#I can sing Taikatalvi by Nightwish#and also the non-English part of We Know the Way from Moana#in both cases because I really like them as songs and want to do them justice

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!

dark secret
my darling's fearless, so she boasts.
she's not afraid of vengeful ghosts
or creatures creeping from the mist
or many things that don't exist.
she doesn't like to get on boats
but that's a sickness, as she notes,
just like the others on the list
of things she can't as well resist.
not that there's shame in fear of sharks
just like her caution of the dark;
it's not that shadows give her fright,
only the things they keep from sight.
she'll greet the strangers in the park
and meet the gaze of dogs that bark
untroubled by their threatened bite
so long as leads are tethered tight.
out of the sea, she doesn't fret
whilst others worry to get wet;
on swimming trips she's known to thrive
as long as they don't make her dive.
and it's not fear that makes her sweat
when challenged by such major threats
as swarming bees around their hive;
it's just her instincts to survive.
just like the thunder of the swarm
it's wise to hide away from storms
or likewise rumbling motorbikes
in case of sudden lightning strikes.
a fear of dentists is the norm,
but not for her, so I'm informed;
she simply hates their metal spikes
as one of her astute dislikes.
she isn't fond of modelled clay,
and hates Wallace and Gromit, say,
whilst always letting vomit spout
at just the scent of Brussels sprouts.
and if one spider creeps her way
she'll then be wracked with fear all day.
she's brave, or something thereabouts,
save for the things that creep her out.

Crops up reasonably often in mind control kink stories to be honest, like there's often an FBI specifically for Sexy Hypnosis Crimes.
(amazingly this has nothing to do with that humanpetguy post I just replied to)
one of my favorite fetish worldbuilding tropes, because of how fucking dumb and unreasonable it is, is the Federal Department of Kinky Shit.
It's the very specific thing that happens where it turns out in your setting, there's a Government Agency that does Kinky Shit.
Like you gotta go to the Big Testing Center when you turn 21 to find out if you're gonna be turned into a ponygirl, by the USDHA: The United States Department of Human Agriculture.
or maybe you get a letter in the mail, and oh no! your number has come up in the Slut Lottery. What's that mean? Why is there a slut lottery? NO TIME TO EXPLAIN, IT'S JUST HOW IT IS! GET TO SLUTTIN'
It kinda makes me want to write one of these stories just so I can try to write a backstory that explains WHY IN THE FUCK their world is like this and no one seems to complain.
It's basically the same trope as "medieval village sacrifices a maiden every year to The Dragon" but modernized.
Now there's a Government Agency in charge of Feeding Virgins To Winged Reptiles, and everyone is just fine with that. Apparently the supreme court said it was okay, or we had a constitutional amendment to give the government the power to turn young adults into meals for wyverns. How did that get ratified, anyway? You seriously got 38 states to vote in favor of taking citizens and feeding them to a monster?
This would almost be a commentary on the heartlessness of the draft except they're clearly way too horny about it. It's like instead of saying "the draft is like a monster that eats our children and we just smile and wave the flag", they're saying "the draft is a monster that eats our children and I'm masturbating to it"

So Fox News ran a story about how they think libraries are turning into drug-infested sex dens and I am shocked, shocked that I was never offered any drugs during my 15+ years working in libraries.

<- Clueless
You mean like Adam is the metaphorical prophet, carrying his family's legacy of predicting the apocalypse, and Anathema is the antichrist? Yeah I can see that. Anathema is a MUCH better name for an antichrist!

Perry the Platypus has to follow both of them religiously so that he can effectively plan solving both sets of their neuroses at once.
Candace and doofenshmirtz would be tumblr mutuals i think
#Perry carries the collective mental health of the entire series#on his tiny semi-aquatic shoulders#Phineas and Ferb

At some point in your life, you were taught that being slightly annoying is an unforgivable sin. Maybe it was by your parents or a teacher or a friend or a bully or an older sibling. But someone taught you that being slightly annoying is a crime punishable by death.
You must unlearn this.
You must accept that all people will be annoying at some point or another in their lives, maybe all of their lives, and that this is okay. It is okay for strangers on the bus, it is okay for children in the grocery store, it is okay for people on social media, and it is okay for you.
If you ever want to truly love your fellow humans, if you ever want to truly love yourself, you must have forgiveness for being annoying.

Sorry CaptainWarbuckle, we may have... got worse at it...
It’s practically 2014 and you guys still don’t know how to google if an article is real or not before giving it 100,000 notes

Superhuman ability to concentrate is definitely tempting,
But I like the idea of dust never getting into my electronics sliiightly more.

HOW could you compile this list and leave out The Demented Cartoon Movie??
If ANYTHING from that era is seared into my brain, it's from that.
#granted a lot of the comedy in that movie was visual and/or built up through dialogue#not instant hit quotes#I tend to remember entire dialogues rather than singular quotes

suspended in air
at night the little birds don't sing,
under the shelter of the stars,
the cover of a mother's wing
the blanket of silent dark.
but tucked under that velvet dome
they hear the tune of their surrounds;
of family, comfort, hearth and home,
and there could be no sweeter sounds.
they gently lay their heavy heads
and set their bodies down to rest
upon a warm and feathered bed
the air that fills their mother's chest.
the fledglings don't know how to fly
but drift off on that loving breeze;
suspended on her captured sky,
their nest of tiny broken trees.
they dream of music not yet heard,
to later spread on rested lungs.
above the babble of our words,
the lullaby of humansong.
