I personally don't understand why kaveh x alhaitham is currently such a popular ship. haitham torments poor kaveh 😭 they're complete opposites and seem to hate each other. wouldn't they just be pure misery together? 😭 they remind me of straight couples. most straight couples I know hate each other and at least one harasses and torments the other and yet they call it "LOVE" and stay together, barely even tolerating each other, and being insanely miserable. it's usually as if they don't posses the self awareness to recognize it 😭 I don't understand why they do that. is that why that's such a popular shipping trope? because people keep doing it irl and think its goals or normal? i think it should stop personally lmao don't do that to yourselves 😭

The one thing I've learned from the whole ai art fiasco is that i genuinely should not give a shit posting art with some flaw in it that I noticed a little too late even if it feels blatant because no one is gonna notice or care

comtent warning descriptive imagery of rabbit deaths death
i hope my old bunny gets euthanized wjen her times is up because it took me forever to recover from the trauma if seeing my other bunny when she died of presumably a heart attack in 2017. she was just lying there. and i had to handle her body so much taking her to her fruitless autopsy and yhen making sure my other bunny had time to come to terms with thr body and i still remember her eyes they were oprn and they got like kind if flat and out of shape and i still remember it and the little black bunny the eye that wasnt being eaten by ants looked like it and i remember her stiff body and it was just like me carrying little blsck bunny to the doorstep i dont want any more i dont want any more of yhose eyes
i used to be really sqyamish but collecting bomes helped with that but if i ever fond a wild rabbit i couldnt. not unless it was really decayed like no fleshy bits at all
i need to catch my old rabbits decilme befire it kills her and i need her to not have a sudden attack i dont want to do it again
i hope the other two rabbits are safer because theyre white. they dont have much to worry about in the way of predators no foces ot coyotes and i dont think the raccoons oposdums or cats will get them if they havent yet so hopefully being visible will make it more likely theyll be safe from cars
i have a white rabbit pelt i bought at ren fest, i intended to swe it into a little doll, but i really need to get rid of it because of the allergies. i wont lie, i contemplated putting it on the road in fron of their house and running it over a few times to strike fear into them. i hopd they learn their lesson. i dont remember if it was the ant rye or the flatter eye i left facing up because i font want to see. but it wouldnt surprise me if they dont see it until the morning when it might not have any

ik you posted that like a month ago but i just wanted to say all internet content is not created by tumblr and 4chan, twitter and tiktok are far more influential
twitter and tiktok "comtent" is just rehashed tumblr content made worse or it's middle class white people repeating the same tweets about normalizing the discombobulated bad vibes or whatever

can i also point out? the jail scene was so fucked up in malignant. why did they smear dirt on those ladies. why were they acting like that in holding? why were the only black ladies so aggressive and mean to Fragile White Lady? why was she attacked by the most stereotypical diesel dyke and black lady in like. 70s clothes ever?? like there were so many problems in malignant other than Poor Gabriel being aeab (assigned evil at birth) and like he seems to genuinely love cops which is always a red flag to me. they did so much like. illegal/immoral shit in that movie and i’m hoping this guy just doesn’t know how cops work or their legal obligations bc he doesn’t seem to have a very realistic take on them anyways but You Know. whatever. he made a cool movie and i’m not paying anything for it that would get back to him so all i’m really doing is advertising his product to like 3 people who are probably also gonna pirate it lol idk i don’t think it’s worth thinking about too deeply for me but it definitely bothers me either way during a few scenes of some of his movies. it’s not like harry potter levels of fucked up comtent/intent/what he’s doing now irl w the money he’s gotten by any means but he does seem to be A Bit Of A Dick.
I'm very much of two minds here because when I first saw the scene my interpretation was the idea of, like, heightened reality. Like, the most obvious and exaggerated visuals to convey "female criminals". Very camp.
But then I think about, like, okay but where did that visual style come from? What are the roots of that?
And a lot of it comes down to whether or not Malignant is actually a horror comedy like it seems so badly to want to be? If the rest of the movies was just Slightly more comedic in tone I think the scene would have more or less functioned fine.
But it literally looks like what the protagonist would be afraid jail is like, instead of any kind of representation of reality.

