okay but please read the letter the founder has left on omegle.com, it is symptomatic of the larger internet breaking down
“The battle for Omegle has been lost, but the war against the Internet rages on. Virtually every online communication service has been subject to the same kinds of attack as Omegle; and while some of them are much larger companies with much greater resources, they all have their breaking point somewhere. I worry that, unless the tide turns soon, the Internet I fell in love with may cease to exist, and in its place, we will have something closer to a souped-up version of TV – focused largely on passive consumption, with much less opportunity for active participation and genuine human connection.”

If you say that Izzy’s death was a beautiful conclusion to his arc, that it was kind. You just. You don’t fucking get it.
You don’t get to say shit like that if you’re able-bodied, and then ignore those of us who are disabled, and who liked Izzy, and are now angry and saddened by his death.
Do you think it was, I don’t know… A humane way of ending things?
Well. If that’s the case then, first of all, I don’t want you anywhere near me. Second of all, I want you to sit with yourself and think, but like really think, about why you think it’s more humane to kill off a physically disabled queer character rather than, I don’t know, let him live out the rest of his life happily, getting more and more accustomed to his disability, overcoming his trauma and enjoying his life to the fullest.
Queerness and disability rarely intersect in media, unlike real life. For a few episodes, Izzy’s arc gave so many of us hope. It was a beautiful, dazzling story of a man who’s been through unimaginable horrors, who was only just starting to overcome his trauma, finding love, acceptance and community.
Do you know how rare it is to witness a story like that? To see yourself in a character, in a way that you’ve never felt seen by media before?
Now, can you imagine how much of a slap in the face it was when he died? And a death that, I might add, wasn’t necessary for anyone’s development, was anticlimactic, cruel, and, perhaps the most importantly, came way too early?
So, you don’t get to tell us that we’re overreacting after Izzy was killed off. You don’t get to do that, because you just don’t get it. We’re hurting, and for a good reason. Because it’s vile, and because if we don’t speak up against it, nobody else will do it for us. You can sit in your own little corner, telling yourself that the season finale was good and satisfying, and that you’re happy with the way it ended if it’s indeed the series finale.
Meanwhile I’ll stay here, thinking about how a beloved, queer, disabled character on a beloved queer show was put down with a gun like a horse with a broken leg.
oh hey btw, apparently tumblr mobile now has an option to report ads for having flashing lights, if you click the three dots in the top right corner it should show up. not sure how long thats been there but i dont remember it being there at least a few months back, i would venture to guess it came with the recent update but shrug. fucking ridiculous that they cant just not put flashing ads in our faces in the first place, but at least this is an option.
people who dont have issues with flashing lights are allowed and encouraged to reblog
Today I learned that the tag “laugh rule” refers to a rule where if you laugh you have to reblog something. Not me being on this site for years and years and thinking that people were making a joke about living under laugh rule the way you would live under, say, mob rule.
I’ve literally used the tag and been thinking to myself “ah yes, laugh rule. where humor is king and the memes you trade are the currency of empire”
why are people so against negative character development? characters don’t need to improve and become better people they can get worse and make mistakes and end up in a worse state than when they began and it’s just as interesting and entertaining as characters developing positively
