hey, i was wondering that after you've learned html/css, javascript, jquery and all that jazz, what's the next step to creating beautiful tumblr themes? is there a specific program to use? what do i use to code stylesheets? i guess i'm asking what do i do after i've learned the programming language and all that, what were the first things/resources you used when you began making tumblr themes? thanks for reading :)

Hm this is an interesting question! Okay firstly you should check out Tumblr’s Theme Docs. This is where you’ll find all of the info about coding for Tumblr specifically, such as all of the variables. There is a complete markup example on that page that you can use as a base. This is what I would personally recommend. However, if you’d prefer to use an actual base code, you can find a few here. I think there is great value in studying a high quality base code, though I’d encourage you to create your own as soon as you’re able to. Take all of that code and paste it on the Customize page. Next, experiment! Trial and error is a really important part of the theme making process so take your time getting comfortable with this page! You’ll notice that external stylesheets aren’t really common in Tumblr themes, though you’re able to add external assets using the file manager if you’d prefer.  

When I started making themes, I wasn’t aware of these resources but I wish I had been! I think this is the most efficient way to get into theme making though, and I’d really encourage doing it this way! Hope this helps!

Why is it that when 2 girls make out people will argue that they are straight and just really close friends but when 2 male Internet personalities so much as glance at each other there is 1.54 million 12 year olds that will create 7 minute long videos trying to prove they are gay

How to make sentences in Korean! [CORRECTED]

Sentences in English go in the order: Subject, Object, Verb.

Korean sentences go in the order:

1. Subject + Noun = 나는 의사다 (I’m a doctor)

2. Subject + Verb = 나는 공부하고 있다 (I’m studying)

3. Subject + Adjective = 날씨가 좋다 (The weather is nice)

4. Subject + Object + Verb = 나는 한국어를 공부해요 (I study Korean)

~고 있다 = “(I am)   ~ing”.

~있었다 = past tense form of “있다

I hate Freud. His whole weird theory about penis envy and children being sexually attracted to their parents and secret desires and all that shit actually came straight out of an attempt to ally himself with wealthy and influential rapists and was a direct form of victim blaming.

He had started the research looking into “hysteria” which at the time was really usually referring to women’s symptoms of PTSD. It turned out that the reason so many woman had these symptoms is because so many of them had experienced sexual violence– especially CSA and incest at the hands of their fathers. 

At first he was making real progress, and it was through working with these women that he discovered that talk therapy could be used to treat trauma. The symptoms of PTSD were lessened when women were able to safely speak about their experiences out loud and be believed. 

But it wasn’t the women who paid for the therapy. It was their fathers, husbands, the same men who were perpetuating the violence in the first place. And Freud didn’t want to validate his patients (the women) if it meant making his clients (the men) unhappy.

So he came up with a new idea. These symptoms weren’t from trauma. The memories weren’t real. These women were just sexual beings as children and had penis envy and it made them lust for their fathers and fantasize about the rape that they had reported to him. That’s where the shittiest parts of Freud’s theories emerged. Another part of it besides just the monetary aspect, though, was that there was a feminist movement on the fringes starting up at the time and by publishing work about women’s CSA he would be aligning himself with it and therefore losing support, respect, funding, prestige from his male peers and from the psychological community at large. He literally made that gross victim blaming shit up to keep his own reputation with these fucks and to make sure he still got publication and fame.

By coming up with fake theory about little girls fantasizing about incest he not only fucked over generations of women, the feminist movement that was arising, and the entire psychology field for years to come, but he also completely swept away any progress made in understanding trauma and so we didn’t have any clue why men coming back from war had “hysteria” like women during WWI.

And our research on PTSD and trauma is still lacking to this day, especially because of the stigma that maybe traumatized people deserved it or wanted it or imagined it. People don’t want to believe it’s real. Perpetrators of traumatic violence want everyone to forget about it, not acknowledge it, or trivialize it.

And they have Freud’s cultural legacy to help them.

If you want some more, just google, “Sigmund Freud Seduction Theory Problematic.” There’s lots of academic and non-academic discussion on the topic, but TLDR Sigmund Freud is basically disregarded in almost all aspects of psychology by anyone who actually cares about their patients, so fuck that guy for holding psychology back.

Words cannot express how much I hate Freud. His theories have been entirely disproven by current psychological research, but using him to interpret literary texts is still a widely accepted technique in the field of literary study today.

English departments across the country will not bat an eye at tenured professors bringing Freud into lectures and citing him in scholarly articles and books. Doing a “Freudian reading” of a literary character or theme is regarded as a valid means of understanding and drawing meaning from works by authors as diverse as William Shakespeare, James Joyce, and C.S. Lewis. And it is based entirely on this guy’s unbelievably sexist, flat-out fraudulent, and thoroughly disproven research. It’s insane.

“It’s the hard things that break; soft things don’t break. It was an epiphany I had today and I just wonder why it took me so very, very long to see it! You can waste so many years of your life trying to become something hard in order not to break; but it’s the soft things that can’t break! The hard things are the ones that shatter into a million pieces!” ― C. JoyBell C.

