I forgot there’s a musician named Shamir and briefly got excited assuming tumblr allows me to question a stone-eating worm from Jewish folklore
I used to use “i-dont-use-this-blog-now” but 1) people still followed me on this blog + 2) it fucked w/ people’s tags so honestly,
every wikipedia entry for a comic book character is like
Classic Era: Professor Two-Apes was created when a bored alien glued two gorillas together with a magic rock. He later turned to evil when a colleague took credit for his research. In his debut appearance, Professor Two-Apes turned the Eiffel Tower into a banana.
Modern Era: Tu-Apes was the result of years of painful animal experimentation. He killed the doctor who created him, stole the blood-stained diploma off his wall, and now wears it around his neck. In the Conflagration crossover event, he was seen being beaten to death with one of his own spines. He was later resurrected by Satanists and currently suffers from a debilitating heroin addiction.

alright, who's the wise guy who made one of my old posts popular
STUFF I NEEEEED
Wikipedia, for those not familiar, is the largest online encyclopedia. Think Cracked but with slightly fewer fart jokes. Some people want that. Go figure. Despite being such an influential site, Wikipedia has fewer than 10 percent female editors. That leads to some strange problems. For example: The entries on porn stars and Pokemon are both more extensively detailed than the entries on prominent women. This page on American novelists is divided into “Female American Novelists” (for the women-folk) and “American Novelists” (for the men). They once removed all the female movie directors from their list of horror directors.
Basically, it seems like Wikipedia has some weird problems with regard to gender – so what’s up? Well, I was an editor from shortly after it was founded until just a couple of years ago. I am also a trans woman, and I can tell you exactly what’s up.
I'm not going to follow you back and I only post content here by accident, what the heck are you doing
