The thing about CrunchyRoll’s enshittification is that normally I’m a big proponent of supporting official channels but if the money from subscriptions isn’t being used to pay talent and labour and the quality suffers as a result, then morally what’s the purpose of supporting those official means?

I know why they didn't do it, but that headline would absolutely CRUSH if they'd deployed an adverbial f-bomb immediately prior to the word "obvious."

Inspired by my latest gpose: It's #wolqotd time!
So we know soul crystals contain the memories of ancient techniques etc. etc. But do they influence your WoL/OC more than just that? More personal memories of their wielders? Feelings from past masters? Just plain weird habits? Tell me about 'em!

A Google software engineer won his battle against MetLife to receive disability benefits for Long Covid.
This is huge
Long Covid has a lot of stigma attached to it and it can be hard to get disability.
You’re told to “try harder”.
It’s “not that bad”.
You can “still work”.
Not everyone can

Anyways, thinking about ship kisses some more. Thinking about sleepy morning kisses. The tired wake up smoochies. The relaxing into restful muah. The stolen smooch when one is in a hurry but needs it while they have a moment. The kiss teased and denied all day until someone gets mad about it.
Yeah
Yeah

this is your reminder that it’s okay for your oc to not suffer.
that’s just as good a story than one filled with conflict and never ending torture.
both is good. one is not better than the other. it is your OCs story. and that’s more than enough.
joy and whimsy is okay. i promise.

Reminder: These are the monsters ruining your lives. Not trans people. Not immigrants. Not Palestinians. Not black people. Not Muslims. Not indigenous people. Not homeless people. Not disabled people.
Palantir CEO laughs about profiting from killing Palestinians using AI.
He calls them 'Hamas' 'useful idiots' and 'mostly terrorists'.
But there is only one terrorist here, and Palantir are war criminals.

"Little storm/eagle" from Yotsuyu, "my hero/champion" from Venat. Arashi is fine with the former but much less so with the latter. Venat knows this and uses her nicknames exclusively to provoke or tease her.
