#Facebook is the actual worst

[taylorhawkins]

I didn’t know how to word this, but this person said it perfectly

It’s really strange (and annoying) seeing people sort of outright deny much of the lyrics on BHWA are about Taylor… I guess because they’re too raw for them?? The Atlantic article confirmed Hearing Voices is entirely about him yet I still see people straight up being like “no way”. Same with The Glass, or the title track… with Rest, it’s bizarre to me the way people think it’s either black or white and that it can’t possibly be about both losses woven together. I’ve also seen Nothing At All referred to as “too sexy to be about grief” which genuinely boggled my mind. Lmfao like what??

God forbid a man express his love in such a way for his best friend who also happens to be a man. FFS I can’t even fathom how maddening it must be to have to deal with people digging into your every lyric and being certain they know what you meant even though they’re way off, plastering it all over the internet, and all of the other total bullshit speculation & cruel comments…on top of the grief. This is the kind of shit that drives some musicians literally fucking insane and they’re not even dealing with loss. Dave Grohl is an incredibly strong spirit.

#I’m annoyed #thank God they’re not doing press #Facebook is the actual worst #reddit can be pretty annoying too #foo fighters #taylor hawkins #dave grohl #nate mendel #chris shiflett #pat smear #rami jaffee #but here we are era #grohlkins

Cis occultists be like: i dig the imagery of baphomet and the divine rebis and the immaculate androgynous and use it all the time in my practice, but if I saw a trans person's pre op body I would throw up

#its actually shocking going into pagan and occult spaces and witnessing all the new ways they justify their bigotry #like bruh i rather deal with good old fashioned bigotry than whimmywhammy abracadabra new age bigotry LOL #And its just very. very funny to me how #many western occult practices use images and concepts of: the rebis. the divine androgynous. the intersection of binaries. etc etc #but then turn around and say shit like #'actually trans people cant be true thelemites because they are at odds with their True Will uwuwu' girl what #and yes this is an argument i saw on facebook LOL #And yes i know not all thelemites or occultists are like that #but yall sure are quiet about all the written in bigotry and weird psuedofascist shit in new age occultism #if youre gonna be in these spaces consuming these things you gotta be critical of them #just like you are critical of literally every mainstream religion :) #anyway im Tired. #ooc. #tbd. #and dont even get me started on Terf druidism #transphobia cw #religion cw #not rp related. #and dont get me started on all the weird phreological type shit in modern occultism too!! #what does it matter if you Reject Mainstream Religion if youre just gonna keep on keeping on with the worst parts of religion just with #a different edgy aesthetic. #theyll rail christianity but wont lift a finger to address the same bigoted preconceptions and ideas in their own religion ugh #also yea i know technically occultism ISNT a religion but it intersects with religion and is often used within a spiritual application

Boy one of these days I'll simply snap and disappear from all social networks, tumblr included. People these days are simply insane

#social networks were the worst idea ever whoever camr with that concept should be hunted #i mean i blame facebook for that tbh at least here in brazil the ones we had before fb were actually cool #ppl nowadays use networks solely to compete to see who is more correct about whatever shit they feel like discoursing

speaking of your coming of age movie that never happens & your narrative non-narratives, shoutout to the arcs that’d be supposedly “worse” lmfao like posts about people-pleasers being like “i’m in my villain era” when it’s just consciously prioritizing themselves at all / noting when boundaries for their own wellbeing are being trampled, and the like. wherein i’m like, well i like talking to people i suppose, i can do the hours of monologue at a wall for one mode, got chatterbox mode, funny guy theatrical mode, etc, but in actuality also, i do not like talking to people lmao. the “yeah, that’s me” movie ending with another voiceover while upbeat music plays & you’re cheerfully walking along in 0.75x speed through some picturesque arena filled with socializing people like =) putting on headphones, turning up the volume, ignoring everyone, dodging people according to the berth one wants to maintain,

