those are distraction waffles

its so funny when usamericans of all people are like omg usa is 50 countries in a trench coat when you're from a country like india where the first language of people changes atleast 20 times across state lines.

lets be clear though, the establishment of the united states involved a genocide of diverse cultures which is precisely what has made it so uncannily uniform today. from thousands of indigenous languages you now demand everyone speak one. sometimes you'll accommodate spanish at best.

This is the dumbest anti-American take I’ve seen in a while

here’s why vine was and will always be superior to tiktok you can’t really spread a lot of misinfo in 6 seconds you had to go viral on the strength of your humor and not on the allure of insane conspiracy theories or MRA talking points it’s why vines legacy will be shit like “back at it at krispy kreme” and not the downfall of democracy

To be clear I am not denying that vines was superior.

But if you think tiktok is the downfall of democracy you're either not paying attention or on the WRONG side of tiktok. There are tons of people over there dedicated to making sure the masses have access to accurate information, exposing corruption, and organizing against fascism. Tiktok is not the problem. For every bad actor there's a good one and as we like to say here at the tumblr dot com: curate your experience.

Reading comprehension quiz (unit 2):

they should make a pill that makes people in their 20s feel good about where their lives are going

Impressive to me that no one said the same thing twice

Have someone done this already?

Ortus: I believe that we are trapped in a labyrinth of, consciously or unconsciously, Lady Harrowhark's making. Although she is a mere seventeen years of age, she has endured enough pain and accrued enough power to fell a Lyctor. Do not underestimate the machinations of her dark, twisted mind.

The machinations of Harrow's dark, twisted mind: What if I was Gideon's cavalier 🤔🤔🤔🗡🗡🗡What if she was a charming princess and I was an impoverished little nun 🤴🤴🤴💓💓💓 What if she worked at a coffee shop ☕☕☕🤗🤗🤗

snooki going this hard for warrior nun wasn’t on my bingo card but i’ll take it

"It is quite something for a series that’s core message is to embrace social outcasts with humanity and dignity to use a marginalised and stigmatised community’s aesthetics as promotional material. And, for that same series to use the real trauma of queer conversion therapy as an allegory within the show, without then including any significant queer representation within. 

Queerbaiting is an accusation that has been both diluted and weaponised over the past few years. The solution to this does not lie in harassing young actors to come out, but in holding major companies accountable for their parasitical allyship and appropriation of queerness, supporting openly LGBTIQ+ shows, and demanding queer voices behind the scenes, as well as in front of the camera."

I see your "Beatrice taught Ava to swim" and raise you "Ava took beginner classes with four year olds"

I see your “Ava took beginner classes with four year olds"

And raise to you “Beatrice signed Ava up for the beginner classes with four year olds and was the one who took her and was the most concerned person there and the moms asked which one was hers thinking it was a child and she just point to Ava who is flailing like a flounder in a 3ft deep area”
