PIRATE SAFELY!! But pirate ;)
Hello! I’ve gotten a flood of new followers thanks to an addition I made about NOT torrenting from the Pirate Bay, so I want to address it better.
If you’ve come to check my blog for more piracy resources, advice, guides, etc, then check out some of the links in this pinned!
First and Foremost, Do not do Anything without an adblocker. Ublock Origin is the best.
Resources/Wikis: 🌟Top recommendation is the Free Media Heck Yeah Wiki, frequently updated, maintained, and transparent, as well as has a welcoming community behind it if you have questions. The rest are for redundancy's sake and for anything not found in FMHY, though most Wikis on this topic tend to repeat the same info. 🌟
VPN Comparison Chart - General Rule of Thumb, DO NOT use any VPN recommended by Youtubers, influencers, or any other shill with a profit motive. Large marketing budget does not equal good privacy practices. Do your own research.
-Since both Mullvad VPN and IVPN are planned to now suspend port forwarding support, the next best choices for torrenting though a VPN seem to be AirVPN and ProtonVPN.
HOWEVER, AirVPN has no evidence of a no logging policy (aka there’s a chance they keep records of what you do on their service) and ProtonVPN has no method of anonymously signing up and use a subscription model instead of a preferable pay-as-you-go model. So take that as you will.
(NOTE: You do not need to pay for a VPN if you are only directly downloading from a server or streaming off of websites! But it’s probably a good idea for privacy reasons anyways.)
A very good Comprehensive Torrenting Guide! -eye strain warning
And another one!
-If you torrent you need a VPN depending on how strict your government is on copyright laws. This works on a case by case basis, so I recommend looking up your own country's laws on the matter. Generally speaking, use a VPN to torrent if your country falls under The 14 Eyes Surveillance Alliance. More info on what that is Here.
A Note about Antivirus: - If you're using trusted websites, and not clicking on any ad links/fake download ads (Should be blocked by ublock), then you don't necessarily need any antivirus. Common Sense and Windows Defender should be enough to get you by. If you would like to be certain on what you are downloading is legitimate, then run your file through a virus scanner like VirusTotal. Keep in mind that when scanning cracked software some scans may flag “false positives” as the injectors used to crack the software look like malware to these scanners. Once again, the best way to avoid malware is to use trusted sites listed here and use an adblocker at all times.
If you have any questions on anything posted, need help finding things, or just need some clarification on any terms used, shoot me an ask or message! I've got a few years experience with not paying for anything I want, and LOVE to help others with this kind of stuff. But if you don't trust me, since I am a random stranger on the internet, that's fine (I wont be offended promise)! Do your own research!
INFORMATION SHOULD BE FREE!

Lift Me Away - Roku x Reader - Chapter 3
You find yourself trembling, not knowing what struck you. The man’s arms envelop you gently, knowing his strength, his presence otherworldly. He feels too perfect to be human—and yet he’s warm and he exhausts, the way he’s exhausted protecting you. He tilts you upright, careful of your weak knees, and looks you in the eye.

I usually don’t like to delve into drama, but I can’t stay silent any longer. Mod Hebi of @fuckyeahmugiwaras is an EXTREMELY predatory individual. I will not be disclosing any of my sources, for my safety and theirs, as she has an irl documented history of hostility towards her critics.
To start, Mod Hebi is inappropriately fond of Straw Hat Luffy (who she met irl when she was in her 30s and he was 17). I’ve been told she’s tried to flirt with him on several occasions, given him large gifts, and tried to guilt him into choosing time with her over his female crewmates.
Literally kicks kittens??? I shit you not they say they’ve seen her straight up BARRELING kittens across the floor.

do you have any basic pointers for writers who might want to try out doing a serialised story online but have no idea where to start?
I'm hesitant to give too much general advice because every situation is specific - what you should do depends on what you're writing, your goals with your book, and where you're at with regards to community, connections, and followers. There isn't a lot of one-size-fits-all advice I can give that isn't me making up scenarios and speculating about them. That being said I can point you towards a couple platforms.
I serialize my novels via a newsletter hosted on Substack, though I have VERY mixed feelings about Substack as a platform. I am a fan of newsletters in general though. They have some significant benefits - for instance you can download and keep your subscriber list, so you don't have the problem of being trapped on any individual platform. They're free below certain subscriber thresholds, however most services do cost money once you get a large enough audience, they can be a bit involved to set up, and you have to do the heavy lifting of getting people to subscribe. Off the top of my head, newsletter hosts include: Beehiiv, Buttondown, Ghost, Substack, Mailchimp, GoDaddy, and ConvertKit, but there’s loads more out there.
I am aware of Wattpad, Ream, RoyalRoad, and Radish as serial platforms but have not explored them and cannot speak to how they work. Some of those cater to specific kinds of books. Wattpad is the biggest and most general one.
If you consider your book broadly "fannish" you can serialize it on AO3 (it's a grey area, I would read that page before deciding.)
You can also always host it on your own website and link to there from whatever social media you use. I'm less familiar with web hosts though. (Neocities is popular but you'd have to want to play with HTML. If you don't want to do that, maybe Wordpress?)
I hear a lot of people talking about feeling abandoned and ignored when making the jump from fanfiction to original writing. So, breaking my own rule immediately, (you can see I'm making an assumption here based on this being Tumblr) one piece of advice I'll give is that if you're starting from scratch BUT you're in a fandom, writing something original that still appeals to other fans is a good way of bridging the gap between fanfiction and original writing - e.g. if you're into OFMD and you write an original novel about gay pirates, you're a Good Omens fan and you write a novel about angels and demons, etc.
Oops that ended up super long. Followers let me know if there are any platforms I missed!

If you are a minor or simply not in the position to donate, strike etc, there are some things you can do to support Palestine:
- Do your daily clicks on this website which donates to Palestine. You can click every 24 hours and even set a reminder for it.
(if the link doesnt work, please inform me. The website wasnt working for me when i copy-pasted the link)
- Put posters and stickers up on the street, or even graffiti in support of Palestine (if you are afraid that doing graffiti will put you in danger you can use chalks as an alternative)
This way youre not only spreading awareness in the online space, but directly in your own environment.
- This might be obvious but spread awareness and support! You should not only share and speak about the cruelties, (which are also important to talk about, dont missunderstand me) but also share links to organizations that donate to Palestine! If you do share these, please make sure they are legitimate.
You can also directly support families as many struggling Palestinian families have gofundmes (and similar donation sites) of their own.
- Email/call your local politicians and representives to call for a ceasefire. If you know someone who has a political influence and can do something about the genocide in Palestine, you can contact them and tell them to call for a ceasefire. Although this might be uneffective, if people like them get enough calls and emails they can be pressured to act.
- Pirate music, movies, etc that were made by zionists/have zionists acting in them. By doing this you can decrease the funding israel gets and discourage the artists, actors, etc from supporting israel.
- Boycott brands that fund israel! Theres the official bds list you should follow
Tumblr media
If you are in the position to do more, theres an extended list
Tumblr media
(if any information i have said is incorrect or out of date please correct me. I will edit and update this list if necessary)

