The Great Male Renunciation- when the fops turned into dandies
never thought i’d be saying this as a nepali person but the rest of the world has a lot to learn from nepal when it comes to revolution lol
young people literally spent two days showing the full force of their wrath against a horrific, corrupt system run by politicians that embezzled away every single cent of citizen money. they protested, and when the cops turned to violence, they did too. many of the biggest and most corrupt politicians (including the prime minister) were forced to resign, had their houses swarmed by crowds of furious people, were beat within an inch of their lives, and had their money thrown out onto the streets.
real, actual change is on the way in a country plagued by exploitation and poverty and corruption for DECADES because the population rallied together behind the sheer force of the young population and their anger - so much so that it’s being called the gen z revolution. THIS is how revolutions come about when every attempt to use peaceful means is met with bullets and suppression and social media bans in an effort to shut people up. and i think the west has a lot to learn about what true revolution and true progression is, because the way that our political discourse is so weak and watered down and pushed to be ‘friendly’ and ‘understanding’ is so pathetic at times. THERE IS NO NEGOTIATING WITH YOUR OPPRESSORS.
'all forms of political violence is bad' read it and weep losers
Hey someone suggested I use ChatGPT to figure out adulting today, and as I was going through the mental list of places I'd rather look, I realized "beloved strangers on Tumblr dot net" was on that list.
So if you have an aspect of adulting that you're really good at-taxes, budgeting, cooking, insurance, credit, time management, house upkeep, anything-please feel free to reblog with any tips.
Not me, but @bitchesgetriches has a lot of great resources for many of these topics on their website.

i love sharing free thing news so long gizzard and the lizard wizard has their discography now on bandcamp for free / PWYW! direct link
(entering 0 as the price allows you to direct download the album, while adding $1 AUD or more adds it to your bandcamp library and streaming!)
One of my favorite bands, after my best buddy introduced me to them! We’ve seen them live in concert three times now, and the last show we saw was supported by the National Symphony Orchestra, and it was GREAT.
And also I left Spotify because fuck Spotify 😊
#genuinely: this is what further research into the famous 'marshmallow test' showed#it wasn't that kids who were able to delay gratification were more likely to be successful later on#due to intrinsic qualities#it was that kids who had a stable upbringing were more likely to be successful#and ALSO: those kids had trust that their caregivers would keep promises#which is WHY they were willing to give up one marshmallow now for the promise of two marshmallows later#kids who did NOT have trustworthy caregivers#or who were in a fundamentally unstable situation#DID NOT have that trust so they wanted their one marshmallow NOW#same deal here i think#it's not that Gen Z is bratty#it's that they have no trust in the system and no faith that promises will be fulfilled#and frankly i do not blame them -@cicerfics
Listen, delayed gratification is supposed to be INTERNAL, okay? Delayed gratification is a fucking fantastic thing to have if you are trying to make gradual changes and improve yourself over time.
I’m currently 34 (yes I’m a Millennial, boooo fuck Millennials you don’t get it blah blah whatever) and in the middle of a bit of a personal upheaval right now because I fucking hate my life, and I hate being me. The solution to “I hate my life” is to end it—obviously not ideal—but the solution to “I hate being me” is to radically change what it’s like to be me, so that’s the option we’re going with.
Now, in doing that, I’ve had to practice delayed gratification A FUCKING LOT, because the things I’m trying to change don’t just happen overnight. As much as I’d love to, I can’t just snap my fingers and instantly acquire a new job, a healthier body, and a happy healed mind. And I’m someone who has and will always prefer things that reward instantly, ex. I explained to my therapist that my favorite chore is laundry, because after a little bit of set-it-and-forget-it, you can turn a pile of dirty laundry into a neat folded stack of clean laundry while sitting in front of the TV. Additionally, my reward for remembering to set a timer to remind me to check on said laundry is that the task doesn’t get stretched out over multiple days, so that’s a nice bonus.
HOWEVER—
and this is a big important “however” so listen the fuck up—
“Delayed Gratification” doesn’t apply to when someone promises you something by a certain time, and they fail to deliver.
At that point, it’s about accountability.
Whether that means holding a person, an organization, or a system held accountable, it is massively important to do it. If the marshmallow test kids were not given their two marshmallows at the end of that test, then any and all tantrums will be justified. If I work for you and you don’t pay me, I’m taking your ass to court, and the reason I’m looking for a new job now is because when you don’t take care of your employees and allow them to keep up with the cost of being alive in the area you’ve placed them in despite 6 years of loyal work (especially in a job climate where changing jobs every 2-ish years is quite common), then they’re gonna start looking for other shit!
If your political leaders consistently overpromise and under-deliver, they don’t deserve reelection, and if this habit of lying is consistent enough across people and time, then we to do whatever we gotta do to change the whole system.
This is like the respect-as-an-authority vs. respect-as-a-person debate, where people say “I’ll respect you if you respect me” when they mean “I’ll respect you as a person when you respect me as an authority.” If someone says “hey, I know you’re entitled to [thing] but please, for my convenience, ‘delay your gratification’ a bit longer and THEN you’ll get [thing],” the correct response to that is “nope, pay the fuck up. I’ll take [thing] right now as promised, or there’ll be consequences.”

I have played 235 hours of Dead Cells and only reached the second level of difficulty (out of 5)
🥲
This is still fucking true how sad is that 😭
Time for my bi-yearly tumblr reawakening yeehaw bitches, anyway I did eventually beat the second level and now I’m on the third 😊 but No Man’s Sky is kinda my new obsession now, so oh well lmao
Oop, bi-yearly reawakening happened a little earlier because I’m bored and other social media isn’t that fun anymore 😅
Ozzy Osbourne’s death is like the death of a crusty white 3 legged no toothed dog in it’s mid 20s. It’s shocking and heartbreaking, but the shock mostly comes from the fact that it lived so long and through so much bodily strain that you kind of subconsciously assumed it was immortal.

