this, genuinely, might be the best tiktok i've ever seen

Why are we like this? Haven't we learned?? I was so naive and thought that it would be close for the sake of drama, but it wouldn't ACTUALLY be possible. We couldn't collectively be that fucking stupid could we??

This is the story of the girl going back to the most abusive and toxic boyfriend in the world after breaking up, but like a billion times worse...

I wish peace and good things for the next four years to anyone who voted blue. You didn't ask for, or deserve, any of this.

For all the reds, I hope those voters get EXACTLY what they voted for.

Anybody who either voted third party or purposely did NOT vote as a protest: Play stupid games, win stupid prizes... Apparently you "said" this isn't the outcome you wanted, but your actions speak louder than your words. Good luck out there.

Jesus.

self isolating to cope is great until you look up one day and years have passed and you realise no one knew you when you were 18 or 19 or 20 or 21 and now they never will

[girlsmoonsandstars]

the great thing about un-isolating yourself is that you can literally start making friends whenever you want, and most people will continue to do so through the rest of their lives. you will meet new people at 28 and 37 and 43 and 56 and 61 and 72 and 85 and 94 who will love you.

you will spend the rest of your life meeting people who will love you.

[madlori]

replies be full of tumblrinas discovering Jordan The Stallion for the first time.

FYI his longest running joke is that everyone thinks he's 40 when in reality he is 26.

Gamers this has been on my mind for a while, and I've been Going Through It so I can't thoughtfully articulate it yet but: the little things can, and absolutely will, save you.

[qunaributts]

It's noticing the bunny in the yard eating dandelions one by one. It's buying lemonade from eager kids at a stand using change scrounged from the center console of your car. It's enjoying the smell of hot pavement steaming after a brief summer rain. It's taking a breath that feels fuller and more satisfying than usual.

It's painstakingly training your brain to notice the small but rampant string of good things woven through every single day. It's that same kind of training that you have to do in order to undo the years of anxious patterns that have been ruthlessly hammered into the soft pathways of your mind.

I don't know how to connect the two dots, but the connection is there. I know it's there because something as silly as the satisfying crunch of a knife cutting a crisp grilled cheese sandwich in half has meant the difference between hanging on and panicking during a stressful day.

I can't explain how the many small things I did and asked for and noticed over YEARS finally coalesced into something solid and real and steadying but they did. I'm not saying that petting the one patch of fur between your pets ears that's a little softer than any other spot is going to cure your depression tomorrow.

But I'm suggesting that when you stitch it together with a thousand other things from a thousand other days, it might just rescue you from the one day in your future that would have destroyed you otherwise.

Furthermore whoever removed the audio jack from phones should be grilled in front of congress. The fact that I need a dongle to listen to music on a modern telephone while 20 years ago I could have simply plugged a universally standardized cord into the audio jack everyone knew how to use is an anti-human move that should be punished.

I’ve been in the middle of the ocean at night and now live in texas and it is so hard to explain to people that no, they have not ever seen the night sky. It is so hard to explain to people that what they think is a proper night sky is fucking pathetic. A disgrace.

People talk about how you can’t see stars in the city and yeah, that’s true, but their concept of “seeing stars” is being able to make out orion’s belt.

So, so few people have see the sky in all its glory and it’s not sad. It’s a fucking crime. Seeing a perfectly dark night, no clouds, not a hint of light pollution? That’s a fucking religious experience.

The sky the vast vast majority of us grew up with is not the sky that inspired us to look up. It is not the sky that inspired constellations. You can’t even see most constellations.

Your ancestors looked at the night sky and said “surely, that is where the gods must live.” And you might be lucky if you can see hardly more than a handful of stars.

The sky is full, fucking FULL, of stars, and you’ve never seen them.

[anarchistmemedistro]

light pollution is also actively harmful to many species of birds, mammals, and insects

[neil-gaiman]

I took these photos on the Isle of Skye, in a place with no light pollution. Skies can look like this.

the concept and idea of “you can always start trying to be a better person” is extremely important to me both in media and irl and i continue to be deeply deeply disturbed by the trend on this site pushing that these ideas in media are bad writing or even morally reprehensible

because theyd rather someone stay terrible or just straight up die than become a better person 

from a compassionate point of view it’s deeply distressing and from a pragmatic point of view it’s outright frustrating

it’s fucked up. 

[falliblefabrial]

What is the most important step a man can take?

The next.

[babblingfishes]

I think part of the pushback about this is the idea that, to “redeem” bad people, their victims must first forgive them for unforgivable acts.

This is false. No one is obligated to forgive you. You can learn from your mistakes and become the best, kindest person on earth, and the people you’ve hurt still won’t forgive you, and you’ll have to accept that. And that doesn’t mean you aren’t allowed to grow. Because we aren’t just “pure” or “sinful”, we’re complex.

I have to trust that I am getting where I am going even if it's slowly and not on the timeline I imagined - real life is better and more interesting than that

Hyperrealistic Paintings That Can Fit in Your Pocket by Remington Robinson

the happiest dog i’ve seen in my life

[religion-is-a-mental-illness]

An interesting demonstration of how the human brain works.

But also something of a lesson regarding perception, and the unreliability of subjective perspective versus objective reality.

You can be extremely certain about how you perceive the world, your "lived experience," that which you "feel it in my heart." But that doesn't mean it's actually true. And it doesn't mean we have to endorse it, or ignore or outright deny objective reality.

That's a "you" thing, not a "we" thing.

shout out to the sound designer who was like "I know exactly what kind of music to whip out for this one!"
