as much as i get the sentiment behind "make more bad art" there's gotta be a better way of communicating "you don't have to be technically proficient or hold yourself to a specific standard of practice" that doesn't sound as backhanded lol

the humiliating process of realizing nobody gives af when you talk about certain topics that mean something to you, and you arent even sure whether youre doing something Bad or just nobody cares bc there isnt even a response to gauge, but regardless you just start feeling Really Sad when you want to share until it feels so bad you have to make yourself stop. ok

and like you cant Say anything. because what are you gonna say? Give Me Attention? and then feel like any further response must surely be forced and not genuine? and feel just as bad because now it feels like youre forcing some sort of interaction nobody wants to have? i hope the rest of you have the courage to speak up actually because you deserve acknowledgement for the things that are important to you and the people around you should know it

Your Interests Are Worth Talking About Actually. even if nobody acknowledges it. even if it just feels like people are waiting for it to pass like a phase

Kinda surreal to see people explain WHY Tumblr is implementing age verification in the UK and Brazil just to see responders argue that it's still all Tumblr's fault for complying. They don't want to imagine that this is anything but a bad UI choice that can be turned around by yelling at social media employees. "What's the government got to do with fascism?", or something like that

Jackson Galaxy is selling a "vaccine detox" supplement that is literally just water

sometimes you will see a joke circulate within a fandom and at first it's all fun and games but then the slow and terrible realization starts to seep in that this will become in fact a widely-accepted way to read a specific situation between characters that were subject of said joke and there is nothing you can do about it but to watch the horrors unfold in real time

i need to imagine some scenarios

tomodachi life giving you so many oppertunities for custom images and text with no filters means the obvious answer is of course to fill it with sex and penis. which is why i appreciate that every tomodachi life post ive seen is actually pretty lacking in sex and penis. instead we've been giving our miis enough cigarettes to kill a small village.

one of the guys in the kitchen at work got called irritating and replied “I am not irritating. You just find me irritating. There are many people who love me.” I think we should all adopt his attitude

You actually cannot skip to being good at a creative endeavour that you haven't put much practice into. You cannot trick your way out of the 'knows that your work is not what you want it to be but don't know how to improve it' stage by planning or reading or talking about it really really hard. At some point you just have to craft through it until your brain finds it's own unique way back to the 'everything I make slaps' stage and be prepared to start the cycle all over again. You just have to make that project you're excited about slightly less good than you want it to be. (Says this standing in a pool of blood and covered in blood and also coughing up a little blood)

i wish you could laugh react eBay listings. that's not worth $250. you fucking asshole. lmao
