✨it‘s probably sarcasm✨

idk if this is a contreversial take or not but i think that the ideal internet experience is being able to remove specific things (triggers, nsfw, gore) if you truly dont want to see them but overall being also shown things you aren’t interested in. i think one of my fave things about tumblr is seeing like 50% of my dash be about fandoms im not in, bands i dont like and quotes from books i dont want to read rather than this endless feedback loop of tiktok showing me ‘exactly what i want to see’ in a trap to keep me online as long as possible and blind to communities outside of my own. i want a mix of curating my own experience and a healthy dose of content i don’t already know i want to see, yknow?

the best analogy imo for ocd is mosquito bite. its so itchy its driving you crazy and you know scratching it will make it itch so much worse later but you need it to stop right now and scratching it feels so good and even when you dont want to scratch it and you feel like you could handle the itch you cant even stop your hand from scratching the second you stop focusing on not scratching. except ☝️ what if it was inside your brain and instead of an itch it was terrifying overwhelming distress

The original Stargate movie amuses me because the writers looked at their glasses-wearing nerd with allergies and went “you need a cute love interest”, and then they looked at their grim, strong-jawed soldier and went “you need an unruly pack of teenage boys who have imprinted on you like baby ducklings despite only being able to communicate with you through mime”, and do you know what? They were 100% correct.

it’s so wild that an employed adult who works for tumblr had such bad judgment that they went on instagram and thought it would be a good idea to share a direct link to an rpf tag where people post explicit omegaverse headcanons about real actual hockey players who have instagram accounts
