found it on pinterest this is so real to me

Sk8 The Infinity: The anime you hyperfixate on that’s actually about a bunch of guys hyperfixating (they’re all overstimulated).

"Geology is 90% vocabulary" feels like such a poor description of such a large, important topic, but it feels like it would solve so much if people just... had the words to describe the world.

It's so unfair to everyone that the majority of the population's understanding of the world stops at "tectonic plates", "ring of fire", and "rock cycle". It's so unfair.

Everyone deserves to go on a hike, and when the rock changes colors, wonder "what is that?" and be able to answer the question themselves. Everyone deserves to be able to fulfill their curiosity and it is such a disservice that they cannot.

#I saw a reddit post of someone asking why the rock was flaking that way and it /hurt/ that they had to go to reddit to learn the word shale. #And that there are maps that will tell them the rock type wherever they go! It's such a joy they know now! And they were so happy when ppl #told them! But so sad they didn't know. #geology #This is also the struggle talking to non-geologists because they ask something like 'why is the hill shaped like that?' and you can't say #'graben'. You have to translate the lingo into the rock's previous physical movement - but in words.

Teach me your slangs, I want to understand.

Last night I learned what "he ate" meant. (Pst, it does not literally mean that they're eating. It means something like "he pulled that off" in a positive way)

Please help this poor swede out. 😂

I feel like I bump into similar slangs all the time, and I just nod and lift my cup of coffee like "aye, cheers kid."

Idk about anybody else, but my online life consists of reading history, watching documentaries, catching up on artists I like and admire, watch art videos and tuning in on YouTube gossip.

So I wasnt present with the lingo development online lol.

I am like-- so lost, lol. And considering my followers seem to be on the younger side, I figured I should at least know what you all are saying when you comment on my stuff. 😂😂

For example: Please explain "poggers" to me.

TEACH ME YOUR WORDS, YOUNGINS.

#liveblogging #I think I'll go insane if I have to spend my future deciphering the lingo of youths #IN MYYYYY DAYS WE JUST HAD THINGS LIKE “SAVAGE” AND “BALLERS” #WHICH TBF WERE EASY TO DECIPHER WHAT THEY MEANT SOLELY BY THE FACT IT WAS A REPLACEMENT WORD FOR “COOL”

someone will go on about how horrible their experience with the public education system is. that it ruined their teenage mental health, didn't teach them shit, taught them to put all their worth in academic success, suffered bullying and self-esteem issues, etc.

but bring up home schooling and they're instantly like "bUt wHaT aBOuT soCiaLiZInG??"

as if the miserable experience of eight hour school days they just described is the only means (or superior form) of socialization for kids.

#also like #putting aside the stupid stereotype of home schooled kids as 'weird' or w/e #i would much rather have a happy confident and well-adjusted kid thats a little socially awkward #than a kid that can talk street lingo but lacks self-esteem and suffers from crushing social-induced depressive episodes #like is this really a choice. really. #for every awkward home schooled kid youve met i promise you've met ten other “normal” people that you didnt even know were home schooled #also shit man i've met a fuck ton of kids who went to regular school who were weird AF

always annoys me a little when I get a comment that's like "I can't believe these two idiots haven't figured it out yet!" like you can't believe that these two aren't able to view their lives and interpersonal connections through a third pov? that's uh. how stories are told....?

#punch.txt #like I get the sentiment but come on. are you not an idiot in your own little life #they aren't god they can't READ THE FUCKING NARRATIVE??????? #as a slow burn enjoyer and someone who has had relationshisp that were slow burn. that's just how. humans function #I don’t think they’re idiots.

actually are we sure that ray n nora ever had premarital sex

#alli says shit #LISTEN I KNOW THIS POST IS OUT OF POCKET #obv there is the classic 4x11 deleted scene where sara walks in on them post coitus #but bc it's deleted it is in canon lingo #n i just think it's funny if they were both too busy to fuck until their wedding night #i have to give context that two years ago i made a post saying they wouldn't bang on a theme park ride #n i was like. i feel like they are strangely unhorny for this show

funny how jo ends up calling ichiban 'ichi' too instead of being formal/professional and calling him 'kasuga' or even 'ichiban' in full

