tbh i don’t respect people who say “but what if i pirate it?” when asked to boycott a movie/game/show/etc. in this specific instance, the new captain america movie. do you really need to watch the zionist movie? the movie from the franchise that abuses its workers and is oversaturated with cgi? that movie? grow up
“If voting changed anything they wouldn’t let people do it-” grabs your faceTHEY DIDN’T JUST “LET” PEOPLE DO IT, MOST PEOPLE COULDN’T VOTE FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS. PEOPLE OF COLOR ONLY GOT THE FULL RIGHT TO VOTE 50 YEARS AGO IN THE US, THATS BARELY A GENERATION.
IF IT DIDNT MATTER AT ALL WHY WOULD THEY SPEND SO MUCH TIME GERRYMANDERING THE SHIT OUT OF EVERYWHERE?? WHY CAN’T FELONS VOTE?? WHY CANT PUERTO RICO VOTE? WHY DO THEY KEEP SWITCHING DATES AND LAWS AND TIMES AND WHATEVER THEY POSSIBLY CAN TO STOP PEOPLE FROM VOTING?? WHY DO THEY MAKE EFFORT AT ALL??
BEING DISILLUSIONED IS A REASONABLE RESPONSE. BUT PEOPLE FOUGHT AND DIED AND ARE STILL FUCKING DYING FOR THAT RIGHT, DONT SPIT IN THEIR FACE.
This is in no way the best way to post it but it is the only way I could get the format to stay
[ID: A poem titled “A Detailed Step by Step Guide on How to Hunt”. It is formatted as a numbered list with indented sub-points.
1. Grab a rifle
2. Make sure it’s Dad’s. Not to make him proud, but to show someone else: Look. You can do it too. 2b. (You can do it better.)
3. Dirty your hands. 3b. (Cleanliness is wasted where you’re going.)
4. Pick a night when the sky is clear. When the moon is bright and full, resting like a hibernating beast.
5. Make sure the stars aren’t looking. 5b. (This is not for them to see.)
6. Aim. 6b. (Make sure it’s good.)
7. Admire her one last time as she is.
6b. ( Make sure it’s good.)
9. Shoot the moon down. 9b. (Watch it fall. Feel pride swell in your chest. Let it overwhelm you.) 2b. (You can do it better.)
10. The weight of her body crashing to the earth will shake the ground. It will knock you off your feet. It will be heard for miles. 10a. (Her skin splinters and the grass is suddenly powder white. A thousand whisker ghosts wailing before you, reaching for the hole she left in the sky. The trees are skeletons before the grave.) 10b. (You may grow afraid. Let your pride protect you.)
11. Approach your trophy. 11a. (Show no reverence for it. The reverence is yours, and yours alone.) 11b. (The ground will look like it is covered in snow. Your boots will be warmed by the blood.) 2b. (You can do it better.)
12. Gut it until it’s hollow. Scrape the bones clean with your nails, if you must.
13. Craft a rifle from the bone. 6b. (Make sure it’s good.) 13c. (Make sure it’s better.)
14. Marvel at your creation. 14a. (You did it better.)
15. The stars will notice it is gone. They will start to scream. 15b. (They will sound like cicadas from destruction itself. Some will sing, wherein their voices will never escape your head. I cannot tell you what they will sound like.) 15c. (They’re falling. They’re soaring through a dark sky that will stay dark without her.) 15d. (People will be making wishes on their bodies. Try to tell yourself this is beneficial. Their grief has made them beautiful.) 15e. (Try to let your pride protect you.) 15f. (You will fail.)
16. Regret it.
16. Regret it. 16a. (Regret it.) 16b. (Regret it. Regret it.)
16. Regret it. 16c. (There is nothing left to do.) 14a. (You did it better.)
17. Grieve until 16c. (There is nothing left to do.)
18. Find something to replace it. 18a. (Like a seed, a hope, a silver lining.) 18b. (Anything to fix your mistake.) 13c. (You can make it better.)
