It’s me boy the PS5! Speaking to you inside your brain! Listen to me boy. Leave the girl, we don’t need her. Come with me, play my games… We’ll have cowboy times in..SPACE! DO DO DUHDOO YEAAAH. YOU NEED ME BOY YOUR FREE WILL IS AN ILLUSION.
“Listeners, as I speak we are winding down to the final hours of a momentous occasion. For the second time, I am a contender for some sort of internet sexy gentleman award. An award for which I will gain nothing but online clout and the value of which–as far as I know–is not fungible in any known countries, dimensions, or time paradoxes. As before, everything comes down to the results of an internet poll. Truly the greatest tool of democracy, with the exception of those neat little ‘I voted’ stickers.”
“But the outcome of this poll is of little concern to me. Because right now the sexiest man I know is at home, fast asleep on our couch. Curled up on his steadily rising chest is a cat that is there but is not there. The TV remote control is steadily slipping out of his hand. He is snoring now, but moments before, that man was watching the Last of Us show before falling asleep. Except not really because zombie stories frustrate him because they 'aren’t based in science, Cecil,’ and 'I’ve already synthesized five different antidotes in the event of a zombie outbreak, Cecil.’ But he will watch the episodes anyway, because he knows I love zombie flicks, and I am scared of zombie flicks. And he will let me know when I should avert my eyes before a jumpscare is about to happen. How can you get any sexier than that?”
“A wise man at Ace Hardware Store once imparted these wise words: 'Measure twice, cut once.’ He said this as he was purchasing a lot of plywood, so I’m assuming he had measured once, realized he had made an error after cutting and had to get more material–but his words still ring true. A poll measured once only reveals a snippet of what makes a sexyman sexy. It does not delve into the depth of legacy, the weight of experience, the height of thirst. Sexiness comes in many shapes and sizes. It takes two to tango, and three to cut a mango. And that’s why I never cut my fruit alone.”
“Listeners, I hope that after tonight, when all is said and done, you take a moment to look in the mirror, wave to the faceless woman staring back at you, and appreciate the tumblr sexyman that was inside all of us, all along. Good night, Night Vale. Good night. ”
Nah but let’s talk abt how ppl use disability terms/harmful stereotypes/ derogatory words so casually this disabled pride month (tw ableism below)
The new terms are “sch*zoposting” and “delulu” but shit like this has been around for years and it’s so incredibly frustrating.
Another example is those TikTok POVS about “the weird kid in class” but they are all stereotypes of autistic ppl.
Or the misuse of the word triggered, the misuse of the word OCD, the misuse of gaslighting, of cr*pple, “are you deaf?” “Are you blind?” “Hellen Keller isn’t real.” I could go on and on but I will simply say this.
Disabled people are real people with feelings, emotions and lives. We deserve to use the terms that we need to COMFORTABLY. We deserve to exist without people taking the language used in the context of ourselves and putting it in a negative light.
i’ll just leave this here for anyone who sees “from the river to the sea” as a threat
Reminder that Germany has forbidden the slogan ”from the river to the sea“ to be chanted at protests and the Palestinian flag from being displayed at all in some regions
One of my favorite things about biology is that there are so many diagrams like this that look like shitposts if you remove any and all context from them
With Netanyahu’s initial reaction to the video of the three women hostages, calling it propaganda etc, it’s good to remember that saving hostages is not even the least of israel’s priorities right now, and as it was summed up perfectly:
Rescued hostages who may contradict the narrative are a potential embarrassment.
Dead hostages are capital they can spend to further justify genocide.
