The Jedi shouldn’t be able to take away our right to electrocute random people.
i think it shld be more widespread for ppl to read aloud to each other as a means of spending time together. like even just a bunch of adults sitting together reading wikipedia articles or something
There's a tumblr post floating around somewhere that says "We think that if we get better at writing, it will someday stop sounding like we wrote it" or something along those lines.
Does anyone happen to have a link handy? I want to reference it in an advice post.
Was it this one? 🤗
Yes, thank you so much!!!!!
[ID: a tweet by elicia donze that reads "People hate their own art because it looks like they made it. They think if they get better, it will stop looking like they made it. A better person made it. But there's no level of skill beyond which you stop being you. You hate the most valuable thing about your art. /end ID]
white Americans dying on the hill of defending the politics of Oppenheimer as a film is so embarrassing to me
They’re all being like “making a movie about something doesn’t glorify it” and no it doesn’t do so inherently but a Christopher Nolan Hollywood biopic starring cillian Murphy fucking the blonde bombshell of the hour on screen kind of does lol
And like yea criticism that it doesn’t include a Japanese perspective might not be the right angle to bring critique but obviously the center of that critique isn’t “they should’ve done random cuts to Japan” it’s “a Hollywood movie starring twenty modern beloved sex symbols which goes to great length to dwell on and explore the hurt feelings, loves, and dreams of the people responsible for one of the United states’ greatest atrocities is in poor taste”
as my own direct immediate list of game grievances i hate that stardew valley expects you to side against a wheelchair user who is upset that he was moved without his consent. i hate that the mass effect trilogy gives you visible scarring as a direct result of choosing mean dialogue and heals it if you're nice. i hate that the vampire the masquerade ttrpg has a monstrous player class that can appear as horrible vampiric monsters or as visibly disabled people and both of these appearances are mechanically the same. i hate that dark souls games have a difficulty level implemented in a way that cannot be adjusted for disability. i hate that i can play as a mermaid or a werewolf or a horse in the sims games but can't use a wheelchair. i hate that the ace attorney games have so much flashing and not all of the games can disable it. i hate that disability is constantly something that happens to teach a lesson, i hate that disability is something that happens as a punishment, i hate that disability is either compensated perfectly with no drawbacks or something that is endlessly sought to be cured. i hate that no character customization will ever include the mobility aids i use, that the player avatars that represent me will never look like me. i am so goddamn annoyed and so goddamn tired.
be pro-aging but wear sun screen. sun protection is not beauty industry propaganda it will save you. wear it. or else.

also according to michael collins when the three of them were discussing what neil armstrong should say when he first stepped on the moon, collins suggested armstrong say “Oh, my God, what is that thing?” and then scream and cut out his mic.
Everyone forgets Michael Collins and it’s fucking tragic.
we all must get weirder and more queer. i am completely serious and genuine and this is urgent. please get weirder and gayer now. if you see me acting weird and gay mind your business a little bit.
It's always interesting how trans people see their transition. Some people are like "I was a boy now I'm a girl" and some are like "I was always a girl" and every once in a while you get a fun one like "I used to be a boy but the girl won"

So turns out…..you guys are not gonna believe this…….but it turns out. Reading real books. Is good for you actually.
Let me be completely clear - I’m not being a sarcastic ass. I’m just realizing all over again, in real time, for myself, that reading a real life published book makes your neurons feel like they’re getting a spa day. Like I can feel my brain getting juicer and wrinklier with every page I turn. This shit is no joke, this is like hard drugs if hard drugs were good for you and made your brain feel revived and alive.
@7redmoon nothing against some good fanfic, I’m a fic author myself, but there’s something very necessary and mentally nourishing about reading a published book that isn’t just a recycled version of the same cast of characters you’re already familiar with.
@911boofer I hope it’s okay I snagged these tags bc YES!!!!! This is what I’m talking about!!! Diversify your palettes, my friends, it’s so so good for you!!
Across the Spiderverse went OUT of their way to say “the mcu SUCKS and they’re STUPID and they’re NOT EARTH 616 WHY WOULD THEY CALL THEMSELVES THAT but ur pretty cool donald glover hiiiiii donald glover hope ur doing well”
as someone who just went to their first real pride event yesterday, it's actually kina of amazing how 'kink at pride" discourse online doesn't actually align at all irl. like they were dudes in pup masks and vendors selling sex toys, and also there were parents with their kids wearing rainbow flower crowns. and nobody exploded. who knew.
One of my favorite genres of post
i gotta show yall a our discord classic
yall we gotta stop apologizing for making slightly horny remarks we aren't catholic
just constantly trying to convince tumblr of this
Favorite thing about renaissance faires is that they have fuck all to to with the renaissance. This thang is not about historical anything this is about dressing up like a fairy and watching a joust
i have a brain problem that prevents me from understanding people who need so much specifically newly-released TV shows that they're upset by the prospect of going a few months without new ones being produced
like they could stop making video games and books today and I wouldn't notice until sometime in 2026. honestly if they'd stop making new video games for a while that'd be kinda convenient. everyone take a break and let me catch up. I still haven't even played Persona 5.
find me in 2029 going "you guys heard about this red plumber dude? little bastard just loves to jump lol. anyway it sounds weird, I know, but I'm kinda getting into it"
Audio processing disorder is just like "you are going to be able to differentiate 27 distinct sounds happening simultaneously EXCEPT for when someone's talking to you. Good luck"
People think because my ears are so unreasonably sensitive I must also be able to "hear" them. This is false. I can hear the clock ticking though
