a time honored tradition

If you got enough money to live happily and comfortably for the rest of your life, but everyone who saw you immediately knew what fandom you are in and understood what that means, would you take it?

#immediate yes are you kidding #I have a reputation in a group I go to for being ''the one who likes teeth'' because they recognise all the danhausen merch #at least this way they'd understand WHY teeth #either that or everyone understanding american rock band my chemical romance #I have no shame about either

Disclaimer these are just a small sampling of some possible writer traits I’ve noticed either in myself or in fics I read. Also consider a rb for sample size !

screw “what would kill a victorian orphan”, reblog and put in the tags what would make 14-year-old you explode

Translation: What a shitshow. This years Eurovision has gone to hell. And it's first and foremost the EBU's fault.

Also, excerpt from the same article:

Throughout the course of the Eurovision Song Contest, the EBU has acted as if they live in a parallel universe. Eurovision is one thing, the world outside something else. The EBU has stuck its head in the sand. Shoved the problem under the rug. Held their hands over their ears and shouted LALALALALA. They appear to have done everything they can to pretend it's possible to hold an apolitical event in a world that's on fire. We have come together to be "united by music", they say, but the sharpshooters on Malmö's rooftops have nothing to do with us! In its struggle to remain apolitical, the EBU has become like a small fascist state in itself, where the artists' space for expression and action has been reduced as much as the undergarments of the Spanish dancers. It is reprehensible.

Reminder again to BOYCOTT EUROVISION 🇵🇸

Don't watch, don't vote.

#the ebu have been given so many opportunities to make better choices and they continue to double down

btw if i reblog sth and point out OP is a terf, it's not a "you should have known, why did you reblog them" thing. so I'm sorry if it comes off that way.

I just do it to let people know.

#hope this is okay to rb #please PLEASE do point it out if you ever see me reblogging from terfs! they are insidious and insert themselves into so many online spaces

fucking love when I'm on a call with someone and they start to do a little errand or go somewhere else and they say "and you're coming with me" like. absolutely I am let's go on an adventure I've been spirited away

Message for my fellow white people: this is about someone shining a huge spotlight on abuse and calling out an abuser, it's not just some fun drama to gossip about until you move on to something else. If you can't grasp it's something way bigger and more important than '"two guys beefing'' then you don't need to insert yourself into conversations about it

#the amount of straight up offensive takes I'm seeing trivialising this whole thing is not surprising but it fucking sucks #it's not even my place to be saying this shit but unfortunately some people will only listen if it comes from a white person so #I'm saying it once then I'm shutting my mouth and minding my own business #black people on tumblr have to suffer so much nonsense I'm sorry #kendrick lamar #drake

Having dating apps is pointless. The love of your life is on Tumblr

#tumblr is a dating app if you do it right #worked for me at least

Please unfollow me if you're going to watch Eurovision.

I'm not going to bear with that lack of sympathy for Palestine.

they're really ignoring and putting under the carpet the genocide that is happening to this day, unfortunately since more than 70 years and still they're openly supporting Israel and allowing them to compete.

A country with real people who is everyday a victim of these oppressor cunts is actually dying, that's more important than a lame ass music festival, there is a lot of those.

#I say this as someone who grew up watching it every year and watched it with my friends as a community activity #you cannot ignore the double standards displayed by who is allowed to compete in eurovision and who gets barred #any plausible deniability is gone. watching at all is saying you're willing to ignore genocide for your own entertainment #for former eurovision fans or non-eurovision fans who want to see an example of a former eurovision act platforming palestinian voices #check out klefi/samed by hatari ft bashar murad #bashar is absolutely worth looking into! thoroughly recommend his work to everyone! it's political palestinian pop music #you may remember hatari as iceland's act in 2019 who were punished for holding up palestinian flags when their votes were announced #which they did because the contest was held in tel aviv. they were open about their support for palestine then and were punished for it #they then released the above song written with and performed with a palestinian artist and filmed the video in palestine #and have continued to use their platform to speak up and speak out #for anyone not quite grasping it maybe an easy fandom comparison will help #if you're watching eurovision then you now know exactly what you would've done in the hunger games universe: absolutely nothing. #because you are willing to ignore children dying as long as you get to watch something entertaining #all the glitter and showmanship in the world cannot cover up this amount of violence #palestine #eurovision

(for the purposes of this poll, there is no monkey's paw situation: the chore you pick stays the same level of difficulty/grossness/etc. as it normally is for you, and you only have to do it as often as you want to. the chores you don't pick are magically done for you exactly the way you'd want them to be, just with zero effort on your part.)

The urge to bother my mutuals

life advice: if ur cishet male friends dont let u call them babygirl theyre not worth it. but also this is dangerous bc then u’ll buy them a coffee at starbucks and they’ll say thank u daddy and u will automatically respond ur welcome babygirl and then the entire starbucks will be staring at u bc it is 2:45pm on a wednesday. this may happen multiple times. do with this what u will

#throwback to when I was in college and was designated Class Sugardaddy because I got staff discount at the coffee shop #an adult man going ''coffee time daddy?'' is one hell of a way to be asked if you're heading to the cafeteria yet
