like idk theres something rly sad to me about “i could make this” as a derogatory statement abt art. like, that’s really the state of it, huh, where the average person imagines themselves so disconnected from art and creation that a comparison between an artist and them automatically brings the artist down. people can make art. you can make art.
The images that Israel claims are of fighters arrested and stripped in Gaza include a journalist and his family, two teenage boys, one United Nations employee, and the director of an UNRWA school.
rotating individual blorbos separately is great and all but i rotate pairs of characters together as one, spinning around each other, like a pair of celestial bodies in orbit. blorbit, if you will
It’s important to me that everyone understands that if you’ve got an autistic friend who periodically sends you pictures/videos/whatever of your Thing, because they know you’re into it… They love you.
Now don’t get me wrong, It may not necessarily be romantic love, they might not want to run off to a little farm in Montana where you’ll be married forever and raise little sheeps…
But they definitely love you. And they’re so happy when they spot a post about X and go “ooh, my friend likes X! I’ll send it to them!”.
Because they love you and want you to be happy.
Happiness is stored in the 3am discord DM of a link to a Tumblr post of a cute raccoon
Neurotypical people might do this too for the same reason, but I can’t speak for them. I don’t understand how they work.
yall have got to be more normal about Southern people and I’m not kidding. enough of the Sweet Home Alabama incest jokes, enough of the idea that all Southerners are bigots and rednecks, and enough of the idea that the South has bad food. shut up about “trailer trash” and our accents and our hobbies!
do yall know how fucking nauseating it is to hear people only bring up my state to make jokes about people in poverty and incestuous relationships? how much shame I feel that I wasn’t born up north like the Good Queers and Good Leftists with all the Civilised Folk with actual houses instead of small cramped trailers that have paper thin walls that I know won’t protect me in a bad enough storm?
do yall know how frustrating it is to be trans in a place that wants to kill you and whenever you bring it up to people they say “well just move out” instead of sympathizing with you or offering help?
do yall understand how alienating it is to see huge masterposts of queer and mental health resources but none of them are in your state because theyre all up north? and nobody seems to want to fix this glaring issue because “they’re all hicks anyways”
Southern people deserve better. we deserve to be taken seriously and given a voice in the queer community and the mental health space and leftist talks in general.
There once was a young Christian boy who ate cigarettes. Every day he would eat more and more, but he would not die because he prayed while he ate the cigarettes. He ate so many cigarettes that he grew to tremendous size. When the boy finally died, the priests wrapped him in a great silken funeral cloth. It was then that the heavens opened, and from the clouds descended the hand of God, who plucked the tremendous cigarette boy from his casket. It was then that God lit a flame and smoked him.

Has Hbomberguy ever apologised for the rape apologism?
“
It should be made clear that this is NOT how you handle a case where someone has an issue with any member of your circle’s behavior, much less a mod and production team member. What this shows is Hbomberguy clearly does not know how to go about handling situations like this, and in a great demonstration of irony, he actively tried to manipulate the situation and perpetuate the same culture that his very videos critique.
Most people aren’t even aware this ever happened and the “apology” which he did make is nowhere to be found, along with any video on his channel that existed before his videos were racking up millions of views.
Today I was talking with my mom about why seeing an alligator is fundamental to my mental health. At first she laughed but I got her to listen and she gets it now. My psychiatrist and I call this the alligator litmus test, and it works really well for making decisions about my treatment. I bring this up because perhaps there is something in your life that you can use in a similar fashion.
I have severe major depressive disorder, and I treat this depression with medication. I’ve been on meds for about… seven years now, and sometimes we have to mess with them. But sometimes the emotional part of the depression is just super bad and there’s something underneath that needs to be addressed. When we are figuring this out, my psychiatrist says to take one alligator and call her in the morning.
See, no matter how bad I’m feeling, seeing an alligator almost always cheers me up in the moment. (This works with other large crocodilians, too- they gotta be big, it doesn’t work with caimans. I don’t know why.) I can’t look at their goofy toofers and beautiful eyes and bumpy hides and not be a little wowed by them. Millions of years of evolution have led to this amazing creature and they are completely unbothered by me. Almost all of the time, they make me feel happy. Or maybe I’ll feel sad for some unspecified reason. Maybe I’ll get worried about the ecosystem or something- but invariably, I will FEEL.
