Ramblings and close-ups under the cut below!

My current living situation is the most powerful I’ve ever felt

people who want to live in lighthouse - i hear you, i understand you

but i raise you

living in water tower

safer (you not gonna die horrid death so easy), not so cursed but still ominous, you are alone bc you are in a tower but you can do groceries no problem, just chilling above everything else

and look at those beauties!! (from Poland <3)

as an american i was very confused by this post until i got to the images because our water towers look like this, which, as you can imagine, is a completey unsexy place to live

Too bad the prophet Cassandra never met Odysseus

They say if she made a prophecy Nobody would believe her

I’ve gotta say, that is exactly the kind of stupid thing that probably would circumvent a curse.

Cassandra: YOU ARE ALL GOING TO REGRET THIS SO MUCH YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW. 

Odysseus: Regret it why?

Cassandra: You won’t believe me if I tell you. If I prophecy, nobody believes me. That is my curse.

Odysseus: … I’m Nobody. Fill me in. 

*A couple of months later* 

Odysseus: HELLO PENELOPE, I AM HERE PRECISELY ON TIME AND NOT YEARS LATE incidentally I rescued and adopted a Trojan seer while I was away, she’s great, got me home really fast, Cassandra this is your new mother who’s not going to treat you like shit. 

Penelope: … I’m going to need more details, but okay, sure. 

Cassandra: *in tears* I love you, new family. 

Cassandra: Penelope, I’ve had another vision.

Penelope, sighs: Go tell your father.

Sure, other platforms may call them “followers” too, but only Tumblr can capture the feel of a faceless crowd of huddled masses trailing after you about a city block’s distance away, picking up pages of your diary or scrawlings that you drop on the ground as you walk along. Some of these people have been there for years. Some only joined the crowd last week. Collectively, the crowd is ancient and ageless. Who are they? What do they want from you? Nobody knows. Walk a little faster.

that was one of the shortest hospital stays of my life, but the highlight of the whole event is that i got the paramedics to read homestuck and listen to lemon demon.

ngl, i'm lucky i got a pic cause otherwise even i would think i'm lying.

John.

what's up?

this reads like a post i would see in 2014. i feel transported

1/30/22

ok but op how did this come about. were you so boring to treat that they asked for webcomic recommendations. did you promise to calm down if they recited your holy texts. what

i was stabbed a little and i thought if he read homestuck to me i'd fade out quicker. i'm kinda ugly so he agreed.

OP ARE YOU OK???? WHAT IS "A LITTLE"???

You see, this is the type of interaction that literally could not happen on any other website.

just learned that humans might have evolved smaller pupils and irises/more whites of our eyes so that it's easier for other humans to tell where we're looking as a way of communicating sudden threats. and now i'm thinking of every time i have been frantically giving my friend a Look to get out of an uncomfortable situation (or been on the receiving end). still using it to communicate sudden threats only this time his name is kyle

THERE CAN BE OOOOOONLY OOONE!

I miss playing TF2 🙃

16 DAYY and i actually HAVE something 🥳🥳🥳

i missed this artstyle literally art block's gotta let me go😭

Honestly though, the scene in Incredibles where Dash gets called into the office for putting a tack on his teacher's chair gets 100x funnier when you consider that the teacher almost certainly knows what's going on with Dash.

I mean, he probably doesn't know that he has super speed specifically— "I don't know how he does it!"— but this guy is fully aware of the existence of supers.

This isn't a Harry Potter situation where the muggles don't even know that magic exists— supers were lauded public figures and a key part of the criminal justice system until just fifteen years ago. This dude was definitely an adult and probably already teaching at the time. He may have been expected to include lessons on supers and their role in society in the curriculum.

And while we don't know exactly how supers get their powers, Edna mentions in Incredibles 2 that "it's not unknown for supers to have more than one power when young", so Dash, Violet and Jack-Jack evidently weren't the first people to develop them as children.

This guy lives in a setting in which he knows— with 100% certainty— that there are people out there who are born with special powers that enable them to do impossible things. And, from observing Dash, he knows that what this kid seems to be doing shouldn't be possible for a normal kid.

He absolutely knows this boy has powers. It's the most logical explanation, and it makes perfect sense within the laws of the universe he lives in. He may think that the kid is teleporting the tacks onto his chair, or turning invisible, or shifting reality or whatever, but he knows that some sort of super power is at work here.

The problem is… he can't openly acknowledge it.

Now the supers are in hiding, normal civilians aren't allowed to know of their existence. Even if there is no formal law against it (and there might be a formal law against it), everyone who figures out that their coworker or friend or whatever is a super, and doesn't keep quiet about it, gets black-bagged by a government agency and has their memory erased. There's no way people aren't at least vaguely aware that it's best not to talk about who you think might be a super, because bad things happen to people who do.

When the Principal ushers Helen and Dash out of the room and starts trying to calm the teacher down, he's not doing it because he thinks he's crazy. He's doing it because he's just seen video evidence that this kid is a super, and is trying to keep his friend from being taken away for Re-Education.

Dash is fully exploiting the fact that people like him legally don't exist to pull pranks on his teacher, knowing that the guy can't actually call him out without getting his mind wiped.

I just have the sudden need to tell you that the Czech version of “in the middle of nowhere” is “kde lišky dávají dobrou noc”, which literally means “where foxes say goodnight”

how cute, the Serbian version of “in the middle of nowhere” is “vukojebina”, which literally means “where wolves fuck” :)

Still better than polish equivalent „gdzie psy dupami szczekają” which means „where dogs are barking with their asses” :)

Ya’ll good over there?

no, we ain’t

honorable mention:

“gdzie diabeł mówi dobranoc” - “where the devil says goodnight”

“zadupie” - “behind ass”

okay but this is a power move above any other

It gets even better, because he was doing all of this on a pitch black night. This dude swam towards a lure, slapped at it with his glove, and when it got caught; he let himself float and tugged on the line so the fisherman thought he had hooked a 100+ pound salmon. Once he was finally up to the shore, he turned a flashlight on in the guy’s face and walked out of the water, saying “good morning, gentlemen. State fish and game warden, you’re under arrest.“

At this point, the guy who had reeled him in had literally fallen over in shock, and the other people with him were scared shitless. The warden whipped some citations out of a plastic bag in his wetsuit, made the trespassers sign them, asked if they had any questions, and then gathered all of their fishing gear. And he just. Walked back into the river. And quietly swam away, without another word.

This man is a legend.

This belovéd weirdo

Unironically, this is why society would crumble without diversity
