Conservative politics are an incubator for the worst people to manipulate the dullest of minds.
Conspiracy theories give the D-student oxygen.
We were all told as kids, "don't use Wikipedia as a source." But for the love of god, please support wikipedia. It provides so much free knowledge to the public. It is a public resource. I've seen how fast y'all will fund AO3. Do the same for Wikipedia.
and guys my age stop by to tell me I remind them of their aunt, of their grandmother. This is a compliment and I take it as such. They confess to having tried crochet once, and I smile. They get back in line for the bathroom.
I'm knitting in the corner at a party and a queer woman sits on the floor next to me, arranges her skirt, and smiles up at me. (I try not to blush.) She asks me all the questions on her mind about my craft and I answer them, hands still moving. We swap yarn sources. She doesn't stay, but she knows where to find me.
I'm knitting in the corner at a party and everyone knows where to find me when they need a minute, when socializing is too much and the music is too loud and they need to catch their breath. They pretend to be checking in on me, which is sweet, but I can see the relief in their eyes the moment they stop performing for a house full of people. They sit down and tell me things and all the while they never take their eyes off my hands.
The party has wound down and I'm still knitting and the hosts, two guys in their twenties, thank me for "helping to curate the vibe." I had no idea that's what I was doing. I leave the party having forgotten to drink anything and without that woman's number but with many rows added to my top-down raglan sweater. I call it a night, and a good one.

Why does that look so cozy
Autism Speaks Canada is "concluding its operations" on January 31st 2025!
You ever think about how we call toddlers that because they can't walk right. They toddle about. Fuckin idiots. Fuckin idiot steppers can't walk properly. Call 'em wobblers. This is my son Jeffrey he's at the age where I mock him for walking like a fucking scrub. "Skill issue" ass name.
i was bored so i made this. disclaimer that i dont watch all hermits so some of these are based on vibes and could be entirely incorrect. ok enjoy
Now he only get three cars instead of five!
2 things. I know we all know this but it bears repeating so we dont accidentally repeat their framing: Gates was, intentionally or not, speaking in hyperbole. Warren’s wealth tax would definitely not take 100 billion off of him. Second of all, regarding that comment above mine about the 3 cars: I googled most expensive cars and one is the Lamborghini Veneno, which costs $4.5 million dollars. One billion dollars divided by 4.5 million? 222. Bill Gated could have a fucking fleet of two hundred of the most expensive Lamborghini cars in the world and he would STILL HAVE 6 BILLION DOLLARS.
I’m convinced if ppl on this site knew how crappy gifs look before you color them properly, they would appreciate editors more
for context reasons, this is how a gif I used in a recent gifset looks like without any adjustments/coloring whatsoever:
and here it is afterwards:
I truly don’t think people realize how dingy and dark most movies and tv shows actually are so they can’t appreciate the work and skill it takes to make gifs look the way your brain “remembers” it looking.
Another before and after example:
This gif needed 6 different adjustment layers, not including the sharpening process, which is its own separate challenge. The blue window was also changed to green to keep the palette more consistent and to reduce the range of colors needed, because a wider range of colors generally results in worse gif quality since gifs only support a max of 256 (compared to the millions your monitor can display).
yeah…
I was already going to reblog this because gifmakers need all the love, but the little lambie made sure that I was definitely going to do it.
dark scenes are truly the bane of every gifmaker’s soul
The ecosystem of tumblr fandom relies on gif makers - put some respect on their names!!
my partner is only 40 but nestled within him is the soul of an elderly man
that’s enough emotions for a whole year. ciao
The earlier in the year you reblog this the better it gets
I wish I’d seen this post sooner.
ugh yeah
'was the grink there?' energy
People these days just posting inside jokes inside the whole damn internet
this is gonna enter my vocabulary for sure
They knew exactly what they were doing when they gave a lesbian character rolled up sleeves, fingerless sniper gloves, and a very specialized technical competence.
Me when the workout ROUTINE doesn't work in one day
