okokay so like. I normally do NOT do requests that jump the queue and are sent in as a submission, since submissions are specifically for YOUR ART and pet pics and neat things to show me
but I NEEDED to get this done while that ocean fuckup was still relevant so here we go
The parody site posted a fake article that claimed Brooks was booed off stage by Texas country fans upset that Brooks supports diversity. It wonât on to say that Brooks called the imaginary fans assholes. Abbott was in such a hurry to hate on the lgbt and Brooks that he tweeted the article .
twitter limiting the amount of tweets you get to read per day is ridiculous but if tiktok limited the amount of videos people got to see per day it would be the biggest win for mental health since ssris
idk who needs to hear this rn but suffering is not noble. take the tylenol
One time when I was younger I was refusing to take headache medicine and my mom said âthe person who invented that medicine is probably so sad you wonât let them help youâ and now every time I find myself denying medicine I just imagine the saddest scientist making those big wet eyes like âwhy wonât you let me helpâ and whoop then I take the medicine
scientist when you donât take the medicine they developed to help your pain
As long as you are taking a SAFE dose of it, then itâs *good* for you. Pain is bad for the body. The inflammation from prolonged pain can worsen chronic issues and make it harder to heal.
Ibuprofen is best for pain that has inflammation, while acetaminophen doesnât help with inflammation but is more broadly effective on other types of pain. As long as you are taking the recommended dose, you can even take them TOGETHER, since they have different mechanisms of action.
You do need to be aware of how much and how often you are taking any pain medication. Overdoses can be very painful (even lethal.) And if you are in chronic pain often enough that you need more than the safe dose, then you need to look into other medications to manage that pain.
(Also, if you are specifically taking Acetaminophen/Tylenol for your go-to pain management, getting some NAC and taking that with it reduces the risk of overdose AND may strengthen the effect.)
One other thing: NSAIDS (ibuprofen, aspirin, and naproxen being the three big ones) can cause digestive issues with chronic use, including stomach ulcers. That doesnât mean âdonât take them,â it means âif youâre at the point where youâre on them all the time, every day, constantly, you should talk to a doctor about either reducing that risk or switching to another medication that doesnât have those side effects.â
Meet the â¨Most Beautiful Tree Frogâ¨, Guibemantis pulcherrimus, a new species described by my colleagues and me in the journal Zootaxa this week. The scientific name âpulcherrimusâ literally means 'most beautifulâ. Itâs a close relative of Guibemantis pulcher (just 'beautifulâ, ha!), but has more little spots and less pronounced lateral blotches. Itâs found in the northeast of Madagascar, where it lives in Pandanus screw-palms.
If you’re adopted internationally into the United States, BY adoption LAWS you’re legally a citizen, but you still have to apply for documentation and if it’s not done by the age of 18 you have to pay over $500 and get a judge to reopen your adoption case.
Even More Fun Fact: No one actually tells adoptive families, this so many find out after they’re 18 when their kid needs to get a passport, wants to apply for financial aid, get certain jobs, vote or some other shit that requires proof of citizenship and now it’s too late because they’re 18 or over.
AND EVEN MORE FUN FACT! You can sometimes even be deported because you can be considered foreign-born, non-citizens!
Oh and they won’t accept adoption papers or a birth certificate as proof.
Do it now! Seriously. Even if you think you are safe. Do it.
Many people are finding that even a birth certificate is not valid proof anymore. Texas birth certificates are notorious. So notorious that I have 3 friends who can’t use them to get passports! Don’t think everything is hunky dory. You must nail down your citizenship.
Plus the cost for your citizenship certificate is almost doubling this fall.
SIGNAL BOOST.
Some Naturalization/Citizenship Certificate tips from me, the person who front-end processes these forms for half the country: the passport people are absolute garbage at sending your Naturalization Certificate back to you. Unfortunately, they also require it for you to get a passport. If you don’t get it back, whine at them about it and they will probably cover the cost of the replacement.
