many sharks are at least moderately social, and if a specific species of shark has the ability to breathe without actually swimming and tends to have a lot of sharks in a fairly small area, well.
they are just going to Pile. and there is simply nothing you can do about it.
my girl is like 9/11 she’s got a body count of around 3000 and people act like i am supposed to be really upset about it
Does that also mean she rearranges your insides for 100 minutes of burning penetration and then you crash to the ground in a steaming heap of trash, devastated and useless?
I think I’m literally never gonna be sick of this masterpiece. I think watching it on a loop for eight hours could fix me. Dancing’s what clears my soul. Dancing’s what makes me whole.
For any followers of mine still living with parents, guardians, family, or even just with roommates and who’ve never lived alone and/or fully on your own terms (whether ye be 16 or 60), I have TWO pieces of wisdom for you for when you eventually do:
You WILL discover that you were wrong about some shit you felt pretty strongly about before. Maybe you never realized how often your mom ACTUALLY cleans the bathroom and it turns out she asked for help really rarely. Maybe, much as it grates to admit, putting $50 into a different savings account every paycheck really IS the ONLY way to save any fucking money. Maybe that big rolling trashcan you resented your roommate putting in the kitchen, and got in that big fight about, really WAS super convenient and now you have to buy one for yourself after they move out and take it with them. Maybe blanching vegetables so they retain their color when cooked actually DOES enhance a meal, pretty food slaps actually, and the reason you didn’t think it was worth the effort is because you were depressed.
You WILL also discover new shit that works SO much better for you than everything you’d been taught. Maybe you’ll discover that dropping trash off at a recycling center at your convenience works way better for your brain than getting it picked up on a set day. Maybe you’ll realize you don’t actually hate tofu, you just hate how your family cooks tofu. Maybe you’ll love being able to walk around the house naked whenever you want. Maybe you’ll find you thrive in a space with giant framed nude photography, or taxidermy animals, or fandom themed Everything. Maybe you’ll realize that keeping the thermostat set like 5 degrees colder (or hotter) than is typical makes you sleep better than you ever have before in your whole life.
The point of this wisdom is: Stay humble, but also, stay excited. There’s no point pretending you weren’t wrong about shit you were wrong about, just eat the crow and move on. But also, there’s so much to look forward to about your own space– even more than you could ever imagine when you don’t have it yet.
I have an end-of-life patient to whom I spoke today. She burst out laughing and said, “It was all such fun. I just had so much fun.” I wish this for everyone. I wish that we each would meet death laughing, with little regret and even less fear.

I really think that it’s important to remember @staff are trying to phase out custom blogs! Literally the most fun and interesting part of Tumblr and a very awesome selling point of Tumblr’s entire model.
That’s part of their whole ‘Tumblr’s not easy to use’ bullshit. They’ve been working at it for months now, you can’t even access someone’s custom blog from mobile anymore and like not even on the mobile website.
So yeah that theme and those pages you worked so hard to make unique and interesting? The webcomic hosted on Tumblr in such a way that it basically has it’s own website? The ARCHIVE of your blog that you can pretty much only access from a button on your custom blog? It’ll all go down the gutter if we don’t yell until our voices go hoarse.
This is a BLOGGING website the point of the website is THE BLOGS! I didn’t work hard to maintain my blog and keep the pages on it looking pretty for some hack at RND to decide it needs to go to make way for their ‘definitely not-Twitter’ ideal website. I swear to god the loss of our custom blogs will be the exact last straw for me and I WILL leave.
i love the french, i love the way they pronounce Rs like they’re disgusted with them
the english meanwhile seem to have developed some sort of phobia about them
When we were discussing the surgery I’d need for my sleep apnea, the surgeon told me I’d never be able to speak French properly because the French R is a uvular sound and I’d no longer have a uvula.
… that’s okay? I’m not French? I don’t speak French? I’ve always thought it was the weirdest thing for him to say!
Huh. Didn’t know you could have French surgically removed.
sorry i just cannot get this out of my head. Like, “oh you speak french? i hear there’s an operation for that”
in recent events of that zoo losing the clouded leopard, it reminded me of the time i went to a large petting zoo and there was a free roaming little black sheep. cutest little guy i ever saw, soi went to the zookeeper nearby and said ‘i think its really cute how you have a sheep thats allowed to just walk around. ‘ then the zookeepers eyes widened and he grabbed his walky talky and ran

if school was actually fun and cool they’d let me give a presentation on their flaws and suggestions on how to fix them based on student survey and research
Sincerely thank you for reblogging my art around and putting tags and looking at it I love animating it makes me feel so relaxed this is 55 drawings I drew them
Sometimes you’re a full blown communist but you’re tired and you wish you could even have the bare minimum amount of dignity and ease in your existence so you absentmindedly say something like “man I wish the healthcare system wasn’t fucked up. I wish I could ride a train to the next city. I wish rent was cheaper” and some absolute weed shows up and says “Oh you’re a social chauvinist? You’re a liberal? Does baby want his first world treats? You want to use slave labor to build social democratic gentrified urbanism on stolen land? You think we should still have landlords? You’re satisfied with begging for scraps?” and it’s like man come on
I want to clarify that I made this post before this site got swallowed by the Twitter Banana Argument, so to be clear: there is no just future without the total demolition of USA imperialism and hegemony, total decolonization, and communism, not social democracy for the first world, but real communism. We in the imperial nations do, in fact, have to do better than begging for scraps and settling for reform. That said, sometimes I am going to wish my friends weren’t drowning in medical bills and that I didnt have to drive 50 miles a day to get to work, and I’m going to bitch about those things on my blog without appending my entire manifesto to it. You are never going to get someone’s entire political outlook from one post, so don’t assume a singular bit of grieving or kvetching is emblematic of a deficiency in moral and political fiber. Don’t mistake me for one of those banana-chauvinist dullards because of this post lmfao.