19. Bury it in the corpse.
20. Wait for something to happen. 20a. (Nothing will.) 20b. (Death has already run too deep into the ground.) 20c. (The stars have almost completely fallen away. You can still hear their cries. You’re starting to worry your ears might bleed. You can’t be certain silence will ever be a part of your life ever again.) 16c. (There is nothing left to do.)
21. Wonder what he would think. What either of them would think. 21a. (He was always so soft. He would start weeping.) 21b. (The idea of this will hurt more than any of the stars.) 5b. (This is not for them to see.)
22. Give up.
23. It’s getting cold.
24. Is it because of what you did?
25. Something has to replace it.
26. Crawl inside the body you massacred. Leave your new rifle behind,
27. Curl up. Become as small as you can in the carnage of your achievement. Let it overwhelm you. 26a. (It’s still warm. You wonder what its pulse sounded like.) 26b. (Was it human?) 23. It’s getting cold,
28. Realize how pathetic you really are.
29. Think of how the sun will feel.
30. Try not to think about how the sun will feel
31. Tell yourself the truth 31a. (Your pride can’t protect you.) 31b. (It never could.) 5b. (This is not for them to see.) 3b. (Cleanliness is wasted where you’re going.) 26b. (Was it human?) 13c. (You can make it better.) 15f. (You will fail.) 16c. (There is nothing left to do.)
32. Realize this is where you were always meant to be. End ID]
this has the sound of something Jennifer Egan would’ve written
slowly and subtly doxx yourself with a series of posts like “ahh i love opening my window and smelling the sea,” and “i wish the nearest paintball place was closer than 25 miles… :(”
The first sentence says 32 and 13 implying that the speaker is 32 years old and their girlfriend is 13 years old, which is both highly inappropriate and illegal. The next sentence reveals the speaker was talking about their game levels, not their ages, which is perfectly okay.
In their reply to the audience they then say they are picking her up from middle school, again implying that their girlfriend is underage, but quickly state she’s grading papers letting us know she’s a teacher, definitely an adult, and there no reason to be upset.
The rollercoaster gif portrays how switching from upset and worried to relieved in such a short period of time feels emotionally.
The next meme shows the guy panicking from misunderstanding, then feeling relieved and calm realizing the truth, only to panic over the next misunderstanding and then calm again when hearing the end.
the above explanation is followed by a picture of data from star trek with a speech bubble’s tail coming out of him, implying he’s the one saying all of that, which is humerous because the above text is written in a style similar to his speech patterns, and with a subject matter he would enjoy
This is the worst website ever and I love it.
I’d rather see Tumblr die than see it stop being like this.
This, this is why I’m alive.
Fighting the urge to send this to my star trek nerd dad
it’s so bizarre when animated American films are set in a certain location and then only certain characters have the accents of that place. It makes no damn sense!! like
WHY IS SHE MORE FRENCH THAN THE REST OF THEM???
WHY ARE THESE GUYS MORE SCOTTISH THAN THE KIDS??
(also, aren’t they Vikings or something?)
To be fair, almost everyone in Ratatouille does have a French accent. The real question is why Linguini and also all the rats sound intensely American
If it was just the rats I’d say it’s because the movie can be interpreted to mean that the rats understand but don’t necessarily speak human languages so the rat dialog isn’t literally taking place the way we see it but that doesn’t explain why Linguini has a rat accent
LINGUINI HAS A RAT ACCENT
Do we ever hear like
For sure that Linguini grew up in France tho?
It could be possible he’s just an American immigrant
I mean his name is Alfredo Linguini so I always assumed he was Italian
I’m sorry his first name is Alfredo?
What
ALFREDO???
he’s American you guys his mother was American it was mentioned in the beginning
I’m sorry, I’ve moved on to the fact his mother was going through her cupboard for baby names
Alfredo was a name before it was a sauce let’s go over the movie from the top again
This is Alfredo di Lelio (right) the inventor of fettuccine Alfredo, he’d come out to the table and make it in front of you by hand
The chap on the left is an airport
I think you might have your left and right mixed up, my friend
Kinda fucked up and nasty how vampires drink blood, imo. Like. Pepsi costs a dollar seventy five
Hospital
Not me I’m paying a dollar seventy five. At the hospital
I feel like we’re getting off topic
So is pepsi if you steal it?
