look, if i catch sight of a mutual's unfortunately popular post in the wild dragging their flailing body behind it, i am obligated to smack that pony's ass and send them for another round of the pasture. i'm sorry, it's nothing personal, but it's in my contract
...yeah that's fair
i think this captures the defining pathology of the collective social media psyche right now. we are in the thrall of people who are wantonly cruel but who also demand to be coddled at all times in every way
The 3 demons living rent-free in my head: Dissociation, Existential Dread, and Compulsive Yapping
are bots making communities now??? some of the ones i get recommended feel like it
like the admin of this one is deactivated and at least 95% of the members are bots
can you imagine you wake up one day in a dark room chained to a radiator with your phone at 1% and you unlock it and find that you've been added to this community
The first thing you do in that situation is open Tumblr?
Where the hell else would I post about being chained to a radiator, fucking Bluesky?
Imagine if sometimes some fucking TÌ·ÍÍ ÍÌÌĄÌŠhÌžÌ ÍÌÌiÌžÍÌÌÌÌ©ÌźnÌžÍÌÍÍÌÌ°ÌÍÍgÌžÍÌźÌ»ÍÌŒÌŹ could just crash through the shimmering veil of reality with a trail of fragments from the suffocating void enveloping it, grab whoever's unlucky enough to be closest, and swoop back out like it was nothing. And this was just one of your everyday hazards to worry about. Incredible cosmic horror concept
The thing thatâs always missing from the âwomen didnât fight for the right to work they were already working they fought to get paidâ is that many women also very much wanted to work.
Women wanted to be lawyers and engineers and chemists. They wanted to use their brains in challenging and interesting ways. They wanted to get the satisfaction from solving problems and inventing new shit and getting attention for it.
I know not everyone is born with intellectual curiosity or drive or determination but some people are and many of those people are women.
Literally.
this trend of shitting on peer-reviewed academic studies in favor of tweeting âwe already knew this was happeningâ is so soul-crushing. not to be an elitist cunt, but we have got to open the schools again. people genuinely seem to have forgotten that their personal lived experience isnât indicative of the larger population, AND IF IT ISâŠâŠ then you need researchers to support these assertions from a relevant data pool instead of a blog post from 2013 đ
"Believe women and the marginalized" does not replace the value of empirical data.
it's also just so shitty being a scientist right now and seeing people shit on research at a time when the federal US government is trying to starve and strangle American research. like. when you say "oh we knew this already, there's no point funding research to prove it" we hear that our work doesn't have value. and if you think scientists aren't hanging out here on tumblr in our free time, well, think again.
It also ignores all the scientist who got into the field BECAUSE no one in power would believe them without empirical data. People who spend years documenting and analyzing data so it canât be denied, so that when you need to speak to power you have a solid piece of evidence that holds weight in courts, schools, and doctors offices to stand on. Scientist who are trying to do research to lift their communities who then get spit on by said community saying âwe already knewâ and âthis research is pointlessâ.
Do you think there are no Native American scientist doing environmental research? No black women studying public health impactors? No neurodivergent pedagogy researchers? There are. They are some of the most passionate and driven scientists out there, because they are people trying to help the people and places they love.
You do your own community a discredit when you dismiss scientist doing âobviousâ studies because more and more often there are names on those studies from your community who have punched their way through a glass ceiling to stand before the world bloody knuckled and victorious to say âLook. Listen. Understand, accept, and change.â
thinking fondly of this meme I made for a coworker years and years ago
this is going around again and the tags are full of people talking about printing it out to put in their breakroom or cubicle or sending it to their coworkers, which fills me with great joy. vast diversity of professions represented also. zoos. labs. summer camps. restaurants. garden centers. libraries. schools. many reports from the brave warriors of assorted retail. a truth universally acknowledged: if there is a sign a customer will not read it <3 and they don't read emails either <3
holy shit have you evver tried this new substance called album in order
it magically turns songs you donât like into songs you like!!!
fuuuck I could use a mysterious benefactor right now
all the âpeer pressure is badâ education we give kids is practically useless because all it cares about is telling them that Drugs Are Evil rather than the much more useful lesson of âthe person who responds to you saying you donât drink by telling you theyâll find a way to get you to is also going to be shitty about all your other boundariesâ.
god forbid you teach kids that their consent should be respected rather than about the inherent immorality of all the sinful actions of their peers
> medical problem > unsure if it's serious or will go away on its own > sees a doctor to be sure > "why the fuck are you here. this is nothing. it will go away on its own"
> medical problem > unsure if it's serious or will go away on its own > decide to wait to not overreact > problem remains > sees doctor with concrete problem after all > "why did you wait so long. we could have done something if you had come immediately"
can you put that thing on a leash?