#snap chats #even ichi's friends only call him 'ichiban' or 'kasuga' #like with arakawa obvi its Affectionate #with masato its like. i mean I Personally Think they had an actual friendship at some point while they were still 17/18 #so 'ichi's' a fair nickname and it just stuck #OR- in which i think is the case for jo- arakawa mentioned ichi enough for them to just accidentally start to refer to him as ichi too #yk what i mean like when you hang with a friend long enough you just adopt their lingo #masato and jo hate ichi and yet they still use that dorky nickname for him #and i will believe it to be arakawa's fault #hm.... #i am opening a new canvas as we speak.... #maybe idk im kinda sleepy 😩

what *is* cryptofash?

it's short for cryptofascist, it's a term used for someone who covertly supports fascist sentiments or ideas adjacent to them without explicitly signaling it. someone who's cryptofash might closely associate with people who are more openly alt-right, express sympathy for fascist talking points, and voice certain statements/ideas common in fascist circles that, while not always strictly fascist ideas in isolation, can imply alt-right thinking when in tandem with other common fascist sentiments. in essence it's that guy you've always been suspicious of but you can't say for certain if they're just under-educated, reactionary, or a genuine nazi until you discover screenshots of them asking the jewish question in a discord server

#speedrunning has a fuckton of these and there's two you may recognize #rwhitegoose and karl jobst #both have been outed through screenshot evidence from the same server spouting white supremacist shit #particularly about jewish and chinese people #karl jobst was just never found out until later because the shit rwg had said was so much more horrifying #several youtubers i'm extremely wary of because i suspect them #internethistorian is on the more visible end of crypto because of his associations with openly alt-right youtubers #his earlier videos being all about 4chan and its culture while using its lingo and associated memes #and his covid denialist/antivax tweets to name just a few reasons #manykudos i'm not certain on but it's more his associations and less what he thinks and says #he's dunked on people who are 'a little too into war history for it to just be a hobby' before which is like #not a group you'd typically make fun of if you were fash so it makes me think he's Aware #magicmush gives me huge cryptofash vibes because of the subject matter of his videos being all about #standard fare online punching bags including cwc #and anybody who talks about 'lolcows' is instantly shitlisted for me because it's fucking blatant what their politics are #wendigoon is also crypto for me because unfortunately if you talk about being a pro-gun christian #while also associating with other people who just exude right-leaning proclivities #i'm not gonna trust you #etc etc

ok timeline theory gang, have you been over this already?

the Indianapolis Gazette, in a minor story beside the Creel headline, reports a power outage in Hawkins. as best I can read it:

Auto Blunder To Blame For Outtage Jordan ? Peck(?) 23, was driving his Chevy ? late last night on Highway 40 when he claimed the "steering cut out" causing him to lose control of the vehicle and slam into a power line which subsequently disrupted electricity service to over 1,000 residents of Hawkins. Peck was arrested under suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol and being held on $$$(?) bail.The power outage comes amidst frequent outtages caused by -

(by what?? caused by what??????)

that story screams coverup. if not wholly fabricated, it reeks of Someone having tampered with a car and damaged a power pole to explain away a power failure caused by Something Else.

we know since literally the first episode that power outages mean something strange is afoot, but the murders and the outage aren't the same night. the Gazette timeline places the Creel murders on Saturday night (March 21) and the power outage in question didn't happen until days later. It's referred to as "last night" in this paper dated Thursday, March 26, 1959. meaning..

have I got this straight?: in the timeline where the Creel murders happened on March 21, Hawkins then suffered a major power outage on the night of March 25, which is when the murders happened in the other timeline? and the true reason for this outage was extremely likely covered up? 🤨

wouldn't you think "baby's first psionic mass murder" would be grounds for a power outage? why wasn't there one on the 21st? or was there? the reference to recent "frequent outtages" does allow for the possibility. although now I just wanna know why it's plural, nay, frequent outages.

I don't think I'm totally up to date on the Henry/Edward timeline theory but like. is the power going on and off across Hawkins every time a rabbit gets murdered in the other timeline or something?

