I'm a Vietnamese cis woman born and currently living in the U.S. You may know me from Sandwich, from Twitter or Mastodon (same username), or on Twitch as Sharkaeopteryx. I do not have a Discord or Bluesky account.
Ask me about language learning/teaching, cooking/eating food, late diagnosis ADHD, and volunteer small business mentoring. Or don't, I'm not the boss of you.
I think people deserve to be young, make mistakes, and grow without being held to standards they don't know about yet and are still learning. So, if you are under 22, please don't try to strike up a friendship or get involved in discussions on my posts.
Please don't automatically assume I follow/know/co-sign someone just because I reposted something from them—sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Also, if you think being removed as a follower when we're not mutuals is a cardinal sin, please do not follow me.
Yahoo era Tumblr had no idea what to do with the site, and an exec actually told staff internally they were going to make it a next gen PDF, no explanation https://qz.com/708295/yahoos-grand-plan-for-tumblr-was-to-turn-it-into-the-next-generation-pdf
... wow lol
thanks for that. a bit of history we somehow didn't notice as it happened
a tumblr employee at the time actually explained what that meant over on tumblr and in context it's not as baffling. still weird wording, but basically tumblr was going to use a standard yahoo were trying to push that was supposed to be to them as PDF was to adobe
i hope this site allows me to view text on the web. i have been searching for many days and many nights for text on the web.
theres a guy on here whose user is pdf so i think they have to be the one to do it
