None of the people he showed look like each other and yet he looks like all of them

True crime podcast but you realize as you're listening that the host is just describing episodes of Scooby-Doo

twitter limiting the amount of tweets you get to read per day is ridiculous but if tiktok limited the amount of videos people got to see per day it would be the biggest win for mental health since ssris

now would be the absolute funniest time for tumblr to unban porn

Wait this is funny

Never quit never give-up!

Do NOT feed the Reddit refugees!!!

They must learn to hunt on their own, lest they become dependent on the native Tumblr lifeform for food and shelter!!!

Watching reddit refugees and native tumblrinas intermingle is like that scene from the Lion King 2: Simba's Pride, where all the lions realize that the only thing that separates them is mud and they shouldn't fight because they're family.

Except the mud is crippling social anxiety and the family is a rotting capitalist system that ruined both our respective sites, but in different ways.

hakuna matata.

You gotta love that Tumblr is on the rise because of Twitter and Reddit going down, and not because Tumblr has actually done anything to really improve its website.

I personally kin with a website that accidentally and coincidentally fails upwards.

The site that wins simply by remaining upright.

We are literally this meme, posted eons ago, in our ancient texts.

We already have written our story, our destiny, in the art we forget.

idk how much this made the news in the Americas but the Hellenic coast guard watched as a vessel carrying more than 400 (some estimates say 700) migrants capsized and sank in the Mediterranean. 104 people survived. official death toll is 79 because the rest is missing, and might never be found. There are claims that many children were below deck.

Frontex and the Hellenic Coast Guard was aware of the vessel and the dangerous situation it was in for days, but did not intervene

The coast guard released this photo. They came this close but did not intervene. EU and the Greek coast guard sat and waited for this boat to sink

Survivors and rescuers claim that the boat capsized after being towed by the coast guard at high speed.

if this is true, at best they caused an accident out of carelessness and immediately retreated to cover it up, or they committed a massacre.

id: a series of tweets about a boat, with migrants on it, capsizing and leaving 104 survivors.

tweet one, from niki kitsantonis, reads: "Photos of migrant boat taken by Greek coast guard helicopter on Tuesday indicates hundreds were aboard. Official death toll so far 79 with 104 survivors. Shipping Ministry official says boat sunk in spot where sea is 4,000 meters deep, so retrieving other victims may be impossible."

tweet two reads: "The vast search and rescue operation continues with hundreds missing and at least 78 dead, the Hellenic Coast guard said in a statement on Thursday. A new photo has been released by #Greece's coast guard showing the fishing vessel that appears to be photographed at night time."

tweet three, from iasonas apostolopoulos, reads: "[thread emoji] New item that completely changes the data! Rescuers revealed that the new coast guard was towing them at high speed, this destabilized the boat and sank it! If this is true, we are not talking about criminal negligence, but about an act that caused the death of 600 people."

to all the horrible people in the notes blaming what happened on the migrants themselves and are blindly believing the greek coast guard's words, the bbc has literal proof against their claims on what went down. a distress call, a maritime analytics platform showing that multiple boats stopped to provide supplies to the ship at the exact same spot at different hours, the owners of the those boats providing their own accounts, court records, shipping logs...all of the evidence comes together to show that the vessel was in the same spot for hours upon hours and DID call for help.
