A photo portrait of Mr. William Barclay on his twentieth birthday, commissioned by his parents, Mr. Albert Barclay and Mrs. Margaret Barclay. The younger Mr. Barclay was reported to be a "bit miffed" over having to get dressed up and going into town to get his photo taken, and did so begrudgingly at the behest of his parents, who were all too eager to do so.

Absolutely hilarious (incredible) that in the 30 second gap that Alanna Kennedy wasn’t on the field Chelsea finally managed to score. Like imagine knowing you alone are such a good defender that your team can be one (and then two!) players down and the opposition still can’t score until you yourself are off the field for a second

I tend to headcanon that Andy was living with Kyle for a while after Child's Play 2, kind of hopping from place to place. So now I'm imagining baby Andy practicing piano at one of her friends' houses and Kyle buying him a portable keyboard.

A lawsuit filed Wednesday against Meta argues that US law requires the company to let people use unofficial add-ons to gain more control over their social feeds.
It’s the latest in a series of disputes in which the company has tussled with researchers and developers over tools that give users extra privacy options or that collect research data. It could clear the way for researchers to release add-ons that aid research into how the algorithms on social platforms affect their users, and it could give people more control over the algorithms that shape their lives.
The suit was filed by the Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University on behalf of researcher Ethan Zuckerman, an associate professor at the University of Massachusetts—Amherst. It attempts to take a federal law that has generally shielded social networks and use it as a tool forcing transparency.
Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act is best known for allowing social media companies to evade legal liability for content on their platforms. Zuckerman’s suit argues that one of its subsections gives users the right to control how they access the internet, and the tools they use to do so.
“Section 230 (c) (2) (b) is quite explicit about libraries, parents, and others having the ability to control obscene or other unwanted content on the internet,” says Zuckerman. “I actually think that anticipates having control over a social network like Facebook, having this ability to sort of say, ‘We want to be able to opt out of the algorithm.’”
Zuckerman’s suit is aimed at preventing Facebook from blocking a new browser extension for Facebook that he is working on called Unfollow Everything 2.0. It would allow users to easily “unfollow” friends, groups, and pages on the service, meaning that updates from them no longer appear in the user’s newsfeed.
Zuckerman says that this would provide users the power to tune or effectively disable Facebook’s engagement-driven feed. Users can technically do this without the tool, but only by unfollowing each friend, group, and page individually.
There’s good reason to think Meta might make changes to Facebook to block Zuckerman’s tool after it is released. He says he won’t launch it without a ruling on his suit. In 2020, the company argued that the browser Friendly, which had let users search and reorder their Facebook news feeds as well as block ads and trackers, violated its terms of service and the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. In 2021, Meta permanently banned Louis Barclay, a British developer who had created a tool called Unfollow Everything, which Zuckerman’s add-on is named after.
“I still remember the feeling of unfollowing everything for the first time. It was near-miraculous. I had lost nothing, since I could still see my favorite friends and groups by going to them directly,” Barclay wrote for Slate at the time. “But I had gained a staggering amount of control. I was no longer tempted to scroll down an infinite feed of content. The time I spent on Facebook decreased dramatically.”
The same year, Meta kicked off from its platform some New York University researchers who had created a tool that monitored the political ads people saw on Facebook. Zuckerman is adding a feature to Unfollow Everything 2.0 that allows people to donate data from their use of the tool to his research project. He hopes to use the data to investigate whether users of his add-on who cleanse their feeds end up, like Barclay, using Facebook less.
Sophia Cope, staff attorney at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a digital rights group, says that the core parts of Section 230 related to platforms’ liability for content posted by users have been clarified through potentially thousands of cases. But few have specifically dealt with the part of the law Zuckerman’s suit seeks to leverage.
“There isn’t that much case law on that section of the law, so it will be interesting to see how a judge breaks it down,” says Cope. Zuckerman is a member of the EFF’s board of advisers.
John Morris, a principal at the Internet Society, a nonprofit that promotes open development of the internet, says that, to his knowledge, Zuckerman’s strategy “hasn’t been used before, in terms of using Section 230 to grant affirmative rights to users,” noting that a judge would likely take that claim seriously.
Meta has previously suggested that allowing add-ons that modify how people use its services raises security and privacy concerns. But Daphne Keller, director of the Program on Platform Regulation at Stanford's Cyber Policy Center, says that Zuckerman’s tool may be able to fairly push back on such an accusation.“The main problem with tools that give users more control over content moderation on existing platforms often has to do with privacy,” she says. “But if all this does is unfollow specified accounts, I would not expect that problem to arise here."
Even if a tool like Unfollow Everything 2.0 didn’t compromise users’ privacy, Meta might still be able to argue that it violates the company’s terms of service, as it did in Barclay’s case.
“Given Meta’s history, I could see why he would want a preemptive judgment,” says Cope. “He’d be immunized against any civil claim brought against him by Meta.”
And though Zuckerman says he would not be surprised if it takes years for his case to wind its way through the courts, he believes it’s important. “This feels like a particularly compelling case to do at a moment where people are really concerned about the power of algorithms,” he says.

