I'm not seeing as many crab posts as I thought I'd be seeing today...

I am never inclined to make fun of tumblr's cheesy attempts to make money and generally support them even if you consider them cringe. Websites need money to operate and tumblr needs to find a way to make money consistently or it will cease to exist. I do not want tumblr to cease to exist, and the most common alternative method of making money is to collect and sell all of our personal data, which I do not want either. Websites that can support themselves via people willing to spend $25 bucks to commit to a bit is a sign of a brighter and more sustainable version of the internet.

I love how this show made the sweetest version of Superman we've seen in years and are now putting him through The Horrors

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but DONT take conch shells or large snail shells from the ocean!!!!! If you are snorkeling, wading, scuba diving, whatever, LEAVE THE SHELLS! You may think it’s empty. It’s most likely not.
One time I, a marine biologist, found a beautiful conch shell while snorkeling. I had 2 of my professors check that it was empty (2!!!) and guess what? I still woke up the next day to a dead, stinking hermit crab that had tried to claw its way out of my drawstring bag overnight. Hermit crabs are excellent hiders. This animal died needlessly, and what for?? A pretty shell to put on my shelf?
TLDR; DONT take “empty” conch shells from the ocean. They’re not empty.

I am late to the crabs, but here is a review
Dislikes:
The part where I try to pet them and they go ":(" and turn into money bags? The unwanted touch of capitalism destroys crab friends?
Why are they saying "hand"? Why this body part? Why ONLY this body part? Is this what they will eat first of me should I slumber in the Tumblr deep?
Likes:
The part where trying to pet them clicks So Many Things I Did Not Want To Click
The part where I elevated the site to new heights of unusability because crabs are kamikazeing into my mouse at every click
The part where I rendered the Summon Crabs button unusable because See Above
The part in all this where I kept starting to type "because there are Too Many Crabs" but realized that "Too Many Crabs" is not actually a state that exists
Important update: THEY WORK ON MOBILE TOO?
RIP my Tumblr app for the next 24 hours I'm going to make some FRIENDS <3

FTMs, we can take up space, do you know that? We can speak out when things make us uncomfortable and when people are talking over us. We aren't overstepping our bounds, we are allowed to have complaints about our medical treatments, our doctors, our families/friends, other people in the community. We're allowed to have our needs met. We don't need to suffer stoicly in silence.

GOD I love starkid so much they saw that idea of ‘hey musicals are kind of a strange scenario if you think about it. If people just broke out in song I’d be pretty weirder out’ and they fucking ran with that and now it’s evolved into an entire universe where the whole point is that the characters are fucked up and their world is fucked up and they all need to be traumatized in a different way every time we see them. and that’s exactly why I love starkid and their hatchetfield stories
