Hot Mess @hot-messy-edi - Tumblr Blog

Hey, so... not that anybody cares... but Tumblr has been my home for a long long time... I love it... it shows me so much!

Sadly, I keep getting sad and mad and angry and frustrated, and I keep trying to fight, but it's all in vain...

People around me tell me to get used to it... things are like this and thats it... so... I guess That's what I will do...

The world wont be better as long as there are bilionaires on one side, and people who die of starvation on the other...

The world won't be good while there is greed...

Thw hunger for more and more and more... it's exhausting...

So I quit...

I will delete all social media and try to be ignorant, but less depressed... away from sight, away from the heart, that's what they say...

It does break my heart though... I will miss Tumblr...

Maybe I'll be back someday... once I become used to be a slave to society...

I just need to get used to it...

I quit from the fight, you guys...

Transcript: "This might sound like a hot take, but I feel like the Internet's obsession with uniqueness is causing legitimate brain rot in some people.

There's no reason why something like mental illness, for example, should be turned into this commodity where you like, get internet points or social currency by being different.

It's like, by trying to break the stigma, we've just come full circle, where now nobody knows what the hell any of these words actually mean.

So when you explain what a panic attack is, people are like "Oh, like that's like actually really scary." & "Not something I just experienced when I couldn't get Taylor Swift tickets".

And I know this is going to piss some people off so just brace yourself, but I see it the most in fellow white people - Especially people that are like upper-middle-class.

Look, I'm just gonna say it: whiteness gives us access to everything but oppression. That's the one thing we can't colonize. So what do we do? We turn oppression into social currency - Because we know if there's one thing we can do, it's make money off of something that doesn't belong to us.

And before the people that grew up on a cul-de-sac start to get offended in my comments, actually listen to what I'm saying: Don't intentionally misconstrue it because you want to be oppressed. Just be happy and lucky you aren't."

Can someone explain this to me?

Old people use quotation marks to indicate emphasis, as a substitute for italics (which many of them could not produce on the old typewriters they learned to write on), whereas young people use them to indicate sarcasm or falseness. They’re used as “scare quotes”.

And old people use ellipses simply to indicate a pause, or for some other incomprehensible reason I’m not aware of. But young people use ellipses to indicate passive-aggression.

So an old person could type something like:

how are things going with your “boyfriend”….

and what they mean is

How are things going with your boyfriend? [Im so excited for you, sweetie, and I wanna hear about it]

But a young person would interpret that sentence as

How are things going with your so-called boyfriend…. [I say, while seething with contempt for him and possibly for you too]

The new Netflix anti-password sharing policies are a hilarious reminder that execs at Netflix don’t remember piracy exists.

The big shift from piracy towards not streaming services, but one streaming service – Netflix – and then other equivalents, stemmed from convenience; prices were reasonable, one could share an account with a group of friends or with family members, and the catalog was acceptable for the advantages the service ultimately brought.

Netflix’ catalog-to-convenience ratio nowadays is diarrhea. For every hit they have twenty flops, they hitch up prices, and now they are implementing a truly cutthroat manner of controlling who uses an account and where from – only one primary connection may use an account, and MUST watch something every 31 days or else be blocked, all other connections will be blocked, and if you have to travel, you have to request a code, yes, request a god damn Netflix code that will let you use Netflix elsewhere but only for 7 days – that is sure to be well received by the masses.

I think Netflix forgot they are not an essential good, they are luxury, an expensive one at that, and one that can very easily be replaced with some swashbuckling yo-ho-hoing.

In an ironic twist, Netflix is pulling off a Blockbuster.

When will someone rebel? The world is mental man... cant take it anymore 😔
