#people on TikTok are dumb

“Hey Ithica was so close why did they go so far” there was a storm!! That blew all the Trojans off course!! Menelaus ended up in Egypt for a few years!! “Oh but Odysseus hadn’t fought Polyphemus yet” Poseidon gets pissy at people a lot!! There was more than one storm!! Achilles killed one of his sons he’s famously not chill with that!! “Oh but Poseidon said he was being chill before in ruthlessness” He did not say he was being chill before he said he tries to chill with the waves he is rarely successful!! Epic is an adaptation there’s going to be some differences!! Please do one fucking Google search before being a dumbass online!!!

“It would’ve been shorter to just walk”

IM GOING TO COMMIT ARSON-

A paparazzi video goes up online from some Hollywood party. The video is taken from a distance but you can clearly make out Steve when he steps outside to sober up a bit in the cool air.

It’s very clear by the way that he’s moving that he’s a little drunk when he finds a bench to sit down. He takes his glasses off and rubs at his eyes.

Less than a minute later, Eddie wanders outside looking for his husband and finds him. You can see Eddie slide up close to Steve on the bench and put his arm around him.

The video is from too far away to hear what Eddie leans in close to say, but you can clearly see that Steve responds with “sorry, man, I’m married” by the way he gestures to his wedding ring when waving him off.

Eddie says something and Steve blinks at him. He looks surprised for a second and then starts laughing. Eddie laughs too and is still laughing when Steve pulls him in for a kiss.

my pet peeve this morning is how everyone on tiktok is treated as an influencer or an influencer in making for even the most simple of videos. like on a video of someone accidentally scaring their friend someone in the comments will be like "we HAVE to see the best friend now 🤣" no tf you dont? you don't HAVE to see anything. it's a funny video and now it's over. there's always this entitlement to "another video please!!!! another another!!!" and it'll be on someone's page that isn't trying to be entertaining for billions of people

I do think the dumbest, most egregious overstatement of harm in fandom spaces is acting like someone is doing an active act of modern colonization because they ship two characters from a 2000s animated Nickelodeon show

people hate teenage girls so much that i can literally say "teruhashi is conceited, fake, judgemental, and manipulative, but she has incentive to change and is only that way because of how shes been treated her whole life" and theyll still go "wow are you justifying the horrible things she thinks? youre acting like shes a perfect, hurt little angel who did nothing wrong"

PLEASE READ !!! GENUINELY BEGGING YOU TO LEARN TO READ !!!

im watching a retrospective about Majora's Masks dungeon progression and realizing a little more every time he says "this game took a lot of very brave steps out to not be ocarina of time" that my disappointment with totk isn't out of place. I've been told "it's breath of the wild 2, why did you expect it to be different?" but like.. it's it's own game. why is it the exact same but with an arguably worse iteration of the story?

Man I hate being able to read

One of my favourite niches within shows and fandom spaces is when a character is allowed to be silly and goofy. Like when a character is introduced and they’re stoic, cool and always know what to say in a very charismatic way and then through the serious they become to be a little bit silly

Okay so this is really bugging me because people on Tiktok seem to not know what Gothic Architecture is for some reason and keep arguing about it and not admitting their wrong so...

Gothic Architecture:

Gothic Architecture is very old, some examples being from the 1200s to the 1600s. Some examples are Cologne Cathedral, Canterbury Cathedral, and lots of other Cathedrals in Europe.

And NO it does not have anything to do with the modern goths and stuff, it's an architecture style. Which confuses people for some reason.

And no, for some reason people think just because its a church or cathedral means it isn't Gothic Architecture when ALMOST ALL Gothic Architecture examples ARE Cathedrals and religious buildings. It's a building style, just because its a religious building doesn't suddenly mean it's not Gothic Architecture.

I love Gothic Architecture and some people are very uneducated and like to speak on things they don't know about even if it can take only a single Google search to prove them wrong. Please educate yourselves on something as simple as architecture before claiming some building isn't Gothic. Thanks

If you'd like to add something onto this post or correct me on anything, feel free :))

Another side of how dumb people starting and fueling the online dramas clearly forgot how humans work is complete unawareness about how human brain works. It isn't JUST the fact that they're always so goddamn shocked that people can make mistakes all of their lives and think they exposed some huge evil!

But whenever a very strong backlash launches at a person and they hear all kinds of damning accusations of -isms and -phobias, obviously their brain will stop functioning normally from raw panic! Biologically it will prioritize own "survival" rather than some intricacies about politics and/or humanities. So NATURALLY in this state an apology will be super clumsy and poor, or they might start to defend themselves, or attack back, or simply run away. tAkInG AcCoUnTaBiLiTy uwu is very far from their current priority when they have to worry about their career if not life ruined in literal days! (Let's not even dive into the topic of how almost never any of the dumb shit they said online in ignorance actually harmed anyone, witch-hunters just like to play victims because it gives them power over other people's fates)

"But in that case why won't they simply step away from the internet so they can calm down first and come up with a good and responsive reaction? 🥺" Wow! This is a really good idea! :) It sounds like a very rational choice, doesn't it? :))) Would not that be just great if a brain under panic was able to come up with a rational solutions on the fly? :)))) Especially great if online dramas stopped spreading THIS fast, so every minute of "just stepping away to think" didn't feel like putting oneself into even MORE danger? :)))))))

Fucking pricks, all of these people. "Good intentions lead to hell" but the ones in hell are victims of their witch-hunting, not the culprits.
