#lost the password again

[auroreliis]

Not sure if you'll even see this LMAO. But I love the way you think, so I wanna know your take on Nightwing/Dick Grayson with an antihero. Someone who's constantly swinging between hero and villainy

I love this idea!

The thing with Dick is that he would be so annoying on this:

"Be careful, you'll hurt yourself!"

"I don't want to fight you. I'm doing this for your own good"

"I didn't want to give back ALL the money you stole, but if you do not stop fighting now, I will return the whole lot of it!"

You often find yourself knocked out and tied to a chair by him. In a safe place, of course, he wouldn't want you to get hurt, but man, those chains are thick...how will you get out? (You don't, he comes and frees you when everything has settled and brings you home...)

After his first encounter with you, he'd get Bruce to find out who you are. And then you're in for it...

He'd casually call you by your real name on your next encounter. The smirk on his face merely widening as you look at him confusedly.

"What the hell do you want?"

"So that IS your name? It has a nice ring to it..."

Your eyebrows furrow as he mumbles your name to himself a few more times like a madman. He didn't even notice you slip away.

The panic ensues as he goes around for a bit, trying to find you. He lost you...completely...what an escape artist you are...

And not only the first few times, you manage to slip away every time he even dares to blink. How sneaky of you. He's impressed truly.

However, he does not tolerate it when youngsters like you, with no training, try to act tough. Whether you're a good guy or a bad guy, he will not allow you to fool around anymore. Haven't you got a life? How do you expect to get sleep if you jump around on roofs every night? How immature of you.

And so starts his nagging.

His first thought is bribery. He'll give you whatever you want, as long as you stop fooling around like this, lest you hurt yourself.

If your main interest is material things, this will work. He will give you whatever you want. Whatever your heart desires. Just keep away from Gotham's moonlit streets. Go to bed, watch a film or something else, just please stay inside.

If your primary interest is more adrenaline than anything else, then he will need to get more creative. He will encourage you to seek entertainment through other means. Video games, escape rooms, laser tag, in fact, he will even encourage you to become a hero instead of being on the borderline.

If this doesn't work, he won't give up, it's just that Bruce finds a few holes in the walls of the manor. And Jason notices Dick being more irritable. And Tim, Steph and Cass notice that he doesn't joke around as much. And Damien notices the serious look on his face.

His attempts usually end with this line:

"Being a hero is extremely exhilerating, so why not choose to be good?" (Or, in other words, why not choose to be closer to me?)

Luckily (for you), you chose to come with him. God knows what would've happened if you hadn't...

We should totally have more jl fics where someone is acting ooc and immediately everyone is trying to determine whether they're an imposter or brainwashed or possessed without making it obvious.

Like, a running joke on the tower. Batman makes a sarcastic joke and flash immediately asks him to blink twice if he's under mind control.

Someone starting a sentence with 'Not to be possessed but -'

People calling off sick by saying 'if I come in today that's not me and you should arrest them' and then dragging themselves in to pick up something they accidentally left and everyone takes the mick by saying stuff like 'this isn't you! I believe in you, you can fight this!' when they're grabbing a hoodie from a chair like har har.

Superhero community slang just in general slipping into their civilian lives. Clark says 'before I start I assure you I have not had my will superseded by mister mind' as an ice breaker at a presentation and gets weird and worried looks all night.

It actually ends up helping on several occasions because it's so very very hard to infiltrate an extremely high risk team and then respond in kind without missing a beat when people casually accuse you of being an imposter because you didn't hold your pen the way you normally do. It'd wreck any controlling consciousness' self esteem XD. They've made several shapeshifters cry.

Also the exasperated sighs when you make a suggestion you normally wouldn't and everyone starts squinting at you looking for anything out of the ordinary.

#Ironically it helps security #Even jokingly assuming everyone around you is an imposter does wonders to stop people leaving passwords on sticky notes #Really given the amount of times people have canonically been possesed/mind controlled/replaced it is an actual issue #They just make light of it because that kind of paranoia isn't a healthy way to live and also it's happened so many times it's lost its bit #Gl comes in like 'wonder woman has been dosed into a berserker rage again lol' and everyone rolls their eyes and #Starts to dig up their emergency ropes and nets because like it's the third time this month come on #Jl character centric fics have a lot of people acting out of character and there's a lot less suspicion of mind control or w/ever than #There should be lmao #Given how often it happens #batman #jla #justice league #superman #dc #dc comics #captain marvel #dc flash #wonder woman #green lantern #bruce wayne #clark kent #One time Martian man hunter does a prank where he pretends to be someone else on the watchtower when they're not in the room #By evening everyone's been sighted in at least two locations at the same time and the jl is whipping themselves into a frenzy before he #Reveals himself and gets food thrown at him in revenge XD

