at lantern's call

yknow its interesting how something can impact one demographic in a completely different way than everyone else. in the exorcist when the demon starts speaking in greek, to most people its creepy. but if youre greek and you suddenly start hearing the demon speak perfect fucking greek its genuinely the biggest scare of the movie. you just do not expect to ever hear your language in american movies so it catches you so badly off guard, it feels like the movie is talking directly to you

the first time my dad saw it, it was with his american friends. and when she started speaking greek he turned to one of them and was like "re malaka did you hear that in english?"

can we bring back the term "fair-weather friend" bc I feel like if fair-weather friends got called that more this whole argument about whether or not you should be there for your friends when it's inconvenient/at what point of personal inconvenience it's ok to bail on your friends would kinda fall apart bc like. we literally have a word for "friend who's only there when you don't need something from them" because the baseline expectation is that a friend should be there even when it sucks. like we used to make fun of people for bailing on their friends.

it took 40 minutes but i just killed ssb with only my aura.

ok since theyre not in rotation this week they surely have to be available next week... i think i want to do this again (slightly dissatisfied with my first attempt despite being successful)

pewdiepie was one of the harbingers of the alt right internet apocalypse i hate that skinny white man with all my heart

I blame him (at least partially) for the rise in anti-indian racism in the late 2010s to today and people look at me like I'm the friend who's too woke when I say that. But it's true

and you’d be right to blame him. he normalized the rise in anti-indian and anti-desi racism through “jokes.” it took me forever to take pride in my indian heritage bc of the culture he helped set up.

ohhhh shit. target is recalling their up & up baby wipes (fragrance free & fresh cucumber scented) because they're contaminated with Burkholderia cepacia complex and Burkholderia gladioli, multiple people are reporting discoloration & infections. i just got a call about it cuz i had purchased those but i've already gone through them 😅 so no refund for me. but im fine. if you have these they're saying you need to immediately stop using them and bring them back to target for a full refund. this bacteria can cause life threatening infections in children/infants and people with compromises immune systems (ESPECIALLY cystic fibrosis!!) and i know lots of other chronically ill people follow me!!!!

If you use baby wipes go check them NOW. A lot of Burkholderia bugs are antibiotic resistant so infections can be really difficult to treat.

i love aroace fandom interactions and dynamics and headcanons. i really truly do. but if you're going to be making these big posts on how shipping is cringe and bad and of lesser intellectual value. Conveniently only mentioning gay ships over straight ships. i'm going to uhhhhhhhhh. assume something about you. during pride month

i feel like i've heard something about seeing aromanticism and asexuality as "higher intellectual value" being equally homophobic as it is condescendingly aphobic. and seeing posts about this and warning against saying these things on tumblr since like, 2013. and now i'm seeing the absolute opposite on my dashboard. heyyyyyyy. that's so fun and cute and quirky that you think having sex and being interested in sex makes people stupider than you. do you want to call me a slur

forcefemming a pathetic girl who won’t do it herself, not as a sex thing but because it’s so fucking annoying to watch someone make herself miserable
