I took a 6yo boy to his placement and as soon as I got him situated in the back he saw my SpongeBob driver’s license air freshener hanging on my rearview mirror. He asked if that’s really SpongeBob’s driver’s license and I said yeah it’s real. Then he asked where I got it if SpongeBob’s underwater so I told him I wore a helmet like Sandy and stole it from SpongeBob when he slept, and without missing a beat he goes “That’s identity fraud”

Nope now it’s at the point that i’m shocked that people off tt don’t know what’s going down. I have no reach but i’ll sum it up anyway.
SCOTUS is hearing on the constitutionality of the ban as tiktok and creators are arguing that it is a violation of our first amendment rights to free speech, freedom of the press and freedom to assemble.
SCOTUS: tiktok bad, big security concern because china bad!
Tiktok lawyers: if china is such a concern why are you singling us out? Why not SHEIN or temu which collect far more information and are less transparent with their users?
SCOTUS (out loud): well you see we don’t like how users are communicating with each other, it’s making them more anti-american and china could disseminate pro china propaganda (get it? They literally said they do not like how we Speak or how we Assemble. Independent journalists reach their audience on tt meaning they have Press they want to suppress)
Tiktok users: this is fucking bullshit i don’t want to lose this community what should we do? We don’t want to go to meta or x because they both lobbied congress to ban tiktok (free market capitalism amirite? Paying off your local congressmen to suppress the competition is totally what the free market is about) but nothing else is like TikTok
A few users: what about xiaohongshu? It’s the Chinese version of tiktok (not quite, douyin is the chinese tiktok but it’s primarily for younger users so xiaohongshu was chosen)
16 hours later:
Tumblr media
Tiktok as a community has chosen to collectively migrate TO a chinese owned app that is purely in Chinese out of utter spite and contempt for meta/x and the gov that is backing them.
My fyp is a mix of “i would rather mail memes to my friends than ever return to instagram reels” and “i will xerox my data to xi jinping myself i do not care i share my ss# with 5 other people anyway” and “im just getting ready for my day with my chinese made coffee maker and my Chinese made blowdryer and my chinese made clothing and listening to a podcast on my chinese made phone and get in my car running on chinese manufactured microchips but logging into a chinese social media? Too much for our gov!” etc.
So the government was scared that tiktok was creating a sense of class consciousness and tried to kill it but by doing so they sent us all to xiaohongshu. And now? Oh it’s adorable seeing this gov-manufactured divide be crossed in such a way.

This is adorable and so not what they were expecting. Im sure they were expecting a reluctant return to reels and shorts to fill the void but tiktokers said fuck that, we will forge connections across the world. Who you tell me is my enemy i will make my friend. That’s pretty damn cool.

The last days of the petition against conversion therapy are FASCINATING to watch. I have been following it pretty closely for almost a year now, and the progress was, above all, steady. There was this jump when some algorithm in Finland picked it up, but even that was local.
And now, everyone is panicking.
Which really shows.
These past three or four days, multiple countries have reached the threshold. Even more notably, the number of signatures in total, the ones that we need to get one million of, are growing rapidly. There are only 400'000 signatures missing. Two days ago, it was closer to 600'000.
You can see the progress here:
Consider joining the fun by making everyone around you sign it!

I think one of the best and unintentionally funniest worldbuilding aspects in Star Wars is the reasoning of why did Bail and Breha adopt Leia instead of having their own children. Leia is first established as the princess of Alderaan before she is written to be Luke's sister. So now we need to figure out how she got to Alderaan. She was adopted because she needed to be hidden and separated from her brother. Bail was placed there to be one of the only people who knew so there would be a reason why it was them who got her. They specifically wanted a daughter. Why? Because Alderaan is a matriarchal society, so they needed a princess. Why didn't the Queen and her husband have biological children? Because they can't. Why? Because the Queen can't have kids. Why? Because she got injured as a teenager and got her internal organs replaced and her body can't handle a pregnancy. How did she get injured so badly? She fell off of a mountain. How did that happen? She was climbing it. Why was the future Queen climbing a mountain in the first place? Because she needed to go through three challenges in order to inherit the throne and one of them required her to go through something physically impressive. Why? Because before that they just held a Battle Royale for all the heirs and the one left alive got the throne and they at some point figured out that maybe they shouldn't be doing that, actually. Oh, okay.

ERASE the plot of the whole series from your minds. they’re living a calm regular life and have their own jayviks to obsess over.

Me, on the welcome desk in the library: Good morning, how are you today?
Customer: I have welcomed Jesus into my heart and so I am well today and every day.
Me, a little unnerved: Okay then! Is there something I can help you with?
Customer, digging around in his bag and pulling out an iPhone in a box: Unfortunately, Jesus can't help me with this fucking phone, so I came to the library.

pet peeve is when a fellow hater conducts their haterism such that they leave the hater community vulnerable to attack. “i think characterizing Character A in x way is boring and annoying” = beautiful, flawless, unimpeachable haterism. no one can tell u that u aren’t allowed to find a certain characterization boring. “it is morally/objectively wrong to characterize Character A in x way” = sloppy, reactionary, overcommitting. you have left our eastern flank open to attack girl what the hell….now my dedicated hater troops are taking fire from YOUR enemies fuckkkkk

Ptown's pride stuff is tomorrow (11am and 3:15pm are the ones in interested in), but the washing machine+dryer are being delivered tomorrow between 10am and 1pm. And often those estimates are off by an hour. And we're about an hour away from Ptown. Plus I don't have anyone to go with but my parents even if there's time enough to go.
On top of that I agreed to petition for my sister the night of the 28th into the morning of the 29th, which is when nyc pride is, both events in interested start at 11am, and yeah i could give the cat her morning food and then head out, but idk if id get there in time to enjoy anythingor if id get there at the end. And I don't have anyone to go with anyway.
Local pride event back at home is happening while we're away if it didn't already happen. Nothing else here in the cape besides ptown as far as I know.
Idk.
#i want queer friends#...friends in general too but i have One queer friend from work and shes not out to her family and we arent like close enough friends that#i can convince her to go with me to pride either#and i have no friends here at all#can barely interact with anyone#theres a chance that that art center on LI will have that pride event again i guess#idk tho#the other part of the issue is....I'm a homebody. I'm anxious. I'm autistic.#I'm not interested in drinking or bars or too loud music/thumping bass (hate it) or smoking#without another person who gets it to help me navigate at a big event like nyc pride i get overwhelmed and grumpy and meltdown#at the same time i neeeed to be among my ppl. i need to be around other queer ppl and celebrate and be defiant and loud and colorful#i need to inch out of my comfort zone#i cant go to a pride thing with both of my parents I'll be too... I'll get weird. about it. self conscious.#I've gone with my mom to nyc pride which was mostly fine but she tends to...not have a lot of tact..#my dad is supportive!#and theyre both...like they like rocky horror and Hair and stuff theyre not gonna be weirded out by drag queens or anything#is what I'm trying to say. theyre not going to be weird about it#but *I* am going to be weird about it#if we go#bc...i have social anxiety.#and also i tend to revert unintentionally to shy child hiding#in social situations#so just...idk#assuming the machines are delivered and installed before 2:30 and we can get to go to the 3pm thing#i think that is the street fair part#equivalent of pridefest#i really really want to go#but i feel depressy about not having any friends and not having any queer friends...#like i mean I'm friends with AJ too iirc shes queer too but i dropped the ball on actually maintaining the friendship so idk