DWCM Updates?
Okay, friends. I'd love to share some of the Down Will Come Baby script with y'all. So my questions for the tag list (or anyone else with an opinion):
@thegreyboywrites @buckaroowrites @ilfemi @concerningwolves @jennalasby @probsjosh @kaylaevs5162
What would you guys think of a discord server for this? I'm still very on the fence about it but I think I'd feel better sharing it on a controlled server than sending it out to the entire internet. Because I di want to publish it eventually so it would be a real bummer if it got stolen. Not that I expect anyone would do that, it's just those posts about protecting your work have me paranoid.
I might just do watermarks and post here for the same effect, but I don't know how effective those are.
Next question!! For this week, do you guys want to see the beginning of scene one or random bits of dialogue I like?
The discord COULD potentially be used to discuss the plot and characters, but I don't really expect y'all to be *that* invested. Perhaps when the entire script is done, if I do a beta thing? Or a staged reading style event?
Basically, sharing scripts is more complicated and I'm figuring out what works best. Don't worry, guys, I won't use this tag list very often, so you won't be constantly bombarded with stuff like this. This is just an initial "let me figure this out" period. Tha k you for bearing with me, friends. I hope you enjoy the upcoming comtent.

Like on Tumblr yea sometimes awful comtent pops up on your dash when you weren’t even looking for it, and yea people don’t know how to tag shit so even tags that should have kid-friendly content get a lot of NSFW crap in them. And yea the staff is completly incompetant when it comes to banning literal n*zis and pedophiles.
But DA... All you have to do is scroll down once or twice on the home page and you see like 3 or more pieces of fart fetish vore innflation fanart featuring characters with huge anime t i t t y, to characters who are straight up prepubecant children.
Like, I know this is against the rules and regulations of DA but the staff does honestly not give a FUCK about what people post and don’t properly censor. It’s like the wild west out there. There are no laws. There are even people who do commisions for irl porn! Like people pay them real money, and they post porn of themsleves, ON DEVIANTART. Like if you wanna be a sex worker, fine, but a websight meant for posting artwork is not the appropriate place for that. Oh, and if you think the child porn artists are bad on this site... ho-ly shit, wait till you see some of the garbage people post on DA. And like, its not even censored. People will even straight up use it as their icons sometimes! (although to be fair, I’ve also seen people do that a few times here. But it’s def more common on DA)
The staff just lets people do whatever the fuck they want! I can honest to god tell you that I think the only differnce between DA and Tumblr staff is that DA is actually a functioning websight that you can use without having to worry about constant glitching. But as for actually monitoring the users, they’re just as bad as Tumblr staff if not WORSE.

