"Do you want a boyfriend/girlfriend?" no i want a best friend/roommate/soulmate that I can go on silly adventures with and hang out with and have deep intellectual discussions with and we can be life partners without any of the romance stuff
Didgori Battle Memorial is located on top of the Didgori mountain, Georgia. It was designed in the 90s by sculptor Merab Berdzenishvili and architect Tamaz Gabunia to commemorate the battle of Didgori fought in 1121. The monument consists of a number of massive sculptures of swords embedded in the ground, which can be interpreted as cemetery crosses.

Hi I was today years old when I realized some people truly don’t have to think about every single thing they do. They don’t have to have an imaginary set of rules (I’m not allowed to put on my bra until I’ve brushed my teeth) to function.
I DON’T UNDERSTAND US SOMETIMES ???
One day I had to lie on the floor to reach something that fell under the couch and after I retrieved the item I just. Stayed there. For like half an hour
Felt great
i need to clip through the floor like bethesda made me
yes. even more so.

I love how Tumblr talks about gender as though it’s a substance of which it’s possible to possess a particular amount. Just a dash of gender. The recipe calls for three cups of gender. An overturned tanker truck on the #3 highway has spilled 20 000 litres of gender.
Me before this post: See this picture of a kobold? This is a gender.
Me after this post: *slaps kobold jpeg* this bad boy can hold SO much gender,
Digging up old photos for fashion research and found this dELIGHTFUL photograph.
I love this man and his tiny donkey.
that is the face of a man that says “If i don’t hold the baby he is going to do terrible shenanigans to the camera setup before the plates develop”
this man has seen his donkey do THINGS
I love when dogs and cats just let you pat the shit out of them and they enjoy it so much. Like yeah dude real quick I just need to play you like a bongo and they’re like god yes I’ve been waiting for someone to play me like a bongo
every day i look at the sink and i’m like seriously? honest to god i have used dishes once again?
this post is not for people frustrated by ppl putting dishes in their communal sink bc “oh i would NEVER leave a dish in the sink.” fuck off you already have your life together you don’t need this post. this is for the slimes and losers whose sinks are filled with the dishes of their own creation. this is for the lazy women, the useless men, the pathetic enbies. get out of here you sparkling clean dished heathens
These other assholes: Oh I hate leaving a mess. Cleaning up actually helps me unwind!
My ADHD executive-dysfunctional fuckin goblin self: I have to perform a TASK? But I just performed a task YESTERDAY!
Some people simply do not understand the profoundly Sisyphean torment that is cleaning things.
Dishes.
Clothes.
House.
Self.
IT DOESN’T MATTER HOW OFTEN YOU DO IT, YOU’RE GOING TO HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN. DOPAMINE PAYOFF IS ZERO, THE TASK IS NEVER COMPLETED AND YOU’RE NOT ALLOWED TO STOP DOING IT EVER IN YOUR WHOLE LIFE.

When I grow up I wanna be upper middle class.
I want like… a condo. And enough money to go on vacation sometimes. And maybe a mug.
bro look at thrift stores or garage sale for mugs
i once got a set of four cat mugs for a dollar. one of the best days of my life so far
Maybe I’m tired of going to thrift stores for mugs. Maybe I’m tired of the $5 target mugs. Maybe I want a really nice mug. Not like five hundred nice mugs. Just like… one or two would be nice. You know? Maybe I’d hang one on my wall. I think I’d like that. Owning a wall.
@what-even-is-thiss
Go to any streets that close for art events, you’ll find at least 1 good potter selling their wares there
I got the cup I use for my bathroom at Las Olas, Florida for their art fair a few years back, it was like $15ish but the potter had a set all in the same color combo of a bowl, 2 sized plates and 2 different mugs. I just wanted the one small cup but I’ve got the card somewhere
At the same art fair a year or two later a different potter was there selling his stuff and that’s who I got one of my tea mugs from for like again $15isb
Again, people are misunderstanding my actual desires represented by the mug.
There you go.
Every time we go into a Big Fancy Houseware shop just to browse, I stare wistful at the mugs. “We have enough mugs” I will say. But I know I my heart that all the mugs at home are mismatched and old, or secret Santa gifts from across the years. None of them have been purchased solely for the joy of buying a fancy new mug.
Like you could even go to the clearance aisle for mugs. The change of seasons always brings new and interesting things. OR A GOODWILL TRIP? Holy shit this person is going on and on about expensive ass mugs when what you really need in life is to not fall into the trap that capitalism has inevitably laid for all of us that makes us believe wholeheartedly that the only happiness we will find in life is the ability to purchase expensive things and to own expensive things
Go green and try to re-thrift for shit that’s so trivial it takes one slip of the hand to watch it completely fall to pieces
I made this post over a year ago now and inevitably whenever it gains more traction someone will pop up completely misunderstanding me, not understanding that I’d just like to be comfortable. I don’t actually want advice on how to acquire mugs. I own a couple of mugs. I’d just like to be able to have some security. Maybe a pool. Maybe I’d like to own a small amount of property. A condo, maybe. I’d like to be able to travel. You’ll notice that nobody here is giving advice on how to acquire a condo or a vacation. They’re just taking the mug part seriously. All I wanted to do was fantasize about a world where I don’t live in a studio apartment that takes up half of my paycheck in rent alone and maybe I have a stupid white dad device mounted on the wall to showcase my mug collection. Can everyone just shut the hell up about telling me how to acquire mugs? I don’t care about the traps of consumerism! I just wanna be able to afford to visit my aunts sometimes! And so what if I do want an expensive mug? That’s my goddamn business.
This is a perfect summary of what it’s like for try to communicate any idea that can’t fit neatly into a single sentence on Tumblr Dot Com.
Those “curtains were just blue” memes did irreparable damage to society.
Keep reading
Communication is so wild though like you can spend hours thinking someone is mad at you and then when you ask what’s up they’re like “yeah my mom really pissed me off earlier” and it turns out you were just assuming it was about you. And now you don’t have to carry that stress anymore
Or you could finally work up the nerve to be like “hey I’m not a huge fan of this thing we do together” and the other person is just like thank god I also don’t like that thing. And then neither of you have to do it anymore
OR even crazier, you can be like “I’m having this problem and idk what to do about it” and they’re like “what about this?” and they just solve the entire thing and you realize again how smart and clever your friends are
Mindblowing every time
If I do something good because it makes me feel like a good person, is that technically selfish?
no, only if you're choosing to make others suffer to make yourself feel good
enjoying making other people happy is a great thing
There is a Jewish story about a wealthy man who came to his rabbi and said “I have decided to build an orphanage, can you put me in touch with the relevant people”
The rabbi was delighted to do it, and introduced the man to some charities. After a few weeks, the man came back to the rabbi.
“I have decided not to build the orphanage,” he said. “I realised that I was only doing it because I wanted to be admired as a philanthropist, my motives were selfish.”
The rabbi answered, “do you think the orphans will care what your motives were? Build the orphanage!”
this... makes a very good point.
According to ongoing studies into happiness in the psych department at Berkeley, making yourself happy by making other people happy is how it’s meant to work
I feel like this is such a common idea, and I just want to extrapolate it to its logical conclusion. If it is wrong to make others happy or do objectively charitable things when it also makes you happy, then in this moral model, you are MEANT to be miserable. Not only is your own happiness weighted negatively, it’s given such a large weight that your unhappiness is more important than the happiness of many others. So the most moral thing anyone can do is actively make themselves unhappy, with no regard for anyone else. That is… not a world I want to live in.
It's ass backwards is what it is.
