It’s October! You know what that means... 🎃 (via kxvo)
all my life I’ve somehow only ever seen the gifs of this. I never even knew that the pumpkin man was dancing to the Ghostbusters theme. This whole thing is so much better than I ever could have expected from the gifs omg
It’s time to get SPOOKY
Rest In Peace to the legendary Betty White. Thank you for being a friend to us all. 😥
Earlier I was looking up something in my blog history and I noticed the strangest thing.
In 2012 I responded to a guy who was shaming the NAACP for supporting marriage equality which he called a pet cause of white people. I responded rather hostilely accusing him of throwing gay people, including black LGBT people under the rug, to which he responded in a very cold way describing black LGBT people as "various black constituencies."
So I thought, "What if he was LGBT and it just didn't come across here, and I looked like an idiot" and I checked.
Before this: His blog is entirely heteronormative. Talks about his first crush (girl) and wanting to get married some day (to note, he was not enthusiastic for gay marriage).
After this: About half a month passes. He reblogs about a drag queen. Half a month later, hot guy photo. Gay rights issues cropping up in support. Slowly his blog becomes more gay coded, ending in mostly a series of reblogs of muscled shirtless guys.
Honestly, I think my belligerent identity bickering was a pivotal point in a man's coming out. And I'm not sure how to feel about that, since I've long considered that to be a manifestation of the worst part of me.

Dude’s still standing with those burns. Probably still got the adrenaline running, with part of him still ready to move if he needs to. Absolute king.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is still one of the top posts to come out of covid
the formerly persecuted tumblr desktop users are standing tall and proud today

Hi, this is how I wrap presents for people with lower fine motor control; it could be older people, younger people, people with disabilities.
You can use ribbon you already have for wrapping present, and I measured around the item I am about to wrap leaving a little bit of room for the handle.
I taped the beginning end of the ribbon to the box and then loop back the extra ribbon to make a handle, and it should look something like this
You can wrap pretty much like you normally do as long as you make sure that the handle is exposed .
You could even tie something onto the handle for extra support
All done!

Punctuation and spacing was added for readability but all the text is verbatim.
You don’t know how much effort I went to to find this
the wheel of time showrunner is valid, actually
Exact fucking reason why I want to bash this asshole’s skull in with my bare fists.
Compare this callous, vain hack to Peter Jackson and how that man handled the adaptation of a beloved series.
First, are you ok? Because that much anger is really not good for you. Maybe go re-read the books if they are a happier place for you.
Second… you mean the movies with so much homeoerotic subtext that TBS ran ads that EXPLICITLY positioned Sam and Frodo as super duper gay for eachother? Those movies? I really don’t think that’s the dunk you think it is.
The “spite” reaction is absolutely valid for a creator getting pressed by asshole fans. See also: Louisa May Alcott marrying Jo and Laurie off to different people ENTIRELY because she got too many whiney letters from fans when she broke them up.
The fannish idea that more anger and loud complaints will always get them what they want is fundamentally flawed, and this is one of the reasons why.
This is not much anger, actually.
Yes, I mean Jackson’s LotR movies, which commited to keep to the books as close as possible, with only allowing changes that were absolutely neccessery and not inserting politically motivated virtue signalling.
I honestly don’t know what homoerotic subtext you are talking about, but ultimately, that’s on the viewer side.
This talentless, uppity bitch on the other hand clearly has only a passing knowledge of the books, he is making a fanfiction of an alternate reality version of the series, instead of sticking to the original, which is what the fans wanted to see and which is infinitely better written anyway.
I have no idea what that example you brough up is, but if said Louisa May Alcott was doing this in her own story, then it’s a completely different situation then this, now isn’t it?
And it’s not like we are not complaining about changes that already occurred, so him saying if we do he will change even more is just him being on a power trip.
Oh, that sounds like a lot of anger. Anger that you didn’t get exactly the thing you wanted, and anger that I’m laughing at you whilst enjoying the thing you are hating AND considering it much better then the book version.
That gnawing sense of impotence you feel because you have no power over that (checks notes) oh yes - “talentless uppity bitch” was it? I guess you will need to find another word that isn’t anger to describe that as well.
So let me leave you with three things. First, Louisa May Alcott wrote Little Women. It is considered a piece of classic American literature and there was a reasonably popular movie adaption that came out in 2019, if you feel like broadening your horizons.
Second, debates about death of the author aside, the only value that any expression of human creativity has is what we bring to it. If I read Sam and Frodo as supergay, guess what? In my reality they are supergay, and any anger you may feel about it is quite meaningless. (You can insist that I’m wrong if that makes you feel better, but that’s just going to make you look more impotent, and do you really need that?)
Third: feast your eyes on this actual TV ad that was aired to advertise a showing of the lotr movies.
That looks like a lot of projection to me…
Isn't it wonderful when the voices leading our modern cultural development push back against the idea that men could ever be close friends with each other without it being homoerotic? That even, or perhaps especially if these characters are gay/bi, they can't just have other close male friendships without constantly coming onto each other? I feel so represented by my media advocates.

Everyone’s starter anime is death note.
I don’t count sailor moon or dbz cuz you watched those as a kid and assumed they were cartoons.
I mean when you got “into” anime fully aware of what it was and actually became immmmmmersed in this bizarre weeb culture.
It’s usually death note.
bitch my first was fullmetal alchemist
Mine was Sword Art Online or Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor
That’s cartoons, right?
Immersed in the culture? Never. But I think my first willing anime was Hellsing.
After being told all our lives that minimum wage is for high schoolers trying to get work experience and not for adults with rent and bills, a restaurant near me is learning what it's like to have a crew of only high school students.
They want to work less hours so they can participate in school activities (games, dances, college prep courses).
The boss says that if they dont pick up more hours, they are fired.
So they all left.
Now the restaurant is closed.
Wow its almost like if you want wages to rise you refuse the shit wages you’re getting until they pay you more.
So you agree with labor unions coordinating all workers to strike at once until higher-paying contracts can be negotiated?
Well Im not a big fan of unions but pretty much. I just think the workers need to realise how much power they have. A buissness cant function without workers so the buissness should do everything it can to make the workers happy.
