That’s Louis Rossman, a repair technician and YouTuber, who went viral recently for railing against Apple. Apple purposely charges a lot for repairs and you either have to pay up or buy a new device. That’s because Apple withholds necessary tools and information from outside repair shops. And to think, we were just so close to change.

it fucks me up that tolkien only died in 1973. dude has the vibe of a victorian scholar who wrote all his manuscripts by candlelight but then you look him up and realise that he knew what color tv was. what the fuck.

i learned that Binghamton University researchers have been working on a self-healing concrete that uses a specific type of fungi as a healing agent. When the fungus is mixed with concrete, it lies dormant until cracks appear, when spores germinate, grow and precipitate calcium carbonate to heal the cracks (x)

schools reopened in greece today and among other incidents a mother yanked the mask off her son’s face and told him to never wear a mask, a father head-banged a teacher for saying that his kids will have to wear masks at school, sending the teacher to the hospital, someone tried to sue a school for not letting their kids enter without a mask, parents are protesting in the streets against the use of masks at schools and i heard a woman say that masks are suffocating the children and that they’re bad for their development. not to be radical but since covid refusers want to die so bad just go ahead…

The thing I hate most about depression is that it tricks you into thinking you don’t have depression. It makes you think that nothing is wrong with you, that you just feel this way because you lack value as a person. Whether that’s in your relationships, your academics, or a view of yourself, it makes you think you aren’t good enough for any of that.

“It’s not the illness,” it says, “You feel this way because it’s who you are.”

Literally the only reason more jobs weren’t already “work from home” is that companies think people will be less productive if they have more privacy and comfort which is just so, so, so fucking insulting. No job that can be done on a computer should require a physical office. None at all. All that shit should be abolished and then just imagine how much time, money, fuel and space would be collectively saved. Holy shit. How many people were commuting to work every day for cubicle shit?? How much CO2 was that?? How much total land do office complexes take up right now that could be cheap housing or sky gardens or solar power banks or literally anything more useful?

Honestly as a blind person I’m so tired of seeing fictional blind characters who don’t use white canes or other guides. “They have special powers so they know what’s around them” or “they’re confident enough to not need a guide” are common tropes, and I’m tired.

Are people scared that using a white cane will make their blind character seem weak? They can’t use a cane because they’re so special that they already know what’s around them, and other blind people who use guides are inferior because they’re not special?

I’m tired. Give your blind characters white canes and other guides. Let them hold onto their friends, let them have guide dogs. Don’t make white cane users feel ostracized for not being “strong enough” to go without.

Another thing that pisses me off is when a sighted character comes up with the fantasy equivalent of braille and teaches it to the blind character. Braille was invented by Louis Braille, a blind man, in 1824. The blind character should be the one coming up with it.

Tldr I’m blind and tired of sighted people lol

AU where instead of trying to cure her infertility Yennefer just goes around saving random people’s lives and invoking the law of surprise bcos she figures sooner or later it’ll net her a baby. she hasn’t got one yet but she has amassed about 2 dozen dogs so she’s doing pretty well for herself.
