SILKSONG.

When I'm trying to explain to someone that I think the death penalty is wrong because no government should have the right to legally murder its citizens and they hit me with the "and killing criminals makes you just as bad as the criminals themselves!" (not at all my point) (they think they got what I'm saying) (they think we're on the same wavelength) (we are on different frequencies entirely)

it doesn't matter to cats what kind of bad week you're going through, they'll come into your room and start doing repeated bulldozer attacks on you

saw someone including "Mandate of Heaven" as one of those christian terms tumblr likes to use to sound profound. which i get where you're coming from but t☝️hat one is chinese

the problem with the ‘is social media good for kids / is social media bad for kids’ debate is that there is literally no scientific consensus. the only answer is that it could be good or bad in certain specific situations but the effects and diffuse and it’s impossible to separate beneficial social media from harmful social media because there’s only three apps

i feel like part of the reason you don't see fun fluffy (not in the cute romance sense) silly slice of life style fanfics as much anymore is because peoples standards have gotten way way higher when it comes to fanworks in a way that kind of sucks. People want to read good fanfics and look at good fanart (who doesn't), but there's hardly any room for truly Playing Toys anymore because people get extremely pissy if something isn't in-character enough, which then makes writers of all kinds insecure about their writing, and insecure about posting it, because when they do make something 'bad' it's no longer just a person having fun and writing a fanfic that's not your thing, it becomes a personal affront on The Character You Love So Much. How Could They Do This? Are They Stupid? Can They Even Read? Do They Have Media Literacy? And like. I get it. I'm guilty of feeling the same way sometimes, I think most people are. But we can't have nice things when we're constantly mean to people. Even if indirectly. Everything has to be legitimate and in-character and there's very little wiggle room for being silly and unserious because then it would come off 'innaccurately' and obviously make the author a bumbling idiot with no sense. There's more to it than this for sure but I think the immense pressure of "they would not fucking say that" really weighs people down creatively

we would NOT get the creepypasta mansion nowadays yknow what I'm saying
