STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS - Those Old Scientists

Given a longer time frame, I might be able to brute force a solution. But as of now, there is no way to track the Orions.

PSA: bot comments are taking over ao3

The above examples have been provided with the authors' permission to demonstrate what these look like.

Basic rundown:

They are all 3 sentences long

Perfect grammar, capitalization, and punctuation

Like absolutely flawless English teacher-style writing with only a single exclamation mark, ever

No mentions whatsoever of character names, settings, situations, or anything that could be tied to the story

The usernames may be identical to people who exist on ao3, but the name is not clickable, and no profile is associated with it EXCEPT when you directly search for that name. What this means: the comments come from an unregistered (not logged in) reader, bots scrape the site for real usernames, attach that to the comment, and post

Please spread the word about this so authors can filter comments and report them accordingly

There has been some speculation about why this is happening at all, and the best guess is that this is a feature that AI-training story-scraping tools are implementing to try and make their browsing traffic look legitimate

Oh, so twitter is DEAD dead

[daxx04]

friendly reminder for the new twitter refugees:

change your icon/pfp and put something coherent in your blog description or you're going to get blocked bcs people think you're a bot

this site is built around reblogs, so please actually reblog posts(especially art and fics!!)

you can set your likes and follows to private

checkmarks here are a meme and mean nothing

follower counts are private and we like it that way, so get used to not judging people by that metric

drama and discourse is boring, use your blacklist and block button liberally

DON'T CENSOR YOURSELF!! we can swear and say kill and make fun of corporations all we want, and if you tiktok-ify your tags people who have things blacklisted for whatever reason will still see them, and people who want to see that content won't be able to find it!! spell words out normally, you won't get in trouble!!

tumblr live is sketchy as hell and full of fake accounts, if you decide to use it anyway may god have mercy on your soul o7

be nice to the reddit refugees, they're our friends <3

The curse will be broken by True Love's Kiss and it is but also the curse was unravelling from the first night Emma stayed and the clock started to move again, the curse made time stand still and yet Ashley gave birth to her baby when there were no new children in the town ever, David woke from his coma, things changed and time changed and that's because true love isn't just a kiss it's a choice it's actions and consequences it was Emma deciding to stay at the beginning and that's what starting picking the curse apart at the seams from the very start.

Random Captain Swan Scenes [7/?]

I love this thread, it’s sad, but really sums up my feelings.

What we have with her is unique but it's not what I wanted.

When they cut to Emma all I see is a lost little girl hearing that her mother doesn’t want her.

An Analysis of Lana Lang in Smallville

Alright, I’m almost done binging 8 seasons of Smallville, and I finally got to the last episode with Lana Lang in it. And here’s my two cents. Warning: This is not tagged with her name because this is very critical.

The Hoy

This small actual cargo ship or coastal vessel was mentioned in writing by the Dutch as early as 1495 as the Hoey, and was developed by them as a single-masted spritsail rigged ship capable of carrying 60 tons.

A two masted Dutch hoy outward-bound off Scarborough, with a large Dutch lugger heading into harbour, by John Wilson Carmichael 1857 (x) 

An earlier type of a Dutch Hoey in: The Elements and Practice of Rigging And Seamanship, 1794, by David Steel

In the 16th century, however, this small transport ship became a warship for a short time, now with two masts and some heavy guns to defend the coastline. They looked very similar to a cromster in this situation.

The Cromster, 16th century in: The Book of Old Ships, Drawing by Gordon Grant, 1924 (x) A war hoy was smaller and didn’t had these huge stern castle. 

The english discovered this type of ship in the 18th century. Here she had only one mast but was now sloop rigged in the private sector as a cargo and passenger ship from the coast to the large East Indian or Royal Navy ships.

Model of a British Hoy, 1750 (x)

The Royal Navy also had its own hoys in service, which were reinforced in the hull to carry large quantities of water barrels, powder or ballast. Between 1793-94, Admiral Sidney Smith used 19 of them as coastal gun vessels. He had them fitted with one 24-pounder gun and three 32-pounder carronades. They were quite successful but were taken out of service after the Napoleonic Wars as they were no longer needed. And they resumed their usual service.

With the advent of the steamer, the Hoy was slowly but surely withdrawn from general service, but there were some still operating in the early 20th century.
