#They definitely should beach each other off

I’m losing my mind laughing at this.

god I hate some of these. but I love some of these too!

you don’t have to have a good reason we’re here to be haters

I love all of these memes--though I've been off Tumblr for a while and don't know what some of them are.

Autistic Lifehack: Hearing Problems

If someone says something that you only partially understand:

DON’T ask for clarification with a generic “What?” or “I’m sorry?” (In my experience, people will repeat the phrase the exact same way without helping you to understand).

Example: Them: “Hey, do you like pahganabasa?” Autistic Person: “What?” Them: “Do you like pahganabasa?” Autistic Person: “I’m sorry, what?” Them (annoyed): “Do you like pahganabasa?”

Instead, DO repeat the part that you did understand, and substitute a “What?” for the unintelligable part.

Example: Them: “Hey, do you like pahganabasa?” Autistic Person: “Do I like what?” Them: “Pineapple pizza?” Autistic Person: (Understands the words!)

I’ve also had successes with “I’m sorry, I only heard the first half of that sentence,” or actually verbalizing my interpretation of the part I heard incorrectly as a question: “Pahgana… basa?”.

Sometimes that makes the speaker think that they might be mumbling, or verbalizing in a way that makes them difficult to understand (because there are times it’s really not your brain–it’s their mouth).

This is also a lifesaver if you have Auditory Processing Disorder. It stopped the amount of annoyed sighs because ppl thought I was deliberately ignoring them or them saying the same thing but louder (which does not help when volume isn’t the problem)

any time i hear the insufferable transphobic athlete arguments i think of that one time in middle school when my boys lacrosse team did a full-contact scrimmage against the girls team (who typically play with limited contact) and i, a six-foot, 180lb defender, got utterly laid-out by this 5-foot-nothing girl experiencing the newly-unleashed animosity accompanied by violent sport and as i looked up at my assailant from flat on my back i experienced a brief bout of heterosexuality and fell wildly in love and then had to be taken to the ER because i had a concussion

“from flat on my back i experienced a brief bout of heterosexuality” took me out

That was the concussion

It's so important to remember that tumblr is bad. Has been bad. And will likely remain bad for the foreseeable future. And that is vital to our survival. If Tumblr was a good website that worked, it would get turned into a corporate hellscape like every other site. It's so important that Tumblr is broken and poorly run and impossible to effectively navigate. It's all that's keeping us safe.

tumblr management know we feel this way though. They’ve just added trackers to sharing urls/links. The first step to targeted advertising, yay!

don’t get complacent about the possibility of tumblr becoming a corporate hellscape

remember that ANY text in a link after a ? is only tracking information and can ALWAYS be safely removed

Concerning the Twitter crash and burn, there's legit people encouraging others not to engage with creators trying to promote things so that Tumblr doesn't become commercialized, and I have to make something very clear:

A small creator who is encouraging people to interact with/share their stuff, trying to make their art/writing/etc known because they want a livable wage when they have NOWHERE ELSE they can turn to anymore and are trying to succeed in an internet that makes it near impossible for them is -never- gonna be the same thing as a celebrity shoving adds into your face to buy their newest clothing brand.

Don't encourage capitalism but do encourage the artists and writers that provide you most of their content for FREE and just want to pay bills like anyone else and already deal with being buried in the algorithm or having their art stolen and reposted.

We don't want adds or for this site to be monetized either, I assure you.

nothing weve posted are even firecrackers compared to this fucking atomic bomb of a post

This is what happens when you’re still on tumblr as an adult, you start reblogging shit like this

So apparently Morbius is returning to like 1000 theatres today in a blatant attempt to cash in on the memes we've all been making.

Listen to me. Look me in the eye while I am saying this to you. Listen.

It is of the utmost importance that absolutely no one goes to see this movie now. That is the best and indeed the only way we can end this horrible, brilliant joke. We're so close, you guys. SO close.

it's going to bomb twice and that is so beautiful

It is your moral and spiritual duty to ensure that morbius bombs again.

lmffao

all along, it was a ploy to make us use punctuation

sidenote I'm really glad other people on that first post also say they have an autistic accent because I've mentioned that this exists to neutrotypical people and they always look at me like I'm crazy but it's absolutely real and I feel extremely vindicated

grade school bullies are the only reliable test for autism

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

Some of y’all think that holding hands and sharing a bed is immediately romantic, and this is why people cannot differentiate between romantic, platonic, and familial forms of love.

Nothing is EVER inherently romantic. The meaning of a gesture is determined by the people involved in it, not some random outsider.
