• being vegan is to avoid causing deliberate needless harm to sentient beings, no matter how different from us they look or think. it is basic morality, like anti-racism. (learn more) •

China's recently commissioned deep-ocean drilling vessel, Meng Xiang, has begun operations in previously unexplored regions, drilling to depths of up to 11,000 meters (36,000 feet) beneath the seafloor. Its mission is to penetrate the Earth's crust and reach the mantle.

Initial scientific drilling campaigns are scheduled to begin in 2025. While the long-term ambition includes attempting to drill through the Earth's crust to the mantle (targeting the Moho discontinuity by 2030, potentially in thin-crust regions of the Pacific or Indian Oceans), the Meng Xiang's capabilities support a comprehensive research agenda. The vessel's capabilities will enable diverse research objectives across key Earth science domains: [...] Biological Exploration: Probing the limits and nature of microbial life within deep subsurface environments, including unique settings like the Mariana Trench.

UM GUYS. I JUST NOTICED A CRAZY ISSUE W THE TUMBLR UPDATE.

YOU CAN SEE THE ICONS OF ANONS SOMETIMES.

The way I was able to recognize several anons in one of my inboxes bc of this error. Oh my god. Guys. This isn’t supposed to happen.

Weighing in to say:

YES, I SEE THIS ON MOBILE. HOWEVER I DO **NOT** THINK IT'S SHOWING THE ANON'S REAL IDENTITY.

The profile pictures I see next to anon asks are profile pictures that belong to other, non-anon asks in my ask box also. Some info

  • there are 14 asks in my inbox from the last ~5 days
  • 9 anons, 5 logged in users
  • ALL 14 show pfps, including the 9 anons
  • ALL THE SHOWN PROFILE PICTURES BELONG TO THE 5 LOGGED IN USERS

I think the bug is the inbox INCORRECTLY attributing anons to neighboring, logged-in asks.

Which is still a bad bug! Considering it makes it look like a long-time follower of mine sent me a spam ask.

And is worse if, say, one of these was anon hate.

But it's NOT the anon's real identity. It's a neighboring ask asker's identity

So if you have anon hate in your inbox that looks like it's attributed to your dear friend, who sends you lovely asks all the time, it was Not them.

CONFIRMED THE BUG IS INCORRECT ATTRIBUTION.

Thanks @thepatchycat for being a test subject. As you can see the icon being attributed to this ask is NOT the patchy cat

The pictured icon belongs to @watchingforcomets who sent me a nice ask about nail polish yesterday which I have not yet answered!
