The American far-right: (((They))) built space lasers and hurricane machines to create natural disasters in the United States!

The American far-left: A country the size of New Jersey is single-handedly accelerating climate change to create natural disasters in the United States!

You guys sound exactly the same

when people complain about getting like, a 98% grade on something because it was "so close to perfect" its like. i understand what you're saying on a technical level. but that is a line of thought so far away from my experiences and ways of thinking that i do feel like im from another planet. 100% isnt even a real number to me

[istherewifiinhell]

my boss did ask me if id been 'following the hurricane' and i realllllly didnt know what kind of response to give cause im like. if u make me think about climate disasters and political nature of civil engineering i just wont stop. so i said 'oh there was one just a while ago too'

Recently I have found two different variations of audio overstimulation directly from qsmp that I have voluntarily subjected myself to for better or worse:

the chaos of the mission/etoiles dungeons with all the powerful mobs, loud suits of armor, sounds of damage being dealt, and screams of panicking players (moderately bad kind of overwhelmed, can't think, have to mute the streams every so often during to recover a bit despite enjoying watching anyways)

dorime layered several times over itself that Foolish and several eggs pole-danced to in cinematic fashion (still can't think, but it sounds good, and have actively brought up several duplicate tabs of the song to discordantly echo through my brain)

So I ended up watching some B.lack B.utler today to try to get my mind off of things and well, this quote from S.ebastian really stuck with me

S.ebastian: "I'm not especially fond of dogs...to be completely frank I HATE them..."

Why am I bringing this up?

Because Wendy's family has a dog.

and Lord help him if Wendy were to show him or have him meet Nana, who is not only a DOG (a Saint Bernard mind you, one of the biggest dog breeds) but also finding out that she's a NURSEMAID for the children as well.

I just saw ANOTHER post lamenting this change, so I'm just gonna say "fuck it" and make a how to do the thing post, and if I'm misunderstanding the outrage... lol, this is tumblr, I'm sure someone will tell me.

Currently, if you want to go to a post in the middle of a reblog thread, you have to click the empty space in what I call the reblog header. The reblog header is the space that holds a user's name and reblog details, and on desktop, it turns a different color when you move your cursor over it. It's this space:

It doesn't change colors on mobile, obviously, because no cursor, but I think tapping is a little more intuitive on mobile anyway and afaik this particular thing has been this way here for a while now...? Whatever. Anyway, that's how you get to a mid-thread reblog!

(I actually do kinda like this new setup. It's not perfect, it can be annoying if someone's URL is long or if I accidentally click "Follow" instead of the header space. But overall, the space to click into a prior reblog is bigger now and I like that. I don't think I'll have to worry as much about mouse precision or drowsy coordination issues, which is nice. Maybe I'll be able to use the desktop version more.)

However, this means that in order to see "prev tags," you apparently have to click into the notes view and scroll until you find them. That's annoying for those who want to see them, and I can't blame anyone for being irritated. If you're new here you may be surprised to learn "prev tags" is fairly recent, so my recommendation (if you're looking for an alternative) is to put the actual tags from the user you're reblogging from, instead. This was normal prior to the "prev tags" trend if you wanted to share tags without screenshotting them, and it seems like tumblr has made it super easy now. The mobile app now automatically suggests the previous tags, and on desktop, they show up in a dropdown when you click to tag your post. Personally, I like to put "<-borrowing your tags bc funny" or "<-stole your tags for truth" or something right after, so I don't feel like I'm taking credit for someone else's phrasing. But either way, it's handy for your followers to be able to read the tags you liked without having to click to a different blog.

I'm hoping this particular change will be seen as useful after the rocky adjustment period is over.

All this being said, I personally like these particular changes, but I wish Tumblr would not roll out changes as rapidly as they seem to be recently. Either change everything at the same time or give it a rest, holy shlamoly! I stopped using Facebook because it seemed like every time I opened it, something was different, and it became jarring and uncomfortable to try to use. I'm starting to have a similar feeling about tumblr, and I don't like it.

mm. man. now i'm sad i don't ~like math anymore. not that i know for sure that i ever did, but i miss not flinching from it. i was scared of a lot of things in first year! but the doing of math wasn't really one of them. and it's still like. i'm not uniquely bad at it or anything, but sometimes i'm a little jealous of people who get the... mechanics of it. or have the creativity for it. the... ability / willingness / desire to think through a difficult proof or problem and enjoy that process. my dad told me once that he thinks everyone should learn math because math is beautiful. most of the time i am willing to let that statement stand, just accept that i basically get it but am never going to love it like he does, but sometimes. i wish this was still fun to me. i wish hearing about a new math concept wasn't so closely associated in my brain with feeling terrified and alone.

it would be really cool if I could have a day this month where I wasn’t so chronically afraid it felt like my intestines were twisted into a möbius strip. Because ya’know- I really like my digestive tract being an orientable manifold. If that’s all the same to the universe.

[alaskan-wallflower]

found out the reason i wasn’t put in accelerated math was because in sixth grade my math teacher didn’t think i could do it because of my visual impairment 💪
