It's fascinating how in reaction to the crab day idea half my dashboard is like "Tumblr is awful do not give them one red cent let the motherfucker burn" and the other half is like "let's save the rec center 🙂"

#do crab day dont do crab day #itll be a nice boost to the site but like its been pointed out it wont completely solve tumblr's money woes #but also it is $3 for crabs #like... no one's asking you to drop big bucks on this #hell you can just say no #this is like how every year ao3 does their fundraiser and people come on to scream about how its a waste of money #and how you should be giving it to someone more worthy #as if those donation posts arent passing the same $5 around to get by #or when the importan blue checks came out #people spending $3 on crabs would probably spend that $3 on something equally dumb or not at all #sorry #just dont participate #and make plans to lift stakes when tumblr finally goes under/starts really sucking b/c theyre gonna keep doing shit like this #until they go under or turn a profit #thats capitalism #and even if we get our glorious communist revolution social media will probably not make it to the communes #locked it down since crab day originator found it and well its out that theyre a pro-life terf so 🤷 blocked #anyway congrats on reblogging a godless heathen #your idea was cute anyway #update: i had an idea and now its rebloggable again #fyi: i block hard 🙃

why do 'evil' and 'mean' versions of fictional characters usually wear dark clothing with piercings and some sort of goth punk aesthetic. all the mean people i've met have high lights and wear y2k clothes from shein

#/unserious #this is not a bash on any particular style btw #i also had a rant about hyper consumerism and ethics under capitalism thats semi related to this but that will be saved for a stream later

Let us be brutally honest with ourselves and with eachother for a moment. If he weren't obese you motherfuckers would be capable of percieving evrart claires sexy sexy moral ambiguity and complex charms

#i am (lesbian) sipping him like a fine DESSERT WINE #my evidence by the way is very simple and very damning. joyce messier. there i said it.#if you guys can appreciate the fact that Joyce is a complex figure worthy of disgust yes but also worthy of empathy #despite being a venal coward facilitating acts of violence and slaughter of the organized working poor of martinaise in the name of capital #if you can understand that she is a dimensional figure while also being an embodiment of the moral apathy and cruelty if capital owners #but you cant look at evrart and see that he is (while deeply flawed and morally suspect) also a dimensional figure #on top of the fact that his motivations are eminently relatable and dare i say it baser #and his greatest failing imho is in failing to advocate for the interests of *all* the poor of martinaise #opting instead to marginalize the inhabitants of the fishing village in favor of a power grab in the interests of himself and his union #though this is imo a bit of a grey area morally. undeniably a wrong and bad thing to do but done in service of clairs political goals #to gather power to advocate for the working class against ultraliberal monoliths like wild pines and fascistic orgs like krenel #still super wrong but i can follow the moral arithmetic there tho i don't like it #but like my point is if u can see that joyce is evil and pathetic but still cool and sexy but you consider clair flatly distasteful #thats cus hes not conventionally attractive #cus he is *every bit* as dimensional and interesting as joyce and he is not nearly as politically shite even if hes interpersonally a jerk

People that say "oh water foesnt have a taste!! any water is good" are fools that unknowingly prove they just cant Taste Good water. A good filtered water is the most refreshing thing on earth. Fill a water bottle with water from one of those sip fountains and take a drink and experience Bad Water. There is Good And Bad Water take my fucking word for it and appreciate that you didnt have circumstanves where you didnt have clean water to drink

#inanegargling #obviously this can be extended to discussions about capitalisms effects on clean water in communities (ex flint michigan)#but thats beyond the scope of this post.

i'm finally reading moby dick and there's a lot i didn't know about it such as that the first several dozen chapters are very funny! to me ol Call Me Ishmael has a kind of "what if bertie wooster were 1. american 2. competent" narrative vibe, although admittedly i am what one professor once called an "idiosyncratic" reader, meaning u should not trust anything i say. anyway the book i THOUGHT "moby dick" was going to be doesn't start until captain ahab finally stumps upstairs in chapter 36 and then boy does it ever, because he has I Am In A Tragedy disease and it is contagious and now everyone who was normal two pages ago is monologuing ominously in the dead of night. did you guys know herman melville is a very good writer? have you heard about this? he really knows that if you encounter someone who has you doing soliloquies you should Leave. if you encounter that person while you are on a boat in the middle of the 19th century ocean you are fucked for sure. poor starbuck is out here like "i really would prefer to be in a story about doing my Fucking Job"

#call me ishmael. urban capitalism has made me insane but its fine actually. some people? court death?? to cope???#also a whale is a fUCKING FISH science eat my ASs.#<--thats my impression of the narrator of herman melville's Moby-Dick Or The Whale (1851)#books

#this is the sort of behavior thats gonna land you on desperate acts of capitalism pod one day

Yeah applying for jobs feels dehumanizing. Yeah society is crumbling. Yeah we are all oppressed by the ruling one percenters. Yeah the world is full of cruelty. But you Cannot Stop Me from baking fucking bread with my Beloved Friends. And you can't stop me from drawing flowers. And you can't stop me from moving worms out of the sun back into the dirt in the shade. And you can't stop me from asking for help even when my past experiences have tried to convince me to never do so again. I am STUBBORN and I will CONTINUE LOVING

#FUCK capitalism #anti capitalism #hopepunk #hopecore #lovecore #🎶love more hate less thats the anthem🎶#punk #optimism #the power of friendship #i am tagging that unironically YOU CANT STOP ME #job search #job searching #suffering........core #healing #cptsd recovery #trauma recovery
