Maybe Bartlett should've signed up for this before making Miller's Girl.

🤣🤣🤣🤣💀

In responding to a Tesla owner group acct, Elon Musk says they're removing the ability to block people except that you can block people from DMing you.

I deleted my acct last week. Recommend the rest of you do the same.

#twitter #x twitter #elon musk #I cannot believe I spend money to show this post to other people #that this is how bad things are

it is. so weird to me that I'm having to say this again after a real-life cartoon supervillian already once ran for president on a platform of hatred & fascism and won, but.

it's November, please fucking vote

#not a shitpost #serious post #this election cycle will DETERMINE what legislation gets passed #it will DETERMINE THE FUTURE OF ABORTION RIGHTS AND GAY MARRIAGE AND OTHER LGBTQ+ PROTECTIONS #the supreme court plans to destroy as much progress as possible and that means we have to rely on congress to protect those rights #which they can only do if the Dems control the senate and the house #we are in FULL BLOWN DAMAGE CONTROL MODE here #especially because it is still somehow perfectly possible and actually probable #that the festering pile of garbage in human form who recently tried to overthrow the government will end up back on the ballot in 2024 #we still haven't recovered from 4 years of trump and if we don't show up at the polls it is perfectly possible we will get another 4 years #vote this november to protect basic human rights #and vote in november 2024 so we don't have to survive another 4 years under trump #because many of us--the most vulnerable of us--won't survive. and many many more will suffer #vote to protect yourself and your neighbors. vote to protect those who most need protection.#vote because it is the right thing to do #vote out of kindness #and vote out of spite--because billionaires are spending insane amounts of money to prevent you from voting #so tell them to get fucked and vote anyway #do it out of spite and do it out of heart and do it out of rage and do it out of love #show up #us politics

the posts about pw buying that spongebob kaws painting for 2 million dollars are funny except he didnt buy it for 2 million dollars. the nyt article that features pete standing next to "grr" was published in december 2016. the painting was sold at auction for 2.1 million in november 2019. three years AFTER the original photo was taken. he SOLD it for 2 million dollars. or somebody did <3

#look i dont doubt pete is spending ridiculous money on art and erewhon sushi #but he's got mouths to feed!!! tuition to pay!!!! et paintings to commission!!!!#imo he bought that painting in 2008 for a couple thousand bc i can't find any other records of it being on sale at another point in time #sorry i have actual better things i should be doing instead of thinking about this. so of course i'm thinking about this

seeing people's takes about the whole watcher situation is just a bit.... mind-boggling.

i think the apology they posted was good in the sense that they admitted to fucking up and walked back on their decision, and i think the model they've settled on now is a lot more reasonable (having content be released earlier for those who choose to subscribe), but like.... that doesn't mean that no one should've ever been mad at them in the first place???

like seriously, why does it seem like people are looking at a "good" apology and thinking "huh! they sure did apologize well! i guess that means that it was ridiculous for people to be mad in the first place! no one should have ever complained!!". if no one complained, they wouldnt have walked back their decision! they would've kept going with their dumb completely paywalled option!

and thats not even getting into the fact that their financial woes seem to come from completely mismanaging their money - hiring people when they can not afford to and spending more money on "high quality productions" when they cant afford to.... these are core issues that im not sure will be completely fixed by this? but idk.

also, this situation i think has really helped my own self come to terms with the fact that i do not enjoy many aspects of their content. i sorta already knew that considering i can not remember the last ghost files video i watched because i find that shit incredibly boring and overproduced, and even things like too many spirits have become a chore to watch bc they decided to extend the Not That Funny drink making portion when i just wanna hear some funny spooky stories.

anyway i guess my ultimate point here is: im glad they acknowledged they fucked up, but i also am not sure how interested i am in their content anymore in the first place. oh well

#watcher #i still personally dont know if i would call them 'greedy' for their original choice #for the record: i dont think the three of them are struggling at all lmao #they clearly are living pretty well off #but i do think that watcher as a company really has been struggling bc of their awful business decisions #so i DO think they needed to change SOMETHING #its just.... yknow maybe next time just fucking ask ur audience about the routes ur considering taking #rather than just surprising everyone with a 'whoops! its all paywalled now!!'#im really not sure how to articulate my feelings bc i just constantly feel confused at the way i see others act online #like seeing people yell at others for being 'too parasocial' in the sense of people feeling betrayed and upset by their choices #when those same people are being incredibly parasocial themselves by defending these three like their lives depend on it #these are not starving artists. they are the owners of a business. a ceo. i think its fair for ppl to critique them in that sense #and to point out things like hiring more staff than they can afford #and spending more money on production than is arguably necessary #even if it is part of their 'artistic vision'

Every time I see someone say "find a better way to cope" when referring to writing or reading fiction, I have to fight back the urge to start laughing hysterically.

Buddy, pal, dude, writing and reading fiction is the better way of coping.

