YOU GET IT
I've said it before and I'll say it again: This has the vibes of those Saint Sebastian paintings where he's all full of arrows.

QUICK everyone say something vague and ominous about your WIP that will only make sense later
To participate myself: In many ways, Silas is Jason’s Harvey Dent.
I’m so proud of senshi for making it so far in the tumblr sexyman poll. I think it’s so beautiful that tumblr has reached a point where a short fat hairy bearded man is the pinnacle of sexuality for a large swath of this userbase. it’s like when you see before & after pictures of a rainforest recovering from deforestation. nature is healing and we can fight god
I hope he wins so someone will have to explain to ryoko kui what a tumblr sexyman is
If we assume a generation is 20-30 years, how many years would a group of people have to be isolated from other people to become genetically distinct enough to be scientifically classified as a separate species?
Am *trying* to continue writing my fics!!! Am *trying* to have fun gaming.
Am *trying* to do craft activities.
Can I do any of these highly fun activities?
NO!!!
Why not??
Brain melted, too hot. No energy only tired.
Well if tired sleep maybe??
No, no sleep, only tired.
But no, is too hot, and I am too tired, in pain and foggy headed to do anything!!!
I want this heat wave to fuck off and let me do things again :(
Maybe you could try reading "fluff" or "comfort" tagged fanfictions? Maybe crack fic too. Social media/chatfics. Easy but absorbing, and more long-form than tumblr posts, so if you successfully vanish into one you can stay there for a while. Also less likely to randomly throw something upsetting at you. That's what I'd try, anyway. Totally understand if what (sometimes) works for me doesn't for you, so feel free to just ignore me, ofc.
its pretty much what I've been doing between bursts of trying and failing to do the thing.
I've got 5 on going fics right now, and I want to write them and share them!!!! Also, one hasn't been udlpdated in two months and I feel bad about it. Like I'm neglecting it.
But yeah, distraction is my only love right now 🥰
Thank you for being kind.
Yeh, heat can be miserable.
If it's any help, I survived 8 summers in TN without AC; my favorite trick was dipping bandanas in water, wringing them out pretty good (decently damp, but not dripping), and freezing them for about an hour. Once frozen, wear on head or back of neck for about an hour of cooling relief.
wtf this is MY timeloop u can't be in here
Yeah, yeah. You said that last loop.
you have won a lifetime supply of this
How do you feel?
good!
I CAN SELL THIS AND GET RICH
im drowning in my supply help
Eh it's okay
BAD. VERY BAD
results/other
you would receive the supply once a month
the brand/type will vary so you could
you can sell the things you get/give them away but they will keep coming until you die
Person in my gas station talking to someone on the phone: ...We're in Ohio...
Me, knowing we're in Utah: ????
Thank you for the map for context. It makes this 1,000 times funnier and intriguing.
Alright I want to know something here:
the 🙃 emoji means (approximately)
silly!*
ugh!*
secret third thing you will explain in tags*
*if comfortable doing so, you may include your age range/generation in the tags for helpful demographic data
kindly reblog for bigger sample size, thanks!
it's five AM who WANTS me. who NEEDS me
airport charged me almost six dollars for a god damn cokey cola wht the HELL
Strange. I wonder what the hospital would have charged.
I really can and will blame the 9-5 for everything. "We're in a loneliness epidemic" well, we have to spend a third of our day interacting with people in a professional way that makes forming real friendships difficult and then we're peopled out by the time we're done. "People are eating more and more unhealthily" people have to spend more than a third of their day doing work related tasks and they don't want to spend their tiny amount of free time making food. "People aren't involved in their local communities" after spending more than a third of their day doing work related things people are tired and also all those community events take place during normal working hours. "People need to get more hobbies" after spending more than a third of their day working, people are TIRED and don't want to do anything that takes yet more energy. "Literacy is dying" to maintain your critical thinking skills you need to read/watch things that make you think and after spending more than a third of your day doing work related stuff you are TIRED and don't want to expend even more brainnpower. "People need to get outside more" People. Are. TIRED. Because they have to spend all of their time working or preparing for work or recovering from work or doing all the chores they couldn't stay on top of because of work. I can blame fucking anything on having to work, it is truly the root of all fucking evil.
Hey OP, love your scalding take here; don't forget about commutes.
Once you factor in commute times (which even for short distances can be grotesquely inflated due to the fact that so many people are all commuting at the same time, but that's a different conversation) many people are actually devoting upwards of 10-12 hours a day on "work related tasks."
If you spent the first half of 2026 in survival mode, may the second half be spent in revival mode. It’s time to heal.

I really wonder what the demographic outcome would be of trans people involuntarily getting "the body you'd have if practicality wasn't a concern" like what percentage of the resulting bodies would be obviously nonhuman?
