his wit and his determination to win challenges without having to brute forcing his way to victory. He thinks Cameron is adorable and experiences cuteness aggression every time they lock eyes. So on so forth.
So with Cameron's Cameronness and Lightning's staunch denial, there's only one way these two would ever get together.
Lightning accidentally confesses.
Be it through an insult gone wrong during the competition, or maybe a freudian slip in a conversation post-RotI, or even him just plain denying any feelings for Cameron unprompted and inadvertantly outing himself as a Cameron Liker through his defensiveness. Either way, Cameron hears this confirmation of returned feelings and all of the knowledge he's accrued from his mother's books/shows comes in swinging - he asks Lightning to have dinner with him. And surprisingly, Lightning accepts.
...Because it's free food, not because he likes the wimp. That's his excuse.
And the two hit it off. Cameron spends the whole first date sweating profusely but miraculously not putting his foot in his mouth. Though he does oftentimes get too technical and booksmart for Lightning to understand what he's saying, but Lightning nods along politely anyway because he finds the enthusiasm on Cameron's face endearing.
In turn, Lightning's initial jibing insults (which, subconciously, he's only really using to keep up appearences) peter off into genuine compliments as he realises that wow, he actually really enjoys spending time with Cameron, and Cameron is really smart but not condecending in the slightest when he asks for elaboration on things he doesn't understand, and Cameron's got a lot of interesting thoughts that he's never considered, and...
Lightning realises that he might be very, very gay for Cameron.
In turn, Cameron's almost vibrating with excitement because he's talking to Lightning, and Lightning is talking back, and there's this natural chemistry between them that even he in all of his inexperience can feel sparking in the air now that Lightning's walls of superiority have finally crumbled somewhat. He's on a date with the boy he likes and it's going really well.
(None of his research could've prepared him for the actual experience of a first date - and oddly enough, Cameron is thankful that he didn't have any preconceived expectations for the night.)
The night goes well, they eat food at some fancy restaurant that Cameron pays for with his winnings, and as they go to leave Lightning - because he's not one to be outshone in the competitive context of being a "good date haver" - gives Cameron a peck at the corner of his mouth. It's brief, a ghost of an action really, but it's enough to have Cameron visibly light up as he returns the favour.
-
At some point after they've been going on these dates for a while (Lightning more often than not taking Cameron to various sports games "for the experience", and Cameron indulging Lightning by taking him on hikes whilst he studies the wildlife they come across, ect ect) they breach the topic of being boyfriends in an awkward but sweet conversation that Lightning spends the next few months poking fun at Cameron for.
#Imagine this with me: during the finale Lightning accidentally reveals that he thinks Cameron is attractive and Cameron pauses in place in--#his ironman suit and asks if he wants to get a pizza or something after the competition.#And then Ligtning says YES. The crowd goes wild - well. The crowd is mostly silent with shock and confusion but you get the idea.#Probably not how it would ACTUALLY go down but I'll be damned if it's not a funny scenario.#Especially because they immediately go back to beating the shit out of each other.#Cameron initiates the “what are we?” talk and Lightning - who's been under the impression they were an item since date one - answers with--#something stupid like “a couple of dudes” and Cameron realises he's in love with an idiot (he already knew).#Camning is very good because it's pairing an idiot who thinks he's right with a sheltered genius too polite to correct him.#Cameron absolutely indulges a lot of Lightning's unintentional silliness. It's part of his charm.#Also Lightning is objectively really cool (before he opens his mouth) and Cameron 100% supports him in all of his athletic endavours.#total drama#td cameron#td lightning#camning#silly ideas#replies