What Is Skimlinks & How to Use Skimlinks to Effortlessly Monetize Your Content
(DON’T hold this against me…  I am [allegedly] too busy and too important to notice things like MONEY… Or too financially scatterbrained…)
A few months ago, I noticed I was getting monthly deposits from a payee I didn’t recognize…
Don’t you wish you had that problem?… 
Well, with Skimlinks, you just might!
Even though I forgot ever adding Skimlinks code to Traffic Generation Café, it never forgot to quietly work in the background and send me an affiliate commission paycheck each and every month – without me lifting a finger.
What, on earth, is Skimlinks?
FULL DISCLOSURE
I DON’T write about making money online. EVER. For various reason.
Yet, I wrote this post. And stand behind it.
What Is Skimlinks?
Skimlinks is a content monetization network that allows you, the content creator, to passively and effortlessly monetize your content.
How does Skimlinks work?
You do what you do best – create content.
Once your content is published, Skimlinks does what Skimlinks does best: turns any product, brand mention, or merchant link into its equivalent affiliate link.
Here’s a quick What Is Skimlinks? overview:
youtube
With Skimlinks, you get instant access to over 24,000 merchant affiliate programs without the hassle of network sign-ups, approvals, or creating affiliate links.
Let me show you how Skimlinks works step by step.
How does Skimlinks work: STEP 1
Add normal product links to your content.
How Skimlinks works: STEP 2
Your links look normal – your readers see exactly where they are going and trust the link.
How does Skimlinks work: STEP 3
Skimlinks automatically turns your links into their equivalent affiliate links on clicked, via a brief redirect to the Skimlinks servers.
How does Skimlinks work: STEP 4
Every time your readers click through a product link that Skimlinks is able to affiliate and make a purchase, you’ll earn a commission on the sale.
How does Skimlinks work: EXAMPLE
Let’s say, I want to mention my favorite Nespresso coffee maker in a post.
I don’t have to log into my Amazon affiliate dashboard and convert that link into an affiliate link – Skimlinks will do all the work for me.
I simply copy and paste the Amazon product link (https://www.amazon.com/Nespresso-Espresso-Machine-Breville-Aeroccino/dp/B01MZCQBY4/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1521489754&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=nespresso+machine&psc=1).
As far as you, the Reader, is concerned, you see an (ugly ) Amazon product link.
However, if you click the link, Skimlinks will automatically code it with my Amazon referral code and, should you end up buying the product, I get the commission.
Pretty sleek!
Skimlinks is free and easy to use. Join and start earning today!
SIGN UP How Much Can You Earn with Skimlinks?
Hmmm….
How much comtent (COMmercial conTENT – content with links to products / retailers) do you write? How compelling is your comtent? Is it click-worthy? How much traffic do you get? How click-happy are your readers?
Take Traffic Generation Café, for instance. Not much comptent here, but even with a few sporadic mentions of merchants and products, I still get some passive income, as you saw from the screenshot above.
If you, however, run a website that lends itself nicely to publishing comptent (COMmercial conTENT)… well, the sky’s the limit!
…Or 75% of the sky, to be more accurate.  Skimlinks keeps the other 25%.
Entirely fair, if you ask me – ESPECIALLY, if you are earning a big fat ZERO without Skimlinks, right?
Let’s take a closer look at your potential earnings with Skimlinks. Or without Skimlinks, I should say.
How much could you earn WITHOUT Skimlinks?
Many publishers ask, “Why use Skimlinks, if I could create affiliate links on my own?”
With Skimlinks, you earn up to 110% of what you would’ve earned if you managed your affiliate links yourself.
And yes, Skimlinks does take 25% of that.
However, with Skimlinks, you have access to Preferred Merchants – merchants who have agreed to pay Skimlinks their cut above and beyond your commissions.
Stick with promoting Preferred Merchants and you’ll maximize your earnings potential.
Plus, you get your foot in the door with many Merchants that wouldn’t give you the time of day without Skimlinks, like Nordstrom, Macy’s, Canon, HP, Sketchers, Target… you name it.
PLUS, the affiliate behemoths like Commission Junction (CJ), ShareASale.com, LinkShare.com are also a part of Skimlinks network.
But wait… you can use Skimlinks on social media!
That’s right – Skimlinks lets you monetize your content on other platforms.
No matter where you post, whether on Facebook, Twitter, or Pinterest, you can use Skimlinks browser extension link shortener to connect your audiences across channels and earn from your product and brand recommendations.
Just one of Skimlinks WOW factors… 
Skimlinks saves time. Time = money.
Let’s face it, you won’t tediously code each and every link you could on your own… not to mention the links you couldn’t since you don’t have access to their affiliate programs!
And even if you do make a bit less with Skimlinks, the amount of time it saves you, plus the automatic addition of affiliate links when you forget, pays for the difference above and beyond.
Skimlinks is free and easy to use. Join and start earning today!
