My mom who worked in HR and people management for years approves.

I might take off the last sentence cause I'm afraid of confrontation and that's the point where you lose plausible deniability about being passive aggressive, but otherwise it seems like it might be worth a shot?

Also feels like my field is too small to pull this, word would spread too fast

[reallyreallyreallytrying]

animals are celebrities to children. children are like "i love this guy" when they see an animal

[todaysbird]

serious birdwatchers are like this too. they will be losing their absolute goddamn minds over a rare sighting which to everyone else is like. a generic seagull

[gayteensupreme]

Btw if I say things like “by god” or “good lord” in posts please be aware I don’t mean it in a catholic way I mean it in a 1950s scientist reacting in horror after they create an evil creature in the lab set in the distant future year of 2005

io che nonostante sia atea dica “grazie agli dei” e simili perché si io non credo in niente ma miliardi di persone hanno religioni e dei differenti ed io non voglio far sentire escluso nessuno

[gayteensupreme]

im frankly lucky the above reblog is about how theyre an atheist because there is nothing more terrifying than saying something slightly blasphemous and seeing a paragraph of italian in your replies

REBLOG IF YOU WANT TUMBLR SILLYGUYS TO BE THE NEXT BIG THING

[libraryjournal]

[signal-failure]

Person with housemates can study.

Person who has spent all their cash on rent and food still has a place to get out of the house and do something interesting.

Cool community classes and community art shows.

ESL tutoring.

Tax prep and forms.

[talixagain]

tbh fuck anyone who says a single bad thing about libraries

[diplotomodon]

Not content I normally reblog but libraries are super important and our world would be diminished without them.

[smallswingshoes]

The library was how I was able to read so many books as a kid that my parents wouldn’t have been able to afford.

[insomination]

Libraries are one of the only places on Earth that treats people the same no matter how much money you have. We can’t lose that.

Twitter users are defending their right to assume Picasso was a renaissance artist. Tiktok users think watching any film made outside the US makes you a snob. “Replace classic lit with YA and fan fiction” discourse is flourishing. I think we’re just living in anti intellectual times.

[yyyyddmmsupremacy-deactivated20]

it's not anti-intellectualism it's anti-snobbery

[mercuryfountain-deactivated2024]

Let me ask you this: how many “snobs” have you actually met? Because I have met many people who take interest in art history, watch vintage film or films from films from outside the US (which by the way are not all “arthouse” films), or read and cherish historically and culturally significant literature. But I have never met anyone who will treat me like I’m a bad person for watching Mama Mia or just wanting to be entertained once in a while. I have, however, met people who think art history is stupid and pointless and that those who study it deserve to live in poverty, who are xenophobic and dismissive toward any art made outside the US (or western Europe for that matter), or roll their eyes at people who read literature they consider boring because they’ve never given it a try. In fact, most of the people I know who you would consider “snobs” out of projected insecurity are cautious to bring up their interests because they think they’ll be made fun of. Is anti intellectualism “anti elitist?” At times, but it’s the sort of pseudo populism that fits comfortably within contemporary right wing discourse. Have you paid any attention to politics the last decade or so? If you are allergic to culture and new information, fine. Just don’t claim the moral high ground for it.

you could have just asked for her wig instead of snatching it like that

[allenbyseyes-deactivated2023102]

We live in a time when a popular TikToker produces videos saying that the Roman Empire literally did not exist, a shocking number of people believe the Earth is flat, oh and let’s not forget that millions of people died because they trusted Jenny McCarthy and Donald Trump’s medical opinions over trained scientists. The problem with the world right now is not “snobbery.”

[powerburial]

if youre sad about something you can say "eh whatre ya gonna do" in an italian voice and it instantly cures you 100% of the time

[plum-soup]

Yeah, this is why most Italians don’t have any mental health issues at all, not even in the slightest

[powerburial]

This is so real thank you for tagging me bestie

[ex-riddlecats]

i think everybody needs to shave their head at least once in their life. especially if youre scared of getting an ugly haircut or something. get it buzzed and youll freak out for a week maybe but eventually get used to it and enjoy the lack of maintenance and then when it grows out you can try new styles without any anxiety bc now youre cool with shaving it all as a fall back plan. this has been a buzzcut propaganda post

[givemeursocialsecurity]

My sister said she doesn't think I could pull off a shaved or bald head but she did agree then that means she forfeits the right to rag on me for being vain or insecure if I ever get hair transplants
