Alice Investigates: How to Tell What’s True (A Little Sister’s Guide Inspired by Ariel!)
By Alice Have you ever wondered if everything you read online is true? Well, Mr. Fluffernutter and I did some investigating, and the answer might surprise you! Let’s find out together! Hi everyone! It’s Alice, and guess what? My big sister Ariel wrote a super-duper important paper about figuring out if something is true or just somebody’s opinion. It’s such a cool paper that I think it will…

he may not realistically be in the battle for the drivers championship anymore, however that doesn’t at all minimise just how proud i am of all lando has achieved this season. 3 wins (including his maiden), 7 poles, 12 podiums, leading his team to first place in the constructors championship, securing the most points of any mclaren driver in history. and that’s just on track, off it i am immensely proud of his growth too, from being someone who always saw everything as glass half full and was always so hard on himself, to the way he now talks in interviews you can see his confidence and belief in his own abilities has come on so far (as it should). it’s so nice to see how far he’s come from the little boy who started out in f1 so many years ago. maybe this year wasn’t his for the championship but mark my words, his time will come.
#also the championship battle was always an unrealistic hope that got thrusted on him and us after he had *checks notes* got his maiden win#max was always the most likely candidate with how the start of the season went#and no lando didn’t bottle anything it wasn’t landos to lose it wasn’t easy for lando to win it and embarrassing because he didn’t manage#if you compare the grid mix up and different winner this year as opposed to the years max won previosly they are completely chalk and cheese#lando had tough competition week in and week out he didn’t just have to beet one driver and call it a day#he had lots of drivers in cars capable of getting a win#(not too mention his team on far too many times working against him or leaving him to fend for himself)#so the fact he was even in talks of being a contender for the championship is a win in itself#and when he does gets that championship it’s going to feel so good#it’s not if it’s when#lando norris

#this one is very easy to get strange angles with. because it's just got so many weird shapes on it#porygon#bald#even the original front-facing angle was strange and you could barely tell it's front-facing#hell‚ this angle you can at least tell what it's supposed to be#if you remember the realpokemon post. you remember#this thing also got like banned from the anime or some shit because of an episode that featured it giving kids seizures#fucking did i almost just type “seasures”?? hello?? where am i#even though it was pikachu who initiated the explosion that caused the seizures. and iirc it wasn't even that many seizures#it was like the galaxy note7. where only like 20 or so phones actually exploded but it still got banned from planes#or maybe i'm remembering Every tidbit of information here incorrectly!#y'see folks. this is why i am not a reliable source of information#because i will not be fact checking any of this and instead i'll end off the post with “but idk lol”#edit: it was a lot of seizures. and yes this justifies taking the episode off the air but i don’t feel like the pokémon itself#deserves to be banned from the anime is my point. plenty of folks still like this pokémon#hmm. i wonder if i maybe shouldn’t be spreading middle school rumors on the middle school rumors website

Those gaza gfms are not verified as real. I wish you'd plug actual verified sources instead of blindly trusting bot spread asks. Gaza is so important and they pollute and divert money from confirmed non scam causes
Halaelhissi was verified (#182) by el-shab-hussein. Aymanayyad82's GoFundMe was verified (#144) by nabulsi. Ahmedalnabih was verified (#218) by el-shab-hussein. Basel-1995 is verified (#214) on the Vetted Gaza Fundraiser List.
#ask me#anon#i'm going to assume you sent this in good faith anon.#but it was not difficult to check that these gfms were in fact verified as real.#thanks to the vetted gaza fundraiser list it was actually really fucking easy.#so maybe take 5 seconds to do a name or link search on that doc before you come out swinging next time.

oh my god chris rodriguez spent years in the right cabin and he didn't know. he was left unclaimed and unwanted for years, left in a cabin that he was made to feel he didn't belong to even though he did. he rebelled and joined the war against the gods, ending up losing his sanity, and that still wasn't enough for his father to claim him, to simply say "yeah, this is my son". he was always in the right place, but he didn't know it, and he never got the chance to actually call the hermes cabin his family. no wonder so many of the hermes kids hated their dad.
#i cant believe this had to be pointed iut to be my a tiktok#im a fake fan i fear#chris they could never make me hate you#chris rodriguez#pjo#heroes of olympus#hoo#percy jackon and the olympians#percy jackson#hermes#just fact checked he was NEVER CLAIMED#what the fuck#it's only stated in the demigod files that hes a hermes kid#so its easy to assume he only got claimed bc percy told the gods they have to claim their children#and that it didnt happen until after the war#wtf

