I know I haven’t shut up about the whole MetLife thing but listen, listen okay
When I was watching YouTube growing up one of the things I heard about Americans going to Europe was we do not adapt right? Yet, Americans are telling Europeans “hey buddy it’s not a good idea to walk to MetLife considering where it’s at 1) it’s a 6 lane highway 2) yes the speed limit is 55 or 65 but you’re still having people going 90 on a regular day maybe more 3) because of that you will get squashed like a bug or 4) the police will either arrest you or shoot you since it’s illegal to walk on the interstate in some places including here and 5) the heat here is probably worse than your heat because our heat isn’t what gets ya it’s the humidity so yeah it’s a mile but walking that mile not a good idea” and instead of being “oh I never knew that before okay” it’s been “You Americans are all so lazy” “you’re saying you’re gonna hit us with your cars” “but it one mile you seriously can’t walk one mile” like y’all don’t want to adapt either
So with that being said, we’ve told y’all and we’ve told y’all about the lack of walkable places in the us, we’ve told y’all it’s not a good idea so don’t act like we haven’t been warning y’all when and if you get to experience the American Prison system first hand
The most annoying thing about the metlife world cup drama is europeans acting like we all personally built the stadium in the worst way possible. like we know the infrastructure sucks thats why we're trying to help u motherfuckers. if u wanna walk across the meadowlands in june heat fine but dont say we didnt warn you
it genuinely sounds so absurd as someone whose been driven through new jersey/to metlife stadium like oh yr gonna Walk are you? from where?
Do Europeans really think that they can walk across the Jersey Turnpike to get to the world cup thats like not going to work. Not even in like a "lol new jerseyans kill for sport" kind of way like you people are going to get arrested best case scenario. The ones who don't get arrested are going to get run over.
really big fan of the discourse happening about european soccer fans coming to jersey for the world cup and thinking walking across a 6 lane highway is feasible at all. and then telling americans who live with this infrastructure every day that they’re stupid for saying ‘you will die if you try this’.
and also thinking anyone wants this to be how it’s set up? i’m sure the residents of new jersey would appreciate their stadium not being in the middle of a swap as well. but they didn’t get a say in the matter actually!
anyways it made me think about how insane texas highways are and if this discourse will continue through then bc … ur not walking across this
Apparently there's this thing going on where the World Cup is in New Jersey at MetLife stadium and there's no way to reach it by walking. So a bunch of Americans are trying to tell the Europeans "please don't cross I95, it is an Interstate and They Will Kill You With Their Cars"
And then you look in the comments and it's just a bunch of Europeans going "you Americans don't know how to walk, we will walk there" and the options are dying in a swamp or dying via 80mph collision with a Honda Civic.
I don't know what to tell you, if you don't like the infrastructure don't come. We don't like it either, not a single American is defending the infrastructure they're just begging Europeans to not get hurt or put themselves in danger and every single European is being so nasty about it.
Why don't you protest by not giving the World Cup money. Why is your only option to throw your fleshy body onto a busy Interstate. Okay, buddy. You sure showed them.
Current twitter drama is Europeans confidently declaring that they don't need to drive or use overpriced public transport to get to the MetLife stadium for the World Cup; they will simply walk down the highway to get there. Girl it's New Jersey. They're gonna splatter you for fun.
If you manage to get on the turnpike before the cops stop you, a soccer mom is gonna do the Jersey slide in a RAV4 and turn your entire group into a wet speedbump
this? you want to walk down this????
please say sike
IT'S NOT A FUCKING STREET IT'S AN 8-LANE SUPERHIGHWAY THAT GOES OVER A SWAMP
Guys, left turns are all but illegal in NJ because people can't even handle the responsibility of not crashing into other cars if they're turning across the left lanes. Like I get it, drunk football Europeans are dumb. OK, have you ever driven in NJ?? I SWEAR TO GOD THEY WANTED TO CRASH THERE. east coast road rage is real and deadly and not something you ll understand until you experience it. Something very homicide inducing about having to be a rat in the maze that is NJ. It's a suburb of NYC people, it's not a normal place
Also, as someone said, the cops will pick you up. I personally got a ticket for walking on a highway and I was only a few feet up the on ramp. Like, it's just different here. If we all are saying it's a bad idea, mayyyyybe it's a bad idea. There's a reason that when the highway got shut down with protesters in LA, the entirety of the US was incredibly impressed/worried. I bet they do that in France every weekend
"Why do you talk so much about being intersex?"
Over 90% of parents of visibly intersex children opt for cosmetic surgery on their infants.
The ones that don't experience medical violence then, likely experience it as a teenager.
I didn't.
I am very rare in that I did not experience medical violence.
Why? Because I learned what intersexuality was as a young age, and I actively fought against what doctors wanted to do to me. All the way down to legal research on what medical care minors can be forced into. I remember walking into that doctor's appointment with the state law written down that proved that if I did not consent they could not do surgery.
That is why intersex activism is important. It saved me and it will save more.

at some point in your life you are going to do or say something racist, sexist, or otherwise bigoted. Your goal is not perfection, your goal is to be the kind of person that the people you've hurt feel safe being honest with when that happens.
since people keep adding this kind of stuff in the notes: no, self-flagellating and making a big show of apologizing and "doing better" is extremely not the same thing as making people feel safe about telling you when you've been shitty. in fact, doing so is in many ways anathema to it.
Sorry, but if you really want to understand a topic or truly re-educate yourself, you really do have to get into longform content one way or another. There's no way around it. The stuff you need can't be summed up in a snappy 250 word answer.
youll also need to get used to sometimes having to look up vocabulary unbeknownst to you
in conversation about white people who go to Japan and expect their knowledge of anime to culturally carry them, I was once posed with “it’s like if there was a Japanese guy who was obsessed with spongebob and came over here and thought he could get by just communicating in spongebob quotes.” This is a false equivalence because if such a man existed we would crown him king. We’d love him. Americans would fucking love that. sometimes I get sad that this isn’t a real guy I can invite to a party.
Republicans want to raise the age of voting to 21 because 18-21yos voted in droves in the Midterms. This is the same Republican Party that believes that an 18yo is mature enough to purchase an AR15 and a 10yo is old enough to be a mom.
Take all the time you need with that.
Keeping an alive tumblr in 2026 is proof of one's sincerity and authenticity - a type of person who enjoys posting for the sake of it with absolutely nothing to be gained....just the enjoyment of curation and self expression untainted by opportunity and relevance
dude it's just politics, it doesn't matter. all it does is shape every single aspect of the society you live in from the second you are born until forever