As Gregor Samsa awoke one morning from uneasy dreams she found herself transformed in her bed into a cyborg werewolf with dragonfly wings.
Personally, my ideal form would itself be fluid. Something I could change again and again whenever and however I please. The exploration is the ideal. I wonder how many others would be the same.
one person's "ugghh this trope is so overdone" is another person's "oooooohohohohohohohoho"
What you have seen a thousand times before, someone else is discovering right now.
do you live in seattle (the american city)?
yes
no
please reblog to get this poll out of my bubble, i want reach
so ive been meaning to do this poll for a while because my hypothesis is that seattle is the most Tumblr city, likely in the entire world. tumblr has a huge american majority userbase obviously, but just for comparison going forward, only 0.22% of the american population lives in seattle. as of this reblog, this poll is showing 4% of respondents are seattleites. given, this isnt scientific at all, because my blog just has a lot of seattle connections and seattle followers, but it's still an impressive bias
Martina McBride didn't win Country Music Association Song of the Year for a song about how burning your house down with your abusive husband still inside it is good, noble, and an allegory for the American Revolution for people to act like the genre belongs to bootlicking fucks
other things people didn't do for you to act like country music belongs to bootlicking fucks:
Garth Brooks winning video of the year at the ACMs for a song about how none of us are free as long as there's racism and homophobia
Reba McEntire charting with a gothic horror song about an innocent man being executed by an incompetent judge and a corrupt sheriff
Willie Nelson being, well, his entire self tbh
Dolly Parton recording the hating capitalism banger of all time
Kacey Musgraves telling everyone to ignore the haters, smoke weed, and be a bisexual slut
how the hell did I leave Morgan Wade off this list. wrote a song about being depressed, alcoholic, and suicidal and how mental illness stigma sucks, saw how much people connected with it, wrote a Part II of that song about how she's doing better now but you're never totally free of the risk of relapse. fucking icon.
I specifically curated this list so people couldn't be like "ah yes but you see here is my simple binary of good and bad country music which always works", I made sure to add different genders, eras, subgenres, etc and y'all are still pulling that shit in the tags!
listen. Alan Jackson, the archetypal mister big hat man sitting on a tractor singing about a pickup truck, wrote a shockingly normal song about 9/11 that was like "yeah I don't know jack shit about politics but my copy of the bible says we're supposed to love everyone" and then went on the radio and explained how he specifically wanted to write a song about that day that "wasn't vengeful". Miranda Lambert took the southern leftist slogan "y'all means all" and made it the title of a corny ass pop-country song for the Queer Eye soundtrack. Kenny Chesney stole a horse from a cop and Tim McGraw put the cop in a chokehold defending him, and I know that's not about their music but it is, and this is very important, fucking sick as hell
it's fine if you only listen to female country artists or pre-1990 country artists or whatever the fuck you want but stop acting like you've cracked the secret code to dividing a whole genre of art into good pure anti-establishment folk songs vs bad corrupted right-wing sellout pulp
updating this post for 2025:
Luke Combs covering Fast Car and keeping the line "I work in the market as a checkout girl" and doing an interview about how he couldn't change a single word because it's not his story. king shit
Morgan Wallen doing I Had Some Help, literally the first song that spoke to me as a male survivor of domestic abuse. also shoutout to the guy for getting caught saying a racial slur and responding by specifically telling his fans not to defend him and raising a bunch of money for the Black Music Action Coalition. bro had an engraved invitation to the culture war and said "nah I'd rather be normal"
Shaboozey just absolutely obliterating the drunk roadhouse anthem glass ceiling
Maren Morris and Brothers Osborne with a song that okay, released in 2019 but I didn't hear until recently, about how good friends mind their own business and let you love whoever you want and also get high with you when you're broke
Kimberley Perry! If I Die Young Part 2!! "actually I'm glad I lived, bitch" ass song that I bet is gonna mean a LOT to kids fighting depression
Kelsea Ballerini and Noah Kahan with Cowboys Cry Too. okay it's shallow and corny but genuinely a shallow and corny song about how men shouldn't be afraid to have feelings is what a lot of men need
bringing the full version of this post back around because people are pissing me off today
Country music is widely believed to have originated from American folk music blending with various immigrant traditions.
And when you let yourself get passed the stereotypes and assumptions and preconceived notions of what country music is supposed to be, you start to hear the stories in the shape of the music.
How can you hate a song about a new father hoping he can be as good a dad as his own Stepdad who stepped up?
About a women whose mother had to turn her out on the streets cause they had literally nothing and she (mother) was about to succumb to illness
About how life goes by too fast and you need to enjoy it while you got it cause you're gonna miss these moments when they're gone
About the house you grew up in being somebody else's now, but your whole childhood was there and maybe just being there a moment will help you remember yourself
When you let yourself really listen, you find it's rarely about the tractor or the beer. It's usually about memories and nostalgia and people, their stories.
