Kinda wish that people would be giving the same kind of criticism and scrutiny to Internet Historian that they have been giving to James Somerton. IH is a much bigger and more well known channel and his cave video got a lot more attention. Like I know his video got taken down, and he's only done this to one video (that we know of) but he employed the same sort devious tactics to try and hide his plagiarism, so would be nice to see the same sort of outrage for him too.

ryan reynolds is one of the better options for a celebrity on tumblr since he’s more likely to be normal about the bizarre fan content this website is built on but so help me GOD if any other mainstream celebrities come here I don’t know how I’m going to cope

[faunandfloraas]

Nothing funnier to me than a fansite that horrifically white washes pics of the guys until they genuinely look like walking corpses but then will have DO NOT EDIT in all their captions like baby.... if there's anyone here who should have the editing software taken away, it's you...

I thought I was someone who never had an rpf phase, but a memory just resurfaced of finding this bowie fic on the site "teenage wildlife" when I was around 15 about his little personas coming out of his head and becoming real after like, a lightning strike or something, and going on a big adventure to get everyone back together and recover his memories bc they were physical manifestations of those, and I was properly invested. this was before I knew rpf was properly like, a thing, too.

I feel like if one wants — and is trying to give themself — a mental disorder by using the label of ��transid,” then they are probably already disordered in some other way that they are in denial of; because it‘s more stigmatized, or “less interesting” than the neurotype they’ve chosen to mimic… which is sad because they’re masking in two different directions at that point: one to hide their illness, the other to create an illness… which will lead to more illness. Bleak, to be honest.

re: the music rant I tagged you in I am so sorry for tagging you in my double-dose caffeine fueled haterism explosion post. truly was off the shits and did not realize how much random garbage talking points I was ready to spill on the first person to ask

but i love haterism…..

[chewwytwee]

The standard of proof for internet news now seems to be ‘I saw someone else talk about a guy who might exist, so it’s prolly real and DEFINITELY the biggest threat to America rn’

"It even connects to your smart phone!"

Well... that's a huge downside for something to have, don't like that

[payphoneangel]

The fact that some people actually blame tumblr shipping culture for the reason men can’t show intimacy to each other without being perceived as gay is fucking mind boggling to me

[uranium]

the internet has done terrible terrible terrible things for irl communities and subcultures. its strange because there are SOME online spaces where its possible to positively connect with other people you otherwise would have zero access to but i think in general its totally replacing irl spaces and we NEED some kind of healthy balance here. like i am absolutely capable of talking to to the three million gay people in my phone but its almost impossible to actually go to a casual lesbian space with any breathing culture these days

Got denied from joining a discord server fuck this gay earth i read all the rules and everything

[aeide-thea]

the thing abt this website (and really, every other website and also people irl) is that you'll be introduced to a new person who seems interesting (read: has some stuff to say that you agree with), and you'll think, ooh, maybe i should follow them! and then you'll check out their blog and realize, oh, fuck, right, they're the same person who was advocating 'systematic and targeted online harassment' of people who spread a message they dislike, as though that were either an acceptable way to behave or, for that matter, an effective way to convince anyone of anything—like, hello, if you harass your enemies they will shut their ears to you and become further entrenched in their current positions! also decent people will see what you're doing and distrust you even if your cause would otherwise earn their sympathy!

I don’t think I can wait until next year for this game tbh Everything I learn about it has me sick to my stomach with anxiety and worry bro. I just need them to send me the whole script right now I cannot make out where anything is going and it’s driving me up the wall and away from everything completely 🫠

ok NOW i think you're overreactin a bit- in my most humble of opinions anyway

what we've gotten from 8 so far from the latest summit is that proposing of some kind's happening: that's it. it's WAY too early and we have WAY too little information to say what's even going on

as for gaiden, same boat: we have virtually no idea what's happening. there's the fall summit to hopefully try and give more information, but i don't think you should shelf the game entirely just yet

Why aren’t teenagers taught internet safety more in depth in school? Keep your personal info within your personal circle and don’t make it easier for stalkers or creeps who take an interest in you to find you. It’s horribly easy rn to find out pretty much anything you want to know about anyone aged 12-25 because of the internet, so don’t make it that easy!!!
