A lot of deep sea creatures are coloured red, but since the colour blends in so well with dark water it just ends up looking black or dark blue.
In short, combined with the horn-like crown, submerged home, and pitchfork/trident, Poseidon is just another name for the Devil.
Facebook is launching a Patreon-like “Fan Subscription” thing and it’s got red flags all over it already.
One part of the terms is that they get a lifelong, transferable license for your content, which persists even if you stop using their service. They can transfer or sub-license it to third parties, and you can’t stop them, because you agree to that when you sign up.
Another is that once they start taking a cut, which they will once this launches officially, they can take up to 30%. For comparison, Patreon takes 5%. So you sign up, you post content, they raise the fee, you decide it’s no longer worth it and stop using it… and they get to keep using your content anyway.
You can read more about it here. But basically, the takeaway seems to be that this is another example of Facebook trying to make their own version of a good thing, and turn it into a worse thing, and sell it to you as the best thing ever. Don’t buy it. Please, please, do your research before you sign up for anything.

Hey guys, just a warning because I feel like this bot is targeting LGBT tagged items. If you get a message like this one, you won’t be able to view the post if you click because it will send you to an endless log in screen or tell you you need to follow the person to see their stuff. It’s a dummy account.
The message is designed to be upsetting so you will want to click it and see the contents.
I was upset enough to click but luckily I was in the app so i knew it didn’t make sense to ask me to log in again. I then looked CLOSELY at the log in page and realized the url is fake. This is a phishing attempt and I don’t want any other lgbt people to be taken in by it. Be careful out there.
so i know that fyre festival is now mostly seen as funny meme of rich kids being scammed but please don’t forget that billy mcfarland hired 200+ Bahamian locals to work grueling hours day and night on the island for weeks with completely unrealistic expectations for this festival and in the end abandoned the island and ran home without paying any of them
so in all seriousness, billy mcfarland is a monster needs to like…….go to jail

human: i don’t know man it just taste good
alien: how could that be possible? they are completely different
human: just try it man its good *hands alien another pretzel with chocolate on the end*
alien: *takes a bite* how....? how did humans find that these went well together? its so illogical
human: opposites are just things that humans like we even have a saying for it “opposites attract”

not liking nuts or salad and being a vegetarian means you means you cant be a real vegetarian. because YA GOTTA ACT LIKE HOW I THINK YA WILL OR YOU CANT BE THAT WAY.
I’ve been holding on to this for a while. In… September? I was having a Really Bad Time. So I ended up making this comic to sort of… sort through some stuff. It really helped.
I hope maybe it can resonate with other people, too.
Reblogs would be very appreciated, so more people can see it <3
