i need selfship mutuals PLEASEEEE

if i ever tell you "i cant possibly read a book in a day!" i am LYING. i am a FUCKING LIAR. because last night i read a 50k word fanfic in three fucking hours.

the distinction between these two is so funny. ruth harker balancing a crisis of faith and the earnest love for her child vs longlegs in the corner going ‘oooh i love my little ciphers’

There is a whole series of posts in slack right now about people getting their Instagram and facebook accounts hacked and losing 10+ years of photos. Wedding albums gone, photos of deceased loved ones, etc all unavailable.

The wounds are too fresh for me to chime in there right now but as your friendly neighborhood archivist

SAVE YOUR OWN COPIES OF STUFF.

Hacks happen. Accounts get disabled. We’ve also recently seen big websites like Cartoon Network, MTV News, and Comedy Central get shut down by corporate interests. Social media, the cloud, corporate websites are just someone else’s computer. And you don’t have control over it.

Remember LOCKSS: Lots of Copies Keeps Stuff Safe.

If you want to keep it have personal copies and back them up regularly.

Get one (or a few) external hard drives and set a calendar reminder that x times a year you back up your stuff. Open all emails from cloud hosting companies you might use (no ugly we are selling your stuff to some AI company or shutting down surprises).

a bunny hops into a bar. the bartender asks the bunny "would you like something hoppy?" and the bunny responds "no actually i don't like hoppy beverages and i think it's a little offensive to ask that just because i'm a bunny" and the bartender goes "oh you're right, I'm sorry, it won't happen again" and then the bunny says "death before dishonor" as the clouds part and from the sky's expanse descends the face of God who spits in the face of the bartender, killing the bartender instantly and banishing their spirit to an eternal spiritual limbo from which they shall never ascend. then the bunny hops,

had a guy ask me out recently.

VENT POST

hes like 24 and has known me since i was 17.

he literally asked how old i was when we met and when i told him i was 17 he was like "man, dating is hard these days"

i was at a convention that he was at like an hour before he asked me out (it was via text) and when my dad came to pick me up, this guy walked up to the car and introduced himself to my father.

i rejected this guy asap with ZERO hesitation

i reminded him that i am aroace and he KNOWS that

i wish i couldve said "no im taken" but i cant because he would know i wouldn't be talking about a real person. and he already judges me for being attracted to fictional characters, so i cant reveal that im a self shipper.

at the aforementioned convention, i hugged a friend we have in common. and this guy pulled the "aw wheres my hug" shit.

our friends blame his boundary issues on him being neurodivergent, but thats not an excuse for this level of shit. especially when the main person hes being weird to is ALSO neurodivergent.

he continuously pushes boundaries even after hes told to stop.

even after i told him "no, im aroace" he STILL tried pushing and was like "i dont need anything romantic, i just want a partner"

GOD IM SO PISSED

why do men always think that i owe them shit

i dont think im very attractive. definitely not conventionally attractive. but i ALWAYS have men be weird to me.

i hate it so much.

I will not elaborate

i am going to fight adi shankar
