big fan of inversions of symbols of power. the leash claims ownership over the one who holds the chain as much as the one who wears it. the one who places the crown upon your head can also take it from you. with age comes experience but with youth the superior physical strength to overpower you. the sword is double-edged and cuts both ways.

this is so rogue but does anyone have the poetry template that went semi-viral on twitter a while back? it was designed for kids but someone gave it to their mother who has dementia and she wrote a really moving poem about her experience.

Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.

If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.

Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.

Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.

I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.

natsu and lucy with their parental issues that run in wildly opposite directions. guy who desperately loved his father and spent a good portion of the series searching for him. girl who ran away from her father and avoided dealing with her complicated feelings about him—until it was too late. guy whose father disappeared in order to protect him. girl whose father came back into her life only because he wanted something from her. guy who never had a mother figure and never felt the need for one, either. girl whose mother was the only loving parental figure she could remember having. You Know.