I’ve been seeing Cara being talked about recently as a good instagram/deviantart alternative and was wondering what’s your opinion and or if you have a account- Pirate anon
Hmmmm well to be honest I’m a bit indifferent? Mainly because when things like new social media platforms pop up they don’t last very long. That’s not to say Cara is bad, that we artists shouldn’t migrate there or anything but rather I just don’t know if it’ll stay relevant within the next month or so. I think of Bluesky and Threads and how they were a hot thing for a moment, but we still choose to use Twitter and Insta anyway.
I think another reason why I’m not so gun ho right off the bat is because Cara is so artist-led/driven (which isn’t a bad thing). I believe artists should have a safe space to present their work (like DA and art station once was). But at that point, Cara is just a portfolio hosting website and not really a social media platform. The thing about sites like Twitter, Insta and hell even Tumblr that makes them such powerful tools to artists is because they are online public spaces that connects them to an audience outside of the artist realm/bubble. The general public aspect might very well be how artists are able to make a living off their art. Since Cara (at the moment) seems very much an artist only space, I wouldn’t be surprised if some people aren’t joining because it wouldn’t actually help sustain their livelihood like Insta or any other platform has done for them. I can only speak for myself but almost every job I’ve gotten was because of Insta and Twitter’s ability to reach beyond online artist focused circles. And recruiters do see that stuff and take note of it. It’s so hard to build an audience for your art (especially if it’s not fanart stuff) so starting from scratch isn’t a good selling point for some artists who spent years building what they currently have. So then they end up in a shitty situation of they can’t literally afford to leave the platform for a new one.
And if Cara were to make changes to become more like Insta let’s say, then it could diminish the entire reason why the site was created in the first place (artist-led/driven). I hope it doesn’t change cause yeah artists deserve a safe space but at its best Cara could be a site industry recruiters can use to source/hire talent like Artstation. But I don’t really think it can replace Insta (or any social media platform) as much as some people might want it to.
Sorry Pirate this was a long winded way of saying I don’t have a Cara account haha. We’ll see what happens but for right now I’m kind of just watching to see if it actually sticks around.