Guess Who? Global Series Panthers edition.
my favourite dynamic for dumb games that don't particularly matter is sore loser who's trying not to be a sore loser and man who acts like winning means he gets the keys to the city rather than just a participation sticker
#eetu luostarinen#niko mikkola#florida panthers#2425#the global series is a gift#if not because we get to make the finns sit down and do dumb stuff for us in the name of patriotism#im sorry pairing mikksy and luosty for content will always be funny#because of the way mikksy tries to downplay the irrational need of needing to completely destroy him (in competition) (but also-)#but also both of them choosing their fellow finns because god forbid they choose anyone else#you two are so predictable#“well ive got a 25% (to win) right now if i guess... (guesses despite the bad odds)”#the inherent need to destroy luosty calls to him because luosty is insufferable when he wins#but has mikksy considered hes worse when HE wins#TOOK THE 25% CHANCE TO BET ON LUOSTY BEING AN EGOISTICAL BASTARD SO WHO LOOKS BAD NOW#on par with “close your eyes for this part. what colour is mikkolas eyes”#[mikksy blocking the side of his face so if luosty cheats he cant win to which luosty doesnt cheat and still loses]#LUOSTY SMKRKING TOO OH HE KNEW#MIKKSY IS SO INSUFFERABLE WHEN HE WINS#THE SHARED LOOK OF GLEE WHEN HE REALISES ITS SASHA#“thats easy! thats too easy!! (sore loser)” “well try mine now (man who is literally set up luosty for success so he doesnt get sulky)”#“i mean... is it mo?” “(laughs of utter disbelief and a little concern)” LUOSTY YOU JUST ASKED THE ARE THEY CANADIAN QUESTION#AND MIKKSY SAID NO. WHAT DO YOU THINK PAUL IS?????#also this most likely being filmed after the “i think mikkola curses at me in finnish” saga MAKES ME CRY LUOSTY STOP TEASING MIKKSY#POOR MAN WAS SWEATING HAVING TO DENY IT AND SAY PAUL WAS JUST BEING FUNNY PLEASEEEE#“almost... lundy 😄” “of course it is” PLEASE#this just in the kitten has teeth now so hes on his way to being paul huh 😭😭😭😭#crying i love these two so much my emotional support finn pair

Friendly reminder to support your local library because there are plenty of people who think libraries are stupid and unimportant and MAN are they loud sometimes.
#comet comments#it's been a day#public libraries are the backbone of community#and i just listened to 45 minutes of a local meeting where a “library supporter” shit all over the library budget#and then said basically that if we want the town to do stuff for us (hi the library is owned by the town)#then we should rethink paying our librarian a competitive wage

Bro I thought this was a joke what do you mean it's getting more real.
#listen as a joke I enjoy this#as an actual thing I think this is insane and terrible for lewis AND ferrari#ferrari are not supportive they are controlling of their drivers down to their fashion and public appearances#And they do NOT share Lewis' values and will not have his back against racism. Not that merc always did but. Even less so#and ferrari atm is in a Building stage it needs to be led which I know Lewis CAN do but should he have to? at this stage in his career?#or will that just demoralise him and lead to faster retirement?#and that's before we even get into the Two Number One Drivers problem which we KNOW ferrari CANNOT handle#they have never once in 24 years been able to balance having two competitive drivers they can't do it they just can't#they can't even balance charles and carlos#idk it seems like a recipe for INSTANT bad blood man

Hey there! I'm actually a big fan of your work , and as a rookie writer myself, I wanted to know if you have some motivation advises (Comparison gives me so much writer blocks and I don't even post)
I love how I received and chose to answer this ask after having a lack of motivation streak that I only broke quite literally a few hours ago xD
I think it's interesting you're bringing up comparison - it honestly might be at the root of what you're specifically experiencing so I'm gonna focus my response on that. I could be off, but it sounds like seeing what other people are doing feels intimidating and puts a lot of pressure on you. So if it isn't "perfect" or "up to par" with what others seem to be doing, it's not good enough to post.
This is my personal take:
I saw a post (wish I could link it but can't remember where it was) that really resonated with me not too long ago. It talked about how we've been conditioned as a society in a way to see a lot of the arts as something to perfect; if you want to sing, you should focus on learning how to become a good singer. If you are a dancer, you should focus on learning forms to become a better dancer.
The post goes on to make the point that this is not why the arts were founded in the first place.
We as humans began to sing because we enjoyed singing. We danced because we liked to dance. We paint, write, and draw because - at each art's purest and most rudimentary form - it is the power and experience of personal expression. The benefit wasn't to be perfect, it was to enjoy the creative outlet in itself.
This is what has always connected me to writing. This is why I'm okay with posting the way I do, and why I don't mind light humor about my typos and all that. Because at the end of the day, you're writing because you enjoy it. You're writing to express and share with others. And you're doing it all for free. Your willingness to give the gift of your creativity out to the world is beautiful in itself.
This next part might sound a lot easier said than done, but again, this is all just my personal route that goes in conjunction with this philosophy:
See other writers/creators as your peers. Think of it like a potluck - everyone's bringing their own food, and everyone has different ideas. But it's cool because now you have mashed potatoes along with your favorite food, and someone else brought ice cream. No one dish is going to "win" - it's the culmination of everyone's efforts that fills plates up and make the event (fandom) enjoyable and connective.
Recognize the way in which your fic is uniquely yours. What's the touch you want to have? Things you enjoy that you want to feel yourself as you create, and perhaps share with others? Romance, humor, fun, peace, angst? Maybe certain situations for characters, or a moment you want to see with your favorite ship? The more you get in touch with what you want to portray, the more credit you'll be able to rightfully give your own work.
Engage with creators/commenters that are additive to your personal enjoyment and creativity. Going with the whole "this is all for fun, and is basically everyone's hobby over life and death" thing - the people you surround yourself with, or even the content you consume, can directly affect your experience in writing for a fandom. I personally get a lot out of talking about my ideas with others and through inviting and responding to feedback from people that engage with my work. If you like engaging with someone else's work, go ahead! See what stands out to you as inspiring, and let that be your takeaway to mull on (as you're essentially learning more about yourself and what you find entertaining or engaging).
I'm gonna get off my soapbox now (lol), but I also wanted to add one more thing:
There unfortunately is a competitive culture in a lot of recreational spaces, and especially with the arts and over the internet lol. There are people who like to overly criticize because it makes them feel better about themselves/their own work, there are people who may choose to dislike you or your work simply because they view you as competition, etc.
These kinds of choices some (not the majority of people!) may choose to make hold no actual reflection of your character or what you're writing. It is someone else's reflection being projected onto you. You may not be able to control what they do, but you can control how you respond. And my advice on that?
It's your free time. Don't give the haters a platform, just disengage & tune into the folks that uplift & encourage you instead. B)
#alright I wrote a LOT I'll stop it there#as you can tell I'm ~ passionate ~ about these kinds of things#no but really creative spaces should ALWAYS be inclusive & non-competitive#competitive spaces suck#I will DIE on this hill#Should we make a “positive vibes only” dipplinshipping support group?#Indigo Disk Kieran isn't invited xD#lol okay but really ty for the ask though I'm flattered you'd come to me!! I believe in you!!!#asks#writing tips

