-i say this in the following dot point also but charlie brooker is my other biggest obsession as of right now and also the past like year now. i could talk about him for literal hours
-right now my other biggest obsession is comedy stuff, especially would i lie to you & of course david mitchell + lee mack. and i’m also insanely obsessed with charlie brooker for reasons that are at this point a bit hard to explain but please feel free to ask me about literally anything comedy related i would be overjoyed
(p.s. if you see me talking about a “cb” or “charlie” or just “brooker” then im talking about charlie brooker, unless i’ve specified otherwise. i do that cos i don’t wanna clog up the search results *too* much lol)
-franz ferdinand is one of my other biggest obsessions. please please ask me about them i am sosososo autistic abt them. (to clarify i mean rhe band)
-also I LIKE TO DRAW!! my art + my other creations (ie. gifs and the like) are all under the “#my art” tag on this blog if you wanna have a look
rn im also into northern exposure (currently rewatching it!) and nirvan(n)a the band the show (+ various other associated pieces of media)
more interests, my ao3, my websites, other accounts and sort of ‘dni’ below the cut!
*slenderman voice* decorate my tree
💥‼️currently very obsessed with franz ferdinand (again the band not the guy), comedy in general & the show ‘would i lie to you’ (but especially these folks: david mitchell, lee mack and charlie brooker + the series ‘the trip’) (also MANY different tv comedies and comedians and so on), horror stuff, saw, homestuck, aaaaand mormonism + jehovahs witnesses (I DO NOT SUPPORT EITHER!! they are both cults and i merely have an interest in how they function and things related to them as a whole)‼️💥 + more listed below
i post and rb about a variety of things but mainly homestuck, camp here and there, spn, the last dragon chronicles, house md, comedy, as well as fob, mcr, franz ferdinand and a variety of other music adjacent things 👍
- ‼️ i like to rpf post i like to read rpf and i like to draw rpf ‼️ if youre uncomfortable with rpf that is a-okay and i understand & respect that, i’m still happy to be mutuals provided you arent like. a jerk or whatever lol. i’m also super interested in the concept of rpf itself and the relationships between fiction & reality, creator & audience, etc. so like if you wanna have a discussion about rpf (no matter your opinion on it) i’d be very happy to oblige!
^ note that i am NOT a genuine tinhatter and all rpf-style things i say are firmly in the realm of fiction, even if i like to talk like i believe it irl ultimately i respect that i don’t know these people and it’s not my place to make genuine assumptions about their personal lives
ao3 is driftwoodGrockles ! i have three (3) fics including a tldc ending rewrite you should totally read it
you can see my strawpage here ‼️ and also my franz ferdinand infodumping site here 👍

throughout the late 2000s and early 2010s, our generation was inundated with aave. it eclipsed lolcat as the "funny way to talk." ain't nobody got time fo dat turns into dat boi o shit waddup. this is blatantly not an "aracial" or "gen z" way to talk. it IS black english. not to mention the amount of black reaction images!!
WHY, specifically, is it black peoples' facial expressions that are seen as just so comical or exaggerated? analyze the history of this nation's comedy and tell me why you might be predisposed to thinking of black peoples' faces as just, "more emotive" or exaggeratedly funny than a white or nonblack person's
and throughout those years, 00s-10s, many black bloggers -- victims of the mass staff-led purge (under the cover of them being 'russian' while reichblr still exists) -- they DID tell us it was a problem, DID try to educate people who freak out at the insinuation of 'being racist,' DID argue, DID point out the duplicity and the appropriation and the gross equivalence of african american slang with unintelligence, goofiness, etc. and they were ignored, abused, cancelled, chased off, until being eventually mass deleted by our racist transmisogynistic staff.
we didn't do enough, and the generation after us gen z "kids" didn't stop the trend. using the '-ahh' suffix. rizz. no cap. ate. delulu. it's giving. it's serving. crash out. lock in. aura. tea. main character. bruh. slay. real. keep it 100.
all of the following images are or were popular reaction images! what do they all have in common?
it feels like the effort to categorize slang as AAVE and not 'gen z' or 'gen alpha' slang has really petered out. it feels like we stopped talking about digital blackface in an era where the administration is posting ai-generated videos of black women who speak and act like exaggerated stereotypes and it frustrates me because we all have a responsibility to understand our generation's role in normalizing this type of racist shit for kids today. this needs to be addressed!
Black people will never stop talking about this, but when we are on sites such as Tumblr, where so many of the white people feel that not only are they not racist, but that calling their racist behavior racist is emotional warfare on them, they will make sure to keep Black voices as silenced as possible.
Also, a lot of the Black people who got deleted or run off of the site weren't even accused of any type of Russian anything. A lot of them were just run the fuck off by the white Tumblr base on harassment shit.

omfg wait before i go actually do my hw. the other part of my dream last night was seeing a nirvanna the band the show easter special on tv. i distinctly remember jared being fully visible and wearing an aqua hawaiian shirt, and also there being a ton of other people there who i did not recognise at all. it was like 3 minutes long and started with a logo thing saying it was a “multi-media podcast” despite the fact it looked and sounded nothing like a podcast
calling a mutual by their name and having to check you're right like omg what if they transitioned and changed their name in the twelve hours since i last saw them on my dash
