Since Tumblr is apparently intent on breaking my links in the description no matter what, I’m going to make myself a pinned post.

Everyone is nostalgic and no one is sincere. Do you get the idea

Reboots made by people that don’t respect what they’re rebooting. Punching down before buzz feed listicles punch first. Isn’t it weird that the princess married the prince after just meeting him? Isn’t it cringe that magic exists? Irony poisoning of childhood classics. Well that just happened humour. Say something true and beautiful or I will start throwing rocks

idk how to explain to people that it’s not internalized misogyny to expect women to do some of the work of unlearning patriarchal values. you can’t just wait for the patriarchy to topple before you begin questioning and pushing against those misogynistic ideas that have been fed to you since you were born because nothing changes if you DON’T question them. it’s extremely naive and unproductive to get mad at people for “calling out women instead of the patriarchy that made them think that :(“ when women have to actually begin critically engaging with what they’ve learned from the patriarchy to unlearn it. you aren’t a helpless victim who must contour and get lip injections and tell teenage girls to look hot for them until suddenly we have full equality and the patriarchy magically gets rid of itself. it just seems like some women don’t want to do the hard and messy work of having to critically engage with themselves and the self the patriarchy expects of them and it’s easier to just blame society and not get uncomfortable.

how do i sleep at night knowing charles martinet is a classically trained professional voice actor who stayed perfectly in-character during his original audition and performed til they ran out of recording tape and ad-libbed his lines for mtt to be kinder and more encouraging than his original script and treasures his mario voice very dearly and loves performing it and they gave him a bit cameo in a movie about the iconic beloved character he’s voiced for decades in favour of. chris pratt

no game has felt worth 60$ since games became 60$

The only games I felt were worth $60 cost like $19.99 and were made by three developers in a shed with GoFundMe money.

This is a good time to remind everyone to swap from Apple to Android the next time they have the means and need to get a new phone

Android phones are almost universally...

  • Cheaper
  • More durable
  • More customizable
  • Faster & more reliable
  • Less likely to remove perfectly workable features just because they are "old"
  • Better for pirating media

Y'all have got to stop enabling Apple's insistence on being a fashion brand rather than providing electronics that respect your autonomy and decision making powers.

Next time you have a choice in the matter, go Android. One minute of being able to actually browse your file architecture without jumping through proprietary bullshit and you'll be hooked, I promise.

JUST A HEADS UP TO Y'ALL CONTEMPLATING SWITCHING: DO YOUR RESEARCH ON WHAT ANDROID PHONE YOU WANT.

This is because there is a massive variety on Android phones, as Android is open-source - yes you heard me! Open source which means you can have a lot of power if the open-source-ness of the OS was kept - and it means there can be really shitty phones out there. A lot of "cheap" Androids are bottom-of-the-barrel stuff you really should keep away from, and some are so terrible it's a scam.

A massive tip from me, is to go look up reviews from reputable phone tech Youtubers. Misterwhosetheboss, Marques Brownlee, and similar have some fantastic reviews on phones, and I recommend Misterwhosetheboss highly. Both of them are incredibly informative, and with Arun's backlog, you can find everything from a low-tier, mid-tier, high-tier, or Extra-High-tier to fit you. Find a phone you think fits you, don't just switch blindly, and don't always take the most popular Android. 'Cos I can tell you, sometimes, a mid-tier phone can really challenge Samsung and whatever bs they have going on.

Basically, this is all to supplement OP's post, and apologies OP if I'm slightly obnoxious here. This is just kind of important to me, especially as I have contemplated making the jump myself. An Android can be wonderful, but choosing which fits you is such an important step. This is something your regular Apple user never thinks about; all most of us think about is if the phone is good, and if you want a fancier one, or if you care about the cameras. If we just suddenly jumped ship, we'd fall on our faces, or worse, shill out money to Samsung without thinking (ok jk but also serious because the bs with their flip phone pisses me off). Just, do your research and figure out what YOU want with your phone. Because Android unlocks a lot of doors to find YOUR special phone.

And maybe look up guides and how-tos when you make the switch, because some things may be the same, but others? Ho boy I've wanted to yeet a Lenovo pad into the wall from its absolute idiocy.

Anyway! Have fun! Screw Apple! Find the phone for you!

I sincerely hope that this post reached and convinced people to stop playing into Apple's game. If I convinced even 10% of the people in the notes (about 25,000 at the time of this reblog) to not get an iphone next upgrade, and if the avg. price of an iPhone is roughly $750, then I have personally cost Apple nearly 2 million dollars and this is one of my proudest achievements
