when people on twitter or tiktok say "yeah tumblr is bad, its always been bad and gross and problematic" do they know its always been completely self-curated too or are we gonna leave that part out

#I always love people saying they can't escape the discourse cuz like #barring incidents of targeted harassment (which does happen) #the reason you can't escape the toxicity is you actively choose not to unfollow/block people #that's why discourse bloggers are so invested in saying blocking them means they won arguments #they need people to believe there's no escape without compromising your principles #also most of them believe they're Truth Coming Out Of The Well To Shame Mankind #when to quote someone I sadly can't remember the url of #they're actually Moron Coming Out Of Left Field To Be Annoying

like to charge reblog to cast

popping in to say that for the past 6 months I’ve used this post as an indicator of when to check the news because it spikes in notes every time there is a major world event

HWAT!!!!!!!

I vividly remember this because I got an alert on my phone that a clown was spotted close to university campus

Pick a bottle any bottle lol

I love getting unaccompanied minors (kids flying alone) who so clearly just. Don't want to be here lol. Sometimes I get to know a little of their story, like their parents are divorced, or a family member died and they're heading to the funeral, but usually they just don't want to talk about it and that's fine. But I always treat the flight like it's a challenge to make them smile. I offer them snacks and soda but that's never enough, that's whatever, they could get those from an airport vending machine. Chump change. So then I tell the worst jokes. Just the most embarrassing, kindergarten teacher, annoying dad jokes you can think of. And those always get a groan, or a "Seriously??" And that's my in! Now I can say "Why, what's your idea of a good joke? No, come on hotshot, make your best joke, let's see it." And they hem and they haw but of course they eventually tell me their very best joke because kids are little competitive comedy goldmines. And it's always super funny, so I laugh, and that's where they slip up. Because you know what you almost always do when your joke successfully makes someone laugh? You smile. And I'm like. Gotcha. Rookie move. Now you're going to end up having a good time in spite of yourself. I win.

Did this with an 11yo u.m. today and he said "What did the ghost say to the other ghost?" And I said "What?" "Nothing. Ghosts aren't real."

I think all my problems would be solved with hot chocolate croissants and sleeping on someone's lap while they read to me.
