Throwback to that time my classmates and I were teaching my English professor some slang and had him convinced that "brink" was slang for bro. He used it 4 times throughout the lecture. He didn't know we were making it up until another class later in the day told him that it wasn't a real slang word. He called everyone his brinks, but he didn't want to be any of ours by the end of the day.

#sorry professor #we love you

DONE. Like DONE! I’ve been fu**ing around with this fic for a year, a freaking YEAR and now it’s done! Fun fact: no ones gonna like it (no, not looking for pity, it’s just too niche. totally fine with that). Fun fact no. 2: as I’ve be editing it so much, I have enough material to write a second version of it (still AU, which is tricky, still very much niche, but I think a lot more readable) and as I’m going to publish them parallel, I still have to wait till I’ve finished that second story.  Who cares. It’s DONE!

Terrible Tolkien pickup lines

Mind the rather dark humour

Denethor: I burn to know you

Glorfindel: you’re so hot that I fell for you the first time we met

Déagol: You stole my breath away

Fingolfin: Seeing you feels like being hit by a hammer

Boromir: I was struck by the arrow of love the moment we met

Maedhros: if you ask for my hand in marriage I’ll give it happily

Turgon: you shook my world to the ground

Elenwë: I froze when I first saw your beauty

Any Fëanorion: I’d kill for you

🤟// What languages do they speak? What language would they like to learn next?

Tatya only knows English, but she is pretty good at it! She just chooses to talk like a Valley Girl, because it suits her more. However, she definitely picked some phrases up from the men who frequent the club and hit on her. She could call you hot in almost every Romance language and a few of the Germanic. She definitely wouldn’t mind learning French or Italian, something often attributed to being attractive or romantic. Tatya would love to shit-talk you in a language you don’t understand.

welp I guess I have to dump my traumatic backstory out in order for my response to this assignment to make sense

#It’s an inventory on professionalism that we’ll use for clinicals eventually as that’s why most people fail #And I kinda have to explain due to a shitty teacher I will involuntary panic and think you’re attacking me personally when giving feedback #I know you aren’t and I’m working on this tho!! #Sorry professor

Accidentally took a nap instead of studying for my midterms, I'm so fucked.

#real life #college #sorry professor #but I'm like in a constant state of exhaustion #let me have this

Intersectionality on the Internet is Coming to a Red Light

Social media has been an integral part of the human experience over the last two decades, and it's not going away any time soon - what can we say? We love our little boxes that let us talk to people all over the world.

But something I've noticed over the last few years is a decrease in intersectionality on social media like Twitter and others - whether it's the algorithm to blame or something else, something has changed.

We're becoming more and more divided.

TikTok is a prime example - many accounts specialize in a certain type of content (ASMR, cats, pranks, ant farms, science, etc) and when something other than the primary category a person follows gets recommended, they'll often comment something along the lines of "How did I end up on _____ TikTok?"

On TikTok, this is harmless for the most part. More traditional social media like Twitter and Tumblr is where the harm comes into play.

We're on Tumblr, so I'll talk about it first. In recent years, the concept of the DNI (Do Not Interact) List has become an integral part of many bios. The concept is that you don't interact with that user if you meet any of the criteria on their DNI List.

DNI Lists can range from the mundane "minors only" for kids on Tumblr to the hyper-specific, usually fandom-based. Something like "DNI if you think X character should be with X character," for example.

It's a similar experience on Twitter, although due to the different media format of Tweets versus blogs it's a bit different. It also has to do with the fact that sites like Twitter and Facebook are primarily algorithm-based. Tumblr's feed is chronological and based only on what a user follows.

Twitter and Facebook use their users' interactions and likes (among other data, but that's a story for another time) to curate a feed for them. Suggested posts are thrown into the feed, with suggested friends and suggested groups and pages. Twitter now even has a "For You" feed which primarily shows the algorithm's suggestions on what it thinks you would interact with.

The problem here should be pretty clear.

The algorithm is killing intersectionality on the Internet by forcing us all into boxes and creating infinite echo chambers.

Only showing things a user is most likely to enjoy is a great idea from a business standpoint. The happier your user is with the content you give them, the longer they stay on your site. Hence, The Algorithm - a complex set of instructions that uses a metric ton of personal data collected by social media companies designed specifically to feed you content you like.

Users will often see themselves being proverbially shoved into a box based on their interactions, making their feeds one-dimensional. I've seen it with my own feeds.

When I first started my professional Twitter in January, I followed a few things and it didn't know what to show me - it started showing me tech news, which I wanted, but it was also blasting politics and local news stories at me, and feeding cultural posts in every once in a while to see if it could box me in with a specific identity.

Three months later, my feed is nothing but tech news. The trending hashtags are nothing but tech. Why? Because tech news is the only thing I interacted with on that account. If I lived in a vacuum, I wouldn't know anything else existed. I wouldn't know that most people don't care about tech as much as I do, because, well, everyone on my feed is talking about it.

So I'm boxed into a profile based on a single aspect of my identity, because that's what The Algorithm thinks I want, thinks will placate me enough to keep using their app. And it's the same for most other users, I'd assume. We aren't shown things outside of our comfort zone, or things others are interacting with (unless it's someone we follow), and as a result intersectionality on the Internet is dwindling.

People on the Internet who often have more in common with each other than they think might never get the chance to interact with each other because of a set of instructions controlling what they see.

It sounds oddly dystopian, and maybe it is. I don't think it was done out of malice or desire for control of the population, but more likely the reckless abandon of morals and ethics by companies in search of fattening their wallets.
