I don't get the "Oh don't you dare give me 10k notes" posts. They feel very performative to me.

I'm an attention slut and I love shitshows. Reblog this post so that it can get 100k notes and I can bask in its glory

i’m obsessed with the mum from ponyo. driving single lane on a cliff edge? drift those turns in your nissan cube. husband has to work an extra shift? tell him to fuck off in morse code. pet fish turned into a child on your driveway? adopt her. town drowned in a tsunami? leave your 5 year old in charge, he’s the man of the house now

ideal woman to me and i am not kidding

SHE SHOULD BE AT THE CLUB

I don’t think the club could handle her

This is a close up? A CLOSE UP YA JERK! A CLOSEUP!

Alright, let’s get this picture started! (The End) NO NOOOOO!

One of the defining moments of animation history.

“Ain’t I a stinker?”

In Babylon 5, didn’t one of the non-humans think Daffy was the god of frustration?

Holy shit, this is nearly 70 years old. This would have been right on the heels of color television being commercially available to the public.

@amayatepes look at this

LMAO

Huh. That’s just a whole ass Daffy Duck cartoon.

Everything about this cartoon is top-notch. The timing, the animation (watch Daffy’s different walks) the art; this is a treasure

The Goncharov meme has exposed several really interesting things:

1) It highlights tumblr as actual social media based in community effort rather than status

2) It shows what tumblr as a whole values in media (in particular, queer representation, strong relationships between characters, emotional catharsis, and dichotomy of themes such as spending one's life building a legacy versus just living life)

3) Tumblr humor is based primarily in improv "yes and-ing" and commitment to the bit, and people will put 200% effort into pushing the bit even further if the bit keeps being fun

4) More than anything, people want to entertain each other, and being in a community that values entertaining others leads to incredible collaborative works of creativity that don't even feel like work to make

Anyways, calling shoplifting “urban foraging” is very funny, a useful euphemism, should be done more often.

Wow.

You should really listen to the WHOLE thing because this woman does not mince words

the 2 bits that most stuck out to me:

republican laws that make exception for the life of the mother have a caveat: abortion can be given to save the life of the mother unless the risk to the mother is that she's suicidal. (that is: republicans already know that being forced to remain pregnant can make people become suicidal, and they dont care)

and

the only reason to force pregnant people to act as walking coffins (when republicans force people to carry nonviable pregnancies to term) is to reinforce the idea that a woman's job is to be pregnant.

(paraphrased slightly for clarity)

do you think palaeolithic and neolithic people ever buried each other in sand on the beach for fun…

I think they played pranks on each other. I think they tapped each other on the opposite shoulder from behind then pretended not to have done it. I think they invented pull my finger

You know they never had to see or hear any advertisements at all in their lives? Not one! But I bet they DID pull funny faces at each other behind someone else’s back to try to make them laugh

I’m thinking about them tickling each other and laughing til they snort and cry. Our friends the ancestors…

On This Day 12,000 years ago one of our friends gave another friend a piggyback across a river. And someone hogged all the pelts in the cave at night in their sleep and someone else twitched while getting tattooed and now their elk looks really wonky and silly