#not only is it really shitty to act like you know how to deal with someone elses issues more than they do #its also wild to put fiction into the same category as actual bad coping skills / methods #ppl will cope by abusing others by using drugs by self harm by isolation by spending money #you know like... actually... harmful.... shit #im never going to use the term proship/proshipper for myself bc i dont ship or anything #and the issue with censoring isnt just with ships and fandom #pro fiction #i also hate the term antiship / antishipper #the terms feel like such bs tbh #i rlly love the “fuck proshitters >:(” thing in dnis tho bc its so... funny... and edgy #tags for reach #proship #fuck antishippers #fuck antis

im kinda glad i was a tiny child when windwaker came out and i only played it years later without having internet access for the longest time bc i would have NOT survived the hatred i know ww got when it first came out bc it wasnt what most people expected (ww is my fav zelda)

loving botw but not liking totk and seeing the vast majority praise the latter like its the holy grail while alot also discrediting and needlessly hating on botw for it is already making it hard to stay calm about :U

#ganondoodles talks #special interest go brrrr #sucks when you care so much about a piece of media thats out of your control and it does something you hate #i do not control the hyperfixation #it wouldnt be so bad if people wouldnt keep hating on botw just to praise totk more tbh #and before people say but arent YOU doing the same thing in reverse???#welll ... its suppposedly a sequel yes?#direct sequels should build on the first title and totk does the opposite doesnt it?#again one of my biggest problems is that it was advertised and called a direct sequel qhen it really isnt #like at all #how some characters also made a weird turn in their personality it really does feel like it did a majoras mask thing without admitting to i #like majoras is GOOD #it was weird and kinda nonsensical but ultimately worked #can you imagine if totk just went with the whole other dimension thing properly and really went ham with it-#.... i am coming up with even more ideas for totk rewritten arent it..#anyway i dont think im gonna get a collectors edition ever again given the risk of me not liking what its for #regret spending that kind of money on it after i calmed down my fears and in the end they turned out to be mostly right #;__;

... why he sit like this

#in this position his face is extremely 'cartoon cat' shaped.. like the perfectly round cheeks and little #rounded bump of a snout.. big round eyes. etc. stretched over the arm of a chair like a weirdo #cats #It's still Hot Evil Summer time and I have so much to do so am just aimlessly hopping between various projects but not actually #getting anything done. as usual. Also so so so so tired. I almost fell asleep in the middle of the floor like 3 times today lol #Trying to finish some costume photos and also another poll adventure thing. plus I do really want to do a sculpture sometime #I haven't finished one in a while. Hopefully my tiredness is nothing bad.#Maybe I'm anemic again so that's making me tired. Or maybe it's just a Listless phase. not that I'm ever really THAT productive considering #all of the health problems and etc. always holding me back. but still. I'm not usually 'sleep or just stare at a wall literally all day' ty #e unproductive.. at least not for multiple days in a row so. hmm... Sometimes especially in the summer though I will have periods of time #that are listless like that. I am under low level phyiscal stress for months at a time due to summer heat so I guess it makes sense #that would eventually take a toll. I just have SO MANY THINGS I WANT TO DO!!!!! AAUUGhhh #I also came up with a new idea for a game that is so so cool and I wish I could make it but I have to finish the other one first lol #which I will NEVER do. if I spend all day just sleepy unfocused barely able to do anything #I also really need to sell some clothes and sculptures because I'll probably have to buy a new computer soon so I need money. (plus still #recovering the costs of having to euthanize my other cat.. wehh) There's nothing clearly wrong with it right now but it's getting gradually #slower and there's more weird glitches happening randomly and idk.. just weird things that make me think 'hmm... bad.. possibly.'#ANYWAY... I just have so much to do that I both REALLY want or need to do - so it's perpetually frustrating that I just can't for whatever #reason like. Time is always mving forward. every day I waste is a wasted day. The year is already almost half over. I havent finished #any of the projects I wanted to .. and there's only more and more things to do each day. It's overwhelming and stinky #and thats not even considering having to do all of my tasks also with the background noise of economic inequality. everything increasingly #going into an even scarier political direction. active climate change crisis. pandemic that still exists and is insane to act otherwise. et #etc. HOW am I supposed to solo make two whole games . write 3 book series. finish sculptures. do costumes. make outfits. game videos. make #stable network of social connections. do my little side crafts. take care of myself and cats. pay rent. manage health issues. keep a routin #.try to make some sort of money. go to doctors appointments. handle regular maintenance like cleaning and cooking and self care #and buying new plates when old ones break or etc. make sure to do other things like backup my computer data regularly. do shopping lists.#take care of plants. pursue like 6 different academic interests. do the other side side projects I have for fun (like music or carving avoc #ado pits). eat in a healthy way thats okay for my Special Health Issue diet. exercise so i don't die early. etc. etc. etc. AND all while it #82F in my apartment all the time and I have tiny income and also need to move to another country/climate somehow??? lol......#ANYWAY.. ..very frustrated today over my chronic Tired Sleepy.. time for Cat Photos - which cure all of life's ailments lol

financial independence changed my whole outlook on life i really mean that. i will work my ass off and i will do it for MYSELF and it feels so rewarding to know that i dont have to answer to anyone about my time or money but ME. it gives me the motivation to do the best i can so i can give myself the best life possible u know

