“All the truth in the world is held in stories."

People are unfazed if you hate women but if you dislike dogs they assume you're a bad person

Tumblr users will read a post complaining about normalized misogyny and hyperfocus on your claim that it's ok to dislike dogs

There is absolutely nothing whatsoever wrong with this. People should do it more

I remember when HD tv was first available back in the 2000s, my university had a random HD channel. I watched SNL on it and it was crazy to be able to see how flimsy the sets were and how caked on and flat the makeup was. Then you’d flip back to the normal channel and everything would look fine again.

they need to release like vintage-mode low-def de-stored versions of classic sci fi so you can see how the costumes and sets were supposed to look like.

i've been phasing the phrase 'google it' out of my vocabulary and going back to 'look it up'. fuck you youve lost your generic trademark privileges

whenever i click on the notes of a song i like and see a bunch of people being like "hate that this became a tiktok sound" i feel so free like genuinely free in my bones. one million aspiring influencers can never make me hate "heat waves" by glass animals. the only time i hear "too sweet" is when i pull up a hozier album and press play. your demonic app has no power over me and how often i listen to my songs #mysongs

shout out to the time i told my doctor about the extreme hip pain i had been having for months that was preventing me from walking even short distances, expecting to be told to exercise more, and he was like "ah yeah i know what that is" and then he gave me a shot and i was cured instantly. walked out with no hip pain. never in my wildest dreams did i ever think a doctor could be that helpful

because of this i always tell him of my minor foibles, you never know when theres another Miracle Shot

You should take some time to read @3liza's post documenting the Phantom Report Bug (which she deserves praise for doing, thank you eliza) and see how fucking broken Tumblr's report tool is. I also want to reiterate something she is once again correct about: no one files bug reports. I have first hand experience working at Tumblr and I remember having to tell web devs on Staff "i saw a post about someone talking about a bug" and they were unaware because no one followed through to file a bug. I have fixed bugs that I saw people posting about that were in my domain (I'm a mobile dev) but were not in the system. No this is not an endorsement of "complain about it enough and eventually someone will see it", this is an endorsement of "file a bug report directly to computer companies and people will most likely read it and probably fix it". I mean it this is not a Tumblr-only thing. I've seen this at every company I've worked for. Just fucking file a bug report please I beg you, software gets complicated and the devs are just unaware that there's a bug until you bring it to your attention. And they want to fix the bug! I promise!

WHAT AM I ALWAYS SAYING TO YOU PEOPLE. COMPLAINING GETS THE GOODS. YOURE NOT ALLOWED TO GET MAD UNTIL YOUVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE PROBLEM TO SOMEONE WHOSE JOB IT IS TO FIX IT