SIGN UP IMPORTANT: Affiliate marketing and disclosures
FTC regulations state,
When there exists a connection between the endorser and the seller of the advertised product which might materially affect the weight or credibility of the endorsement, such connection must be fully disclosed.
Monetizing through affiliate links? Disclose. Disclose. DISCLOSE.
Here is an informative guide from the FTC regarding endorsements.
Since disclosure laws may vary from state to state, country to country, comply with the local disclosure laws from your state/country of residence.
How to Add Skimlinks to Your Site
Once you are an approved Skimlinks publisher, integrating Skimlinks with your site is a breeze.
Your options are:
1.  For any website: JavaScript
Grab JavaScript code (will be given to you by Skimlinks) and paste it into the footer of your site.
That’s what I use at Traffic Generation Café.
2.   For forum owners
If you use vBulletin for your forum, they have a dedicated vBulletin plugin.
3.   For self-hosted WordPress blogs
There’s a plugin for that!
4.   For any other platforms
Skimlinks offers a range of simple implementation guides for everything else in-between, like TypePad, Blogger, Tumblr, and so forth.
5.   For social media
You’ll find out how to use Skimlinks with your social media accounts in your Skimlinks dashboard under “Tools“.
Skimlinks and SEO
Would the oh-so-evil Google punish your website for using affiliate links?
Short ‘n simple: no.
Google is NOT against you making money, trust me.
It just wants to make sure that you:
create websites with original content that adds value for users; choose a product category appropriate for your intended audience; use your website to build community among your users; keep your content updated and relevant.
Per Google:
The more targeted the affiliate program is to your site’s content, the more value it will add and the more likely you will be to rank better in Google search results and make money from the program.
For example, a well-maintained site about hiking in the Alps could consider an affiliate partnership with a supplier who sells hiking books rather than office supplies.
Skimlinks no-no: DON’T try to sell a burger to a vegetarian
How do you make money with Skimlinks without turning off your readers?
With over 24,000 active merchants, it should be a breeze to find the right products for your audience.
However, after observing so many blogs trying to sell a burger to a vegetarian, “common sense” might not be all that common after all.
Here are some (not-so-creative?) ideas to get you going.
1.   Go the ‘DUH’ way
If you are in a cooking niche, look up products under “Food, drink, and dining“.
If you run a mommie blog, you might want to go for “Babies, children, and parenting“.
If your blog is about fashion, go crazy and pick the “Fashion and accessories” category.
Find that common sense and hold on to it, in other words.
2.   Catch’em by surprise
Look for products that your readers might enjoy even though they aren’t exactly in your niche.
Have fun with it and go for curiosity factor.
For instance, this blog has a “Café” in the title for a reason…
So why not allow my readers to kick back and sip that perfect cup of coffee to keep themselves awake while sifting through hundreds of ways to generate traffic to their sites?
Here’s another thought: most of us have a coffee addict in the family or among friends.
How’s this for “Catch’em by surprise”?
***********
Time Release Caffeine Capsules
Sometimes it is fun to drink caffeinated beverages or eat caffeinated candies to stay awake. They are tasty and fun.
But what happens, say, if you have to suddenly fly into space to deal with an alien invasion?
You won’t have time to eat or drink on the flight because you’ll be busy with strategies and counter-xenophobe planning.
Be lucky, then, that you have some Time Release Caffeine Capsules on hand. Just pop one in the morning, and you’re alert for the next 8 hours.
***********
Highly Caffeinated Brownies and Cookies
 And we don’t call them Highly Caffeinated Brownies and Cookies for nothin’!
Each one is loaded with 200mg of caffeine!
The hardest part of these is not eating too many, because they really are that good.
And because they are so tasty, you’ll eat them fast – and that will get the caffeine in your blood with a powerful rush.
Trust us. Get some Highly Caffeinated Brownies and Cookies for a heaping helping of wake up for dessert.
***********
Shower Shock Caffeinated Body Wash
 Some folks like imbibing their caffeine in coffees and sodas and energy drinks.
Others like eating it in candies and mints and “magic” brownies.
But if you ask us, the most enjoyable way to get caffeine into your system is to rub glowing gel all over your body and let it seep into your pores.
And if you just happen to get cleaner in the process, even better!
And tingling (unless you are being electrocuted by mutant eels) is always fun.
***********
Has nothing to do with traffic generation, yet goes with Traffic Generation Café perfectly well, don’t you think?
Skimlinks Marketing Takeaway
No more signing up for a bunch of different affiliate programs.
No more multi-site tracking.
No more wondering if you made any sales you haven’t been paid for.
Skimlinks is free and easy to use. Join and start earning today!

