Bro Has To File For Unemployment 😔

anyways look how cute he is

it's actually so embarrassing that the only men I tend to smol-beanify are all film directors

with your help, we can fund the Bad-Faith Linguistics Death Beam

whether its sensationalizing syntax, devaluing dialects, writing-off writing, ignoring indigenous voices, or trying to prove hyperdiffusion, my dream is to simply blow them up!

i love having ocd 💖 its so fun to have to run all my beliefs and opinions by a panel of hallucinatory approximations of my closest friend's ethical judgements because i am incapable of feeling morally secure unless 'good people' agree with me 💖 i love how i then constantly have to vet those friends beliefs because yknow, what if they actually turn out to be bad people which obviously means i can't have a relationship with them anymore 💖 but why the fuck am i trying to judge them in the first place, thats a pretty shitty thing to do to your friends, not very good person behavior tbh 💖 i will keep on doing this cycle forever because it's so fun and i love it 💖

I appreciate the sentiment behind posts like "if you can learn how to pronounce [european surname] you can learn how to pronounce [non-european surname]" but it does unfortunately rely on the base assumption that your average english speaker actually does make an effort to pronounce european surnames correctly

Dariacore is such a wacky ass genre because you'll listen to the most fire track you've heard in your entire life, to a point where you are genuinely shocked somebody could make something so close to perfection using pre-existing vocals, only to look at the album cover and it's some shit like this. 10/10 genre would listen again

Americans are so fucking Oedipalized, the whole election culture war was just them debating whether you should prefer Mommy or Daddy. They kept saying it so explicitly too, like JD Vance talking about how Trump is daddy and was coming home to put mommy in her place (???) and the constant Blue MAGA posting about Momala or whatever

so long as we're back to social justice 101 on this stupid website, u need to be aware of the feedback loop that emerges from disproportionate scrutiny: any social group that is placed under extra scrutiny, regardless of the actual prevalence of any particular behaviour, will appear to engage in that behaviour more often.

you see this most blatantly with racialised groups (more cops in black neighbourhoods = more arrests in black neighbourhoods = "omg look at all the crime in these neighbourhoods!" = more cops in black neighbourhoods etc). even if the rate of crime is the same (putting to one side the criminalisation of poverty which is also an important related factor), one group gets away with it way more often and a new generation of racists is indoctrinated with the crime statistics which "prove" that some groups are simply more criminal in nature. we see a similar phenomenon online with particular groups (trans women being a huge example) being subjected to mass stalking, their every move documented by weirdos and broadcast as representative of the group as a whole.

tl;dr - overscrutinising groups based on existing bigotries creates a recurring feedback loop, reproducing those bigotries across generations and nominally justifying them. this is bad, and you need to remember that you are not immune to it.

tumblr ocd advice is kind of astounding bc youll see posts like "OCD LIFE HACK!!!!! if you have [obsession] try [compulsion]" and people are passing it around like its genuine advice and not literally the worst possible thing you could do in that scenario
