"canon compliant" is such a wild tag to find on an RPF fic

smartphone storage plateauing in favor of just storing everything in the cloud is such dogshit. i should be able to have like a fucking terabyte of data on my phone at this point. i hate the fucking cloud

"AO3 doesn't need a "dislike" button"

Um, actually, it already has one. Depending on your specs, it might look a little different but over all it looks kinda like this:

You can find it at the corner of your screen, which corner is dependent on your layout.

Anyway, if you dislike a fic, you can hit this Dislike Button until the fic goes away. It really is pretty amazing actually.

Saw this on a door at work.

Lemmings don’t jump off of cliffs unless they’re being chased. Frogs don’t stay in boiling water unless they’ve been lobotomized first. Crabs don’t pull each other back into the bucket unless they are desperately and randomly grabbing for anything to try to get themselves out, out of fear for their lives.

Actions taken in specific, negative conditions don’t exemplify the nature of all beings.

Before you mock a sheep for staying with the flock, ask what dogs nip at its heels when it strays too far, and what wolves wait just beyond the edge of the pasture.

actual criticisms of academia:

cost of education acting as class barrier

exploitation of graduate workers

colonialist past and present

ties to military industrial complex

danger of power structure entrenching and justifying orthodox views on social issues

criticisms of academia that get made:

those damn ivory tower academics are wasting money learning about things

i think twitter is actually really funny and good sometimes. where else are you seeing shit like this

Please keep posting about this Taylor Swift situation. it's so entertaining and hilarious to me. It's not the drama it's the absurdity and ridiculousness of it all that has me hooked.

god theres sooooo many shenanigans that have happened over the years but if we’re talking right now, then uh, here is a story in pictures involving a (justified) bad review for her album

the extremely normal fandom is trying to doxx and harass literally every member of staff they can find at this publication. they were also tweeting gifs of exploding buildings at them and saying “this will be ur hq” and yeah, its likely jokes, but they’re flying pretty close to an investigation there lmao

So we all know that Tumblr is US-centric. But to what degree? (and can we skew the results of this poll by posting it at a time where they should be asleep?)

Reblog to increase sample size!

this has been discussed before but reducing female characters to the girlboss braincell holder in the name of combating misogyny in fandom is ironically also a form of misogyny

As a kid, when your parents are poor, you're poor. If they don't have money, that means none of you have money. But if someone's parents are rich, that doesn't necessarily mean the kid is. Sometimes rich peoples' kids aren't rich kids, they're just some rich freak's exotic pets that can talk but aren't allowed to.

I've met a lot of people who are lonely and want friends and when I open up to them, they instantly get way too much for me. I need slower friendships and it feels terrible to say in a world where so many people are lonely, but if I feel like they're placing too much of their social and emotional health too heavily onto me I will not be able to be their friend. I am not a savior or a mom, and I can't have relationships that continously drain me without anything in return

My ideal idea for friends and partners is another human who is just as full without me as they are with me. I can be supportive and encouraging and I would be a shoulder to cry on if I knew them long enough, but I don't want to be somebody's second mother. I want relationships in my life that enrich something that is already full, because no one person should be your entire life. I would not want to have that weight on my shoulders or put it on another

I keep thinking about this over the years: When I first got really into mcyt in 2020 I thought to myself at some point "in a few years when this mcyt thing is just a phase I once had, I hope I still remember TommyInnit and I hope I still check in on him from time to time because that kid is going places"

because now mcyt really is just a phase I once had (a much longer phase than I once anticipated), I don't watch anything mcyt related anymore, but I still keep tabs on TommyInnit and he just never fucking disappoints

Whats the life expectancy "typically" of Toto?

Most Quakers average around 20-30years

Toto though, Toto birds are extra special in that they are immune to worldly rules so they get to live forever
