Sometimes I wonder why my country is so cursed but then I remember that we unironically call God "sky daddy" and our most famous monument is a huge statue of Jesus T-posing

i understand we are all excited bc of the new season announcement but why am i seeing fans recommend black butler to people on purpose that’s so mean. black butler is something that happens to you much like a car accident or natural disaster

Can my fellow white people, and can thin white women especially, stop reacting to the Lizzo news with comments like “never liked her that much, always thought she was Sus” like we all know that you don’t feel that way because you have special Sexual Harasser/Fatphobe detection software installed in your brain, be honest with yourselves about why you “never liked her”…. and also maybe gather up like, a crumb of sympathy for how black women and fat women and especially fat black women feel right now?

And I mean, maybe you just don’t like her music. Can’t relate but whatever, still, just admit that, I’m so tired of this same stupid routine every time a famous person this site loves turns out to be an asshole or a creep. You didn’t know that about them, that’s not why you didn’t like their work, and it certainly doesn’t make you “superior” to someone who liked their work who also didn’t know. Taste is subjective, the fact that it lined up this time with not supporting someone awful is just a happy accident for you.

We've all gotten just a bit too comfortable being jerks to strangers on the internet I think

So I've hidden this reply, both because it's obnoxious and because I don't want the person who wrote it being harassed for it, but I need you to understand: I don't know you. We are not friends. This is not fun or cute, we are not sharing a charming joke together. You are just being an asshole.

literally that is what the post is about, I am saying people should be less eager to jump on any chance to be snarky and rude to total strangers on the internet

Lying to children is fun when they know you are being ridiculous. When you hold up a carrot like “guys look at this huge Cheeto” and they all scream “NOOOOOOOOO that’s a CARE-OTT!”

“What? No, it’s my giant Cheeto.”

“NOOOOOOO!”

When I was a camp counselor a fellow counselor claimed that any silly camp song we sang was “his next hit single” and we should all follow him on SoundCloud and he stuck by this daily and it never ceased to amuse both the adults and the children.

When children are small and learning to count and you say the numbers out of order? Peak comedy.

“How many toys are there? Let’s see… oneeee, twooo, six!”

“NO! One two three!”

“What? Are you sure? Let me try again. One, two… six?”

“Noooooo!”

Once reduced a toddler into a fit of giggles by singing “A B C D E F Q.”

on Halloween at the store i work at there was a little boy in a Batman costume, and as I was helping his mom I kept addressing him as Mr. Superman and Mr. Aquaman & he kept correcting me, “noooo, BATMAN” until they were leaving and he very seriously told me, “actully, I’m Ryan”

my favourite thing to do when a small child hands me a random object with no clear intent is to answer it like a cell phone. Gets em every time
