google search: bug with orange stripes on it

results: do animals like oranges? here’s a list of 10 commonly used bugs in the world. do orange makes stripes go faster? how to get rid of bugs easy pest control. buy oranges cheap

Google has gotten measurably worse over the last few years. It is *so* annoying. The AI-supplied first image result on a normal google search is almost always the wrong species now, which is ridiculous because the correct species shows up in all the other photos. I have reported these errors so often, but so far, no improvement. Until they solve this problem, they are actively contributing to the misinformation crisis. It is really not okay.

one time I had a dream that I unlocked a secret never-before-discovered achievement in Disco Elysium by squeezing into various nooks and crannies and got a special copotype called “Crevice Cop: seek out and inhabit crevices like some kind of man-spider” and I thought yeah!!! man-spider!!! crevice cop!!! this game GETS me!!!

and then I woke up to find that I had fallen partially down into the gap between my partner’s bed and the wall and was horrifically contorted and in agonizing bodily pain from sleeping in a position only comfortable to a brown recluse

#your body: oh hey hey we're falling off the bed can you let them know #your dream brain: you are. a crevice cop.ALT

One time a DM let me play a Venom inspired character where I played the host and my long distance girlfriend played the symbiotic alien. How we did this was set up a discord call where she could hear everything said at the table but I had one head phone in my ear and only I could hear what she was saying and if I wanted to respond I had to speak out loud.

That was fun.

I’m starting to get smile lines.

How lovely to have smiled so often that happiness permanently etches itself into your face

image

How metal to have lived a life where your face now pre-warns people not to fuck with you

image

How resilient to have cared so strongly that empathy is now visibly displayed on your face

How ornithological to have so many corvid friends who love standing on your eyeballs that they’ve left permanent footprints on your face

here’s a little comparison for people who say engagement hasn’t gotten that bad and anyone who complains is ungrateful.

these are two posts from my first go round on tumblr circa 2014-2017, my most popular gifset of all time

& a text post

notice how the ratio is about even on likes to reblogs?

here’s from this go around, my most popular gifset

and my most popular fic

do you see how that’s discouraging?

i love being on this site. i love the little community i’ve found and the people who follow me and the mutuals i’ve made friendships with and the mutuals that i’m still getting to know. i love it. but at a certain point it’s hard to justify spending so much time on works that get bad engagement.

reblog, comment, send asks. without them, this site doesn’t work.

Hello, Mr. Gaiman! I don't know if you'll be able to answer my question, but do you know if actors and writers for commercials are on strike as well? Or are they in a separate union than everyone else on strike?

Asked by spookycicadas

neil-gaiman:

SAG-AFTRA is not on strike against makers of commercials, so you can make them if you are an actor.

Canadian actors are on strike against the makers of commercials and have requested that US actors not cross the picket lines.

A new way to navigate Tumblr

If you use Tumblr on a web browser, you might have noticed us testing a brand new navigation on your dashboard in the last month. Now, after some extensive tweaks, we’ve begun rolling out this new dashboard navigation to everyone using a web browser. Welcome to the new world. It’s very like the old world, just in a different layout.

Why are we doing this? We want it to be as easy as possible for everyone to understand and explore what’s happening on Tumblr—newbies and seasoned travelers alike.

image

Labels over icons: When adding something new to Tumblr in the past, we’d simply add a new icon to our navigation with little further explanation. Turns out no one likes to press a button when they don’t know what it does. So now, where there’s space, the navigation includes text labels. Since adding these, we’ve noticed more of you venturing to previously unexplored corners of Tumblr. Intrepid!

What’s already been fixed? Thanks to feedback from folks during the testing phase, we’ve been able to make some improvements right out of the gate. Those include returning settings subpages (Account, Dashboard, etc.) to the right of the settings page instead of having them in an expandable item in the navigation on the left; fixing some issues with messaging windows on smaller screens; and streamlining the Account section to make it easier to get to your blogs.

What’s next? We’re looking into making a collapsible version of this navigation and improving the use of screen space for those of you with enormous screens. We’re also working on improving access to your account and sideblogs.

That’s all for now, folks. For questions and suggestions, contact Support using the “Feedback” category. Please select the “Report a bug or crash” category on the support form for technical issues. And keep an eye out for more updates here on @changes.

This is terrible. For everyone who wants to unfuck it:
