the absolute BEST rival dynamic is where one of them is like “you are my equal unlike any other, you respect me and my power even if you disagree with my methods, i will only die by your hand and you by mine, perhaps i want your attention perhaps i love you, together we challenge each other to unseen heights, we are each other’s destiny, we are intrinsically linked,” and the other person is genuinely like “please die”
cecilsweep has me feeling downright patriotic i didnt care AT ALL about the previous polls on here or twitter but. seeing the disrespectful people say "who the fuck is cecil he's nobody" had me ready to throw HANDS cecil gershwin palmer was out here slaying and being canonically gay at a time queerbaiting was the only ""representation"" on any of the tumblr popular shows and u have the GALL to come here and say he doesn't matter. hes everything to this website and hes behind 90% of all quirky funnyman text posts know your roots come on
“lol but why is this actually good” because i made it in earnest?? because i loved it??? because i love you??? because quality and humor are not mutually exclusive???? hold my hand. it’s okay
it's actually insane that we're supposed to rely on crowdfunding sites like gofundme to help people suffering from a genocide.
like a lot of people in gaza are currently reliant on these sites and it takes a lot of time and effort to raise the smallest amounts of money. due to the number of fundraisers people tend to ignore most of them until something 'special' stands out.
i know someone who has had their fundraiser taken down twice for no reason. he has lost a very huge amount of money due to that. money that took months to raise. it's cruel and inhumane for these websites to shut down fundraisers and steal the money that would benefit someone living in such hellish conditions.
the person who lost all this money is my friend siraj. siraj just wants to ensure his family's well being. please consider helping him out by sharing and donating. his fundraiser has been verified (#219)
please donate to siraj and his family here
i dont care about men with long hair
quite insidious actually how often people on here just operate under the assumption that anyone who is not sufficiently ~recovered~ is simply too stupid or ill-informed to identify or advocate for their own best interests. there is no other reason you may be living in a way deemed (or even genuinely experienced as!) dysfunctional, so you obviously need 97 condescending posts per day explaining that therapy exists. health as a standard imposed externally & therefore under no obligation to align with the individual's own values, desires, or stated needs. once you start noticing this logic it's hard to invisibilise it again lmao
