(Getting swindled by a genie) it’s like talking to a fucking tumblr user with you

the genie: how dare you say I'm fucking a tumblr user

Does any serious, thinking person believe a $20 per hour minimum wage is somehow extravagant or wasteful and not just the amount it would take for stagnated wages to catch up to inflation?

MRI machines and cooling units and AC and IT systems in hospitals are breaking due to the heat. Lab equipment is failing. Some cancer treatments cannot be done due to machine failures. A&E overcrowding is worse due to heat related health issues and sheer amount of people is making the heat in hospitals worse (and the AC! Is breaking!) Patients with appointments are being advised to bring in "a lot" of water with them to be able to safely attend. Fans cannot be used in hospitals. Norwich has no functuoning MRI scanners right now. And the staff have to keep working through all of this, they are getting ill and sleep deprived which is compounding issues further. This is not normal 👍

if your website has an AI "assistant" that keeps popping up in the corner of my screen i hate you forever

"speak with nero" i'd really rather not i think!

every single year there is some headline like 30 children vaporised into ashes in record heatwave and the most unpleasant person u have ever met is like "they could NOT handle texas 🤣"

The old school lack of transparency on tumblr is amazing because you assume the people you follow must all be equivalent to you and then you see someone write “I brought my youngest to college today” and someone else write “my mom wouldn’t let me listen to Ariana Grande when I was a kid” and then your head explodes

and we need that! keeps us humble. 

Then I'm just like WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU’RE AN ADULT

It goes the other way, too, because WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE A CHILD?!!

I'm 16, that's like, barely a child

I'm in my 30s. You are baby

I'm older than both of you in a trenchcoat.

honestly one of the best things we can do for ourselves is realize that people of different ages than us can still be the same kind of person as us. it's humbling and it gives everyone involved a sense of continuity, and it busts those stupid generational stereotypes media is so fond of.

I'm nowhere near Appalachia--Texan born and raised--but I've heard stories. And there's just some little pockets of civilization you just leave the hell alone and forget you ever heard about them.

holy mother of fucking classism WHAT is this post and why was it recommended to me??? “feral people”???? “their kind”?????? hello???? do you hear yourselves????? do you think before you type out words and hit send??? Be Normal About The Appalachias Challenge, Difficulty: Fucking Impossible i guess. y’all really see a low income family living in a rural area and start pissing your pants with fear and writing horror stories. fuck off with that. there’s no “feral people”, there’s no whispering in the woods, and you don’t go into the woods after dark BECAUSE ITS THE FUCKING WOODS AND ITS DARK AND YOU’RE MORE LIKELY TO GET LOST. fuck. i’m so tired of this shit. we’re literally just people.

why are people so persistently weird about appalachia

this is so stupid y’all should be embarrassed

I'm not even sure what kind of bigotry this is but it's something. My god.

oh thats why my hadns have started to always be in pain ok