Dual signs have two sides to use and find the balance in between and not just focus on one part and ignore the other. I know people say Libra is about others but Libra is about self and others, the balance between being you and being with others. Sadly most Libras live most of their life trying to stratifying or connecting with others while ignoring the other side of them that is about them. Libra is about balance between the I & We. It’s not about one side but rather both.

“If nothing else in this long and short life, let me be true to my conscience, to the dignity of my own heart. Let me act in a way that says, I have honored my spirit as truly as I have honored others’. Let me stand tall and rooted as a mountain in the face of a quaking world.” ― Jennifer DeLucy

Sagittarius Rising: It is nice to spread positive energy everywhere and explore the world but do cherish the moments that you spend by yourself and from time to time do remember you have every right to settle down and lay your roots somewhere. Life will not stop for you if you take a moment and think about what you need instead of how making other people entertained and happy.  

Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of expansion and this why when you are in a room with a Sagittarius they seem huge and bigger than life itself. On top of that add an abundance of energy that can lift anyone’s mood easily and this is the reason that makes people like being around Sagittarius. Jupiter is not only about expansion but it also about believing in luck and that good things will come around. Also there’s a desire or a need to travel, see the world and pursue higher education in all it’s forms in order to keep to grow intellectually . To view life through a certain philosophy that makes living life seem meaningful and important. To be able to touch people’s heart and minds through simple words filled with energy and affection. 

Sagittarius keeps on looking for the bright side in life because they face so many hardships in life and they understand the importance to hold onto hope. They will love deeply, respect and fight for you once they love you and they will try to provide you with the best in the world. They are aggressive fighters but they are wise in choosing the battles to fight for. They usually close to their father than their mother, their father was the one who installed important values and ideas in them and they grow with it. They try to respect everyone and they accept people from all over the world. They are the stranger that never belongs to one place and as they go from one place to another, from one person to another they keep spreading love and warmth.  

With this rising you will have on your 7th house/the descendant the sign of Gemini. It is your opposite sign and it suppose to indicate the type of partners you like and how you will behave when in love. It is your opposite sign and it is the sign that balances you out, you may think of it as your shadow side when you are in private or in love. With Gemini on 7th on the descendant you desire a partner that you can chill and relax with and have good time being together. You want someone you can travel the world with and explore everything together, someone who you can share your ideas and beliefs with and to broaden each other’s horizon. You want someone to be your best friend and have fun with. You desire someone respects giving you the space and freedom you need and you will do the same.   

Features: They depend on the planets that exist on the first house, so having other planets can change your features from your typical Sagittarius rising.

The eyes tend to be small or average sized and the lips are thin and small but becomes wide when smiling. The nose is usually medium size and hooked on the end. The face tends to longish and squarish and the neck tends to be tall.

Loving yourself is not (necessarily):

Thinking you’re gorgeous

Not wanting to change anything about your body, personality, or life

Loving yourself is:

Knowing you have inherent worth regardless of your physical appearance or life circumstance

Knowing you deserve good things

Wanting to take care of yourself because you deserve good things

My emotions are valid*

*valid does not mean healthy, or good, or to be privileged above common sense and kindness

[proxi-centauri]

A distinction for anyone who is young and hasn’t figured this out yet:

You are allowed to have whatever emotions you want. No one can control your emotions. Emotions are healthy responses to things.

You are not allowed to have behaviors that are harmful just because you have certain emotions. Your behaviors are what you can control, and they are far easier to control than your emotions.

You can be jealous about someone or their talents until you turn green, but it is harmful to yourself and to that person if you try to sabotage them because of it. You can be so angry you can literally feel your temperature rise, but this does not give you permission to rage at others.

Your emotions are valid. They are always valid. You are a person of value. However, you behaviors are not always justified just because of those emotions. You may not be able to control you emotions, but you can certainly control your behaviors.

[jumpingjacktrash]

and this one, i beg you to learn before you become right-wing fundamentalists: just because something gives you revulsion feelings does not mean it’s morally wrong.

you may be sex-repulsed; that doesn’t mean sex is dirty and bad. maybe you were bullied by teenage girls; that doesn’t mean teenage girls are a force of evil. perhaps a villain in a work of fiction reminds you of someone who abused you; that doesn’t mean people who enjoy that character or that fiction are abusive. your feelings about those things are absolutely valid, and it’s not right for people to tell you you shouldn’t feel that way. but it’s also not right for you to act out against others based on those feelings.

that instinct to generalize served our species well when we were hunter-gatherers living in small bands in a hostile wilderness. you nibble a delicious-looking berry, you throw up, you know that berry is BAD and you make the yuck face whenever you see it so the other hominids know it’s a bad one. but in the modern world, in the information age, there are so many complex things you might encounter, you’re going to have badfeels about a lot of things that aren’t actually across-the-board bad.

you need to not be ruled by your hominid yuckberry instinct. that’s where bigotry comes from.
