i wonder how much healing that one xkcd comic did to the internet with saying “you’re one of today’s lucky 10,000″ when encountering a person who hasn’t been exposed to a popular or well known thing

#me who is apparently one of today's lucky 10000 with this bcos i've never heard of this comic until now

This is a subject that really interests me because I (28 years old) had computer classes in grade school where learning how to efficiently type was a big focus. As a result I have a very high WPM (words per minute) count and am an excellent touch typer.

However, I've heard that they started phasing out computer classes in a lot of schools because it's assumed that kids/teenagers already know how to use a computer in this day and age. But smartphones are more popular than computers now, and as result a lot of Gen Z/Gen Alpha kids are able to text very quickly but their typing skills aren't as good.

#19! born in 2004 #i went to a charter school growing up so it was less typing classes and more typing lessons mixed in with the regular shit #i don't attribute my skill in typing to those though. no #that was a skill i honed through warrior cats rp on roblox #you either typed fast and well or missed your chance #and now when i'm putting effort in i can type REALLY REALLY fast

okay so this is not an ‘official’ metric by any scale but i am curious so i just bullshitted my own (explanation on levels under the poll)

level 1 - can’t tolerate horror at all, actively avoids it at all costs

level 2 - will watch a horror movie with friends/family if convinced but will definitely not enjoy it. screams at jumpscares and covers eyes at tense moments

level 3 - can occasionally consume horror media. very easily startles at jumpscares. usually feels anxious/paranoid afterward

level 4 - startles at jumpscares and generally feels uneasy after consuming horror media. avoids anything horror-related at night time

level 5 - jumpscares are less effective, but can still startle. feels anxious during tense moments. horror mostly causes unease only at night time

level 6 - has no problem consuming any kind of horror media alone at night. is largely unaffected by jumpscares. horror causes no feeling of fear or anxiety

#im like between 3 and 4 #tolerance is more like 4 but also i do tend to feel paranoid/anxious after consuming horror media #unfortunately i am also full of hubris and love horror so so so much so this does not stop me <3

i may not know much about tma yet but i guarantee the venn diagram of hlvrai enjoyers who like benrey and tma enjoyers who like michael distortion is, in fact, a circle

#tma #hlvrai #yeah i'll put this in the main tags #they're the same flavor of character. they are #no i haven't heard any clips of michael but i know this to be true #my source? divine intuition #kitsch speaks

they put your girl in the fandom and they made her way more aggressive and unreasonable than she is in canon. yeah it's to make her male counterpart seem like he's the calm one who's in the right. or to provide a source of angst for another male character. yeah. sorry

#yeah this is about irida pla #dont get me wrong i dont personally MIND the whole 'pearl clan hates pokeballs' fanon thing #but i was so surprised to encounter that first #then play pla and see irida's 'oh pokeballs are just your tools of choice' right after the first battle w her #however i AM mad that ppl treat her dynamic w adaman like he's Calm And Collected and she's Constantly Telling Him To Kys #like thats not how it works they both equally deliberately push each others buttons #adaman clearly loves teasing people and irida most of all bcos of her reactions #anyway #i should make a talking tag for posts on this blog hmm. #kitsch speaks #basic bitch tag but it'll do

tumblr is rolling out its new PVP blaze feature, where you can blaze other people's posts, on april 20th. blaze it

...or, do not blaze it. the way the blazing seems to work is that unless you turn off blog-wide post blazing, you will have to check your email, notifications, or blaze menu to reject other people wanting to blaze any of your posts. so you will have the opportunity to reject someone else's blazing of your post if you get to those notifications in time, or the ability to turn it off once your post gets blazed, BUT...

a lot of my followers get hospitalized or are otherwise away from their accounts somewhat frequently, and situations like those where someone is not able to navigate their email or tumblr account for a while take a lot of consent out of this type of blazing. it is unclear how long there is between someone wanting to blaze your post and you having the opportunity to stop it.

everyone's posts are blazable by default. this is opt-out, not opt-in. if you are often away from your accounts, I recommend turning this off.

you have to turn off post blazing for each of your blogs, but then after that you are still able to make individual posts of yours blazable if you are interested.

check the staff post for more information about how it works and how to opt-out.

PVP blazing begins in less than 48 hours as of this post.

if you know someone who does not use tumblr regularly or has not used it in a while, consider letting them know about this.
