yeah yeah rainbow capitalism is bad and whatever but like. when I was a child, being pro gay was not the popular or lucrative choice. I'm happy that times have changed.
I miss rainbow capitalism. I do. I miss when it felt like public opinion was still pro gay. I understand it was always an empty gesture, but it mattered in a sense of knowing how socially acceptable being queer is. If that makes sense.

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.
Round 1, Match 47 — Mochette vs. Punk
Mochette is a niche internet aesthetic that juxtaposes 'ugly' and 'gross' imagery, usually decay or disease, and cute, feminine imagery. Its name comes from combining 'moche,' the French word for 'ugly,' with the suffix -ette, meaning 'little.' While it has similar aesthetic origins to Morute, Mochette focuses on contrasting cuteness with the 'disgusting,' 'ugly,' or 'grotesque,' while Morute utilizes the 'dark,' 'creepy,' or 'morbid.' Additionally, Mochette has a higher emphasis on decay and rot, particularly outdoors and in nature, and the colors green and brown. Where Morute may inspire feelings of fear or unease, Mochette intends to instead cause revulsion and nausea. Mochette visuals typically consist of 'gross' or rotting imagery, and pretty, feminine imagery. This is often accomplished by simply posting cute things, like dolls and stuffed animals, and 'gross' things, like mold and bugs, on the same blog. However, many Mochette bloggers intentionally find images which combine both elements, either by cute-ifying 'ugly' things (for example, photoshopping a bow onto a picture of a worm) or by 'tainting' cute things (for example, ripping or staining a pretty dress). Soft, pastel colors (especially pink) are commonly contrasted with 'sickly' shades of green, yellow, or brown to evoke this.
vs.
Punk is a subculture that encompasses music, ideologies, and a distinct fashion style and visual aesthetic. It originated from punk rock, a genre that emerged in the mid-1970s as a direct rejection of the bloated, commercial aspects of mainstream 1970s rock. The punk ethos emphasizes non-conformity, anti-capitalism, anti-authoritarianism, and a revolutionary Do-It-Yourself (DIY) ethic. The movement began in New York City and London as a response to perceived boredom and systemic anger, eventually spreading globally and spawning numerous political and musical subgenres. The fashion commonly associated with the Punk subculture is a declaration of non-conformity, utilizing unconventional clothing, hairstyles, cosmetics, jewelry, and body modifications that society typically finds inappropriate or shocking. The key aesthetic principle of Punk is the anti-consumerist ideology of wearing clothes (often tartans, leather jackets, or band shirts) either bought at thrift stores or handed down from family members and then aggressively modified through tearing, defacing, and repurposing. This Do-It-Yourself (DIY) ethos is the source of the aesthetic's raw and defiant look, with the materials often being what was readily available through thrifting and dumpster diving. The main uniform often includes ripped T-shirts and leather jackets customized with paint or slogans. Combat boots are a near-universal element within many Punk scenes; boots such as Doc Martens became a standard due to their durability, low cost, and ease of acquisition at the time. A prominent and highly personal element of the visual style is the Battle Jacket, a jacket—typically made of denim or leather—that is heavily adorned with patches, pins, studs, and spikes. These jackets function as wearable billboards, featuring a collage of band names, political phrases, or subcultural symbols.

Round 1, Match 89 — Cherry Emoji Twitter vs. Fanfare
Cherry Emoji Twitter, also called Hoe Twitter or CET, is a fashion aesthetic that centers around being attractive and erotic, but also being very mischievous and bad while doing so. This aesthetic is a movement of sexual liberation for women, without the corporate meddling involved in similar aesthetic Femme Fatale. CET is beautiful, rich, and shamelessly sexual with a red and cherry-patterned theme. The visuals of Cherry Emoji Twitter are distinct and sexy, usually in the form of mood boards that are mostly pink in color, pictures of girls decked in sexy or pretty outfits while bloody, etc. They can overlap with Bubblegum Bitch visuals. These visuals include very sexy or cutesy pink or red outfits, pictures of cherries, usage of feminine colors, blood or gore, drugs, famous TV and book characters with the fashion and character style of the aesthetic, and succubus imagery.
vs.
Fanfare is an aesthetic surrounding circuses and carnivals, temporary events that involve spectacle, fun, and excitement because of their rarity, various rides and attractions, and interesting, sometimes mysterious people that operate the circus/carnival. Western culture has tropified imagery associated with circuses because of media and the traditions associated with going to these events. Circus acts and carnival attractions typically are seen as separate and evoke different emotions that are amplified with costumes, stage presence, and color scheme. In fanfare, all of these elements are combined, creating a varied yet cohesive aesthetic that utilizes this large range of different positive emotions to amplify the novelty associated with fanfare. Common visual elements include ring leaders, elaborate costumes with top hats, coattails, and braided trim, clowns, trapeze artists, animal acts, strongmen, fortune tellers and/or spiritual mediums, crystal balls, striped tents (especially red and white), pennant garlands, lightbulbs, fonts that are associated with vintage spectacle, hand-drawn lithograph posters, candied apples, corndogs, cotton candy, popcorn, soft pretzels, bumper cars, carousels, ferris wheels, and roller coasters.

just curious tbh, please reblog to get lots of votes
Perhaps my genuine biggest piece of socializing advice as someone who spent years of my life feeling wholly incapable of positively interacting with other people is to just ask the other person questions about themselves. Like that’s it. People love answering questions. They really love thoughtful follow-up questions. They love feeling like someone else is interested in them, their interests, their lives, their opinions. At some point in your questioning they will say something that reminds you of a funny / interesting story. Tell it. You will be remembered as the person who asks a lot of questions, makes people feel like they matter, and tells good stories. boom. done.
