i want to share with you some of my favourite graffiti from Pompeii

“Weep, you girls. My penis has given you up. Now it penetrates men’s behinds. Goodbye, wondrous femininity!“ 

“Amplicatus, I know that Icarus is buggering you. Salvius wrote this.“ 

“We two dear men, friends forever, were here. If you want to know our names, they are Gaius and Aulus.“

“Floronius, privileged soldier of the 7th legion, was here. The women did not know of his presence. Only six women came to know, too few for such a stallion.“

“On April 19th, I made bread.“

“ I have buggered men.“

“If anyone does not believe in Venus, they should gaze at my girlfriend.“

“It took 640 paces to walk back and forth between here and there ten times.“

“Chie, I hope your hemorrhoids rub together so much that they hurt worse than when they every have before!“

“Epaphra is not good at ball games.”

“Two friends were here.  While they were, they had bad service in every way from a guy named Epaphroditus.  They threw him out and spent 105 and half sestertii most agreeably on whores.“

“Secundus likes to screw boys.“

bought a unicycle

a list of very silly things my friend (the himbo) has told me about

tag yourself

this dude has, apparently:

accidentally re-enacted a scene from the exorcist by throwing up in school while a teacher just randomly started preaching at him? like he's being violently sick and this teacher is just standing over him like "this is the perfect time to tell you about our lord and saviour jesus christ"

got drunk and threw a bed, while his mother was on it

tried to take his pet snake for a walk

got drunk another time (two days ago, when i was with him) and suddenly made friends with these two middle-aged guys in the bar, both built like brick shithouses, and gave them both a hug before we left

got threatened by a dude with a really tiny knife

#he texted our group chat earlier with a photo of his unicycle #he bought it along with a self-help book and a gym membership #i think he's having a premature midlife crisis

So we all know that Tumblr is US-centric. But to what degree? (and can we skew the results of this poll by posting it at a time where they should be asleep?)

Reblog to increase sample size!

#lmao i'm from the uk and right now is a time that i should also be asleep

the idea that restrooms, locker rooms, etc need to be single-sex spaces in order for women to be safe is patriarchy's way of signalling to men & boys that society doesn't expect them to behave themselves around women. it is directly antifeminist. it would be antifeminist even if trans people did not exist. a feminist society would demand that women should be safe in all spaces even when there are men there.

i got more

lesbian and gay man who are best friends

lesbian and gay man from some time when gay relationships were illegal, who get married for y'know, safety reasons and just live together and have their own relationships in secret and nobody suspects a thing

person A is weird-looking but charismatic and funny, and person B is really hot but also the most pathetic cringefail person you've ever seen

symbiotic relationships. i got no specifics for this i just like them generally

academic rivals who don't actually know anything and instead of competing for cleverness by telling each other facts and figures, they compete for cleverness by telling each other total bullshit. like "what do you mean 12 + 7 is 62? obviously the answer is 4!"

"my gender is no" x "my gender is yes"

detective x assistant who is secretly committing the crimes

king x jester

overconfident and oblivious detective x assistant who is very obviously committing the crimes but the detective still has no idea

relationship dynamics i like (can be romantic, platonic, or whatever the fuck you want!)

old lesbians

edgelord who never swears x ray of sunshine who swears like a sailor

Hawaiian shirt-wearer x goth

Hawaiian shirt-wearer x punk

Hawaiian shirt-wearer x goth x punk

built like a brick shithouse x could fit in their pocket

old lesbians who take the piss and bitch about everyone else (see also: genderswapped waldorf and statler from the muppets)

flamboyant villain x punching-bag sidekick

low-empathy unenthusiastic autistic x empathetic and excitable autistic

dad friend and older brother friend

the loveliest person you've ever met x grumpy old bastard (and they are madly in love with each other)

"oh my god i can't believe we're in love!" (affectionate) x "oh my god i can't believe we're in love." (derogatory)

old lesbians who do silly old lady things together like knitting clothes for their grandchildren and going to bingo

old lesbians who are trying to "relive their youth" so they do silly young lady things together, like going dancing and riding rollercoasters

old lesbians who commit crimes together. get caught graffitiing "janice <3 carol" on buildings at least once a week

"i want another divorce"

Frodo should've just, like, ate the ring. That probably would've helped with the horrors

#ah yes the best way to get rid of the Horrors: #death by heavy metal poisoning #lotr #lotr shitpost #lord of the rings #frodo baggins

How did Theatre Kids become the most popular people in my school. Like how the fuck did Theatre Kids get to the top of the pecking order. And why are they now the ruling class that think they're better than everyone.

#popular teenagers really are the bane of my existence #i also love how i am by definition a theatre kid but i'm not a Theatre Kid because i'm not cool enough apparently #one of my friends is a Theatre Kid and she doesn't understand why i have beef with Theatre Kids #it's because they like her #we're both autistic #but she's “knows all the words to every song from hamilton” autistic #and i'm “cries for half an hour because my routine got interrupted” autistic #in our school it's “know all the songs from hamilton or die by my blade” #anyway Theatre Kid culture at my school is elitist and exclusive and i don't like it #theatre kids #school #short rant

ONE HOUR AGO: greg abbott, who i have the great displeasure of calling my governor, is calling for the expulsion and jailing of ut austin students exercising their first amendment right to freedom of speech an assembly. every single motherfucker on the right soooo concerned about the first amendment seems to be creaming their pants over college students being brutalized and arrested for protesting. its fucking reprehensible.

Why is Tolkien so charitable regarding Frodo's missteps? After all, Tolkien conveniently and entirely blames all of Frodo's missteps regarding his handling of the ring on the ring itself.  "I do not think Frodo's was a moral failure. At the last moment the pressure of the Ring would reach its maximum -- impossible, I should have said, for anyone to resist."- JRR Tolkien. One can't imagine him saying anything remotely like this about the others who tried to take the ring. It's only Frodo's actions that Tolkien excuses by saying that anyone in Frodo's position would have done the same thing.

"one can't imagine him saying anything remotely like this about the others who tried to take the ring"

great way to tell everyone that you have no imagination.

#i'm too tired for this shit #are you a troll? you seem like a troll #seriously though the logic applies to all the characters #just because tolkien only specifically said it about frodo doesn't mean he wouldn't say it about anyone else #like. ever heard of boromir? #tolkien wrote the book he can explain it however he wants #also why is the font so massive it's freaking me out

throwback to the time my childhood best friend told me she was autistic and i couldn't believe it because my first thought was "how can you be autistic? you're just like me."

#and ten years later i was diagnosed with autism #wow. what a twist. nobody saw that coming. #throwback thursday #this is becoming a bit of a thing #this is why representation is important! #autism
