when I see something dated 2019 I think “oh that’s not too long ago” and then I remember that 2019 was not only five years ago but those five years have somehow contained several lifetimes

thinking about how when you experience a lot of shame in your formative years (indirectly, directly, as abuse or just as an extant part of your environment) it becomes really difficult to be perceived by other people in general. the mere concept of someone watching me do anything, whether it's a totally normal activity or something unfamiliar of embarrassing, whether I'm working in an excel spreadsheet or being horny on main, it just makes my skin crawl and my brain turn to static because I cannot convince myself that it's okay to be seen and experienced. because to exist is to be ashamed and embarrassed of myself, whether I'm failing at something or not, because my instinctive reaction to anyone commenting on ANYTHING I'm doing is to crawl into a hole and die. it's such a bizarre and dehumanizing feeling to just not be able to exist without constantly thinking about how you are being Perceived. ceaseless watcher give me a god damn break.

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!

blinkblr 2024 Census — Results!

Hey everyone! Welcome to the first blink-182 Tumblr census! The results & data breakdown are below the cut. Beware—this is a long post.

The form received 55 responses total, though not all responders participated in all the questions, as some were not required to answer to submit the form. That being said, let's get into it!

Favorite member?

55/55 responses.

Mark Hoppus — 55.5% Tom DeLonge — 45.5% Travis Barker — 0%

Do you regularly listen to the "blink variants," as I like to call them? If so, check off all that apply.

55/55 responses. This question accepted multiple answers.

I don't regularly listen to the side projects. — 9.1% Box Car Racer — 61.8% +44 — 74.5% Angels & Airwaves — 70.9%

If you answered yes to the last question, which of the three listed is your favorite?

51/55 responses.

Box Car Racer — 17.6% +44 — 41.2% Angels & Airwaves — 41.2%

Now, what's your least favorite?

49/55 responses.

Box Car Racer — 46.9% +44 — 28.6% Angels & Airwaves — 24.5%

Which of the three is the objective best? NOT your favorite--the most well-made, the most artistic, etc.

51/55 responses.

Box Car Racer — 17.6% +44 — 17.6% Angels & Airwaves — 64.7%

This is where the pie charts start looking a little complicated!

Now on to blink. Favorite album?

55/55 responses. Even though all ten albums were listed, only eight were selected. No one likes Cheshire Cat or NINE apparently.

Happiness advice is hard to compose, since we're all born with different brains, producing different chemicals in different quantities at different levels of efficiency.

"Try regular exercise!" chirrups an influencer whose brain has never known a day of depression in its squiggly grey life.

But I do think I've noticed behaviours that poison joy, and I haven't ever heard it as advice. My theory: bullying is bad for your happiness.

Of the four types of bullying, three of them - intimidation, humiliation and harassment - are usually committed by insecure people, trying to make themselves feel more powerful by taking that power from another.

(The fourth type of bullying is exclusion, and I have no citations for any of this, since it's just a bunch of stuff I reckon. I do think I'm right though, for what it's worth.)

The least happy comedians I've met are the ones who smoke weed in their flats while watching and scoffing at clips of their rivals. Their enemies. Their friends.

I'm slightly transfixed by the story of a relatively well-known comedian who became obsessed with the Instagram stories of an amateur comic. The established comic would watch the videos, share them with friends, play them at parties - mocking the comic's lack of self-awareness.

This newer comedian wasn't internet famous or anything. Just a guy starting out, trying his hand.

To operate like this, you must believe that some people have value, and others do not. Once you've decided this, how can you expect your brain to permanently accept that you're one of the worthy? You can make yourself feel powerful in the short term by humiliating another. But in the long term, you curate a worldview where a person's eccentricities are a reason they deserve to suffer.

Good luck enjoying what you see in the mirror.
