I feel like the whopping zero success stories since like 2014 of Tumblr callouts actually keeping communities safe or successfully removing genuinely dangerous people or doing anything good should be a pretty good clue that it's at best an incredibly-likely-to-backfire and unlikely-to-succeed way to ensure actual accountability and at its worst (99% of the time) it's basically just malicious, spurious horseshit.

Even in cases where somebody actually is a bonafide noxious actor there's a dozen better ways to go about it. What year is it. I can't believe this shit has happened several times in 2023. This website is stuck in time.

In other news, it is now not only morally acceptable but the morally correct thing to do to pirate the fuck out of Adobe’s software line.

Independent bookstores around the country have a particularly clever lifeline, one perfectly suited to the unprecedented moment we find ourselves in. The strange part? It came into being just weeks before the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus outbreak a pandemic, and before the bookstores started closing up shop wondering if they’d reopen at all.

The lifeline in question is called Bookshop. 

In simple terms, it’s a super clean, user-friendly online bookstore whose raison d’être is supporting independent bookstores — not simply with exposure or resources (though that’s certainly a factor), but with cold hard cash…

Does anyone ever think about when Tain in s2e22 The Wire said:

I never had to order Garak to do anything. That’s what made him special.

and when Garak in s6e19 In the Pale Moonlight said:

That’s why you came to me, isn’t it, Captain? Because you knew I could do those things that you weren’t capable of doing.

and simply go insane about the concept that Garak has transplanted some of his unhealthy eagerness-to-be-useful that he once saved for Tain into a similar dynamic with Sisko? <3

Zak Smith is a rapist

The following are excerpts from a real court case (Case #20STCV09708). Grey did include one statement deemed false by the court, that she was forced to move in with Zak, and thus was forced to pay $1 in damages.

Zak has repeatedly referred to this decision as essentially a flawless victory, but is clearly not expecting people to read anything but his opinion. So, just to make sure people are aware of what evidence I’m using to support my use of the term rapist.