Have fun monetizing your content!

What Is Skimlinks & How to Use Skimlinks to Effortlessly Monetize Your Content
(DON’T hold this against me…  I am [allegedly] too busy and too important to notice things like MONEY… Or too financially scatterbrained…)
A few months ago, I noticed I was getting monthly deposits from a payee I didn’t recognize…
Don’t you wish you had that problem?… 
Well, with Skimlinks, you just might!
Even though I forgot ever adding Skimlinks code to Traffic Generation Café, it never forgot to quietly work in the background and send me an affiliate commission paycheck each and every month – without me lifting a finger.
What, on earth, is Skimlinks?
FULL DISCLOSURE
I DON’T write about making money online. EVER. For various reason.
Yet, I wrote this post. And stand behind it.
What Is Skimlinks?
Skimlinks is a content monetization network that allows you, the content creator, to passively and effortlessly monetize your content.
How does Skimlinks work?
You do what you do best – create content.
Once your content is published, Skimlinks does what Skimlinks does best: turns any product, brand mention, or merchant link into its equivalent affiliate link.
Here’s a quick What Is Skimlinks? overview:
youtube
With Skimlinks, you get instant access to over 24,000 merchant affiliate programs without the hassle of network sign-ups, approvals, or creating affiliate links.
Let me show you how Skimlinks works step by step.
How does Skimlinks work: STEP 1
Add normal product links to your content.
How Skimlinks works: STEP 2
Your links look normal – your readers see exactly where they are going and trust the link.
How does Skimlinks work: STEP 3
Skimlinks automatically turns your links into their equivalent affiliate links on clicked, via a brief redirect to the Skimlinks servers.
How does Skimlinks work: STEP 4
Every time your readers click through a product link that Skimlinks is able to affiliate and make a purchase, you’ll earn a commission on the sale.
How does Skimlinks work: EXAMPLE
Let’s say, I want to mention my favorite Nespresso coffee maker in a post.
I don’t have to log into my Amazon affiliate dashboard and convert that link into an affiliate link – Skimlinks will do all the work for me.
I simply copy and paste the Amazon product link (https://www.amazon.com/Nespresso-Espresso-Machine-Breville-Aeroccino/dp/B01MZCQBY4/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1521489754&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=nespresso+machine&psc=1).
As far as you, the Reader, is concerned, you see an (ugly ) Amazon product link.
However, if you click the link, Skimlinks will automatically code it with my Amazon referral code and, should you end up buying the product, I get the commission.
Pretty sleek!

How Much Can You Earn with Skimlinks?
Hmmm….
How much comtent (COMmercial conTENT – content with links to products / retailers) do you write?
How compelling is your comtent? Is it click-worthy?
How much traffic do you get? How click-happy are your readers?
Take Traffic Generation Café, for instance. Not much comptent here, but even with a few sporadic mentions of merchants and products, I still get some passive income, as you saw from the screenshot above.
If you, however, run a website that lends itself nicely to publishing comptent (COMmercial conTENT)… well, the sky’s the limit!
…Or 75% of the sky, to be more accurate.  Skimlinks keeps the other 25%.
Entirely fair, if you ask me – ESPECIALLY, if you are earning a big fat ZERO without Skimlinks, right?
Let’s take a closer look at your potential earnings with Skimlinks. Or without Skimlinks, I should say.
How much could you earn WITHOUT Skimlinks?
Many publishers ask, “Why use Skimlinks, if I could create affiliate links on my own?”
With Skimlinks, you earn up to 110% of what you would’ve earned if you managed your affiliate links yourself.
And yes, Skimlinks does take 25% of that.
However, with Skimlinks, you have access to Preferred Merchants – merchants who have agreed to pay Skimlinks their cut above and beyond your commissions.
Stick with promoting Preferred Merchants and you’ll maximize your earnings potential.
Plus, you get your foot in the door with many Merchants that wouldn’t give you the time of day without Skimlinks, like Nordstrom, Macy’s, Canon, HP, Sketchers, Target… you name it.
PLUS, the affiliate behemoths like Commission Junction (CJ), ShareASale.com, LinkShare.com are also a part of Skimlinks network.
But wait… you can use Skimlinks on social media!
That’s right – Skimlinks lets you monetize your content on other platforms.
No matter where you post, whether on Facebook, Twitter, or Pinterest, you can use Skimlinks browser extension link shortener to connect your audiences across channels and earn from your product and brand recommendations.
Just one of Skimlinks WOW factors… 
Skimlinks saves time. Time = money.
Let’s face it, you won’t tediously code each and every link you could on your own… not to mention the links you couldn’t since you don’t have access to their affiliate programs!
And even if you do make a bit less with Skimlinks, the amount of time it saves you, plus the automatic addition of affiliate links when you forget, pays for the difference above and beyond.

