I hate you forced random pairings at the last minute, I hate you love at first sight, I hate you “they’re obviously more than friends”, I hate you pity for single people, I hate you virgin jokes, I hate you amatonormative/allonormative media
so apparently Minecraft did this thing where people submitted their own builds to be made into steel structures that would be used to regrow coral in coral reefs, and one of the ones that got selected is a fishwolf, so now there is an actual physical minecraft wolf mermaid hybrid at the bottom of the ocean saving the coral reefs and i am living
I'm convinced the mod behind this account is trans

Stoppa talking fucking crazy. Thissa the official true and-a honest account of Photographia Matteo Mollewaggi! I’mma 100 percenta cis male anda prouda of it! Red-a wine and red-a meat, every-a day, signore!!
House in 2024 would have house come in calling a patient “it” and foreman, chase and Cameron would be like “woah what the hell house you can’t call a person an it” only for house to tell them to look at the patients pronouns on the chart for the pronouns to be it/it’s and house is like “unlike you all I actually respect people’s pronouns”
all goofing aside I genuinely don’t understand the urge to reimagine Taylor Allison Swift as a secretly queer icon when the pop music scene™ is like. literally overflowing with women who actually like women. Gaga and Kesha and Miley and Halsey are right there. Rina Sawayama and Hayley Kiyoko and Rebecca Black and Kehlani and Victoria Monét and Miya Folick if you’re willing to get slightly less top 100. Janelle and Demi for them nonbinary takes on liking girls. like what are we doing here. like I’m not even saying you can’t enjoy Taylor but why would you hang all your little gay hopes on her.
Isn’t Lady Gaga bisexual?
yes that is indeed why she’s on the list of famous women who like women
why have multiple people reblogged this with some horse-assed “um actually most of these people are bi or pan” did I fucking stutter I said they like girls. what is your point. I’m going to kill you.
POV: you make a good post and then encounter tumblr reading comprehension
btw to just clarify for anyone who sees this reblog of this post
op is basically saying something along the lines of “yea ik taylor swift is bi but like. why is she y'all’s only lgbtq+ pop icon when there are all these other lgbtq+ people in the pop scene???”
i might have worded this badly but hopefully i got the main point across
hi op here I certainly did not fucking say Taylor Swift is bi
Op is saying that liking Taylor for being QUEER or Lgbtqia+ is not a bad thing, but to also know she is not the only one.
He did not call anyone in the original post lesbian bi or pan.
op: carrots are not fruits. raspberries and apples and blueberries and pears and lingonberries are fruits. i’m not saying you can’t enjoy carrots but why would you hang all your fruitsalad hopes on it
idiot 1: aren’t raspberries berries?
op: yes that is indeed why it’s on the list of fruit
op: why have multiple people reblogged this with “umm actually most of these are berries”. did i fucking stutter i said they’re fruits. i’m going to kill you
idiot 2: btw just to clarify op is saying “yeah i know carrots are a fruit but there are other fruits too”
op: where in the sweet mary mother of cunt did i say that carrots were a fruit
idiot 3: op is saying that liking carrots for being fruits isn’t a bad thing, but to also know they are not the only fruit

look, I know I’ve talked about this essay (?) before but like,
If you ever needed a good demonstration of the quote “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic”, have I got an exercise for you.
Somebody made a small article explaining the basics of atomic theory but it’s written in Anglish. Anglish is basically a made-up version of English where they remove any elements (words, prefixes, etc) that were originally borrowed from romance languages like french and latin, as well as greek and other foreign loanwords, keeping only those of germanic origin.
What happens is an english which is for the most part intelligible, but since a lot everyday english, and especially the scientific vocabulary, has has heavy latin and greek influence, they have to make up new words from the existing germanic-english vocabulary. For me it kind of reads super viking-ey.
Anyway when you read this article on atomic theory, in Anglish called Uncleftish Beholding, you get this text which kind of reads like a fantasy novel. Like in my mind it feels like it recontextualizes advanced scientific concepts to explain it to a viking audience from ancient times.
Even though you’re familiar with the scientific ideas, because it bypasses the normal language we use for these concepts, you get a chance to examine these ideas as if you were a visitor from another civilization - and guess what, it does feel like it’s about magic. It has a mythical quality to it, like it feels like a book about magic written during viking times. For me this has the same vibe as reading deep magic lore from a Robert Jordan book.
If I was the woman who was arrested for dramatically throwing a milkshake over Nigel Farage, I would be absolutely devastated that the Daily Mail is advertising my OnlyFans.
my most boomer ass take is that i hate when i unmute a video of a cat and its just the most obnoxiously loud pop music playing over it. bro put that shit away i’m here to listen to your cat. i wanna hear what he has to say.