Unless, of course, it’s my brain chemistry. If I can experience an alligator and not feel anything- not happy, not sad, just numb- there’s something wrong and we should talk about adjusting my meds. Usually with a little tweaking I’m back to my very functional medicated baseline in quick order- instead of wasting time with coping skills and such alone when what I really need is brain chemicals, it’s a much quicker way to communicate what’s going on with me. At the same time, it also helps me know when the coping skills ARE likely to work without changing up my meds, or when there’s something I need to work through with some help.
It’s a pretty solid test. Might not work for anyone else on the planet, but it works great for me!

This is honest to god one of the funniest things I think I have ever seen. The idea of giving a baby a theme party based on a local personal injury attorney is something i am so jealous of I dont know how to properly put it into words.
Also the fact that the lawyer didn’t come to the party somehow makes it even funnier.
this is the kind of content i came here for
he didnt come to the party because he sees the baby as a future opponent
what the fuck
I admit I don’t know how a child’s brain works but as an adult the greatest sign of respect I feel capable of giving a child is to act as if they are prophesized to destroy me when they come of age.
just started playing the outer wilds and it is terrifying to me. I love the music and the lil alien guys but then you’re blasting off into space in a simple little space craft and you can end up Hurtling through space uncontrollably until you run out of oxygen This is a cute little Nightmare
Based on Israel’s security assessment, so it’s not “Hamas propaganda”
Why did they open fire on the festival? Soon, they’ll say it was to attack Hamas terrorists, so they can attack Israeli citizens and blame Hamas. It’s highly unlikely that hamas killed so many people, and launched that big of an attack without Israel detecting it for a year prior. And yet they apparently know every place where hamas is hiding. There are lies here somewhere.
dreamed that kindergarten nap was called sleep class and everybody went to sleep including the teacher. if you were awake it would get a little bit foggy outside and grey and cloudy, and these guys would start approaching the classroom from behind the tree line (forgive my shitty phone drawing)
and they were at least a story tall, some of them were taller, you could see their legs over the trees. they would approach very slowly. this one (the one i drew) had a name for some reason, his name is kick.
before i was totally awake my brain conjured a meme of a bunch of these guys approaching from the treeline and a child watching from the window with the caption “when you the only one awake in sleep class 😂😳😏”
ok this is TERRIFYINGLY close to what i saw in my head while i was sleeping thank you.
ITS HERE. THE CREEPY SLEEP CLASS POST. DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I WOULD SCROLL ON INSTA OR WATCH A TUMBLR COMP ON YOUTUBE AND SEE THIS?? YEEHOO
this comment is such a terrifying glimpse of the reach of this post into internet zones beyond my perception, thank you

unpopular opinion that might get me jfk killed but i see the rise of aphobia/acephobia/arophobia on tumblr as a sign that the forgotten exclusionists are leaving twitter/x and coming back here, and that’s bad for the tumblr environment, damn
in retrospect it’s pretty funny that the most used computer port for many years just completely sucked shit to the point of there being normie memes about it
we as a society lived like this for years and years
I mean when your biggest tech issue is “takes an extra 10 seconds (at most) to plug in if you’re not paying attention” that’s pretty good! Imagine if you had a printer and the printer’s biggest problem was that the paper took a few tries to insert into the tray. You’d want to fuck that printer.

No-fault divorce is actually very recent. That is, a divorce just because you wanted to get divorced and not because they were guilty of some provable transgression. California’s no-fault divorce law was 1966; the latest US state, it was 2010. When I was in Catholic school, we were taught to believe in and promote anti-no-fault-divorce positions. This is very recent history, and you cannot take even this for granted. Stop being “edgy” about feminism and its flaws. Every movement will have some flaws. But do you not think that this, and the risk it represents, is significant to women as a class of all backgrounds?
Hey fun fact the reason the murder rate went down when no fault divorce was introduced was because beforehand when women were being abused they would just kill their husbands. do not come at this post with the “well abused people can still get out” like good fucking luck ask any actual abuse victem how the courts been to them ill wait
It’s the other way around. The spousal murder rate didn’t drop because angry women no longer snapped and killed their husbands - it dropped because abusive husbands no longer had access to easy victims.
ALT
No-fault divorce saves women’s lives and removes a lot of men’s access to easy targets for abuse, and that’s why they’re trying to get rid of it.
This made me cry. I wish all situations could be handled as perfectly as this
I just want to point out the core of what the diffuser did in this conversation
They recognized that the mother was also expressing a vulnerable truth about herself - that she felt like a bad mother because her child was expressing gender feelings she wasn’t equipped to help with - and met her where she was, a concerned parent with limited information - to point her where she should be heading, research and resources.
