Shout out to my mom who explains my transition as "Having a daughterpillar turn into a Boyterfly". It doesn't erase the fact I was an adorable little girl, and also affirms my gender now. I love my mother.

I kdybyste Čtyřlístek zasadily do postapokaliptické situace, kde Bobík kosí zombíky holýma rukama, Pinďa hledá v ruinách Třeskoprsk suroviny a Myšpulín tvoří megazbraň na vyhlazení nemrtvých, Fifinka bude někde v rohu péct buchtu nebo zdobit úkryt.

[willowmaidsworld]

já měla doma nějaké staré souborné vydání čtyřlístku. Byl tam díl, kdy v třeskoprskách řádil vrah (který se zaměřoval na mladé ženy a pravděpodobně je i znásilňoval, což si uvědomuji až teď, to je crazy) no a Myšpulín, Bobík a Pinďa se rozhodli, že ho dopadnou. Fifinku nechali doma, protože to bylo moc nebezpečné. Takže Myšpulín vymýšlel nějaké pasti, Pinďa někde číhal a Bobík dělal návnadu (ano, tento díl obsahuje drag Bobíka, docela mu to slušelo). Jenže ten vrah přišel za Fifinkou a ona ho naprosto zdecimovala. Borka ho prostě zmlátila a zavolala policii, zatímco pekla nějaké buchty nebo co

[adyathemoongoddess]

...v Třeskoprskách se dělo cože??

it’s funny how we’re getting to the point in the AI lifespan where you can feel the desperation from tech companies to have you use their AI features. instagram has moved their AI effects to the top of the menu when you’re creating a post for your story, exactly where the draw/edit button used to be. gmail is creating one-click AI-generated replies right before you open up the text box. spotify put a beta AI playlist generator on the front page that looks just like a search bar so all of their users accidentally click on it when they go to search for a song.

tech companies are shaking in their boots trying to prove to shareholders that their investment in AI is worth it, to the point where they’re tricking their users into using the AI features even for a split second in order to fudge the numbers. like awww is your little environment-destroying toy not wielding the results you hoped for? so sad!

“If I had time travel I’d kill Hitler” “If I had time travel I’d stop my favourite politician getting assassinated” you’re all thinking way too small. If I had time travel I’d stop Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin from dying on the moon due to Soviet sabotage, kicking off the Great Nuclear War and devastating half of the planet.

[stavarosthearcane]

Good Job.

#this post gets me every time 

It’s from two days ago fam how many times could there have been

Happy one month anniversary to this post that has not allowed me a single day of fucking peace since I made it.

Honestly having reached a billion notes I think it’s safe to say that in the Year of our lord 2041, this is the most popular tumblr post out there.

Where do you think the plot for Terminator came from?

Can someone do that graph thing with the frequency of names over time and put a dot on it when the muppets and sesame street came out

[bumblewyn]

ask and you shall receive!

according to wikipedia, sesame street debuted in november 1969.

we can see that kermit was already in decline. the last kermits were born in 1989 with none thereafter.

grover is a similar story. shoutout to 1920, which is the only year with female grovers (a whole six of them!)

elmo is similar once more, which makes me wonder if they deliberately picked "older" names that were already going out of fashion. another shoutout goes to to 1916 with its lone 5 female elmos.

oH RIGHT This was before LotR pioneered cgi for massed crowd behavior

There was so much cool cgi in those movies I just assumed all the clones were too but back then I guess they still couldn’t really be

[chilewithcarnage]

this is so sexy

[luckyladylily]

I wonder what happened to all the agent smith masks

[roomtemperaturesuperconductor]

I can actually answer this! So the latex/rubber they used, while standard for Hollywood at the time, reacted REALLY BADLY to being doused in pouring water nonstop for an entire day of shooting. They ended up corroding, which caused them to stink really badly and glob together at the seams. The original plan was to hand out masks to various crew members on the final day of shooting as souvenirs, but the sopping wet, melting, rotting rubber got so gross that by the end of that shooting day they’d already thrown most of them out. Somewhere in a landfill are hundreds of disgusting, bloated, slimey Hugo weaving heads fused together into a nightmarish rotting amalgam :)

"the world you grew up in is gone" but not in a reactionary "there are too many brown people" way more like i woke up one day and suddenly everyone is illiterate and believes jewish people are literal demonic pedophiles, raw dairy and steak cure cancer, and AI chatbots are their friends. and i want the old world back

[aeyriabird]

sorry to post religious ads but i got this ad

and i can't get over how the artist/graphic designer clearly went in knowing they were replicating classic holy white bird imagery and did a decent job with the editing too, except they either don't know what a dove is, don't know that the bird being specifically a dove matters, or just got real lazy and chose the first all white bird that came up in search results because that is fully a seagull in that image

GOD IS COMING FOR YOUR FRENCH FRIES

[dragon-in-a-fez]

no country where it's legal to hit children should be allowed input on anything internationally. the UN, WHO, World Bank, whatever should be allowed to just go "interesting opinion but you think 'they're small' is a reason not to protect someone from assault so overruled"

Fascists use your status as privileged in these categories to blind you to the fact that class wise you are disenfranchised.

The elite want you to see any change to the status quo as negative when thats so far from the truth. The only group that losses from a change to the status quo are the elites!

Every disenfranchised group fighting for rights is fighting for you as well. Progressive movements are natural allies of the working class.

[boypart-blog]

WHAT!!!!

[transhumanisticpanspermia]

No

They can leap 36 feet

As in leap forward 36 feet

They don’t jump 36 feet into the fucking sky do you know how terrifying that would be the human race wouldn’t have survived because we’d have all had heart attacks while still in Africa

this post makes me cry every single damn time

[gabbigabriella]

This is one of those legendary posts that’s been around since I first made a Tumblr. When I didn’t have access to my Tumblr for a few years I would sometimes reference this post. Iconic lol

[mephistopheles]

um so quick question you do know that the world isn’t divided into People Blindly Accepting Of Gender Roles and Smart Trans Ppl. the world isn’t divided into People In Romantic Relationships and Single Aros. the world isn’t divided into People Who Socialize Easily and Oppressed Autistics. the world isn’t divided into Enlightened Queer People and Stupid Misogynists. like you are aware of this ? i hope you are aware of this

[dramatic-dolphin]

happy kormányváltás to my favorite prematurely truncated article title:

[dramatic-dolphin]

ok i have nothing better to do with my time rn, so translating this for my english-speaking followers because it's hilarious. the full sentence he said was "gyanús identitású szexaktivistákat küldenek az iskolákba, nekem ettől feláll a hátamon a szőr", which means "they are sending sex activists with suspicious identities into schools, this makes my skin crawl"

feláll a hátamon a szőr = makes my skin crawl. translated literally it means "the hair on my back stands on end". now, cutting the last four words gives us "nekem ettől feláll" = 'it stands up/rises for me' which is a. different euphemism.

tl;dr "orbán viktor: they are sending sex activists with suspicious identities into schools, this makes my dick hard"

[calciumcryptid]

I feel like a lot of people get "All Art is Political" confused with "All Art is made with Political Intentions" which is not the same.
