best thing tumblr ever did for me is the term "rotating it in my mind". it's really true that sometimes you think about something real hard but you can't tell what the thoughts are exactly. it's revolutionary stuff, i might even say
sometimes the subject of your thoughts is just in this thing
Ah, there it is!
The TUMBLER!
The tumblr blorbo in the blorbo tumbler.
I think this is just a trend everywhere but I've been very frustrated this week by how much admin work is being outsourced to me as the patient/customer.
My orthodontist tells me I can make an appointment with the surgeon. I call the surgeon. They tell me I need a new referral. I call the orthodontist. They do a referral. I call the surgeon. Referral didn't come through. They tell me about their special unique system we have to use. I call the ortho again and walk them through the referral. I call the surgeon. They say the referral was missing some details so they have to do it again. I call the ortho.
The insurance company calls me about repair shops. I give them the name of the repair shop which I already gave them yesterday. They say they're not in their system but I can use them, but I have to call the repair shop to ask them to contact the insurance company. I call the repair shop and they say the insurance company is supposed to email them.
I feel like at a certain point these constant fetch quests become unreasonable?? Is it too much to expect these groups to communicate with each other instead of making me run back and forth between them???
Made this post and then the new property manager (who started on Monday and only finally emailed us today because I sent a vaguely professionally hostile email to her boss because I hadn't heard anything and was not convinced she existed) asked for a list of open action items which her predecessor should have had but apparently wasn't keeping track of, which I learned when I met her boss and provided her with the list of open action items, which I guess tragically died in a fire in the last 2 weeks since she was sitting at my kitchen table, being menaced by the skull. How many people's jobs am I doing now
The phrase arrived in my head so completely formed and concrete that I couldn’t believe it wasn’t already established in the lexicon, but at
It has a name!!!
an incomplete list of reasons why sex scenes are good, necessary, and a character study, & rarely gratuitous (from a seasoned smut writer and published author)
body image and dysphoria. does this character voluntarily throw their clothes off, do they have to be coaxed, do they enjoy looking in the mirror, are there any areas they refuse to acknowledge? scars? tattoos? what does this say about their past?
what role do they take in the bedroom, and what relationship does it have to the role they take in day to day life?
social/communication skills. how good are they at eye contact, asking their bedmate what they want, are they about verbal communication or body language? what is their body language, is it open or closed off? are they nervously chatty, are their words short and clipped, are they nervously quiet?
touch starvation. how do they react to touch? when's the last time they were touched intimately? how does this touch remind them of their previous encounters with touch, or is this their first time?
glimpses of their education, sexual and otherwise, and the ways this influences their view of the world. what is their understanding of consent? where did they get it from? what do they think of kink vs vanilla? what is their relationship to both?
self esteem. do they take on a role of service in the bedroom because they want to, or because they feel like they have to in order to be worthy, no matter what they really want? how good are they at expressing these thoughts? do they freeze up when their bedmate asks them what they want? do they even know what they want?
how much attention do they want on themselves vs how much are they comfortable with? would they rather the attention was just on their bedmate?
how much guilt, shame, or repression do they have about sex in general? does it feel like a performance, is it true for them? how do they do with being vulnerable with another person, clothes on or off?
how do they feel about submission/domination, about penetration? do they want marks to be left, or do they insist on no trace left behind?
how do they treat their bedmate? loving, rough, tender, gentle, harsh, sadistic, deferring, no matter the scene/dynamic?
what about aftercare? for themself, for their bedmate? do they do it, do they know what it is, how do they do it? do they value it or do they do it just because you're supposed to?
an incomplete list. might add more. sex scenes add SO much value, insight, and development to a character. they are an incredibly intimate and vulnerable setting, which is how the right writer can show readers so much about who this character is in a bedroom setting. it is not gratutious.
my man

numb hands
The fact that one of these moves is significantly more difficult for me than the other two at least tells me which nerve is probably the most fucked up
Tumblr did not “Goncharov” Poob. Poob is Glupp Shittoing Tubi/Pluto/Roku Channel/Hulu/etc.
none of these words are in the bible. or the dictionary, for that matter.
#While this is a joke#For the etymologists out there#Tumblr did not “goncharov” poob#translation: Tumblr is not making a fictitious thing called poob that we insist is real#Poob is glup shittoing (streaming services)#Translation: Poob is now a generic name for whatever streaming platform is out there when you don't feel like naming something specifically
Etymologists are on Tumblr for the same reason Primatologists are out in the jungle: It's where the Monkeys are.

two androgynous beings becoming one.mp4
“It's the most passion that you have without sex,” says Clemons. “Two androgynous beings becoming one. It's love. It's two men—two strong, very virile men—finding that space in life where they can let go enough of their masculinity to feel the passion of love and respect and trust. Friendships are based on those things, and you seal it with a kiss.”

you people can't even boycott chick-fil-a.