Because it’s only a dollar seventy five
Why in God’s name would a vampire drink pepsi
Why would anyone drink Pepsi?
Huh?
That’s why I’m not a fan of the sexy vampire trope.
1. It’s overused and supports the current status quote of typical vampire supremacy:worshiping rich folk.
2. Vampires prey upon humans and therefore symbolize capitalists preying on the working class.
3. Werewolves are much sexier imo.
am I having a stroke????
you might want to go to the hospital then
I hear the Pepsi is cheaper there
Enter DAISY GRIME, a CLOWN, accompanied by FOOLS, HARLEQUINS, and JESTERS.
GRIME I say ‘tis dirty, wicked, foul, and dark – An opportunity both miss’d and scorn’d – That vampires of any shape or shade Would drink the blood of innocence most pure When Pepsi costs a dollar sev’nty five.
FIRST FOOL O lady, I must ask, and tell the truth: Wherever in this God’s green holy land Canst thou obtain this drink for such a fee? I’ve seen no less than fifty-five pence more.
GRIME A hospital, good sir.
SECOND FOOL (Does some figures) And might I ask Wherever in this land (of any hue) Is fellow who two dollar thirty pence Dost pay for si of Pep?
GRIME Not I, i’faith. I pay a mere two shillings short of two. And, once again, I pay in hospital.
CANADIAN JESTER I pay a hefty two and half for mine. But in my blood runs maple syrup, too.
GRIME O Jester fine, I pray thee, still thyself. Thou stray’st from this, our mode of speaking here.
FIRST FOOL But blood costs naught but time.
SECOND JESTER Aye, that is true; But sir, remember this in figuring: A Pepsi, too, is free, if stolen ‘tis.
FIRST FOOL I see, but – wait, another thought occurs. Wherefore, I ask thee, for what reason, sirs, Dost Lady Grime buy Pepsi from the house Of healing, birth, and death?
GRIME ‘Tis simple, friend. Allow me to explain to thee the cause. The Pepsi sold by those who follow in The footsteps of St. Luke, Evangelist Is sold for a mere dollar sev’nty five.
FIRST HARLEQUIN (Aside, to SECOND HARLEQUIN) Why wouldst a vampire drink Pepsi, then?
SECOND HARLEQUIN (Aside, to FIRST HARLEQUIN) Why wouldst an honest man drink Pepsi, sir?
FIRST FOOL A femboy, it would seem.
(There is general applause and agreement.)
GRIME O fool, a what?
Enter KONAHRIKS De’ACTIVAT EDZOZ ESQ., a SCHOLAR and WARD OF THE SKY.
WARD You see, my friends, this selfsame story tells The truth of why the incubus’s tale Is one that bears to no more to be declared. I’ll tell you all my reasons three. The first: The wealthy ghoul who drinks the common blood Is overused and stale, like molding bread; But also hangs upon the teller’s face A pallid, gasping idol worship mask. The second mark I tally here along: A vampire who sucks the blood from men Does hold up in the mind a mirror cold. This mirror shows that, far from fantasy, The vampire is real, ‘tis Elon Musk. The reason third is simple, clean, and pure: A werewolf’s just, like, sexier, my dudes.
(GRIME dances like a ferret. There is rejoicing.)
Exeunt.
Enter LARA, FELAGUND, and SHERLOCK, accompanied by the MANGO MERCHANT.
LARA I feel these words have struck me to my core. Is this, the world, collapsing to the ground Or is it just my weary, shaking soul?
FELAGUND ‘Twould seem my lady needs to see St. Luke.
SHERLOCK I’ve heard his fellows sell a Pepsi cheap.
