all goofing aside I genuinely don't understand the urge to reimagine Taylor Allison Swift as a secretly queer icon when the pop music scene(TM) is like. literally overflowing with women who actually like women. Gaga and Kesha and Miley and Halsey are right there. Rina Sawayama and Hayley Kiyoko and Rebecca Black and Kehlani and Victoria Monét and Miya Folick if you're willing to get slightly less top 100. Janelle and Demi for them nonbinary takes on liking girls. like what are we doing here. like I'm not even saying you can't enjoy Taylor but why would you hang all your little gay hopes on her.

THESIS: the real reason that people stay on this hellsite is not “chronological order” or “the drama” or whatever (per se), but is instead linked to how tumblr, unlike most social media, is not optimised to give content as short of a half-life as possible, but instead is optimised to let content continue to cycle for months, years, even decades. this has in turn led to a more consistent centralised site “culture” in which there is more coherent linkage among different areas of the site, thus also explaining why its content permeates so thoroughly throughout the internet.

“a token of our friendship”

proceeds to give Bilbo the second most valuable thing in a mountain of gold while under a dragon-sickness that won’t let him part with any of it

purge of 2002? of 2012? what ARE those?

Oh, how quickly the past is forgotten. 

They are part of the reason A03 is a thing now. Not the whole reason, but part of it. 

The Great Purges of 2002 and 2012 are when ff.net got a wild hair up their ass about THINK OF THE CHILDREN and nuked any fic posted on there that was explicit. Thousands upon thousands of nc-17 smutfics were lost.

It’s what led to the creation of alternate hosting sites for smutty fic…AdultFanfiction was the one I went to…but thousands of fics would never be recovered.

Ok but Ruby having to use her white privilege to get information and get Lindy to listen to the Doctor. Lindy thinking black people all look the same to the point that she didn't question the Doctor popping up a second time until later on. Her being so shocked at him and Ruby being in the same room. Ruby and the Doctor saying things in the same tone and similar language but the Doctor is the one that gets called condescending and horrible.

Face to face contact with the Doctor being considered unacceptable and akin to contamination. Hoochie Pie calling the TARDIS voodoo. Lindy saying that it was the Doctor's duty to save her, but he "isn't like them" so they refuse to travel with him. Lindy's friends talking about taming and owning the wilderness like their ancestors did.

The episode wasn't themed around "boohoo social media". It's about how racist and colonialist structures permeate all of society and are damaging to everyone, and that the comments that people make are the tip of the iceberg that is their active bias and prejudice. I don't get how people don't understand that.

back in my day, taylor swift used to do very personally charitable shit like buying a house for a pregnant fan and paying $30,000 for a fan’s college tuition. venue employees used to say that she would leave aside extra tickets for people who had accidentally bought scam/fake tickets. her albums used to be complete pieces of art and not cash grabs that you had to buy 10+ versions of to get every track from the album

ADHD is so embarrassing. I ran out of conditioner and I've been too busy to go buy more so I've been showering without for like 2 days. I just turned around and finally noticed four bottles of conditioner on my shelf. I stocked up. I always stock up. How did I even forget that I stocked up? The bottles just faded into the background. What's wrong with me

I love that the internet saw people comparing women and other alienated groups of people and went, “they’re dating,” and, “they support each other.” We’re improving as a society.
