Monument to Hating

Idk if there's a Tumblr "hall of hate" or "hate of fame" or "hate hall of fame" already, but if not then this is it (Image description: The header is a bunch of angry stick-figure faces. The icon is another angry stick-figure face)

This blog has no followers. If my mutuals and/or those I follow see me reblogging their stuff, they may be confused by this vain attempt to create an "official-x-posts" type blog and why said blog is following them.

Anyway, if you were looking for context, my main is @somerunner. And if you're not someone I follow or have reblogged, but stumbled across this blog anyway, hello! Welcome to one (among probably many) collection of posts about being a hater. And a few posts about when to read the room and not hate, and a few other posts I think should go on this blog.

[official-hater-posts]

I have two followers so I guess it’s time to organize my tags. There will be two tags for now but I will add new ones as the occasion arises. EDIT: added some new tags EDIT 2: now I have 39 followers EDIT 3: now at 60 followers. EDIT 4: now at 109 followers EDIT 5: whoa. 156 followers (in just a few days!) EDIT 6: got 240 followers; it’s really slowed down after that rush. I’ve got 3 big-note-doer followers now, if I counted right.

#official hater post — a post that references some nebulous “hater” or endorses behaving like a hater, e.g. belittling people in jest or in anger.

#on hating less — a post that talks about hater behavior being toxic, or about showing more compassion. To balance out the endorsement this blog shows for “haterism.”

#rare double — a post that is both a hater post and a post about hating less.

#unofficial — a post that is like an official hater post but has less than 1000 notes at the time of reblogging, or is unrelated to hating.

#repeat — a post that has been reblogged to this blog multiple times. I don’t keep careful track.

#wrong blog — posts I meant to reblog to my main. I’m not deleting them here, but I will tag them.

#ground floor — posts I reblogged within a day of the original post’s publication.

#hate mail — posts that are either asks toward this blog, or about hate asks.

#on the value of haterism — posts about how being a hater (or negativity/annoyingness/confrontation) is a valuable part of life.

hey remember when people said we gotta keep talking about this and then two days passed and it just went quiet. anyways

So...we're gonna give Staff as much credit as the, uh, harshly-worded criticism they were catching yesterday, right? For immediate change in response to user feedback? Because if you don't, if you love the war more than the peace...then my friends, you are already Twitter in your hearts.

i hold no contempt even for scoundrels

[lakevida]

btw saying "i hate creatives" isnt funny or quirky it just makes you seem like an asshole

not a joke i hate all art and artists

[serenaoculis]

good thing you said artists as a category! it would truly be horrible if you were to hate all artists as individual human beings

[lakevida]

having anti role models is a beautiful thing. it's not easy to live up to someone else's behavior but it is easy to lasso yourself into behaving right when you realize you're reminding yourself of the worst person youve ever met in your entire life

tumblr added a feature where if you get a post to 10m notes the most common word in both tags and comments would become the op’s new url. this ended up with the entirety of tumblr’s user base getting a pukicho post to 10m notes to change the url to “pukeicho”

An underrated horse fact is that if you have horse that is both A. Not stupid and B. Likes you, it will actively try to prevent you from falling to your doom when you fuck up as a rider. Like actually make an effort not to drop you like a cell phone. I think horses deserve more credit for that.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

My mum's favourite horse was a total bitch who hated everyone and everything except for playing polocrosse (she was a polocrosse horse). When she was on the field she'd do everything to win, including keeping a stupid rider properly seated no matter how bad at staying on they were, but the instant she was off the field all bets were off. Her favourite tricks included:

breathing in deep when being saddled for anything that wasn't a polocrosse game, so that the saddle straps will be loose and the rider will fall on their arse. This is a favourite trick of bitch horses and most horse people will check for it so it tends to fail.

biting people. Her name was Nipper, because she liked to bite people.

Doing the breathing trick, waiting for you to correct her and tighten the saddle, and biting you when you were distracted by that

stepping on your foot when you were leading her or standing with her. This wasn't being clumsy. She would step on peoples' feet on purpose.

standing behind you with her head over your shoulder watching stuff, then deciding she wants to watch over your other shoulder. When a horse wants to do this, they just lift their head up over yours; easy. Nipper would lift her head up over yours, then dip her head down halfway through to hit you on the head with her jaw.

chewing the fuck out of everything

chasing dogs, other horses, and small children (not in a 'let's play together' way, she found their fear amusing)

enticing people to hand feed her and then biting the hand that feeds her

She was always very careful never to hurt anyone more than a bruise but boy did she love giving those bruises. If you were in real danger (such as being pressed between two horses and risking being trampled), she would use her own body to protect you. And then bite you. But she'd play these stupid games constantly and then as soon as she was on the field it was like 'me and my rider are best friends, we are a TEAM that will WIN THIS GAME' and was totally trustworthy until the chukka was over. (Between chukkas, she was not trustworthy. I'd keep her warm between chukkas and she'd resent me because she wanted to be out on the field playing with the other horses, not doing something silly and pointless like 'take a few minutes at a slower pace so your stupid horse heart doesn't explode'. Between chukkas was prime Step On Derin's Feet time.)

I do not think I trust horses

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

They gotta amuse themselves somehow

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

I should point out that Nipper hated us for fun. She liked us inasmuch as she was capable of that emotion and wanted to go to events and play polocrosse (if a horse does not want to play polocrosse, you will know it). She behaved like this not out of a specific personal hatred, but because it entertained her to cause problems. This horse exuded High School Mean Girl energy.

Official horse hater post (horse that is a hater, not hater of horses)

What if the meme was instead "oh you hate [band]? name 5 of their songs", to make fun of the cynical impulse to dismiss something without being familiar with it. A better world?

Ok I know I intended to go on an indefinite post hiatus, and broke it a few times, but I don’t want the ooze post to be my second-to-last. I’m gonna look through my drafts for some other good hater posts to end on.

Hostile blogscape is my favorite tag so that might be over-represented in the upcoming posts.

[netherator]

pocketing my delicious ooze

[official-hater-posts]

I keep forgetting about this. You know what, breaking posting hiatus once again. Thanks for the big 50 @an-emo-chicke and everyone else that got me there. I think this reply is the third most notes I've gotten with this gimmick blog; I can't exactly look at a reblog and tell which notes were meant for me and activity summaries only go back a few months.

Tumblr post reader gets dedicated haters...not even I, on Tumblr proper, get haters...

I think it’s normal for people to be mad at each other sometimes even if they’re close friends or family or intimate with each other. Like I think that’s a normal and healthy part of relationships that can happen sometimes

[kunosoura]

“Why were you on Mad At Me island” because at the time I was mad at you and yet our friendship has weathered that without trouble
