#not all boomers are bad

[spaceumbredoggos]

Conservative Boomers need to fuck off. I’m not saying Yes Sir or No Sir or Yes Ma’am or No Ma’am. Had enough of that bullshit from my dad and his dad. And what if they’re not a sir or a ma’am? What if they’re like me? That’s fuggin traumatizing when little would say yes ma’am to you when you’re not a ma’am or a sir. What’s wrong with Yep, Yeah, Yes, Yee, Sure, Affirmative, Yeppers, Non’t, or just nodding your head if you don’t feel like verbalizing your agreement? And while we’re at it, what’s with the whole eye contact shit? You’re starin’ into my fuggin soul. It creeps me out.

I will never fear undocumented immigrants anywhere near as much as I fear Republican law makers. And that is something that will never change.

(cw again for some dog poop talk lol) i talked to boomer's vet again today, she doesn't know why he's having trouble holding his poop after the surgery. she said it's very unusual esp since the surgery wasn't anywhere near his butt. nothing we can really do but wait for the incision to heal enough to remove his stitches. she also isn't sure why he's sooooooo distressed. she was surprised to hear how anxious he is, even with the pain meds and sedatives. the incision is healing beautifully and i don't think he's actually in much pain. he's maybe just (in her words) "extra sensitive" lol. boomer officially diagnosed Sensitive Snowflake Poo-Poo Cry Guy by the doctor

basically every single character on the dsmp follows campbell's monomyth and can be placed in the hero's journey with very few exceptions which means that every character is the main character.

Girl, help, the book authors are trying too hard to be "hip" with the fleeting "teen lingo" and trends again, immediately dating their works before they're even released

In a terrible world, any little thing can make you love life again. But any little thing can equally make you want to murder somebody.

Mmm actually I think we do owe love and care to our loved ones! We do owe each other things sometimes! There is a duty of care in our relationships that we should do our very best to uphold. It's the basis for human connection? An informal agreement we have with someone dear to us that we will support and cherish them and not just when it's easy and in the ways that feel effortless to us but also in the ways that they feel most loved.

We owe each other consideration. We owe each other a chance to chime in on important things and we should not make unilateral decisions. We owe each other reassurance sometimes too! Gasp!

I know that we're unlearning our generational trauma collectively but what's the point if we draw such hard boundaries around ourselves that nobody is let in, and nobody is helped, loved or considered when they really need it?

What is the point of being connected to another human being if it's understood between the two of you that if shit hits the fan, they are loyal only to themselves and you can get fucked?

I get it. We need to be self-sufficient. We can't rely on someone to the point of falling apart when they leave the house. But entering into a relationship or close friendship (or nurturing our existing familial relationships that are healthy) is a declaration that we CAN but don't WANT to be 100% self-sufficient anymore. We'd like to outsource a portion of our bandwidth to the other person. And in exchange, we take on some of theirs. It can't be rainbows all the time: again, most of us are traumatized by our parents in some way. We have behaviours that make us unpleasant sometimes! But why does that necessarily mean that we cut each other off when we show symptoms? When we actually need to cash in on some support the most? Where pray tell lies the nuance between "cut off abusive people who have no intention of changing" and "sometimes our loved ones can act ugly on the road to healing, but as long as they commit to bettering themselves I will see them through it"???? Does the latter not exist at all?

The act of caring and being cared for is one of the only fucking things we have left that can sustain our hearts in this bleak world. If you don't want to be burdened with the expectation of reciprocation in your relationships then what is the point of seeking connection? You are missing a fundamental fucking variable.

it was heartbreaking to learn yesterday that my dad’s doctor put him on ozempic… girl you’re supposed to be fat 💔

It’s so hard engaging with the English-speaking fandom sometimes because people are so comfortable with expressing negativity unprompted. You’re not supposed to be rude to someone over something that’s not real. Your words are being heard by real, living people, BE POLITE.

Me going "he would not fucking say that" at G1 fics that write Optimus as some sort of socially conscious leftist politically aware activist bc G1 Orion Pax literally did not have a political thought in his brain and his almost exact reaction to hearing about a war on the way was "there are bots whose job it is to deal with that, who cares" and his reaction to seeing Megatron was like "wow cool war machine!" almost exactly like that one Gundam missing the point meme.

[viccaon]

So! I decided to do a life sized cutout of my beloved malewife, he takes up almost WHOLE DAMN WALL but i don't regret it at all, i love him so much

i just want to kiss him and hold his hands, even tho they are 2,5 times bigger than mine

Glass child on the internet: “I have experienced profound emotional neglect throughout my childhood due to the pressure and unmet emotional and sometimes physical needs forced upon me since my parents were very busy taking care of my disabled sibling. Thus leaving me with severe emotional scars that I deal with to this day and it’s very invalidating and triggering when people don’t listen to my perspective or understand the gravity of my situation.”

People who put “neurodivergent” in their bio and self diagnosed with seven different disorders: “IT’S NOT THE SIBLINGS FAULT!!!!!!”

Glass child: “I never said it was—”

People who think they have autism because they are very interested in something and sometimes get overwhelmed: “Oh, so you’re ableist? You should probably just kill yourself. No, you definitely should kill yourself. Like, actually do that. Stop crying because mommy and daddy didn’t pay attention to you. Yeah, you’re a lost cause. Kill yourself pls”

send me good vibes that the boomers aren't as heinous at work today as they were yesterday

I think what I love most about them using the vocal effect for STT is it shows experimentation and growth. It’s still very clearly GVF but it’s also a little bit different and ultimately you want artists to have growth and try new things throughout their career. If they just did the same thing every time it wouldn’t be as exciting (I know I know, these boys could read through the phone book and we’d all eat it up but you know what I mean). So what’s cool about this is that people can listen to STT and they’ll know “oh, this is Greta van Fleet”, but then they’ll hear the vocal effect and also go “This is Greta Van Fleet?” and it’s just a subtle way of them showing growth and experimentation but also staying true to who they are as artists. Because STT without the vocal effect? A good song, no doubt. But the vocal effect just adds so much more nuance and depth and aesthetic to it making it a great song.
