"Canada Post is on track to lose money" Hum. Duh. It cost less than a toonie to send a letter across Canada.

"Canada Post is a service and not a business" was common knowledge until late stage capitalism brain rotted most people into think if it ain't making money for shareholders, it's failing.

Charlie KIrk believed that empathy was a "new concept" that shouldn't exist, so anyone who expresses condolences for him is being VERY disrespectful to his beliefs right now. please keep him out of your thoughts as he begins his transition into worm food. thank you

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="

I haven't maxed out Pulchra's trust rank yet (mercy on my back 😭 its permanently in the game anyways) but I did do her opening trust rank

and I was like "What in the kink talk, Proxy is still right in front of you??" 😭😂

tags:
#pulchra #burnicezzz #purnice #zzzero #ZenlessZoneZero #RaineRillust

A imagining of Pulchra's trust rank event. Burnice leaning close to Pulchra, giving scritches under her chin.

Burnice: If I'd known earlier, I would've come with you and let you tie me up. Imagine me begging the Proxy for help- that would've been priceless!

Pulchra: Forget it. With your acting, you'd blow our cover within the first ten seconds.

At the second panel, Belle is shown between them, flustered at their conversation

Here's a bunch of Frodlodytes I drew! I took suggestions from the folks in Froggy's server, they're super sweet over there!! I like drawing silly goofy mascot characters a lot
#ribbart #vtuber

A bunch of Froglodytes in various circumstances:
- One in a cloak of leaves praying with their hands in front of their mischevious mouth
- A proud frog holding a claw hammer with both hands
- A scottish frog wielding a stick running forward and shouting before tripping over, with a frog playing the bagpipe behind them.
- A frog angrily throwing another frog
- A frog whistling while they fish
- Two frogs engaging in a passionate snog
- A frankenfrog's monster made up of several frogs walking forward with their arms forward and a goofy smile
- Two frogs wearing sunglasses and hats doing the coffin dance
- A cowboy frog attempting to lasso a cow frog and doing a bad job of it, while their partner has accidentally tied themself up next to them.
- Frog Soyjack pointing off into the distance
- In the corner is various doodles I did trying to get used to the Froglodyte's shape, including them swooning, being confused, flexing their muscles, leaning towards the viewer over a table, and wearing a cloak while looking mischevious.

Panel 1: A young Shen is at an old CRT monitor computer, smiling happily. He says "wow, websites are so cool! The internet is SO COOL!"

Panel 2: Young Shen's eyes sparkle and he clasps his hands together and looks up in wonder, saying "I can't wait to see what the internet will be like in the FUTURE!"

Panel 3: Young Shen notices an older Shen coming through a time portal in his room. He's excited to see what news his older self will bring of the internet of the future!

Panel 4: The older Shen shakes his head with a strained facial expression.

Do non English languages have their own version of “deez nuts” jokes? Maybe not quite the same but similar vibe. Would love some examples.

Why do most vtubers still continue to use Twitter? Shit is so vile over there and musk is only getting worse. Many even have bsky accounts but they don’t even use them.

Time to do a mass Twitter exodus already.