… that’s mostly practical effects, not “montage”, but
HECK YEAH THAT’S SO AWESOME
… OH
yeah no i had a brain fart and got that confused with “photomontage” ^^° (as if “montage de photos” was… idk… a bad translation that i automatically corrected? yeah bilingual brain do weird stuff :| )
When vampires are portrayed as mainly preying on women that’s so unrealistic like I’m sorry but they’re too careful especially around strange men. Dudes are much easier. You could literally lurk in a bush in the park at night and call out “whoa look at this fucked up looking squirrel” and have 3 grown men climb in immediately
Also almost every woman I know has low blood pressure and so many are anemic. Men make for much better prey because 1) easy to catch yes and 2) so much more blood
Just so long as the vampire understands that those three guys in the park at night are probably drunk af so the quality of the blood won’t be that great
That’s how we— I mean they, the vampires, get white girl wasted actually
That’s how we— I mean
they, the vampires, get white girl
wasted actually
Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
Putting this as a meme so maybe y'all will actually read it.
Held: Under our constitutional structure of separated powers, the nature of Presidential power entitles a former President to absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for actions within his conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority. And he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts. There is no immunity for unofficial acts.
And this is why we cannot let Trump win another term: he now has complete immunity for any acts he “officially” performs as president. You thought he was bad before? Now he will have zero fear. He will do whatever he wants. And what he wants is outlined in Project 2025.
Actually fuck it. This is important enough to where it goes on the popular alt.
Voting still fucking matters! Cause not has Trump EXPLICITLY STATED that he will support the Palestinian genocide as much if not more then Biden, but he is also gonna pull this shit.
I haven’t seen this circulating here on Tumblr, so I decided to make my own post.
last saturday, in Porto, there was a pride parade going down the street and this old man was standing there, by his front door, waving the portuguese flag. most people on the parade probably thought the same: old person waving the national flag? he’s probably protesting against the parade, he’s a nationalist of some sort.
then the old man called for that person to come near him. the whole parade stopped. everyone just.. stopped moving. they didn’t know what to expect, and most expected the worst. and that person decided to give him the benefit of the doubt and approached the old man. and then… they traded flags, he hugged the person and then he waved the pride flag happily. everyone cheered him.
such a wholesome moment. 🥹❤️🌈
(edited to add the link to the video, in case the twitter post gets deleted or smth)
i just saw this on twitter.. such a lovely drawing, I just had to add it to this post 🥰
I love how the search function on this site is absolute garbage. I can look up a post word for word and I will NEVER find it
Pro tip:
Wanna find a post?
Write out what you remember into a Google search.
After you write that out, end with site:tumblr.com
Google will search for your text on just tumblr
In my experience, it’s way more effective than searching through Tumblr
(you can use site:SITENAME.com to search any site btws)
This usually works but for some reason a lot of posts get indexed on google from a person’s URL based on the posts that were recently reblogged on page 1, meaning that this is only a tiny bit more reliable.
I HAVE a solution to this, you have to write down site:tumblr.com/post “ “
and then write a direct quote (could be a fraction of a sentence) into the quotations, I’ve been doing this for years, and it’s so useful, it works like 99% of the time
(the more popular a post is the more likely you’ll find it)
you’re a genius holy shit
Just used this to find a post I’ve been desperately searching for, thank you so much
I totally forgot that eating a meal can improve your mood dramatically. I was depressed a minute ago but now I’m literally having a good time. what a concept
i went out for milk and ended up making like 6 new friends, marching in a parade, reuniting with one of my childhood friends, watched a drag queen eviserate a piñata and also forgot to buy the milk
i think for everyone’s general safety we should start using this specific image like a forum signature at the end of every single post we make for the next little while
Yes yes, I too am very sad and annoyed that Trump is not dead, I got all breathlessly excited and queued up “Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead” to be ready for a great announcement, and then I didn’t even get to play it. It’s a huge bummer.
However, step two of this huge bummer is NOT “Oh no and now his fandom will be EVEN MORE ANNOYING, we have basically already lost :((((” That is the devil speaking. Step two is to say “Ah heck, his fandom is going to be even more annoying, better FUCKING VOTE AND MAKE SURE EVERYONE I KNOW ALSO VOTES”
Stop your worthless defeatism, stop your stupid pessimism, stop trying to GIVE UP AND SURRENDER just cause one weird thing happened.
