as a child being told "the moon controls the tides" with no additional explanation was like. oh okay. you want me to believe in magic? you're talking about magic right now? okay. fine

I don’t think I have the chops for D&D or other tabletop RPGs but I could make a good DM’s assistant. I don’t play the game but I sit and listen and then after the session the DM can ask me for ideas.

and I am in character as the king’s most trusted advisor the whole time

I could say things like “yes, my liege, most clever, my liege” and keep notes for the DM and maybe supply a few character voices. and serve everyone very sinister tea.

"If stuff was just handed to me I'd have no motivation to do anything! That's human nature!" No, babe, that's depression. Psychologically healthy people are still motivated to do things even when their survival isn't being actively threatened.

Plus rich people are just handed a lot of money, whether they earn it or not, and no one questions that. Only poor people getting money gets interrogated over and over and over again.

I’d like to add a footnote to this thread that the US gives more money (by way of the income tax reduction) to homeowners than it does to poor people who need subsidized housing.

There's also this assumption that if people were just handed enough money to live that they'd do absolutely nothing, as if they'd be satisfied being completely bored all the time. They'd still buy food. They'd still buy video games. They'd still go out and get coffee and put money into the economy even if they didn't want to work because they still want to LIVE. They'd buy movies. They'd go DO stuff. I review comic books on the internet and I love doing it, but I often have to compromise on some things because I just can't afford to do otherwise and I stress out about stuff because I need to earn money.

Fun fact: that's the same goal!

why are people even questioning obesity in america

why is your tea liquidised?

….. Where exactly do you live that the tea isn’t liquid?!?

No it’s sweet tea you drink it cold

WHO DRINKS COLD TEA???

HAVE YOU NEVER HAD ICED/SWEET TEA BEFORE?!?

England, you stole tea from China.  You’ve had it a mere 4 centuries compared to their 30+.  Don’t play like you’re some kind of authority.

[skeletons ooh-ing]

Shots fired. World War Tea has officially begun.

#INTO THE HARBOR

Englad doesn’t own anything

except that time we owned most of the world

If I stop reblogging this, I’ve gone to the other side.

I have only seen this legendary post in screenshots, so today is a blessed day.

HOLY HELL I FOUND IT

And this is why I love Tumblr

Drinking cold tea is like drinking cold hot chocolate. Sure, you *can* do it, but you *really shouldn’t*

I only see this on pinterest omg….

BEHOLD THE GREATEST TUMBLR POST

“world war tea” is the best play on words i’ve heard in weeks

this post is a wild ride from start to finish

I haven’t seen this since chocolate milk was added. Is that really just an American thing? You’re missing out guys!

😂😂😂

YOU GUYS DRINK COFFEE COLD AS WELL???

Does the rest of the world not use ice cubes? Do y'all not have freezers? What is going on?

Just thought I’d put my 2 cents in this post, it’s iced tea and not sweet tea. Idk what Americans r smoking 💀

I’m relatively new to Tumblr but it seems like sort of a big deal that I found this post so I’m gonna reblog

Imagine not liking iced tea- actually im gonna go drink some now

I don’t even know what to say…

i drink iced tea every day >:)

Iced tea is brilliant but hot tea is nice too

World War Tea Situation

This post is a relic

date of origin: November 5th, 2013

The legend has crossed my dash.

Sometimes Brits forget that a massive portion of America has A LOT OF HEAT. There is no question if you live in the south you need cold drinks, and I know the weather is getting hotter over there too- maybe try the iced tea my good dudes.

Holy shit this thing turns ten in the year of hell known as 2023. See y’all in 2033 if we don’t burn everything to the ground by then! And, if we do, cold tea on me!

The American Southeast is an extremely hot region, and it’s at the same rough latitude as north Africa if you go far south enough. The local culture is also primarily agrarian, though many simply live in cities and learned the culture from their parents or grandparents. The people there work hard and their primary source of luxury is food- usually high calorie comfort food. The first colonial settlers there were mostly British, so they still drink tea, but it’s far too hot outside to regularly drink hot tea… so they figured out how to make it palatable when cold, mostly by adding in citrus and more sugar when brewing and letting it reach room temperature or colder. It’s also important to note that while it’s often called sweet tea, it’s usually not as sweet as soft drinks.

I’m rebloging this because I’ve been getting more empty, default looking accounts following me again. And this me again telling you to change it.

if she’s your girl why am I wearing her favour at the tournament

If she’s your girl why am I her champion

Mom said it’s my turn on the girlhood >:(

yr locked in a room alone with three adult men but you feel perfectly safe. who are they

I mean, I feel safe from them but I’m suddenly EXTREMELY worried about what shenanigans I’ve stumbled into

i was feeling silly at the gas station today so i said to the cashier that i’ll take my gas “to go” and i could see her imagining what it would be like to jump over the counter and strangle me to death

Remember when 10 year old girls used to wear happy bunny t shirts that just said shit like “I’m going to skin you alive”
