An absolutely stunning commission from the incredibly talented @pauvre-lola of my OCs Pat and Lenny in a Pirates AU (because pirates rule and we all know it)! Thank you so much again for drawing my boys so beautifully!! 💛💙
youre telling me a ham fisted this metaphor??
people say folks with adhd struggle with "delayed rewards" aka long term goals and as such we tend to focus more on short term rewards. what they don't talk about is that at when we Do accomplish long term goals we don't actually feel anything proportionate to the amount of work we did to achieve it. In my head I suffered for a while and then money spontaneously appeared in my bank account.
"Don't you feel satisfied that your windows are so clean now?" It sucked and it sucked and now I don't care. I just remember the sucking.
Eurovision 2024 be like
new tag game: people who don’t have anime profile pics, if you had to pick one rn what would it be
"Networking is how you get a good job" I am killing myself dawg
"There's a short list of things you have to do to get a job"
"Is it nepotism?"
"What?"
*explains the nuances of cronyism in society and its basis in cisheteropatriarchical concepts like primogeniture that (while we pretend that this concept passed with the divine right of kings) still control nearly every aspect of our lives in some way.*
"Ma'am, it's just networking and meritocracy :)"
*gets home*
*opens the networking and meritocracy*
*it's nepotism*
There is absolutely nothing you could make up about American politics. Imagination is dead. It's useless.
Got to see aurora borealis :33
EBU can disqualify a country (in this case, Joost and the Netherlands) over allegations, but Israel who is committing mass murder and that is an actual fact is still qualified for Eurovision, because Eurovision isn't political.
Guess what? Stating that you aren't being political, is political.
boycotting eurovision is not simply about israeli participation. you have to understand that, the presenting sponsor of eurovision is moroccan oil, an israeli brand. israel’s money is all over eurovision. i keep seeing people hoping for israel to be banned from participating, but lbr it’s never going to happen. i’ve seen people post evidence of israel having paid advertising telling people to vote for them etc. the whole show is israeli propaganda and i am begging you not to watch it and to keep your eyes on gaza tonight, keep your eyes on rafah
LITERALLY THEM
cd has a hole. record has a hole. casette has 2 holes. streaming? zero holes. i think i’ve made my point
Translation: What a shitshow. This years Eurovision has gone to hell. And it's first and foremost the EBU's fault.
Also, excerpt from the same article:
Throughout the course of the Eurovision Song Contest, the EBU has acted as if they live in a parallel universe. Eurovision is one thing, the world outside something else. The EBU has stuck its head in the sand. Shoved the problem under the rug. Held their hands over their ears and shouted LALALALALA. They appear to have done everything they can to pretend it's possible to hold an apolitical event in a world that's on fire. We have come together to be "united by music", they say, but the sharpshooters on Malmö's rooftops have nothing to do with us! In its struggle to remain apolitical, the EBU has become like a small fascist state in itself, where the artists' space for expression and action has been reduced as much as the undergarments of the Spanish dancers. It is reprehensible.
Reminder again to BOYCOTT EUROVISION 🇵🇸
Don't watch, don't vote.
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?
Saw a sharp increase in my follower count after posting this. The legitimacy of it is driving me nuts so I also feel the need to say that you can follow anyone on here regardless of whether you’ve interacted with them or not. People like the above mentioned blog are exceptions. Perhaps they themselves think they aren’t and therefore will act like they aren’t, but they are, trust me.
Just follow anyone you wanna follow. The worst thing that can happen is maybe getting soft-blocked by the other person, but if they do soft-block you, then they were never that worth following in the first place.
wow. really hope this isn't actually a norm taking hold with new users! this isn't facebook, you don't need to know people before following them
this is the '10 year mutuals you've never spoken to once' site
