♐ INFP. Obsessed with Undertale, D&D, Overwatch, One Piece, and about 50 other things. I mostly just reblog stuff I like, but I occasionally try to post stuff.

I saw a post saying that Boromir looked too scruffy in FotR for a Captain of Gondor, and I tried to move on, but I’m hyperfixating. Has anyone ever solo backpacked? I have. By the end, not only did I look like shit, but by day two I was talking to myself. On another occasion I did fourteen days’ backcountry as the lone woman in a group of twelve men, no showers, no deodorant, and brother, by the end of that we were all EXTREMELY feral. You think we looked like heirs to the throne of anywhere? We were thirteen wolverines in ripstop.

My boy Boromir? Spent FOUR MONTHS in the wilderness! Alone! No roads! High floods! His horse died! I’m amazed he showed up to Imladris wearing clothes, let alone with a decent haircut. I’m fully convinced that he left Gondor looking like Richard Sharpe being presented to the Prince Regent in 1813

And then rocked up to Imladris a hundred ten days later like

Some people have been wondering about the raccoon. Listen. Listennn. Don't ask about the raccoon.

But does the racoon survive the Uruk-Hai? Does he curl up on Aragorn's head, or does he go straight to Faramir? Does he bite Denethor?

My friend. My colleague. My brother my captain my king. I too have been pondering this question, and in my mind there can be only one ultimate outcome.

A few months later

All hail the High Warden of Gondor.

Epilogue: It ADORES Faramir.

I’m going to wear this on my head like a raccoon and show everyone

Aliens are the least of our worries right now but listen to me. Aliens don’t want to hurt us but the government is gonna convince us they do and incite worldwide panic and start a real space war to avoid advancing technology for the general population because efficient non oil based energy that the aliens have will crush the capitalist industries that need it to thrive welcome to my ted talk

this post so confidently and sincerely made it’s point that i had to stop myself checking the news to find out if first contact had happened this morning

Hypnotist that asks you a question 🤝 Hypnotist that answers for you.

And you like that too don't you? Of course you do. Say 'yes I like that too". You're so good.

that answers for you.

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

So I posted these two images that I made in a post together just shy of a year ago, and the post got 10,000+ notes. Today I saw a meme with a text convo of someone sending one of them to a military recruiter (which is extremely funny) and I thought “oh I should find that post again”

but when I went to find it, it had completely vanished. not just the original post, but even reblogs of it. I couldn’t even find screenshots anyone had taken of the original post. it wasn’t brought to my attention as a reported post, tumblr never even contacted me about deleting it, it just… disappeared

really gets the noggin joggin

so that’s the line huh tumblr. that old post just went too far and you had to poof it.

Reblog to remember the post before it gets deleted again

Monsters.

I’m waiting for an arborist to hop on here and confirm that this is bad for those kind of trees or some shit, too.

People keep on saying "tree law" in the notes but you don't get it. Universal studios doesn't chew fucking gum without a lawyer's input. They knew they could face a huge fine and the fine would be like buying a bean burrito in human money.

That’s true. They would actually pay alllll kinds of money to fight paying workers what they’re worth.

this shouldnt be the funniest thing in the world to me but here we are

So, I hate to be That Guy, but this is legit terrifying.

I can’t claim any particular expertise in loony tunes fascist beliefs, but I follow a number of people who are experts. To grossly oversimplify, “mutant” is fasc-speak shorthand for non-humans who pass as humans. This is the part of the RW ecosystem that literally believes there are humanoid reptiles who wear human costumes to pass among the general population.

Like so much fascist belief, when you write it out that way, it just looks silly. The mythos is deliberately constructed to make it as hard as possible for “normies” to take it seriously. (See Sartre’s quote about debating fascists.)

The point is not belief or non-belief in reptile people. The point is that the leader of a fascist movement is telling his followers that they’re correct, there are non-humans trying to subjugate us by prosecuting me. What immediately follows is that it’s okay to kill them. They are, after all, not human. This group of mutants includes trans people, queers, Jews, Muslims, and Democrats.

He’s calling for violence. He’s just doing it in a way that everyone who isn’t on board already can’t hear.

Put another way, he’s playing with matches in a fireworks factory, and there are a lot of people who should know better who are helping him do it.

Other explanations I’ve seen:

Really wish the journalists reporting this bothered to do the actual research to understand what he’s saying instead of shrugging it off as “crazy talk”.
