beautiful women named 503 error site maintenance keep messaging me
twitter is going to be shut down. half of reddit is locked or completely unmoderated. the entire first page of google search results are ads. tumblr does not and will never have a functioning search system and their content moderation is 100% automated. youtube only shares ad revenue with people who make snuff films for Youtube Kids. facebook is selling your grandma’s social security number under the table for like $5. web 2.0 is completely dead right
Listen, you should never film strangers in public without their consent, but I swear there need to be fines or something for people who do that shit in some spaces. For example: I had to go to the ER last night, and some jerk filmed a woman who just came in and was clearly having an asthma attack. She immediately got to go back, and he was unhappy about that. Believe me, I get that it sucks having to wait when you're in pain, but you don't get to pick who deserves care when. The medical system in the US is a nightmare, and the ER could be the worst moment of someone's life. No one deserves to be recorded because some jack ass believes someone doesn't look like they need care.
This is fine to reblog. People who film strangers should be shamed if nothing else.
I know a lot of EFR instructors (Emergency first response, the people who teach CPR classes) who used to be ambivalent about this and now are firmly in the "fuck you fuck your phone category.
Maybe its demographics, EFR instructors do tend to be older and less online, but there's been a shift from voyeur filming being seen as irritating and tasteless to actively harmful.
I met one lady who had an entire section of her lecture based on how to divide labor in emergency and one of those steps was crowd control. If you are taking charge of an emergency situation, you delegate tasks. Point at one person and tell them to call 911, Point at another person tell them to warn traffic, Point at another person tell them to get the first aid kit if you know where it is. You assign small tasks to individuals instead of asking a crowd that way the task actually happens, and you're not sitting around 20 minutes later wondering why the ambulance is taking so long to show up and it turns out that everyone assumed someone else called.
Now there is another step. Pick a big dude and tell him to stop people from filming. Which is actually the tamest version of what she said, because this lady went on and on about how phones are fragile, light, small, pieces of computer equipment that can be easily punted into oblivion.
And yeah, she's probably the most vocal proponent of property destruction in the face of voyeur filming I've heard lately but she's far from the only person in emergency services who's frustrated with the eternal quest for viral videos of strangers pain.
And to be clear there is a huge difference between the paramedic who doesn't want you filming and the cop who doesn't want you filming.
Quick reminder that July is disability pride month. Not “gay wrath month”.
When ableism is a massive issue in the queer community and most pride events aren’t accessible maybe y’all should. Idk. Try a bit fucking harder to educate urselves this July.
Reblog if you had a Tumblr for 5+ years
Cyprus the Microraptor! 🦖🌲
another CraftyIntention’s pattern that i’ve been meaning to do for a while. a challenge, but a fun one!
I have used their patterns before! They are very well done, and thoroughly photographed to be easier to follow. Their feather designs are just beautiful.
[id: a crochet Microraptor. It is light brown, with feathers in various shades of blue on its head, its limbs, and its tail.]
It's pizza night and I got word from home that I am supposed to pick up "something new"
So I talked to my local pizza expert, a rad kid named Chaos. I asked them what I should do. They said to leave it to them.
Godspeed Chaos
I said "pose with it like it's a fish you just caught"
So Chaos said "I'll do the white dad smile!"
They request that when you go to Papa Murphy's please just let the kids make you whatever they want as it is apparently the best part of the job
Oh, so things I should have noted:
- When I walked in I was treated with "Oh, it's THIS GUY!"
- Where I work gets me a small discount on orders made at this particular branch. Tonight I was given a 50% discount for funnsies
- I only know their name is Chaos because the time I came in and they were wearing a name tag. No one here wears name tags. They made it themselves. Out of tape.

Ah how I love 48277493 fins floating around in the water and covering all the spots of the art piece that I actually liked *dies*
Line art is under the cut because it got lost under the lightning and fins
