Hey BSKY #destiny2 community.

It’s been a long time since I wrote anything Destiny-related, but I’m going through a lot in my life and needed a way to reprocess it.

Anyway if you are a #Lodi enjoyer, please consider giving this a read 🫶🏻 (it is a reader fic)

Someone please tell me because I am losing my mind but-

I’m CONVINCED that a big inspiration for Lodi was Jackson from Stargate SG-1.

Y’all I did something so unintentionally funny.

I got my inprint poster from Gabriel Flauzino framed and hung and went oh! I have those butterfly shadowboxes my friend made! Let’s frame it out with them!

Friends… I had forgotten one of them has The Sun tarot card in it. #destiny2lodi #lodidestiny2

Lodi’s duolingo score would be absolutely bonkers.

And you just know he and Orin would be in heated competition over the top score.

Oh, hey.

Visa and Mastercard now say you can't pay for WoW. Magic the Gathering. FFXIV. DnD. Lord of the Rings. Because they're all "adult" content against their ToS just for being "fantasy".

Let that sink in.

Spread this like wildfire and have people in those circles call them. No quarter.

Woke up to quite the update on this. I had been in contact with Payment Cloud about getting their service and they waited until now to hit me with the image below. Again, stringing me along instead of being upfront. They had seen my website multiple times before this.

We all share a common enemy.

Abbacchio Joins the Kicking refers to a memorable scene from anime series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure in which character Leone Abbacchio drinks from a glass of wine while observing his gangmates Naranchia Ghirga and Guido Mista beat up a suspected enemy, and then joins in. Online, the scene has been circulated as an object-labeling exploitable.

Mista is the NSFW artist, Naranchia is the SFW artist and the random civilian is the AI artist. Abbacchio is the client/art enjoyer and he eventually Mista and Naranchia in the kicking of the AI-artist.

An illustration from Starfinder; Warframe: Operation: Orias. Arthur and Aoi from Warframe 1999 are fighting back to back against a group of Corpus Crewmen that is surrounding them in an installation that has turned to wreckage. Arthur is wielding his exalted sword while leaning forward and gritting his teeth, making a crewman fall against the snow of Venus. Aoi is using her magnetic powers full of determination in an intense bright green blast defeating another crewmen, whose helmet is getting thrown into the air. The trail of her powers is also changin the trajectory of a bullet than an Eximus is aiming at Arthur, making it describe a curve around her waist and move it towards the unit aiming at Arthur from the left side. A ship is flying over the sunset above them as a drone stays close and trying to shoot at both without avail due to Aoi's powers.

An illustration of Flare and Lizzie from Warframe 1999. Flare is using their first ability, spreading one leg towards the camera and winking an eye with a soft smile while Lizzie casts an equalizer around Flare that displays a little heart in front of their left shoulder pad.
They're performing in an scenario with fire casting light from both sides. Different pride flags are hanging on the upper half of the screen behind them. From left to right: lesbian flag, bisexual flag, transgender flag, gay flag, and the progressive pride flag.

An illustration based on the painting "The Favorite" by John William Godward, but this time the woman playing with a cat with a peacock's father is Ikora. The marble statue sculpted on the bench is as Cayde-6's bust.

A full rendered illustration of Amir Beckett from Warframe 1999. He is doing a backflip like in his gemini skin animation in an Autumn Höllvania setting. He is winking an eye at camera while doing a korean heart sign with his right hand.

Taps the sign. This goes for your online communities too.

I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, "no. get out."

And the dude next to me says, "hey i'm not doing anything, i'm a paying customer." and the bartender reaches under the counter for a bat or something and says, "out. now." and the dude leaves, kind of yelling. And he was dressed in a punk uniform, I noticed

Anyway, I asked what that was about and the bartender was like, "you didn't see his vest but it was all nazi shit. Iron crosses and stuff. You get to recognize them."

And i was like, ohok and he continues.

"you have to nip it in the bud immediately. These guys come in and it's always a nice, polite one. And you serve them because you don't want to cause a scene. And then they become a regular and after awhile they bring a friend. And that dude is cool too.

And then THEY bring friends and the friends bring friends and they stop being cool and then you realize, oh shit, this is a Nazi bar now. And it's too late because they're entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down.

And i was like, 'oh damn.' and he said "yeah, you have to ignore their reasonable arguments because their end goal is to be terrible, awful people."

And then he went back to ignoring me. But I haven't forgotten that at all.

I saw an infographic a couple years ago about how to remove source identifiers from links and why it's important, but I can't find it again and too many people I know are sending me links with them so here's an infographic straight from the oven

Header text: "HEY YOU! YES YOU! TAKE THIS SHIT OUT OF LINKS!"

This is followed by a couple example urls, with a red square highlighting the sections with source identifiers. The rest of the text is as follows:

Source identifiers are used to track your activity on a site. Where you came from, what device you use, and even who you talk to. Whether it's written clearly in the url or tied to a random string of characters, it's assigned to your activity.

When you send a link containing a source identifier to somebody and they click it, it signals to the website that you two are connected. And that data goes right back to the website operators, and thus their advertisers.

Whenever you select "share" or "copy link" on a social app or website, it creates a link like this. If you give even the smallest shit about online privacy, it's important to remove them. Everything after the "?" symbol can be removed without issue, especially sections starting with "si=" or "utm_source="
