im not gonna post anything DELTARUNE related until toby says its ok cuz….thats what we all agreed to when downloading it and palying it but like…heres a tip….if you gonna play it:
[image description: two simple comics of characters from the adventure zone.
the first comic is four panels drawn in purple. in the first panel madame director, who is a tall woman with short hair, is show from the chest up saying, “it’s been requested that we display more artwork around the moonbase.” in the second panel she is gesturing towards a ‘Live Love Laugh’ decal and saying, “what do you think? will this improve morale?”. in the third and fourth panels taako, a short chubby elf with wavy shoulder length hair, has his arms pointing up with his elbows bent, and he turns around and walks away holding his arms in the same position. he appears fed up.
the second comic has three panels. in the first, which is drawn in dark blue, angus sits at a desk, madame director walks by in the background, and taako approaches the desk. taako says, “hey, angus! how the fuck are ya?” and angus replies, “pretty fuckin’ good sir!!” the second and third panels show madame director speaking to taako. in the second she says, “taako, it has come to my attention that you’ve been encouraging angus to use swear words.” she looks serious and taako looks surprised. in the third panel the director continues with, “…and it’s awesome.” taako interjects with “RIGHT?!”, and the director continues by saying, “we’re giving you a medal.”]
I’m honestly like super impressed with detailed image descriptions, like it not only shows a talent for like good descriptions and clear wording, but also dedication and love for other people, like they can see the image they don’t need the description, but they make it for other people and they take time and make it really good and that’s super awesome!!
So, as many of you might know, I’m Brazilian. And we just got elected our own personal Donald Trump, Jair Bolsonaro. I’ve been mostly quiet about this because it’s just… fucking disheartening.
I’ve been getting through okay, to all concerned. I’ve been so glad to find out by and large my closest family all firmly opposed this guy. And for all that I’m a lesbian, I’m also a white middle-class Christian. I’m definitely not getting the worst hit of this.
So I’m sharing this with all that would like to help. This is a fundraising campaign that’s pooling resources for several activist groups in Brazil. One of them is a place I support myself, Casa 1, which’s a shelter for homeless LGBT Youth!
I know everyone’s totally broke, but please spread this around. Let’s share a little charity in these dark times.
Thank you so much for everyone who expressed their care.
the good place is a good show because it has genuinely touching moments that discuss what it means to be a good person and how others can impact you positively etc. but also it has stuff like this
In a big victory for hacker, tinkerers, and the right to repair movement, the US Copyright Office
has ruled some major changes to the legal exemption to the DMCA, making
it far easier for owners to build software tools to hack, modify, and
repair their own devices, as explained by iFixit founder Kyle Wiens.
Under section 1201 of the Digital Millennium Copyright
Act (DMCA), it is “unlawful to circumvent technological measures used to
prevent unauthorized access to copyrighted works.” Because software has
become so integral to all the devices we use — everything from phones
to speakers to even trackers — device manufacturers have long used
section 1201 to prevent owners from taking apart or repairing their own
devices, arguing that breaking the software locks as part of replacing
parts or modifying your gadgets is a violation of that statute.
But as part of that law, citizens are allowed to petition
for exemptions to section 1201 every three years, when the Copyright
Office rules what kind of repairs and software tools are and aren’t
allowed by the law. The final ruling for this cycle was just released
(it goes into effect as law on October 28th), and it enacts broad new
protections for repairing devices.
The right to jailbreak and modify voice-assistant devices, like those powered by Amazon’s Alexa or Google Assistant
It’s now legal to unlock new phones, and not just used ones
There’s a general exemption for repairing “smartphones,”
“home appliances,” and “home systems.” Wiens points out that this could
help users legally fix devices like the permanently bricked Revolv home hub by installing new firmware or software.
It’s legal to repair cars, tractors, and other motorized
land vehicles by modifying the software on your own. (This has been an
issue for some time, with tractor company John Deere in particular
making the fairly ludicrous argument that letting users modify software
on the tractors that they own — even in the name of doing legitimate
repair work — could lead to owners hacking the tractors and using them
to pirate music. Yes, really.)
Lastly, it’s legal for other third parties to do these
kinds of repairs on your behalf — so even if you can’t code your way
into fixing a bricked smart home, it’s not illegal to pay someone who
can to do it for you.
There are still some major aspects of 1201 that remain in
place. The Copyright Office didn’t grant exemptions to section 1201 for
game console repairs — meaning you still can’t replace a busted CD
drive on your Xbox or PS4 on your own, since those parts are locked via
software to the specific console for security reasons.
The ruling is also specific for those specific categories
of smartphones, home appliances, home systems, and motorized land
vehicles — so things that don’t fit in those buckets (like planes or
boats) are still protected by the law and can’t be hacked.
Lastly, and most crucially, the Copyright Office’s ruling
still doesn’t allow trafficking in the software tools to circumvent
these kinds of software locks, even in the name of repair. So you can
develop the tools to repair things yourself, and folks can pay you to do
those repairs for them, but you can’t distribute or sell those tools to
others.
Still, it’s a big win for the gadget repair community,
and one that codifies into law the right for you to fix or hack or
repair the things you bought any way you want, regardless of what the
manufacturer says. And as our devices become ever more reliant on
software, that’s a very good thing.
Also, a link to donate to the library whose books got burned!
lesbianvenom said: Hey so I emailed the library yesterday and the director got back to me today and said if you’d like to make a donation, they’d prefer monetary donations rather than the physical books themselves. They’ve gotten an overwhelming amount of support and they said the library (understandably) can only hold so many books and a lot of ppl have already donated. The director also highly suggested donating to your own local library
She said all checks can be made out to the orange city public library, and their address is 112 Albany Ave SE Orange City, Iowa 51041

TO MOVE TO ARGENTINA SAY A MEMBER OF ZONA LA PLATA SENT YOU THIS INFO TO BECOME A REFUGEE
Heey, this is sweet, but you don’t need to become a refugee to live legally in Argentina if you’re Brazilian! It’s the easiest country to move to for Brazilians and the whole process to obtain a DNI (the Argentinian national identity) takes 90 days and you get a 2 year visa, which you can later turn into a permanent residency visa without much trouble. It’s very affordable, we don’t even need to translate the documents thanks to a bilateral agreement and you don’t have to prove you have a job lined up for you or anything. Unless Brazil leaves the Mercosur, there’s no need to go so far as to ask for refuge if you choose Argentina as your destination.
thank you so much for your addition! reblog this please