Daily Lives of Jujutsu High Students
Time set in around 2006-2007.
This story tells the daily lives and youthful troubles of four students from a certain year at Tokyo Jujutsu High.
Various x F. Reader!
Other chapters: 01
Tumblr media
02 - Online Chatting Requires Caution
Although the curriculum at Tokyo Jujutsu High is different from other schools, it covers basic subjects such as Japanese, mathematics, science, and social studies to ensure students' comprehensive development. With the rapid development of information technology, the use of computers has also increased. In order to prevent students from becoming too disconnected from the non-sorcerer world, the school has recently added a new subject - Computer Class!
However, only a few students take this class seriously. Most students use computer class time to play games. Unfortunately, this has led to many students downloading pirated games from illegal websites, resulting in a large number of infected computers at the school. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call the computer room a den of viruses.
"Darn it!" You mutter as you stare at the blue screen of the computer. "This one got infected too!"
"Forget about playing World of Warcraft," Gojo, sitting next to you, says. "I heard there's something popular these days that everyone is playing."
You turn your head and look at Gojo curiously. "What is it?"
"It's a random chat room," Gojo explains. "You can go in and have random video chats with people from other countries."
"Really? Let's give it a try then!"
Without hesitation, Gojo types a string of English letters into the search engine, and the computer quickly loads a website with a simple design. The website's name is written in large letters in the upper left corner, and there are two button options below it.
"You can choose to use text or video," Gojo says.
"It would be too embarrassing to start with video on the first try. Let's go with text," you say.
Gojo slides the mouse and clicks on the button labeled "TEXT."
With a click on the "TEXT" button, the page turns into a chat interface. There's a message box at the top with the words "Matching now..." displayed. Within a few seconds, a new pop-up message appears saying, "Start chatting!"
Excitedly, you pat Gojo on the shoulder and exclaim, "Oh, we've got a match!"
Gojo, with a disdainful snort, says, "You're getting excited so easily. You really are an inexperienced bumpkin."
Ignoring Gojo's sarcasm, you focus your attention on the computer screen. Another message pops up in the chat interface, displaying the username of the matched person.
Florida Man:Hi
"Oi, oi!" You point at the chat box, looking at Gojo in panic. "He said hi! What should we do?!"
"Calm yourself, Just reply to him!" Gojo says dismissively.
"Um, then..."
You type a sentence on the keyboard, a versatile English phrase that you've been using from elementary school to now, guaranteed to be appropriate in any situation:
You: Hello, nice to meet you and you^_^?
The system immediately displays the message, "The other person has left the chat room."
"Damn, are you a grade schooler?!" Gojo curses.
"Well, how else should I respond?!" you retort, displeased.
"Let me handle it. You're still too inexperienced."
With that, Gojo starts a new match with another chat partner.
You: Hi^_^!
The dark urge: Hello~
The dark urge: mf?
As you and Gojo look at the newly popped-up chat box, both of you have a puzzled expression on your faces.
"What does 'mf' mean?" Gojo asks.
You ponder for a moment, then suddenly have an epiphany. "I know! It's probably short for 'male or female.'"
"Oh! You're quite smart!" Gojo compliments.
You run your hand through your hair and raise your nose, saying, "Duh."
Then you start typing on the keyboard again.
You: f
The dark urge: m34 horny?
"'Horny'? What does that mean?" This time it's your turn to ask.
"Hold on, let me get someone who's good at English." As soon as Gojo finishes speaking, he pulls Geto, who was sitting in the front row, engrossed in watching a pirated version of "Naruto," to the back of the classroom.
"What idiotic thing are you two up to again?" Geto says, while being pushed by Gojo towards the computer.
Tumblr media
"Suguru, can you help us translate this message into Japanese?" you point at the English message that both you and Gojo couldn't understand.
"You guys are really troublesome," even though Geto complains, he still looks at the text in the chat box. "Oh, this means—'Do you want to get naughty?'"
Just as Geto finishes speaking, the chat room immediately receives a barrage of messages all at once.
The dark urge: I wanna f___ u so damn hard kitten
The dark urge: i wanna lick u so hard that you start peeing uncontrollably babygurl
The dark urge:*babygirl
The dark urge: let me see ur p___
"Wait, what is he saying?" You feel a sense of shock as the messages keep coming in.
The dark urge: wanna s___ my hard disco stick?
The dark urge: horny?
The dark urge: horny?
"Oi! Is this person insane?" Gojo also appears astonished.
However, Geto remains unfazed and calmly translates every word and phrase from the stranger's messages into Japanese. "He's saying he wants to f___ you hard, then wants to lick you until you start losing control, and he wants to see your ___, and then asks you to look at his ___."
"So disgusting, so disgusting, so disgusting!" You cross your arms in front of your chest, feeling as if you've been sexually harassed by the online user. Goosebumps immediately form on your arms, and your mind feels like it's being bitten and itchy, as if by countless ants.
Gojo keeps clicking the refresh and match buttons while frowning, saying, "Next one, next one!"
Geto simply shrugged, seemingly unfazed. "You should expect to encounter weirdos like this when you play these chat matching games."
"That's not an excuse for harassing others online!" you replied without hesitation.
The next few matches were almost all starting with the phrase "Horny?" In fact, as soon as you told them you were male, they would immediately leave the chat room. It felt like a complete adult chat room, as if all the horny foreigners had gathered in one place.
After two days of browsing this website with Gojo, you both learned a lot of English words and phrases that kids your age shouldn't be learning. Your English vocabulary skyrocketed.
"Yo, yo, check it out! Satoru, wanna s___ my d___? Mine d___ is huge!" you imitated the tone of an American hip-hop artist on TV.
"Ayo, Y/n, you wanna [censored] with me? Just [censored] my [censored]," Gojo responded in the same tone.
Listening to your conversation, Geto sighed and rubbed his forehead. "Are these two the future pillars of the Jujutsu world? I'm starting to worry about the future of Jujutsu world."
"Maybe it would be better for me to go to medical school?" Ieiri muttered, unusually serious. "If the Jujutsu world collapses, I can still become a doctor."
Nanami frowned as he listened to your and Gojo's nonsense. "What on earth have these two gotten into?"
As soon as you saw your junior, Nanami, you smiled and reached out your hand to him. "Nanamin! Let's have [censored] with us!"
Tumblr media
Gojo also took off his sunglasses, revealing his blue eyes that resembled the clear sky and white clouds. He extended an inviting gesture towards Nanami and said in a slightly exaggerated accent, "Yesu, yesu, Nanami, let us [censored] your [censored]!"
For the next week, Nanami would immediately have a dark expression and run away whenever he saw you and Gojo.
After realizing that chatting about explicit content in the chat room was boring, you and Gojo came up with a new game.
"Hey, how about we wait for a chat and directly give them our English assignments?" you suggested.
"That's a good idea!" Gojo clapped his hands. "So, you do have a brain hidden under that skull of yours."
"Shut up, or I'll cut off your [Censored]." you threatened.
You thought Gojo would be scared after hearing your words, as that area is of great importance to men, almost as much as their life. However, Gojo not only wasn't scared, but he even blushed and said shyly, "Oh, if you want to see it, just say it directly, no need to be so subtle."
Your mind couldn't come up with any other words. You really weren't good at dealing with Gojo.
Instead of wasting precious time in computer class playing around with Gojo, you quickly posted the English assignment question in the chat room.
John: m 22
You: Which of the following is the correct definition of the word "ephemeral"?
A) Long-lasting
B) Temporary
C) Permanent
D) Reliable
John: B
Impressed by the swift response from the user named John, you exclaimed, "This foreigner's English is really impressive!"
"Idiot, what did you expect? He's a foreigner, of course his English is good," Gojo said.
"So let's quickly give few more questions to him!" you exclaimed excitedly, holding your English assignment in your hand.
As a result, the two of you used the chat room as a tool for completing your assignments, and the foreigner on the other side genuinely explained the questions in English.
"What should we do? He seems like a smart and handsome guy," you daydreamed, imagining a man with a handsome face, flowing golden hair, and a smooth British accent.
"Get real, Y/n," Geto's cold voice mercilessly shattered your imaginary image of the handsome man. "How could someone like that play in a random chat room?"
"No, you're totally wrong, Suguru," you immediately retorted. "Even a beauty like me is playing in this kind of random chat room."
Geto and Gojo looked at you with disdainful expressions.
"You are too full of yourself." Gojo said.
Just as you were about to say something, a new message appeared in the chat room.
John: So that's all?
You: Yeah! Thanks ;-)
John: It's not a big deal.
John: Cam?
"Cam?" Gojo paused for a moment. "Does that mean video chat?"
"Quick! I want to see what that person looks like!" you eagerly said.
"But...is it okay to—"
You interrupted Gojo's words and impatiently shouted, "Let me see my future husband already!"
Reluctantly, Gojo opened the video chat, but what appeared on the screen was the other person's genitals, and they were in an erect state.
"There you go!" Gojo frowned, pointing at the bright red and erect disco stick. "I told you, these people are abnormal! They're nothing but sex-starved beasts!"
You silently stared at the computer screen and after a while, said with a serious expression, "Seems pretty big."
"It is indeed quite big, estimated to be around 8 inches. The first time must be painful," Ieiri commented, appearing out of nowhere.
Gojo snorted disdainfully. "But it's still far inferior to mine."
"Really?" You remained skeptical and to confirm whether Gojo was really as impressive as he claimed, you looked at Geto and asked, "Suguru, is what he said true?"
Geto's face twitched. "Why are you asking me?"
"Because you and Satoru are close male friends. Don't guys usually compare each other's [censored]?" you asked, tilting your head.
"That's absolutely not true!" Geto shouted in frustration. "And where the hell did you hear about such things anyway?"
"Oi, you brats."
At that moment, a voice that didn't belong to any of the four of you spoke up.
You and the others mechanically turned your heads to see Yaga Masamichi, your homeroom teacher, standing behind you four, glaring at you four with anger.
"The computer teacher reported to me that you're often not paying attention in class, so I came to see what's going on. Turns out, you're all using the computers for these kinds of websites during class! Each of you will write a reflective essay of no less than a thousand words for me. It must be submitted by Friday, and if it's late, you'll have to add five hundred words! Understand?"
Under the absolute authority of your homeroom teacher, you four dared not rebel and could only nod obediently.
From that day on, you were haunted by the shadow of these chatting rooms. Whether it was the reflective essays that Yaga-sensei relentlessly returned or John's massive cannon, every time you thought about it, you felt like peeing yourself.
※※※
Epilogue:
Many years later, even though you had long graduated from Jujutsu High, and many of your friends had already carried away by the flowing river of time over the past decade, you, the old classmates, still kept in touch and occasionally gathered for meals.
Tonight, you all met at an izakaya as usual. The attendees included you, Gojo, Ieiri, Nanami, Ijichi, and Utahime and Mei Mei, who were several years ahead of you.
Since Gojo didn't like to drink and Ijichi had to drive, only you, Ieiri, Nanami, Utahime, and Mei Mei ordered alcohol, while the other two opted for non-alcoholic beverages.
You looked at the melon soda, french fries, and fried chicken in front of Gojo and couldn't help but mock, "Satoru, this won't do. What if your future father-in-law is a heavy drinker? You'll have to drink then, right? Practice your tolerance now and finish this bottle of vodka in one gulp!"
You raised the transparent glass bottle in your hand and placed it in front of Gojo, who then returned the bottle to you. "Instead of worrying about my future father-in-law, why don't you worry about yourself first?" he said. "Isn't your mom pressuring you? Miss still single at 27 years old."
As soon as this topic came up, you let out a groan and covered your head with both hands. "Ah, please don't mention it anymore! My mom recently forced me into a blind date!" Then you released your hands and looked at Nanami, who was sipping whiskey, with a serious expression. "Nanamin, why don't we get married?"
"No, thank you," Nanami refused without hesitation.
Tumblr media
Laughter immediately erupted from the table, with Gojo being the loudest of them all.
"Of course, Nanami mercilessly rejecting you again!" Gojo exclaimed loudly, as if afraid others wouldn't hear.
"You're not doing much better than me either! Isn't your mom pressuring you to get married? Saying it's time to continue the Gojo lineage and produce another Six Eyes successor. I heard all of this from my mom," you glared angrily at Gojo, then turned to Utahime sitting next to you and deliberately spoke in a dejected tone, "Forget about Satoru, but why are you laughing too, Utahime?"
Utahime wiped away a tear from the corner of her eye and chuckled, saying, "Sorry, sorry. No matter how many times I hear it, it's still funny."
"Sigh, go ahead and laugh. You won't be laughing when I marry some old, greasy geezer," you said.
"You don't have to be so despairing, Y/n," Mei Mei said. "Marrying an old geezer has its benefits. After all, the old geezer will die soon, and then you'll inherit his fortune."
"I think the same," Ieiri, who had already finished a large glass of beer, nodded.
"But I want someone who's handsome, whose parents died early, and who has a family fortune," you said.
Gojo laughed again. "Aren't you describing Batman?"
"Haha, very funny," you replied sarcastically.
"Let me tell you guys," Utahime said, "I actually met a cute guy on a dating app recently."
Tumblr media
"Huh? A dating app? Isn't that for sex or something?"
Upon hearing your blunt remark, Nanami and Ijichi, who were drinking at the time, both choked and coughed several times.
"But I still prefer getting to know people proactively," you said with a smile. "The connection between people is still more important, hahaha!"
Tumblr media
"Y/n is right," Gojo crossed his arms and nodded. "I also prefer genuine connections, ahahaha!"
Tumblr media
That night, as soon as you returned home, you immediately registered an account on the dating app and matched with a guy. You started chatting.
You: Hi there, I'm from Tokyo 😊😊
Infinity: Hi👋🏻 I'm also in Tokyo, what a coincidence~
You: Really? What are your interests?
Infinity: I like reading books in my free time, and I also play the violin when I have the chance.
You: Violin? That's impressive~ 🤭
You: So, what do you like to eat?
Infinity: I have a sweet tooth, I drink my bubble tea with full sugar, and I put eight cubes of sugar in my coffee. I'm also the Japan's second-best fan of buttered potatoes. I don't smoke or drink. I sleep at 11 p.m. and make sure to get less than 8 hours of sleep every day. Before bed, I always have a glass of warm milk and do 20 minutes of stretching. Once I get into bed, I immediately suffer from insomnia. I stay up all night until morning, but I never carry fatigue and stress into the next day. Doctors say I'm perfectly normal.
You: Wait a minute.
You: Horny?
Infinity: GOD DAMN
These are the conversations you and Gojo had with strangers on that chat website during your computer class:

