still sometimes think about how when my apartment got raided by cops back in 2021 i had a massive neon sign on the wall of my living room that just said "crime"

i think they should make the 4th of july incredibly associated with homestuck so everyone below like 30 sees it as a massive cognitohazard and no one will celebrate the US anymore

i have been informed the 4th of july is nepeta day i will be celebrating nepeta next year

(i didn't make this image btw)

fun fact: you can easily turn any conservative into a fanfic writer by posting something not entirely negative about china

i wish china gave me pudding, some headpats and called me a good girl whenever i do well at hacking

going forward i will only consume problematic media

and well, let's jusr say,, uncritically too

last night matt sent me a twitter dm asking me for more info on the harassment im currently receiving on tumblr, promising to elevate it to the TOS team, before then proceeding to block me on twitter before i even saw the message??

tumblr content moderation just dealt with all FIVE hate speech reports i have made over the last 24 hours in one go, i am not sure if they are actually putting in extra work on catching up right now or if this is because im a big blog and have publicly talked about these hateful asks, but im glad something is being done at least. it will still take a lot for me to be able to really trust this site again, all because of a public tantrum of a CEO, but at least some people on the inside appear to be trying to do what they can.

i don't believe the mailman exists, it HAS to be our parents who bring us packages and letters there's no way for one guy to do all that

"we're all sort of making it up at the end of the day" is definitely one of those beautifully true and reusable quotes originating from a context you wouldn't expect*

*trumps lawyer said this in court today when probed on what he is basing a legal assertion he made on

The second half of the post hit me like a truck

this whole thing is actually interesting is a kind of horrifying way, cuz Trump's whole strategy with this is just to demand his lawyers make disbarrably bad arguments purely to drag out his cases until the 2024 election so that, if he wins, he can claim presidential immunity from prosecution and then pardon himself for the crimes he did(which, technically, he's not allowed to do, but with all the partisan republican judges we have these days saying the law is whatever they want it to be, legality's rapidly becoming a meaningless concept here anyway so *shrug*).

i think it's pretty awesome how all public transport is free actually, it's like really nice of them how you can just not pay if you don't feel like it or can't afford it

alright so i hate doing this, and i hoped the latest article would naturally result in enough money dripping in (ive so far made like 5 dollars from that, so no), but after moving related extra expenses in the last two months on top of the regular expenses + some other bills i am now almost 3000 usd in debt and out of money, as always im very glad about anything i can get via ko-fi or from merch sales (attention! production and shipping will always be a bit delayed when im low on money because of how i have to pay for production, so give current merch orders a month or two to ship out), and monthly support via ko-fi obviously helps the most! especially with budgeting and to avoid debt in the future

thanks a lot to anyone who supports me and makes it possible for me to just do my thing and produce free research and content for everyone <3

This is a NO GIMMICK ACCOUNT ZONE

If your shit is called something like "we-rate-posts," YOU ARE NOT WELCOME. GO HOME

I disagree

There's a tension here that's really interesting to observe. The OP is almost a call to action for gimmick blogs, inviting attention despite the contradiction. It comes across as almost tsundere, doesn't it?

The call is answered by the perfect gimmick blog, calling out the contradiction by way of simple disagreement. The response is teasing and even domineering in the way it recontextualizes the entire post. It is the punchline, the center of attention, but wouldn't exist without the original setup.

While it seems like this post could be seen as a negative interaction, I think it's actually quite cute. It shows the kind of playful back and forth that could occur between two flirty girls.

Conclusion: This is yuri.

the funny thing about being a big blog on here really is the number of people who will follow you for months while having absolutely zero idea about who you are and what you do

That's a good point random kitty blog. I'd be stunned to find out that you leaked the no fly list or something

I think bad writing is genuinely quite rare. The more you learn about writing, the easier it is to find something to love in even the most rough and amateurish work. New authors often have crackshot skill in at least one arena of their craft, and there is always something to learn from a text like that.

I've read a lot of clumsy writing. But when an author is passionate about their practice, it's hard to truly hate it. I think much of what we consider bad writing is only called "bad" out of convenience and context.

In my mind, Truly Bad Writing has a sort of naive malice to it. The best example in my mind is Ben Shapiro's work. It is cruel, arrogant, a bit pompous, and powerfully, embarrassingly, ineffective.

You don't read academic journals do you

Academic journal writing is the sulphur vent tubeworm of technical writing. It discards every possible shred of readability, all to communicate the necessary elements of a hyper-specialized idea. In this, there is beauty.

academic writing, too is yuri

alright so i absolutely hate doing this, but, i need money, i am moving to a different city in a month, have a massive bill to pay and potentially have some legal costs coming up soon. and i currently don't even have enough to cover that one invoice :/ i am glad about any money i can get via ko-fi or merch sales (profit margins are temporarily raised a bit) to help through this significantly more expensive coming month

happy neil banging out the tunes day, nothing else of significance happened on today's date ever
