During the late 2000s/early 2010s I regularly worked at artist alley for cons like Anime Expo.

It was PEAK Homestuck popularity but I had no idea what it was…

So I saw folks in solid color shirts with “weird symbols” on them and thought everyone was wearing Legends of the Hidden Temple team shirts.

This is what peak cosplay looks like

this is my first time in the pacific northwest. we drove through a forest so wet and foggy you couldn’t see the bends in the road ten yards ahead of you and it straight up felt like a horror game until we emerged into a sunny valley with a rainbow over it and then we went to a taco bell and in it there was a guy dressed like a hot dog and a guy dressed like hamburger. is it all like this

Critical support to these scammers weaponizing homophobia to drain right-wingers' bank accounts 🫡

I took my little brother (autistic, mostly non verbal) out and he was using his voice keyboard to tell me something, and this little boy (maybe 4 or 5?) heard him and asked me "Is he a robot??" I tried to explain to him that no, he isn't a robot, he just communicates differently, but my darling brother was in the background max volume "I am robot I am robot I am robot I am robot"

[marian-devotee]

My little brother insisted if I was going to post about him, he wanted a cut of the "profits". When I explained to him that Tumblr isn't monetized, and is pretty pointless, he and my older brother pointed out that he'd still be bringing me "fame and notoriety" if the post got "big". So we agreed, if the post hit 10k notes, which seemed extremely farfetched and silly at the time, I'd take my little brother out for sushi (his favorite food) and let him eat as much as he wants.

I guess God wanted the little robot to enjoy some sushi 🍣 🥲

awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?

[manu-script]

i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users

[smadsel]

would be remiss not to mention that the rainbow notably straight up just removed the trans flag colors from it. like they’re gone. it’s the progress flag minus the trans flag colors.

[smadsel]

that’s not the whole flag, now is it

[manu-script]

hey staff what the fuck

[villainessbian]

hey staff don't you think you're being too on-the-nose

Y bueno. 🙏 empeze a matar personas,

Also. 🙏 Ich hab angefangen Leute umzubringen,,

The other night husband and I were watching a documentary about the yeti where they were doing DNA analysis of samples of supposed yeti fur, and every one of them came back as bears.

Anyway, the next night we watched a thing about some pig man who is supposed to live in Vermont. People said it had claws and a pig nose but walked upright like a man. Now, I happen to know that sideshows used to shave bears and present them as pig men. So every piece of evidence they gave of this monster sounds to me like a bear with mange.

So now the running joke in our house is that everything is bears. Aliens? Bears. Loch Ness monster? Bear. Every cryptozoological mystery is just a very crafty bear.

Bears. They’re everywhere. Be wary. Anyone or anything could be a bear.

As the OP of this post, I’m going to threaten that if this gets to one million notes by the 10 year anniversary on 1 June 2026, one year from today, I will get a lower back tattoo of the loch ness bear monster.

Boyfriend and I got distracted watching dimension 20 City Council of Darkness by the town having 18,000 people which would make it one of the most populous cities in oregon, by a lot. Well within the top 50 cities in the whole state

Strange observation: Kinger from The Amazing Digital Circus looks like The Old Man of the Lake, a weird log floating in Crater Lake near Wizard Island.

The Old Man of the Lake is carbon dated to be like 450 years old and has been floating perfectly vertically since at least 1938. When people mess with it, the weather gets fucked up.
