In my defense, your honor, I really am the dumbest bitch alive
When my parrot wants pets off someone he’ll go up to them, say hello, and lower his head to expose his neck. Recently, however, he’s been doing this to a pitch black crevice behind the couch, even trying to cajole the darkness with kissy noises and getting sad when the void won’t pet him. How do I explain that dark chasms are not friends?
There’s a ghost in there
consider: teenagers aren’t apathetic about everything they’re just used to you shitting all over whatever they show excitement about
Teen: *gets a job*
“I GOT THE JOB!”
Parents: Well, when I was your age, I already had 5 jobs and was supporting my family
How Obama joked: here is a video of my birth *shows clip from Lion King*
How Trump jokes: haha my vice president wants to kill all the gay people
Hey future historians, please note that although tumblr is a fountain of hyberbolic sarcasm, there is exactly 0% sarcasm or hyperbole in this post.
the whole “no one is straight or gay” thing is Bad because 1.) you’re saying that straight people, aka our oppressors, aren’t really straight and can be included in our community 2.) you aren’t progressive for saying gay men and lesbians don’t exist lmao you sound like a conservative
i had to quit my lgbt group at school bc literally everyone in it (minus maybe 2 people?) insisted it was impossible to be gay and it was wrong for me to say i was a lesbian without giving men a real chance can we just collectively agree to Stop
literally i wasn’t wrong when i said they sound like homophobic conservatives LMAO
smug thinkpiece writer: “the internet is about the sound bite, the tweet, tiny fragments of information that only take two or three seconds to consume”
me, thinking back to the 5000-word tumblr post i scrolled past yesterday where two classicists, three high schoolers, and a witch all got in a very pointless argument about hades and persephone or shakespeare or something: uh,
Today is the 3 year aniversary of me and my friend getting left behind on a school field trip in hawaii and desperately trying to convince the chaperones and our own parents that were thousands of miles away to believe it wasn’t actually an April fools joke.
The misinformation is still ongoing.
I saw a post on here the other day about that video of Sinclair owned stations.
About how Sinclair owned stations made their anchors read an identical script bashing MSNBC and CNN and CBS (none of those stations in the video are owned by the major outlets, they are owned by Sinclair. The logos in the corner – of those more familiar large brands – are because they are affiliate stations, they are paying NBC, CBS, ABC etc for the right to put that logo there and are not owned by them).
Yet the post I saw on here with that video attached had it framed as if it is the major large networks creating propaganda against the smaller local news stations…. which is literally the exact opposite of what is happening in that video.
What we are seeing in that video is a right-wing media company that swooped in and purchased as many small local news stations across the country that they could, and is now forcing them to read a script that bashes all news sources outside of right-wing control.
Yet it is so easy to foist a narrative onto things like that on this site and others, regardless of what is actually going on, which is very much the exact problem.
Given what I am talking about specifically, here are some sources, so you know I’m not just creating spin here or editorializing about what that video showed:

Basically, and I know I keep saying this over and over and over again, don’t believe everything you read on tumblr, and please please don’t use this site as your primary news source.
some things i’ve learned about adulthood that no one warns you about
- you will in fact continue to have acne past the age of twenty
- you will eventually hit a point where you start to feel icky inside if you go too long without eating some sort of vegetables
- depending on your current level of athleticism/physical activity as well as the kind of activities you did as a kid/teenager, your joints may start acting whack in your twenties, despite what everyone says about that not happening until middle age
- eventually you will reach a point where you wonder how you were able to stay up until 3am nearly every night and be perfectly fine the next day (and this moment will come much younger than you expect)
- it is much harder to meet new people after you’re done with school than sitcoms would have you believe
- don’t let society tell you shit: it is perfectly acceptable to live with your parents after you graduate, there’s no need to be broke and miserable just so you can have some misguided attempt at independence straight out of school