I should append a giant SOCIAL DEMOCRATS DO NOT INTERACT OR AGREE WITH THIS POST banner to the original, shouldn’t I
Kitten. Kitten, listen to daddy. You’re gonna drop this rifle. No, I know, I told them about your demands, your new Chanel choker is on its way. Please just- no, no I know that… (whispering to myself) fuck I should’ve checked your reading comprehension before making you read The Capital, I’m deleting tiktok from your phone when this is all over. (louder) I know the 1% is the reason you can’t have wetfood, but listen to me. This guy is just working at the front desk. He’s not a “class traitor” he has a family to feed and a terrible job. Yes even at a bank. He -oh you have your own discord kitten too? See? How would you feel if daddy got shot by someone at the glue factory? You don’t want a kitten to be left without her daddy. Think about it kitten… You can still get away with it if there’s no blood. Just..Yeah, like that, put down the gun, slowly…There there. Yes I know, I know you’re sorry. It’s okay, I know where you’re coming from, yes, yes. I’ll play Genshin with you and you’ll fall asleep on my lap, and we’ll talk about this tomorrow, okay? (whispering to my assistant) call the vet I’m fucking neutering that bitch
wait what? the fuck? this is the first time I’m hearing about this. christians have a Make New Minecraft World event?
man what the fuck?
Like I’ve said before they believe the Antichrist will take over the world specifically by creating world peace and paradise so that everyone will trust him as a global dictator. This is why they called Obama the antichrist, because he said he wanted to end war. They believe the world is meant to fall into ruin and anyone planning to end violence or poverty is working for the devil.
Out of all the wild mystical opportunities americans choose the ugliest most penitential self-loathing-infused narcissistic nightmare, starve and beat it in the garage and turn it loose on the world
American Evangelical Fundamentalist Christianity is literally a death cult.
So Prismo got recast in the Fionna and Cake show cuz Kumail Nanjiani’s agents didn’t let him know the crew was trying to get him back to reprise the role
I remember back in 2011 there was a little flap caused when Weird Al put out his song “Perform This Way” for free online because Lady Gaga had denied permission to put it on his album (permission he never needed, but always got anyway). He’d been asked to supply not just lyrics but a recorded version before being denied, hence putting it out online. Fans of both artists were surprised and upset by this news.
One Weird Al fan who was massively surprised by all this was Stefani Germanotta, better known as Lady Gaga. It turns out that her manager had been the one handling the situation and never actually played the song for her. She quickly OK’ed it, and the song was still the lead-off single for the Alpocalypse.
And just makes me wonder how many of these “we actually asked but your team said no without consulting you” things happen.
This also reminds me of the Gary Larson/Jane Goodall thing, where Gary Larson (the guy who does “The Far Side”, of “Cow Tools” fame) put out the following comic:
TLDR version: The Jane Goodall Institute was not amused, and bugged Larson to pull it from publication… But Goodall herself saw it when she got back from the research trip she’d been on, thought it was HILARIOUS, and let the PR people who made the decision HAVE IT for giving him grief about it without consulting her first, before giving Larson the go-ahead herself; as a result, it got to go back into print. She even signed a copy of it for him!
One of my favorite stories, tbh.
I have heard of MANY similar stories. Especially since the strikes began. It turns out that many actors want to do indie movies, and ask their reps about it. The indie movies want them, and contact the reps. The reps refuse and never tell the actors about it.
I have also seen a situation where an author of colour wanted a certain director of colour to adapt her book, and the director also wanted to adapt the book, and both asked their agents to contact the other side… both agents returned, over and over again, for YEARS, with “refusals” from the other party. Only when they met at an event and both hesitatingly broached the subject did they find out the truth.
The Goodall story is slightly more complicated than that.
Larson got a scathing letter from the Jane Goodall society. He sent an apology, and that was that, until a few years later, when National Geographic was doing an issue dedicated to Dr. Goodall. They asked Larson if they could use the comic and he went “I would ordinarily say yes, but she was pissed about it.” And they went “we know her better than that. We’ll call her,” and called her. And she said “hold on I have to scream at someone but yes, I freakin’ loved it.”
I found an old rusty USB in the basement today should I see if anything’s on it
oh we’re off to a good start
These were the only two pictures on it, like 8 folders deep.
Anyone know… Gallifreyan?????
ALSO there were a bunch of ancient (okay from 2014) SCP games on it?? and a Gameboy Emulator and a copy of the game Lifehouse, based off the concept album The Who tried to write in the 70’s, but Pete Townsend got too lost in the sauce or whatever and had a mental breakdown and never finished it
Thank u for your translation also I don’t know how to feel about this but based on the name of the USB I can’t say I’m surprised
