“average president has 2 felony charges” factoid actualy just statistical error. average president has 0 felony charges. Felonies Don, who lives in a state of disgrace (Florida) & has 92 felony charges, is an outlier adn should not have been counted
Congratulations to Donald “Fuckwad” Trump for reaching exactly twice as many felony charges as there have been United States presidents, and therefore making the math easier for all of us! Finally, a decent accomplishment.
Hold on to your butts, because by the end of this he may have 3x or 4x!
who would win: one extremely critically acclaimed author who had one of his stories turned into a beautiful stop motion animated movie directed by henry selick OR a 22 year old girl who makes jokes about putting people in death traps and self published a novella about a robot being shot into space that one time
I desperately need help to keep my utilities on!!!
**URGENT: PLEASE READ/SIGNAL BOOST**
Tueday, August 15th: Hello everyone, I’m Gemma, a bi, mentally ill, and disabled woman in desperate need of help, as I’m struggling to keep my utilities on and due to outstanding bills, I’m in the red with my PayPal.
As most of you are already aware from my previous posts, I have been struggling financially these past few years due to Covid-19 and my welfare benefit (Universal Credit) being under continuous reviews, which is due to my worsening mental/physical health and the UK’s controversial changes to how benefits are assessed and assigned. After a lengthy health assessment, I have been declared unfit for work. However, I am still waiting for the outcome of my Adult Disability application, which I applied for back on January 15th!! (seven months ago!!!)
To be quite honest, these past few months have been absolute hell for me, and with no other income, I’ve been relying on the kindness of others to get by, however, due to creditors and late bills, my account is overdrawn by £103.79. I don’t receive my welfare until the 31st, and I could really use some help in paying this and to keep my utilities on until then.
If anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would save my life, and sharing definitely helps just as much. Thank you so much for all your help!! ❤
the essential queer internet experience is thanking a content creator for recognizing that people like you exist, only for a community moderator to scold you remind you in a friendly manner not to talk about how you exist
Hey Y’all
If someone in power asks you not to talk about your queer identity in even the vaguest terms because they’re “concerned about safety”
Hit da Fuckin Bricks
if they were concerned about your safety, they’d make sure you could be queer and safe, not one or the other
ugh god damn it I just remembered I was paying for a patreon tier specifically for rewards in that discord so now I have to add:
if you’re a ManlyBadassHero fan and also queer, don’t pay for the discord tiers and don’t join the discord server. until this is reversed and clarified, the confirmed mod policy is that mentioning being queer (as in the screenshots above) is “sharing too much personal information” and approaches violation of the server rules, even if it’s relevant to the discord server.
Maids, cleaners, janitors, and sanitation workers are all the most important people of civilization by far. Even 12 hours without them is VERY noticable and they simply need to be highly compensated for it
‘Six AM’, 1930 - William Wolfson
Hi, I’m a janitor. The facility I work in had its first floor flooded with sewage and while a restoration company came and sucked up all the water and placed fans everywhere to try the place out, I still cleaned the entire floor and threw away all the contaminated furniture. Same thing happened last year, but only a couple of rooms flooded on that floor and it was only water from a sprinkler system. This year was so much worse and I feel like no one in management gives a shit. The entire upstairs was absolutely going to shit because I was focused on the downstairs. Despite the work I do, I have to beg folks to spread around my little bear commission posts every month because I simply can’t afford to live on what I’m paid lol
So, truly thanks to everyone who makes and shares posts like these recognizing sanitation workers. It’s really a thankless job.
Literal FANFIC art. Art of FANFIC. I love this so much!
This could use another go round.

Wondering what the difference in fruit means…
@dropdeaddropout It’s an older way of rating the sexiness of a fic, essentially. Orange (the sweetest) is family friendly; hand holding, chaste kisses, and so on. Lime is Teen/PG-14, Lemon is Mature/R.
Grapefruit is not an escalation in rating, but rather where the story “jumps the shark,” so to speak. If your OTP is visiting a BDSM club every other chapter and indulging in public sex and watersports in between and it’s all described in loving and graphic detail, that’s still a lemon. But if your OTP gets drunk on magic sex wine and bangs their way through the entire cast of the Lord of the Rings trilogy including Sauron the Giant Flaming Eyeball, that’s a grapefruit.

re: that fucking staff post. obviously death to algorithms, but i also wanna interrogate the wider underlying assumptions of their logic there cuz. is ‘success’ having lots of followers & lots of popular posts??? why is that the end goal of using this website. i don’t open tumblr to get attention from strangers, i open tumblr to read funny jokes and interesting commentary and to see cool art. encouraging clout-chasing will only increase user engagement if you successfully get people literally addicted to the associated dopamine hit. what if we didn’t have to do that!!! what if a website could be a place you went to on purpose because you had fun there!!!!
Tumblr staff: ten options is enough for polls, right? No one needs more than that on a regular basis. The average tumblr user: Hey guys which element of the periodic table do you think is the most fuckable?
Posting hole
Lol
yeah yeah carbon nanotubes. but what about the copper nanotubes.
I came out as bisexual, and everyone started avoiding me. But I weaponized that repulsion, like magnets with the same polarity, I walked into crowds and people got pushed away by an invisible force.
sometimes neurodivergence questions will be like ‘do you find activities more enjoyable when they are activities you enjoy’ and it really makes me wonder if this ‘neurotypical’ thing has just been a big practical joke all along
‘do you find it disruptive to your focus when your focus on a task is disrupted suddenly and without warning’ this CANNOT be diagnostic criteria. they are playing us for fools
Diana Serra Cary started in films when she was 19 months old, as “Baby Peggy.” Like a lot of other child stars she was exploited, overworked, supported her entire family with her earnings, was considered “washed up” before she was 10 and was left with nothing as an adult. At 17 she ran away from home, knowing that her parents wanted her to work in films forever and she needed a way out.
She eventually married an artist, opened a bookstore, and became an author and historian. Her 1978 nonfiction book Hollywood’s Children traced the exploitation of child actors from the 1800s onward.
She also released Whatever Happened to Baby Peggy? a memoir of her child star years, pulling no punches on the abuse she suffered at the hands of her parents, directors and studios, who put her to work eight hours a day, six days a week and had her doing her own stunts before she was five. This scene here, from The Darling of New York? Not special effects. They actually put this small child in a burning room and she almost didn’t get out because they accidentally fired all the doors and windows.
In 2011 a documentary about her, The Elephant in the Room, was released. She released her last book, a novel, at the age of 100.
She never got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. She’s not remembered much in film histories. But she was one of the pioneers, and with her, the last of the silent era stars is gone.
YOU GUYS ARE TOO COMFORTABLE BEING MEAN ONLINE. YOU SHOULD ALL BE MORE LIKE ME, COMPLETELY SELF ABSORBED AND NARCISSISTIC. CARE MORE ABOUT LOVING YOURSELF THAN HATING OTHERS.