Okay, this might be an unpopular opinion, but if you want to combat the spread of misinformation then you have to let go of any belief that people not talking about an issue means that they don’t care. The only way to reduce the spread of misinformation and disinformation is to research claims before you spread them, and there is so much information constantly being thrown at people through social media and the 24 hour news cycle that it’s impossible to fact check every claim. The same can be said about AI generated images, if you look closely then you can notice certain tells that something is AI generated but no one really has the time to analyze every single image that crosses their path.
If we expect people to talk about and spread information on every social/political/economic issue that occurs then the result will be that people will spread misinformation/disinformation because they will not have the time or mental capacity to research every single thing that happens on Earth just to make sure that they aren’t being fed incorrect information.
Only researching claims that set off a red flag or seem incorrect doesn’t actually do much to prevent misinformation, because there are plenty of claims that will seem correct on the surface or that will align with your view of the world that you won’t think to research. You have to research every claim if you want to avoid misinformation, and you can’t research every claim made by someone online.
The only solution is to accept that some people aren’t going to talk about certain issues, not because they don’t care, but because they have chosen to focus on other issues for the time being and don’t want to talk about an issue that they don’t know much about. And we really need to stop treating that like a bad thing. If you spread yourself too thin then you’re not going to accomplish anything. It’s actually good to have people devoting themselves to learning about and fighting a specific issue, that’s how progress is made.
my personal argument for open borders is really simple it just boils down to “i believe restricting human movement and barring certain people from certain places on this earth is a human rights violation”
cringe isnt an insult. if you find me cringe that means i have power over you. im having a fucking blast while youre seething with vitriol at my very existence. whos really winning here
i always give a lazy two finger salute when cars stop for me at a crosswalk and it’s devolved so much that at this point I feel like an icon of jesus whenever I cross the street
car: stops for me at a crosswalk
me:
oh blessed art thou automobile for you have served the meek and humble. go on your way knowing your act of kindness has saved me 2 minutes on my trip to the bodega
the origins of the “what are you two FUCKING talking about??” meme is almost funnier then the meme itself
this is call for everyone to watch snapcube’s real-time fandub series (all of these are improvised with 0 script whatsoever)
I wanna make sure this is clear, this scene DIRECTLY precedes the Eggman “IVE COME TO MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT” scene. Like this scene ends and he launches into that rant
#as a professional carnie i gotta say#wlw have a special inate ability at these games i swear to god#there used to be some kind of year#yearly retreat for?? idk what but it was made of almost entirely butch women#and there would be like a whole day the part was just overrun by gay ladies#and when the catering hall let their party out they all wanted nothing more than clean fucking house for their gifriends and wivesa#we all knew it was coming. wed all be like todays the lesbian day guys get everything stocked#and this isnt like the o be weird or something abt butch women being strong or athletic#i mean they would win games of chance way more often than straight couples#gay dudes do not factor in cuz we all suck balls at those games literally they were all awful#one very out gay coworker i had would openly tell them like look from one of us to another keep walking these arent for us they just arent#but girls? girls dating other girls? it was on sight they all won all the time (via @transkeiichi)
“Today’s the lesbian day guys get everything stocked” is sending me
So, I’m looking into the whole Tumblr discrimination suit thing.
They settled with the CCHR in 2022 because, at the time, they were headquartered there, I believe, but that’s no longer the case. Automattic Inc., and by extension, Tumblr, are headquartered now at 60 29th Street #343 San Francisco, CA 94110
So I believe we’d want to get in touch with the human rights commission in san fransisco instead. I don’t know fuckall about this kind of legal thing though, so someone who either knows more or is better at research should figure out if it’s worthwhile to bring this to the CCHR given that All This Shit is a pretty overt violation of the terms of their settlement with them, even if they are now headquartered elsewhere.
so matt’s absolutely giving scorched earth orders behind the scenes right. Not only are publically visible transfems dropping like flies, but every third person who musters up the audacity to comment negatively on Staff or Matt about this vanishes fucking instantly
Wuhoh this is quickly catching on. If I’m deactivated anytime soon, it’s cuz I got nuked. I’m not going down without a fight. Y'all remember that.
someone reblog this version for posterity. If the only copy is on my blog, that vanishes with me. I honestly doubt i’ll get smote but better safe than sorry yeah? I’ll be fine, but if I’m not, I’m making sure the crime scene is as damning as it gets.