#btw I am once again staring at those power poles outside the wheeler house that they're so insistent on showing us #wait is the 21st murders the henry timeline or the edward #also I know it's standard newspaper lingo but '3 dead AS police probe grisly scene' is interesting wording considering the very high chance #the cops were in brenner's pocket if not actual costumed lab goons who staged things if not killed people after the fact #timeline theory #mine #analysis #random observations #every day this timeline thing gets realer

hey you guys suck(not actually) so I have to ask

I'm adding. the actual answer of what it is under the cut.

since I keep seeing people be like 'rOlLeD a. BLuNt tOdAyy pAsS tHe BlUnT' and shit will obviously be a joint. I think you guys just really really like the term blunt. you are wrong

So a fucking BLUNT. Is a weed cigar. It's rolled with Cigar paper. and then a JOINT is a weed cigarette. it's rolled with Cigarette paper. Okay? The difference is the type of PAPER. okay? okay?

#my credentals? my entire family who has been smoking for years on end #mainly my brother who's in the drug world and my dad who's been growing weed since shit was illegal illegal.l #since there were brown ass weed bricks. that you had to tear apart and pick out the decent stuff #okay? okay? Please use your terms correctly my guys. I'm sick of it #polls #poll #tumblr polls #polls on tumblr #you should like. reblog for reach or something that would probably help. I've gotten very annoyed with the misuse of blunt. #there are other words you know. instead of blunt rotation it's joint circle. you can facetime the joint too #rolling a fat joint or blunt. it's not that hard actually. there's. theres a lot of lingo for them. you don't have to just use one. #weed #marijuana #uhhh i don't. wanna add anymore tags. just reblog pretty please blink blink. blink blink big eyelashes and very. yeah. teehee #from the pouch #420

called my sister and she told me she’s read twelve books this year and her new favourite food is pickled gherkins and i told her today me and two of my friends had a group nap in my little double bed and i think your twenties are good actually

#such objectively silly dull things and yet they spark joy #like three of us squished in one bed and feeling comfortable enough together to fall asleep like that #or my sister falling back in love with books for the first time since we were little #and she’s such a serious person too so imagine my delight when the books she loves are FANTASY #and i explained a bit about what my books are about and she understands the lingo bc she’s on booktok now #everyone reverting back to their younger selves a little in their twenties to embrace everything ur teenage self tried to kill methinks #hella goes to uni

I really need to put more Velvette into my fics because getting to write a British person AS a British person is SO fucking funny and fun

it literally takes all my willpower not to have her just running around being like "U fuckin wot mate I'll fuckin smash ur face in you fuckin prick" or quoting gemma collins or smth

I'M KLOHSTRAPHOBIC VOX

#I am constantly googling things to make sure it's believable that the american characters would say them LMAO #I feel like I have a pretty good grasp on USA lingo tho #but I do wish there were some more british characters #so I could get in a few more bits of brit slang #writing americans as a british person is hard y'all #my alastor sounds like mr darcy all the time LOL #bapple chats #bapple writes

doing a more serious post -- gino rea, a british motorcycle racer, is recovering from a diffuse axonal injury after a nasty crash at suzuka. his family are fundraising for the costs of what will likely be a lengthy rehabilitation process for a complex brain injury. please share and donate if you can ❤❤

#motogp #formula 1 #im hesitant to make this comparison but i know it'll help people understand the severity of the Medical Lingo. #a diffuse axonal injury killed jules bianchi. many with a DAI never wake up. gino has a long road ahead of him. #oh g-d lmao. and the crashes were both at suzuka. g-d.

to those that Do go there - there'll be another part to the whole terastal plot thing courtesy of a comment on my art on twt that gave me an idea on how Florian and Nemona could heal from the whole thing. i'm just. having a bit of trouble figuring out the story to go with my previous comics and stuff LMAOO me retconning my own art 😭 (so if it seems inconsistent and/or too canon divergent uhm... you guys understand why. )

#specifically the 'lingo' comic and one of the frames for 'at least you are trying' art.... #i think i sort of? figured it out... should be fine now #aishi.exe #i at least want it to be consistent with the 'at least you are trying' gif bc if u couldnt tell #its one of my favorite pieces ive made ever :]]]] #anyway i also find it funny how i did Not have a plan to heal Flori like he and Nemo were sorta just gonna stay like that forever lol #but that idea the twt user mentioned to me was just tooooo good to pass up and makes sense on a canon context and i Love that #i dont rly like to diverge from canon too much if theres no explanation to it yknow? so its great
