i'm buffy, the vampire slayer. and you are?

you gotta read, you gotta write, you gotta draw, you gotta watch films and shows. there is literally NO time to be employed

if I see one more "why age verification is bad" post that doesn't even bother to mention that locking young people out of huge sections of the public sphere - literally the stated goal and primary impact of this shit - is wrong in and of itself I will simply start hitting people with bricks

yes yes biometric data privacy blah blah adults can hypothetically by harmed by this too. what about the immediate and deliberate and not at all hypothetical harm to youth. why are you acting like a potential data leak about what your face looks like, which if it ever happened would at least be generally recognised as a problem, is a more serious issue than cutting millions of people off from information and community and public expression which is happening right now in the open with large scale support

it's got the stench of fucking "banned books week" on it. thousands of adults congratulating themselves for reading books literally no one is trying to stop them from reading while doing nothing to improve access for the young people who are the ones actually having those books made off-limits to them.

idk if this is a contreversial take or not but i think that the ideal internet experience is being able to remove specific things (triggers, nsfw, gore) if you truly dont want to see them but overall being also shown things you aren’t interested in. i think one of my fave things about tumblr is seeing like 50% of my dash be about fandoms im not in, bands i dont like and quotes from books i dont want to read rather than this endless feedback loop of tiktok showing me ‘exactly what i want to see’ in a trap to keep me online as long as possible and blind to communities outside of my own. i want a mix of curating my own experience and a healthy dose of content i don’t already know i want to see, yknow?

when ppl don’t put tags on reblogs it does make me a little sad…. like….. what are you thinking…. how are you feeling…. what have we done to each other…. what will we do….

i love arm

a severe thunderstorm warning that doesnt follow through is worse than orgasm denial

"lock in" is probably one of the most important phrases to enter the public lexicon in the 2020s

2026 being the ten year anniversary of 2016 ace discourse means that everyone needs to get incredibly asexual this year. as reparations

many of you in the notes saying “on it boss”. i’m starting to think you guys were already asexual…