Like they literally would rather not! And you have to think about this the next time you hear zionists advertise israel as the “safe haven” for Jewish people around the world
–the Only Mood everyone else knows about: i wanna do THIS and THIS and THIS and THIS and THIS and–SQUIRREL
–galaxy brain: i was listening to the lecture but the prof said something that reminded me of something else and now i’m not sure how much time i was lost in thought
–the tutorial only comes in video format: i’m sorry, but you’ve thrown off the emperor’s groove *hurls product & its tutorial video into the sun*
–damn you hyperfocus: i went to bed intending to wake up and write but this morning i was possessed by a cleanliness spirit and spent the next 14 hours organizing the apartment
–i dont think u tried at all.jpg: did i seriously spend an entire free day refreshing twitter b/c i didn’t want to spend 10 minutes finishing my hw but wouldn’t let myself do anything else until i finished it???? (yes)
–patrick star: *unlocks phone* time to check the weather. *opens twitter* the weather. *opens messenger* the weather. *opens mobage game* the weather. *opens facebook* the weather. *opens twitter again* THE WEA–
–smells like depression: literally everything is too boring. i’m going back to sleep
Found it.
It’s difficult to tell because *gestures* Tumblr, but this is the post that actually got me to get tested for ADHD. I reblogged it back in late 2018 like “Wait, the video tutorial issue is a symptom of ADHD? Do I have ADHD? Surely not,” and a bunch of readers responded “Did…did you not know? Because you very clearly do, we all thought you were just being discreet about it.”
And then it took me three and a half years to get a diagnosis.
Although being fair to me, if you’ve ever tried to get tested for ADHD as an adult, just getting a motherfucker to call you back about setting up the test is a task. And after spending all of 2019 trying to accomplish that and failing, I then couldn’t get to a testing facility because of a global pandemic.
Anyway, thanks OP for the post, it only took me five years to find it again, but you did a good day’s work.
Don’t ever let anyone tell you it’s not okay to rest. Don’t let anyone tell you to just push through your pain because “you’ll be in a ton of pain anyway, right?” You deserve rest. Your body may be used to constant, unbearable pain, but when you start doing extra things your body may need a second to adjust. Yes, you’ll be in pain anyways, but don’t let someone override your personal experiences because they want to get somewhere faster. It doesn’t matter if you did jumping jacks yesterday, today you need a rest and dammit you deserve it.
so international space station astronauts apparently dropped a tool bag during a spacewalk. and if you look outside when the ISS is in your region, you can see it with binoculars
The tool bag is now orbiting our planet just ahead of the ISS with a visual magnitude of around 6, according to EarthSky. That means it is slightly less bright than the ice giant Uranus, the seventh planet from the sun. As a result, the bag — officially known as a crew lock bag — is slightly too dim to be visible to the unaided eye, but skywatchers should be able to pick it up with binoculars.
To see it for yourself, first find out when you can find spot the space station over the next few months (NASA even has a new app to help you). The bag should be floating two to four minutes ahead of the station. As it descends rapidly, the bag is likely to disintegrate when it reaches an altitude of around 70 miles (113 kilometers) over Earth.
whenever one of my posts is tagged #fave or whatever i like to take a look around in there, check the curation and all that, see how prestigious the club i’ve been inducted into is

To everyone saying “Frankenstein is the doctor, that’s a picture of Frankenstein’s monster”:
Nuh uh
Source: I never make mistakes, therefore no mistake was made with this poll.
So to clarify. This poll IS ABOUT THE MONSTER. The monster who’s name is Frankenstein. This poll is not about any doctors of any kinds. Least of all ones that steal the names of monsters.
also, a friendly reminder, the world we live in now consists of an active genocide.
of warcrimes being posted on twitter by the official account of israeli government.
of people looking at children, women and men being bombed, killed, starved and butchered and saying it is okay because of a single terrorist group, THAT ISRAEL CREATED.
of westerners saying to look away from the slaughter happening in gaza because your mental health is more important than thousands of lives.
of israeli politicians straight up using propaganda from nazi handbooks to dehumanise palestinians, calling them less than human, less than the rest of us, animals.
and what one palestinian man posted on his social media hit me more than anything: “if we actually were animals, people would care.”