IMPORTANT: Affiliate marketing and disclosures
FTC regulations state,
When there exists a connection between the endorser and the seller of the advertised product which might materially affect the weight or credibility of the endorsement, such connection must be fully disclosed.
Monetizing through affiliate links? Disclose. Disclose. DISCLOSE.
Here is an informative guide from the FTC regarding endorsements.
Since disclosure laws may vary from state to state, country to country, comply with the local disclosure laws from your state/country of residence.
How to Add Skimlinks to Your Site
Once you are an approved Skimlinks publisher, integrating Skimlinks with your site is a breeze.
Your options are:
1.  For any website: JavaScript
Grab JavaScript code (will be given to you by Skimlinks) and paste it into the footer of your site.
That’s what I use at Traffic Generation Café.
2.   For forum owners
If you use vBulletin for your forum, they have a dedicated vBulletin plugin.
3.   For self-hosted WordPress blogs
There’s a plugin for that!
4.   For any other platforms
Skimlinks offers a range of simple implementation guides for everything else in-between, like TypePad, Blogger, Tumblr, and so forth.
5.   For social media
You’ll find out how to use Skimlinks with your social media accounts in your Skimlinks dashboard under “Tools“.
Skimlinks and SEO
Would the oh-so-evil Google punish your website for using affiliate links?
Short ‘n simple: no.
Google is NOT against you making money, trust me.
It just wants to make sure that you:
create websites with original content that adds value for users;
choose a product category appropriate for your intended audience;
use your website to build community among your users;
keep your content updated and relevant.
Per Google:
The more targeted the affiliate program is to your site’s content, the more value it will add and the more likely you will be to rank better in Google search results and make money from the program.
For example, a well-maintained site about hiking in the Alps could consider an affiliate partnership with a supplier who sells hiking books rather than office supplies.
Skimlinks no-no: DON’T try to sell a burger to a vegetarian
How do you make money with Skimlinks without turning off your readers?
With over 24,000 active merchants, it should be a breeze to find the right products for your audience.
However, after observing so many blogs trying to sell a burger to a vegetarian, “common sense” might not be all that common after all.
Here are some (not-so-creative?) ideas to get you going.
1.   Go the ‘DUH’ way
If you are in a cooking niche, look up products under “Food, drink, and dining“.
If you run a mommie blog, you might want to go for “Babies, children, and parenting“.
If your blog is about fashion, go crazy and pick the “Fashion and accessories” category.
Find that common sense and hold on to it, in other words.
2.   Catch’em by surprise
Look for products that your readers might enjoy even though they aren’t exactly in your niche.
Have fun with it and go for curiosity factor.
For instance, this blog has a “Café” in the title for a reason…
So why not allow my readers to kick back and sip that perfect cup of coffee to keep themselves awake while sifting through hundreds of ways to generate traffic to their sites?
Here’s another thought: most of us have a coffee addict in the family or among friends.
How’s this for “Catch’em by surprise”?

Time Release Caffeine Capsules
Sometimes it is fun to drink caffeinated beverages or eat caffeinated candies to stay awake. They are tasty and fun.
But what happens, say, if you have to suddenly fly into space to deal with an alien invasion?
You won’t have time to eat or drink on the flight because you’ll be busy with strategies and counter-xenophobe planning.
Be lucky, then, that you have some Time Release Caffeine Capsules on hand. Just pop one in the morning, and you’re alert for the next 8 hours.
***********
Highly Caffeinated Brownies and Cookies
 And we don’t call them Highly Caffeinated Brownies and Cookies for nothin’!
Each one is loaded with 200mg of caffeine!
The hardest part of these is not eating too many, because they really are that good.
And because they are so tasty, you’ll eat them fast – and that will get the caffeine in your blood with a powerful rush.
Trust us. Get some Highly Caffeinated Brownies and Cookies for a heaping helping of wake up for dessert.
***********
Shower Shock Caffeinated Body Wash
 Some folks like imbibing their caffeine in coffees and sodas and energy drinks.
Others like eating it in candies and mints and “magic” brownies.
But if you ask us, the most enjoyable way to get caffeine into your system is to rub glowing gel all over your body and let it seep into your pores.
And if you just happen to get cleaner in the process, even better!
And tingling (unless you are being electrocuted by mutant eels) is always fun.
