this generation of kids is so fucked and it’s so depressing to watch in real time. the amount of parents that are like “my preschooler got covid/rsv/had to be hospitalized but it’s ok because kids get sick all the time” is so……in 20 years or so when these kids are in early adulthood we’re going to have an increase in autoimmune diseases and chronic respiratory illnesses along with heart conditions and strokes due to repeated covid infections and researchers are going to be scratching their heads on the cause and ignoring that we let kids go back to schools mid-pandemic with no disease mitigation and then ignored a second respiratory disease resurgence

I hope more people who feel they’re leftists begin to realize that genuinely hating men AND/OR immediately assuming a man (or someone you perceive as a man) you don’t know is out to harm you is t3rf behavior. This belief will not keep you safe, it’s meant to isolate you and put the marginalized men around you in danger. Hating men will not do shit to the bigoted cishet white men in power, but it’ll tell the marginalized men around you that they aren’t welcome around you. This extends to anyone who looks like cis society’s idea of a man, but isn’t actually one, too - do y’all really think trans people of ANY gender say “okay I’m x gender now” and are immediately treated like that gender by society as a whole? Do you think your fear of anyone with facial hair and a deep voice will stop at dangerous cis men, and that only dangerous cis men have those traits? And I’m specifying DANGEROUS cis men because cis men as a group aren’t inherently dangerous. The way someone looks or identifies says nothing about whether they’re “safe” or not! I thought we fucking learned this!!

In an interesting coincidence you first mentioned living in Florida the day it was revealed to me I may have to move their and now everytime you mention florida more news about this comes to light . Have you cursed me?
This is not the place for me to go into my insane ramblings but
I’m warning you.
If you can avoid it. Don’t. Don’t. Do it.
Don’t curse yourself.
If at all possible. Don’t. The state is actively running itself into the ground.

Can’t even speak your daughters name, please just spare me the false pretense, it’s sickening Heuchlerisch/Scheinheilig . Why "care" suddenly now hours later after she could be dead in some jungle but not right then and there when you still were at Hiraa and got your memories back…. okay vent over it continuous in the tags
Edit: Since people like to miss the point here, the writing decision of making Ursa suddenly care out of nowhere without showing any interest or care after getting her face in Hiraa for Azula or Zuko’s face is just very shallow to me, they can tell me all they want how Zuko searched, and apparently Ursa "helped". Her reaction upon seeing them for the first time again told me everything I as reader have to know. Then, seeing her crying on the boat is like a slap since it’s then feels very shallow, especially since she can’t even name Azula by name and says the "other" one.

(NOT ATSV) my ideal miguel and miles friendship (bordering on enemies) dynamic is where Miles is sort of a Mean Girls figure where he’ll say the worst things to Miguel, who actually has no problems dishing that shit right back out, is usually too fed up or somewhere else mentally to reply. They fight a lot, more physically than verbally, usually in a slapstick comedy type of way. Miles is banned from Nueva York once a month and got a restraining order against Miguel in his own dimension. His parents fucking hate him and Miguel hates them right back. Rio has tried and failed to poison him via food and Jeff is considering hiring a hitman. Gabriel is beloved by them. Miles takes Miguel’s money at least twice a week to go spend it just because he can. Miguel has tried (and succeeded once) to get Miles sick with a future illness because he figured out the lesbian bar Miguel liked to perform at in drag. Miles has cried at least once in every room of Miguel’s apartment and Miguel has been confused on what to do each time besides an awkward hug and pat on the back. People are rightfully worried for Miles’s safety at least 80% of the time but when they aren’t they’re shaking their heads at the two’s antics. They need to be separated until they have a healthy “this is a grown ass man / this is stupid little girl i don’t like at work” relationship and it’ll take an act of god for either of them to realize their current one isn’t healthy at all and has extremely negative impacts on their mental state.

i think my problem with a lot of the tails and wave content that’s out there (besides the ship content we all know that’s the bottom of the barrel) is that people… LOVE to make tails win in the end. and like. i’m so sorry but no the fuck he would not LMAO
listen, LISTEN. i know i’m biased as a wave girlie, but seriously. wave’s whole thing is that she not only gets under his skin and outdoes him, but that he’s just simply not at her level when it comes to mechanics. inventions? whole other story, there’s a mandate restriction shimmied in there somewhere about eggman and tails. mechanics? EXTREME GEAR??? run, dude.
in the end, wave is very clever and also mean. tails isn’t going to get a last minute victory or upper hand, he isn’t going to “school her” or put her in her place… he is going to get bullied by her. sure he can land a few hits back but unfortunately wave isn’t going to give him the time of day required for him to even rebuttal.
“but in his spinoffs—“ i am so sorry to break it to you but wave is a rival, not a villain. tails can’t murder her, hell, their fight is of an intellectual nature not a physical one! tails does not win by fighting wave, the whole point of her character is that she’s older, more experienced, more specialized, and more cutthroat than him in her field. die and stay mad at it guys, tails isn’t coming out of this one unscathed

I was choking on a chip today while a family member was bad talking about their partner. It’s typical of me to just listen while they rant all their anger out but i was eating these bag of chips and my dumbass swallowed it without chewing lmaoo (my brain was kinda disconnected idk what the hell was going on in there) i didn’t even bother to yelp i just grabbed some soda and chugged it down hoping for it to get thin and easy to swallow

Spicy (but sfw) Sunday thoughts—
I’ve been thinking about the drama that’s plagued the RPC for like ten years and I recently saw a tiktok about how a lot of terminally online (which most of us are) people are like Liz Lemon from 30 Rock— specifically the episode where we go with her to her school reunion. She leads us to believe she was ostracized and bullied for being a nerd and it turns out she was actually the bully herself
And I feel like tumblr RPC is a little like that in that a lot of us were ostracized and bullied (maybe for not being bullies, maybe it’s just because we are nerds or autistic or shy or any number of things) and then as late teens or 20 something we come into the RPC where we can make friends with other fucking weirdos who like the same weirdo shit we do
And the smallest taste of having influence over a group of people goes straight to some people’s fucking heads and they think they’re suddenly the main character of RPC Euphoria or something.
Nobody here knows how to deal with arguments among friends (and I have been guilty about this myself) or how to deal with friendships falling apart simply because sometimes people do not get along. You are NOT going to get along with everyone.
So many Fuckin callouts and calls to cancel are people’s personal beef plus something said out of accidental ignorance or a stretch.
Idk man I’m just like. Real tired of coming on tumblr dot com to read the newest fallout in the same group of a hundred or so individuals we have always been since 2012 that’s just Mean Girl (gender neutral) Shit