on that piracy post everyone is saying don't use TPB but nobody is saying why?
The actual "pirate bay" has been gone for nearly a decade. Every version of it online is just a copy of the old archived website being run by entirely different people. These new people are not trustworthy and do not have your best interests at heart. The people who actually upload pirated content do not go within 100 feet of the pirate bay, and thus every torrent on that website is by nature a re-upload and susceptible to having been tampered with. Tl;dr: you're 10x more likely to get malware on the pirate bay. Not to mention every ISP under the sun is already monitoring every torrent that goes through that site (and most torrents in general these days tbh).
For legal reasons I must stress that I am not advocating for piracy, and what I'm about to say is for educational purposes and not something I am suggesting anybody do:
The people who upload pirated content these days tend to be very specific groups dedicated to it. I'm not providing any links, but simply googling "piracy reddit" will get you very far on finding up to date resources on what is safe right now. Also, re: what I said about torrents being monitored; torrents are convenient, but unless you have a good, paid VPN, your ISP will almost certainly see the download and notify you about it. What happens after that is up to your country's laws, but generally speaking it's not good to have records of illegal activity in any case. Direct downloads (ie. Not torrents, think clicking a download button in chrome and the download pops up regularly on the bottom of the screen) are not able to be monitored in this way, and tend to be more secure as long as you can verify that the download source is trustworthy and reputable. Still worth using a VPN just in case though.
Stay safe out there!

Hi, I just recently got into DOOM (and found your blog). Do you have any good recommendations for fan doom mods/maps? (they range from the most popular ones to your own personal favorites or little niche levels)
I'm going to see what i can think of because there's always good stuff that not even the Cacowards bring up.
As for mapsets or wads:
Romero's Sigil is obvious as if it should be official.
Memento Mori series
Requiem
Icarus Alien Vanguard
300 minutes of /vr/
Ancient Aliens
Anomaly Report
Alien Vendetta
Back to Saturn X series
Doom 2 Reloaded
Doom 1/2 The Way id Did
Some of the Doomer Board Projects like AUGER;ZENITH and Emerald City
Doom Zero
Doom city which is pretty good for a single map
Epic 2
Good Morning Phobos
Jenesis
Japanese Community Project
Moonblood
Munity
Plutonia 2 and Plutonia Revisited
Rebirth
Scythe 2
TNT Revilution
PhobosDeimos Anomaly
UAC Ultra
Going Down
Doom 64 for Doom 2
Consolation Prize (PS1 Doom and Doom 64 but compatible with gameplay mods)
Whispers of Satan
Note that some of them could be difficult or even have things like DEHACKED enemies or whatever can get in the way of a gameplay mod.
And speaking of gameplay mods:
High Noon Drifter
GMOTA
Combined Arms
Space Hunter
Colorfull Hell
DAKKA
Legions of Bones
Vanilla Doom Plus
Legendoom Lite
MK-Champions
Corruption Cards
TrailBlazer
Project Babel
Supercharge
Samsara
MetaDoom
Doom Delta
D4T
D4V
Final Doomer
Demon Counterstrike
Treasure Tech
Bratwurst
Netronian Chaos
Highway Acceleroid Booster
Eriguns 1/2
Psychic
Cybers Monster Randomizer
La Tailor Girl
Dusted's Pandemonia
Accessories to Murder
Cola 3
Hideous Destructor
Lt Typhon
And for TC stuff
Golden Souls series
Beyong Reality
Strange Aeons
Skulldash
The Edge of Time
REKKR
Reelism 1/2
Adventures of Square
Pirate Doom
StrongHold: Edge of Chaos
Project Uber
Winter's Fury
There's probably still examples i'm missing, so this is what i thought of.
A good way to look for more is see info of people involved like if they have Doomwiki articles or accounts on other websites and see what else they did.
And because this list is already big, you don't have to look most of them right way so feel free to use your time and interest with how you look at them.
Because some of this stuff can be difficult for newcomers like certain wads and mods.
There's also what versions of GZDoom or ZDoom a certain mod could use since some mods might be discontinued while GZDoom gets new updates.

