stop what you’re doing right now and watch a 33 year old bat get help with flying
Yeah, I’m going to always reblog Statler.
This might be the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen
It’s like flying a kite that runs on fruit.
sorry can't talk rn i'm slow blinking with my cat
So poor people don’t deserve to have money?!
THEY’LL JUST WASTE IT ON SURVIVAL!
Also, if you’ve taken more than a high school economics course taught by someone who has never stepped foot in a college economics class,
Giving $500 to poor people multiplies it REALLY FAST. That $500 immediately goes into the economy and ripples more purchases until it hits a rich pocket.
Giving $500 to a billionaire takes $500 out of the economy permenantly. You could have set it on fire and made no difference.
That is such an important part of the conversation that rich people seem to purposefully misunderstand whenever it’s brought up
Money exists to be spent, not hoarded. Yes, people should have saving, but no one should be sitting on a pile of money too big to spend in a single lifetime. “The economy” as a concept only works if people are spending money, and the people hoarding the money are so quick to blame the people who barely have any when the economy starts to fail
Having a big string of numbers in an offshore account doesnt make you an economic genius, it makes you a parasite that is ruining the economy for everyone else
discovering the queer country scene has honestly been so healing because most queer musicians i've seen recommended for years i just couldn't really connect with because it wasn't the sort of music i listened to or had investment in and with queer country it's like. yes. this is the language i speak in. this is Fuck You, I Belong Here Too, not just as a queer person in the country but as a rural person among (sub)urban queers, and saying it with a laugh. when will my hometown take pride in me, goddamn it
Drop the list!!
FIRST: rachel holst does the adobe & teardrops blog as well as the rainbow rodeo newsletter & zine. look into the black opry also, there are plenty of black queer country/folk/americana artists & there is a lot of collaboration between them and other queer country/folk/americana musicians
my personal list:
- adeem the artist (especially the new album, white trash revelry)
- paisley fields (stay away from my man is a good old fashioned honky tonk jam about gay on gay violence)
- jake blount (the new faith is an afrofuturist album using roots music to explore life after climate collapse, HIGHLY recommend)
- sarah shook & the disarmers (especially the album sidelong, ESPECIALLY the songs fuck up & dwight yoakam)
- lavender country (everything but especially cryin' these cocksucking tears. patrick haggerty sadly passed in 2022 and we lost a real one. he self-described as a screaming marxist bitch)
- flamy grant (okay so. bible belt baby is Technically a christian album that i was tricked into listening to. but listen. what did you drag me into is an instant classic)
- mercy bell (especially who said we were friends. i can't hear the lyric "mea culpa/here's a gulpa/my drink in your face" and NOT recommend it)
- amythyst kiah (if you haven't heard black myself by now what even are you doing. go listen to it)
- do you want to speedrun a depressive episode as a queer woman who fears you may have too much in common with your father? listen to i drink by mary gauthier now
- karen & the sorrows (there is a lot to recommend karen pittelman and the work she has done for queer country artists but i'm a useless lesbian so i'm submitting for consideration a photo of the red dress from the mv for guaranteed broken heart that i think about a normal amount:
There ain't no possible way that I'd remember to listen to any of these artists on my own so I made a handy-dandy playlist on Spotify with an on-the-nose title for all the other cowpokes who need to save/bookmark something and come back to it later.
It's basically the most recent album of all the artists listed above. It's about 7 hours long so have at it, y'all

Sneha Solanki ‘The Lovers’
Two networked machines, one infected with a virus, slowly infects the other through the interface of classic romantic poetry.
A breakdown in the relationship was inevitable once the virus had seeped into the memory of one machine and then into the other through a singular network cable affecting the poetic text files. Communication between the two deteriorated, leading to irrational & at times odd behaviour. Each machine reacted with equal confusion and conflict. The interface text became an illegible poetic mutation of itself.

If tumblr doesn't fix the changes, we should get #hellsite (derogatory) trending
No one cares about the frogs
No one wanted a y2k themed dashboard
Only three people use tumblr live
Stop flagging LGBT content as nsfw
Change the notes back to what they looked before (and stop shortening the number)
Let us click on previous URLs to see a post and not the blog
Stop trying to implement an algorithm
The number one thing we really want is less porn bots. I'm tired of one of the first things I see in the morning being porn.

LUPITA NYONG'O 76th Tony Awards June 11, 2023
Is it just me or does having a positive interaction with a stranger scratch a very particular itch? I think it's the reassurance that the world is not split solely into people who already love you and people who never will.
Jason: What’s with the cast around Bruce’s arm?
Dick: He broke his arm.
Jason: Well duh. How?
Dick: He ran into a solid object.
Jason: That’s hilarious! What, did he run headfirst into a wall?
Dick: Close enough. He ran into Superman.
Jason: *chokes on his own laughter*
Dick: Don’t laugh, Bruce’s embarrassed enough. Clark’s upstairs with him now and he can’t stop apologizing for it.
