Spujb is good people. I appreciate all the content you post.

So in all honesty, I have been adamantly anti Taylor Swift since the moment I learned there was a new pop star, but this is only because I hate all pop stars and anything corporate. I appreciate the reminder to check yourself on misogyny though. That really does slip into our subconscious so easily.

You know what hate brigade I am praying for? Dave fucking Grohl. I cannot think of a more neutral ass corporate shill.

Yes this was my experience with some websites as well until I set up an account with two factor authentication so that I could authenticate my IP properly. Some of these web servers are set up to deny certain IP ranges that can't be cached.

Other trackers may require a set IP for VPNs to work but mullvad doesn't allow static IPs if I recall. The way around this (from my experience with other trackers) is to set up 2 factor auth. I haven't used audiobookbay, but this was my solution for 3 other sites.

Guess they should give up and shut down.

I'm not saying this is what you did in your example, but offering advice when it's not asked for IS DEFINITELY a form of toxic masculinity. That's probably what they were referring to, however I don't know the context and I can't pass judgement.

I will say the tendency to immediately be offended if someone accuses you of something is perfectly natural, and it's an abrasive form of communication and "setting boundaries". However, a mature response is to understand they have this feeling regardless of what you've done, why not figure out why?

Sorry morning rant 💖

That's why you film everything and pull over with your marginalized peers :)

I live in Florida and these opinions are very rare among any major city's population. In fact, I just took a group of kids to an art event at the capital and they drew (in chalk) a trans themed square on the ground just outside of one of the legislative chambers.

Please understand that the south is full of the most brutally progressive people. Everything we do is intentional and FOUGHT for. That is why our politicians try so deeply to oppress us. It's bothering them so much that it's not working.

I got married Monday at a Mexican restaurant. We decided Friday night, bought pawnshop rings on Saturday, and got the certificate on monday morning before work. My cousin is a universal life church minister so he signed it for us and our waiter was witness. As untraditionally romantic as this seems, it was one of the best days of my life.

Last week I got the breast cancer diag, so hopefully this is more positive :)

I've slowly been adapting to this! I love having all my jars, it's like living in a lab with specimens

I used to spend my lunches watching videos on reddit's /r/videos and for yeeeeeeeears they would just post videos of influencers talking about how they're getting fucked by youtube. I rarely go to YouTube, I rarely use most social media I just wanted to waste my 5 to 10 minutes of eating a sandwich and watching a silly video or something, But I suddenly was very knowledgeable about all the stupid YouTube drama and it felt to me like the solution was to go somewhere else, in fact I got so fucking annoyed by these constant bitching about a garbage website that I stopped this lunch tradition entirely (But not before posting a long rant like an old man yelling at a cloud). However if there was an exodus that would also be admitting that these influencers would have to basically start over or hope their followers would follow them. They're tied to their income I guess. I find it pretty despicable but I think that's the reason. These people make a wild amount of money and it's hard to walk away from it out of principle (for them, cause they scared lil b-holes).
