There is a parallel universe where Tumblr is actually a great functioning site

As an adult you must cultivate the skill of “Gross! Oh, well. Not my business.”

It’s crazy and fucked up that being yourself is actually the solution.

the problem with everyone becoming a reviewer and essayist now is that, plainly and gently, a lot of these people are not smart enough for the position

i don’t know about you guys but the main reason i am still on tumblr in 2024 is BECAUSE it is the most cloutless least influential social media app out there and that is the experience i am after. absolutely none of this will ever translate into significant attention or real success in my life and that is so beautiful.

at this point how are you not anti-capitalist? don’t you think it’s messed up that people can work 2 jobs but are living paycheck to paycheck but are supposed to have thousands in savings, and be expected to pay for healthcare, food, and rent? how about the fact that you can probably never own a house in your lifetime, and if you want to live away from your family you will need to share a place with 6 roommates just to keep things afloat? does it make you angry that you’re dying for a living? don’t you think it’s mind boggling how the last time there was a technological space race it was between two super power countries but recently it has between the 2 richest men in the world? don’t you think the wealth gap between average person is far too wide? don’t you feel angry reading about “self made” success stories about how “hard” they worked when there is an obvious inequality in the opportunities they had in the first place? doesn’t it make you scared that the earth is being destroyed by exploitative capitalism? doesn’t it make you angry?

there's no shame in continuing to live with your parents as an adult, but it does have an undeniable poisoning effect on your brain that you can't start healing until you live somewhere else

You have a completely useless superpower in a world full of amazing superpowers. You have been a laughing-stock for years, until you started using your powers for evil… nobody is laughing now.

Neil Gaimen’s time has come. Is anyone ever surprised by this point?

Not because “Oh, I never really liked them” or “I knew they were bad news.” Rather because… no one gets this famous without something to hide.

Here's something a lot of people have to understand: EVERYONE has skeletons in their closets and those with fame especially. Some more grotesque than others and in need of clearing out but either way, there's a reason "Never meet your heroes" is a terribly timeless cliche.

This artist, that writer, this actor, that director? Each of them have some sort of dirt that can be used against them. Be it something they did long ago they hoped to bury rather than make right or a reoccurring pattern of bad behavior behind the scenes. There's something.

For those who made a big impact on the world or in a niche of said world, their work was not a fluke. They were or became very bad people but produce works of art that spoke to the human soul. J.K. Rowling's queen of the TERFs but Harry Potter was still a worldwide phenomenon. It wasn’t a fluke, it didn’t trick us, it was just that good.

Vic Mignogna has been a creepazoid since the nineties for those willing to do actual research on the claims. BUT many of his roles in Anime are considered legends even among sub-onlies. His voice acting as Edward Elric speaks for himself. Still a sleezeball.

I could go on but the point is we can and should recognize these artists for their bad behavior but know that they garnered fans for a damn good reason. That's nothing to be ashamed of in this age of Social Media where more are empowered to have a voice compared to real life.

There will be many more Rowlings, Gaimens, Austin St. Johns that either reveal their true colors or change into something nearly different from who they were before. We weren't "swindled" or "tricked." We just didn't know. And some of us, I bet, wish we never did know.

It's selfish but natural to wish that these allegations weren't coming out of the woodwork and up-ending your escape from the world that's already a crapsack. But we can never truly escape reality. Take a break, sure. But our letter to Hogwarts was always a pipe dream.

laios is perhaps the only character not to get the "they mentioned their favorite food once and the fandom makes it their whole personality" treatment. his favorite food is cheesecake and absolutely nobody cares

the best part about having a job is being able to go through doors other people aren’t allowed to use the worst part is everything else
