[ID: two photos of a chubby white nonbinary person from shoulder to hip. They are wearing a pink body suit and a rope chest harness with a weave and a diamond pattern in the front. In the second picture there is a blurry black and white cat and sparkly lights behind them]

This is the butterfly harness by shibari study! Tricky to self tie but worth it IMO, it’s so comfy for suspension!

I know I'm preaching to the choir but like. You know you can wear masks for other sicknesses. Not just covid. If you have the flu or a cold or a stomach bug you can still wear a mask to help prevent the spread of it to others if you insist on going out! I just think it's the polite thing to do

People who switch pronouns in songs to no-homo the situation are so funny. The idea literally never even occurred to me as a kid. Couldn’t be me. I am a woman scorned. I am a man who had his heart broken. I am a guy who hates his hometown. I’m a country boy, I’m a city girl. I’m a slut. I’m addicted to cocaine. It’s a song, man.

Regarding the wave of "what do you want to be when you grow up? / It's 75 degrees in November, we aren't growing up" posts, while they make for good jokes, I cannot stress enough that, jokes aside, it will not really work like that.

Not only is declaring that all hope is lost when it's unseasonably warm sort of the flip side of the coin to declaring that climate change is fake when the weather is normal, the idea that We Are Already Dead is just not true, especially if you live in the imperial core. Most people reading those posts will die of old age and natural causes, albeit in a much scarier world than we live in now.

The good news is that climate change will not come as a flash of light that kills us all before we're old. The better news is that we still have a future. The bad news is that the future is in deep shit. The worst news, at least for your peace of mind, is that you will have to fight for it to be in shallower shit.

If it was already over and we were all walking dead then you have no long term responsibilities and you could crack a beer and enjoy life before the asteroid hits. But you can't. Collapse will not come as a tsunami all at once, but like a rising tide. The water is already at your feet, and it's starting to reach the chest of people in the global south. You're in the shit. You've got a future. It's just gonna be hard, and it's gonna be harder then if you erroneously decide now you just aren't gonna be there for it.

Abandon the comforting delusion of hopelessness.

You have to believe there is a future in order to make it better

And the West’s failure of imagination is both a catastrophic moral failing, and a condition that is perfectly reasonable and easy to overcome!

nothing more homoerotic than two unstable gays trying to kill each other, it’s called love sorry you’ve never felt it

Awww, jeez you guys! A gold wreath? A silver coin? You really didn't have to! I'm just a regular ol' skull, I don't deserve a gold wreath and a silver coin. Aww gosh I'm so embarassed

[sphygmic]

anyways im really loving mastodon these days

its not tumblr but there’s good peeps on there and silly memes and so many different instances to play in and maybe thats enough

i’m @[email protected] but i also made @[email protected] which is a cool solarpunk / anticapitalist / antifa instance. i post different stuff to each, kind of like having separate blogs. its good.

im still using insta pretty actively as well, but beyond that the other social medias ive tried havent really clicked for me

and i deleted fb on my birthday. it feels great. tumblr is next, whenever i can bear to lose 10 long years of posts.

We wanted to take this opportunity to reiterate some important information from our Support post... The automated tools will improve. Having a post mistakenly flagged as adult totally sucks; we understand and agree that there have been too many wrongfully flagged posts since we announced the policy change. The more you help, by reporting content that’s not permitted and by appealing content that you believe was flagged incorrectly, the better our automated tools will get at classifying your posts correctly.

nah bro.

some blogs are now completely inaccessible to any but their original user. paging through my follows, there are tons that when i click there’s nothing there - you can’t see their theme or their text posts, just a message saying there’s sensitive media that directs you back to the dashboard.

if someone’s entire blog is inaccessible to anyone but them, sure, maybe it isn’t deleted, but it’s impossible to follow that person anymore unless they, what, scour their whole blog? send pleading requests to tumblr to re-enable them?

its fuckin bullshit. if it werent for the fact that so many of these people have already had to spend their last bit of time here letting people know where else to find them, we would have no idea how to see any of their posts again.
