btw if you havent seen tommy's tweet about this review he found of his book then you have to read it i actually died

[daddynietzsche]

throwback to that time in my existentialism class where the professor asked ‘who thinks hell is other people’ and half the class slowly and meekly put their hand up

then the prof was like ‘…i mean who originally said it’

[annabellioncourt]

there are some posts that sound utterly made up for the joke or for the notes, but this one I whole heartedly believe 

[kurloz38]

Sounds right to me…

[jadagul]

That quote is amazing to me in that it’s quoted completely accurately and yet in a way that means something completely different from what it meant in context.

(Sartre was claiming that Hell was other people. He was not claiming that other people were hell.)

[sigmaleph]

…I can’t actually tell what distinction you’re drawing there. Can you expand?

[jadagul]

The line comes from No Exit, which is set in Hell. Spoilers for No Exit follow

In particular, three people who have been condemned to hell are trapped eternally in a room together. And at first they think they got off easy without any pitchforks or fiery lakes or anything. But over the course of the play they discover that they have been chosen very specifically to have neuroses and character flaws that interact with and torment each other.

Each one needs the approval of a second in an unstable RPS cycle so that any time one of them might be satisfied by a second, the third swoops in and ruins it.

And when they figure this out, one of the characters expresses his understanding, that hell isn’t physical torture. “Hell is just—other people.”

So the point isn’t that other people, generically, are hellish; it’s rather that you can build a hell out of other people.

But when I hear people quote it, it’s usually sort of an introvert-pride thing. “Other people are hell; you should spend time alone.” And that’s not the point at all. It’s a statement about how bad unhealthy relationships can be, not a statement about how all relationships are unhealthy!

See also Sartre’s own comment here:

“hell is other people” has always been misunderstood. It has been thought that what I meant by that was that our relations with other people are always poisoned, that they are invariably hellish relations. But what I really mean is something totally different. I mean that if relations with someone else are twisted, vitiated, then that other person can only be hell.

Reblogging for the original post which was hilarious and also for that explanation which is beautiful

[tsahdz]

even when noxite isn’t spectating dream (surprisingly), don’t worry, the other admins certainly have their eyes glued

(attempt at a transcript of the admins’ reactions to dream’s run under cut)

*hiss through teeth* “oh, dream!!”

“oh, dream’s going crazy”

(in reply) “yeah, i’m watching dream’s”

“oh, dream’s getting to a really cool room!”

“oh, god, dream.”

*several of the admins shriek, sigh, or intake breaths as they react to dream’s plays*

*in chat, an admin is seen teleporting to spectate dream*

“yo, i think green might be able to climb, dream’s risking so much, i mean, he’s doing it, he’s profiting”

(upon seeing that the green geckos have boosted to fourth place overall) “oh, green! they’re fourth now!”

“what?”

“what the hell! jesus”

“oh, it’s going to be a battle”

“if they get parkour tag, green has got to go absolute mental”

dream__fanart is definitely my favorite account, it has everything from the epic storytelling to the telenovela drama to completely cursed bullshit to really wholesome moments that made me glad to be part of the community<3

if the truman show was real and also existed in like 2022 i think people on here would call truman their poor little meow meow and they would make joke fancams of him to megan thee stallion songs and theyd draw him as a catboy and also that the discourse surrounding it would be legendary

K-Pop Spotlight: Stray Kids

Masks off everyone—Stray Kids’ newest mini-album ODDINARY is finally out and it’s time to embrace the maniac within. To celebrate the new release and their upcoming fourth anniversary, we caught up with the group to talk about their new album and single, MANIAC, and the challenges and fulfillment that come with accepting your most authentic self. As a little bonus, we also asked the members to design their own Tumblr blogs (just in case you needed some inspiration). Check out our full interview below!

Tell us about your new mini-album ODDINARY in three words or less, but there’s a catch—you can’t use the words odd or ordinary. 

Bang Chan: MANIACS ARE BACK!

Lee Know: Cool.

Changbin: Inner side, volcano, control.

Hyunjin: Super Power song.

HAN: Abnormal, freaky, potential are the three words that I think describe it best. We tried to describe the energy that explodes from our music in a different way this time, by slowly showing control over this energy. 

