Whenever I see a tumblr medical advice post go around I wonder how you guys managed to invent left wing ivermectin

Do you guys remember when tumblr learned about that one study that found that amphetamine-based ADHD medication didn't get fully absorbed if you took vitamin C supplements within an hour of taking your meds because they interacted in your stomach, and this website went around banging pots and pans together screaming that if you're mentally ill at all that eating an orange would kill you

kitty need blunt NOW

My mom got phished in an EXTREMELY refined scam that pretty much anyone could fall for-- basically her account was already pre-hacked and they spoofed the bank's number exactly, called her pretending there was fraud, and read back legitimate and fake transactions and personal info so she wouldn't suspect they weren't the bank. Then discouraged her from logging in claiming the account was locked so they could investigate the fraud-- all so she wouldnt catch them making massive purchases using her stolen info.

We have the same boss and when she told him what happened he recommended she call the bank directly, so she did and they managed to catch it in time before $20k of transactions went through. Very scary

I guess the lesson here is never ever answer your phone, I love that fraud is so rampant an entire form of mass communication is now useless

ANYONE can fall for phishing scams- my mom is extremely smart and we discuss common scams that target her age demographic and she still fell for this. If it happened to me I may have fallen for it too. Always be careful!

that's EXACTLY what happened to me last spring. it's dire out there....

that’s EXACTLY what

happened to me last spring.

it’s dire out there….

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

If you EVER get ANY call from ANYONE claiming to be a bank or other important group asking you for anything, tell them you will call them back and call them yourself. Do not call a number they give you, look it up yourself.

Banks don't call people, IME. They send emails and texts and put notices on your online account. Credit cards sometimes do I believe, but in that case, just call the number on your card back.

Never take a call from anyone and assume they are who they say. Period. These people are skilled at social manipulation. They will always tell you there is a crisis.

And don't just google the number, use your bank's official site! A lot of search engines are now providing phone numbers of scams instead of legit ones. Also make sure the url of the site matches the one available on cards and other papers you've been given by your bank because fake sites can look VERY convincing.

FYI: the U.S. government will not call you. Is someone calls and says they're the IRS? They're lying. They say they're the sheriff? Lying. ICE? Lying.

The United States will mail you information. If the government needs to reach you, check your mailbox.

The IRS are generally pretty forgiving and will accept that humans make errors. They will never demand immediate payment for back taxes, ever. They know that's not feasible for most people, so they'll usually make a payment plan and help you out. (This is, of course, assuming you're an individual who fucked up their taxes, not someone running a massive tax fraud scheme.)

There’s also a scam going around right now for folks in the USA who use toll roads. NONE of the texts are real, the EZPass website has a huge banner on the site saying they’re all scams.

For no reason, here is Art Spiegelman's 1991 graphic novel Maus, for free on the Internet Archive.

I was reading an interview from two years ago about Maus being banned in a few places and this was in.

Art Spiegelman recognizes that trans people are going to be some of the first targets of bullshit and he’s out there speaking up.

do not. respond to my doylist criticism with a watsonian explanation.

(to translate: Do not respond to my criticism about how the artist wrote/designed the work by explaining the in-universe explanation for it. The author chose the rules that made that explanation happen; they are not bound by these laws.)

like the fact that PrEP and PEP just kinda became a normal part of life one day without fanfare is something I think about a lot. Thousands of people died gruesome horrible deaths and now when I go on Reddit or ride the subway I see dinky little ads like "start this medication today so you don't contract/spread HIV! and if you get accidentally exposed there's a different medication for that to keep yourself from contracting!" and it's just an everyday thing. all those people who died fought for it to be this way.

it is very fun for me to hear about how much you don't want to be fat and would never wanna look like me. also thank you for telling that girl who wanted to gain weight not to i am sure she feels so safe talking to you.

once again i am hearing crickets as i post of fatphobia and remain unsurprised

One thing I have going on as a writer is that I'll have queer Culture so entwined in a story that I'll forget to like, explicitly label my characters' identities. You know. Like well of course my protag's bisexual, look at him

And I will continue doing it that way to be clear. This is what happens when you're not operating under the assumption that everyone is cishet until proven otherwise, including your audience

Mainstream writers have this tendency to pause and explain queerness to the audience in a way that I find tedious and uncomfortable. Personally. & I'm writing indie sci-fi for freaks so we're not gonna do that. Anybody choosing to read this already knows what a they/them is

me and my homies support real artists who put their passion into their pieces instead of a machine who rips off the hard work of talented peeps

i feel like the youth should be reminded that the point of shipping is not for a ship to become canon. the point of shipping is to collect all the canon crumbs like starved mice, run away cackling and make some fun little scenarios with them just for the hell of it.
