Maddie, some age now. Like the title says. I pretty much run a multi-fandom blog plus whatever else I like Had an actual theme for about two months back in 2012. Absolute chaos since then.
tumblr’s code may change but no notes ghost stays the same
Oh thank god
imagine the shit storm when tumblr finally becomes so dysfunctional that this post’s total notes is finally revealed
In case anyone’s curious about what happened to this post, it has to do with how we tally up notes. Likes and reblogs always add to the note count of the root post (the OP). However, the note count relies on the previous value of the root post before adding more notes to it.
Normally when you delete a post, it’s gone, but not gone gone. Just deleted from public never to be seen again. The database entry is still there, just inaccessible.
This post, however, the root post is just gone. Gone gone. Gone forever. Everything attached to it is still there, but since the root post is hard deleted, it’s got nothing to add to. When the note counter tries to add notes to nothing, it goes nowhere.
So it throws every new note into the void. Goodbye forever, notes.
I’m not sure if we’ll ever know the real number of notes on this post.
This is actually very normal human behavior. It’s just that most people (in the USA) think “Jesus strengthens me” instead of “I am a pikmin, dandori time”
This is literally why stories and fantasy are so useful to humans. We cannot tackle every mundane challenge with enthusiasm, and facing against profoundly daunting tasks can be deeply demoralizing, and you don’t get to feel cool or heroic for filing 400 pieces of paperwork.
We arm ourselves with stories and fantasy, so that the laundry can become a charming hurdle to overcome, and the daunting stack of bills is the leviathan we the brave knights must slay.
Humans have always been like this. So many cultures have stories or mythology or even rituals about literally embodying another being better suited to the challenge one currently faces.
the funniest dynamc between my boyfriend and i is the chef/baker divide runs so deep. experimentally my boyfriend is a genius with figuring out what flavor profiles will not just taste good together but also will be enjoyed by the specific audience he is cooking for. a recipe is not a guidebook so much as a suggestion and he will frankenstein ideas together to get exactly what he wants to happen. he also didnt know that sugar will not work properly if you dont mix it with the wet ingredients in banana bread and when i asked ‘why didnt you do it in the order of the recipe’ he said 'i didnt really think it mattered’. autistically i exploded his head in my mind
I just watched Altered Carbon season 1 again, the references, the cyberpunk looks, the thematics, and the feel of learning something after ending it. Such a great watch
If you want to read an academic article that’s behind a paywall just email the author and ask politely if they will send you the article. Most academics will be thrilled that you want to read their work and will gladly send it to you.
Gentle reminder to anyone able to make it to any protests coming up please practice proper protest etiquette both for your own safety and that of others.
Wear a mask, cover any tattoos, and don’t wear clothing with recognizable logos or branding. Don’t take pictures of yourself or others. Don’t talk to cops.
Protests aren’t a fun event to post about on social media, we are trying to make an real change. Be safe and responsible