SHATTERED IN SECONDS
"It was like when you make a move in chess and just as you take your finger off the piece, you see the mistake you've made, and there's this panic because you don't know yet the scale of disaster you've left yourself open to."
- Kazuo Ishiguro
Tumblr media
CATEGORY 5 HURRICANE SELMA CONTINUES TO THREATEN BAJA CALIFORNIA AND CALIFORNIA COASTS WITH HIGH STORM SURGE…
On the surface, this storm didn’t seem like a big threat. You’d just have to stay close to shore, so as to not get swept away.
Easy, wasn’t it?
Well yes, but we’re not talking about the surface.
We’re talking about the OCTOPOD. What else would it have been?
Oh right. There was also outside the Octopod. The sea.
A few hours had passed now. The winds were starting to pick up now, as Selma’s outer bands rolled in.
From the HQ, Kwazii kept watching as day gradually turned to night. To him, it looked fantastic. The darkening of the sea’s colors, while painting everything into dullness, was still majestic in a way.
"Avast, if Dashi wasn’t sleeping this out, she’d get some fantastic shots." The cat smiled at Shellington, whipping out his pathetically old BlackBerry Bold 9900. "But at least I’ve gotten this old thing from who knows where!"
Only recently had the sea otter noticed Kwazii’s liking for 2000s technology like this. The other day, when he walked into the cat’s room, he noticed a PlayStation 2 on his dresser.
It was an interesting quirk. Maybe the term "piracy", as in downloading episodes of Velma from a sketchy website full of steamed hams in your area brought Kwazii back to his pirate days. And from there he discovered how cool the 2000s really were.
He was a little confused, but he got the spirit. So, yay for him.
"Shellington? Kwazii? If I were y’all, I’d get away from the windows. Y’know it’s only gonna get worse." Tweak spoke up from behind them. "There’s gotta be some debris coming from somewhere… Rocks and the like!"
"Nyaw, it’s not like it’s gotten anywhere yet! We’ve got time!" The cat laughed it off. "After all, we just gotta wait!"
The bunny facepalmed. She knew he couldn’t risk it forever. Especially not in the wake of a hurricane. A CATEGORY 5 hurricane.
But, of course, Kwazii couldn’t listen. And neither could Shellington. They were just too… disconnected, if anything.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, Barnacles made an announcement.
"Octonauts, I advise that all of you stay inside the main area of the Octopod for the rest of tonight. Remember that we are going through an extremely violent hurricane, and it’s moving fast. Should anything happen, we should stick together."
Kwazii stopped smiling.
Shellington stopped smiling, too.
The true scale of what was yet to come, finally came into full view. And it was not good at all.
"Jumping jellyfish. I almost forgot… again." The sea otter was now wide awake, which was rare to see as he tended to be a sleepyhead. But now here he was, in horrific realization.
And not just that, but he knew Dashi was deep asleep in her room. Yet, he couldn’t speak up. Not yet.
Barnacles didn’t know either.
But Kwazii did.
"Captain, I think we’re missing someone… HEY! Any of ye seen-"
And just when you thought things were shit, they were about to become the diarrhea you got after eating one too many breadsticks from the school cafeteria.
The Octopod slowly rumbled, as Selma’s winds picked up once again. For a few seconds, it calmly get steadily rocked back and fourth. Again and again.
"…jumping jellyfish. I gotta go." Shellington rushed to his lab. Kwazii went down his trail, deep into his refuge.
~~~~
Shellington walked around his lab, and he was starting to panic.
"What do we do? What do we do? What… do we do? The Octopod is shaking, the hurricane is already here, and Dashi isn’t in the main area." He kept talking to himself, before bumping into Kwazii.
"C’mon, now! I clearly helped Captain anchor the Octopod! We can’t be that plundered!" He tried to comfort the sea otter. But it wasn’t any use.
"Kwazii, you and I need to get to the launch bay RIGHT NOW. I might have an idea of why things aren’t going well."
A few minutes later, the two had snuck past Tweak, and were tethered to the Octopod by an old iPhone charging cable. Selma kept throwing the currents around and around, and it was becoming increasingly hard to swim.
Fortunately, Kwazii easily noticed what was wrong with the Octopod.
"Nothing?!"
"Fascinating! There’s no marks at all!"
The two shook their heads. Clearly something was playing with them. A sea creature? Most likely. But that couldn’t be. Not in a hurricane!
"…avast! Your free antivirus, this isn’t right!" The cat and otter swam back inside, in panic. The cause was obvious, but the anchor had been set about 3 hours ago! And during that time, clearly many fish were finding shelter…
The anchor simply came loose. Which it had never done before.
It was a sign.
A sign that their time was almost up.
"Kwazii?! Shellington?! What were you two doin’ out there?!" Tweak immediately noticed them, dripping water. "Y'all could’ve gotten real hurt!"
"That’s for Peso to figure out. Me and Kwazii had to find out why the Octopod was shaking. And there’s no marks on the anchor… Meaning that what’s merely happening is that…" Shellington stopped, and immediately turned to Kwazii. "It’s loose."
He went went empty for a moment. "But Shellington, I didn’t do it! I was just guiding the captain and…"
The otter tightly hugged him, shaking his head. "I never said you did it. You were only trying to help… What I’m saying is… Your captain is at fault."
Tweak gasped. "Oh me, oh my, oh WHAT THE HECK?! So… Cap failed to anchor the Octopod deep enough? You’re tellin’ me he left us for dead?!"
"I mean… I DON’T KNOW!" Shellington screamed. "I might just be losing my mind! What I’m more concerned is… how much time do we have left until the anchor is loose enough to completely free the Octopod from the ground?"
The bunny just looked at the otter, horrified as he was. And the answer? Just as obvious.
"Faster than you can say 'WE'RE FUCKED FOR REAL!' WE HAVE TO GET HIS ATTENTION!" Tweak ran upstairs in a panic, something she had never really done before, until now.
By sheer coincidence, she crashed head-on into Barnacles, and it hurt like hell. But her fears numbed out her pain, as she fell back down the stairs. The captain ran for her, trying to catch.
In the end, it ended up in a two-Octonaut stampede. Two likely injuries. But those didn’t matter, when Tweak knew she was about to die in absolute panic from potential disaster.
She wished she didn’t have to say the same about the others. And while she was disappointed in Barnacles, she was just as sorry for him. To know you were in extreme danger during a hurricane, was to be a nightmare. And that? The bunny understood.
It was his fault, and at the same time, it wasn’t.
"Cap…! I’m sorry! I’m so, so sorry… I should’ve been more careful…" Tweak was tearing up. "I just wanted to tell you the bad news… before it’s too late…" she covered her eyes in regret.
"Bad news? Then there’s not a time to waste. Tell me."
Tweak wanted to throw up. The whole thought of this was getting to her HARD. But she had to say something.
"The anchor is loose. It’s not functioning as it should. Cap, you know what this means? You know what this FUCKING MEANS?!" Tweak angrily grabbed the captain by the ears.
"Tweak, let go- Wait… the anchor? Loose? Not functioning as it should? You’re telling me…"
Shellington and Kwazii were gone, and Barnacles only caught sight of Tweak’s leg, as she ran upstairs.
That was the code to make a run for it.
~~~~
Barnacles ran as fast as he could to the HQ, and almost IMMEDIATELY did he SMASH his fist into the Octo-Alert. So hard, that it became louder and higher-pitched than before… and there was no way anyone could ignore.
"OCTONAUTS, TO THE HQ, RIGHT NOW! THIS IS A LIFE-OR-DEATH SITUATION, AND I NEED ALL OF US TO ACT FAST FOR OUR SURVIVAL! WASTE NO TIME OR WE WILL MOST-CERTAINLY DIE."
That was the scariest announcement Barnacles would ever say. And sadder, was that it could be his last.
Almost immediately, Peso ran through the HQ. But he didn’t stop. In fact, he was running for downstairs. He was looking for some certain patients.
"Flappity flippers! They can’t be gone like that! They have to be somewhere!" He was the most anxious he’d have been since 2010, and had his headphones on full volume. He couldn’t hear his own screams either, because all he could hear was Jvne’s hardest album ever. Its title, he screamed to himself.
"STARVING SLVTS… ALWAYS GET THEIR FIX!"
Sorry, what’s that?
Vicki? What about… Oh.
What, have we forgotten Inkling?
"No… I haven’t…" he sighed, looking at Tunip. The Vegimals had all rushed for his library, looking for Shellington as usual. "I would advise you stay with me… Oh, my, The Octo-Alarm is going off and I don’t like the sound of it…!"
He rolled up in his chair, confused about the sound. It never sounded this urgent, but now? It was nightmare fuel.
~~~~
Shellington had never cried so hard before, and now he kept raging in his laboratory, and all that Kwazii could do was watch.
"LOOK AT THIS! I COULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING! SOMETHING TO SAVE US ALL! AND YET? I DIDN’T, KWAZII! I DIDN’T!!!" He kept shouting, clutching his face in front of the cat.
"I FAILED YOU! I… FAILED YOU!"
Kwazii was trying to get him to stop crying, but it wasn’t any use. The only thing in life Kwazii feared was spiders, and now Shellington bawling his eyes out.
Not that he hatefully feared it. If anything, it was something he wished to never witness. The otter he spent so much time with. Inches away from heart failure, if anything.
"Nyaw… Who am I to leave him here?… I have to go to the HQ… But Shellington is screaming, and crying… Avast, I can’t go up there. I have to do something!"
The ex-pirate looked at the scientific otter, and knew that, with all that was happening, comfort him.
But this was impossible. With Barnacles’ making these announcements over the Octo-Alarm, his warm hugs were nothing.
"JUST MINUTES AGO, I WAS MADE AWARE OF GRIM NEWS. THE ANCHOR HAS FAILED TO CHAIN THE OCTOPOD, AND IS YET TO COME OFF AT ANY MOMENT. THE OCTOPOD IS STARTING TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY, AND HAS A VERY HIGH CHANCE TO CRASH WITH A VIOLENT IMPACT. WITH THAT, WE CAN ONLY DO ONE THING FOR AN ATTEMPT OF SURVIVAL."
Kwazii could feel himself going more and more deaf, as the screams of Barnacles and Shellington echoed around him, exceeding what he felt was over 175 decibels. Enough to kill him… if this crash didn’t.
"BRACE FOR IMPACT!" Barnacles shouted so loudly, like he was angry at everyone. Like an actual polar bear…
Kwazii had enough of him. All he wanted to do was just hug Shellington. If this was gonna keep on going, the last thing he’d do… was rebel. And so, he did.
"Captain…. SHUT UP!" He shouted back, possibly rupturing a lung. But those didn’t matter anymore. "GET OFF MY BACK AND YE BUZZ RIGHT OFF, UNDERSTOOD?!"
Not that he heard that. But the cat wanted to scream at him.
The cat tightly hugged the otter, trying to talk to him. To know he was not alone. To know he was NEVER alone. He dragged him into his bed, head on the front end.
Kwazii’s idea was to seek shelter inside here. To stay upstairs was too dangerous. And he knew others were likely listening to Barnacles.
If anything, he was hoping Dashi was still asleep.
~~~~
"Listen to me.. Inkling.. I can’t find them anywhere. They’re missing, and I can’t be bothered anymore…" Peso cried in a raspy voice. "I bet you are just as hurt as I am, but please… Save the Vegimals. Get them out of here… and save yourself."
The squid smiled at the penguin, noticing how pale his eyes were. "Goodness me, you look very ill yourself… I promise I’ll look after them."
Peso felt as if he could collapse at any moment, but he still managed to shake his flipper with Inkling. "I’m sorry… I didn’t act faster… I'm gonna miss you…"
"Good luck out there," Inkling nodded. "You're in for one wild ride." Suddenly, the Octopod violently shook, throwing Peso to the ceiling and knocking him out instantly, but not killing him, thankfully. The impact had also caused many books to fly around, some crashing into the window, which left it cracked.
"My books! Peso! Just… what a tragedy! We HAVE to evacuate… Tunip, are you ready?" He looked at the broken window, knowing it was a perfect escape.
"Cheepa… wala… Shellybo." The Vegimal looked back from the door, knowing that otter was still in there.
"…I promise we'll find him once the sand settles. I guarantee that everything has a chance." Inkling held him by one tentacle, and watched as the glass, stressed by the harsh movements of the Octopod, as it continued to glide through the sea’s insane currents, cracked one more time.
And like that, it shattered into thousands of pieces, all which made way for GALLONS upon GALLONS of sea water.
Inkling took one final look at Peso's body, knowing there was no time left. He had to go, go, go.
The other Vegimals followed him, as he charged towards the escape, knowing he was leaving behind everything. Him, Inkling, being the founder… now leaving it all as it went to waste.
At first, the Octonauts were merely a collection of simulations that Inkling had worked on with two humans in LA and Vancouver. Michael and Vicki. To each one another, it didn’t feel like a whole lot, but it was the greatest thing they’d have ever done. None of them knew the impact those simulations from 2006 had. At the time, it was all just for fun.
They decided to cherish it with the other stuff they’d have been doing at the time. All under the studio’s name.
Meomi. A little creative studio dedicated to play, delight and good-liness.
That was how it started.
And now, it was a whole new world that he had made with those two humans. None of them really knew how big this whole thing would become, until it became clear, that it was more than that little… creative… studio.
2010. The Octonauts were real.
And now, they weren’t.
As the squid swam out, hauling the Vegimals, he knew what was going to be left from this.
A lost legacy, eternal regret, and an angry call at 4AM from Vicki.
All because of a broken anchor.
It continued to shred away in the currents. Panel by panel, piece by piece.
The Octopod was slowly falling apart.
But at least Barnacles stopped shouting. At least not on the intercom.
"…S-Shellington?" Kwazii whispered to the otter, both trapped inside his folded-up bed. "Are ye okay now?"
Sea otter couldn’t see for a moment, but then realized what had happened. "Kwazii, is that you? Hi. Why are the lights turned off?"
"Just wanted to help you sleep. I know you’re awake now, so I figured we’d… talk."
Neither really knew what they were referring to. They were just in this… coffin, unaware of their impending doom.
"…Of course. I should have thought about that. What’s on your mind, Kwazii?" Shellington awkwardly giggled. "You seem pretty bored."
For a moment, the cat was thinking. Now, when you’re inside a folded up (Michael) Murphy bed, you think you’re in danger. But not here. If anything, the two were simply enjoying each other’s company.
"Well… I do wanna confess something." Kwazii giggled back. "Ye approve~?"
Shellington let out an "mhmm", which made the cat blush a little.
"Good, matey. Now, I’m pretty sure ye know that we’ve been spending more time than usual lately. And honestly, I myself don’t really know why… But, Shellington, the thing is… and I’m being more genuine than a PlayStation 5 from a shady arcade, and I’ve wanted to say this for months now…
"Go on," said Shellington. "What's up?" He was becoming more intrigued, and Kwazii knew it was truly time to tell him.
"I always did love you. For REAL."
Shellington blushed heavily from those 5 words. With all the time he had spend with the cat, he knew he felt the same way. He went for it as well, smiling bright.
"…I love you too, Kwazii."
But right after that, came a massive…
BANG!
…and everything went darker than ever.
Dashi was still asleep.
Tweak ducked in the launch bay.
Peso, unconscious, was thrown out of the window.
Shellington was hiding in his bed.
Kwazii was with him.
But none of those sounded as terrifying as what Captain Barnacles Bear suffered through.
He was still in the HQ. Where all the glass was.
The Octopod fell flat on its front.
All the glass was smashed, and shards of it were sent flying towards him at an insanely fast speed. And all that Barnacles could do was block his face.
But now, it was too late.
Too late to cry.
Too late to brace.
Too late to scream.
Everything, even hopes and dreams, was shattered in seconds.

