Gen 4: pick one before YOU get mauled to death.
Favorite thing about renaissance faires is that they have fuck all to to with the renaissance. This thang is not about historical anything this is about dressing up like a fairy and watching a joust
As someone who took etiquette lessons, politeness is an incredibly effective tool for disarming bigots. You can either force them to reconsider their words/actions by directly and calmly confronting their behavior (by using the rules of society in your favor), or you can dip entirely while they appear to be in the wrong.
Both options are great.
Because the thing is, when bigots pick fights, they are 100% counting on you to get louder than them. Or meaner. They want you to react emotionally and provide fodder for their 'You're Too Emotionally Immature To Understand' cannon.
What they aren't expecting you to do is say one of the following phrases in a polite, concerned tone:
Are you okay?
That's not the kind of language I was raised to use with others.
Do you need a moment to think on why that wasn't acceptable?
This is no way to engage in intelligent conversation. Please try that again in a kinder tone if you'd like this to continue. (I really like this one because it lets you turn their public-shame rhetoric around)
For those of you who'd are spiteful and/or dealing with Fundamentalists/Evangelicals/generally shitty Christians:
What's happening in your life to cause you this much anger? I can't imagine hurting so badly that I need to hurt other people.
Who taught you it was acceptable to treat other people this way? Certainly not the Jesus I remember.
Whatever happened to 'judge not lest ye be judged'?
If I talked like that in front of my parents or grandparents I would be ashamed.
I think there's something you need to pray on before we try and have this conversation.
And my all time favorite:
"It sounds to me like there are some seriously dark and angry forces at work in your heart."
(Nothing stops a Christian bigot in their tracks faster than implying the Devil is causing their bigotry. But you MUST be calm, polite, and gentle with your tone and wording. It is absolutely fair to twist the rules and play them at their own game, but you gotta play hard.)
TLDR: It's much faster to use etiquette, politeness, and rhetoric reversal when eviscerating idiots online and in person, because they aren't expecting you to weaponize their behaviors back in their direction. Don't get angry, get spitefully polite! :)
I once witnessed a very soft-spoken young Southern man take a hateful older woman’s hands gently in his and say “Sister, I am so sorry that the Devil has carved a home for hatred in your heart. I’ll pray for you.”
It was glorious.
This works with all sorts of inappropriate behavior. I work as the archivist in a public library, so I end up on the reference desk a lot, and sometimes patrons will say or do things that aren't exactly appropriate. When patrons try to hit on me, I put on a teacher voice and calmly ask, "Is that an appropriate question to ask someone at work?" and it shuts them down immediately.
This sort of thing always does the trick.
I get my second ultrasound tomorrow to see if my tumor is growing 😌
No it’s more of like a cancer type of thing

