Urgh. Yeah, so I have questions. Like, so many questions. And I was TRYING to be calm about it. I really was. But life has a way of yeeting the most unexpected things at you sometimes. So when SOMEONE wakes me up at three in the morning absolutely PANICKING while repeatedly SCREAMING at the top of his lungs: "I ATE CHIPS!!!" Like what. You expect me to be impressed or something? Because I'm really not, you know. It's just chips. Until, of course, I ask him to elaborate, and he tells me that they were...
PAINT CHIPS.
Like. Um.
WHY WOULD YOU EAT THAT?!
WHY WOULD YOU EAT PAINT CHIPS??!!!
In other words, we are now at the Pokemon Center. All because Meowth ate some paint chips. Why? I do not know. More on that later.
I can't keep up with all these raw emotions being shown on my screen right now, my soul basically left my body at that kiss, I can't go back to life in a society now i won't ever recover
nothing makes me go "ooooh we are NOT the same" quite like reading some post about how people talk with their parents about their interests. what do you mean you told your father about stevebucky. what do you mean he asked further questions
had a fucking hilarious dream that tumblr replaced the "block" function with the far funnier "glock" function, which did the exact same thing except whenever anyone blocked you a random bullet hole, like a png of a bullet hole, would appear on your blog. discourse blogs were unreadable bc you'd go to the page and the sheer amount of bullet hole pngs stacked over the blogs obscured everything. I woke myself up laughing
people are drawing Steamboat Willie Mickey doing all this crazy shit and whatnot, but you could always do that. you can do that now, with current Mickey, just fine. it's fanart and it's legally protected. hell you could take Disney-drawn Mickey and put a caption about unions or whatever on it and it would still be protected under free speech and sometimes even parody law.
what is special about public domain is that you can SELL him. you could take a screenshot and sell it on a tshirt. you can use him to advertise your plumbing business. people have already uploaded and monetized the original film.
you could always have Mickey say what you want, but now you can profit off it.
tw: Examples of reblog bait/people trying to guilt others into reblogging stuff. I am not actually saying the things below, they're just examples that I have seen.
I fucking hate when people say stuff like this. Especially when it's on a generally good post with valuable information. On the one hand I want to share that information because it could genuinely help someone; on the other, I don't want to spread this type of guilt-tripping and shaming and potentially trigger someone else like me. It's a lose-lose situation. No matter what I do, I am going to feel guilty. No matter what I do, I will feel like a terrible person. It sucks and I just wish people would stop doing this. I know it's shocking, but it is actually possible to make an important and useful post without guilting everyone that sees it into sharing.
Hate hate hate how when I get angry there is a physical reaction but it's not glowing eyes or growing claws or something it's crying. This feels unfair.