So JoCat (An artist/ cartoon creator) got bullied off the internet. And I am going to be do a bit of an indepth look for it.
So recently JoCat did a letter on his former website, where he is going on a hiatus from the hate.
One video out of several bangers got a bit of criticism:
No my take on this? It's okay. Kind of weird for some odd reason and low on energy over the topic. Nothing I would complain over.
But it seems he got some hate from it.
...a year later, it seemed to have reached outside its target audience and ever since then I have seen and received many assumptions about my character, my history, my beliefs, my relationships, and all those of my partner, as well as threats of violence to me as well as my family, doxxing attempts, and mocking from even people I look up to and respect. All from a single 30 second video, out of 200 other ones.
So Jo's harassment from unknown doxxers were reaching a tipping point for him. Though despite his exit off stage, we aren't sure the amount or examples of this abuse. So we are left to speculate, which is never good.
Granted, a lot of this has been primarily on twitter, where I could simply log off and ignore the haters, but no small amount has leaked into other parts of my regular day to day that is harder to ignore - private DMs over discord and twitch, suspicious packages being sent to my family - but....
So hie mentions suspicious packages but no context as to what it was. This is even more vague and could be anything, I wish this guy to could honestly be upfront about this.
I’ve always kept quiet about it because speaking out about it publicly, defending myself, any reaction to it would just encourage more, and be presented as my own fault as well. But if that’s the tradeoff to do something like share the things I make that I’m proud of on the internet, seeing as I’m writing this, it’s probably an indicator that I’m just not cut out for it,
I think with this part it really shows how a guy with 1.14 Million followers handles communication online, unfiltered. This is what I feel is the biggest uwhere JoCat failed. He essentially didn't have have any system in handling of filtering out anything tossed at him on the net. I can think of a few things like a Social Media manager or essentially a public and private accounts to handle these sort of things.
Thor from Pirate Software pretty much sums my feeling on this.
Set your boundaries with the internet, or the internet will set them for you.

