My top two driving pet peeves:

People not using headlights in rain or at twilight

When I’m trying to turn right out of a driveway or at an intersection and someone trying to turn left creeps up to block my view when they obviously don’t have a gap

smash or pass a gentle summer rainstorm

smash to smithereens brother

Is he… y'know… one of Jackrum’s little lads?

Polly Perks: "Oh I get it, they call us "Monstrous" because they are afraid of the little girls they see us to be, and even more of our exploration and defiance of gender roles and expression, and the bonds we can create in the process"

Maladict, foaming at the mouth: "Polly for the last time I'm a fucking Vampire"

Me: rarely drinks

Also me: *takes psychic damage* I’m going to take up day drinking

If I start my sentence with "Girl" I mean it in a gay way like I'm about to bitch to you about my coworkers who I hate and who I am nothing but nice to. If I start my sentence with "Maaan" I mean it in a tired teen boy way. Like Shaggy learning that he's eaten the last of his vile sandwiches

theres a phenomenon that happens on here i have been calling "normalize loving parents posting" which is when you spend a lot of time on tumblr and are exposed to a lot of one specific counter-cultural narrative day in and day out until you start to forget what the dominant ideas are for most of the human population and thus feel the need to "defend" things that are widely accepted and popular. it's called this because of the time a bunch of text posts about shitty dads were circulating and then people with good relationships with their dad didn't feel included enough and started making "uhmmm can we normalize loving parents? not everyone has a deadbeat dad, MY dad is great" type posts, seemingly forgetting that good relationship with dad is a cultural norm that is expected and encouraged. i think its good practice, especially when im annoyed, to stop before i hit the post button and ask myself if this is a real issue or if im normalize loving parents posting. because often im about to try to normalize loving parents

common examples of normalize loving parents posting:

  • support women who shave their legs and wear makeup every day
  • let's hear it for masculine men
  • reminder that two people of the same gender can have a close platonic relationship!! not everything is gay!!
  • skinny shaming is hurtful too guys
  • does anyone else think [ironic kink du jour] is strange and freaky and gross?

idk if it’s been mentioned on stream yet or not, but it was just posted on the gamers outreach website that scar is now a member of their board of directors!

Grian: --and, um, we saw that, uh, one of our own, in the group, Mumbo, he, uh, he helped out a little bit behind the scenes. Are you a-able to say, like, what did-what did he bring to the movie?
Director of Minecraft Movie, Jared Hess: Look, he was my lifeline. I mean, you know, when-when you're making a movie like this, you know, you-you work on--you know, ideas for action sequences and set pieces almost years in advance, and-and so, when we were, you know, working on the script, and coming up with ideas, and just all the cool stuff that was possible and what you could do, it's like, "oh my gosh, let's go to the-the big redstone genius himself, uh, Mumbo Jumbo." (Grian and Scar begin laughing quietly)
Grian: "Big" being the keyword.--
Director: --for ideas--
Grian: "Big" being the keyword, he-he's a unit.
Director: Yeah--dude, he's a-he's a tall drink of water, that guy, holy smokes. (Grian and Scar begin laughing harder) Um, yeah, but he-uh, he was amazing, and he-I-I'd be like, emailing him, or calling him--

To reduce my screen time, I have weaponised my overactive and entirely impractical levels of empathy for inanimate objects. Wym you’re picking it up again? While it was sleeping? You complete and utter monster, let it rest!!

And it works. It works like a CHARM. Silly problems require silly solutions!
