the oldest reblogs for this post that i can find are from january 2nd of 2013. this can has been getting kicked around tumblr for almost 13½ years now

please be careful with these, they’re antiques

i literally said “even the cop gets in trouble” like, yesterday

I think a super under-talked about aspect of Kieran is that he's genuinely pretty misogynistic. Which is understandable nobody wants to go "yeah my little meow-meow treats the women in his life like garbage" but I'd go so far as to say it's pretty crucial to understanding his character. His ideal self he tries to build in the Indigo Disk falls into a lot of patriarchal archetypes, a man who is strong, respected, idolized, and a leader and provider for the League Club. He tries to override Ogepon's agency in Teal Mask by insisting he be her trainer when she wants to go with the protagonist, assuming he's entitled to Ogerpon simply because he was obsessed with her. This is especially considering he hardly interacted with her the entire dlc, instead choosing to go off training or telling the village about Ogerpon behind her back. Carmine takes a lot of this, too, with Kieran being basically entirely dependent on her to solve all his problems for him and immediately turning on Carmine the instant that isn't the case. Kieran's furious about this up though the very end of the Indigo Disk, even when he had supposedly become more independent himself and had been nothing but awful to Carmine the entire time. All of this goes doubly if the protagonist is a girl. Though, I do also genuinely think it speaks to a lot of personal growth that he takes losing to Nemona in Mochi Mayhem with a lot more grace than we'd previously seen from him and asks how Ogerpon is doing in the clubroom.

Yep! I'd say moreso pre-festival Kieran on the Berdly-isms because Kieran does genuinely reach some pretty egregious incel behavior in regards to how he treats Ogerpon but this is loosely it yeah. He's a sheltered small town kid it's not behaviors he's consciously exhibiting

guess we need to be circulating this psa again. This Is A Fucking Trap. Do Not Participate.

this reads like a video game loading screen

no white gay boy will ever reblog this, watch:

no white gay will reblog this

no white lgb person will reblog this

Without Stonewall, without the efforts of Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera, the LGBTQ Community wouldn’t be where it is today. Don’t forget the roots, don’t forget the catalyst.

And whatever you do, don’t watch that awful movie Stonewall.  Go watch a documentary on Marsha P. Johnson instead.

there’s a wonderful documentary on netflix called the death and life of marsha p. johnson! very powerful watch.

every white person ever should reblog this

why do we never hear about this?

The POC members of our community are the foundation!!!!!!!!

Always up for helping spread some important history

Same, especially when it’s about one of my favorite historical figures

Do not forget the ban waves that occurred in 2016 and again in 2020 that purged large numbers of black users off of the site.

*releases pack of dads into home depot* go……be free

invasive species encroach on lesbian territory

This is a common misconception because they’re such similar environments, but you should be aware that dads are native to Home Depot, while lesbians are actually native to Lowe’s. At this point, however, both dads and lesbians have made themselves at home in both Home Depot and Lowe’s to the point that trying to separate them back into their original ranges would probably do more harm than good to the delicate ecosystem of large chain hardware stores.

As a hardware store worker I can say that this is all 100% accurate.

now how in the FUCK am i supposed to leave tumblr when a god tier post like THIS is just is just waiting for me daily?!?!?!

question where does the “art student” or “DIYer” “crafter” or “soap maker” or “miniaturist“ etc. who has ventured into the store for supplies fall into the ecosystem/what is their impact of said ecosystem?

#in search of taxonomic precision and peaceful coexistence (via welkinalauda)

I do wonder how lesbian/bisexual lumberjack-mimickry fits into this

It Got Better

Is anybody going to address the newly invasive species of BuJo enthusiasts into the craft store/art supply store environment? Why aren’t we talking about the dangerous proliferation of Leuchtturm 1917s and the growing threat of Dotted Moleskins? I had to liberate a Dad from a tangle of washi tape in the art supply store the other day and it wasn’t pretty.

The natural habitat of journalers was stationary stores, which have been replaced by office supplies stores, not the same. Journalers invade the craft stores and art supplies stores to get the markers and washi tape and Sakura pens they require for survival.

@great-art-and-a-purple-tongue @onbearfeet THE LORE HAS BEEN UPDATED.

VERY IMPORTANT AND ENTIRELY ACCURATE now excuse me I gotta hit Lowes and Michaels.

Another thing to note is all of those habitats must adapt to the seasonal migration of goths. As soon as the faintest hint of spooky can be detected at those stores, goths will arrive in packs. A small pack of goths determined to forage can strip the shelves of a seasonal section bare in 30 minutes.

Too important not to reblog

I for one stand in fascinated trepidation to see how the major habitat destruction wrought by the loss of JoAnn Fabric will impact the greater ecosystem.

SCAdians can often be found in any of these environments, and while they do not necessarily travel in packs outside their native lekking grounds, they are gregarious and are not in fact one species but a colony of cordyceps-symbiotic Crafters, Goths, Dads, Lesbians, Cosplayers, etc. that are directed by the cordyceps inhabiting them to find others to pull into the “Society”. This particular symbiotic fungi, c. recreatoris, causes hosts to behave similarly to Historical Re-enactors, but SCAdians tend to create their own internally consistent timeline of events taking place in a shared world, whereas Re-enactors are a species of Museum animal.

Something about Pokopia I love is that it straight up proves Team Plasma wrong. Because we have separation so complete there are no humans at all, and what do the Pokemon do? Try to find them. They try to bring their friends and loved ones back. They rebuilt infrastructure, they explore, they try whatever they can think of because they love each other. And the humans loved them back. Loved them enough to say goodbye, not knowing whether they would see each other again, because they knew where they are going not many Pokemon could live and be happy. The bond between human and Pokemon is strong and mutual and I will not hear otherwise

YES. YES. THANK YOU.
