Came back to see if this thing was still on and I'm wondering if it's worth it to pay for an ad-free experience because every third post, I have an ad for a pair of orthopedic tennis shoes that I already purchased for my dad and probably am not going to purchase again soon.

Working class people are mocked as “trailer trash” for living in small modular homes they can afford called “trailers” or “mobile homes.” Upper middle class people are praised as “environmentally conscious” and “minimalist” for “downsizing” and living in small modular homes called “tiny houses.” Rich people have pretentiously re-branded something poor people have been ridiculed for doing for decades as some sort of innovative, trendy lifestyle choice they came up with themselves. They use language that lets them continue to be snobby and make sure everyone knows they aren’t poor, they simply chose to live like a poor person out of their own virtue. The only difference between a “sustainable tiny home community” and a “trailer park" is the socioeconomic background of the people who live there.

The blue eyes mark this crow as young, not a full adult.

You’ve been pranked by a teen hooligan.

You’ve been pranked by,

You’ve been sticked by,

A teen hooligan

It’s an adult jackdaw you’ve been pranked by a full grown man who pays taxes

i think this my favorite video of all time. ive been utterly enamored with this video for years – i really believe it captures such a genuine, delightful aspect of humanity and culture from the 2000s, and its so fun to watch!!

Going through the notes on your phone is just like: *codes and passwords that don’t tell you what they lead to* *a random fact* *midnight thoughts from 3 years ago* *a wishlist* *something your friend told you about that you were “definitely going to check out”* *random numbers* *drafts of emotionally charged messages* *shopping lists* *todo lists* *fake poetry* *a diary entry*