A photo portrait of Miss Agnes Dailey on her nineteenth birthday, commissioned by her aunt Winifred Dailey, 189x. The young Miss Dailey protested being put in such a spotlight but her aunt insisted, saying that she'd "want something to remember this moment by" before she became too old and could no longer rely on her memory.

Finished putting together another Adventure Zone platform fighter moveset, and for an Amnesty character no less! It's the owner and proprietor of Amnesty Lodge, Mama!
Now, Mama's not afraid of getting her hands dirty and makes good use of her shotgun in her standard moves. But for her specials, she calls upon her ability to delegate as her friends come to her aid.
Mama's neutral special summons Barclay, who transforms and delivers a powerful Bigfoot punch before vanishing. Once summoned, Mama can move and act as normal while Barclay does his move. He also blocks some hits and projectiles, but will vanish early if he takes too much damage.
Mama's side special summons the ghostly Moira, who slowly moves forward a good distance, doing some damage to foes she passes through and destroying most projectiles. Like Barclay, Mama can move normally once Moira's summoned, and she will disappear if she takes too many hits.
Mama's down special summons Dani briefly, during which Mama can move normally. If Dani is struck, she lashes with a strong counter before vanishing. The summoning animations for Barclay, Moira, and Dani are all very similar, allowing for some mind games about who she's summoning.
Mama's up special summons Jake Coolice! Jake performs a sick snowboard stunt in a forward arc, taking Mama with him. Mama can hop off at the peak of the jump, allowing Jake to finish the stunt solo before vanishing, or she can ride the whole way down for a little extra damage.
For Mama's finale, the whole stage is temporarily thrust through the Gate to Sylvain. Foes who are hit by the Gate as it rushes past will take a good amount of damage, and all foes will slowly take more damage for as long as they are within Sylvain.

Wednesday Holiday Preference
Tumblr media
Fandom: Wednesday
To everyone who does or does not celebrate, may you have a gentle holiday. And happy Yule ;)
Wednesday Addams: She fondly regales childhood christmases of pouring water on relentless carolers and stoking the fireplace with Pugsley to surely burn 'Old Saint Nick.', Wednesday also enjoys Old World christmas tales, specifically Krampus but tells you about many of the 'lesser known' stories and beings. Her family keeps up with the Victorian tradition of ghost stories for the holiday too.
Enid Sinclair: Super excited! She loves how pretty everything looks and all the beautiful lights! The winter months and all the cute dates to go on, such aesthetic cozy hot chocolate cafe dates watching the snow fall, ice skating, walking by the frozen lake, decorating and festive candles! So many 'cute' "ugly sweaters". She loves all of it and her instagram shows. It's also the best weather for cuddling up with you to stay warm and watch the snow fall.
Ajax Petropolus: He got you a gift months in advance when he was out with you and found the perfect thing, brags to Xavier for weeks how good he is at gift giving. You're gonna love it. 3 days before it occurs to him that he had no gift for you. PANICS texting Xavier that he forgot and is fully bundled about to trek to Jericho on foot in the snow before Xav (a real bro) walks into his closet and brings out the gift,
Xavier Thorpe: Holiday break has always been extra depressing for Xavier, a big empty house and not even an apology in the text that his father wont make it. The thought of being able to spend a time that everyone says is so filled with warmth and joy with you, has him giddier than he knows what to do with.
He really likes going for walks and is captivating staring at you in light snow. Pull him into the snow and get him to make snow angels, he hasn't done that since he was small and is in a fit of joy. Stick a snowball down his jacket After you've both been chilled to the bone go inside to watch some christmas movies, any you want (like Krampus or Elf) and snuggle under a blanket with some hot chocolate. You like baking sugar cookies and having him The Artist decorate them all.
Kent the Siren: Snowball fights! As soon as the first snow starts to cover the ground, Kent has dug out his winter gear and shows up at your dorm with and extra scarf and hat ready to drag you outside. He will not hold back either, but if you act hurt or sad he will come to apologize for the snowball and you ambush him. Never sees it coming. Also snowmen!
Bianca Barclay: She is one of those people that goes berserk buying presents, will have a list of what to get everyone in advance, "You don't even really like Wednesday though?" Bianca, checking her list: "So?" She will weather the worst holiday shopping rush and come out on top (will Siren Song someone into dropping the item she wants or throw hands if needed), somehow she never loses you in the stores even when you're lost, and you go out to a warm cafe afterwards like she didn't have a military scale gift operation before.
Tyler Galpin: Between his job and his dad's tight leash, he doesn't have much free time for cute winter dates, but after work he likes to look at the decorations and shop displays while he walks you home. (If something catches your eye he comes back to buy it as soon as he can.) Weathervane doesn't have a lot of Holiday Specials but he gives you 'complimentary' ones to try and experiments trying to make you little festive drinks when it's slow.