Top 10 Best Torrent9 Alternatives in 2024
Tumblr media
Many searches for the finest Torrent9 substitutes as Torrent9 is not always available. Government crackdowns on piracy mean Torrent9 can also be restricted in your area. The good news is that, with dedicated fans, some Torrent9 mirrors still function, assuming you know how to access them. Still, several P2P services are excellent substitutes for Torrent9. Our article tests and compiles various torrenting sites, so you're spared having to do so. Still, a virtual private network (VPN) offers a simple fix if your location prevents you from accessing Torrent9 or some of its equivalents. No matter where you live, a safe VPN will mask your IP and virtual location so you may access any torrenting site you like. Moreover, VPN services like NordVPN will encrypt your data and offer online threat security measures to prevent hostile software from ever reaching your device while surfing Torrent9 or other torrent sites. Top 10 Alternatives Of Torrent9 Cpasbien Approximately 30 million monthly users Strong download speeds (3-4 Mbps) Offers movie torrents, TV shows, music, ebooks, and games It doesn’t support magnet links Blocked in many major regions Considered the greatest substitute for Torrent9, Cpasbien is a top French torrent website. It draws about thirty million users monthly and boasts dependable download rates of 3-4 Mbps. Thanks to its sizable and active community, the site provides constantly updated access to a vast library of films, TV series, music, ebooks, and games. Even non-French speakers find navigating simple. But Cpasbien opposes magnet links; hence, users must download torrents by hand. Regretfully, the site is blocked in many countries, including India and the UK. However, with a VPN like NordVPN, Cpasbien can be accessed. YggTorrent Around 2.5 million active users Smaller community, but fast downloads (~2.5 Mbps) Registration is required, but using the site is free Extensive filtering options make navigation simple Blocked by French ISPs Popular French torrent website YggTorrent attracts novice as well as seasoned users. Having over 2.5 million members, it offers a good range of torrents and download speeds of around 2.5 Mbps. To access the material, one must register; the process is free and short. YggTorrent distinguishes itself with solid filtering features that enable users to rapidly find torrents by name, file type, or description. Unfortunately, French ISPs regularly ban YggTorrent; overcoming these limitations could call for a VPN like NordVPN. Gk Torrent Content organized by release date Smaller community than Cpasbien Decent download speeds (~3 Mbps) Healthy files that don’t stutter and fail to download Lots of options for filtering The library is regularly updated with new releases Another reliable Torrent9 substitute suitable for French-speaking users is GkTorrent. GkTorrent provides good torrents with consistent download rates averaging 3 Mbps. However, its user base is less than that of Cpasbien. The platform makes it easy for consumers to locate fresh releases by grouping material by release date.

