[ID: a screenshot of a tweet by user ForrestValkai that reads: "It's crazy how people get justifiably angry when scalpers buy a bunch of tickets to sell them at unreasonable prices, but when landlords do the exact same thing with houses we all just act like that's normal and smart business and homeless people should just work harder."

sorry but in my opinion this is so rude
The notes on this post are just filled to the brim with the society-killing US chest-thumping of ‘HOW DARE YOU ASK SOMETHING OF ME IN MY OWN HOUSE???????‘ and just like... you guys do understand this is why you had Trump, right? Because all of you feel this way about each other?
Like, you are all aware that this is exactly exactly exactly how right wing people feel about being asked to use pronouns? “You want me to change MY behavior just to benefit YOU? FUCK YOU. I WOULD RATHER CALL YOU THE WRONG NAME FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE THAN BEND TO YOUR WILL.“ But hey. Lawnmower go brrrr, right? Based? The person asking for courtesy was the one being rude?
On reddit, I would expect this, but I’m surprised to see it on tumblr because like... this is the queer website? We care about each other here? Sometimes I feel like some of you are only right by coincidence and not by conviction or principle.
Maybe it’s because I’m from a third-world country, but in my eyes lawnmower man is such a gigantic cunt I cannot even believe my eyes reading this story. Part of being in a community, even a tiny, ad hoc one like a neighborhood is recognising that there are parts of our spaces that overlap, and we give and take from those spaces in equal measure. In my neighborhood, that means my neighbors are allowed to stay up until 3 AM partying if they want. You won’t hear a peep from me unless you’re doing it every night. I party too, and we both understand each other. It means my neighbor’s kids can play the drums and ride their very loud motorcycle outside. I have my own loud hobbies, and we all respect each other. And if you leave a note on my door asking me to be quiet while you have your WEDDING? Of course man, no problem! I hope it’s a sunny day and the ceremony is beautiful! I know that if I ever need anything, you will help me out as well. I mean come on, people. Are you seriously searing over one afternoon of your life? That is such a reasonable request. You were probably being quiet anyway! Stop trying to be the main character and build connections with the people around you. Being nice costs nothing and will only bring you gains. How else do you expect people to be respectful and kind to you, if not in return?
“Stop trying to be the main character and build connections with the people around you.”
Yeah my name is Tim, short for OpTIMus Prime
[id: tags saying "wait wait i wanna know where they plan on using their full name, why'd you cut it off"]
answer: THEIR WEDDING.
I can't describe to you the emotion I would feel if I was hanging out with my friend Tim and he was like "hey we've been friends for a while now I want to show you something," and he hands me his driver's license, upon which I read "Optimus Prime Jones"
thinking that mr. brightside, a usamerican song by a usamerican band which is one of the most popular songs of the last 30 years, is something that is only popular among brits is funny enough on its own but to say sweet caroline, a song by usamerican icon neil diamond about *caroline kennedy* which is a mainstay of boston sports specifically and usamerican events across the country generally, is also a song only brits know is just hysterical you’ll have to drag me off the internet by my fucking toenails i love it here
Do they even like Led Zepplin over in the UK? I always thought of them as the band that made baseball walk-up songs
“there are no videos of anyone singing sweet caroline at a sports function”
Just learned that the NYPD apparently edited their own fucking Wikipedia page to make themselves look better 😀
ACAB 🐷🖕🥰
Bruh moment
If you look at the edit history, this is an ongoing fight, and the NYPD is anonymous 90% of the time:
For people new to the Wikipedia edit scene (like me), the red numbers are how many characters were removed, and the green are how many added.
The devil works hard, but Wikipedians work harder.
Every few months twitterinas bring back the “carnivores are a problematic element of nature and we should feed them synthetic meat and make it so they don’t eat herbivores. this is completely normal, feasible and won’t have any kind of repercussion on the ecosystem” discourse
First time I saw that was a guy who had as proposition to create fake prey animals with a robotic exoskeleton and covered in synthetic meat that predators would hunt, eat and then the exoskeleton would get up and go to the lab to get re meated. That was funny as hell