Felix: Maniac, unique, and dark.

Seungmin: Interesting, fascinating, capturing hearts.

I.N: Mania, abnormal, conceptual. 

Stray Kids’ music and concepts often encourage young people to be their most authentic selves regardless of other people’s opinions. How does ODDINARY fit into that narrative, and what do you hope your fans take away from it? 

Bang Chan: This might not apply to everyone, but I feel like many people have experienced moments where they’re told to act normal (yep, I’ve been through that). We wanted to emphasize that “standards” don’t matter and that you have the authority to let out the “oddness” that’s been sealed inside you all this time.

Changbin: ODDINARY is a compound word that combines “ordinary” and “odd,” meaning that everyone has a normal and slightly weird side. Listeners will be able to experience the everlasting honesty and truthfulness that Stray Kids’ music has always displayed, with the more crazy side that Stray Kids have. 

HAN: I hope that STAY and all listeners will be able to follow their hearts, rather than being confined by the judgment of others. I hope everyone also looks forward to the upgraded version of us. 

Seungmin: Whatever situation may come, I hope that everyone is able to live in their most honest, unique way with versatility while never forgetting who they truly are. I hope our music can become a small strength. 

Lightning round! You’re customizing your own Tumblr blog. Pick an aesthetic and a personal tag!

Bang Chan: Ooft… it’s hard to pick just one because my preferred aesthetics change depending on my mood. But if I had to pick one, it would be cyberpunk. The lights got me, and I’m a fanatic for futuristic stuff.

Lee Know: I want to decorate it using a clean, white tone.

Changbin: I want to use the tags #straykids, #stay, #stage, #music, which all mean a lot to Stray Kids.

Hyunjin: Vintage Tumblr, with #lovestay

HAN: I would like to decorate it like #black #chic to show a lot of calm yet cool atmosphere! I want to use the tags #black #chic #skz #loveyou #STAY.

Felix: #행복이 #felix 🐈‍⬛💛

Seungmin: #Seungtage. I really like vintage furniture and aesthetics, so I would like to decorate it using an organized brown tone.

I.N: I’m into vintage aesthetics these days, so I think I’ll go with vintage.

AITA for not letting my ex stay with me after he died?

Ok. I know how that sounds but it’s more complicated than that, I (21X) met my ex(25M)—let’s call him A— several years ago and we hit it off, friends for years until we started dating for a brief stint. Now here’s where things get complicated. He cheats on me, and understandably I get pissed, join the cult that traumatized him just to piss him off, get possessed and steal some nonfunctional keycards from the prison he built. I don’t really know why I did it. I was pissed/emotional/I wanted to see if he still loved me at all. The answer was no I guess because he killed me, tortured me for several hours and cut off my arm. So yeah. Fast-forward a year-ish and karma has caught him rough, I open my door to find him teary-eyed and covered in blood telling me “P, I was killed by D I have no where to go. You have to help me” etc etc. I kinda felt bad but I slammed the door in his face. He thinks he can come to me after all that? Total asshole. But his FWB and “therapist” have called Me an asshole for not letting him in. So I’m taking this here. AITA for not letting my ex in after he died?

Edit: thanks for the gold. I guess. Also not this isn’t fake. No I’m not still in a cult. Yes he really cut off my arm.

Edit: I let him in. He can’t go to jail because he ran the only functioning one and…yeah. I still kinda love him idk.

Edit: I’m not in a cult. I’m not fucking Amish OR Mormon! I’m actually a worshipper of oogway. Pls do your research before saying stupid shit. Thanks for the support.

Motherfuckers kidnapped the real Michael MONTHS ago and replaced him with Nichael and when Eret noticed he sent a message on discord about it and they stood quiet with their little secret making Sam and Eret believe it had been a glitch. I’m-

something about dream having said before he feels alienated from the minecraft community especially after the speedrunning thing. yet he drops EVERYTHING to give back even if he doesn’t think he’s accepted there because he loves it and he loves people and he sees his advantage and wants to use it to the best he possibly can. i love him so much and his ability to love despite being so hated.
