I want to be that Mexican mom that carries her baby on her hips while dancing with my husband at the typical Mexican family party.
Im just gonna say that to anybody who just came from twitter, do NOT fucking ask for an algorithm. Revel in the fact there is none, and just do normal manipulation to get popularity. Dont manipulate a robot to get people hooked on your bullshit. Just be an actively manipulative being yourself you coward. Fuck your robots, we have tags that relatively function. Fuck your robots, you can just tag seven billion things and maybe people will like you. Fuck your robots, just be a bad person and worm your way to the top. Otherwise you’re just being fucking lame and a pussy to ask for a robot for help. Gain your own power and reach the top of your fandoms by being the most blanketing and aggressive person you can be. Just don’t fucking ask for a robot to control what you see and send. Thats stupid.
I made a baby blanket for a pregnant woman at work and I went back and forth about it like “is this weird? To like hand make something for someone when we’re like friendly acquaintances not like bffs. God why are you so fucking awkward.” Anyway I gave it to her and she said she loved it and in the back of my head I’m like yea she’s nice and probably just humoring the weirdo. Well she texted me a picture this weekend of a scrunchy faced newborn at the hospital wrapped in the blanket I made her. And I’m like. Wow. She loved it so much she took it with her! To the hospital! To give birth! She wrapped her newborn it! I am just so filled with love and joy right now.
People will love the things you make them. Because you thought of them and you cared.
the idea of using tumblr as a twitter alternative is incomprehensible. it's like if your local walmart closed down and you started doing all your grocery shopping at the cursed antique store from needful things

Every change in the social order, every revolution in property relations, is the necessary consequence of the creation of new forces of production which no longer fit into the old property relations.