#talky cherub #JUST THINKIN ABOUT THIS #sometimes im so grateful for that 7 yr relationship ending because it forced me to take care of myself #well i mean. i have to answer to my job ALKFDLA but u kno what i mean. personal relationships. tjats what im referring to.#the other day #my mom was like . lecturing me abt something about my car and i was like gurl u dont pay my insurance. u cant tell me a thing #and she likes to tell me how to spend my money #DONT buy this DONT buy that #HELLO I HAVE A WHOLE BUDGET and u dont have access to my accounts . mind your business!#sorry for oversharing again <3 #tmi cherub

Genuinely my main thing with the Watcher thing (I watch their stuff but I’d never consider myself a die hard fan) is that I really want to see the back end projections and business plans that went into this. Show me how their math mathed to the point that this seemed not just viable, but an improvement upon YouTube at this moment in time.

I’ve been watching it unfold all day and seeing the comparisons to Dropout, the unfortunate optics of reinstating the “let’s go eat stupidly expensive stuff” show as your first big new thing for the platform while also saying you don’t have money to do the “TV-quality” things you want, all that’s fine and dandy and not incorrect. But I just can’t see how this is financially going to win out.

I wish the boys the best, hope it works out for their sakes, and I hope regardless that one day we get an idea of what the decision making process was. Not the vague “ad revenue ain’t what it used to be” type comments they made in their very not-reading-the-room announcement video, but actual numbers. I’m super interested.

#I love Dropout’s style but I’m also not subbed to them #I am chronically unable to keep up with things that aren’t on YouTube since I spend all day there #no matter how much I love them #i also think they’re trying to both-sides making content where they clearly wanna upgrade into tv level stuff #but also only want to make their Buzzfeed content that drew the eyeballs and brought in the money #but those Buzzfeed series worked because they were simple and the focus was on the guys and not the production value #mystery files lost a ton of momentum when they started talking to each other from across the room instead of next to each other at a table #ghost files doesn’t work when there’s twelve other people filming and ruining the isolated vibes #and I actually liked their watcher original stuff the best #puppet history and weird wonderful world were my favorites #I even liked Steven’s shows which is APPARENTLY a hot take now #but they all cancelled after one season #so I’m good #watcher #watcher entertainment #steven lim #ryan bergara #shane madej

Fallen Sydney is definitely the type that enthusiastically buys all sorts of kinky outfits. For themself as much as their s/o haha

Sydney buying a bunch of outfits she really wants to see on Dee. Forgetting she will have to convince/beg her for weeks to actually wear them

#sydney trying to rizz Dee up to get her into the incredibly tiny bunnysuit: PLEASEPLEASE PLEASE PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEEEEEEPLEASEPLE #im kinda torn I think Dee has a thing for costumes as well but she already has to wear them a lot for the stripclub which is like….#sure.. it’s work.. whatever. but the association sticks #and then on the other hand I think she’s partly embarrassed that she’s into it. maybe even ashamed #smth smth this shitty town makes you feel like a piece of meat so it’s difficult to feel like you have ownership over your own body and kink #I love this hc because it’s so fun and cute but Sydney would need to spend soo much money on custom tailoring for Dee (realistically)#which would be suuuuuper expensive and makes the hc way less fun lmao (like Sydney would NOT have the budget for that)#< I keep doing this but i can’t help and be acutely aware how difficult it is to get cute clothes for anyone who’s not thin #sydney the fallen #dee the defiant #dol pc #on one hand I feel a bit guilty that I keep making these posts about Dee on the other hand… this is my blog I can do what I want and..#the blog name kinda indicates it don’t it (fork spotted in kitchen etc etc)#doldykes

187.24 / 390 (08/12/22)

[full original post]

im a trans person trying to get all her pieces of identification updated so applying to / working jobs + going to school is easier. pls send accommodating workplace energy to me <3🏳️‍⚧️♿️ tysm for rbing

ⓘ this is turning into an urgent situation so if this gets to $250 i’ll take the hit for the rest because i am out of options at this point.

ko/fi other options [carrd]

#share your dollar #trans crowdfund #maybe even less than $250 im literally looking D-7 right in the eye #bc i really need a job but I literally can’t emotionally go through the process without having my name match id again #i quite literally cannot go through life without my name atp #to keep my posts from being long I don’t mention it but like this is very important to my health rn bc I need a healthcard just like so many #things are on hold because I don’t have a name and I refuse spend money on passports and other expired id just to pay for it all over again #that would just put in a position to need to crowdfunded again but with a biggest goal yk #new post because despite the numbers on the og the last donation was in July #and it was a singular donation for that whole month #hehe I’ve been crying about this today :0((( like my family calling me a freeloader and going on about they were able support themselves at #18 even though our situations are so fundamentally different like you literally didn’t have to deal with the cost to live in your own body #in terms of my like they didn’t have to pay for disability aid or pay to not be deadnamed etc like