Well shit, looks like I’ll have to come back to Tumblr since the account I had for 15 years on Twitter got banned for no reason. Good riddance lmao it’s better here anyway
you can make nearly any object into a good insult if you put ‘you absolute’ in front of it
example: you absolute coat hanger
as well u can just add ‘ed’ to any object and it’s sounds like you were really drunk
example: i was absolutely coat hangered last night
#i was gazeboed mate #i was absolutely baubled
Meanwhile, “utter” works for the first (e.g., “you utter floorboard”) but somehow “utterly” doesn’t seem to work as well for the second (“I was utterly floorboarded”).
Utterly doesn’t work for drunk because it’s the affix for turning random objects into terms for *shocked*, obviously.
… huh. I thought that might just be the similarity to “floored”, and yet “I was utterly coat hangered” does seem to convey something similar.
I have to tell you, I am utterly sandwiched at this discovery.
Completely makes the phrase mean “super tired”.
“God, it’s been a long week, I am completely coat-hangered.”
Something is
Something is wrong with our language
Is it a glitch or a feature?
Feature
this neat feature is called collocative substitution, and it occurs when certain words are strongly linked to certain context and/or phrases. when you read/hear a pair of words that usually wouldn’t go together, your brain fills in the context with what would normally be inferred, given the originally phrased pairing. thus, finding out that there’s a term for this phenomenon may indeed leave you utterly sandwiched. lesser known or less strongly linked phrases and pairings may not be able to translate substituted words to appropriately fit the inferred context, so you were not utterly floorboarded at the club last night, but rather you were absolutely floorboarded, and as this explanation continues to drag on, you may by the end of it find yourself completely coathangered from read it all.
I, like all linguists I have met or even heard of, have a deep intricate love-hate relationship with the English Language because of complete and total coathangering like this
This post is always fun. My contribution: ‘more than a little’ makes it mean angry.
‘Did he…?’
‘Yeah. And I’m more than a little coat-hangered about it.’
Here’s a thing about antisemitism.
Right now, a popular post I made about religion is being reposted by a dark subset of people who are literally asserting that all Jews are reptilian overlords, baby killers, ritual child murderers, satan worshipers, and animal abusers. Some are literally saying things like “we need to have a holy war to cleanse these people.” I have reported and blocked over 100 accounts for this, and I’ve seen their bios, their profile pics, and their pages. And here’s the thing.
They’re right wing, and they’re left wing. They’re men, and women, and trans, and nonbinary. Some have their preferred pronouns in their header, and some have deus vult or 14/88. They will have a post about meaningful gun reform right before a post about killing Jews for blood libel. Which it turns out people definitely still believe in today. They are from America and Germany, but also Ireland and Kazakstan, dozens of countries. They have swatzika tattoos, and cross tattoos, and bisexual pride flag tattoos. They are white, but they are also black, asian, latinx, mixed race. They are Evangelical, they are Catholic, they are atheists, they are all religions. They are all ages. They share the same viral posts you share, they laugh at the same memes you laugh at (although they do have a strange love of frogs). They work manual labor jobs in rural areas, driving trucks, but they also wear suits and live in the city and work in politics. They are diverse. They are “woke.”
I’m just so disgusted by what I’ve seen today.
The thing about anti-Semitism is that it can be transferred to just about any ideology: jews are communists or they’re bourgeois, they want to stay separate, they want to assimilate, they want to maintain their own boundaries but still take a part in community affairs.
It really stinks, and please feel free to stop by anytime for some Jewish solidarity.
And anyone can stop by anytime for any solidarity about any form of hate.
The fine results of sixty years of demonizing Israel’s governmental policies.
Hey you know what? I think you probably mean well, but no, antisemitism is not about Israel, and saying that it is gives antisemites a lot of ammunition (“I don’t hate Jews; I just have a problem with the Israeli government!”).

Sixty years?! Sixty years is nothing.
Antisemitism is one of the oldest forms of bigotry that still exists, and it exists in largely the same form that it always has. Non-Jews persecute Jews because we refuse to assimilate, because we emphasize literacy and education, and because we are an ethnic minority. These thousands of years of violent murder, torture, expulsion, exile, and degradation have nothing whatsoever to do with the modern State of Israel.
Antisemitism, much like the original post highlighted, transcends modern politics. It transcends most modern cultural divides.
Antisemitism is religious bigotry and racial hatred all rolled into one, and virtually no group on Earth has clean hands.
How the FUCK is this list so long. What the fuck. What the Fuck. How is there SO MUCH HATRED for them what the Actual Fuck
like what did Jewish people ever do to you????? like seriously???? like I understand animosity. I have some strong personal hatred for individuals and some disdain for a group of people (billionaires) but even if someone did do something to me, that is absolutely not grounds for maiming or irreparably harming or killing them, much less killing their family, their friends, their friends’ families, and anyone else that shares a particular association with them!!!! like what the actual shit?????
edit: I will however gladly throw the FUCK down with anyone who wants to hurt jewish people for being jewish
Hi!
A lot of it is/was motivated by money. Yes, even the holocaust.
The justification for hating is classically based in the Christian religion, but antisemitism is now definitely also political. It’s about blaming everything on us and having a scapegoat.
But the motivation? Money. Pogroms, expulsions, killings, all of these were and are forms of real estate and property liquidation.
If anyone who is unfamiliar with historical and modern antisemitism and how it functions and wants to educate themselves as an ally, I recomend reading the book Why the Jews?. Some of the language is a bit outdated but it’s a short and informative introduction to the topic. It is an emotionally difficult read though, so keep that in mind before cracking it open