“That sounds like a good idea…….”-“Is there something bothering you with the idea?”-“No, the idea is GOOD…..🙂”
Can someone explain this to me?
Old people use quotation marks to indicate emphasis, as a substitute for italics (which many of them could not produce on the old typewriters they learned to write on), whereas young people use them to indicate sarcasm or falseness. They’re used as “scare quotes”.
And old people use ellipses simply to indicate a pause, or for some other incomprehensible reason I’m not aware of. But young people use ellipses to indicate passive-aggression.
So an old person could type something like:
how are things going with your “boyfriend”….
and what they mean is
How are things going with your boyfriend? [Im so excited for you, sweetie, and I wanna hear about it]
But a young person would interpret that sentence as
How are things going with your so-called boyfriend…. [I say, while seething with contempt for him and possibly for you too]
The linguistic difference across generations is beautifully explained here thank you
any other firefox users unable to watch live streams? twitch shows the streamer as “offline” and youtube just tells me that “Your browser can’t play this video.”
and it’s only through firefox, I go to the same page through microsoft edge and it works just fine
OS is Windows 10 Home if that means anything
THERE WAS AN ABOUT:CONFIG SETTIMG THAT BROKE THIS i don’t remember which one but look around for any pre-loading video stuff
apparently when i first woke up today as my wife’s alarm went off all i did was pick up my phone to type ‘44444444444444444444’ into the emergency call ui before falling back asleep
Everybody does the exact same stupid shit. That white nationalist anon I was getting a while ago would send me story after story of some random black guy or immigrant committing a violent crime against a white person. Well, yeah, people are violent, you’re gonna find those if you go looking for them. And there’s a lot of racial animosity in the world, so you’ll even find racially charged ones if you go looking! No shit, Sherlock. We could play this game all day. You find me a news story of a black guy killing a white guy, I find you a news story of white guy killing a black guy. This does no one any good.
TERFs are identical. News story after news story of a trans woman raping somebody. Yeah, the world is an awful place and people rape each other. I can find you a news story of a cis woman raping a teenage boy and getting three months in jail. I can find you a news story of a cis mom killing her disabled kid cause they’re too much work. But I don’t want to. The world sucks shit, why gorge yourself on the tragedy?
Zionists come up with news story after news story of pro-Palestinian/BDS/whatever protestors being antisemitic. Yep. A lot of people out there hate Jews. And there has been a genuine rise in antisemitism since the Oct. 7th attack, and that’s awful. There are no excuses for that. Do you know what else has happened since then? The Israeli military has slaughtered tens of thousands of Palestinians, including huge numbers of innocent civilians—men, women and children.
People are often terrible to each other. Welcome to Earth. If you go looking for bad actors in a big enough group, you are guaranteed to find them. How about this. What about all the black people who didn’t kill a white little girl? What about the black little girls? What about their hopes and dreams? What about their chance at life? What about all the trans women who didn’t rape anybody in a bathroom? What if they just want to go about their lives, without constant public scrutiny of what genitals they have (as a cis woman, can you empathize with that? Constant public scrutiny of what you’re doing with your genitals?). What about the 30,000 Palestinians who have been killed, and the 70,000 who have been displaced from their homes?
Fear has made you a monster. Fear has driven you to demand slaughter and oppression of innocent people because they look like guilty people you read about on the news, and since they look the same to you, youfeel fearful—how can you tell whether these are the innocent ones or the guilty ones? Best to oppress and slaughter them preemptively just to be safe. I am here to tell you that this twisted logic of self-defense does not hold. I do not care if you feel safe—I do not care if you are safe—if the cost of your safety is innocent life. The world is a risky place. I am not going to deny that. Horrible things could happen to any of us. If we go around preemptively attacking other over it, we do not make it a bit better. And, needless to say, danger comes from everywhere, from every group of human beings, and oppressing the people who make you nervous will not, in fact, deliver you from danger. It just makes you a monster.
I keep saying this. Hate groups share outrage bait among themselves as a form of self-radicalization that winds up twisting their emotional responses so much towards hostility and fear that they end up feeling as if everyone in their outgroup is some kind of vicious threat.
The process is practically the same every time no matter what kind of demographic they want to fearmonger about.

This makes a noise like “mí mí mí mí” as it advances with surprising quickness across the floor. When it comes to a crumb, it goes over it and pauses, then mimimimimimimis away. The crumb is gone. The mouth must be underneath like a starfish, so why does it bother to have a horse head? We discover only later that it uses the horse head to bite small neat semicircles out of your ikea furniture. When it comes in your house, chase it back out with a broom.
