So how is it that second-hand embarrassment is the single most powerful and weakening emotion one can feel from media?
Tragedy? Delicious.
A hard-earned happy ending? Wonderful.
A convoluted narrative? Keeps you glued.
Simple slice of life? It’s entertaining.
Second-hand embarrassment? Hang on, g, I gotta pause this for fifteen minutes, no, I cannot continue watching this right now, I am just not strong enough.
(I go into GREAT LENGTH under the cut…)
what I REALLY don’t like is this post was made in 2017
oh learning this wasnt made like, yesterday, made me jump out of my SKIN.
Who is @professional-dog-hugger really
I’m just a dumbass who unfortunately could have never predicted this hellish timeline. I am not the OP, but this website, in all it’s dysfunctional glory, made me appear to be since the actual OP appears to have deactivated. Sorry on behalf of the staff for the mix up I guess
OP was assassinated for being too powerful and you were left as the scapegoat im so sorry.
I can’t believed tumblr force-kinned me into an unholy prophet, doomed to pay for the crimes of another
literally the most terrifying vibes I’ve seen on any post ever
it’s hard to remember that u have no obligation in life other than to be kind and give love. like. you were not put on this earth to work a part time job or get a degree or have a fancy career. you were put on this earth to smile and make other people smile, to spread happiness. your reason for living doesn’t have to go any deeper than ‘living’. just breathe. make friends with a plant. drink your water. i fucking love you.
“Everyone wants a definition of creativity that makes what they do into something special and what everyone else does into nothing special. But the fact is, we're ALL creative. The biggest difference between creators isn’t their imagination – it’s how hard they work. Ideas are easy. Doing stuff is hard. The fact is, creativity is cheap, hard work is hard, and everyone wants to think his ideas are precious unique snowflakes, but ideas are like assholes: we’ve all got ‘em.”

OH NO MY HEART :’)
The kids are alright
how the fuck did the fire nation beat fucking anyone their element can't do shit to any of the others
shoot fire at an airbender? they blow fire back in your face now you got burn face
a waterbender sends a wave at you and you defend with fire? congrats dipshit now you've turned that attack into steam in your eyes at best or boiling water on your skin at worst
you throw fire they throw rock you get hit with hot rock war over
Literally the only way the fire nation fought enemies was with slow technological veachiles (drills and air boats) and fucking AMBUSHING PEOPLE. AND IT WAS MAINLY AMBUSHING CIVILIANS (against the Geneva Convention). The fire nations army is full of war criminals
You think they have the Geneva Convention in ATLA? They don’t even have Geneva.
This really cool and then I turned the sound on and now I am… unsettled
Good god. I want to take care of it and also never let it out of a cage cause it’s definitely gonna turn on us
Omigosh I love it and will protect it
Omg it needs to be protected!!
This is the single most adorable sphere I’ve seen in my entire life and if anything happened to it I’d kill everyone in this website and then myself
How can anyone be afraid of a robot that yells, “Here we go! WEEEEEEEEE!” Like a little kid as it rolls around?
a short lil moment about art and influence. featuring these two random boys ? i don’t know who they are. i think they’re in love
honest to god feel like we're on the brink of civil war here in the states
if I see one more 'viva la revolution' type post I'm gonna start throwing rocks. this isn't exciting or fun this is sobering and terrifying. the president of the united states is threatening to sic the country's military on its own people. are you aware of how fucked this is? this isn't some movie or book or video game or whatever, this is real life and people are going to die.
stop acting like this is some great and powerful thing. it's not. it's ugly and scary.
Parasite is the movie that truly captures capitalism like any other movie before, capitalism is not a class struggle between the poor and the rich. It’s between the poor and the poorest for survival. The rich are on the hill isolated from everything and everyone, unawares what happens down there, the rich doesn’t need to fight, they already “won”.
Nothing illustrate more that in the movie that the scene where the rich family returns from camp because it is raining and they’re cluesless about the fight between the two poor families that takes place inside their own home. And when the fight actually hit the rich they came out as victim.
Family portrait~
Opal with a tail because why not? She's cute anyway 💕
