My brain during sane hours of the day: “I have a good job with benefits, a stable social network with supportive friends and family, and I’m a nerd who thrives on advanced technology. Also, I dislike the taste of fish.”
My brain on Tumblr at 3:30am: “Y’know, abandoning all technology and leaving civilization behind looks like a lot of fun! And I could teach the kids how to build a fish trap!”
Me: watching videos on all boss fights, reads up on fights in the dungeon journal, listens to raid leader explains fight, learns my class dps rotation and talents, buys all needed food and pots for raid
Me in the actual raid:
This was a world of Warcraft vauge post but I see people tag this as final fantasy 14 or gw2 and I’m just glad the feeling is universal
Just saying “I don’t watch TV” sounds pretentious, but there’s a big difference between “I don’t watch TV because I feel that the entertainment of the common masses is beneath me”, and “I don’t watch TV because I’m too busy marathoning YouTube videos of a guy 100% clearing Super Mario 64 without pressing the A button”.
people who are afraid of snakes are fuckin’ WILD, like dude, just carefully step over these fat babies’ sausage bodies and gently move the burmese python chillin’ against the door, then you become unfathomably rich. i would do this for $10. i would do this for FREE.
If I see one more fucking guilt tripping ‘why are you sleeping on X’ posts about net neutrality, the tax bill, healthcare, the judiciary, Sinclair broadcasting or ANYTHING ELSE I’m gonna walk off a pier
Because honestly, what are you doing? What is your goal? People are angry, and scared, and feel hopeless, and your plan to get them to protest is to make them feel guilty for being angry and scared and feeling hopeless. That’s not fucking motivating, it’s crushing.
‘but I put in good info in that post too!’ Yah, but you made everyone reading it feel like shit first so now instead of feeling like ‘wow this is fucked up and it’s hard but here’s a tool I can use to do my part’ ppl think ‘everything is useless and I’m a bad person god I can’t believe how fucked we are there’s no hope anyway’ and then! Not only do some of us fall into the spiral of self loathing so hard we can’t protest, the content we do send out is flat, it doesn’t provide any sort of reinforcement, but it sets up activism in the same purity culture that’s debilitating to long-term engagement. It builds up our apathy, it makes protesting *that much harder* because no one is perfect and no one can protest 24/7, no one can corner every single issue, we will quite simply die if we do.
You gotta build people up. Shit is fucked, we all know that! We don’t need the reminders! Just give us the tools and point the direction and Build. People. Up.
God Damn.
Bless every square inch of this goddamn post. Because this and the whole ‘bet you won’t reblog this’ rhetoric actually violently makes me not only want to not reblog the thing, but to actually block it. I’m not pushing your guilt trip forward.