I decree on my birthday there should be nothing but good vibes, so as my gift to you here is:
Pictures found on Andy Barclay’s Phone Part 2 💙
Tumblr media
This is Andy’s favorite photo of the kids and is his Home screen background. He also has it framed on his bed side table, which they absolutely tease him about, but he doesn’t care since he loves them so much.
Tumblr media
Andy snaps this picture on Junior’s birthday- Nica went all out (as she does with all of the kids birthdays) and he was embarrassed and shy about it at first but was so excited when Nica brought out extra chocolate brownies instead of cake for his dessert!
Tumblr media
Nica calls Junior and Jake “Double Trouble” and this is why; this is a typical night when Andy and Nica have said it’s time for bed. The parents pretend to be irritated, but they can’t be mad watching the strong bond the cousins have.
Tumblr media
Nica sent this picture to him (“Say hi to Dad, guys!”) when he was away visiting his Mom and Mike. Andy got emotional, immediately saved it and shared it with his Mom then proceeded to spend the rest of the night talking all about his kids.
Tumblr media
Andy took this while Junior was laughing at something Nica said. He saved it because it was one of the first times he saw a genuine smile on Junior’s, the grief and trauma forgotten for a while. He decides to call this Junior’s “Nica” or “Mom” smile. 😭
Tumblr media
When Nica goes away on a little girl’s trip with Rachel, the kids all miss her horribly. Four days into her trip Andy texts her begging her to FaceTime them for a little bit so the kids will smile. This is their reaction to seeing and checking in on their Mom. 🥺
Tumblr media
Andy thinks there’s nothing cuter than a sleepy Nica. When they go on their first vacation and have a layover at the airport, he can’t help but take this picture of her in his sweatshirt, sleepy but very content from a full day of traveling.
Tumblr media
This photo was sent to Andy after Junior texted him asking where the fire extinguisher was. Andy immediately replied in a panic, but Junior insisted everyone and everything was good and sent this cheeky photo as “proof.”
Tumblr media
When Alice is born, Andy and Nica are surprised how quickly they adapt as a team to life with a newborn. When Andy gets out of the shower and comes back to this sight he can’t help but take a picture…A tear or two might be shed.
*****
There are somehow still many more pictures, so if you want Part 3 let me know!! 🥰

