I Feel Like… Anyone Who Tries To Outlaw Abortion Should Be Legally Required To Raise A Parrot

I'm having a pretty good day, but I can definitely relate to this poem.  It's one of my favorites, and it works very well with yesterday's poem. My daily posting for National Poetry Month continues with a total stranger one black day by e. e. cummings.

Is anyone else on PillowFort?  I know I heard about it from someone on Tumblr, but now that I’m able to create an account, I can’t remember whom.  Let me know if you want to connect up there.  My username is the same, and I’ll probably post about as often there as here.

This is kindof weird.  My likes and pictures from my posts and reblogs were on there, but it removed them pretty quickly when I went through the remove page.  @awfulhorrid discovered that it made browser security add-ons (like Privacy Badger) light up with warnings, and they saw some fishy things when they looked at it more closely.  Bleah.

tumblr mirrors on ‘photosugar’

So idk if others have noticed this before - but it’s the first time I’m seeing this, hence the post.

There’s a website, https://www.photosugar.com, which apparently mirrors all pictures, gifsets etc. people post on their tumblrs (and also other social media sites like twitter and instagram, if I understand it correctly). An eample for a tumblr user, with my name: https://www.photosugar.com/tu/lordhellebore

Now it won‘t turn up anything but a 404 error in my case, because I sent an e-mail to the contact address, which is darius@photosugar.com with the title “My content on your website”:

Hello, it’s come to my attention that you are mirroring all of the posts containing pictures/gifs that I post on my tumblr. I am asking you to stop pulling the content from my tumblr and to delete me from your website. tumblr username is „lordhellebore“ Thank you.

I got a reply consisting of the single word “removed” after just one day, and as you can see, it worked perfectly fine with the informal mail I sent. So if you want them to stop mirroring your tumblr, it seems all you really need to to is this.  

I can’t test the site for all of my mutuals, but I’m tagging a few whom I found on there by random trial & error, and I suggest you look yourself up if you see this post and dislike tumblr mirrors (even if this one is only for pictures, not text).

@janiedean, @ladytp, @vaysh11, @lunavagantt, @einemelodieimwind, @robb-greyjoy, @youbuggingme, @ysilme, @rex-luscus, @bai-xue, @viendiletto, @electricalice, @contessa-de-leusse, @memetic-mutism, @bluecichlid, @mrs-storm-andrews, @ladymothwing, @prismatic-bell, @kittykatknits, @tinkili

….basically, whomever I’m trying at random, it seems that you’re on there.

 Please reblog so others can know and ask for removal if they want to.

On Halloween, I’m happy to give candy to trick-or-treaters, regardless of their age, as long as they’re wearing costumes.  I don’t care if they’re little kids, teenagers, babies being carried by their parents, or the parents themselves.  If you come to my door on Halloween in costume, I’ll offer you whatever treats I have.

However, if you don’t have an obvious costume, be prepared to justify what you’re wearing.  This isn’t begging strangers for candy, it’s trick-or-treating -- some sort of costume is required at my house.  Now, if you can come up with a creative explanation of why your costume is a T-shirt and jeans, that’s great!  If your “costume” is “um, uh, I’m a high school student?” then you’re out of luck.  That’s not a costume; that’s your clothes.  I don’t care how old you are, either come up with something to wear or come up with a creative idea -- I’m good either way.

if a teenager is at your door and they are wearing a costume!! please give them candy!! they are still in it for the halloween spirit and it honestly no different from a little kid in a costume. they are just as excited and happy as all the other lil tykes and dont you dare tell them they are “too old for trick-or-treating” because that will literally break their hearts and that’s not cool.

I’m pretty sure I’m going to fail my saving throw on Minority Monsters again.  They’re just so adorable!  I already have the hardcover edition, but the softcover is going to have some updated sections.  It also helps fund an audiobook version, and I know people who could use that.

If you missed out on the hardcover Minority Monsters, consider backing this Kickstarter to get the softcover edition!  How can you resist Queen Ravishment the polyamorous dragon and all the others??

I’m doing a giveaway of 4 MASSIVE monster plushies to celebrate the mini minority monsters book kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/khaoskreator/mini-minority-monsters)

@the-other-sandy, weren’t we just talking about Grapenuts?

Grapenuts

Neither grapes nor nuts.

The closest thing to gravel still considers fit for human consumption.

Possibly a major joke being played on the human race by hamsters.

Woo-hoo!  We need more of this in real life, for all types of denying someone’s identity.

MOGAI peeps protecting MOGAI peeps 2k15

(I would have added more but I ran out of puns)

I guess Mr. Snowflake there needs to just move along from McDonalds.

I can’t even draw straight lines with a ruler.

I am not a straight people.

Reblog if you are also not a straight people.