#i mean in person i like to be somewhere Parallel to other ppl; but there By Myself technically lol #i also am down for / enjoy spontaneous fleeting interactions w/randos but ofc only the actually good ones; which can sure be rare #and naturally Online interactions have a lot more flexibility than [not having that option] but even then. #like on just one point: being in a ''fandom'' like no thanks at all ever lol even when it comes to relatively niche things #j'etadore quantent being Just Me Posting To Myself. i absolutely do not want to talk to anybody about winston billions. #posts are scrolls i've nailed to a door to be perused if someone wants. take it or leave it; i've given it & left #meanwhile Not In Person chats aren't even enough lol like; need more Delay than a live chat; also too much to say just like irl anyways #gotta be down for short essays at w/e weird pacing & inadvertent caginess abt what ig other ppl would find matter of factly easy to share #i.e. like What Are You Doing? type ye olde facebook status prompt material. well that's a secret / weird / not entertaining enough isn't it #not like i think oh scoff i Should be popular likable & beloved lmfao like no ofc i Know i'm not gonna come off like that. l'autistique. #to be thusly is to be generally considered unlikable / disliked. i probably don't like interacting w/an nt rando too much either. #& w/the power of [adhd] it's like yeah sure i can be the chatty Fun But Annoying person lmfao But. rather than really being begrudgingly #tolerated until ppl are just more used to you / forgive the annoyances it's like no it's just the Annoying part lol beyond that it's like #well you're also somehow still too weird & quiet so worst of both worlds right. And ofc i have Other Traits aren't just for everyone. #some classic easy to embrace shit like bit of a hothead; argumentative; opinionated; stubborn; spontaneous; a hater; cagey....lmao #much of that For Fun but the [autistic Friendly] social cues don't get read that way. plus i Can be unfriendly too ofc lmao. get outta here #like a friend group seems charming & adorably heartwarming in theory until it's like oh god but drawing on all relevant experiences?? No #the third or fourth or nth wheel falling behind on the narrow sidewalk / talked over / finding a chair on the end & ppl dont notice ur here #lowering expectations even for exchanges that Do happen. ppl can enjoy the novelty of a lengthy exchange for like; a day #on the other side of that if what's initiated is like; Brief General messages i'm like oh god lmfao now Eye can't keep up w/this style #beyond that spontaneous shit is like oh god masking. oh god double empathy misinterpretations & being treated horribly b/c of it. #Recognizing & Respecting my actual experiences rather than hypothetical ideals like no i'm Not failing by Not putting myself in more damn #situations lmfao....if i stumble into good ones then great lol. sure have done that & i don't discount the Value therein at all #just sure like [points to the wisdom of e.g. autistic ppl talking abt having to be lonely but at the gain of looking out for / appreciating #themself] like Being ''Unlikable'' or having friends(tm) but not Really / the treatment is shit / you're having to mask a ton anyways... #sure can recall experiences like idk. ppl ''being nice'' & whether on purpose or not it's like actually I'm In Hell I'm In Hell lmfao #and then even if it's not on purpose it's like ah i can't actually talk to them abt it & that's not a great endorsement for the dynamic huh #or just noting like i'm duly accepted to be on the sidelines but what am i doing wrong lmao sweating How To Earn proper Normal participation #lot of anxiety & blaming oneself & it turns out like nah can't excise the Fault of autistic / adhd / cpstdness & you're fine actually #that was ye olde times more so but it's gradual & still fairly recent being like Oh Right. more accurate ideas re: Talking To Ppl At All....

[wewontbesleeping]

the types of people who are sitting at their computer, posting long diatribes about why laughing at fucking Mitch McConnell of all people on this entire wretched fucking planet is actually Bad, are so perplexing to me. literally the definition of virtue signaling. how do you genuinely believe the shit you say. have fun voting blue no matter who while the planet burns. but hey at least you stood strong when it really matters. no, not on issues of climate change or gun control or healthcare or abortion or human rights. you stood strong on never hurting the feelings of anyone in the ruling class <3

#like yes #it would actually be great if he died LMAO #like this is genuinely one of the worst people alive #you will be stepped on for the rest of your life #also it’s genuinely funny that one of the people with the most power in our government is this fucked up rn #btw he has irreparably destroyed multiple facets of American government but it would be mean to talk about it sooo #LMAO can you tell I accidentally opened Facebook?

#let's use AI to create our ads they said. what's the worst that could happen they said. #this is an actual thing i saw on facebook #company reps were replying to comments but not about the image

#answered ask #anon #don’t reming me that i unfortunately saw this video #against my will #actually #this morning on fb jezebel has an article ‘is harry styles a bad kisser’ 💀💀💀 #but the worst was the larries in the comments #on facebook!! #leave my man alone

Got put on a PIP today for shit no one ever mentioned to me before that isn't new plus some some stuff that it is only halfway accurate