I’ll always be here
Wednesday and Bianca are the couple that everyone knows will be together forever. Everybody wants a relationship like theirs. They got married during Christmas break of their senior year, would’ve been sooner but they wanted to wait until Bianca turned 18. Everyone knows Bianca Barclay- Addams is off limits, everyone except for the new kid Jordan.
Enid, of course, is the one giving the new kid a tour around the school. Enid was going through the “flavors” of outcasts when she was interrupted, “So you have the Fangs, Furs, Ston“ “wait who is that” Jordan asked pointing in the direction of Bianca, Enid looked over “oh That’s Bianca, the fencing captain, and she’s also like the most popular girl here” Enid said, her and Bianca have actually gotten pretty close since she’s married to her best friend.
“I’m gonna go talk to her, see if I can get her number” Jordan said, “oh I wouldn’t do that, if she doesn’t kill you, her wife will.” Jordan laughed “yeah right.” He said, already walking away. He’s a cocky werewolf that doesn’t know any better, but he’s about to find out.
Bianca already isn’t feeling well, her periods always give her hell, she’s siting at the fountain in the quad weaving her hand through the water, waiting on her wife. It’s their senior year and they each only have like two classes, and those are just for personal interests, so when Bianca texted and said she wasn’t feeling well they decided to skip their last class meet in the quad, and go back to their dorm together.
Bianca would really love to be left alone by anyone besides her wife but she tries to be nice anyway, when a boy she’s never seen before walks up to her. “Hey, I’m Jordan” the boy says, holding his hand out, Bianca shakes it nicely, “Bianca” she responds, still trying to be nice, but she can already tell that he’s just trying to flirt with her. “I was wondering if I could get your number, and maybe you can show me around a bit” Bianca gave a fake smile “I’m sure Enid or one of the boys over there would love to give you a tour” she said, trying hard not to roll her eyes, as she got up and started walking away.
“Oh come on, atleast let me get your number” he grabbed her arm to try and stop her from walking away. Some people had already started looking and whispering when he walked up to her and shook her hand. Just as she turned around unhinging her jaws to bring out her shark teeth, Wednesday came up behind him and put a knife to his throat. Enid and Yoko started running towards them, and everyone in the quad was watching. “If you treasure your life I suggest you take your hand off of my wife” Wednesday growled in his ear.
Jordan immediately dropped Bianca’s arm immediately, he honestly thought Enid was joking. Wednesday moved the knife from his neck and pushed him to the side, Enid let out a sigh of relief, she really didn’t want to witness a murder today. Wednesday walked past the now shaking werewolf and went to Bianca who was smiling at her, she loves how protective Wednesday is. ���Hi baby” Wednesday greets her wife as she wraps her arms around Bianca’s waist, “Hi Day” Bianca says leaning in for a soft kiss.
When they finally get back to their dorm Bianca strips until she’s only in her underwear, extra clothes always irritate her on days when she’s cramping really bad. Wednesday got her grandmother to make some oil for Bianca when she found out how bad her periods were. The oil makes Bianca feel cool and warm at the same time and, even though the pain doesn’t go completely away, the oil combined with Wednesday’s hands massaging her soothes the pain well enough for her to fall asleep.
Wednesday changed into some joggers and a tank top, grabbed the oil, and got in bed, sitting against the headboard. Bianca straddled her lap when she finished undressing, she kissed Wednesday, nuzzles her head into Wednesdays neck and closes her eyes. They do this so often that they have a routine down. Wednesday puts some oil on her hands and starts with Bianca’s lower belly first, rubbing and massaging, then she moves to her back, squirting some more oil into her hands before she starts.
Wednesday is soft but firm and Bianca falls asleep within the first 10 minutes, murmuring a soft “I love you” and letting sleep consume her. Wednesday kisses Bianca’s forehead and whispers “I love you too”. She rubs Bianca’s back softly for a while after she’s fallen asleep, and waits till she knows Bianca is in a deep sleep before moving her to lay down and wrapping her in the covers.
Wednesday takes a few hours to get some time in with her typewriter to work on her book, before she decides to cuddle up to her siren, who snuggled into her side. Wednesday woke up to a whimpering Bianca, eyes squeezed shut, tears rolling down her face, and talons out squeezing the sheets. The best thing to do now was to take her to the water. Every few months the siren has instances where the pain gets to a level where it’s almost unbearable, and being in the water is the only thing that helps even a little bit. Nevermore had a pool specifically for sirens, it’s a pretty closed off, cozy space. It’s circular but large, dim blue lights all around it, made out of stone, vines up and down the walls. It gave off cave vibes.
Wednesday hurriedly wrapped Bianca in a blanket and carried her down to the siren pool. She threw the blanket to the side and stepped in, still fully clothed. As soon as Bianca felt the water she dove in. Wednesday sat on the steps and watched as Bianca swam fast, aggressive laps around the pool. It was the only way to let out all of her pain.
Wednesday watched, sitting on the steps of the pool, with a frustrated crinkle in her brow, she hated not being able to do anything about her wife’s pain. Bianca did about a dozen laps before she slowed, swimming to Wednesday, she lay her head on Wednesday’s legs, letting the rest of her body stay in the water. “I’m sorry Day, thank you for being here” Bianca always felt the need to apologize for being in pain or being sick and needing help, her mother always made it seem like she should feel bad for things she couldn’t control, like she was a burden, another thing Wednesday hated.
“Stop apologizing for things you can’t control amor, I’ll always be here” Wednesday said rubbing Bianca’s hair softly. They stay sitting in the water together, Bianca’s tail swaying softly, for a while, just enjoying peaceful silence.
Idk how I really feel about this or if it made sense but I hope you guys liked it🫶🏾
