WHAT???? I NEED CONTEXT

[corporateespionage]

Dude there are 6 Garfield strips that explain Garfield is actually an abandoned cat dying alone of starvation in an apartment and all the food and friends are in their head.

UR JOKING

What the fuck

[reddyrabbit]

Incorrect. Jim Davis has gone on record saying that the Halloween strips were a nightmare. This is also supported by OUR Garfield being canonically Garfield’s overall 8th Life.

As told in “Garfield: His 9 Lives”, Garfiled was born behind an Italian Resturant, was caught eating the Lasagna, was placed in the same pet shop as Odie (Who was established as being Garfield’s eternal rival through all his lives), and was adopted by Jon. Garfield will live long enough to see his GrandKittens.

Also, as for Garfield’s amazing powers that you constantly see here and elsewhere?

That’s what God looks like at the beginning of “Garfield: His 9 Lives”.

Garfield is, canonically, an Avatar of God.

Garfield is an eldritch being, pass it on!

Cats do this because its a hunting instinct to snap the neck of their prey.

*the more you know*

[dodiedoduo-snk]

It’s a murderer instinct but holy shit it’s so cute.

[breelandwalker]

Fun Fact: The little shaking move they do when they pick up toys in their mouths is the one for snapping necks.

This one’s actually for disemboweling. And it’s adorable.

The cutest murder machines ever.

Humans, shoving their faces directly into what would kill a smaller animal: hahahaha aren’t you adorable!

[ancientouroboros]

Entirely for @hellmandraws‘ amusement, and to defend America from the charge of being “weakass babies” I’m going to liveblog eating licorice candy.

[ancientouroboros]

okay first of all, the packaging. there’s a cartoon monkey ecstatically making love to a candy monkey. Perhaps an indicator of the orgasmic bliss I’m about to experience. 12/10. my hopes, like the people who designed this bag, are obviously very high

[ancientouroboros]

the candy looks like rocks and not jaunty little monkeys. huge disappointment. I had to recreate stonehenge to rally my flagging spirits. 2/10

[ancientouroboros]

First taste: wow this is salty! I think I actually like this. I love anise so I’m pretty sure this is going to be a trip to flavortown. 8/10 me rn:

[ancientouroboros]

OMG THE SALT WORE OFF IT’S SO MUCH WORSE THAN I EVER IMAGINED.

IT’S LIKE EATING A SHOE.

IS THIS CANDY?

IS THIS WHAT MAKES SCANDINAVIANS SO POWERFUL?

[ancientouroboros]

I’m chewing and it won’t go away

[ancientouroboros]

it’s stuck to my teeth, I’ll be tasting this forever. shards of this will be discovered in my teeth when my body is excavated from an archeological dig tens of thousands of years in the future. somehow the smell has traveled up through my nasal cavity and all I can sense, hear, or experience is licorice. the world is an empty vessel filled with remorse and the cloying smell of decay. I’m at the nadir of my existence. -100/12

[ancientouroboros]

somehow, here, standing at the edge of eternity, the darkness that consumed me birthed me anew. I’m not only ready for another candy, I’m eager. I can, nay I must, immediately eat another

[ancientouroboros]

oh wow it’s salty! 8/10

[ancientouroboros]

this time I’m ready for the salt to wear off. 

[ancientouroboros]

I WAS NOT READY

[ancientouroboros]

the flavor this time was different, and somehow so much worse. instead of the leather of a shoe, it was like eating an entire shoe factory. the industrial rubber of the forklift tires, a hint of diesel as secretive as a volkswagen scandal, a soupçon of hot tin roof, the sweat of non-unionized labor, and a pervasive sense that while we’re all in this together, some of us are more all in this than others. 1/10 throw off your shackles, taste buds

[ancientouroboros]

I can’t believe it but I’m into this. I like this. shocked and disgusted with myself, I shove 2 more into my mouth concurrently.

[ancientouroboros]

conclusion: I’ve become addicted to licorice candy. what is in this. how do I get more. I hate this? I hate this. I willingly admit I’m a weakass baby. 100/10 will cycle through destruction and rebirth willingly and with open eyes, albeit it with teeth that will never again be clean.

i want men to be able to emotionally connect with people they don’t plan on having sex with. i want men to stop assuming i am planning on having sex with them because i make an effort to engage with them emotionally. i want men to stop feeling personally betrayed by the fact that i engage deeply & genuinely with people regardless of whether i desire them sexually, because i value people & seek to understand & connect with them regardless of sexual attraction

Where to begin with all this

[green45678910m]

Sometimes I purposely have headphones in with no actual music to stop people from trying to talk to me. Enraging.

[whatthefuuuuuuccckkkk]

I had to stop reading. this made my brain hurt. if she has head phones leave her alone. if she is me leave me alone always and forever

[getoffmyastroturf]

This is rape culture

[dawsvaws]

Lol unless you’re telling her the bus is here, it’s the last stop on a train, or some pertinent information, leave the damn woman and her headphones the fuck alone.

[anti-capitalistlesbianwitch]

Fixed it.

[badkidgorgug]

Thank you I was about to throw my phone at a wall

[madame-serpentine]

Okay but… can someone tell me why this is so bad? I mean, all the article told you (as a guy) to do is walk up to a girl with headphones on, motion for her to take them off, and pay her a nice and non-creepy compliment. It then tells you to tell her you have somewhere to go soon, so that the girl in question doesn’t feel crowded or like she’s in a conversation she can’t get out of.

This seems perfectly fine to me… is there some subtext I’m missing or something??

( @booklovertwilight cause I think you’ll find this interesting.)

[randomslasher]

Women get approached in public a lot.Usually this is unwanted. One of the things women now do to combat this is to make themselves unapproachable, and one of the best ways to do that is to have on headphones. Lots of women wear headphones even if they aren’t listening to music, just to avoid unwanted advances from men they don’t feel like talking to. 

This article is basically saying, “how to get around the physical barrier women have put up so they don’t have to talk to you.” It’s the equivalent of “Oh, she built a moat? well here’s how to build a bridge!” 

It’s assumptive, it’s entitled, and it furthers the idea that men deserve to talk to women no matter what the woman herself actually wants. It’s giving men tools to try to knock down barriers women have put up deliberately to avoid having to interact with them. It’s creepy as fuck, it’s rude, and it’s furthering rape culture–ie the idea that men have a right to a woman’s time, body, etc. 

There are times and places women may wish to be approached. But if they have in headphones, it’s a damn good bet this isn’t one of them, so concocting strategies to approach them anyway is ignoring their wishes in favor of the man’s, and that’s not okay. 

[ironwoman359]

“women love to test guys to see how confident they really are and a favorite test of women is to ignore a guy’s attempts to converse with her and see what he will do next; will he walk away in shame or will he insist on a confident, easy-going manner?”

Y’all think that’s what we’re doing? We are not pretending to ignore you to size you up, we are ignoring you cause we DON’T WANT TO TALK TO YOU. What you see as a “confident, easy-going manner” we see as an entitled and slightly creepy attitude. There are many places a man can go to find a woman who wants to talk to him. A place like the bus, train, or a cafe when the woman is wearing headphones is NOT one of them.

[aninactivebloggfgfgf]

This article is infuriating. The kind of person who is going to follow this advice isn’t the kind of person who can respect personal space. Not the kind of person I want to give my time to, or the kind of person any woman/AFAB owes time to.
