#they do the things they do online

[caladamn]

reading ur asks and answers you're so real . now give us your planymphia theory sister 🙏

IM SORRY i'm clinically insane about them. i can't speak those things in public, the world is not ready.

they (p+n) make me go through hell and back. especially the last few days (I'm looking at you, p).

and now with this nymphia interview I felt my bubble was bursting. but now these stories (!!!!) they are posting. I don't even know what to think anymore (I do know, but I don't know how to phrase it in a way that makes sense). so many thoughts. so many possibilities.

one thing is true for sure: they are more insane for each other than any of us could ever be or ever imagine.

and the thing is. it doesn't make sense (to me) that they're doing it just for clout. other dr ships have done it before and some still do it (collabing and/or interacting in suggesting ways), but we're all aware they're just friends irl (rosenali and dayasco the most recent examples).

the ship wasn't even born during the season, it was born AFTER. like, everything about them is an outlier from past dr ships. their relationship (friendship or more) is different. everyone can see it.

I'm just going to say that I'm a planymphia truther at heart. I'm not delusional, I'm just enlightened.

trans women are everywhere and are so eager to be seen and heard but only if they feel safe around you. if you hardly ever have trans women interacting with you, especially online, then consider there might be a reason for that and you should address it

I love Tumblr because nothing matters here truly. There are no influencers. Having followers doesn’t mean anything. It’s just a site where people post their sporadic thoughts and rb pretty pictures. Anyone who thinks any of this matters is woefully missing the point

Tumblr stop recommending me horny sapphic blogs that all say men dni in the pinned post, go back to sending me posts from the one that's just horny all the time please, I want the fat furries and the queer freaks that are way less respectably normal about me and my body.

Edit since a lot of people seem confused - your "real" name is the name that you want to be referred to in real life. It doesn't have to be your legal name. So if you're trans and you have a different name to whats on your birth certificate, even if not many people call you by the name, it still counts as your real name.

Edit 2 : Holy shit guys please stop reblogging this post my poor inbox im getting like 20 notifs an hour asjfhkajshdkh /lh /srs

re: that fucking staff post. obviously death to algorithms, but i also wanna interrogate the wider underlying assumptions of their logic there cuz. is 'success' having lots of followers & lots of popular posts??? why is that the end goal of using this website. i don't open tumblr to get attention from strangers, i open tumblr to read funny jokes and interesting commentary and to see cool art. encouraging clout-chasing will only increase user engagement if you successfully get people literally addicted to the associated dopamine hit. what if we didn't have to do that!!! what if a website could be a place you went to on purpose because you had fun there!!!!

Sure you could fall in love with me but would you put up glow in the dark stars all over our bedroom walls with me? Would you paint our mailbox fun colors with me? Would you make pancakes in silly shapes and buy knickknacks we’ll never use and pick up hobbies we won’t stick to with me? Would you live and be silly and be a little dumb and be a genius and be confident and lazy and kind and angry and everything? Would you give me absolutely every side of yourself that you can??

'tumblr is full of 14 year olds' wrong tumblr is full of 24 year olds who just don't do anything. and that's okay

"There should be security cameras inside of classrooms." Eh, sure. We have them in the hallways and cafeteria. Maybe not my first choice for how to spend tax dollars, but whatever. Then if an issue arises, the footage could be pulled on request and reviewed.

"There should be security cameras with a live stream inside classrooms that parents can view whenever they want to keep their kids safe." Are you insane. Are you absolutely out of your mind. Even assuming that this theoretical live stream would be limited to just the parents of children who have a class in that specific room (not the whole school)....you want dozens of strangers (in elementary) or hundreds of strangers (secondary) to be able to have a live stream of *your child* at school? You can't see a single possible safety or privacy issue that could arise from that situation?

Hot 4am take but I feel like if we want to get people more interested in making their yards a more habitable space for wildlife like insects, we have to acknowledge that ‘Don’t want bugs in your house’ is still a 100% fair and valid point of view. ‘Loves nature’ and ‘doesn’t want roaches spiders and mosquitoes in the house’ aren’t opposites.

And with that in mind, when we propose to people that spraying pesticides around houses is Not A Good Idea, Actually, I feel like we need to give an alternative asides from ‘deal with it.’

