#it's uncomfortable

[polaris-stuff]

Friendly reminder that saying "omg your art is better than mine" to an artist is not a compliment

It's really one of those inane problems, but we need to talk about how women with large breasts suffer

Saw some short/ reel/ tik-tok/ story/ whatever of a person walking with the camera facing down at the floor and the caption "only true hispanics will know where this is" (or something like that), and it irked me for reasons I won't go into right now, but I went into the comments sections and loved how there were quite a few non-US hispanic people saying things like "wtf is a Ross or Marshalls?" or "I was going to say Chedraui but it's not" or some other local store from any of the many other hispanic countries.

Anyway, been finding generalized posts increasingly annoying. Probably because the algorithms bombard me with them.

I didn’t miss that social cue I just thought it was stupid 

[corviiids]

my top bit of advice going into the new year: compliment people. especially strangers. literally everyone you interact with if you can. when you buy coffee in the morning compliment the barista's tattoos. when you're chatting with a coworker tell them that by the way you like their outfit. always find something they've chosen to do on purpose. nail polish, jewellery, tattoos, hair colour/style, statement accessory, outfit, etc are all good bets. things people hope will be noticed. things that aren't too personal so it doesn't make them uncomfortable (eg probably not their physical features). i've gotten into the habit of scanning everyone i talk to for something about them that i think is cool so i can tell them. it's a great habit because it makes me notice people and realise just how many neat little details there are in people's presentation of themselves that might pass me by if i wasn't paying attention. and it brings out so much joy. you'd be surprised how much it disarms people to receive an unexpected compliment from someone they don't know. it is the most sincere smile you will see all day long. it feels nice to make people happy but it also means you win the social interaction. establish dominance by complimenting a stranger's earrings and disappearing into the fog

The horrifying ordeal of taking pictures of yourself in public 👎

[soopsiedaisies]

this is for those who despair over seeing ships or tropes that make them uncomfortable while they do their little scrolly-scroll on ao3, acting like they aren’t responsible for their own internet experience

(alternatively, the back button also works)

🗣️ huh?? what do you mean I haven’t posted any Link signing propaganda yet??

[partykeet]

Having emotions is not a moral failing. It is a very basic and normal human thing to have. It's what you do with them that makes it a failing.

holy hECK i wish i was writing smut rn

I hate when people try to be some kinda funnyman in response to powerful art. Maybe you should just earnestly feel things once in a while, babe.

I ❤️ self-loathing characters, characters who struggle with monstrosity (either fearing or embracing it), characters who are so lonely, who have a gaping hole in their chest, who bottle up & repress their feelings, who claw their way up & have ambitions, who fall down & lose everything, who search for identity & purpose yet can’t see themselves outside of what others want from or expect of them, who are hurt & hurt others, who long & grieve, who lie & pretend. characters who are messy & flawed & human

"outrage is not activism" and just like that, I know you're a white person

[thisismyobsessionnow]

I don't know, unpopular opinion maybe?

I kinda hate it when artists make the audience crouch down and jump
