DO NOT DO THIS!!!

If a website has a paywall, like New York Times, DO NOT use the ctrl+A shortcut then the ctrl+c shortcut as fast as you can because then you may accidentally copy the entire article before the paywall comes up. And definitely don't do ctrl+v into the next google doc or whatever you open because then you will accidentally paste the entire article into a google doc or something!!!! I repeat DO NOT do this because it is piracy which is absolutely totally wrong!!!

Also do NOT append "12ft.io/" before a URL ! Typing an URL like this https://12ft.io/<URL> will redirect to a site that would break the display of the page by removing the paywall !

Honestly it's kind of prohibited to mash CTRL+P before some paywall windows can load in to get a PDF of the article. Really shouldn't be done tbh very dangerous🤷🏿‍♂️ ❌️

You also definitely don’t want to go to https://archive.ph/ and put the URL in even after the paywall loads, because that would both bypass the paywall AND archive the article so it could be referenced if the article later gets stealth edited or memory-holed

Please keep this message moving thanks

Y’all I’m dying

I love this ❤

I am always amused by the big burly dude who clearly intends to give off the tough guy "I am dangerous" vibe. It doesn't work and usually makes them look like an idiot. This gentleman is 100% right, usually the most quiet man in the room is the most dangerous one. Keep an eye on him. He's the thinker and the planner who already knows the exits and has a plan to protect everyone in the room should the need arise.

People think that writing poetry is a romantic thing. And maybe it is, but when I'm not writing about the moonlight in your eyes reflecting on the surface of the lake, or about the lightning in your hair, which you braid as if through your fingers, or about the shape of your hands, capturing the rough waves that I am sometimes... you hate that you will live forever, not under the moonlight, but under the stars and their tiny lights of glory and shame.

Happier, 2024

I don't think many people realize how much they've been turned into a bunch of casually cynical jerks.

Someone may come to their parents and say "I want to write a book" and their parents will say "it's really hard to get published".

Someone might confide in their sibling and say "I want to sell my art on "x" platform" and that sibling will say "do you know how many people you'd be competing with? Do you know how many shops are even on that platform?"

I know a kid who once told his best friend "I think I wanna start a dnd podcast" and the friend was like "do you know what the word "oversaturation" means?"

Personally, I don't know why any of that matters? And even if it did, perhaps your response should be "Do it! Do it and see where it goes!"
