apparently i, who has never edited wikipedia in my life, nor has ever had any desire to, am blocked from editing wikipedia. my crime, allegedly, is block evasion. my ban will expire in 2027. i did not ask.
oh by the way the wikipedia administrator who banned me for absolutely no discernable reason i can tell did so at 23:19 on christmas day.
apparently he’s from alabama. which would make it early evening in his time zone. like bro go and eat with your family
i’m digging into this because a bitch gotta know and it looks as though my entire remote scottish region, population 40, is banned from editing wikipedia. this is due to “disruptive editing.” i presume that when we moved here the admin gods thought our new connection was an attempt at ban evasion and brought down the hammer mercilessly.
one of my neighbours appears to be in the ban logs arguing his innocence passionately and frequently. i am considering buying one of those baseball caps that says “WIKIPEDIA EDITOR” on it and wearing it on my walks around the local area both as an ironic statement and to potentially flush out drama. perhaps i did ask after all.
firing up my vpn to edit this as an example in the collective punishment article
speaking of volcanology i am at my LIMIT with people thinking that yellowstone is “overdue”. Its not fucking pregnant. if it ever erupts again we’ll have decades if not centuries of warning. whenever theres “increased activity” there it means something vibrated a bit more or something.
and while we’re on it the eruptions happening rn are also not out of the ordinary. what kilauea is doing is not a cause for alarm. volcanoes erupt all the time its a part of our planet I am losing my mind
They aborted the Yellowstone super eruption because of woke
in more pleasant news: this year is seeing the biggest humpback migration in Australian history, bigger than it was PRE whaling. That’s right, there are more humpbacks migrating off the coast of Australia than there were BEFORE industrial whaling started.
A huge, fat W for environmentalists and Greenies. what an achievement
People need both land and water around them to stay sane. There’s something profoundly wrong with the way people turn out when they live on an island with no way in or out other than the sea. People also go insane the opposite way if they live in a landlocked country. When you have both coast and land border, the two cancel each other out.
heartbreaking truth is that nobody on the internet has ever been as funny as the Harry Potter fan (in anno domini two thousand and twenty five!) who messaged me earlier today to yell at me about a post I made nine years ago (whose point I no longer care about defending because I’m not transphobic and am therefore not invested in these books), immediately blocked me, and then went on their own blog and posted a whole rant about me where they referred to me as, and I swear before Jesus Christ and all his wacky apostles I am telling the truth, a “snater”
my favorite thing about the mystery genre is that we all accept the concept of “world famous detective” without hesitation even though that is absolutely not a real category of celebrity

What I find incredible is that Hbomb really isn’t a detective. Like, I mean nothing against him, but he’s basically just following the research bunny. It’s just that he chooses to research things that everyone else takes at face value and keeps stumbling on elaborate webs of lies.
You mean like how a world famous detective would?
“He’s not a detective.”
[Proceeds to simplify and summarise a key part of what a detective’s job is]
i’m sick and tired of people pretending that burger isn’t delicious just to clown on americans. america deserves the ridicule, but why’s burger catching strays? burger did nothing wrong
“I hate when the skeletons on decorations aren’t anatomically accurate.” A Halloween skeleton isn’t the same as what’s inside you, idiot. It’s different. A Halloween skeleton is, like. A guy or something. It’s an animal.
If Halloween skeletons had bones like ours instead of hollow bones like that of a bird, they wouldn’t be able to play their ribcages like xylophones. You sound so fucking uneducated right now.
I made slightly accurate wolf images based on that one post about loners making quotes with wolves and lions when they’re the most famous pack animals ever
Feel free to use, they kinda look crap but it’s okay I saw an actual lone wolf quote in COMIC SANS while trying to find pics for this
My absolute favorite thing about the casting announcement for Jeremy Renner in Knives Out III is that it’s already been established that he exists in this universe, so either he’s playing himself or the writers are setting up the funniest gag of their careers. Personally I’d like to think he’s trying to get Benoit Blanc to sign off on an advertising deal