[ID: 8 sketches of scenes from The Murderbot Diaries where Murderbot expresses discomfort with being touched.

In the first, Done Abene takes a hold of Miki's shoulder. Murderbot, who is watching through Miki's eyes, falls off its perch and shouts "OH FUCK don't grab me".

In the second, Murderbot is standing awkwardly worried next to Mensah, just after she has been harassed by a journalist in the short story Home. It says, "You can hug me if you need to." Mensah replies "No, it's alright. I know it makes you uncomfortable" and Murderbot's face softens as it smiles.

In the third, Maro is hugging herself while looking at Murderbot and says "This is for you."

In the fourth, Murderbot thinks to itself while standing next to Mensah "If I kill this human... Mensah won't trust me anymore. She will not stand near enough to touch (without touching, ew).

In the fifth, Arada gazes up at Murderbot with a wobbly smile while Murderbot says "No hugging. It's in my contract. Do you need me to call someone for emotional support."

In the sixth, Murderbot holds a human up by the scruff of their uniform work jacket and says "Do not touch Security Consultant Rin."

In the seventh, Ratthi asks from offscreen "Do you have a relationship with this bot?" At Murderbot's disgruntled face, he says "Not like that."

In the eighth, Murderbot frowns sternly at Ratthi. Ratthi says "It was a sexual discussion." Murderbot instantly leaves, leaving behind a blank dotted outline while it hovers at pace away down the hall. End ID.]

Compilation video: Murderbot being touch averse for fifteen minutes aroace

Already on episode 8.

They really said trauma in flavor text.

Warning for Spoilers below

Can't wait for all the screenshots soon 😤

Interesting how their blood is mutagen or atleast can mutate those that ingest it. I guess Mikey now has a son.... pigeon pete-

Love how leatherhead immediately adopted him.

Ough the self deprecating from each turtle and their different perspectives on what happened is perfect. Leo being nothing without his brothers, Raph wanting to be stronger to protect them, Donnie believing hes just the tech guy and Mikey feeling out of place. I can already see the potential for first.

And this bishop... she's a bishop alright, or well, similar to 03 bishop in wanting to eliminate all mutants, a "human threat" while also ending up endangering humans in their attempts. Same motives for different reasons. Mutants(or really a mutant) destroyed what she loved, something for her sister who I'm not sure is dead or she just really loves her.

One thing I must thank my turtle posters for is so far no 2012apriltello/caseytello/capriltello or whatever love story equivalent with the leopril. It's so refreshing and actually is very cute. Leo still has a crush it's just not blasted into your eyes, and I couldn't be more happy.

They included alot of possibly forgotten characters(I say possibly because some haven't watch the older versions, and thats okay), there is Angel who reminds me alot of Kendra, Hun appears again as a possible bro to Raph, ofc pigeon pete Michelangelo's son(I will not explain) and you already heard of bishop. There's probably more but I'm only half way in and I took a break to get some food.

If you can, you should watch it, it's very fun and silly, also, possible angst. The music is great, and the art and animation are fan-fucking-tastic like, holy shit, but that's to be expected (if you plan to watch it, read tags plz)

Overall I give 10/10, would give hun a chicken

Oh, and there's Rod, I guess.

Edit: Omfg is Splinter the Rat King?

Edit 2: Yes... yes he is.

I should've mentioned it before, but I love how we are getting to see the turtles interacting with their cousins and other... family members(scumbug ajshshjs). I also live how rockstrady and bebop are THOSE cousins. Always getting into trouble, making stuff worse but you can't help but love em

they’re formative yaoi to me

Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will

[pampanope]

More Dadler and Graveson~

I got this hc that a lot happened around Phillip without him ever noticing 👀

But he’s probably gonna look back on all this shit with adultier sensibilities and have his mind blown away

[teacupsandcyanide]

Something I miss from earlier eras of the creative side of the internet was things just being unabashedly low-budget. Just all unashamedly amateur, unprofessional, ‘I don’t own a good camera but I have a story to tell you’, ‘I can’t afford a good mic but I have a song to sing for you,’ ‘I don’t have any kind of background in editing or lighting and I only just picked up this guitar last Tuesday but here’s an entire musical me and my friends wrote about our favourite book, we filmed it on a potato and put it up on YouTube in ten minute segments because we thought it was pretty funny.’
