"Why are you still on tumblr, it's a dead site" Tumblr is the ONLY site that still works in the way of -Follow this person, see their posts- instead of -you stopped scrolling and stayed on this post for .2 seconds longer than others, here's 100 more posts like it- I hate algorithms. Tumblr has its many issues. But at least I keep my choice of what I see.

Io capisco la voglia di mettere le mani avanti. Capisco le insicurezze. Capisco chi non si sente all'altezza. Capisco la scarsa autostima. Capisco chi dice "non aspettarti troppo da me" per il timore di deludere tutti. Ma tu, 2025, con questi segnali stai esagerando, dico davvero...

Anyway if you see this you have to reblog and tag with a delight from ur day -- even the littlest thing counts

I am not meant to be there. I am meant to live in an island, selling colorful trinkets to tourist, reading my book, enjoying late night walk with my family, walking by the seaside. And to think that I lived like that.

I am incapable of being objective about that because I love this show, it's the only thing that keep me afloat during my depressive episodes, so I'll be partial about it.

There are many reason why I love this show this much: first of all for the dark humor that is the foundation of the whole show: subtle, unexpected, unsettling, compelling. But it's not the only thing that keeps me glued to the headphones, the main one is definitely the METAPHORS. What an old word, what an obsolete concept: is there really this need to speak in hyperboles in 2024? Absolutely. Because when I hear about a town where it's normal for everyone to have collective hallucinations but you have to believe what the government says, I feel free. That the real enemy of society is not the horrible creatures that infest it, or the faceless woman who lives in your house, but a multinational that believes in a god who always smiles and wants you to work until you die, I even feel full of hope. Because sometimes you have to invent new words to read life and interpret it under a distorted lens to understand it, to accept that we live a crazy and collective experience with no meaning other than what we give it, and that's beautiful.

You know the economy is in shambles when you're still thinking about that section of the last Night Vale episode that offered a deal of a house at the cost of two of your toes (that couldn't be the small ones). Like I legit went "what a good deal".

They so know that, considering the kind of irony Night Vale is always playing with, but it pains me to my very soul.

Va bene, elaboro in italiano perché voglio dire cose che in inglese non so nemmeno da che parte cominciare.

Allora: partiamo dal presupposto che sono di parte perché questo podcast mi salva letteralmente la vita durante i miei episodi depressivi. Perché? Ci ho pensato.

Prima di tutto per il dark humor che è la base fondante di tutto lo show: sottile, imprevisto, spiazzante, avvincente. Ma non è l'unica cosa che mi inchioda alle cuffiette, la principale sicuramente sono le METAFORE. Che parola antica, che concetto obsoleto: ancora nel 2024 c'è davvero tutto questo bisogno di parlare per iperboli? Assolutamente si. Perché quando sento di una cittadina in cui è normale che tutti abbiano allucinazioni collettive ma bisogna credere a quello che dice il governo, mi sento libera. Che il vero nemico della società non sono le orride creature che la infestano, o la donna senza volto che vive nella tua casa, ma una multinazionale che crede in un dio che sorride sempre e che vuole che tu lavori fino a morirne, mi sento perfino piena di speranza. Perché a volte bisogna inventare nuove parole per leggere la vita e interpretarla sotto una lente distorta per capirla, per accettare che viviamo un'esperienza folle e collettiva senza nessun significato se non quello che le diamo, ed è bellissimo.

Non aver paura del giudizio degli altri. L'etica del lavoro è un concetto stravolto dai padroni per spremerti, e "il lavoro vi renderà liberi" un orribile motto da campi di concentramento. Ogni tanto bisogna tenersi il mal di pancia e non dormire, ma fare la cosa giusta. Che ne succedono davvero troppe di schifezze tutti i giorni, e a chinare il capo ogni volta si perde sempre.

Please don’t pay for his music.

I know, I know, gatekeeping the outdoors, that's supposedly bad, right, but I think if you show up to do a hike and you brought a portable speaker with you to play music while you hike, I think, like hear me out, there should be a gate, and someone at the gate should keep you from doing the hike.

i may not be beautiful but at least i know a lot of useless information

anybody else feel that being human is like being a long-time syndicated cartoon character watching the world get more complex while your own design stays the same until youre incongruous with the reality around you??