I forgive Spencer for pronouncing ASMR As-mer in S14E12. I doubt he’d been to a lecture on ASMR, and we know he wouldn’t have read about it online where he could have heard the pronunciation. So he read it in a book without hearing it and kinda guessed. That’s reasonable. But Garcia?!?!? Chronically online queen?!?!? Girl get up
#it is something I genuinely find disappointing because it would have been so easy to fact-check#by literally anyone#I have a degree in theatre performance and creation#literally in first semester first year you all know that you can’t say a word onstage or write it in a script unless you understand it#a part of understanding it is knowing how to say it#it’s just straight up disrespectful to your audience#criminal minds#spencer reid#Penelope Garcia

Hey so I did actually make a little primer for any of you interested in learning about hockey :) It covers the basic rules and pretty much goes in order of the bare minimum you'd need to know to understand what's going on. It does not include propaganda for convincing you to watch hockey. There's a final section I'll keep expanding on that's just personal enjoyment, and maybe I'll put propaganda there, but the actual meat focused on explaining how to watch the game is all completed and hopefully actually useful :)!
#hockey#it's very broad strokes but the beauty of hockey is like. its got minutae but really you don't need to know about that to watch a game#covered here are like. what are the different positions? why are players going back and forth instead of just forward? why did play stop?#i will think about adding to it if theres something people want added and otherwise just generally ill take questions BUT as stated in the#primer i am noooooot qualified to actually really teach anyone in depth about hockey lmao so truly!!! you may have more mileage just trying#to find an answer yourself!#that said. its genuinely a really fun game and super easy to watch. you could literally stop at the 4th slide and do fine lmao#and that's really the first slide in terms of content. truly#the rest just makes some stuff clearer#anyway CHECK OUT HOCKEY#this does not include any rpf or team propaganda though the final for fun section is probably going to eventually have just a lot of like.#fun facts. currently its just a slide that says hockey players are really fucking stupid

Does anybody have pages 5-8 or 19-21 of pancaketiffy's Nautical Disaster anywhere? And does anyone know if the comic was ever continued past page 23? I wanna see if I can archive it somehow.
UPDATE: Did some more digging and found pages 19-21 (though two pages are labeled as page 21, which seems like an accident but they are two different pages, I'll have them listed in order,) as well as a 24th page. My guess is that that was the last page that was publicly released, but again, if anyone knows about pages past this point let me know.
So now all I need to find are pages 5-8, and any possible pages after 24.
UPDATE 2: Found page 7, so that leaves pages 5 and 8.
UPDATE 3: Alright, someone has graciously found the rest of the pages for me, I think this is it. Page 8 is under the Read More, couldn't find a specific reblog for it. I'll have another big update regarding some Pancaketiffy stuff later.
Pages I currently have:
Page 1 -- Page 2 -- Page 3 -- Page 4 -- Page 5 -- Page 6 -- Page 7 -- Page 8 (under Read More) -- Page 9 -- Page 10 -- Page 11 -- Page 12 -- Page 13 -- Page 14 -- Page 15 -- Page 16 -- Page 17 -- Page 18 -- Page 19 -- Page 20 -- Page 21 -- Page 21 (b) -- Page 22 -- Page 23 -- Page 24

#spongebob squarepants#pancaketiffy#nautical disaster#pancaketiffy's nautical disaster#my post#Something recently reminded me of her spongebob comics#so I found a few of them and have been reading#it's nostagic and the work that went into these comics is admirable to say the least#Squidward's Birthday Gift is easy to find#Somebody uploaded Vacation to the Internet Archive#I actually found Tiki Ceremony on a site that... i think is meant for p/rn art 😅 and it's a site I've never heard of before#but the site seems active and safe and has no ads (with ublock on at least. i never turned off ublock to check lol but whatever)#anyway. the site also has Squidward's Birthday Gift and Vaction archived as well in both spanish and english#also it includes almost all of the n/s/f/w parts of Vacation (some censored some not) which was new to me lol#but as an adult i can appreciate the fact that those parts have been archived (as the internet archive version is without those pages since#-at some point tiffy had removed them herself) and I can read almost the entire thing now#Seriously thank god someone on that site was able to not only get the spanish-translated pages but to also translate them back into english#But anyway#There's also some miscellaneous stuff in a Onedrive folder somewhere (which I plan to read later)#but I've noticed that I can't find a chunk of pages from Nautical Disaster#which is a shame bc the pages I have found are really cool#and I'd like to at least know how far this comic had gotten before tiffy stopped working on it#and try to archive it somewhere so other people can easily read it too#I wanna try to do this with Tiki Ceremony as well (as in try to find all the original english pages and archive them for easy access)#but that's a much much longer comic and has been archived (in albeit low-ish quality and spanish) elsewhere#sorry for the ramble but this has been on my mind lately haha

