There was a lot of brainstorming for how to win the strike. Of course, brainstorming when you *collectively* have 4 brain cells is really difficult.

What other ideas do you think they threw out?

If there was a way to run SUPER MEGA AD BLOCKER on this website I fucking would

“Please oh please open up your computer to a porn virus! If you don’t you’re evil!”

Freeloader Comin’ through!

We didn’t start this war internet users have with ads - We might have moaned about banner ads, but it was only when they started making noises when we might be listening to music or a podcast or whatever, causing two sound sorces at once, that we started trying to block ads universally rather than just a specific type of ad (pop ups).

And since then ads have gotten worse - Actual malware rather than merely breaking one of the fundamental sins of web design - though shalt not autoplay anything with sound. And the more aggressive a website is with ‘please turn off adblock’ the less I trust it to bother to vet ads and advertisers to make sure they’re not installing malware.

Not to mention that the idea that avoiding ads is “freeloading” is hilariously backward. Advertisement is a transaction between the platform and the advertiser, the user has no obligation to provide the views/clicks the platform has promised. Using an adblocker isn’t freeloading in the same way that leaving the room to get a snack during a commercial break isn’t cheating the tv network.

Ok y’all, I work as a web developer and I’m here to tell you that you are 100% right and that it’s shit. SO I’m going to tell you how to get around websites that block you from using their website if you’re using an adblocker. 

Every website uses a language called JavaScript; long story short it’s a website language that allows developers to do the crazy shit you see on websites. Now the easiest thing to do is to disable JavaScript to stop them from knowing you have an adblocker:

Oh no! I’m blocked from viewing the website. It would be a terrible shame if I were able to right click and select the “inspect” feature

Click the three dots in the top right and open the “Settings” Menu

And then scrolled down to “Debugger” and checked the “Disable Javascript Option”

And then just refreshed the page

My autistic brother created a new family Christmas tradition

Okay, so last year, my mom bought this Christmas moose that she lovingly named Barry
This is him

Cute, right?

Well, for whatever reason only known to my brother, he decided that he wanted to put Barry in different rooms of our house and it usually scares the shit out of whomever happens upon Barry; usually the person who finds him is the person that my brother wanted to scare.

So far, Barry has been found

On our dining room table

On my dad's side of my parents' bed

In my parents' closet

Outside their bedroom door (at 5 in the morning and scared my mother shitless)

Near the kitchen door

Near my fucking bed

At the bottom of my sister's stairwell

In our bathroom

And down the hallway

This has gone on for 9 days and it doesn't seem to show signs of stopping. Most of the time we know who gets Barry because it's always followed with a very loud "FUCKING BARRY!!!!!"

My brother is the funniest fucking person I know.

Update:

He found his way into my sister's room.

And my brother is cackling maniacally downstairs.

Holy fuck this doll is creepy

Another update:

The soft glow of the Christmas tree seems to quell his bloodlust

vote to replace the evil surveillance Elf on the Shelf with Barry the Chrismoose

Broke: Elf on the Shelf Woke: Moose on the Loose

“On November 6, 2016 during the Newsboys’ Variety Show at Feinstein’s/54 Below in New York City, Dan DeLuca and Joey Barreiro premiered the song “The Truth About The Moon” written by Alan Menken and Jack Feldman. It was revealed that this song was originally written for the 1992 film Newsies for the character Sarah to sing but was later cut. Myself and the undersigned participants agree that the song is most fitting for the character Davey to sing, given the context, and we request that Ben Fankhauser record himself singing the piece so we can finally get the much needed Javid closure.”

Do you ship Spot with anyone? Well tbh, I'm interested in any Newsies ships you like lmao. (Great art btw!)

Avatar

Woof. Where do I begin? I figured to do a whole flow chart to explain it all, and of course, it all revolves around character’s relationships with Spot. I feel like it’s straight forward, but I know my mess isn’t always as clear as I believe it to be, so I’ll explain some of my own thoughts and feel free to send more questions for clarifications!!

So I picture Jack (12) Spot (9) and the DeLanceys (13ish) were all in the refuge together over Christmas when they were young and really bonded and became close. The DeLanceys taught Spot to fight, and he’ll always be begrudgingly thankful for that. Spot also developed the biggest puppy-dog crush on Jack. Jack is charismatic and oblivous so he’s used to people listening to him and fawning over him, so he never learned of Spot’s crush, which disappeared over time, but is still a huge part of the poor kiddo’s past.

The Delancey’s hung around Jack and Spot after their release, which led to hanging around Crutchie too. Oscar fell head over heals for Crutchie, which makes the whole scene where they capture him and send him to the refuge even more angsty. Nobody knows. And ever since the DeLancey’s turned, Jack hasn’t allowed them anywhere near him or his friends, so Oscar just pines from afar.

Okay, what else? Uh... lets see, Race, the precious idiot. Spot developes another crush, but HATES it because of how disasterous his crush on Jack went. But it’s okay, because Race is patient and is a smitten kitten with Spot.

So Spot has done a great job isolating himself and just presenting the “rogue prince of Brooklyn who fights dirty and protects his boys” so most people only see this tough exterior. EXCEPT Darcy. The anxious quiet rich boy. After the riots, Spot and Darcy become inseparable and best friends.

Darcy is of course close with Kath and Bill too! He adores Bill but can’t imagine Bill sharing those feelings. But Bill’s hesitancy MIGHT be due to Spot’s constant threats of castration if he hurts Darcy. Oops. But you can’t blame Spot, because lots of people perv on the innocent lil Darcy, and Spot is used to getting into a lot of fights to protect Darcy’s honor.

OKAY that’s the brief/condensed version of who I ship and why and such. Lemme know what y’all think and if you have anymore questions! Also, hit up @conradricamoras for a great in-depth read on Darcy’s character.

OH And the “respect” arrows towards Spot also double as “Even though he’s the tiniest thing I’ve ever seen, I know he could kick my ass blind-folded and I’m S C A R E D.”
