Tumblr user, in front of you is a Lenovo Thinkpad x230, a business grade laptop with 12.5" screen, dual-core Intel CPU, DDR3 type RAM, year of production 2012. This model is famous for its repairability and potential for hardware modifications. On your blog themed after clowns and indie videogame robots, you have claimed “deep eroticism” to be present in the act of maintenance of computer devices. You have 30 minutes to perform basic maintenance on the device in front of you, disassembling it enough to add the 8GB stick of DDR3 RAM that lies to the left of the device, then to clear the CPU fan with compressed air and replace the thermal paste with the Artic MX-4 that lies to the right of the device. If you fail to do so in time, a giant, heavy, cast steel anvil will be digitally drawn falling from the sky and aiming straight for your precious robot OCs heads. Let the game begin.

that post calling ppl “mentally slow” for using chatgpt was v weird. while i think u should be learning & not getting chatgpt to write ur papers (tbh it’s not even good at writing papers), i get that school is v demanding, esp when u have disabilities and/or a lot else going on. here’s a couple tools to help take off some mental burdens of studying:

goblin.tools -> excellent site full of tools

  • magic to-do: AI breakdown of tasks into sub-steps
  • formalizer: in the name! changes text to formal language
  • judge: can tell u about the tone/subtext of ur writing
  • estimator: judges the length of a task for u
  • compiler: turns a braindump into a to-do list

researchrabbit: input a source u have already found to create connection webs (through citations) to other literatures -> ensures higher relevance in the sources u find vs digging thru ProQuest or JSTOR for hours

connectedpapers: same function as above, however it’s limited to only 2 free articles

in case the hyperlinks break, direct links are below the cut

here’s why vine was and will always be superior to tiktok you can’t really spread a lot of misinfo in 6 seconds you had to go viral on the strength of your humor and not on the allure of insane conspiracy theories or MRA talking points it’s why vines legacy will be shit like “back at it at krispy kreme” and not the downfall of democracy

To be clear I am not denying that vines was superior.

But if you think tiktok is the downfall of democracy you’re either not paying attention or on the WRONG side of tiktok. There are tons of people over there dedicated to making sure the masses have access to accurate information, exposing corruption, and organizing against fascism. Tiktok is not the problem. For every bad actor there’s a good one and as we like to say here at the tumblr dot com: curate your experience.

Reading comprehension quiz (unit 2):

  1. Please summarize the argument of original post in your own words. Is the main point of the post about democracy, or something else? What other issues might the the author be trying to address?
  2. Define hyperbole. Why might the author deploy this rhetorical device here? What features of Tumblr may have encouraged this style of post?
  3. How can algorithms disincentivize or prevent users from fully controlling their experience on social media platforms such as TikTok? How might the architecture of these platforms —including longer-form video options — facilitate radicalization or fringe beliefs? (See Becker, A. (2021, August 24).
