you don’t realize how important lunch is until you’re wandering around thinking about how unloveable and untalented and uniquely cursed you are and then it’s 4pm and you finally eat lunch and you go Oh. oh right.

[podcastwizard]

lot of people commenting on this post like "who eats lunch at 4pm that's a terrible time to eat lunch" yes. that is the point. 4pm lunch is inadvisable. 4pm lunch is not the ideal. 4pm lunch makes the mind demons real.

hello i am john mulaney but green. i do not enjoy gruel despite what my name suggests because when i was a child my father forced me to eat gruel every day. i can count to thirteen (13) by twos and i can smell ants from up to two miles away. this is my first post on tumblr

Concerning clowns and dignity

They have no kings, no gods, and no laws beyond what's fair and what's funny. They will respect you in their own way, but only on their own terms.

You cannot shame a clown in any way that matters.

You cannot silence the clowns in any way that matters.

The only way to offend a clown is to try to silence them.

Nobody has dignity unless the clowns allow it. If you don't like how they treat you as a friend, you won't like the way they treat you as a threat.

Clowns have active clown code / clown laws. They very much are beholden to them if they are a Professional Clown.

[homunculus-argument]

Very fair clarification.

Clowns have their own laws. Do not presume that you know what a clown is and is not allowed to do.

I mean in a way Godzilla is queer, because it queers the societal expectation of there not being a giant radioactive lizard destroying Tokyo.

spent MONTHS looking for this stupid tumblr post bcuz i constantly want to reference it and it wouldn't come up no matter what i searched despite it being (what i thought) was a popular well-known tumblr post only to find that the original blog turned off reblogs and deactivated and that it only got 12k notes total. but im posting it anyway to preserve its legacy

will always love iwtv for being a show that refuses to be confined to a single aesthetic. we have period drama balls and post-wwii parisian chic and 70s drugs&depression and depressing postmodern dubai penthouse and armand's fuckass ipad and rock concerts and divorce courts legal disputes all in the same show ugh no other piece of media is doing it like iwtv

I never learned how to type they didnt teach us in school so now i just type fast as fuck with my 2 index fingers. im strange and beautiful, swift and free. like a wild stallion galloping along on its long and creepy fingers

The world is my oyster. I have only an extremely vague idea of how to eat it, I'm pretty sure I won't even like it, but if I'm given the opportunity, you bet your ass I'm gonna schlorp that whole thing and look stupid as hell the whole time I'm doing it. I don't know if I'll like it, but I'll rather regret swallowing it than never knowing if I would.

there’s a used bookstore in rural western massachusetts (the montague book mill) whose motto is “books you don’t need in a place you can’t find” and i just feel like that summarizes tumblr too

Today I was walking home and I was almost at the top of the hill when I saw someone skateboarding towards me while eating takeout. I thought huh. That’s a choice and kept walking.

Meanwhile, the skateboarder underestimated how many pushes he would need to get over the hill, so he started rolling backwards which destabilized him and he had to jump off. Instead of panicking, this person calmly used his heelies to roll towards the skateboard, get on, and continue over the hill. Takeout still in hand.

I feel confident enough to post these now. A collection of all the existing posters after some edits from the other post that got 13k notes! These are full size/quality. Go nuts.

You may use them for wallpapers, tabletop campaigns, whatever. Consider tipping me or buying a print or sticker on ko-fi here! If you do use them, let me know what for, or send pictures!

muhammad's ascension to heaven (1. muhammad visits the hell for misers; 2. muhammad's encounter with an angel in the shape of a gigantic white cock who keeps track of time and calls the faithful to prayer; 3. muhammad at the gates of hell)

miniatures from a copy of mahmud al-bulgari's nahj al-faradis (the paths of paradise), a work dealing with the prophet muhammad’s mystical ascension to heaven, which takes him to both paradise and hell. on his journey, muhammad is mounted on the winged creature buraq and accompanied by the archangel gabriel/jibril. this particular (since dismembered) manuscript was commissioned by the timurid ruler abu said mirza and created by al-sarai in herat (timurid empire, modern day afghanistan), c. 1465