#so ya girl looking for a new job #i was gonna stay here for a bit but I'm not dumb i know what a pip means #i read ask a manager #and ok I had a very personal falling out with my boss - who was also kinda my bestie - a few months ago #but this doesnt even seem personal it seems extremely and deeply impersonal #like you couldn't even tell me this shit that had been happening for months was a problem you just go from 0 to 60 #and schedule this like its prepping me for your upcoming PTO but then three minutes into the meeting the CEO busts into the conference room #so also like why you being so weirdly sneaky about this man #on second thought this might be a little personal #but let the record show he's the one who fucked up first and pulled some real bitch ass shit #did i act up outside of work about it ya a bit not my proudest moment #i accept i kinda fucked up there only bc in addition to being a bestie who just fucked me over he is also actually my boss #AND HR!!!! #(my other work bestie has been saying 'told you hr is not your friend' since) #and im like ya i know i always knew i told you i knew the stakes!! #anyway don't text hr 'WHAT THE FUCK' on facebook even if they send you the worst shit before immediately logging off for the day #even if you know theyre the shittier person there you are still the one who looks worse on corporate paper #thankfully he did not actually ever write me up for that specifically it has just colored things since #including my treatment of him HE DOES NOT EXIST HE IS DEAD TO ME #my last supervisor was so horrible to me i went on medical leave bc of how bad she was triggering my PSTD #and i talked to her more in any given day than ive talked to you this month buddy #i hope you remember how many 'i really value our friendship' messages you sent me #which i never responded to with anything other than fumbling inability to accept love or sincerity #and i hope you feel bad! #i hope you spend a lot of time thinking how you fucked that up!! #i hope you always feel a little pang of 'ah fuck' any time you remember me for the rest of YOUR LIFE #bc literally all i asked was for you to believe im trying my best #its barely even factual and i wasnt asking you to disagree with anyones opinions that i wasnt doing enough #but just to acknowledge how hard i was TRYING #(WHILE I HAD COVID AND SPORADIC FEVERS FOR AN ENTIRE FUCKING WEEK FUCK YOU)

[milfbro]

Why are writting communities so toxic btw? What about them makes them so prone to people being horrible?

#is it just that they draw in a lot of xtian moms? #we know they are all living in a bubble of facebook groups that are basically circles of shame and manipulation #is it just cause they're in the periphery of power but don't actually have it thenselves so they learned (correctly) that they can only #get power by being the absolute worst? #idk idk

I have no idea why anyone would want to use Facebook regularly. Every time I go on Facebook to try to see what’s going on with people I know irl, 90% of the posts are ads or suggested posts by pages I don’t follow and the posts from actual people I do see are from like the same four “friends” that I don’t actually care about with the occasional actual life update from people I know and the only way to change my feed is to prioritize certain people but I don’t have particular people I want to keep up to date with, I’m just curious about what’s going on with everyone

#It’s the only social media that involves people I actually know #and it is the absolute worst social media for keeping up to date with people that you actually know #very different from the website I joined in 2008 #like It’s completely unnavigatable i don’t understand it’s appeal #twitter is kinda like this but it shows me way more of people that I follow than Facebook #and at least the stuff it suggests is stuff that interests me #since I mainly use Twitter for following politics and celebrity tea #i know we all know Facebook sucks and I’m not surprised it’s just really annoying #and i don’t understand why anyone would choose to use this regularly

"but i don't want you to do your research, I want you to listen to me" MOM OH MY GOD THAT IS EXACTLY THE PROBLEM! how am i related to someone so fucking dense???

#ruby rambles #like i don't get it things were fine on the little spa getaway we actually were able to have a conversation #and then there's days like today where it's just an endless stream of unverified shit she read off facebook #extremely funny though how when I was growing up she rightly pointed out that morality and politics are directly tied to intelligence #because uh. yeah! sure is! and it shows; full offense! #i hate getting so mad but she acts like a god damn child when I debunk the articles she sends me with multiple sources #and I can't even fight back when she is like this bc i already have trauma from 1 abusive parent #so I just kind of. lock up when she gets like this bc that's my default response to being yelled at #which of course as you know; a lot of people seem to think that means they automatically win if you take too long to say anything #which is total bullshit by the way in case that wasn't obvious #worst part is she's definitely going to talk to my brother about this later to try and ''win him over'' #and sadly it will work because he's so broken at this point to disagree

#d speaks #i gotta stop asking questions on facebook in spaces where people don’t take shit as good faith #like i’m so fucking tired of tryna learn something and then suddenly i’m in a fight in an arby’s. why the fuck #i try. so very hard to be kind and give off all the ‘i am solely asking this because i am genuinely confused and interested’ vibes i can #and yet sometimes it’s still like oops now people are angry reacting me acting like i said something wildly offensive #and like i know! sometimes shit IS wildly offensive but i promise that’s not actually the case here unless ur doing that thing #where you decide what somebody else’s intentions are and read everything they say in the worst evilest possible way #and it’s exhausting !!!! some ppl are truly just. way too ready for a fight #god i sound so annoying saying any of this rn but i need to rant it somewhere or i won’t be able to sleep #and i need to sleep tmw is gonna be a stressful day for all parties!!!! #so here i am. in the tags of a tumblr post. bitching about how i trip into facebook fights with NTs and how ANNOYING IT IS

[whyfish]

nothing activates my fear almonds like a facebook laugh react on a serious post

#imagine being Internet Buttmad enough to hit 'laugh' every time the algorithm shows you a sponsored post about #some innocuous shit like 'vaccines are good actually' or 'lgbtq people exist' #people who do this are my personal enemy #i shouldn't even be on facebook. it is a silly place #and by silly I mean not a place of honor nothing valued is there #just an algorithmically curated diarrhea drip of the worst human beings you've never met #most socmed is like that though tbh #idk why the laugh react specifically in that specific context is so vile but it just. it just is. #this post brought to you by I drank 2 mojitos at dinner time ask me nothing

Had a dream last night that I was sitting in the backseat of a car, my dad in the driver's seat, my brother (at least, a guy who I instinctively knew was my brother, but it wasn't my actual brother) sitting next to me. We were parked in a car park, we wanted to go shopping, but a few members of staff were outside, telling us that there was a bomb scare and we couldn't go in yet.