Instead of dealing with annoying adverts, users may help the site with Bitcoin donations. YTS A unique venue for fresh YIFY announcements About 75 million monthly users are active now. Many HD-quality films are on offer. About three to four Mbps download rates Sadly, many commercials YTS is the most excellent Torrent9 alternative if you are searching for HD-quality movies. The portal attracts roughly 75 million users monthly, specializing in YIFY releases. Download rates fall between 3-4 Mbps, and the library is loaded with HD movies painstakingly compressed without compromising quality.

Lime Torrents Twenty million or more active users every month. Perfect for just-released movie material. Download rates between three and four Mbps. Displays pop-up advertising. Blocked in the US, UK, Australia, and India. With around 20 million monthly users, LimeTorrents is a fantastic source for discovering new releases. Especially for fresh content, it offers decent download rates of 3-4 Mbps. Although the service is ideal for locating recently published movie torrents, older files often lose seeders with time. Although LimeTorrents is prohibited in the US, UK, and certain other areas, a VPN like NordVPN allows one to get over these limits. Users will have to cope with regular pop-up adverts, so that an ad blocker will be essential. Torrentz2 Ten to twenty million guests every month. Indexes pouring from ninety separate torrent sources Large song library to peruse Absence of filters to negotiate content Torrentz2 is a great Torrent9 substitute for music lovers. The service searches torrents from 90 torrent sites and gets between 10 and 20 million monthly visits. Torrentz2 shines in offering a large selection of music torrents, but it lacks sophisticated filters, which makes navigating other kinds of digital files more difficult. Download speeds vary depending on the provider. However, music lovers will find this service very helpful. E-ZTV The perfect source for the newest TV series. Average two to three Mbps download rates Ad-supported, but you can register to stop them. Stopped in Italy and the UK. Most agree that EZTV is the most excellent torrent site for TV series. With 2–3 Mbps download rates, the site regularly provides the newest episodes of famous TV shows. Although advertising supports the site, users can register to avoid them. Though its UI seems antiquated, EZTV is still a first choice for TV show buffs. However, a VPN like NordVPN will guarantee continuous access, as it is prohibited in nations like the UK and Italy. Conclusion In conclusion, Torrent9 may often be inaccessible due to government crackdowns on piracy, but numerous excellent alternatives offer reliable and diverse content. Each substitute has strengths, from fast download speeds and a wide range of media options to user-friendly interfaces and frequent updates. However, geo-restrictions may block access to some of these sites, making it necessary to use a VPN like NordVPN to bypass such blocks and ensure secure, unrestricted torrenting.

Fat Guy Stuck in Internet #7: “Belly of the Skrales” | July 28, 2008 - 12:15AM | S01E07
Hey! Time for another interminable episode of Fat Guy Stuck in Internet. It’s tough for me to pin down exactly what makes this show work because, well, it usually doesn’t. It operates on the same shaky ground that Saul of the Mole Men operates on, which is that (supposedly) smart, (supposedly) funny people are making something dumb and crappy even though they know better. Sometimes things like that can be fun, and that fun can be infectious enough to give people a good time watching it. I don’t really have a good time with this show, I’m sorry to say. 
This one is a pirate ship one. They get picked up by a Pirate ship guy played by Brett Gelman, beginning his illustrious and sure-to-be long-running career on Adult Swim, one that will go on indefinitely without any kind of public statement. Brett Gelman was in a couple other episodes of the show, at least according to IMDB whose episode pages for this are all fucked up. I forget if I didn't notice him (I think he was just a voice in one of them) or if I simply didn't make note of it.
Brett Gelman is a massively talented guy and I feel his talent shines through with this performance, even though it’s intentionally goofy. He plays the captain of a ship, I guess not REALLY a pirate ship? He’s more of an admiral or something. Whatever Captain Crunch is, I guess he’s that. 
Captain Crunch is a Captain, you fucking moron. Anyway, Boat Shipman is in love with a big squid, and he expresses this by shooting chocolates and flowers at it with a cannon. I think they get swallowed by it, or possibly they drive a boat up into its ass. He has a little clam companion (clampanion) who talks like a parrot, and hijacks the boat to do this, because he’s also in love with the squid. I’ll be honest, I stopped paying attention so good, because I didn’t feel like it. I think their adventure ends with Boat Shipman hugging and kissing and tugging on the squid’s prostate. I think. I literally don’t know. 
Boat Shipman is my very funny name for Brett Gelman in this episode. Is that already from something? Like, it just sounds like something that would’ve been on a Comedy Bang Bang sketch. Anyway, Gelman’s dazzling performance aside, this one is roughly as good as the other Fat Guy episodes, which is not very.
MAIL BAG
This show is awesome and its looks great
Hey, Thanks. I worked very hard to make it a reality. I do all of this for you, my fans.
This show is awesome and its looks great
Why did you send this TWICE!???! LOSER!!!!!!
When you posted your letterbox I noticed your screename and I remember it from Mockery boards. I don't think we talked much but I remember you being very funny on that board and the place getting significantly worse when you left. You keep up with anyone on that board? I was Ihatch on there.
Hello Ihatch! I only vaguely remember you but that is okay. I fell out of touch with a lot of those people but I still speak to one or two! I also do that weird thing where you follow each other on twitter and read each others tweets but don't actually interact with each other. I heard they call that website "X" now. Xcuse me? LOL. Anyway thank you for following me on Letterboxd, it's literally my favorite social media platform even though I don't use it too much. I wish everyone I knew was on there.

*Greta introduces herself to them politely. She listens amazed at the Terminator movie Weasel speaks of. Shes got no room to judge Pestos voice, her own sounds almost completely robotic at times.*
Greta: *talks to Gold* Ooh! Do u know goth makeup? I think its so pretty.
*she shows her own much smaller stash of makeup, but its got all the staples for a good stash. she gives him free reign of it if he wants to use any of what shes got. Next to it, theres a piece of rubber just big enough to cover the part of her face and neck thats part of the machine*
Greta: Ive got a tv now we can watch while we do makeup. Got it yesterday. *its an old one* I can play most things from my phone up on it. Free youtube videos mostly.
*she hopes shes being a good hostess making a good impression and they like her.*
*she doesnt really know or think about alcohol, barely even registers to her. But she offers them what she does have. Water, juice, tea, coffee*
Gold and weasel have tea while pesto settles for water. Weasel gives Greta a crash course on pirating websites and how to get basically any show for free without getting caught. Gold meanwhile has a hissy fit over her makeup kid
Gold: ugh what is this?? Justice baby makeup? Girl when I’m done with you, you won’t be touching this sh*t ever again!
Weasel: nyeheheh, ok terminator or home alone?
Pesto: ….. hm’ alone sounds gd…
