Hey. Look at me. Please leave yourself a note somewhere you'll see it later that says "it is going to take years if not decades to get the United States government to the level of functionality it had in November of 2024." If we elect a democrat in 2028, we are not going to be up and running by 2032.

Please make sure you have a reminder in your phone reminding you to not look at 2028/32/36 Democratic candidates and say "why are they not promising/delivering Cool Shit?" because you are going to understand that to get Cool Shit we must have competent people running a decently funded government, and we are not going to have that.

We are not getting UBI. We are not getting single payer healthcare. We are not getting free college or free preschool. We are not redistributing wealth on a large scale. We are not getting free internet. We are not getting ranked choice voting.

If we are lucky, we are going to get an IRS that can collect taxes, qualified schoolteachers, research grants, Social Security, and a government that thinks maybe it should be a priority for people around the worlds to not have AIDS, malaria or TB.

I have a Welcome to the Table fan server! There's channels for conversations, fanfiction and fanart, headcanons discussions, and more!

This server is exclusively 18+ as a warning!

a feel like the new generation of fanfic readers NEED to understand that clicking on a fic (interaction) does nothing. ao3 has no algorithm. your private discord discussions of fic do not reach the authors. if you do not actively engage with writers they will stop posting. this isn’t social media this is community.

I'm so glad to see AO3 making it absolutely clear that none of these things are allowed to even be HINTED at.

Here's some of the language from the new post about AO3's police on commercial promotion:

-

There is a wide variety of things that are not allowed under AO3's non-commercialization rules.

Any other language which one might interpret as requesting or having requested financial contributions, whether for yourself or others. This covers indirect references, euphemisms, or other language intended to get around the TOS. Some examples of this include:

Thanks for the coffee!

If I were to make a Sanders Sides group roleplay, would anyone be interested? It'd be 18+, simply bc I don't write with minors

ideal living situation is what i call the 'sitcom special' : having all your closest friends live in the same apartment building or neighborhood where you each have your own space but can wander in and out of eachothers homes at will, seemingly always welcome and never at bad times. and also all of you only have jobs when its important to the plot.

Massachusetts celebrating the 4th of July on December 16th instead one year. It's the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party. He gets some tea bags and throws them at other states during meetings all day.

He does it more than once to Virginia and Gov both. Virginia to try to get a reaction, and Gov just because "he deserves it".

Virginia starts to throw them back at Mass.

Not long post-Accepting Anxiety, Roman notices how protective Virgil gets of him, Logan, and Patton. So he decides to get Virgil and teach him actual self-defense and fighting techniques.

It's one of the first things they do together that's semi-civil, though at first Virgil just enjoys having permission to fight Roman.