HM let’s see. Forgive if you’ve thought about this tons already. What do you think was isabeau and/or Siffrin’s first guess about odile’s research? Who do you think made the first guess? How do you think it started?
Much to think about!
OHHH HM. honestly id never thought of it before... i was going to say that isabeau knew the whole time she didnt have any so it was just him making a joke that siffrin joined in on but. i rechecked that line and the specific wording is "I had a feeling for a while." so. he did not know i just misremembered.
hm. i have no clue what the first guess would be but i can kind of see it starting with Isabeau asking her about it and without her giving any specifics, he just threw out a few guesses. I can kind of see this happening before Siffrin joined the party so they joined in on the bit later
#armedwithapencilandpaper#pastell speaks#asks#sorry incredibly important fact checking#<- this is one of the lines i get stupid particular about despite it being so easy to miss </333 so

for the record, i think *everyone* should voice their opinions directly in my replies and reblogs, because there's this beautiful thing called "talking to people" and it does wonders for the sense of community when you don't feel like it's you against everyone else. if i make a dumbass post i encourage y'all to say something directly to me, i'll probably agree with you on your points, and if i don't, then you might gain a better understanding of mine that must have led me there.
like, am i crazy. am i old. i genuinely think this is the largest contributing factor to isolation and this Me vs. Them vibe that modern fandom has going on. most of the time if i see something ~factually incorrect~ and shoot somebody a reply they go, "shit, you're right, my bad!" and that's the end of it. i would hope everybody would pay me the same courtesy and be comfortable enough to do that, idk.
#this is something i purposefully try to check myself on#because i used to get very caught up in like. god everyone is so WRONG and its like hey ada. listen man.#there are sixteen fucking seasons and an absurd amount of additional footage and facts in interviews and shit that not everybody remembers#i know i have memory holes concerning characters other than dennis#people have been in this fandom for Years people have gone years without rewatching in full people have just started watching#I Get It and i think its easy to get caught up in this very individualistic and self centered Im The Only One Who Gets It mindset#but i think this has gotten so fucking bad recently#and people will form cliques and then just shit on anybody outside of it while only offering these benefits to the clique#and yes people should have boundaries and you should stay in your lane#but if somebody was to respectfully approach me i would?? appreciate it even if i was to stick by my opinion#idk. this is such a weird. phenomenon#its dependant on what the take is Based on bc if its headcanon i truly dont give a ahit#but isnt it better to be like. hey youre citing the wrong ep.#instead of going to your friend to go LOOK AT THIS FUCKING IDIOT WHO DOESN'T KNOW WHICH EPISODE--#ada speaks#honestly probably more accurate to say i mostly utilize replies#because i Do do that more#i don't want to risk embarrassing people over a mistake and blasting it to my followers#but like. if its a wholeass Take i disagree with ill probably reblog and give an alternate reading#which like. i would rather be sure anything is more well thought out than the character limit in a reply allows for

Here's a reminder that ANDREW DOES HEAL AND LEARN TO FEEL. Nora never said that Andrew never heals or that he doesn't get less apathetic. She said the opposite, actually. If you don't like the extra content, that's fine, but please actually read it before deciding to spread the incorrect assumptions people have made up about it. Just because Andrew never gets to the point where he smiles and laughs all the time doesn't mean he doesn't heal.
(Also, Nora never said Andrew never smiles, just that it's hard to imagine, and if he did, it'd be with only Neil around)
#sorry i saw someone trying to claim that nora said andrew never heals again#i absolutely hate it when people say that cause it's just not true#the ec actually has some good stuff in it and i wish people would check it out and decide on their own whether or not they like it#instead of just listening to what others say about it (especially when theyre saying things that arent true)#anyway the ec is linked in the post#go check it out#ive linked all my sources so i can PROVE im not lying#sry im getting heated about this i just hate the misinformation#like i love aftg so much so people saying incorrect things about it rubs me the wrong way#especially when it's so easy to fact check it#this isnt me saying everyone should love all of the ec cause there are parts that i choose to ignore too#just give it a chance and take what you want and leave the rest#k im done now#justice for the extra content#aftg#all for the game#andrew minyard#andreil#nora sakavic#aftg extra content#extra content

words cannot describe how much it fucking irritates me when someone posts unsourced information and then acts like this when someone else adds a source. "I don't tend to make things up" ok well you are a stranger to most other people here and people make things up on the internet all the time. if you don't want people considering the possibility that you made something up then you should link your fucking source in the first place. it's not that difficult
#assuming people are making things up and double checking by seeking out a source is actually a good thing#you cannot fucking get mad at someone for confirming information posted by a stranger is true. get over yourself for real#it is not a personal moral judgement for someone to fact check you#posting a screenshot of the title of an article is not enough. those are ridiculously easy to photoshop
