This exact issue came up in a serious business meeting at a corporate database job I used to have, to the eventual horror of everyone involved.
Took me a while to figure out why my coworker, who jumped to demonstrate on the laptop running the powerpoint, turned beet red and avoided everyone for weeks. Once it clicked I have never been so glad to have been half asleep at a boardtable. Thanks to my being too tired, I was slow on the uptake to volunteer when the bosses asked for an example of this supposedly superior AO3 search feature.
As a result, *I* was not the one who showed poorly punctuated porn to the entire department.
The problem with AO3 is that every online store's search function is bullshit by comparison
Hello Witcher fans, may I offer you my dumb doodles from the last month or so
KENDRICKS PROFORMANCE. KENDRICKS. PROFORMANCE.
1. When he went silent for the word pedophile he looked at trump which caused Trump to leave the stadium
2. One of his people came on stage and waved a palestine and Sudan flag and ran across the field well being chased by security
3. The people wearing red white and blue formed the us flag and then moved around at the end to turn into the trans flag
4. He talked abt how the superbowl is rigged
5. When booking him the NFL asked why there weren't any white ppl on stage and his manager said "I thought we didn't do DEI hires anymore"
6. He brought up SERENA WILLIAMS. Her blackness has been fucking dogged on and she crip walked.
+TONS more stuff. He knows he's not fucking coming back and he doesn't want to.
FUCK FOOTBALL. FUCK THE NFL. ART WILL ALWAYS SHOW THE HEART OF THE PEOPLE.
I've heard 'Pure of heart, hot of bod, dumb of ass' as being the prerequisites but I love the different theories
i am an advocate for Big Dumb Man rights and i will not take this blatant erasure by the anime twitter users
As tiring as all this shit is, I can't in good faith continue to use spotify.
For anyone else jumping ship, I used exportify.app to save my favorite playlists.

Edit: I'm used to maybe getting a like or two with the occasional single reblog (of mostly shitposts) so when I saw "99+" notifications I thought my app had glitched. So you can imagine my overwhelm when I was hoping to actually reach someone for once but never ever expected this, much less 10k or even 1k (or 100 if I'm being honest!). I do see people's questions and wanted to be able to provide answers but other users have already been very helpful! (thank you all so much!) So I recommend going through the notes for tips and suggestions.
So far I've downloaded Deezer and used a combination of tunemymusic and soundiz to transfer my playlists. Some seemed to only transfer the name of the playlist but no songs so I'd try the other site then it would work fine. I forget which but one has transferring more than 500 tracks at a time behind a paywall so I just did one playlist at a time and it worked. It also lets you check/uncheck individual tracks. I also like that it would show you what didn't transfer (for not being on Deezer) so I can find them elsewhere. I think the most that failed at once was maybe like 10ish tracks from my anime playlist which makes sense. It was a few specific artists.
I usually try to keep my blog peaceful (but not necessarily neutral) because we all need an escape from doomscrolling and people don't realize how quickly they can drown out your entire timeline/feed/dash/etc with said doom, despairing, and even flagrant misinformation. It doesn't mean I'm ignoring what's going on or not doing the work irl. I personally have days when I just don't have the mental capacity to process all the terrible things happening and need to see just fanart or laugh at shitposts so my goal is to provide that space for anyone needing that same breather. Hell, I just lost my job less than two weeks ago in an unexpected layoff and rent's due in a couple days so that's where my focus has been instead of the news. So I'm super grateful that one of my rare "please look at this" moments was actually, well, seen.
Johnny being asked to supress the part of him that's flaming for the sake of a traditional relationship doesn't seem like the healthiest dynamic ever. XD Luckily he later gets to be true to himself by dating a bunch of aliens, each weirder than the last :)
Now Doris, I'm sure Johnny must be THE most frustraiting boyfriend in the universe But you must know that that's not a promise he can morally keep in all circumstances Amazing Spiderman 21
This does help explain why people keep getting away with impersonating him, though
Yea we can pretend an off the rack costume shop outfit would be even worth having as anything other than a last resort. Amazing Spiderman 26
It’s been one whole year since i joined this fandom! So i wanted to pay homage to the very silly joke on the first witcher post i made (which is in turn a reference to this proZD skit)
Anyway, thank you all for your support this past year! I’m glad y’all have liked my silly little drawings enough to stick around ❤
Based on my own and my familiy's life experiences, I've long held the sneaking suspicion many ghost stories on one side were 'dangit do you think they saw?!' tidbits on the other.
Imagine going on a walk on a really foggy day, enjoying the vaguely eerie, faint and distant aesthetic of it all, and the soft quiet of having no other people around. You're about to cross a familiar bridge when you suddenly feel lightheaded. It's nothing to worry about, just a weirdly wobbly feeling that means you should sit down. And probably get more iron in your diet. Either way, you need to get up and you need to cross this bridge to get home. But now being alone has put this weird fear in you - irrational or not - that if you walk over the bridge, you might get dizzy again and fall from it.
Weird and lonely problems require weird and lonely solutions. Since you're all alone here anyhow, you can act strange if you need to. So you get down on all fours - not on your hands and knees, but on the balls of your feet, like a dog. And like this, you start to slowly creep over the bridge. Nice and slow, happy about your solution that made it feel safe to cross and get home. You can be weird if you want to, nobody's judging here.
You're creeping at a comfortable speed, very slowly, but the bridge isn't that long. You can kind of make out the outlines of things on the other side through the mist. The end of the bridge, a familiar tree, a streetlamp, the silhouette of a bush and-
A person. A human figure. You freeze mid-step to stare. That is the most definitely the outline of a person, standing perfectly still. Staring right at you. You don't know how long this moment lingers, but eventually you can't hold your balance anymore and you have to step forward, placing your open palm back on the cold damp bridge. The figure turns, and takes off running. Bolting off in a very normal, startled way that anyone would when they're spooked.
It occurs to you that you only saw the vague outline of an unexpected person, an obscure figure standing in the fog. They, however, saw the vague outline of you, something perhaps vaguely human-shaped, but moving in a way that people simply do not, slowly, very slowly, creeping over a bridge.
Assuming that nobody would see you, you accidentally became someone's unexplained Silent Hill experience.
what are your favorite hogan's heroes eps of all time?( i've been trying to come up with my top 10 and realized how many good episodes there are....)
Oooh, good question! I actually think about this quite a bit because these are the episodes I usually go to when I pull out my DVDs (the flipside is that it means there are a lot of amazing episodes I simply do not think about and rarely rewatch).
This list is roughly in order, though I'm sure there'd be some rearranging if you were to ask me again in a couple of weeks. "Klink vs. the Gonculator" will always remain number 1, though.
"Klink vs. the Gonculator"
"The Swing Shift"
"One in Every Crowd"
"How to Catch a Papa Bear"
"An Evening of Generals"
"Diamonds in the Rough"
"Color the Luftwaffe Red"
"Hogan, Go Home"
"Nights in Shining Armor"
"Man's Best Friend is Not His Dog"
With a special shout-out to the first five minutes of "That's No Lady, That's My Spy" (but ONLY the first five minutes).
Hope is a lie if you mistake it for a promise. No, hope is a gamble. A chance that it might work out in your favour. A possibility that those odds are worth the risk. A cornered rat does not launch to bite a dog in the face with absolute confidence that it will escape with its life.
It attacks for the chance that it might.