I’m so sad, i lost access to my old kairi solo blog 😭

#❧ ⸻ jane speaks . #i wrote her like 4 years ago @ ofsanctum #i still remember the email and password but the problem is #tumblr insists that i reset the password via the email i used for the blog #but i lost access to the email bc microsoft blocked it???? #i am so sad haushauah #also probably some kh mutuals might know me from there #hi again!! ☺️✨🫶

[e-vultures]

*emerges sopping wet and spluttering from a nearby pond absolutely covered in mud and algae and plankton* hi again :)

#HEY it's been a little while #so. hm #well I got on a boat you see #and then actually I did come back like (checks watch) uhhhh two months ago LOL #but I was logged out and simply did not have the strength of spirit to find my password again #also kind of missed putting my phone in my bunk and never looking at it for days and days so was trying to maintain that #but at a certain point I kind of had to admit that was a lost cause because. uh #and I do hesitate to admit this but for the past several months I have in fact been going individually to the blogs of my mutuals #and those I remember following #and reading them like the morning paper #sorry for being strange and abnormal. I'm back now though! #what made me cave you ask Well #......new life series #I am a simple man #ok anyway hi hope everyone's been well #what the hell is my talking tag again #creaking

[rpfisfine]

its like i do realize that ppl on here r allowed to block anyone at any moment for any bullshit reason whatsoever as it generally makes for a cleaner and more pleasant tumblr experience which is fine and im in support of that obvs but i guess it just makes me kind of frustrated that i get blocked for like a pretty objectively silly reason which is writing fanfiction abt real ppl when i regularly scroll the dash and still even now even though i have her blocked come across ppl reblogging posts made by pjharvey/pollyjean who got exposed for being a giant terf like 3 or 4 years ago and there was actual tumblr dm evidence going around of her saying some of the vilest evilest most inexcusable shit abt trans women you could imagine and she is still to this day mutuals with a lot of the big blogs & small tumblr celebrities on here who never even considered blocking or unfollowing her for a second like it really genuinely boggles my mind so often

#i wish for nothing more than to be able to log back into my old blogs again and retrieve the screenshots from my dms #but ive been trying to for multiple years now and i literally dont know how bc ive lost the password and the email #mp #like rpf is not for everyone obviously which is fine but like ok guys if you block me you are kind of required to block her as well

[nofuckingbody]

what I often think about is abandoned blogs .....you never know about the owner, there must be so many blogs who used to run is dead now, became a millionaire, or lost everything while gambling, or is living in the woods far from everyone theyve ever known, or is in jail. there's infinite possibilities of reasons why they aren't active anymore, that makes me go insane

#most of the time is probably how you just grow out of things #but isnt it wild that we will never have an answer unless they show up (and selfishly saying ruin the infinite) #they couldve been hunt or been hunting #killed by a serial killer or started another blog without telling anyone #perhaps they lost the password but perhaps theyre living in the country side of bangladesh perhaps they started a traveling insta account #maybe they become famous or worse tiktok famous and quit their old social medias #WHO KNOWS #maybe they were so busy with daily life they never opened their blog again in years but it still logged on their browser if they remember - #it existed - just like when you find and old diary in your hometown closet you had no idea you had #maybe they found happiness outside of internet #knowing i dont have control and all the answers make me go insane

[kosmic-kore]

umm hi. im back.

#sorry guys #i kinda lost the password for this acc and also forgot it existed #and life is busy #im trying my best #and i want to be more active #but its hard so if i disappear for a while again im sorry #stars posts

#hi friend who watched it with me if you see this <3333 i had a wonderful time i hope u did too #i am not good at articulating my thoughts in the moment but my brain was going BOING BOING BOING the whole time because THE SYMBOLISM.... #(spoilers below be warned) #but the metaphors man. it's all about the metaphors #the colors and the dichotomy gahhhh (the black + white + pinkish-orange) #the blend of traditional medieval and modern in the setting because It Is A Changing Era #the fact that every one of nimona's forms was part of her identity! every time she was shown on screen it was very clearly her! #except in those last few scenes where she had Very Clearly Became What People Wanted To See !!! #and not one individual form could encompass her at all! #the mix of Individual People vs The System driving the story #the whole !!! the whole history being based on something inaccurate and one-sided and the walls literally breaking down. #(the fact that i didn't even notice when the director died lmao. i had to think back just now like 'wait what happened to her again') #the queer solidarity though auhhhh #the whole time at the beginning i was like 'OH IT'S BALLISTER ALMOST BEGINNING TO BE ACCEPTED... BUT NIMONA IS STILL TOO MUCH HMM?' #canonically gay & trans characters but they are a representation as well... #anyways. one of The Movies Ever i think #i am so so happy that it did get made!! and screw di sney for that i guess!!! #yeah. watch nimona i guess #i'm sad i didn't get to watch it through netflix though (my family lost the password). but when i can i just kind of want to loop it #so they know yknow #terra is rambling

TL;DR: Steam just made library sharing so much fucking easier and so much fucking better. Instead of login-trading, it's just a simple goddamn invite.

