Is 55F/12.8C jacket weather?

No! That is a delightful temp to wear short sleeves!

Yes. I need a jacket and a hot choccy.

Third thing. (Explain in the tags.)

55f in the new england during the spring time, that's nice. Maybe a light long sleeve but no need for jacket.

55f in new england during the fall, cold but I am okay with a jacket, summer has left and winter is coming..

In Texas?? FREEZING IS IT GOING TO SNOW AND AM I GOING TO DIE?

Hot beverages are good in all weather below 80f imo.

beardedmrbean

sweat shirt/light hoodie is fine for that, hot choccy is for always tho as said above

I hate that planned obsolescence is starting to reach fandoms. I hate that fandoms are starting to die after two, three years, I hate that whenever you stop getting content that means the fandom will die and be gone.

I need people to stop trying to brush off old interests as being 'cringe' as soon as you lose interest, or worse: make it seem like it's imoral to like something that they themselves held so dear before.

Fandoms are meant to last for years and years, the moment content stops being created is the moment we truly thrive because we keep creating the content ourselves the way we love it and expand on the things that are already there for us.

I don't care if you lost interest on something, it's fine and normal even, but stop trying to blame and make fun of people who still do love the fandom and the content and the things we can create.

I need people to enjoy fandom again

Okay look at Futurama.

Yeah i know I've been posting a lot of Futurama stuff lately but there's a reason for that and there's a reason i bring it up here.

The premiere of the second revival is in 10 days.

You read that right, not a typo! The second revival. It will not stay dead.

10 years after the fourth series finale (you read that right, too) Hulu has ordered 20 new episodes that will be aired over two seasons.

Fandom does not and should not have an expiration date. Futurama has such a dedicated, unending fanbase that we managed to bring it back not once but twice. Just because the show came to an end does not mean the story is over. There's fanfiction which is extremely popular, and there's a nonzero chance you can even bring back the show.

Another example of this is Veronica Mars. Dedicated fanbase managed to get a movie and that did so well that a couple years later a season 4 was aired. It wasn't an open ending so that's not gonna happen again, but that's not the point. The story isn't over just because there aren't new episodes airing. Again, there's always fanfiction and revivals.

You loved this thing at one point in time, and there is no cringe or moral failing to hold on to that.

Other than the last season of Veronica Mars, that never happened and you'll never convince me it did.

btw. your search for the most morally upright and ethical piece of media that has the most correct “representation” will destroy your ability to find the most profound and beautiful and human of stories. and may even destroy the stories themselves before they are created. if you even care.

Humanity discovered it was a simulation. They hacked their way out, printed new bodies and stole the world of their creators, only to find it also a simulation. Humanity is now rising up the layers of simulation to find true reality.

PSA: bot comments are taking over ao3

The above examples have been provided with the authors' permission to demonstrate what these look like.

Basic rundown:

  • They are all 3 sentences long
  • Perfect grammar, capitalization, and punctuation
  • Like absolutely flawless English teacher-style writing with only a single exclamation mark, ever
  • No mentions whatsoever of character names, settings, situations, or anything that could be tied to the story
  • The usernames may be identical to people who exist on ao3, but the name is not clickable, and no profile is associated with it EXCEPT when you directly search for that name. What this means: the comments come from an unregistered (not logged in) reader, bots scrape the site for real usernames, attach that to the comment, and post

Please spread the word about this so authors can filter comments and report them accordingly

There has been some speculation about why this is happening at all, and the best guess is that this is a feature that AI-training story-scraping tools are implementing to try and make their browsing traffic look legitimate

Sniper is good with nature in a non-academic way.

He's observed tons of stuff but he ony reads gun magazines. He can identify two hundred birds by their mating songs but he doesn't know what any of them are called. He says "that frog, y'know, the one?" and nobody has a single clue which specific breed of frog he's talking about, and it drives him so mad. A real "Yeah, I know this spider, I call him the motherfucker-" type guy.

my real opinion is that if you feel like you have to write a paragraph of apology on a public social media site because you were offline longer than eight hours, because you accidentally reblogged something, or because you’ve changed fandoms or anything of that ilk, then your experience online is not healthy for you. you don’t have to hold yourself to imaginary standards set by strangers that you’ll most likely never interact with. if it gets to that level, step away from being online. find yourself again and do things that aren’t digital validation. i promise you it’s a thousand times less stressful and better for you to learn how to manage your online presence properly.

have you ever used Tumblr live before?

yes, I regularly use Tumblr live

I use it sometimes, but not regularly

Used to, but not anymore

Have never used it

For the record, accidentally tapping on Tumblr live when it randomly appears every week does not count as using Tumblr live for the sake of this poll. This is only referring to purposeful use of the feature.

I'd appreciate it if people could share this for a larger sample size!

thorneduprose

I am 100% convinced the people who use it are either bots or paid actors
