Infinite money glitch??? I'm going to quit my job and have one billion children. My Joker Army

[lifetipsandcrystals]

Another day, another way that the patriarchy hellscape that is capitalism favors cis men. I hope all your sperm dies because of radiation.

[muppetjokernumbersixtyninefan]

so technically if you only take the money into account, egg donors are favored more than sperm donors. figures may vary by region but in the US one egg donation cycle can get anywhere from $8,000-20,000. In a 1-2 month period an egg donor can make nearly as much or more than what a sperm donor might in a year

...of course, egg donation is far more invasive and demanding on the body than sperm donation is, which is probably why there's such a vast difference in pay

The fertility industry is kinda inherently fucked up, evil and built in eugenics. This horrid exploitative industry that sells babies via capitalism can’t be saved even by The Muppet with a sense of humor.

Humans are not products, babies shouldn’t be built like designer dogs (which also shouldn’t be built like that if we are honest, pugs existing as they do is animal abuse).

Anyway, hope the joking green puppet sells the bank his sperm and profits then the sperm dies from radiation.

I’m so sorry but I can NOT tell if this is a satire blog or not- if it’s alright would you clarify for the class

I’m nothing but serious about my passions??? I’m sorry but if you are one of those crystal skeptics who believe in radiation poisoning being anything else but the moral failure of those affected this might not be the space for you.

I’m serious about the meat being poison since you are consuming death and resentment (also the environmental impact and animal abuse). The only way to preserve your aura and inner magical energy is to reject the disgusting practice that is consuming other creatures’ corpses.

WHERE'D EVERYBODY GO

Oh there you are hello again everypony

[lifetipsandcrystals]

Question, may our felt be from natural fibers (better quality and better for the environment) or does it have to be synthetic (yucky plastic)?

Maria Skłodowska-Curie's notebooks are crazy once you think about it. They're so radioactive they have to be sealed in a lead box. Imagine a world where atomic theory is forgotten and a dude just goes "yea there's a book that details the secrets of the universe, the machinations of the creation of existence down to its barest essentials, but if you get close to it you fucking die. The more you read it the more your body slowly disassembles into mush." like wat excuse me

[hymen-restoration-project]

Can we get a recap of the gorilla situation please?

My lawyer has advised me to limit the spread of information until the case develops further

[lifetipsandcrystals]

No offense but if you hurt that poor creature I hope you get radiation poisoning or another form of retribution, animals are innocent and killing them is the ultimate form of evil.

[valtsv]

sick of hearing about "healing crystals" that "cleanse your mind and body of negative energy" i want to know which rocks can hurt you and fuck up your vibe so bad

[valtsv]

everyone suggesting uranium isn't wrong but anyone who said "literally any rock if you're willing to resort to violence" are the only people who can get on my level. you're hired.

[milfbaitt]

caincore

[valtsv]

okay which fandom that sprung up out of nowhere overnight like mushrooms after rain is this a reference to i can't keep up anymore

[valtsv]

oh you meant like. that guy from the bible who invented murder. right.

[lustcannibalism]

stop asking ai for advice and start asking bitches with tarot cards to read your future

[jennyforeigner]

Just got a chatgpt ad where the use case was "can't decide a new years resolution". I can't think of anything more sad than needing a robot to tell you what your own ambitions are. Loser shit.

[dibstack]

Tumblr is funny because you will see a post

nuclear family radiation poisoning

[lifetipsandcrystals]

Family is a divine punishment from the earth and radiation poisoning is too

the most disorienting thing thats ever happened to me was when a linguistics major stopped in the middle of our conversation, looked me in the eye, and said, "you have a very interesting vernacular. were you on tumblr in 2014?" and i had to just stand there and process that one for a good ten seconds

[booksandchainmail]

#i was in a car with a linguist i had never met before the car trip and like half an hour in he looked at me#after i finished describing a geology thing that was happening out the window and asked if i'd ever spent much time on tumblr#the fuckor of it all#and then we spent six more hours driving#it sure does leave linguistic markers! i'm not sure i'm good with it (tags via @thoughtsformtheuniverse)

[issela-santina]

it is one thing to be a linguist and another to be a linguist who knows enough of 2010s Tumblr to spot one of its enjoyers

[lierdumoa]

Oh! @meret118 see above comment! The use of the word "enjoyers" instead of "users" or "bloggers" -> You left a comment a while back asking, "Does this just mean vocabulary words? Other than blorbo and sweet cinnamon roll etc, I can't think of what a Tumblr accent would be." I almost never see anyone use the word "enjoyer" anywhere outside of tumblr, but I see it on tumblr fairly frequently.

