"if tumblr dies you can find me on bluesky" "if tumblr dies you can find me on Instagram" if tumblr dies you cannot find me. It's over. I'm free.
Yet another example of how we’ve come full circle back into the 1930’s- - back when snake oil salesmen like Norman Baker could mix opiates with watermelon seeds, market it as a world renown cancer cure, and lock you in the hospital basement when you’re finally in enough pain because of the crippling disease he claimed to be curing that you just scream- - died of infection, sure.
The people who consider abortion to be murder would be so upset to learn that throughout most of human history, the alternative to abortion and birth control was actually infanticide and not just having the baby and raising it. Especially in times of immense stress and reduced resources. Murdering babies was a thing humans and our ancestors did for thousands of years to ensure the survival of the species. Abortion and birth control has enabled us to live in a much gentler society.
can we reintroduce “disturbing” back into the popular lexicon in place of most uses of “traumatizing”
“This experience puts me in a worse mental state and my well-being will be compromised…”
- Discomfort: “…until the stimulus is removed; there’s a chance I will have forgotten about this experience by tomorrow” (“I got rained on, I need a hot shower”)
- Distress: “…for the rest of the day, but probably no more than a week; I may require some level of care and social support to make it more bearable” (“I had to sleep in the freezing rain without shelter, I might need to take a few days off work”)
- Trauma: “…for months or years, potentially forever; this experience may have fundamentally changed part of who I am and I will need to dedicate time and resources towards recovery and healing” (“I lost some toes to frostbite and every time I see my feet I am reminded of the time I thought I would die”)
• Annoyance: "...not really, I just don't like it and will sort it out as soon as I can." ("It was raining and while I'm wearing a good raincoat I got some water droplets on my glasses.")
during transitory periods of your life you may hit a 'this isn't even worth it, i'm already exhausted out of my mind from the effort of bringing this about, and losing any comforts i may have had in my life before - is it even going to be better for all of this?'. that's the hater PRINCE DIOS speaking and you have to run him over with a car
tumblr is one of the only places i will actually unmute a video when the tags are like "omg unmute it" bc i know most everyone else on this website loves reading and hates noise like i do so it must be pretty good
I don’t know much about the world, but it seems like if you take #exjw and add it to #worldwide church of god, you end up with #tw. scripture.
