Shits Got Me Gigging Non-stop For Like Thirty Minutes

Ok serious question time, I've got this friend and they want to transition. I asked why and they said that it was to get their partner to like them more. Their partner has a weird thing for trans people and wanted them to transition because "They would look so much better if they were trans". Their partner is really horrible and has been very manipulative in the past so my friend doing stuff they don't like to please them is something that happens a lot. We try to get them to break up with their partner but it's to no luck and most of my friends don't talk to them anymore because of how rude they can get when you say something about their partner. I told them that transitioning just to please someone else is a bad idea and unhealthy but they called me transphobic and that "I haven't let my past self go". Of course I don't have any problem with transitioning but when I first met my best friend (This is a different friend then the one I was previously talking about), bird had neo pronouns and as someone who didn't speak English originally, it was hard to learn the language and kinda break the language rules at the same time so I ended up just calling bird "she" and bird never corrected me even though they had a problem with it. We both sorted out that issue a while ago but I need to know, was It wrong to question my friend about their transition? I really know nothing about trans stuff since the first time I heard of that was when I first met my best friend. Please don't be mean because I really don't know if I was wrong or not.

(Also btw I call my best friend "they" sometimes because that's what bird was fine with me calling them when I was learning English and it just stuck)

Random hot take that might not be a hot take but I don’t really like billford

I still think their neat in their toxic yaoi way but lowk overrated

Don’t kill me

the vampire Mumbo headcanon is really funny cause like. people draw him as this suave scary dapper vampire man and in reality he is just THE most unserious guy on the hermitcraft server. that man has never stood up for himself in his life. his voice goes 3 octaves higher every time something even mildly inconvenient happens and he acts like it's the end of the world. he's been on the server since season 2 and he's barely socially competent with anyone other than Grian Scar and Iskall, and Scar is pushing it if Grian isn't there. he's terrified of one on one conversations. he's terrified of practically anything that moves. trying to imagine Mumbo actually having to suck blood out of someone is the funniest thing in the world. he would be too scared to do that to a COW. keep up the good work everyone I love vampire mumbo so much

Just started watching Pokemon Horizons and I wish I did sooner because the evil twink is pretty

Amazon is removing our right to download Kindle books onto our computers on Feb 26.

What does this mean? It means, if you buy an ebook from Amazon and you want to use a different ereader, you will not be able to download the file onto your computer, remove its DRM using Calibre, and transfer the book to any device of your choice. After February 26, you’ll be locked to Amazon’s ecosystem indefinitely. Books will only be transferable between Amazon devices and apps. You do not own the ebooks you buy. Amazon can (and has) remove ebooks from your library.

Download them now and use the Calibre to remove the DRM. I highly suggest buying ebooks from other places from now on. Links to resources below.

Using a Kindle without Using Amazon

If you’re like me, you have a kindle and you’re not financially in the position to buy a new $130 ereader from a different brand. So what are you to do? The best thing you can do is use Libby/Overdrive. It’s very simple. The Libby app has an option to link your Amazon account to the app and so when you borrow a book from your library, it’ll automatically go to your kindle.

You can also sideload books onto your kindle if the file is compatible and DRM free. Here’s an article listing DRM free book sources.

Supporting Indie Authors

Now this is where things get tricky. Most indie authors make the bulk of their sales on Amazon. It’s awful, but that’s the nature of the beast. Use your own discretion when buying indie books from Amazon. Check and see if that author sells their books on other platforms or buy their book physically (if the option is available) so that you actually own the book you buy.
