Whatttt is with the tendency of Tumblr users to seek absolution from every single person who offhandedly posts about disagreeing with something they do

I say this not unkindly, but firmly: to function as a member of a social species, you have to get comfortable with the idea that not everyone will like you

mike flanagan should adapt the dream smp next

“it isnt something you have to read critically” well 😭

this technically is true but I think this also perfectly encapsulates why I am inherently distrustful of like. “”cozy”” “turn your brain off” fiction lmfao. like okay WHO gets to turn their brain off and who has to suffer through bigoted caricatures of themselves while everyone else is having cozy silly no brain time 😐

i have understood so many things about online leftist culture by the fact that when i said "your local community has people you will morally and politically disagree with but you cannot lock them out of accessing any tangible service you’re organising" one of the tags responding said "this isn’t about proshippers in here you’re not welcome" like. folks. focus with me. some of us are homeless here.

I explained the concept of "blorbo from my shows" to my 71 year old immigrant grandfather because I referenced it in passing and I thought nothing of it, until today when he said "I think I'll watch peaky blinders tonight and see my blorbo from my shows" referring, of course, to Cillian Murphy playing Tommy Shelby

English isn't his first language so he's not super in touch with modern slang, so I've been accidentally teaching him to talk like a tumblr user. His favorite thing to say lately is "me when I'm a little hater" when he's like talking shit about the neighbor's son

OP are you telling me we got the death of Gică Petrescu before we got gta6

i don’t know anything about the world cup. i looked over and the muppets were there. is that normal

i’m glad miss piggy could fit an appearance at such a niche event into her busy schedule

Ozempic scares the shit out of me. You're telling me there's a drug that takes away both the craving side of hunger and targets the brain's rewards center for eating. You're telling me it takes the joy out of eating and it turns you into a skeleton. Why did we turn The Curse of the Black Pearl into a drug. What the fuck.

so there's a new SCP movie in the works. this is a bad thing because the entire SCP project is licensed under CC BY-SA 3.0, which means that any derivative works based on it (i.e. this movie) have to be released under that same license, and that license explicitly permits no-cost reuploads. like piracy of this movie would be explicitly legal. the only exception would be if they tracked down and got explicit written permission from every collaborator who has ever contributed to any of the stuff they touch on in the movie, but the authors on the site are just as surprised as everyone else, so they didn't do that. the movie is being made by a UAE-owned production company so either they're aware of this issue and are fine with making 0 money on an expensive movie, or they're aware of this issue and are going to attempt some legal bullshit to screw over the writers who wrote 90% of their movie. IP law helps creators btw

i love being me
