PSA: Don't use Open Office

I keep seeing people recommending Open Office as an alternative to Word, and uh... look, it is, technically, an open source alternative to Word. And it can do a lot of what Word can, genuinely! But it is also an abandoned project that hasn't been updated in nine years, and there's an active fork of it which is still receiving updates, and that fork is called LibreOffice, and it's fantastic.

Seriously, if you think that your choices are either "grit your teeth and pay Microsoft for a subscription" or "support free software but have a kind of subpar office suite experience", I guarantee that it's because you're working with outdated information, or outdated software. Most people I know who have used the latest version of LibreOffice prefer it to Word. I even know a handful of people who prefer it to Scrivener.

Open Office was the original project, and so it has the most name recognition, and as far as I can tell, that's really the only reason people are still recommending it. It's kind of like if people were saying "hey, the iPhone 14 isn't your only smart phone option!" but then were only ever recommending the Samsung Galaxy S5 as an alternative. LibreOffice is literally a version of the same exact program as Open Office that's just newer and better – please don't get locked into using a worse tool just because the updated version of the program has a different name!

They knew what they had to do after THE INCIDENT™

i say this every year but tumblr didn’t start doing april fools’ gimmicks until 2014. one year previous, April 1st, 2013, was a certain Incident that i am CONVINCED caused @staff to think “we have to make an april fools’ theme ourselves, because if left to their own devices, they’ll do… That”

Reblogginf this just to say that I am writing it, and I will be posting it when it's complete!!!

So I was thinking about this and can't stop and I need to get it out but what if at the end of behind the mask Taylor can't do it, she just breaks down and realises that she's fallen for him and can't bring herself to harm him because of her feelings for him, she hates him for his actions but she can't bring herself to 'kill' him as it wouldn't just hurt him it would break her, think about how close they get during the movie they obviously have gained feelings for eachother, I might write a longer version of this as a one shot and post it as my own version of the ending of behind the mask

#behind the mask brainrot #behind the mask the rise of leslie vernon #behind the mask #the rise of leslie vernon #taylor x leslie #leslie vernon #taylor gentry #leslie vernon my beloved #hurt no comfort #hurt some comfort #hurt/comfort #i just want them to be happy #i just want them to run away together

if there's one thing we can learn from this booping experience it's that we need to give people notes and interact with them for tumblr to be fun and thriving
