what they dont tell you about adulthood is that it’s startlingly easy to go long periods of time without having any fun at all not even a little bit. btw this causes ur brain to try to kill you with knives and hammers.

Crab Day!!!

Where:

Here on Tumblr!!

What:

Buy crabs!

Why:

As we now know, Tumblr is $30 million dollars in debt. Oops. Tumblr has announced some major (and unpopular) changes to the site in their attempt to get back above water. The alternative is that Tumblr ceases to exist. But maybe we can change that...

How:

There are 327 million unique tumblr visits per month, and almost 500 million active accounts. If 10 million unique users (or less, if we bought more than one) bought or gifted Crabs from the Tumblr store, we could knock out Tumblr's debt easily. Buy crabs!

When:

July 29, 2023 is Crab Day, running through August 5 (for anyone who can't log on that day) as Crab Week!

Who:

Everyone!! If you truly can't afford to participate with a $3 crab, (or other item from the shop) post crab memes!

Time for Tumblr users to rise again and surprise everyone...

Tumblr already has a personalization algorithm it's called my beloved mutuals who have great taste and only wish to psychologically damage me sometimes

CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions

What I Haven't Seen

[tedansleysboyf]

I don’t get the Met Gala or whatever. Like I kinda get the Olympics, we all watch people who are good at sports be good at sports every 2 years, yea cool.

BUT EVERY FUCKING YEAR PEOPLE COLLECTIVELY DECIDE TO WATXH A BUNCH OF RICH PEOPLE PLAY DRESS UP??

And I would even be as mad, but also every year it’s like “yea these outfits were inspired by famous puppy kicker” or “everyone here is standing in defiance of a boycott”

I’d say probably get it for her, I know some families are weird about that, and I get your concern about the makeup industry. But makeup is fun! I mean I’m a fairly masc cis guy, like work in a barbecue shop chopping wood lumberjack shit, and every chance I get I have someone do my makeup. (I can’t figure that shit out, it’s complicated and putting stuff near my eyes myself makes me anxious.) But makeup is fun. It’s like face dress-up! Because when you play dress up, you don’t necessarily have to think you look better in a princess dress. But, you do look different and that’s what makes it fun!

was hanging out yesterday with that little girl I mentioned who doesn't talk much (she talks more now though) and she was eating a popsicle and she kept dabbing her fingertip onto the popsicle and then dabbing the juice daintily onto her lips. I thought it was just a non standard way of eating a popsicle but then later she had one of those little trays of (kids', nontoxic) watercolor paints and she kept dabbing her finger into the colors and then, daintily, onto her lips. very careful and artistic about it, not smearing it around. neither me nor my sister wears makeup so it never occurred to me that a little kid would find that fun to play pretend about. her third birthday is coming up and I sort of want to give her this little dealie

but like. is that weird. I don't want to indoctrinate her into makeup culture or make her think she needs it. but if she's already having fun playing pretend with it then this seems more fun and less messy than popsicles or watercolors. I should ask my sister, she's up on all this stuff

@trice-thenobling

Lying to children is fun when they know you are being ridiculous. When you hold up a carrot like “guys look at this huge Cheeto” and they all scream “NOOOOOOOOO that’s a CARE-OTT!”

“What? No, it’s my giant Cheeto.”

“NOOOOOOO!”

Ya see? Ya see this? This is why we can’t have nice things. Some of you motherfuckers are so dead that it kills me. Play pretend. Run in a stream. Have a heart.

imagine being this fucking joyless
