Since this has become relevant, I’ll post it.

In case you need to report someone to Twitter for ban evasion, which is against TOS…

· select that they are “being impersonated or shown a deceptive identity”
· from there, select “using a fake identity to mislead people”
· click the button that allows you to add context (this is important!)
· state that they are ban evading, that they have been suspended and provide previous account names
· send the report to Twitter

Under Musk’s Twitter it seems like you will continually have to make these reports to get someone at Twitter to take them seriously enough to do something about them, but the terms of service have not changed substantially since he bought Twitter. As a matter of fact, ban evasion is still a violation of the terms of service even though suspended account holders are supposed to be allowed to petition Twitter for reinstatement of their accounts as long as they did not do something particularly egregious or illegal. Someone who is ban evading off of a suspension is supposed to have all subsequent accounts suspended, but Twitter doesn’t seem to be able to detect these accounts in some instances — for instance, if they’re using a different phone number than was on the account that got suspended (I think this is what people do).

It’s been this way for awhile, but why not post?

Discord lets you choose layouts if you have Nitro! I liked a lot of them but chose to go with this one.

And regarding what I wrote about in my last post: I would go so far as to say that the majority of my hobbies and interests are encapsulated in what I am — or am not — willing to talk about on Discord. (Notice that I’ve joined absolutely no fandom-related servers, and it’s going to stay that way for as long as I use this thing…)

Let’s just say that I am slightly more likely to want to discuss the fact that I do not believe in god, living in the Bible belt, than I am to want to discuss the “meta” of anything that has a fandom and I am fine with that.

I seriously need to come up with subject lines.

So I’ve decided to dye my hair blue. I’ve been wanting to for a really long time, and I finally decided to do it.

I also reinstalled Duolingo on my phone and am going to attempt to get as far as I can — as far as my brain will let me — in French. I took two years of Spanish in high school and didn’t retain it afterward, although living where I do I know enough to introduce myself and ask for basic needs. Truth be told, I didn’t actually retain a lot of what I learned in secondary school aside from the absolute basics (even though I taught myself a lot of things as well, being precocious). That’s one of many reasons that I’ve chosen to homeschool my children. The district that we currently live in leaves a lot to be desired, and they’re actually taken to court quite frequently for not following the IEPs — Individualized Education Program, which is legally binding — and they lose a lot of times in court. But there are other problems with this school district, and public education as well. They only stack on top of each other and get worse, so this is our way of avoiding it.

In about a year or so, I expect my graduating class to plan and have a twenty-year reunion (and wow, does typing that out make me feel old). I didn’t attend the ten-year one and I have absolutely no desire to attend this one or subsequent ones. I hope they save themselves some trouble and just… don’t invite me at all, heh.

And let me tell you, when I was watching Supernatural I never really listened to the end music. My bad.
