Crowley accidentally getting into an argument with an astrophysicist, proving all current scientific theories flawed, and providing a brand new theory with solid foundations.

It gets dubbed the devils theory, or in some places, the serpents science.

Just your daily reminders:

Racists are a problem

White people are not

Homophobes are a problem

Straight people are not

Transphobes are a problem

Cis people are not

Sexists are a problem

Men are not

And most importantly,

Hating an innocent person solely because of their race, sexuality, or gender makes you a fucking asshole

Holy shit.... Never Again Action (the group who started #JewsAgainstICE) had an ICE detention truck drive through them while they were shutting down Wayne Detention Center in Rhode Island this evening (August 14th).

So I just reblogged with this info but every fandom needs to see this

THERE IS AN EXTENSION CALLED SAVE PAGE WE

It’ll save an entire webpage, no matter how long it is. It saves all text, most photos, but no videos. I use it mainly for offline fic reading as my wifi goes out in heavy rain, but it’s useful as fuck.

All you gotta do is go to your webpage of choice, I.e a fanfiction, and click the icon. After about 10 seconds it saves the webpage to your Downloads folder with everything you see. Just like a webpage.

You shouldn’t have to worry about space, because my HTML folder is 300 MB, holding over 500 webpages. I even went to the trouble of looking at each fanfic folder individually, and for 20+ chapter fanfic, it takes up about 2MB. Every webpage I glanced at was about 500KB, more if I haved it from Tumblr and had a bunch of pictures saved on accident.

So yeah. This exists. Putting this out there for all the paranoid readers who are scared of waking up and finding their favorite fics are gone.

Round-up: A Lot of CSI-Style Forensics Have Turned Out to be Bogus

Basically a lot of it is pseudoscience that was never rigorously tested in controlled situations to see if it actually worked.

This is because it was not developed by scientists, but by police, and mainly with an interest in putting people in prison rather than uncovering the truth.

At least two dozen people have been falsely convicted due to “Bite Mark Analysis”. 

“Burn pattern analysis” put an innocent man to death in Texas

“Blood Spatter analysis” such as that shown on the TV show Dexter is actually completely unreliable even according to the US Department of Justice

Forensic hair comparison is also widely believed to be junk science and the FBI is currently reviewing convictions based on hair analysis due to the unreliability of their results

Handwriting analysis has an unreasonably high error rate, by some accounts as high as 43%

Lie detector tests, or polygraphs, are notoriously unreliable and based on bad science. Even though everybody knows this, they are still constantly being used in criminal investigations among other places.

Toxicology labs can be poorly supervised and badly run, producing false and even fraudulent results

Due to sloppy procedure at many labs and lack of regulation even DNA testing is often unreliable

Even when correct results are produced, genetic profiles may be less useful than we have been lead to believe

Fingerprinting analysis is not foolproof and actually has not been thoroughly tested, as this Frontline special discusses

Here are a few more articles on how unreliable modern forensics are.

Unfortunately due to TV shows that stress forensic investigation, juries are demanding this kind of evidence at trial, and have little idea of how untested and unreliable it really is.

One can’t decide whether to join the Bard’s College or the Thieves Guild.

One will just have to weigh the prose and the cons.

I think more people need to add /s and /j into their online vocabulary and this isnt a joke whatsoever

/j stands for /joke and if u put it at the end of ur sentence that means ur joking

/s stands for /sarcasm and if u put it at the end of ur sentence that means ur being sarcastic

a lotta autistic people (and other neurodivergent ppl tbh) have trouble reading tones in peoples sentences so if you add /j or /s it doesnt like... distract from the sentence but it makes it clear that youre joking/being sarcastic, so people who wouldnt have necessarily read the correct tone will now know what tone its supposed to be conveying

Anyways. Use /s and /j
