taiga's witchering - witcher stuff (books, games, netflix. not very netflix-friendly tho bc it sucks.)

rainy’s fandom soup - anything not marvel, musicals or the witcher. a lot of rdr in there

rainy watches marvel - all things marvel

rainy watches musicals - mostly starkid, a bit of tin can bros and chicago

unnecessary rambling hours - non-fandom stuff

unnecessary meme hours - my more or less excellent memes

RDR sideblog @rainysrdrsideblog (open to new name suggestions. would reddeaddickhead be okay?)

I'm 18+, would be lovely if you were 18+ too.

Look, if you're starving in a post-apocalyptic wasteland and suddenly someone is like 'oh I have tons of food and it just happens to be meat do you want some lol' you CANNOT act surprised when it's people. You simply CANNOT.

There are times and places where it is realistic to expect NOT to be served people. For example, in a pie shop underneath a barber shop. THEN you can be all 'OH GOD IT'S PEOPLE.'

If you are in a post-apocalyptic wasteland and are suddenly served a really good meat pie, you have to know it's people. Do you see any cows? No, they all apocalypsed. It's your neighbor.

If you're served food in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, ask yourself these questions first:

  1. Do I trust the person feeding me?
  2. Is this meat fresh, and if so, have there been any livestock non-apocalypsed recently?
  3. Have I seen Kevin within the past week?
  4. Am I willing to commit the penultimate culinary taboo? (The ultimate culinary taboo is putting pineapple on pizza, a crime I regularly commit)

5. how much did i even like kevin, really

people who market tumblr as a “fandom website” are missing the fact that the fandom tags are essentially unusable because you cannot venture into them without seeing a take so bad you want to throw up

hey real talk, tumblr's recent update to web makes it impossible to navigate up a reblog chain, and I'm mad about it

like seriously, the "prev tags" thing? yeah, it's now impossible to see anybody's previous tags, because clicking on the previous reblogger's url does nothing, and the only way to get to a post is to click on its header.

that means that checking who somebody reblogged from? broken. following a reblog chain to find the earliest version of a post, because OP or one of the other posters deactivated? broken. can't do it. it's now impossible.

basically, this fucking sucks for a lot of reasons, and if it bothers you as much as it bothers me, please send in a feedback ticket to tumblr!

I've already sent one in - well, I sent a bug report, thinking it was a bug, but they confirmed in their most recent changes post that it's actually on purpose! which I cannot understand, because it really is just busted now.

I just feel lost without the ability to go back and see who reblogged what and what tags they added! that was a pretty necessary function of this website, and it sucks that they took it away! :/

Welcome to the future, where you don’t own anything and the stuff you rent stops working once your phone has no signal.

App powered car? 🤦‍♀️

I wish people remembered the age old wisdom that if something doesn’t absolutely require an Internet connection to function, it shouldn’t be connected to the internet - same goes for apps.

WHY IS A CATFOOD DISPENSER CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET

Sometimes I’m glad that I’m too poor for my “cool future stuff” monkey brain to be set loose to buy stupid shit like this.

please please please do not buy into the Internet of Things. Digital displays for appliances are one thing, but you shouldn’t need the fucking internet to do your laundry or use the fridge.

I need you guys to see my favorite Finnish meme (?). This old poster type thing gets circulated in Finnish meme sites all the time and I love it so much.

ENGLISH:

Two paths: What will a boy become?
13 years old: Bad literature vs. Scouting and military games
18 years old: Civilian service and effeminacy vs. Reserve Officers training corps
22 years old: Perversion and sodomy vs. A successful career
30 years old: Opium, syphilis, crime, penitentiary vs. CEO, statesman, influence

The guy on the left is literally my goal.

Also if this is real and not just made to be funny, this is at least around 50 years old conaidering the fact that it mentions Finnish penitentiaries which were shut down in 1975.

The other night I had a really weird dream where Sebastian just completely broke character and started ranting about what a pain it was to pretend to be human and how nobody understood the effort he put into his human personas, while Ciel was sitting dumbfounded in the corner of the train compartment trying to do his taxes
