Art snobs are actually a thousand times less annoying than people who respond to everything with "it's not that deep bro"

Yeah so the actual No Kings protests ended up going fantastically and his special birthday parade was pathetic. I'm satisfied

Yknow what would've been REALLY funny? If everyone planned their Pride parades surrounding the Annoying Orange's special baby birthday boy parade's street and the entire city was all rainbows and they did something so weird and or cool that that was what got covered on the news instead. That would be really funny. just saying.

Tbh about a year or so ago I remembered I had a Tumblr account because I saw a @phantomrose96 post on Pinterest and was like, oh yeah, that looks fun I should go back

"tumblr humor is only funny to tumblr users" NOT true. those bitches on pinterest love us.

"autistic people need instructions for every simple task" okay how about we talk about the neurotypicals not following clear instructions. what do you mean it didn't work the way you wanted, i gave you the instructions. oh you didn't follow them? you didn't see where i clearly indicated the directions you were supposed to follow for this task? and you're shocked it didn't turn out right? you decided to pull a Jared I'm 19 and go rogue? you're surprised the road less travelled isn't fucking paved because no one travels it? do you get off on this

This was a really good sketching prompt actually. It's. almost impossible to capture and I love it

Heart pupils as a threat display

You know what? I vibe heavily with this take actually

the amongus crewmate really was a gift to humanity. the world had enough crudely drawn dicks on bathroom stall doors we needed another shape to instantly strike annoyance and discomfort in the viewer

Male character: I'm not attracted to women.

Fandom: Oh, he's gay.

Female character: I'm not attracted to men.

Fandom: Oh, she's a lesbian.

Any character: I'm not attracted to anybody.

Fandom: Well, we don't know that they're ace/aro/aroace. It's open for interpretation. They're not canonically ace/aro/aroace unless they specifically say they are.

Hmmmm. I wonder why we're so frustrated in fandom spaces. I wonder if there's a reason.

The fun part of this is when you finally get hit with the realization that it's all utter BS and start taking pride in being undesirable. Very fun. Very freeing. I love having weird haircuts and hairy legs and wearing shapeless clothes with cool designs and comfortable short lengths. Boys don't like that, you say? I won't get flirted with? Praise the goddess above

You'd think growing up aro/ace would make someone immune to the "you must strive to be sexy and beautiful" pressure of society. But I think it can actually make it worse because, lacking your own internal frame of reference, you just get left absorbing the cultural signals that the minimum bar for attractive is a 10/10 bombshell 23-year-old skinny white Hollywood actress with significant makeup and some plastic surgery.

Like it takes longer to gather the life experience to recognize average-looking and even "ugly" people are attractive and desirable to a significant portion of the population.

people who are just finding out about internet tracking and data mining in the year 2025 and that your special robot friend does not respect your privacy lol

Also it's not "peak your interest", it's "pique your interest"

weary and wary are not the same word and have very different meanings and if i see one more person use wearily when they mean warily I’m gonna combust

I guess I'm not human lol guys pack it up it's been a good run

Seriously though why would they do this to her. Let her be a dirty goblin!!!!!!

this is the worst fucking day of my life, and yet i am not surprised in the slightest.

toph is an icon for disabled people. she’s one of so few blind characters who is a hero and whose disability is not her weakness or fatal flaw. while it does make her life harder, as any disability does, it also gives her strength. she is the greatest earthbender of her generation. she invented a whole new subsection of bending. the people behind the live action production had a chance to make history just by doing the bare minimum: casting a blind actress to play a blind character. they couldn’t even do that.

not only that, but they’re making her “slightly more feminine” to “humanize” her. as if there weren’t so many young girls out there who looked up to toph because she was weird and didn’t fit the mold. in “tales of ba sing se” she tells katara, “i don’t care what i look like. i’m not looking for anyone’s approval. i know who i am.” to have a female character who doesn’t conform to beauty standards is so important especially right now with the prevalent beauty influencer culture.

while the original cartoon’s representation of women wasn’t perfect, it was diverse. katara and ty lee were both feminine. they liked to dress up and look pretty. toph is not feminine. she grew up forced to dress in formal clothes and style herself a certain way and decided to liberate herself from that. all three of these women are incredibly strong and incredibly talented at what they do, and none of that is impacted by their appearance or gender presentation.

every day, my hatred for the netflix version of avatar grows.

Yeah I have trauma about it but unfortunately it's a really stupid thing to have trauma about. Yeah honestly if it had happened in a different way at a different time it would have been completely fine and normal. Yeah man like it was just a total confluence of circumstance and now my brain has an allergy against it. Yeah like a peanut allergy but stupider.

I found the one person in 2025 who doesn't know Legend of Zelda is a Nintendo property

There's a special sort of joy in introducing a trans man to gaming via BOTW, the game famous for letting you play as a pretty little twunk with high amounts of goblin energy and a story-required drag outfit
