Sorry to anyone who follows us if they open our tags and find a wall of text and now have to spend a hot sec scrolling past it, we will not change our behaviour, but we are sorry
Secondary apologies if we often repeat ourselves in our tags - we have amnesia and the socialisation frequency of a solo lighthouse keeper. The need to talk is inescapable
something i have always found really weird is when english texts italicize words from other languages.
i remember reading a book as a kid and the author continually italicizing the word tamales
i'm very tired

Hey guys I made a pride flag for when your gender is nobody else's fucking business! Check it out!
happy one year anniversary to this post getting marked as "potentially mature content" and then never leaving content review when i appealed. tumblr's own default loading graphic is considered by their own tos "potentially sexual" it seems.
@support you got any explanations for how this post got flagged? or why it never got reviewed? or what mature content might potentially be happening? believe me i am ALL ears
it's 2026 and this post is officially no longer "potentially mature" and is just "mature". so: either tumblr's own default loading graphic is now confirmed to be explicitly sexual and pornographic
or the concept of a pride flag is considered to be inappropriate for 13 year olds.
happy pride 2026. here's a pride flag for when corporate interests of a site run by dogshit transphobes, handwringing pearlclutchers, and "powerless" "allies" tell you that pride and your gender is no one else's fucking business:
For all its faults Tumblr has truly ruined all other social media for me because my friends all have Instagram and are all trying to get me on Instagram more but every time I open Instagram there are like fifteen things screaming for my attention and when I get over myself long enough to start scrolling it's like. Where is my chronological dash. Where is the following-only option. Who are these people. Why are there so many videos. Everyone is screaming at me. And then before I know it I'm thirty minutes into scrolling and I haven't seen a single thing that I actually care about. At least on Tumblr when I see stuff I don't care about I know someone I follow has found a new interest.
Fandom Problem #15,267:
Nonverbal teenage character: *exists*
Fandom: *Insists the character is "mentally a child" or "mentally a toddler" and bends over backwards to erase the character's agency*
Nonverbal teenage character: *makes decisions in the series that someone who's mentally a child or mentally a toddler could not make and has far more discipline than a little kid or toddler could have. Their mind is depicted as being able to handle strain a child or toddler's mind simply cannot handle.*
Fandom: They are totally a mental child/toddler! It's canon!
Can you all be normal about nonverbal characters, please.
emperor kuzco was clearly gay
hes 19, with unlimited power, and he ain’t got a gf. the only time we see him interact with any women his own age is when he’s rejecting like 7 of them rapid fire. he pretends to date pacha in a gag that lasts like 10 solid minutes. listen to me god damnit
Okay, but just in case anyone is coming to tumblr dot com for my hot takes on 20+ year old kids' movies: Kuzco super WAS gay (or at least coded as such) and of course, I didn't get it until I watched it as a gay grownup.
He is played obviously camp and dramatic, for a start, and there is the aforementioned "hate your hair/not likely/yikes yikes yikes/let me guess you have a great personality" summary dismissal of all his potential brides. Then he spends dinner asking Yzma about Kronk ("so he seems nice? He's what, in his late twenties?") and otherwise being slightly obsessed with him.
Then there is the whole Adventure of Doom with Pacha, him being ever huffy about the Kiss of Life, and then the restaurant gag where Kuzco takes to playing Pacha's fake wife and dressing up in ladies' clothing with great gusto (reinforced by the waitress' "bless you for coming out in public" remark when Pacha says they're on their honeymoon). Then when he is finally de-llamafied, we don't see him paired off with the obligatory girl from the lineup earlier, as might otherwise be expected in a Disney movie. Instead he is still single, but goes to found family it up with Pacha, Chica, Kronk, etc, which dare we remark is a very queer trope.
In short, I have no idea how a Disney movie with no white people (all the characters are Indigenous/people of color), a gay king, cross-dressing jokes, and the most offbeat plot of all time actually ever got made (can you imagine the Family Friendly Mouse doing that today? Let us also talk about Kronk because he is a brilliant deconstruction of both toxic masculinity and the musclebound henchman stereotype.) Other than that this was the Chaos Hour of animated movies in the late 90s/early 2000s, and yes.