Tiger watching skinless carcass it just ate get up and walk away
like I don’t give a shit what people think about things I like that they don’t like. but it’s absolutely exhausting to scroll past multiple paragraphs of ranting. like damn bro do you even have a life? you’re giving ME anxiety
“mcu has no rewatch value” dude I watched the winter soldier in theaters twice, watched it again a couple years later, and just watched it again the other weekend. I saw civil war in theaters twice, watched it again a couple years later, and just watched it again last weekend. I’d watch it again.
I genuinely think a significant portion of people who aren’t diehard fans of the series literally just missed a movie or two, got lost, and then got angry, then joined the “it sucks and everyone who likes it should be executed” crowd because mob psychology.
literally the same as the people who don’t like reading any subtitles so they complained that pan’s labyrinth is hot garbage because it didn’t make any sense, or the people who don’t like paying attention to dialogue that requires you to think complaining that inception is hot garbage because it didn’t make any sense, or the people who don’t like 2D animation so they think princess mononoke is shit.
motherfucker, there are 87 slasher movies out this year with the exact same premise as every single other slasher movie since john carpenter watched hitchcock. fast and furious has had 3 movies in as many years. aster and shyamalan have been shoveling out formulaic garbage on a consistent basis for the pst decade. the conjuring has its own cinematic universe. and people are deciding to attack the one franchise in cinema history that actually had genuine love poured into its development. of course I’m talking about everything up until endgame and the spiderman trilogy, everything after that is phase four and on and it’s just disney milking it for more money and I genuinely do agree with you for those ones. but don’t come after the literal only good popular movies in the entire 2010s. literally look at 2010 and then look at 2011 and you tell me that isn’t the year that movies died.
I legit served a man at my last job who was fully covered in nazi symbols and shit. He was a proud actual real life nazi getting icecream in a family theme park and when he left I voiced my disgust to my coworkers on how security even let him in the gate wearing all of that. And you know what that bitch said? “Well some people are offended by your rainbow flag and you are allowed to wear it so he can too”. It’s not the fucking same. Don’t fucking compare the two
Nazis’ entire mission is to exterminate anyone who’s not exactly like them. It’s in no way comparable to “some people are offended”.
me: “I’d like to visibly exist without fear”
them: “I want to literally kill these people so that they stop existing”
centrists: “I don’t see the difference”
oh my god are the fucking redditors coming HERE now too???
didn’t realize tumblr was the fucking mount sinai of the internet
In 1993, the New York Times published an article criticising Federico Fellini and some other foreign language films for being "hard work". MARTIN SCORSESE sent this incredible letter in response.
the x files is funny because at the time it was “progressive” or whatever to have the ultra-rational, levelheaded character be a woman
but it’s also a show where all the fucked up alien shit actually is real, so she’s just constantly wrong about everything
What’s funny is how often they’re both wrong. Mulder will be like “the victims all had their livers scooped clean out this is obviously the aliens escalating from cattle mutilation” and Scully will be like “don’t be silly Mulder this is clearly just a serial killer who’s really good with surgical tools” and then it turns out the actual killer is an immortal sewer man who comes out ever quarterly century to feast on human liver.
I cannot stress enough that this is literally the plot of an actual episode
“here’s what’s gonna happen. you’re gonna be someone else for a while. you’re gonna do whatever it takes to not let anyone know who that someone else really is, because they might work for 𝘩𝘪𝘮. as far as the world outside this room is concerned, Princess Zelda also died today”
Wait, which series does Miles Morales first appear in? All these different series are so confusing
Ultimate Spider-Man, in the universe of the Ultimate imprint. It was the best of the Ultimate series.

Cool 👍

man, what the fuck
This is the most accurate post about getting into comic books I have ever seen.
I think you answered your own question.
Goodbye, Earl.
RB if you think CD drives in computers are not obsolete, but in fact still necessary, despite being artificially phased out
