I'm sick of people bitching that they need to explicity state to gen z the expectations on how to dress professionally to get the results they want

A generation of young adults who lost the passive socialization of running errands in public with their parents due to the pandemic, who had third spaces entirely stripped from them before they entered adolescece, and who had most of their formative teen and college years through video chats are unaware of social expectations regarding professional dress

This shouldn't be shocking. Stop being a dick and make some actual helpful suggestions/tips in a non-shitty way and you'll see a general behavioral improvement that you desire

a ton of people have unexpectedly followed me over the last 2 days so here is my rent-lowering gunshot:

the american south is the most racially diverse and poorest region of the united states, and any political sentiment that treats the south is stupid or expendable is inherently racist and classist. a lot of y'all are racist and classist. the south is also the heart of american culture. argue with a wall. you cannot deny that everybody in the entire world does not emulate artists from atlanta. there is vested interest in keeping the south poor and uneducated BECAUSE this is the most racially diverse region in this country. if you actually give a fuck about progress, you would fight for the south, not mock us.

I'm gendered properly by strangers on the street but at work where people know I'm trans (because I started before my legal name change was finalized) I get misgendered by coworkers all day long and I wish that act didn't wear down my soul the way it does. I wish common decency was actually common. I wish there was a respite from assholes that didn't leave me feeling more hollow and angry every time I had to go back to work

I'm trying to find a new job but the market is rough and i cant afford to just quit. Hopefully soon something will work out

The magic of childhood is that you were constantly encountering new things. The best way to feel that way again is to fill your life with new experiences.

hobbies should not take up this much space. there ought to be a hobby pocket dimension, where I am able to store everything I need in a breadbox that weighs no more than my cat.

[tinysongobservation]

I'm left baffled some days. There's an art exhibition I'm going to be in for trans mascs/men about the trans masc/man experience so it's only open to trans mascs/men to submit art for it. The event (not the organizers but the actual event itself) is being called trans misogynistic because trans fems/women aren't allowed to submit art for the exhibition show specifically advertised to be about the trans masculine experience. I wish I was making this up this is so fucking dumb

“Why do Americans not simply overthrow their government?”

Well have you ever tried to overthrow the American government? Why aren’t you doing it if it’s so easy, wise guy?

Also given the state of the country right now the people who do take over after the smoke clears are uncomfortably likely to be fascists anyways.

[what-even-is-thiss]

The people in this country right now that are willing and crazy enough to attempt an overthrow of the US government already tried and failed, if you’ve somehow blocked January 6, 2021 from your memory. Somebody died during their attempt, actually.

[nyokoko]

And it wasn't even an organized attempt. They were shot by a security guard.

If the leftists attempted to organize any kind of militia to overthrow the government the United States would turn the same apparatus that's been steamrolling the Global South for DECADES upon its own.

We see this every time Black people turn out just to protest. Do you think the National Guard is here to protect from foreign invaders???? No, the US has spent much of its existence organizing its apparatus to prevent a true overthrow. That is why we are seeing the infrastructure of the surveillance state being set up in real time, and that is why the CIA dedicates its time to seeding dissent and fracturing leftist movements.

That is why they are fighting so hard to keep Black people--who have historically been the strongest organizers for civil rights in this country--oppressed and suppressed to prevent any kind of pushback. Because unlike a lot of leftist spaces, the American government understands that Black liberation means the entire infrastructure will crumble in a domino effect.

People need to understand that in the world of oppressive systems, America is literally the Final Boss. So no, we can't just get up and go to Capitol Hill and "overthrow the government." This isn't a fucking movie, and this isn't a matter of simply removing the people in power.

The whole system has to come down, and in its place must come something better, and that requires a harder fight.

Even if we were to do something like this, it's more than likely to lead to the Balkanization of America than any kind of socialist-communist paradise people seem to think will magically spring up in the wake of the fall of the empire.

here at the sandwich shop, we’ve started to notice some people who are new to sandwiches aren’t used to meat and cheese between two slices of bread. they find this practice strange and confusing. that’s why we’ve decided to cut the bread out all together. from now on, we’ll just serve slices of meat and cheese on a plate.

[junkratsadstuck]

we know that many of our loyal sandwich shop customers have been coming here for years to buy our delicious sandwiches. but some people don’t “get” sandwiches, and we need to try and appeal to them with an easier-to-understand meal format. we will no longer be serving sandwiches. all of our food will just be cold cuts on a paper plate. we love our customers and appreciate your understanding <3

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Yes we know Craig's Cold Cuts down the street does cold cuts better than we do and has millions of customers. That's why we need to switch to cold cuts, to get their customers. We hope that our long-time sandwich loving customer base will be patient in this transition to cold cuts and welcome the certain influx of Craig's Cold Cut customers who will surely come here to enjoy our worse cold cuts with you, our sandwich-deprived customer base, whom we value so much.

I love how this goes around again every time the tumblr staff does something fucking stupid.

[dommingateez]

so apparently. tags also counts as adding something to the post????? on the tagging website??? both for commentary and organization??? you cannot tag bc that will steal the notes from op????

bc there was one post. where. hold on basically it went like this

op -> reblog with tags, no content in the post body -> my reblog (also just with tags)

and op wasn't able to see my reblog

so now the key feature of this site, the way people structure their blogs. tags. literally tags. are no longer possible. i genuinely cannot believe this. what

[asexualbrigadier]

big shout out to tumblr for being the first major site in like two years to implement an ill-advised "feature" nobody wants, likes or respects that doesn't involve AI