So yes. There you have it. I will not be taking criticism at this time.
In response to the question “How did a movie like this get made at all much less by fucking Disney?” there was a recent Vulture article that outlines the whole shit show of a history behind this film according to everyone (writers, directors, VAs, Stings) involved. The gist of the story is that they fucked up making a whole, true-to-form Disney musical that never came to see the light of day SO BADLY that Disney switched directors, locked the writer’s room, and didn’t review a single script until weeks after the film was in theaters.
Please, read this article if you have some time. This story is wild, and involves directors being pitted against each other Bake-Off style and a shockingly intimate documentary created by the wife of Sting who, himself was heartbroken by the decimation of the songs he wrote for the film including cutting a fantastic Yzma villain song sung by Eartha Kitt that is SO DAMN GOOD but would not ever have fit the more nailed-down Yzma we would eventually come to know and love. It’s so catchy though, I’m doubling up on calls to action but please listen now:
holy shit read the article. it’s worth it and completely batshit
This is fucking insane
I've never adequately appreciated the batshit brilliance of this joke, I've taken it for granted
World Heritage Post
doing reading for my research project and i come across a paper that references fossil from "East Antarctica" and i'm like huh,,,, what do you mean east antarctica. east from where. how do you have east and west in a continent that Contains the south pole??
of course the real answer is "we called it that because it Looks like the eastern half of antarctica when you put the greenwich meridian up the top as if it was north"
I still hold that this is a stupid way of doing it. and of course it means everything comes back to british cultural hegemony as it always does.
Hey everyone. There's a new youtube feature that rolled out just yesterday that's raising some privacy concerns.
People in the U.S., U.K., Brazil, and Singapore can now share videos and chat with friends directly within the YouTube app. The update bring
This post talks about a new DM feature in youtube. What it fails to mention is that as part of this new feature is that when you send someone a link to a video, and they open it in the youtube app, they will see who sent them the link. Specifically, your channel name.
If your google account name is your real name, so is your channel name by default.
This means the new default behavior is that everyone you send a youtube link to will see your full name if they open it in the mobile app.
To turn this off:
Go to your youtube app settings
Go to Privacy
Turn off "Channel visibility for shared links"
Trimming the source id (the stuff after the '?' in links) will also prevent this from happening.
I'm a pacifist like institutionally but I'm absolutely certain that violence solves at least some problems on a much smaller level. I don't believe in wars or nuclear weapons or military campaigns I do believe in the power of that guy who punched the nazi in the face so hard his entire media presence immediately crumbled to dust
i love polyamory i love aromanticism i love QPRs i love communal child rearing let’s all get weirder forever
But this is genuinely a shitty act against humanity.
let the contemporary record show mr beast was pretty ignorable for his whole career if you were just like, busy.
The bar is closing and you and your drunk friends are hungry! In your opinion what's the best drunk food?

dude see if there's a [tag] nearby
I would never bring this garbage into the temple that is my body
this is what healthcare is like as a disabled person
[ID: two panel, drawn comic of two conversations.
P1: someone bleeding, trapped under a large boulder and crying. they're talking to someone with a shirt labelled "rock rescue." the text reads:
person under boulder: Can you please help me? I'm trapped under this boulder and it REALLY hurts!
rock rescue: You should try cognitive behavioral therapy! Anxiety can make the pain worse which causes a feedback loop.
person under boulder: can we please get the boulder off first
rock rescue: no
P2: the injured person, no longer trapped. they're bandaged and using crutches, talking to someone with a clipboard who's standing next to another boulder. the text reads:
clipboard person: I'm going to need you to get under this boulder!
injured person: why would I do that
clipboard person: It's the only way to get better! you need to build up your tolerance to being under boulders! how can you live a happy life if you can't endure being under a boulder?
injured person: you don't have a boulder
clipboard person: you don't want to get better. you won't get better if you don't cooperate.
