I’ve made this post like six times but it still fucks me up the China’s mountains just look like that. Like I spent decades thinking it was stylistic but no, they just have different mountains over there.

For reference, here’s what my local mountains look like:

Here’s the general art style Chinese mountains are drawn in:

And here’s how some of them actually look:

I’m specifically reblogging this here because I know there is a geological reason for this and I know at least one of you has to know it.

I don't necessarily agree that Susie Deltarune having a YA fantasy bildungsroman arc while literally everyone she knows is an active suicide risk is a genre disconnect, per se, since a lot of YA fantasy is genuinely Like That, but I'll grant that we don't usually see it from this particular angle.

Kris: I feel intensely alienated from the people around me, everything I do is constricted by several layers of obligation and whenever I try regain some tiny degree of agency over myself it's actively killing me

Noelle: I feel so stuck in place and unable to deviate from the role I've been assigned that I'm willing to literally kill myself just to prove I can change something about my life

Susie: Even if it's scary, I have to learn to make friends and be myself, and to hope for a better future!

Ralsei: I can't allow myself to think of myself as truly alive because otherwise I will never be able to cope with the knowledge that I'll never get to live the life I want to live

[mimosa-sexypeople-contests-2026]

If you don’t support nonbinary people, then get the fuck away from my blog

[mimosa-sexypeople-contests-2026]

Besides it’d be really weird if I didn’t support nonbinary people considering that I’m agender

GLaDOS voice: "Would you like to see some artwork I generated? I've heard from other test subjects that AI-generated artwork produces an uncanny valley response in human viewers because they can't perceive it as fully real. They've told me that it looks absolutely hideous to them, that they can't imagine anything more disgusting than AI art. But, well I've been practicing and wanted your honest opinion. Feel free to let me know how ugly you find this by ranking it on a scale from 'vomit-inducing' to 'eye-bleeding'." A robotic arm lowers from the ceiling holding a hand mirror up to Chell's face

Trying to find an old tumblr post I used to see a lot.

It started with someone listing "places with uncanny energy," like gas stations on a road trip, empty movie theaters, etc.

Then someone reblogged it and said those are called "liminal spaces," defining liminal as in-between, neither one thing nor another.

It was the first time I'd seen the term "liminal" applied to places like that, and it's driving me crazy, I want to find and put a date on it so bad.

NEVER MIND, I FOUND IT!!!

Holy shit I just realized:

Tomorrow (July 4th, 2026) is the 10 year anniversary of the-crepes-of-wrath's comment, which:

Predates the 2020 spike in interest by four years

Predates the original backrooms post, and the the creation of r/liminalspaces by three years

Predates the earliest mention that KnowYourMeme attributes to Twitter by two years

I'm pretty sure this is the moment the term "liminal spaces" was attached to this sort of imagery, and it's TEN YEARS OLD TOMORROW!

LIMINAL SPACES TURN TEN TOMORROW! CELEBRATE BY GETTING LOST IN AN ABANDONED MALL!

“You’re still on tumblr?” say people who dont even realize their current TikTok/xitter trends are regurgitated 10 year old tumblr shitposts.

I’m not trying to turn your kids trans; that’s stupid. I’m trying to turn them into socialists.

you do either of those and the thousand fish guy is going to buy the rights to the fish in the river/lake to ensure no one else can get fish without paying them $1 trillion and then buy a newspaper to explain condescendingly that if you wanted fish you should have cut back on coffee for the last thirty years

one genre of fanfiction that seems to have mostly disappeared since i became an adult is shenanigans-type fics. like not exactly crack but just "the gang goes to 7-11" type, extremely low-stakes plot stories. the beach episodes of fanfiction. i just feel like i don't see those around so much anymore. whered they go. i miss them :(

[hugsohugs]

i've had multiple people on this post say i've inspired them to make more of these kinds of fics which makes me really happy. be the change you want to see in the world

binder companies need to post ads for fat big busted trans guys and not just skinny androgynous twinks with body fat percentages in the single digits and yes im serious

I love how Zohran Mamdani is wearing a suit everywhere. And if he has anything else he puts it ON TOP of the suit. A basketball jersey. A high-vis vest. All worn over the suit. He’s like the mayor character in a cartoon who’s always dressed as The Mayor. If I didn’t know who he was and he biked past me in NYC I’d be like holy shit was that the mayor