We waited a bit, but when the staff members left, my dad figured it would probably be fine. He said 'we only need a few bits anyway' and so we went in, we entered through a back entrance and a stairwell that turned out to be the fire escape. We got inside, it was a shopping centre and it was eerily empty. My dad was going through his written list as always, but the atmosphere felt off, and I desperately wanted to leave. (read more bc this one's kinda long)

An old woman suddenly appeared, looking angry and weirdly kind of scared to see us. She asked what we were doing inside and told us we had to leave now, she was very aggressive but I still thought she seemed more scared than angry. We left, but halfway down the fire escape stairs we realised my brother had vanished.

We called up for him, and were about to go back up to look when he appeared, rushing down the stairs, and was like 'we need to go NOW' but wouldn't say why. We were all a bit scared now, we literally ran down the stairs and through the car park, not able to relax until we got in the car and drove off.

We arrived home, my dad got out of the car and my mum was there. Again, it wasn't my actual mum, it was a different woman, but I knew it was my mum. My brother was peering out of the car window at her, I caught a glimpse of her talking to my dad but then my brother moved his arm in a way that obscured my view of her face.

Suddenly my dad went silent, and I heard my mum ask 'what's wrong?' in this sweet voice. My dad told me and my brother to get out of the car and go back to the house, and my brother was suddenly shaking next to me. I tried to lean over and see my mum, but my brother kept moving his arm to block me, saying 'don't look, you don't want to look.'

Finally I managed to find an angle where I could see, and I did instantly wish that I hadn't. My mum was still standing there, but her face had changed. Her eyes were just pure white, her face was slightly elongated and grey and almost looked like it was decaying, and she had this far too wide, permanent grin. She was looking at my dad, but as I caught sight of her, she turned to smile down at me.

Me and my brother got out of the car and ran inside, a few minutes later my mum knocked at the door, asking us to let her in. We heard the front door open, so we snuck out the back. A bus was just driving past the house, so we frantically yelled and gestured for the bus to stop for us, and asked the driver to just drop us at whatever stop was furthest from the house.

The rest of the dream becomes a bit jumbled, but I remember seeing the old woman from the shopping centre again, who explained that this entity or whatever was after us specifically, and they could have taken care of it somehow if we hadn't gone in and ruined everything and allowed it to find us. Now somehow we were all going to turn into those creatures and the world was going to end?

At the end of the dream, me and my (not) brother tried to escape the creature by killing ourselves. We jumped off a building, but it didn't work. I remember lying on the ground in horrible pain, unable to breathe properly, I think my ribs were broken, and I could hear our not-mum walking towards us, saying 'good effort! But you should have jumped from a little higher. Bad luck' and then she picked my brother up by his throat and lifted him off the ground. I looked up, and already I could see his face was changing, like it was starting to decay, and his eyes were clouding over white.

And then I woke up.

#personal #dream #this one contains a suicide attempt mention #god it creeped me out #and then THE WORST #i opened facebook immediately after this dream #FIRST THING I SAW was a screenshot from the short horror movie lights out on youtube #with this creature's grinning face #it looked EXACTLY like the thing in my dream #minus the decay and holes in the face #i actually yelled FUCK and dropped my phone #terrifying

know this one person (person A) who along with their bf (person B) is besties with my roommates and we’ve all been hanging out lately and i get along really well person B and have had some good chats with A but i’m convinced that A hates me because i added them on facebook and it’s been a couple weeks with no acceptance

#AND i’m 80% sure i actually added them before this and they deleted it #cause i have deja vu but i didn’t remember until after i (presumably) DID IT AGAIN 😭 #this is why i never friend request people #they’re a goth aquarius and i am a more normie aligned gemini #i just have my books and my creative writing degree and botanical tattoos #worst part is they very much enjoy my TWIN sisters company #but i just think they secretly don’t like me #i wonder if it’s because their boyfriend seems to want to be my friend #or maybe i have said something wrong #and i NEVER question these kinds of things i usually am very sure of my impression #but i always assume my sisters alt friends judge me cause i don’t get their jokes lol #i’ve never seen austin powers sue me! #mine #personal #and it also sucks cause i really respect this person #i don’t want to be their bestie or anything but like. a facebook friend is surely fine! but apparently not
