there’s very few things that drive me up the wall in fandom as much as this weird new assumption that fandom is primarily a space for younger people that older folks are only accepted into in a trial basis if they promise to centralize and accommodate younger fans, and further, anything else is creepy and predatory. IT’S OKAY FOR ADULTS TO PRODUCE CONTENT FOR OTHER ADULTS.

if I have to read “women in their 30s” used as an insult one more time I swear I’ll - step away from that user and just hang out with the other grownups who consistently create good content because I’m also an adult and too busy comparing car insurance to fight with teenagers on the internet, but goddAMMIT I’ll be annoyed

I’ve been in this hole since yall lil shits were three apples tall and I’ll die in this hole too

and if i said nolan's odyssey starring no greek actors and with no recognizable aspects of greek culture or involvement by greeks, is the direct legacy of white supremacist colonialism that treated ancient greece as not just the pinnacle of ancient culture, but of an artificially created "european" culture, which white western europeans and their settler descendants, as the new pinnacle of culture, were the sole spiritual inheritors of.

^^^ PEOPLE ARE STILL THERE. There's a metro station across the street from the colosseum where i found a hair in my pizza slice. We drove by ruins of an amphitheater next to a motorway in greece once. It's literally just real places where real people live and have lived. It's not mythical perfect lands that once existed. I went to Itacha in 2023 and there was not enough parking space.

A Letter to Hollywood and Nolan's Odyssey Cast from Us Greeks Greek City Times

To the cast and creative team of Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, We write to you as Greeks, not as fragments of antiquity, not as echoes fr

A story can belong to humanity while still recognising the people and language from which it first emerged. We say this not in anger, but in recognition. Because too often, Greek history is treated as something that ended rather than something that continued. As if Greece exists only in a classical past, rather than through Byzantine continuity, through Ottoman endurance, through revolutionary rebirth, and into the present day;  in cities, villages, islands, and diaspora communities across the world. So as you step into Homer’s world – into seas, wanderings, gods, and returning kings – we ask that you carry this awareness with you: That Greece is not only a setting in antiquity. It is a living country. Greek people are not historical figures. We are contemporaries. And when future opportunities arise to tell stories from any period of Greek history – ancient, medieval, or modern – we hope you will remember that Greek heritage is not absent from those stories. It is present, living, and still speaking for itself.

today i learned that the finnish word for ‘hazardous waste’ is ongelmajäte, which can also translate as ‘problematic garbage’ and my roommate and i immediately agreed this is a word that belongs on tumblr.

[callmebliss]

Your fave is ongelmajäte

[you-had-me-at-e-flat-major]

in german it’s Sondermüll which means special trash and that too belongs on tumblr

What even is happening in this video? Other than a wedding of course. Multiple people have asked in the notes but there's no answer.

[torillatavataan]

This happened at a wedding and a christening ceremony at the Tampere Orthodox Church in Tampere, Finland. The church tower was struck by lightning and, according to the groom, a cover for a fusebox fell down. Some of the lights in the church also went out and the fire alarms stopped working because of the damage to the church's electrical system.

After the ceremony, a group of "smart youngsters" got the attention of the church janitor to tell him they could see smoke coming from the dome. The janitor, after confirming, called the emergency services.

The wood frame of the dome had caught on fire. The cross at the top was removed as a precaution, however the fire was put out quickly. Nobody was injured and the damge to the church was minimal.

Jos vaan perus fandombloggaat olis yhtä innokkaita ja luotettavia rebloggaajia ku suomitumppulaiset...

[kukkiva-peruna]

Tästä tuli vähän pitkä raapustus (sori mut en oo pahoillani). Oon joskus pohdiskellu tätä yön pimeinä tunteina (tai no, vähemmän pimeinä tunteina koska kesä), niin oli sit aivan pakko kommentoida muutama mielessä pyörinyt ajatus aiheeseen liittyen.

Suomitumpussa ihmiset on paljon aktiivisempia rebloggaamaan ja lisäämään omia kommenttejaan ja käyttämään monenkirjavia tägejä. Postauksista kasvaa pitempiä ketjuja kun ihmiset rakentavat alkuperäisen postauksen päälle. Ja vanhatkin postaukset lähtee välillä uudelle laukalle kun uudet suomitumputtajat löytää postauksen tai vanhat tumputtajat rebloggaa jotain uusiks, kun se oli vaan niin hyvä postaus (tai kun vanhuuttaan unohtaa sen jo rebloganneensa).

Tumpun fandomien puolella postaukset tuntuu saavan maks kourallisen tykkäyksiä, rebloggaukset on paljon harvemmassa. Aikoinaan oli vähän eri tilanne, mut nykyään fandomit tuntuu kuihtuvan paljon nopeammin ja ihmisillä tuntuu olevan vähemmän kiinnostusta olla tekemisissä muiden oman fandomin jäsenten kanssa, ainakin tumpussa. Ja se on surullista koska se sitten syö ihmisten intoa luoda ja postata fandomiin sisältöä, ja se taasen sit puolestaan edesauttaa sitä fandomin ennenaikaista kuihtumista.

Summa summarum: suomitumppu älä pliis muutu. 🥹🙏

looking. at you
