Just your average fangirl

[floridakilo]

social media has evolved into such a voyeuristic spectacle over the last five to ten years its truly shocking to me like excluding tumblr 90% of the explore pages on other apps is just videos of peoples faces set to music or people talking directly to the camera etc etc......by contrast on tumblr there is still a sort of sheen of anonymity based on how its formatted and usually when you interact with a post you read or watch the content first and then learn the users identity second by clicking on their profile ie the dash is not just a wall of people filming themselves unless its a repost......i remember even only a couple of years ago there was a distinction between people who were influencers and got paid to film themselves 24/7 for instagram but now its like every average person on reels/tiktok is performing the same kind of theater for free......i cant imagine what that would do to your psyche long term

Kids don’t have a little brother working in the coal mine, they don’t have a little sister coughing her lungs out in the looms of the big mill towns of the Northeast. Why? Because we organized; we broke the back of the sweatshops in this country; we have child labor laws. Those were not benevolent gifts from enlightened management. They were fought for, they were bled for, they were died for by working people, by people like us. Kids ought to know that. That’s why I sing these songs. That’s why I tell these stories, dammit. No root, no fruit! —Utah Phillips

Jason: I will never pity you, Dickface. I am the perpetual family disappointment, I pity no one.

Dick: Oh come on, you think you’re the family disappointment?

Jason: Well it sure as hell ain’t you, golden boy!

Dick: We’ll see about that. Bruce!

Bruce: Hm?

Dick: Who is the family disappointment?

Bruce:

Bruce:

Bruce: St–

Stephanie: NO!

Stephanie: Shut up shut up shut uuuupppp!

Stephanie: I cannot be the family disappointment because I am not a part of this family!

Stephanie: I don’t even go here!

Tim: You’re here all the time–

Stephanie: As your personal Kimmy Gibbler! Not a sister!

Stephanie: [to Bruce] I can’t believe you. I CANNOT believe you! Say it, Bruce, swear to God, SAY IT and I will slap you again!

Jason: Again?

Stephanie: I AM NOT THE FAMILY DISAPPOINTMENT!

Stephanie: You know who is, Bruce? You. YOU ARE THE FAMILY DISAPPOINTMENT.

Stephanie: You haven’t done half the crap you should and YEAH I’m pulling out receipts because I INVENTED fake dying and when I got back no one was nice to me SO YOU DON’T GET ANY FREEBIES!

Stephanie: I’m leaving! Tell Cass I’m not talking to any of you and I broke up with Tim–

Tim: How is this my fault?!

Stephanie: –and that I’ll be at Gina’s on 5th for smoothies because SOME of us keep our promises and don’t just go ‘hey I’m back from the dead get out of my cave even though I’m a loser who got lost in time like a loser’ which, like, PATHETIC

Every time I see a post about updog I’m torn between not wanting to fall for it and wanting to help the poster complete their joke.

[tommyeatseaton-blog]

okay but what’s updog ?

[jaiwithanadult]

Updog is a long sausage in a bun often served with ketchup, mustard, onion e, and/or relish.

[yumantimatter]

No, that’s a hotdog. An updog is when a new version or patch of an application is released

[defectivealtruist]

You’re thinking of update. Updog is when you end a sentence with a rising intonation.

[ghostpalmtechnique]

No, that’s uptalk.  You’re thinking of the fourth-largest city in Sweden.

[argumate]

surely that’s Uppsala, whereas Updog is the giant spider in Harry Potter.

[regexkind]

That’s Aragog. Updog is a symbol conventionally used for an arbitrarily small number in analysis proofs

[another-normal-anomaly]

You’re thinking of epsilon. Updog is an upward-moving air current.

[yieldsfalsehoodwhenquined]

no that’s an updraft

updog isn’t a noun at all, it’s a verb; it basically means to chew someone out, or harshly lecture them

[identicaltomyself]

No, that’s upbraid. An updog is a small dog that likes cuddling on people’s laps.

[speakertoyesterday]

No that’s a puppydog. An updog is when the Mets win.

[mistbornthefinal]

No that’s an upset. An updog is the modern version of a henway.

[yumantimatter]

What’s a henway?

[eversolewd-deactivated20250517]

Oh, about 5 pounds.

My villain origin story will always contain the treatment of Skip Beats anime. How is it that you take a series that was on every shoujo recommendation list in the early 2010s, ignore it and drop production on season 2, and then have a dub that most websites don't have with the dvds being nearly impossible to find. Most anime fans these days are barely aware it exists.

You ever think about how unified humanity is by just everyday experiences? Tudor peasants had hangnails, nobles in the Qin dynasty had favorite foods, workers in the 1700s liked seeing flowers growing in pavement cracks, a cook in medieval Iran teared up cutting onions, a mom in 1300 told her son not to get grass stains on his clothes, some girl in the past loved staying up late to see the sun rise.

[quecksilvereyes]

there are scriptures all over the world painstakingly crafted hundreds of years ago with paw prints and spelling mistakes or drawings covering up mistakes. a bunch of teenage girls 2000 years ago gathered to walk around their hometown, getting fast food and laughing with their friends. two friends shared blankets before people lived in houses. a mother ran a fine comb through her child’s hair and told it to stop squirming sometime in the 1000s. there are covered up sewing mistakes in couture dresses from the 1800s, some poor roman burnt their food so well past recognition that they just buried the entire pot. there are broken dishes hidden in gardens of people no one even remembers anymore

[theropoda]

children eleven thousand years ago enjoyed jumping around in puddles made from the footprints of a giant sloth. children loved muddy puddles so long ago there were still megafauna alive

[captainlordauditor]

There’s a record of an emperor of Japan in the 9th century talking about his cat - how pretty it is, and how it stalks birds and curls up in a circle and meows mournfully for company and escaped its collar. All completely normal ordinary cat things. And then it ends with him saying “it is superior to all other cats”. I am delighted to be united across 1200 years with this fellow cat owner with exactly the same feelings about his cat that I have about mine.

jason, loudly : I hope no one is about to attack me from behind because I'm thinking about making cookies later.

damian pausing :

damian : ...what kind?

[vala-dreams]

Jason: oatmeal raisin

Damien: would you like to be hanged, stoned, or guillotined?

[antiprivateeractivist]

"it's okay to live with your parents as an adult if you're disabled" "it's okay if it's a cultural thing" "it's okay if you're trying to save mon-" shh. listen. it is okay for any reason. you don't need to have a justification. if your parents are alright with it and you're alright with it you can just do it. peace and love on planet earth etc etc

Tiny Dick: I don't like you

Talia: *gets him hot chocolate*

Tiny Dick: *reconsiders*

A few years:

Damian: Are you training me instead of Father? I rather be trained by him.

Dick: *gets him the exact league brand chocolate*

Damian: This is- *my Mother's chocolate* thank you... Grayson

[rasalghul777]

My personal headcanon is that when Talia was dating Bruce and trying to build a relationship with Richald, she ended up doing anything with him to make him happy of course, and now that Damian currently resides with Dick, he tries to do everything Talia tried for him. And the kid notices because of course it has written Mother all over it. And Damian thanks him, for trying to make him feel more like home. Dick understands well how homesick one gets in the huge lonely manor. And unlike him Damian still has his Mother alive and breathing. Even if their Father isn't anymore.
