I’m just so *tired* of :gestures vaguely at everything:

So we all know that Tumblr is US-centric. But to what degree? (and can we skew the results of this poll by posting it at a time where they should be asleep?)

Reblog to increase sample size!

*sighs* this was so beautiful when the percentages were 20% : 80%...

Good morning to EDT and CDT, and to the early birds in the mountains

your honor my client should be at the club

i know what you’re thinking. ‘thank god this tumblr user isn’t an actual licensed attorney’. well bad news kids

I especially love these two excerpts from her wiki page

I tell kids about Tilly ALL THE TIME when I'm doing tsunami presentations for my job. She lived in a landlocked part of England! She probably thought she would never ever ever use what she learned in her geography class about tsunamis and then just a few weeks later she used it to save over one hundred lives! It's an incredible story about how anything can happen anytime, and we need to be prepared to act.

What I think is most important about her story is that, even as a kid, Tilly knew she was right and she stuck to that knowledge. She practically threw a fit until her parents listened to her, because at first they kept brushing her off. And that is SO IMPORTANT for our kids to know! Adults can be wrong. You need to trust your instincts. YOU can be right and YOU can act in times of danger and emergency. YOU have the power to save yourself and others.

this is a total normal thing for ANOTHER COUNTRY'S foreign intelligence agency front to say to American university students who are peacefully demonstrating against the genocide and oppression of Palestinians

Trump would be such a good drag queen like just such an unbelievably incredible and talented drag queen it's such a bummer that he's decided to be a fascist and a threat to democracy because that cunt would devour at the House of Yes

such a loss

his cadence, his tiny bitchy hand gestures, his cunty little nicknames for people that are insane but also somehow stick to your brain? 

“the problem with ron desanctimonious is that he needs a personality transplant, and those are...... noT yet available.”

if he’d laid the garbage fire of his entire soul aside for a wig and heels back in the 80s, we’d live in a better world.

#girl… put 2 and 2 together

this video is really fucking good. fuck big tech companies, fast fashion, modern auto, and those initial inhibitive greedy lightbulb fucks. planned obsolescence, creative waste, consumer engineering. 

Amber Heard on her birthday April 22, 2024 🎂

Some Amber Heard supporters have organised a gfm for the Panzi Foundation in Amber’s name as a birthday present to her. The Panzi Foundation works to help and support victims of sexual violence in the DRC. Here’s a link to the foundation’s website if you want to learn more.

Today’s Amber’s birthday! Donate if you want to we’re so close to the goal!

my name is jamie

hi jamie!!! ^_^

Hi jamie

It’s practically 2014 and you guys still don’t know how to google if an article is real or not before giving it 100,000 notes

So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said “don’t follow me if we never even had a conversation before” and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????

I’ve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now I’m wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that it’s totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if we’ve never talked before.

Also, I’m legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like it’s common sense but is that really a thing?

I saw someone leave a reply saying something along the lines of "people are allowed to set whatever personal boundaries they want." And while that is true, I think people on tumblr are very confused over what constitutes a boundary.

This is a boundary:

This is NOT a boundary:

That's just a demand.

A demand is not a boundary.

A boundary is a parameter. It tells you "If [x] then [y]." I tells you what the results are for a particular action. A boundary establishes CONSEQUENCES, and those consequences have to be enforced by the person setting the boundary. Strangers cannot be expected to enforce your personal boundaries for you. That's your job.

the humble "like" is oft mocked despite what it does for us. "like, three people" is a vastly different statement from "three people". "and i was like 'what the fuck'" is vastly different from "and i said 'what the fuck'". i love you "like" and anyone who says you make people sound stupid will be killed on sight
