So Who’s Gonna Kill the Standup Comedian?

Not Literally, of Course, but Seriously

HEY! A post I wrote for vocal.media just got published. Please go check it out! You don’t even have to read the whole thing, I just need clicks to get paid for the article so I can eat and pay for Hulu lmaooo

But if you’re interested, it’s about bigotry in stand-up comedy and why we should do something about it. Let me know what you think!

Hi! I love your gaud backgrounds 'love yourself out of spite' and 'be an anarchist', but the white text is sometimes over white or light parts of the background pictures, could you maybe do some more with darker pictures?

What up I’m Jared, I’m 19, and I just found out how to check my inbox for asks thirty minutes ago

Hey there!!!!! Sorry for he late reply, but here’s a bunch of options for you! I know they’re not all on dark backgrounds, but I’m a whore so

MORE PHONE BACKGROUNDS BC I DO WHAT I WANT

(translation: i was procrastinating my huge June project and also taxes (they’re done now!) so i did this instead)

“It’s actually still okay” is something my mom and I say to each other when we catch the other spiraling into a panic attack and it really helps so I made it into a phone background for when she’s not around lol. Maybe it’ll help you too?

The Body Talk

True Body Positivity and What the “All Bodies Are Beautiful” Movement Is Getting Wrong at Every Level

HEY! Before we all leave tumblr for the protest, please consider giving my article on vocal a read! It’s about body positivity and why he movement we all know is flawed and needs to be changed.

(Also! Every read generates money for me and I’m poor, so just scrolling through mindlessly is fine ty)
