Was thinking about this meme in terms of Vaggie and then I thought of a few other contexts as well:

Alastor to his “employees:”

Then there’s Sir Pentious…

It's gonna be such a funny mess when Donald Trump dies of a stroke on April 1st, 2024.

  • Naturally everybody will think it's fake because of the date only to lose their minds (both positively and negatively based on their opinion of trump) when realizing it's real
  • There will be massive celebrations in the streets and on social media and lots of predictable "don't speak ill of the dead" discourse about those celebrations
  • Weird evangelicals will pull some weird number trick talking about how Jesus was conceived on April 1st and that makes Trump a sort of messiah and people will make fun of that
  • The Republicans (after they're done with the faux-sadness and faux-outrage) will stomp over each other to be his successor but none of them will succeed. They'll tear each other apart and have no single nominee for the November elections.
  • There will be discourse about if Biden and the living former presidents should go to his funeral (they won't, he was a traitor insurrectionist)
  • The Ukraine-Russia War immediately goes in favor of Ukraine as morale in the Kremlin is reduced. China similarly backs off from its threats on Taiwan.
  • Ten thousand new memes are made, some sticking around for years to come.
  • Not a month later a bunch of unofficial biographies of Trump hit the bookshelves, many with new details about just how awful he was.

After seeing the dad how do I channel, I really wanted this one. I searched for it and, tada! Mom how do I? Seems rather new, but I love it anyway.

This is such a cute and helpful idea, especially since some people either didn’t grow up with someone who could teach them this stuff or they grew up with parents who did everything for them. I knew a lot of guys in college who didn’t know how to do laundry or cook!

You know what would be funny? If Tumblr made more money from the Important Blue Check Marks (of unspecified purpose and also crabs) than Twitter did for verification

I know! I hope they release numbers (and that they're impressive).

Also rules that Tumblr had the exact same problem that Twitter is currently dealing with (website too wretched to attract advertisers) and came up with the exact same solution as Twitter-ie sell functionally meaningless little upgrades- and Tumblr succeeded where Twitter didn't because Tumblr successfully tapped into its user base's desire to be obnoxious

Like Tumblr introduced sponsored posts YEARS after every other website but it was a smash hit because they pitched it as "for five dollars we will make everyone look at your post whether they like it or not" and it did so well that people actually started buying the premium subscriptions because we all collectively agreed that we HAVE to financially support a website that lets you pay to annoy strangers

Just an entire ecosystem built around new and novel ways to bother other people. I'm never ever leaving

Tumblr launching its blue checkmark thing while twitter’s blue checkmark thing is burning out of control demonstrates superb comedic timing. My god I want to kiss every single one of @staff​ on the forehead for this.
