Reading Calvin and Hobbes as an adult is a VERY different experience than reading it as a kid.

LOUDER

I think the mentality of "why bother doing something if you're not good at it?" feeds directly into "if you're good at it why aren't you monetizing it?". At its core I really think its about commodifying every last shred of labor and experience.

THIS

Adding that this is literally a huge reason we don’t leave unsolicited criticism on things like fanworks- fanfiction, fanart, fan crafts etc. Because there’s a LOT of people out there who are just doing this for the fun of it. They’re doing it for the same reason people go on walks- to feel good. And receiving crit they didn’t ask for doesn’t feel good.

Someone not responding to you right away does not mean that you’re not important to them. I know it can be hard, but other people are allowed to be busy, or even just not have the energy to respond to you. This doesn’t mean they don’t care about you.

Ahhh but when you see them active on other things?😤

Sometimes people have the energy to be “online” and look at posts or whatever else, but don’t have the energy to reply to people. And that’s really valid.

fucked up some bird tried to steal your car like that

He’s not stealing, he’s robin

I keep accidentally slamming my boyfriend's head with the fridge door, and one of these days it's going to hit hard enough to leave a mark and I'll have a hell of a time explaining how the fuck you do something like that by accident.

How the fuck do you do something like that by accident tho

our apartment is tiny, his computer desk is right next to the fridge, the fridge door opens a full 180 degrees and he is seated right in the danger zone.

I still domt understand how the head is the damaged area but I appreciate the explanation

Questions answered perfectly. Keep a copy in your wallet to show EMTs/police.

4. They look cool as hell

5. They disrupt the de facto surveillance state.

6. THREE NEW RESPIRATORY VIRUSES: Apparently there’s a ton of nasty crap to catch this fall (November 2022), and kids are especially susceptible to the new respiratory viruses going around right now. Let’s not kill the kids m'kay?

7. If it’s cold out, it keeps your face warm

8. I don't have to regulate my facial expressions to come off as "normal" to the general public

Wtf????

Smoove with it too 

This is the kind of shit you see in anime that shows that a certain character is stronger than other characters. 

“Pathetic.  You can’t even hold the bat you dare step to the plate? Have you no respect for the sport?”

Baseball players are to be feared

Reblogging for the last one

^Same for me

They just kept getting progressively more “woah”

much woah

Oh my god this is a lucky universe

every time this post comes around, my favorite part is the “I know it’s the Mets” qualifier at the beginning lmao like how baseball that this zillion note posts starts with “sorry for putting this hellteam on your dash, bUT”

Y’all have no idea how hard I was trying not to laugh in class at that poor bird

They…they just blew up a fucking bird…

I misses this post

the new family drama i’m obsessed with has been the saga of my eight year old cousin trying to understand how our uncle is related to our grandpa and not our grandma. the answer is our grandpa cheated on her with a nurse and had our uncle, but NO ONE wants to explain cheating and adultery to an eight year old so they’ve just been telling him to ask someone else. so far it’s gone my mom -> me -> his mom -> his dad and he still is no closer to an answer. we are very quickly running low on knowledgeable adults and i cannot wait to see where he goes if that trail goes dry

my mom brought up a good point, which is the fact that this kid is heavily religious. was named after a biblical figure and watches bible retellings for fun religious. in his mind he cannot physically comprehend how you can have a child with someone you are not married to, which is a very interesting addition to this case.

i should also add that, when the concept was first brought up to him, he went, “so was grandpa the one pregnant???” and i’m so obsessed with the fact that his brain considered mpreg before literally any other possible explanation