Read this. Really. It's a good read. Because it shows that, full-stop, Valve isn't just doubling down on their stance to make sure that people can and should be able to share their copies of digital goods as easily as they can physical ones, but they're making it better and easier than ever.

But you know how Steam allowed you to, with either friends or family, link accounts with another person to be able to establish an ability to share game libraries with one another? The general gist of Steam Family Sharing was that, with a limit of five people plus you (six in total) on a limit of ten computers total could share account access to willingly mix your libraries. You could play theirs. They could play yours.

This was a huge boon. It was meant to emulate sharing a physical copy of a game. A way to allow children to play games their parents or siblings had bought without having to fork over double the cash to buy it a second game. But it had some major limitations and drawbacks, and was archaic to use.

If a person did not share the same computer, you had to manually log into that computer to give it and the accounts on it access. This wouldn't be a problem if both accounts were used on the same computer, but many households (and astronomically more family and friend groups) had multiple computers, all used by different people.

If that computer, at any point, was hard reset to any point before the sharing occurred, you lost access. And had to do the whole process again. This was also an issue with computer transfers. The whole kit and kaboodle needed to be redone on upgrades. On top of that, the old computer is now just dead weight that you may not realize you have to manually revoke access to.

Putting your account information on another person's computer opens up security issues. They could, intentionally or accidentally, land themselves on your account if the login information was stored. Which could easily lead to purchases or bans you did not want to happen.

If anyone was, at any point, playing any game on their own library, you had no access to their games. Even if it was a totally different game, you had to wait your turn as if waiting for their computer to be freed up to sit at. (Admittedly this is kind of like the "mom said it's my turn on the xbox" meme, but hey, kinda archaic.)

You could not choose whose library you accessed a game from. Not at all. It always prioritized the first library it gained access from, DLC access and multiplayer be damned. If another friend you were accepting games from had more DLC? Too bad.

And yet here we are. Steam Families Beta fixes EVERYTHING about the above issues. By just going through Settings > Interface > client Beta Participation and clicking onto Steam Families Beta? You get:

No more login sharing. No more computer links. You can now choose which person's library you borrowed from. And you can play any other game from someone's library, even while they're in-game. It just needs to be a different game than what they're playing.

Pick five people. Invite them to your family. And now everyone has access to everyone's library. My goddamn library went from 150-ish to almost a goddamn thousand in ten minutes of setup.

Account sharing and password sharing are dirty words that "lose" billions of dollars. Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, Max. They aren't game storefronts, but they still allow you to access massive libraries and scream like you murdered their firstborns for daring to share your password with your mother after you moved out.

Microsoft tried pushing to demonize and undercut used games sales and borrowed copies of physical games. Remember the first attempt to reveal the Xbox One? People forget, but these vultures tried to make an always online console that checked to see if you were the account that owned the game, even if you had a physical disc, and prevent access to the disc's contents if you weren't the original downloader.

Valve walked the fuck up. Valve tapped the mic. And Valve dropped the fucking thing right onto the ground with one feature's revamp.

About the only issues I can see with this are twofold:

If someone sharing your library gets banned from a game's servers... so do you. No one else in the family does, but the both of you do. This is... rather unpleasant, because banhammers can be dropped quite frequently by mistake. I'd urge Valve to rethink this one, but I see the logic: don't cheat and effectively bite the hand feeding you. Still making me side-eye that, though.

If you leave a family you've joined? You have to wait a YEAR to join a new one. It's to prevent people form jumping ship to another group and screwing over who's in the former one in the process, but a YEAR? OUCH.

Problems aside, though... it's probably the biggest fucking power move I have ever seen a media distributor make in the current economic climate. It's the kind of thing that would let so many new games be available in a way that's easier than ever. Just a few clicks to send or accept an invite, and bam. Permanent access to dozens or even hundreds of new games with so much more freedom than earlier drafts of the system.

It's the kind of thing that slaps you in the face with positivity after so many Ls from the games and media industries. And I'm all the fuck for a W like this.

I hate having an easy to remember/less common first and last name because ill still get people who I don't remember at all trying to add me on like fb who i apparently went to school with at one of the many many schools i went to as a kid/teen but my memory is fuzzy at best and nonexistent at worst when it comes to anything from before i was like 17 so its a big game of

i don't know you

you probably know too much about me and that's very scary to me

i don't want you anywhere near me

#really this is part of why i have so few friends but it just is too much and i would rather eat a rock #using tumblr as a diary again #like you look up my name on fb and there's me and also me but from when i was like 11 and almost immediately lost the password #so i get that im just not hard for them to find but i hate it here #i should change my name to like susan or lily or something/j
