i hate when rich people condescend with the whole 'money can't buy happiness' argument like listen. just because buying your fourth car didn't fill the void in your deluded disconnected-from-reality life doesn't mean not having to worry about food/ bills/medicine wouldn't greatly improve the mental health of literally everyone else on the planet

I'm hoping this anti-porn movement gets rolled back, but if we have to settle in for the long haul, Tumblr is actually very well-situated for it, not just because we had our porn apocalypse ages ago but because this site is full of people who are horny but don't actually have sex, and fully sublimate their sexuality into unrecognizable abstractions and symbolism

it's been one year of horrifying genocide, on top of over seven decades of occupation and violence. please donate to palestinian families to help them survive. if you don't know where to look, or are anxious about making a choice about who to help, head to gazafunds.com. please do what you can to help.

The Mountain Goats have a lot of sad songs, but the saddest is, by far, Shelved.

🎵Maybe dad is right I'm still young And I can write C++ just as good as anyone I know this guy at Lucasarts He says they're looking for hands🎵

Come on... the musician career may be difficult and random and lonely and not very profitable, but C++? really? Stick to playing bass, man.

Not to go "if you have ADHD just go for a run" or anything, but I am so serious if you have ADHD you should regularly go outside, no headphones no phone no nothing and just stand and observe for a while until you've had enough. Not until you get bored, until you've had enough. Drink your coffee without watching tiktok. Have a bath without music. Turn down the volume in your headphones. I cannot overstate how much learning to be bored is cruicial with ADHD. Life is not just about pleasure, no matter what your dysregulated dopamine system thinks, and when you teach your brain to be okay with being bored, then boring tasks stop feeling like torture. By letting yourself be bored you are yoinking your system out of the high/low binary and allow for the highs to feel like actual highs and not just anything that isn't low. I am so serious go literally touch grass. Listen to the sounds in your flat. Stimulate your body the way it was designed. It lowers anxiety and makes you feel like you're real and best of all it's completely free

I accidentally derailed a book discussion because the prof asked what we thought about it, and I said “at one point the author says ‘raccoons the size of huskies. which is a seriously big raccoon.”

and everyone started moving their arms to approximate the size of a husky and frowning. and I was like “because huskies are mostly leg, but raccoons are mostly body, so a raccoon scaled that large would be like a bear.” and then the prof said that he liked the ‘raccoons the size of huskies’ line, and tried to move on, and I interrupted again with “but that’s so big!”