Im going to make more of an effort to stop reflexively pushing people away when they express biases and make more of an effort to hear the underlying fears when i can
“it’s easier to love ourselves when we feel loved as ourselves”
People trying to pathologize like eating sweets and jerking off is wild. “I stopped doing this thing that feels good and I want more now ?? So this is an addiction and I have to keep avoiding it until the craving goes away” no you just want to enjoy things because you’re a human being. Chocolate and porn and whatever aren’t, like. Meth. It won’t kill you to feel good. You don’t have to be a medieval monk
Like yes it’s possible to have an unhealthy relationship with whatever gives you the easiest dopamine hit but the thing is that that’s more symptomatic of, like. Being depressed. Than pleasure itself being evil and bad for you
Since I live in a row house, I live in only a moderate amount of fear that my neighbors are going to do something stupid enough to render my home unlivable. Imagine you’re in the fucking suburbs, and your whole house falls underground because your neighbor has enough privilege to sidestep consequences for, and even builds a successful social media presence on, her untreated mania.
I guess friendly reminder that you can’t actually judge someone’s socioeconomic status based on what they own and the classic republican “they can’t be poor they own a smart phone/computer” argument doesn’t suddenly stop being complete out of touch nonsense when a poor person makes it.
Anyway insert “y'all can’t be trusted to eat the rich bcs you’ll target taco bell shift leaders and people with playstations instead of actual billionaires” post here.
I have begun to see this kind of vindictive eat the rich language directed towards say, Youtubers who like….own their own house and live somewhat comfortably while having to put away for the future because this won’t last forever and do extremely little exploitative work in comparison to, you know….tech billionaires and multi-hundred-millionaires who exploit labour out of people.
Not even luxury brand, GRWM in my Balenciaga flex lifestyle youtubers. Just like someone on the level of having a couple of million viewers and trying to do comedy reactions etc.
No guillotine licenses.
I’ve seen “eat the rich” ire directed towards people who make poverty wages because they have some sort of success online or popularity. And it doesn’t even have to be success! Like. I had someone lash out at me for posting mockups of products that I want people to buy, as though the hustle was evidence of untold billions.
Like. Ma'am. If I were The Rich, I would not be posting about a NerdyKeppie sale on my personal BlueSky at 2 am.
I got ire directed towards me for having a cleaner come in…. I’m disabled and spend pretty much all of my disposable income on getting a cleaner every so often, so my partner doesn’t have to do all the chores. It leaves me with a clean house and no money.
The majority of my cleaner’s clients are pretty poor, or disabled,or both. My partner males okish money, but we live in one of the most expensive cities in the world and he is also a video game designer, if you think they make a lot of money you’re dreaming.
Literally any other colour would’ve been a better choice guys.
I’d like to point out that the colour red has more positive than negative meanings.
im sorry but this reply absolutely killed me
red can mean whatever the heck you want it to mean, that is never going to change that this straight up looks like they DRAGGED A BLOODY BODY ACROSS THE FUCKING FLOOR 😂
Hi fun fact, colors do have meaning and there is a legit thing called color theory. Red does has more positive connotations than negative like the @mintymaiden said. Red is associated with more love, lust, passion than blood and death just like the chart shows you but If you want, here’s a link for you to check it out yourself. Also, check out “The Designer’s Dictionary of Color” by Sean Adams. Have fun learning something
You can theorize to Nebraska and back but that doesn’t change my immediate reaction which is that someone is literally dragging a corpse around
I like that the presumption here is that “No One On Tumblr Has Heard of Color Theory, Let Me Explain in Depth” rather than simply acknowledging that the VISUAL EFFECTS of this particular color choice, applied in the manner it was, can still amount to “this is a hospital and that looks like blood”
like, color theory doesn’t exist in a vacuum. If your design of choice for Blood Red Paint is asymmetric splatters and sploches against the wall, or in this case, a snail trail on the hallway’s floor, an infographic won’t override the viewers’ instinct.
OP: this paint job looks like a blood stain
Tumblr: actually, according to color theory, it looks like love.
To please both sides yellow would have been much happier and uplifting, it also wouldn’t look like a corpus was dragged all over
i am begging you to please consider why yellow would actually be just as bad
omg just use brown, brown is a very neutral color with no ulterior context as a smear trail on a hospital floor 🟤 🤎 :)