Yeah this is exactly what I need…
I have a job interview on Wednesday so I need all the luck I can get
Employment Jelly worked for me and now I work for someone so let him work for you too
Corny enough to reblog, and I need it lmao
So play like a noob? got it
You’re joking, but it actually is a popular theory in chess that a complete noob potentially can beat a master by confusing them - as the noob doesn’t know what they’re doing the master is unable to recognize which of valid strategies they’re pursuing and cannot deploy proper counterstrategy.
Chessmasters when their opponent doesn’t make one of the five approved optimal opening moves:
#used to do shit like this when we fenced#for real tho a newbie is way more of an issue than a master because WHAT are you doing???
I’m currently a fencing coach for a high school club and my least disciplined fencer routinely beats kids who have been fencing for 5-6 years because he’s just so unpredictable and messy that his opponents have no idea what to do.
I know what a master is doing, I just may not be faster than them. I know I’m faster than a newbie but hey what the fuck is happening?
I have, on rare occasions, won pokemon battles like this. I have no idea what the meta is, and just slap things together that sound cool. It’s fun when you win by taking someone completely off guard because “Who would run that?!” Idk man, the noob that just kicked your ass. I’m not smart enough for all these mind games that go into serious competitive pokemon, but I do know big laser go pew.
It’s actually really important to be able to entertain an idea without accepting it.
It’s also important to understand that our thoughts don’t always reflect our beliefs, and that’s normal. Being able to consider things, whether they fit within our morality or not, is actually a critical part of the brain’s function.
The day I learned that like….a large number of people CANT entertain an idea that they don’t believe was…scary. Like lots of people cannot consider “if X was true, what would be the implications” they get stuck at “well, X isn’t true, so I CANT consider the possible implications”
Hmmm…Concerning.
This ties back into a lot of xtian churches people were raised in, as well as that bullshit philosophy that you have to “be careful what you think, or it will become what you say.” Many churches, especially protestant ones, ESPECIALLY Baptist and Evangelical and Megachurches, believe in thoughtcrime as a concept and believe your thoughts can be sinful. If you entertain evil ideas it makes you evil, to them.
It all waters down to a cultural thing and eventually you get a populace that refuses to entertain an idea they do not approve of.
This is why the idea of exploring a plot or trope or couple in concept but not endorsing it IRL is completely foreign to a big subset of people.
Fucking Protestantism.
tumblr allowing titties again is cool and all but are they gonna do anything to un-blur all the accounts that have been blurred for things like titties.
Tumblr isn't doing it themselves, but I was able to get this blog unflagged manually! I went through the process at the end of this page, and in the comment field for the form just put "blog now conforms to new Community Standards," and in about two hours I was unflagged!

[image description: a tweet by user @indigenousAI saying
“fun fact: as a DV survivor i cannot register to vote because doing so makes my address public. anyone who is fleeing or hiding from an abuser is automatically disenfranchised from the political process and this is a feature, not a bug”]
I don’t know of the original poster might not be aware
but!
if you’ve been a victim of domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking, you can enroll into the address confidentiality program (free of cost!) and be registered to vote as an absentee voter and your name and address will not be made available for the public
it is super easy to get enrolled - the application takes like 5 minutes, but it has to be with someone who is certified to do it (most likely an advocate! try going to a family justice center in your area or calling the Attorney Generals office in your area!!!!)
ALSO :
you don’t need to have any police reports or have a protection order to qualify!!! you just have to sign stating that you’ve been a victim of one of the aforementioned crimes.

On the top half, there's five different people who have stitched the video as different fantasy creatures or adventurers sitting in a tavern and singing along to "Soldier, Poet, King" by the Oh Hellos. All of them are in full costume.
On the lower half, a man in modern clothing stares in shock, with the caption "middle aged man who walked through a portal behind a burger king"
End of description]
His shirt reads "Feed Ted Cruz to a bear" btw
He also sings along with the chorus with everyone else, while still looking baffled.
An MRI of all my brain cells
This is 100% my vibe.
TBH the middle-aged guy may be baffled but he still joined in so I think he's just gonna roll with it
Important question: if I wanted to make the most evil looking possible little table altar on a budget, what sorta symbols are we thinking?
Wifi Router.
I’m so scared, what the fuck does this do to you
This sends ADHD folks into either hyper focus or a coma.

To be clear: NYC is absolutely a vortex of special energy but it's not because of the cursed stone tablets it's because of the Italians.
Italians: Fire
Hudson River: Water
Rats: Earth
Air: ???
Air: Spider-Man.
what if every Tumblr user suddenly looses their mouse?
J = Next Post K = Previous Post L = Like N = View Notes Space = Show Photo Shift + R = Reblog Shift + E = Add to Queue Z + Tab = Switch Blogs
THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING.
I just reblogged this with the command, shit
Do you know how much this helps people who have trouble with the mouse? (Me, other disabled people) thank you
Yup, I use these when my hands get particularly weak (like now)
Alt + R is the new command to reblog Alt + Q is the new command to queue
