The evil, vile, nasty, mean-spirited witch.

minors dni, I don't care if you're a child I'm still calling you on your shit. Everyone needs to get used to being a little uncomfortable in public. Curate your goddamn feed or someone will do it for you.

me as a teenager: man it sucks to have no privacy or autonomy but i guess its for a good reason. when i turn 18 i will realise how young i was and understand why they did all that.

me as an adult: teenagers are an oppressed class, their abuse is normalised and systemic and they need to start killing people

[gayvampyr]

it really pisses me off when adults sit there and drill it into kids’ heads that their youth is fleeting and tell them things like “enjoy your childhood while it lasts because this is the best it’s gonna get”. why are you telling children that adulthood is the worst thing they can experience? seriously what the fuck is wrong with you, why are you trying to make them feel like growing up is a fate worse than death? trying to convince them their life is over before it even begins? i’m tired of that shit. because tell my why my 12 year old cousin told me when she turns 30 she’ll be so depressed she’s just gonna cry all the time. what the fuck. kids don’t need to hear that their already stressful and overwhelming lives are never going to get better, that the abuse and lack of autonomy they face is apparently the highlight of their lives. they need to hear about adults who are happy to be alive and happy to have made it to their age. they need to know that growing up rules, it’s a gift and life does not have to suck for them, that they have a future that’s worth sticking around for. this rhetoric is so damaging mentally and i’m about to start hitting the adults who parrot it. i’m sorry you hate your life but you don’t get to dump your issues on these kids. don’t piss me off and leave these babies alone!

And then after all that bitching and whining they turn out to be wrong. I love adulthood! I can make any decisions I want and suffer my own consequences rather than having things chosen for me and suffering the fallout of my parents dictation of my life.

"okay, but are you a nonbinary woman or a nonbinary man" im going to nonbury you in a fucking hole.

ID: A youtube comment with 11 likes by Niceone, it says "I've lived 46 years without knowing this. How nice of life to save some of the best bites for later." End ID.

Normally, people tend to get frustrated, even jokingly, if they miss out on something. This comment was on a song from 1974 and it made me smile quite much. Simply appreciative. Like a dessert after dinner.

It is genuinely mind blowing to me just how many Tumblr posts have changed my life for the better and taught me to be happier. Not all of the thoughts originate on Tumblr, but the way people collect and frame them has literally changed my brain chemistry.

The most embarassing part of going to the gym is that I don't know where anything is or how it works or what I'm doing or what to do. I don't even know what a muscle is. Are you supposed to move your body in here

[syn4k]

"lock in" is probably one of the most important phrases to enter the public lexicon in the 2020s

Jeffrey Dahmer is unrepeatable. It is essentially impossible for anyone to possess all those positive qualities at the same time. Only a handful of people came somewhat close to him, but only Dahmer could truly be himself—forever.

Dahmer was born into a tragic situation, lived a tragic life, and met a deeply tragic end. What a shame.

[coldcryptvapor]

Positive qualities??? He was a depraved white man who was mildly charismatic and that is all he had to be for the media to forget that he FUCKING RAPED MURDERED AND ATE PEOPLE.

He is not a tragic figure.

I am so sorry that Mommy didn't give him enough hugs but he KILLLED 17 PEOPLE. He experienced less than he deserved after what he did.

I am so tired of idiots like you glorifying perpetrators of real life tragedies. Grow the fuck up.

[coldcryptvapor]

Alright, time to regress back to college me and do something mildly impossible in a caffeine induced frenzy.

Something I do find lovely about the first 4 Murderbot Diaries books (can’t yet speak on all of them) is:

Murderbot chronically finding new scientists/travellers to claim as “clients” (whether paid or not) like one of those sheepless herding dogs that goes around finding sheep (or anything else they can herd like a flock of sheep). Like it clearly has a protect humans instinct and a desperate need for enrichment.

Given its general lack of self awareness and unreliable narrator status, there’s no way in hell Murderbot is aware it’s doing this.

[silas-lehnsherr]

Murderbot: I just want to be left alone to watch my shows. I care nothing for these humans. I hate having clients.

Also Murderbot: *noticing unaccompanied humans that have nothing to do with it at all* Oh look, clients.

Heed this warning. The surveillance state is coming and you need to be aware.

I live in the northwest coast of Canada so we walk everywhere and do stuff outside in the rain and swim in whatever lakes and rivers we find so imagine my smug sense of Canadian superiority when I met a USAmerican Midwesterner who was horrified at the very thought

And then I went to the USAmerican Midwest

And I understood

[teaboot]

What I mean to say is that it's very easy to delude yourself into believing you are more in tune with your environment when your environment is not actively hostile to your existence in every conceivable way

[teaboot]

BC, Canada:

Rains frequently, but the worst is like standing under a bathroom shower. Genuinely inhospitable rainstorms are uncommon.

Along the coast, it's pretty easy in most areas to walk to at least one store, or else there's usually a bus or shuttle available. There are sidewalks and bike lanes everywhere.

It's a temperate boreal rainforest, so while there are many freshwater lakes and rivers, they're usually pretty cold. The biggest danger is typically getting caught in a strong current, and the most dangerous animals in swimming distance are on land.

Earthquakes happen almost every day, but the vast majority go unnoticed. Buildings are designed to withstand bigger seismic activity, so unless it's a 5 or higher it just kind of feels like having low blood sugar for a second. There are no tornados

Rural Illinois, USA:

One minute it's sunny, then ten minutes later that distant smudge on the horizon has swallowed the entire sky in black clouds and the water is coming down like waterfall and you literally CANNOT SEE. Then there's a crash like cymbals and you need to get indoors because the thunder and lightening are on TOP of you

No sidewalks until you are in the smack dab center of town, which is a three hour walk or twenty minute drive from wherever you are.

There aren't many natural bodies of water other than small ponds and creeks, and because the environment is so much warmer, those are filled with snapping turtles that can grow bigger than a nine year old child and water snakes that are incredibly venomous. These are paired with leeches and mosquitos for that sweet umami flavor.

Sometimes Jupiter, Lord of the Heavens decides to jam his finger into the side of your house just to fuck with your whole shit and throws your truck a thousand yards into the nearest church

[vetchtibbles]

funny how normal human rights don’t have to apply to you if your parents don’t want them to

[vetchtibbles]

I was going to say “if you’re a child” but remembered when I turned 18 and realised I was still stuck at home and nothing was going to change if my parents didn’t want it to

[rajamitsu]

…okay, I couldn’t stay in angst mode for too long. Hail Mary/Murderbot crossover: shenanigans edition. Unrelated to the previous comic, assuming they all end up on Preservation.

Grace and Ratthi would be a menace. And poor Mensah would likely have to be the adult in the room more often than not.

[coldcryptvapor]

ART would already have one they just didn't tell any non-crew.