Another one is the verb "perceive" i.e. "don't perceive me" "I am perceiving" "I am being percieved." That's something that feels very specific to tumblr parlance.

There's the thing where people on tumblr have an emotional reaction to something and instead of, or in addition to telling you how they feel about it using emotion words, they will narrate a fictional action in the present progressive tense. "I am gnawing at the bars of my enclosure "I am kissing you on the mouth" "you are going into the soup" "you are getting all of the awards"

I once saw someone use that response format in ... I think it was a restaurant review, or a doordash review, or something like that. It was very unexpected seeing it outside of a tumblr post.

There are a lot of other tumblr linguistic quirks I can't currently remember off the top of my head, but I'll instantly recognize them if I see/hear them outside of tumblr. It's always a bit startling to see them out of context.

[i-wear-the-cheese]

when I was in university one of my modules was about internet slang and for our grades project we had to compile and analyse a small database of 100 words used by a specific community of our choice. I chose tumblr and that's how I stumbled across Gretchen McCulloch's research and discovered that yes not only did tumblr have its own vernacular and syntax (as @lierdumoa demonstrates), it was at the time a crucible of slang and memes probably unrivalled by any other part of the internet. and it's stayed that way! even the very title is McCulloch's book because internet is an example of this specific phraseology.

sadly my project is lost due to the website being wiped from the university database after graduation and my then laptop having a major hardware failure. backup your backups people! but the crux of the entire module was that the internet is full of communities using language not only as jargon for specific purpose but also to signal membership in said community. I even wrote a bit about non capitalisation and punctuation useage as a visual cue on tumblr and how including information in the reblog body or the tags indicated different levels of importance or intimacy of thought

I am holding the side of your face and looking deep in your eyes and telling you that love is stored in the syntax, and that we are rotating words together all at once as we all nod at their new and baffling meanings. if the devils sacrament be tumblr then the devils gospel is our collective voice. thanks for coming to my tedtalk

That mysterious tall girl with a beautiful voice who seems unsteady on her feet and gets nervous and quiet when you talk about going swimming with her is probably secretly a mermaid.

[soup-mother]

Many beautiful women are not quite getting the joke here but that's alright.

[elbiotipo]

Every time there's a nature vs. nurture debate someone says "well SOME of these conditions must be inherent" and you look at them further and no they really aren't

[elbiotipo]

Not to oversimplify one of the biggest debates of all science and the humanities of course. But again most of the time when people try to cling to the idea that there are things inherent and inheritable they're proven wrong and you have a feeling that they're doing it just for the sake of nuance. Or eugenics.

[elbiotipo]

When things are proven to be "inheritable" well, many things are inheritable. It does not mean that they're inherited through genes. Poor access to education is indeed "*inheritable* in a society with discrimination and low social mobility.

"poor academic performance is correlated with these arbitrary racial categories" hmm. I wonder why that is.

[elbiotipo]

I yearn for the day when IQ is considered the worse, more harmful version of astrology. I hope it is forever disterred from any scientific analysis and the popular consciouness

[lifetipsandcrystals]

IQ started as some guy’s earnest attempt to help disadvantaged students and quickly became a racist pseudoscience people use to justify atrocities against the most vulnerable children, astrology on the other hand is mostly harmless fun to make life a little more whimsical unless you are an asshole or a scammer (or an asshole scammer), astrology only receives the amount of hate it does because it is mainly a “women’s” interest.

Yes, there are some wacky people really in to astrology but for the most part it is a silly and fun harmless entertainment unlike whatever the white supremacists are using to reinvent phrenology this month.

beautiful people love reading this post. beautiful people also love scrolling past this post and not seeing it. beautiful people just love coming into contact with this post indirectly or directly but it always makes it to them even if it only appears on their screen for a split second

Sodium is great, it has amazing energy and helps energize your chakras.