Boycott the Eurovision Song Contest 2026
The Eurovision Song Contest financially supports and is supported by Israel and Israeli companies. [Palestinian flag]
Palestinians have been calling for the boycott of the ESC for at least 8 years because it platforms Israel.
Eurovision performers have been protesting Israel's inclusion in the ESC and genocide of Palestinians since 2019. [Photo of a group in black stage outfits holding up a Palestinian flag. Photo of two hugging people turned away from the audience, showing an Israeli and Palestinian flag on the back of their shirts. Photo of a man in white singing into a microphone.]
[Photo of people standing with a banner, reading "Songs and glitter cannot hide homeland being occupied". Photo of people marching with Palestinian flags and a banner "Welcome to Genocide song contest".] Since 2024, major protests against Israel's continued participation in Eurovision occurred.
[Photo collage with three people's faces, followed by a news headline. "Dozens of ex-Eurovision contestants demand exclusion of Israel from contest".]
Past Eurovision performers have spoken out about banning Israel
Current Eurovision National Selections from various countries continue to drop out of the contest due to Isreal's continued participation in 2026
Five countries are boycotting Eurovision 2026 because of Israel's ongoing participation. The Netherlands, Ireland, Iceland, Slovenia, and Spain (one of the big 5!) [The flags of five protesting countries in a row. And a world map of countries where participants are in green, those no longer participating for any reason are in red. And most of the world in grey.]
With the boycott of 5 countries, there are now only 35 Eurovision entries. Barely enough for 2 semi-finals.
[Split screen between ranking of countries with Israel at the top, and people celebrating with an Israeli flag. Screen showing the top 10 ranked countries at the contest in 2022, 2023, and 2024. Thumbnail and title for a YouTube video "How much would it cost to rig Eurovision?"] Israel keeps rigging the public vote, making the results skewed and the contest unenjoyable to watch.
[Photo of a blonde man in a blue jacket with while text floating around his head "harassed by Israeli delegation, disqualified for no reason, filmed by Israeli delegation in dressing room without consent". Photo of a figure on stage in elaborate black geometric costume with similar floating text. "harassed on social media, 'prepare your curses', 'satanic', misgendered".] Israeli broadcasters, participants and teams continue to harass other Eurovision performers/entries.
[Photo featuring text on a blue background. "'October Rain' is an Israeli ballad by the Eurovision contestant Eden Golan, originally intended for the Eurovision Song Contest but was ultimately rejected. After multiple rejections of different versions following a request for lyrical changes, the EBU claimed the song contained references to the October 7th Hamas massacre in Israel, which violated its rules on political neutrality. The EBU later confirmed Israel's participation with the song 'Hurricane' instead of 'October Rain', which went on to qualify in the finals and finished in 5th place, earning the second highest public televote."]
In 2024, Israel's song submission was deemed "too political". Israel's entry was given essentially infinite re-writes to "correct" its political themes. The president of Israel personally intervened to ensure the entry of October Rain/Hurricane was into 2024 ESC "apolitical".
In 2021, Belarus' song submission was deemed "too political". Unlike Israel, Belarus was allowed only 1 attempt at re-writing the song to "correct" its political themes. Unlike Israel, Belarus was banned from the ESC and the EBU for not successfully "correcting" their song submission in one attempt.
[Screen shot of white text on a dark background, "Why does the contest exist? The Eurovision Song Contest is a long running non-political entertainment event, which is designed to bring audiences and countries together." The words "non-political" are underlined in red. And a screen shot from the EBU website, "The EBU Belarusian Member was suspended from the Union in May 2021. The EBU's Russian members were suspended from the Union in May 2022."]
Russia was banned from entering the ESC in 2022 due to "bringing the contest into disrepute"
The ESC claimed that due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, it's ongoing participation in the contest would bring about 'political controversy' which is against the values of the "apolitical" contest
Additionally multiple countries threatened to boycott the song contest if Russia continues to participate
Israel faces similar criticism yet remains un-banned from the competition. The controversy surrounding Israel's occupation of Gaza and violence against Palestinians brings the contest into disrepute. Israel's ongoing participation questions the "apolitical" values of the contest. Multiple countries have threatened to or have boycotted the 2026 ESC due to the ongoing participation of Israel.
Israel continues to break the rules of the ESC. Harassing other participants. Political lyrics. Double standards continue to apply, where Israel's broadcaster and the Israeli delegation are given little to no consequences for things that get other entries/countries expelled from the competition.
Israel financially supports Eurovision. The main sponsor of ESC is Moroccan Oil, an entirely Israeli company.
Israel is socially and financially supported by Eurovision. The ESC provides a positive image and platform for Israel. Promotes tourism. Viewership money goes to Israeli broadcasters.
Israel's genocide of Palestinians and occupation of Gaza should not be supported, even through Eurovision.
Boycott. If not for Palestine, then for the horrible double standards and rule-breaking performed by Israel continually.

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again but it is absolutely an example of civilizational inadequacy that only deaf people know ASL
“oh we shouldn’t teach children this language, it will only come in handy if they [checks notes] ever have to talk in a situation where it’s noisy or they need to be quiet”
My mom learned it because she figured she’ll go deaf when she gets old
My family went holiday SCUBA diving once, and a couple of Deaf guys were in the group. I was really little and I spent most of the briefing overcome with the realization that while the rest of us were going to have regulators in our mouths and be underwater fairly soon, they were going to be able to do all the same stuff and keep talking.
The only reason some form of sign language is not a standard skill is ableism, as far as I can tell.
For anyone interested in learning, Bill Vicars has full lessons of ASL on youtube that were used in my college level classes.
https://www.youtube.com/user/billvicars
and here’s the link to the website he puts in his videos:
https://www.lifeprint.com/
Update: you guys this is an amazing resource for learning asl. Bill Vicars is an incredible teacher. His videos are of him teaching a student in a classroom, using the learned vocabulary to have conversations.
Not only is the conversation format immersive and helpful for learning the grammar, but the students make common mistakes which he corrects, mistakes I wouldn’t have otherwise know I was making.
He also emphasizes learning ASL in the way it’s actually used by the Deaf community and not the rigid structure that some ASL teachers impose in their classrooms
His lesson plans include learning about the Deaf community, which is an important aspect of learning ASL. Knowing how to communicate in ASL without the knowledge of the culture behind it leaves out a lot of nuances and explanations for the way ASL is.
Lastly, his lessons are just a lot of fun to watch. He is patient, entertaining, and funny. This good natured enthusiasm is contagious and learning feels like a privilege and not a chore
And it’s all FREE. Seriously. If you’ve ever wanted to learn ASL