Also! It takes up to 12 months to get a replacement certificate. If you urgently need your Natz Cert to visit your dying relative in another country, the word you want to use is ‘Expedite’. Not ‘ASAP’. Not ‘rush’. Expedite. Write a letter explaining why you need it expedited, if you do. Otherwise the USCIS data-entry grunts (me!) aren’t allowed to throw it into the expedite line and it gets relegated to the Backlog Crypts.
Also! You need to get a new Naturalization Certificate if your name and/or gender legally changes, because a lot of places want your proof of citizenship for things like Social Security and student loans and Medicaid/EBT/welfare benefits and drivers’ licenses.
ALSO ALSO both the N600 ($600) that you use to apply for your Naturalization Certificate in the first place and N565 ($345) that you use to apply for a replacement certificate are eligible for FEE WAIVERS. It’s called an I912. Learn it, love it, use it.
Please for your sake make sure you are using the current version of the form. The most common reason I have to reject an N565 is because someone sent me something that expired in 2013. The current one is seven pages long. Please send the government all seven of them.
Just so weâre all on the same page with the writerâs strike.
If during the strike, itâs announced about AI generated shows. We are not watching them. Not even out of curiosity. Let them fail every AI generated show they try make.
The human voice can not be replaced by AI. Donât let them try.
This isnât likely to happen, but the threat of it will, and itâs important to know the difference.
The studios canât make an âAI-Writtenâ show without a human writer. This isnât because Chat-GPT isnât ready for a Sunday school play much less Prime Time, though that is true. This is because AI-generated content is public domain until modified, and under the US Copyright Officeâs current standards, modified very substantially.
Modifying raw output sufficiently to be copyrightable would require a writer, and the writers are on strike, so somebodyâs crossing that picket line if they do that. Without that kind of heavy rewriting, the studios wouldnât own the scripts of the material they were putting out, and their entire business model is built on IP monopolies even when such monopoly isnât required for their success.
The studios are going to threaten both the workers and the audiences with AI-generated scripts, but that threat has no teeth, because they were already planning it and thatâs a big part of why the strike happened.
The studios have dreams of AI-genned scripts being rewritten for pennies by temporary contract writers. This isnât a new impulse. Reality TV was a prototype, the constant farming of social media for unpaid content is another.
AI is a tool, and advancements in tool technology should benefit workers, not exploit them. If a writer wants to use an AI tool for part of their process, I have no problem with that. But a studio wants to use an AI to generate base concepts so no writer(s) are the âCreatorâ (in the âcreated byâ in the credits sense) and then underpay freelancers to make the stuff tolerable? Thatâs right out, in the same way using unpaid interns to generate the same material would be.
Twitter: what level of enshittification are you on? Tumblr: I dunno, 4, maybe 5? We took away the ability to easily go directly to an individual post off the dashboard and we’re still trying to Pivot to Streaming Twitter: you are like little baby. watch this Twitter: [BANS READING POSTS]
You can say kill yourself this is the murder tits cock penis website
Not only is tumblr a place where you can say âFormer Kaufman County District Attorney and Rockwall County Chief Felony Assistant District Attorney Louis "Billâ Conradt Jr., In An Attempt To Evade Capture For Soliciting Sex From What He Believed To Be A Teenager, Absolutely Blew His Own Brains Out In A Gunshot Suicide When Caught As The Pedophile He Was"; itâs in fact the one website i can think of nowadays where we would and likely should celebrate every November 5th as âDipshit Pedophile DA Louis "Billâ Conrad Shot Himself To Death" Day but November 5th is already a pretty busy day around here so idk maybe we can fold it into the festivities
We are a chaos cesspool of unique holidays. We can absolutely add this to November 5th.
Oh boy!! It’s a fucking mystery?? A spooky scary mystery!! Better get fucking Sherlock Holmes on this one! It’s a big fucking mystery, with no obvious answer!

This is not a Sherlock Holmes mystery. This is a Scooby-Doo mystery, where the villain is an old white guy pulling a real estate / inheritance scam.
