this was a dump of pc text, for the record. there's not a full event, just the text. i would guess the reason is there's no map they could use for the event, since the others use existing maps instead

Yosano Akiko - Wikipedia

a dataminer who was there when i found this suggested her name probably comes from Yosano Akiko en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yosano_...

I don't have a proper translation of this (as I don't know enough Japanese to do it myself), but just from what I can glean it's Okumura by himself at a family grave or perhaps a home shrine for mourning, addressing his father and someone named Akiko (likely Haru's mother).

a screengrab of a p5r text dump in notepad++. the window shows japanese text from a file called e494_010.BMD.msg. the start of another file called e494_020.BMD.msg can be seen below it.

They have this button on the right hand column that in addition to public shaming, lets you shame them in other useful ways

crazy how deepfake porn that uses faces of real people and ruins lives has never been a subject in the "protecting internet users" argument and instead all the recent censorship ended up being targeted at artists and sex workers just trying to make a living

How could you…

Do not punish the behaviour you want to see I mean, it seems pretty obvious when you put it like that, right? But how many families, when an introvert sibling or child makes an effort to socialize, snarkily say, "So, you've decided to join us"? Or when someone does something they've had trouble doing, say, "Why can't you do that all the time?" (Happened to me, too often.) Or any sentence containing the word "finally". If someone makes a step, a small step, in a direction you want to encourage, encourage it. Don't complain about how it's not enough. Don't bring up previous stuff. Encourage it. Because I swear to fucking god there is nothing more soul-killing, more motivation-crushing, than struggling to succeed and finding out that success and failure are both punished.

Do not punish the behaviour you want to see.

actions that will contribute more to pushing against bluesky's censorship than a blackout:

-submitting a feedback request
-@ing moderation about it
-commenting on mods posts about it
-making and sharing memes (ex: "i consent!" sticker)
-leaving an app store review
-just generally posting about it

while i am no fan of the pharmaceutical industry it would be very funny if johnson & johnson went full scorched earth on the trump administration for hurting tylenol sales

Wow, thanks for helping you since the beginning of the site only to be spitted in the face. Guess worrying about cartoon characters fucking are more dangerous than terfs and people advocating for the genocide in gaza.

doctors i trust more than rfk jr :)

"they will just make up stuff to be mad at" true! but *your face* won't be the one next to it

This is the biggest attack on free speech since the McCarthy era but it also has significantly less popular consensus behind it than the second Red Scare. It's being done on behalf of a minority faction led by the most unpopular president in modern history. Organizing against this can win.

Work is hard when you slept poorly and a champion napper has decided your desk is her new spot.

It is wild that Charlie Kirk of all things is becoming *the* litmus test.

Even just talking about the event publicly without a sufficient supply of sackcloth and ashes is cast as "promoting political violence." I haven't seen this kind of mandatory performance of allegiance and piety since 9/11.

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

I'm sorry, but this may be the funniest Facebook AI slop I have ever seen. Bury me sideways in my coffin, brother. Let my dog see

Man, I’ve been illegally profiting off Homestuck re-uploads for years by posting them to PornHub and lawyers haven’t once told me to denounce Sara Z for slandering Andrew Hussie by publishing his own words, in full, in the context within which he said them.

This is why I use Windows 10 as my daily driver. I've tried 11 many times, really wanted to love it.

But you've got literal spyware, janky menus, and now it just outright corrupts your hard drive. This trash keeps getting worse

uhc was/is still the best way to read it simply because adobe flash is deprecated, and iirc some of the offsite links have fallen to link rot

in fairness im kinda unclear whether they or viz media were the primary maintainers when that partnership was a thing (which is when the domain changed from mspaintadventures.com to homestuck.com), but it didnt exactly get better when the viz partnership ended

i love being autistic about things with shitty creators 💀
