some of you have never been bullied and it shows

this isn’t a call to bully anyone btw like if youve never been bullied good for you! i hope you’ll never experience it bc it is truly awful and i wouldnt wish that on anyone. the point is though like…… so many of u ppl just casually talk about bullying as if it’s something minor that happens instead of sth that literally traumatizes u and leaves u with lasting hang-ups later on in life.

like, even if you weren’t fully aware of being bullied (im autistic, i didn’t pick up on it until way later and realized that like. all my “normal” experiences were actually rly fucked up lol) it still makes you wary of interacting with others and still makes you flinch when people approach etc

“bring back bullying” it never fucking left you dipshits just want an excuse to be cruel to people you deem Other

art tips that actually help. tracing pictures is fine. try not to shade with black. draw as much as you can all the time and make it shitty im so serious. dont buy expensive materials its not worth it. never post your art to tiktok. raise your commission prices. sparkle on be yourself

everyone on tumblr please learn reading comprehension skills xoxo

Yes, I love fun Tumblr memes such as:

  • carcinization
  • Diogenes and Plato
  • copper fraud in ancient Babylon
  • The Cask of Amontillado
  • unionizing
  • color vision of shrimp
  • the trolley problem
  • Kellogg, founder of Kellogg’s
  • Maslow’s hierarchy of needs
  • the Ides of March

It gets annoying when a post blows up and different people make the same joke on it dozens of times. Not when somebody on this one doesn’t know what the Cask of Amontillado memes are and people offer to show them though. That’s still funny.

ok i tried going through the notes but couldn’t dig anything up so i’ll bite, what’s the cask of amontillado about?

Follow me into my wine cellar I’ll show you

wild to think about the fact that, right now, as you read this, there’s a fandom server on discord having drama the likes of which we could not even fathom

in sixth grade my homeroom teacher caught this kid stephen saying, “that’s so gay.”

so he told the class that for the rest of the week, anytime you wanted to express something negatively, you could say, “that’s so stephen.”

and it started out as a joke, where even this stephen kid was going around using it, laughing at it, not really caring. it was funny, i guess.

but then one of his friends got a bad mark on a test and said, “that’s so stephen.”

we had a blacktop recess and everyone kept saying, “that’s so stephen.”

and when we got too loud doing groupwork and had to separate and work silently, everyone in the class kept muttering, “that’s so stephen.”

and the weirdest part was that even though it was just a word we were using, even though it had nothing to do with stephen, we all sort of blamed stephen.

and as everyone kept using “that’s so stephen,” all week, you could see stephen himself finding it less and less funny. we played a game called “pamplemousse” in french class and everyone got stephen out right away if they could. someone literally went and found one of stephen’s art projects when nobody else was around and ruined it so he had to start over.

and when my homeroom teacher found out about it, he sat everyone down and told us that it wasn’t okay to say “that’s so stephen” anymore. that the things we’d been blaming him for weren’t his fault and the things we’d been doing to him weren’t fair.

he told us that stephen couldn’t help it that he was stephen. he didn’t choose to be stephen. he was born stephen.

and that’s when it clicked.

we all felt pretty stupid, i think, for sort of falling for it, but i’ll be damned if i’ve ever had a teacher get a lesson across so utterly and completely as mr. bernard did.

it hadn’t even been the full week.

I keep getting people asking about bowling on this post so I’m just gonna repost this drawing I made on Twitter

How did her grandmother fill 4 vases?

She was a very large woman. Easily 12 feet tall.

then why the heck is her family not tall too?!?!

Pop-pop was very small so it canceled out.

This was originally part of its own post, but I figured I should add it here so all the Bawling/Balling/Bowling family lore can be in one place, sorry if you’ve seen it before.

So 12-foot-tall Grandma was actually a star basketball player back in the 70s for a very brief period of time– her career as a professional athlete only lasted between October and December of 1972.

The reason for this was because John Basketball, the inventor of the sport, realized that the WNBA had not yet been established, so he asked her to please sit out until the Basketball Elders got a chance to make a space in the sport for women. Grandma thought this was pretty bullshit, but she decided to leave the NBA anyway because nobody could keep up with her balling, and the sport had lost its novelty.

After she settled down in her new-but-less-exciting career as an astronaut, she met Pop-pop on the moon. It turns out that he had been a big fan of her and had recorded all her matches on U-matic, and had fallen in love with the sport.

Anyway things happened, the two fell in love and got married, and Grandma and Pop-pop had a beautiful family together. She became especially close with one of her granddaughters, Ballin’ Jessie, who inherited her propensity for basketball. The two would often dunk hoops with each other, and developed trash-talk as their love language.

Pop-pop also had an interest in the sport, but his height had made it difficult for him to keep up with the others. In fact, he had actually lost about a foot in height as a result of being compressed by Earth’s stronger gravitational pull. Despite this, Pop-pop was never really bothered by this because of his exceptional love for Grandma, who was always more than happy to lend him a helping hand.
