Tell me why my middle school was named a f t e r a tiger statue

I'm beginning to think that if you have to google what a social cue is and when reading through the Wikipedia article on social cues you're like...

No. No. People can't actually do this. People can't look at a person and know that much about them. This can't be real. Someone hijacked Wiki again. This is fake.

MAYBE JUST MAYBE YOU DONT UNDERSTAND SOCIAL CUES AND YOU IN FACT ARE THE ONE WHO IS MISTOOKEN AND NOT WIKIPEDIA

there in fact was a character named mr smiley that had a friend named mr frowny. and mr frowny looked like if neil gaiman had long hair.

huh. okay

this can't just be me but do you ever hear a YouTubers voice and immediately click off because you just can't stand how they sound and don't know why. even if the content itself is fine

You ever have those moments where an idea just... won't leave your head?

Somehow I completely missed the underlined portion of this conversation until just now 😭😭😭 he’s so funny when exactly was he “trying out” a middle name in conversation with Jon sksjdkcjmskxkskdmcjwjx 😭😭😭😭

he did

was at a party a couple days ago and i had cause to open up my bag o'holding (small bag inside of my regular bag where i keep all my shenanigans, band aids + whistle + sewing kit + fishing line + swiss army knife etc), and the girl next to me peered over, saw the contents and piped up "oh, so you're a wizard"

*marinette noises intensify*

marinette’s voice appreciation post because i’ve never seen one on tumblr<3

Why would you—That's not—I just wanted to ask for help, why did you have to go and make it awkward???

My one contribution to the Goncharov Phenomena is, I’ve seen people comment on how Tumblr only managed to have a nuanced conversation about a piece of media when the piece of media doesn’t exist, but...

I can’t help but think. It just isn’t the same people.

The people who bother to make memes examining the complexity of Goncharov are the same people who enjoy examining the complexity of actual media, who have been here doing that forever, who already knew how to handle a subtle take.

It’s just that the people who would usually come crashing in and derail the whole thing aren’t saying anything, because, well, faking nuanced interpretation is fun for its own sake, but faking moral outrage isn’t. 

I don’t think it’s so much that Tumblr finally learned how to handle a nuanced take, I think it’s more that the fakeness of Goncharov automatically filters out people who can’t  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

hands down one of the best pieces of subtle world building this season is the name High Five Heroes and the way it doesn't mean anything. the Bad Kids and the Maidens' names actually say something about their respective groups and what they've done/been through. meanwhile High Five Heroes is clearly a name that was handpicked by Kipperlilly long before she stepped foot in aguefort on the first day or actually met any of her party members. it's a pre-approved inside joke specifically designed in a lab to be as bland and palatable and inoffensive as possible—a middle manager's attempt at manufacturing camaraderie. the most generic, perfectly marketable name she could come up with for her Perfect, Optimal Adventuring Party.

the extremely casual in dialogue implication that Sec Unit just has drones UP IN PEOPLE'S FACES from System Collapse had me screaming and now I have to reread all the other books. How often does it describe someone's facial expression from a drone camera but now we know the drone is like, hovering RIGHT THERE 😳🛰️ lmaoooooo
