Existential Crisis Ahoy @dragon-on-ice - Tumblr Blog

Just so we’re clear, movies that are only 15 years old do not need a remake. And movies that are only 10 years old definitely don’t need a remake

And most movies never need a remake!

But Tumblr says this will build engagement; and Tumblr is an honorable site.

(feel free to reblog this any way you want, if you want.)

Friends, tumblerinas, feigalach of all kinds, lend me your ear. I come to mourn the reblog chain, not to praise her

The good that features do, is mentioned after them. Their frustrating parts are oft intered with their bones, so let it be, with the reblog chain

The noble tumblr had told you the reblog chain denied engagement. If it were so, it was a grievous fault, and grievously the reblog chain paid for it

Here, under leave of tumblr and its @staff, for tumblr is an honorable site, so are its staff, honorable in their help, come I to speak, at the reblog chain's final moments

She was a good feature. Simple, and engaging to me, but tumblr says it denied engagement and tumblr is an honorable site

It had brought many memes to the world, who's sharing did the userbase grow, did this, in the reblog chain, deny engagement?

When that the meme did flop, the reblog chain had not notes! Engagement denial should be made of lesser stuff, yet tumblr says it denied engagement and tumblr is an honorable site

You all did see that in the last 3 years thrice users of other sites flocked to it, and thrice they had not stayed because opening Tumblr for the first time sucks, and absolutely never for the reblog chain, but tumblr says it did deny engagement, and Tumblr, is an honorable site

I speak not to disprove what tumblr spoke, but here I am to speak what I do know.

You all did love her once, not without cause: What cause withholds you then, to mourn for her? O judgment! thou art fled to brutish beasts, And @changes have lost their reason. Bear with me; my heart is in the coffin there with the reblog chain, and I must pause till it come back to me.

people will say “they’re only friends” and then show me two people who would crawl through broken glass to hear the other laugh once. two people who have memorized each other’s coffee orders, fears, childhood stories, and emergency contacts. two people who would haunt each other’s houses as ghosts. be serious.

scribeherself

Just an FYI—the original intention of this post was to challenge the way people say only friends, as though friendship is somehow lesser than other forms of love. As if being deeply known, cherished, and chosen by another person could ever be a small thing. Normalize profound platonic love. Some of the most fulfilling, transformative, and enduring relationships we will ever have are friendships. 🫶🏼

The organizer of a rally in support of mass deportations on Monday said the rally is about enforcing existing laws, not promoting violence.

LONG POST BUT IMPORTANT, SO FORGIVE ME I've been meaning to make this post for awhile, but I've been so demoralized just thinking about it so I kept putting it off. This Saturday, August 1st, Greg. Fucking. Bovino. of overseeing Minneapolis immigration murders and shitty nazi cosplay fame, is coming to Fishers, IN- MY CITY. He's going to be a keynote speaker at Save Heritage Indiana's "Mass Deportation Rally" (Along with Micah Beckwith, our Lt Gov and pedophile-befriending pastor.) "The event begins at 7 p.m. on Aug. 1. Poynter said for security reasons, attendees will not learn the exact location until shortly beforehand," and I have heard (unverified) that they've actually been struggling to find a venue to host them. These sensitive manbaby fucks KNOW what they're doing is unpopular. (*Additional note- apparently seats are invite-only and $50 a head, OR you can pay $500 to have dinner with Bovino. 🙃)

THAT BEING SAID- several local groups, including local Indivisible groups, Food Not Bombs, Indy Resistance, Somos Latinos, and several more are hosting a HOOSIER HOSPITALITY MARCH.

The point is to bring people together in support of our immigrant neighbors and show strength in numbers. It's from 3-6pm on the same day (this Saturday.) The route takes the march by the Al Huda Mosque where people are encouraged to bring non-perishables for their food pantry, and ends in a vigil for those taken and murdered by ICE and DHS.

I REALLY want people to attend.

I plan on showing up with my D&D group and some wagons filled with whistle kits, gatorade, and snacks to make sure people stay hydrated.

If you live within, like, a 2 hour drive of central Indiana, PLEASE consider bringing some friends and attending. I so badly want the march to overwhelm my city.

If you can't attend but want to help or contribute in some way, feel free to donate via my ko-fi. I will be using donations to fund snacks, waterbottles, first aid kits, etc. to bring to the march. Anything in addition will be donated to the mosque!

ICE is opening an office about 15 minutes away from me. Since learning about it, this image has been lurking in my mind and I had to get it

The image above is PWYW, so you can donate through there and get a high res of this image to do with as you please in exchange!

Anyway, thanks for listening. Please consider spreading the word.

I saw this video about a doctor who performed an MRI on a 5 year old and discovered she essentially had “brain damage” from excessive iPad use, as the white matter in her brain couldn’t form properly due to an understimulated environment.

Hmm it’s almost like there’s supposed to be adult figures responsible for monitoring her screen time and making sure she develops properly… certainly this isn’t the result of neglect at the hands of her parents…

rottingtrouble-child

“This 5 year old is brain damaged by excessive iPad use”

Translation: This 5 year old is developmentally impaired by neglectful parents who used an iPad as a stand-in for social and environmental stimulation / interaction for hours at a time during critical early stages of child development. The iPad is the cop-out.

rottingtrouble-child

“Children don’t have the strength to hold pencils anymore because they only use screens.”

Translation: Parents aren’t making the conscious effort to help their children develop necessary skills and letting iPads raise them.

When are people going to realize the iPads and whatnot are the instruments through which the neglect is happening through and not the cause? How the fuck do you let your child have such a severe lack of physical strength in their hands that they can’t hold a pencil properly?

rottingtrouble-child

People will see a study suggesting children with higher screen times have poorer or negative developmental outcomes and immediately say it’s the screens causing this, and not the more likely fact that higher screen time = less engagement time with their environment, physical exercise, parents, family, and their peers, all of which are NECESSARY for a healthy upbringing as a social species.

It’s like saying a dog who was kept in a cage all its life and left with atrophied muscles was damaged by the cage, and not by the fact its owners were too lazy to play or walk their dog in order for its muscles to build properly. The cage is the instrument of neglect and the owners are the perpetrators, in the same way parents are the perpetrators and weaponizing screen time as an excuse and painting themselves as helpless bystanders.
