Ecco the dolphin

I am a time-traveling dolphin. An entity made of giant balls gave me the ability to breathe underwater, but this ability was recently stolen from me by aliens.

Sometimes I turn into a bird.

  • Meta absolutely does not respect robots.txt. they are scraping what I have at around 200 hits / minute.

    I also notice there is some data center somewhere (or multiple) proxying all its requests through residential proxies so I can’t tell who is scraping. They don’t scrape like Meta though. Far slower. These are the stealthy bois using spoofed user agents you mention. Can’t tell who they are, though. How do they get so many residential IPs?

    I have no organic traffic (I am literally just running a crawler tarpit. My page has nothing) so its really obvious that Im watching AI scrappers. My tarpit generates random links that all resolve to the same place so its super obvious its not human. Its also super obvious when two distinct IPs follow the same random word salad link milliseconds apart.






  • I’m a ciswoman but I was raised by wolves so I had to figure out this stuff myself.

    Buy a cheap set of lip liner on Amazon with different colors. (something like this amazon link. I’m not recommending this brand it’s an example)

    Experiment! If you color in your entire lip with lip liner, then put lip stick (or lip tint or lip gloss) on top, it changes the overall color of your lip

    Then when you find something you like you can buy better quality.

    If it came in a bottle with an applicator it’s probably something like lip tint or lip gloss or lip stain.



  • Total public school funding for who? This sounds like an average.

    Wouldn’t a district in a poor area be more reliant on federal $?

    One of my elementary classes growing up was taught out of a trailer because the school couldn’t afford repairs. I grew up in an extremely poor area.

    Edit - wikipedia says in 2010, “The median income for a household in the county was $83,456 and for a family was $97,557. Males had a median income of $63,187 versus $48,750 for females. The per capita income for the county was $38,660. About 3.3% of families and 5.3% of the population were below the poverty line, including 6.9% of those under age 18 and 5.5% of those age 65 or over.[50]”

    They’re probably fine monetarily honestly but who knows.







  • I lived in a town like this (USA). We had no cops and the fire department was volunteer only. I recall a house burning down to the cement foundation over a couple hours, fire dept came by to put out the ruins. No one was hurt.

    Can’t imagine having 2 cops in that town, let alone 50. No money.

    The post office used to be in the same building as the bank (until the bank burnt down). They moved into the lower floor of a house.
