somewhere out there right now is a kid with curly hair being raised by people who have wavy hair at best and those people are giving them 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner and telling them to dry brush it. and that kid is gonna spend all of middle school and high school hating their hair and moping over the flat iron. they're being told right now that if they don't dry-brush their curl pattern into oblivion every morning it means they're unkempt and gross even though they naturally have the kind of ringlets that a thousand bridezillas would commit horrible murders for every june. it's happening right now it's an absolute epidemic and a tragedy every time

just saw a furry go "ugh pup masks are the worst thing to happen to the furry community" and it's like what are you talking about those are your cousins, at the end of the day you're both pretending to be gay dog men, i think it's just an aesthetic choice at that point

I'm very much looking forward to seeing what sorts of cartoons we get when the folks whose formative media experience was spending hours a day parked in front of an iPad watching endless YouTube content farm pregnant Spider-Man machinima vids become the next generation of creators.

So by the 2010s Temeraire would have been a political figure for literally 200 years. imagine the tumblr politician discourse:

It’s so fucking stupid to put a politician on a pedestal like y’all do with Temeraire. You know he voted for a bill that said only unmarried women can have bank accounts, right?

🦠 soylentgreeniswerewolf ✅✅ follow

Yeah, he voted for that in eighteen fucking seventeen you dumbass, when literally the only way for a woman to have her own bank account was to be an officer in the aerial corps. That bill was an expansion of rights.

Like look if you want to criticize the guy for being part of the imperialist war machine and furthering the colonization of Australia, I’m right there with you, but criticize him for things he actually did and learn some historical context, for fuck’s sake.

Ok but you know he was sent to Australia as a literal prison sentence, right? He didn’t have a choice. You know this? It’s important to me that Tumblr knows this

the point stands about the imperialism tho. And also it took aaaaaages for him to come out in favor of marriage equality even tho his first captain was probably bi.

Politician makes compromises to get shit done and doesn’t voice unpopular opinions when it would lose him votes, news at 11

All of this is fine actually but I don’t know why Tumblr—the socialism website— doesn’t seem to fucking care that all his early writings are super capitalist yay resource extraction bs.

HE WAS HATCHED IN 1805. DO YOU IMAGINE YOU WOULD HAVE PERFECT MARXIST THEORY A DECADE BEFORE MARX WAS EVEN BORN.

Apparently there was some kind of race scheduled at a local park or something so I've been trying to avoid the main trail but a little while ago when I had to cross near it I overheard the following shouted exchange

Higher feminine voice: woo, look at you go! You're jogging! Keep it up!

Lower masculine voice (panting): you know it! Last place is still a place, baby!

And goddamn if that didn't rewire my brain a little bit.

Last place is still a place, baby.

"nothing is real atoms never touch each other youve never touched anything in your life" ok. well when i pet my dog he is soft and when he licks my hand it is wet and that is far more real to me than whatevers going on at an atomic level

Naps are a forbidden technique, I think. If you pull them off just right you'll access a pool of near-endless rejuvenating power, but if you mess up some inscrutable part of the ritual your vitality and might will be sapped and you'll be left at the mercy of your opponents

It really is 2003 again Jesus Tapdancing Christ.

Like, all Republicans did was replace Iraq and gay people with Iran and trans people.

I know I've said it before but every rewatch I do cements this thought further - elijah wood's performance in LOTR is absolutely insane, they really had a character whose name means "wise by experience", hired an 18-year-old to do it, and he delivered so much that not only is it a beautiful and moving role on its own, it's a performance equal to those of the absolute powerhouses he played side by side with like ian holm and ian mckellen. to name just a few

Y’all I just learned that unusually high sugar and carb cravings are a symptom of dopamine deficiency

If you’re adhd and experience a deep and all-encompassing urge to eat cake at least five times a day boy do I have news for you

I don't wanna hear one more bitch saying that contacting your senators&reps doesn't work

Btw, this is FAR from getting rid of the land selloff from the BBB. Keep at it. Mike Lee specifically is notable because he's from Utah, the state that's pushed for that sell off very heavily for mining income.
