I Am Dad Inside

i still think about the fucking quesadilla terf

anyone else notice how when "digital assistants" were just supposed to do specific tasks when you asked for them we had Alexa and Siri and Cortana, but now that they're being marketed as smart enough to take actions and make decisions on their own they've got names like Claude and Devin

chosing to step away from tumblr as a social media was best thing ever because now im socialising and going to pubs with friends that i've made irl and planning real life activities and not being a fucking loser on the internet. sucks to suck fucks to fuck lol. yeah im flexing i dont care. go outside bro leave tumblr i promise the white american loser echo chamber is holding you back.

Parliament is still sitting so you still have time to contact your representatives!

Two counter protest events have been made as Far-Right groups, Such as One Nation, attempt to coordinate across the country! Magandjin ('Brisbane') on 12th of July at King George Square! Naarm ('Melbourne') on 4th of July at Parliament House steps! In the mean time spread the word, make more posts about it all, email or call your MP and tell the community! If you're outside of Australia your reblogs are very valuable! If you're an ally then you need to get noisy and stand up for trans folk, make sure we're not the only ones talking about it

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?"

if you're bored of casual sex and are finding yourself struggling to transition into a committed relationship i sympathize, I genuinely do, i've been there, but if casual sex didn't exist that wouldn't magically cause you to develop the social skills necessary to enter a committed relationship. if anything you would have even less relevant social skills because you wouldn't have developed adjacent social skills in a lower stakes environment.

if "hookup culture" didn't exist you wouldn't be in a committed relationship you'd just be both single *and* fuckless.

usamerican soldier STUNNED into silence when he learns that his willing and paid participation in the murder and neocolonization of foreign people is a huge red flag to everyone with a conscience

holy shit I just discovered this crazy technique for being right almost all of the time it's called "double checking something before boldly stating it as if it were fact" this could be the next big thing. this could be the song of the summer

so uhm 🧍‍♂️ my house is burning down 🧍‍♂️

not gonna post pics and doxx myself but they literally took out the roofing 💀 i was supposed to leave for amsterdam tonight to catch the train to england in the morning (have to be there at 5:30) & go to a UK con 😭💀 i havent even packed yet bro 😭

oh my god i almost forgot to tell you all about how, while my dad was visiting, i had an infestation of every single kind of bug in my house that hasn't been a problem before or since. like i'm not kidding i evicted so many creeping crawlies that week and couldn't for the life of me stop mosquitos from stealing my blood, but as soon as he left they vanished. and i mean, sure, there's a perfectly rational explanation, because two people make more mess than one and he has a habit of leaving the windows wide open enough to fly a jet engine through day and night, but i can't help but think how symbolically on the nose it was. the ancestral rot at the heart of my family so gothic it's got ants and flies buzzing around its decaying corpse.

hey so update but i haven't been harassed by a single freaky little beast since my dad left even after leaving some crumbs on the floor as an experiment to see if they attracted any ants so i think my dad might just be bugs actually

@entities-of-posts textbook corruption example lol

Seconded

There's a recurring online tendency to aestheticize consensus itself. The imagined future village is full of emotionally compatible people who enjoy communal gardening, conflict resolution circles, acoustic folk music, mutual aid potlucks, and repairing bicycles together at sunset. Which is nice for the people who genuinely enjoy that lifestyle. But plenty of humans are solitary, prickly, obsessive, urban, nocturnal, sensory-seeking, technologically attached, contrarian, novelty-seeking, private, or just plain difficult. Those people do not evaporate after the revolution. They do not get Left Behind while you are Raptured into the Utopia. They become your neighbors.

COBALT MENTIONED OUTSIDE OF TWITTER???

God I fucking love being a monk at the Monastery of Lindisfarne on this fine morning of June 8th, 793. I love looking at all the gold and silver objects and alive monks that live here.