The only people who benefit when black people and jews are divided are white supremacists
#research at my job rn is focused on the time frame at twitter immediately after kanye said all that stuff#so im having to read the absolute worst takes ever#about bs that he was saying at the time#and a lot of people were really exposed to these antisemitic conspiracy theories through kanye#and it just makes me really fucking sad idk#we are stronger when we are together#like jews have always been at civil rights rallies and fighting for equality of all kinds#we both experience discrimination and persecution from the same people#it isnt a competition white supremacists hate us too#a lot of the antisemitism im seeing from this sample set is the same conspiracies that have been around for thousands of years#about jews controlling minorities#so that they can... idk control the world and oppress white people?#but i cant recall a time where minorities actually started to believe they were being controlled by jews before this sample set#it hurts it really does#anyway ill always support black people and jews and i dont have to choose between the two#i took a course with some incredible professors that are like the forefront academics of african american and african diasporic studies#called the intersectionality of jewishness and blackness#our histories arent just parallel#theyre intertwined#anyway ill get off my soapbox i just have to read this bullshit for my job and it made me upset lol#jumblr#judaism#frumblr#jewblr

so wait, since i was just reminded of the recorder thing donna talked about in the giggle, i now have a question for uk ppl: do yall learn the recorder in school? like in a music class? and like how much do yall have music class over there?
#this is a very interesting topic for me as a music educator from the us#ik a guy from ireland and he said there was no music class in schools for him and like not the same country BUT same island#(as northern ireland. not the others in the uk but still)#and its so wild and fascinating music education is a fascinating field and the way we do it in the us seems to be largely vvv unique to us#for clarification on how things are different so ppl have a better idea on how to answer my question lol:#in the us music class is standard in elementary schools and most places have general music until abt 5th/6th grade (year 6/7)#(general music = basics- music games learn recorder SOME notation-reading; often classroom instruments eg boomwhackers claves maracas#orff instruments if you're lucky/from a school district that isnt poor. also some world music)#its less standardized after that and not every school will have music after middle school but concert bands and choirs are both huge here#choirs start right on the heels of general music classes (sometimes start earlier + students elect to be in choir instead of general music)#bands USUALLY start in 4th grade (year 5) but sometimes can be later 5th/6th (year 6/7) or even 7th (year 8) (WAY less common)#depends on the state generally 4th is most common i think (choirs start at around the same time i think so probs 4th but choir isnt my area#orchestras are weird bc theyre a lot less common but can commonly start younger bc of one of the big approaches to music ed (suzuki method)#so like maybe 3rd grade (year 4) maybe 4th w/ band (year 5) but i have a friend who teaches at a private school#& said they have 1st/2nd graders (year 2/3)!! orchestra is also not my area though#also marching bands: vv common! usually just in hs (starting 9th grade / year 10) bc it supports the football team at games#but starting in 8th grade (year 9) is also common (sometimes even 7th / year 8)#theres two different styles: collegiate/show band and competition. former is very rah rah pop music etc; competition is more abstract#show bands are clearly designed to entertain whereas competition is designed to be more impressive and tell a story#so more impact moments abstract shapes/lines on the field and has movements - opener ballad closer (fast-slow-fast)
