the twitter migrants complaining about the way tumblr functions are so funny because they will say things like “you mean i have to FOLLOW people? i dont get posts spoon fed to me by an algorithm???” like yeah these are positives on an unrelated note is your attention span doing alright
me: “yeah I dated a guy in high school who came out as gay. it was before i knew i was a boy so needless to say it didn’t work out”
coworker: “damn dude was preordering”
other things this coworker (who is a cis guy) has done/said:
—got confused about why I’d never been a boy scout because he forgot i was trans
—told me he was gonna get top surgery scar tattoos to match me after i get mine
—laughs at all my trans jokes, even if they’re supremely unfunny
—calls me big dog (and him little dog) even though he is about as tall as two of me
— “I can’t believe she would say that transphobic thing to you. In June? Pride month?”
wait how could i forget!!!
—heard i was trans when i started working there but thought i was trans in the other direction so got offended on my behalf when he heard people calling me “he/him”
nothing I can say on this blog will be funnier than the things that come from this boy’s brain
“biblical angels” you do realise there are angels in the old testament that are literally just regular looking guys, right? you do know that the hallucinogenic incoherent descriptions are in like. two books. and the rest of the time angels are just guys. you know that, right?
and I’m not saying don’t have fun with weird angels. I’m saying, either the eldritch forms are for special occasions, or the society of the angels is Many-Eyed-Many-Winged-Interlocking-Circles, Four-Faces-Six-Wings, and Mike.
I think one of the goals of society should be that someone who requires expensive medicine and a lot of care can live an amazing life, the longest life they possibly can, with dignity, even if they have no friends or family or anyone who cares enough about them to help. the goals of a society should be to make life better than if we are alone, society should want life to be as good as possible for as many people as possible, and those goals should account for people not having social support networks.
social life aside, the most hated or ignored person in town should be able to live as good and fair and just of a life as the most loved person in town. survival needs to stop being a popularity contest.
There is no ‘rest of the Mona Lisa’ - it doesn’t exist.
Tech bros fundamentally don’t understand art, and it’s why all AI art looks ugly as sin.
The mona lisa was actually a landscape painting but this random woman decided to just like sit there and block the view and da Vinci just rolled with it
i feel like the fundamental issue that i have with AI art is that it misunderstands why art is interesting. it’s not just about a production of images. like yeah of course it can produce images. neat! fun trick! but what makes art interesting is that a person made it. like fundamentally that’s what makes it interesting. an ai did some math and was like “this line has to continue so it’s going to continue.” like, ok? whatever? i wanna know about her eyebrows and the decision to leave them on or take them off. a person decided that. da vinci developed a whole set of skills and talents and then used them and made decisions about why, some technical, some based on vibes, some probably to do with some random thoughts he was having at the time, some probably, yes, based on math and continuity of lines. what’s interesting IS THAT a person made it!!!! not just the thing itself!! if pretty landscapes themselves were the interesting thing we’d all just go stand and stare at mountains!!!
idk like this guy being like oOoOo My Robot Painted A Mountain like ok that’s great for your robot i simply do not care
that scene in cap 2 when nick fury took that sharp turn and lost the fake cops after him and the gunshots subsided and his gps thing was like ‘getting you to a secure location’ and you really thought, you Really Thought!!!! he was Safe But then it got TOO quiet and fucking ominous music started playing in the background and the previously unfocused camera focused on this dude, decked in ALL Black, in the middle of the fucking street, holding a fucking Bazooka, and He BLOWS up furys suv, sees it coming straight for him, and takes ONE(1) nonchalant step to the Side???: UNPARALLELED
i just liked watching the 2012 avengers be absolute disasters like…clint and natasha casually are getting drinks together which is the most normal thing, steve is the only loser going down to the streets to sweep them (which loki rightfully makes fun of his stick-in-the-ass personality), tony’s wearing axe bodyspray and telling off higher authorities like a drama queen (“GET YOUR H A N D S OFF ME-”), the hulk is punching elevators and complaining about stairs and then flips out in the lobby about said-stairs, and then thor is utilizing his hammer as an AED having no idea it would work which is now canon from fanfic this is unbelievable
