and the stars, they'll guide me home when I falter

I'm a weird Asian kid. This is my personal blog, so the things I reblog are a mess and have no consistency. Also, I draw sometimes.

One of the reasons I feel so comfortable using Tumblr over other social media is because this site is clearly too incompetent to be evil.

[minervafloofderg-migrating]

The basic business model of a social network is to harvest commercially valuable personal data and sell it, most famously via targeted ads. Anyone visiting my blog can clearly see that I am a queer furry who’s into video games and art. And yet I am only served ads for funeral homes, Bible story DVDs, and the current president’s reelection campaign (in 2018 for some reason)

Needless to say my click through rate has not been very good

Fall. The days growing shorter. The German words, longer and increasingly specific.

[thatswhywelovegermany]

Honestly, as a German I can not quite understand the obsession of the English speaking world with the question whether a word exists or not. If you have to express something for which there is no word, you have to make a new one, preferably by combining well-known words, and in the very same moment it starts to exist. Agree?

[latveriansnailmail]

This is a german compound on the spot master class and I am LIVING

If you don’t remove your shoes in my house I’ll remove them for you with your feet as collateral damage.

I’m sorry it’s come to this

[prokopetz]

As a piano nerd, allow me to reassure you that the reason that many Classical keyboard compositions sound terrible to you isn’t because you lack the background to properly appreciate them. I mean, you do lack the background to properly appreciate them, but they’re also objectively terrible, and the fact that you need the proper background to understand them is big part of why they’re terrible. They’re so preoccupied with demonstrating the technical skill of the performer that they totally forgot about actually sounding good, producing pieces that are comprehensible only to other keyboardists. And even we don’t really enjoy them – we just play them to torture ourselves, because all serious keyboardists are also masochists.
