hate capitalism and its perpetual use of buzzwords just saw an ad for lemonade with "plant-based caffeine" like where the fuck else would you get caffeine if not from a plant
mutuals if we were alive 15,000 years ago and you broke your leg and couldn’t run from danger or hunt for food i would carry you to safety and bring you only the best nuts and berries until you were better again
chief requirement to become a madrigal husband: chug a gallon of LOVE MY WIFE juice with every square meal
[ID: a series of drawings of various characters from encanto recreating the meme of will smith presenting his wife. each one is done in vibrant colours against a rectangular backdrop of solid colour, white hearts swarming enthusiastically over the characters’ heads. one: agustin, smiling widely, presents julieta, who swats at him as she leans away, one hand cupping her cheek and the edge of a bashful grin. the background is warm, bright yellow. two: felix, grinning, presents pepa, who throws her head back in laughter, one hand on her hip and the other over her heart, a rainbow arcing behind her. the background is vivid red. three: mariano, sappily smiling, presents dolores, who returns his adoring gaze, leaning closer to him with both hands clasped to her chest. the background is an intense blue. end ID.]
bonus: chief requirement to be a madrigal grandkid: want to be included in everything
[ID: grayscale drawings of the remaining madrigal grandchildren and an additional bruno recreating the meme themselves. one: isabela and mirabel enthusiastically present a flustered but appreciative luisa, who reaches up to touch the flower crown isabela has grown on her head. two: camilo (in the form of nightmare bruno) and antonio present a bewildered and alarmed bruno, who glances between the two of them, hands raised in surrender. antonio actually holds up a rat who strikes the will smith pose for him. three: camilo stands before the portrait of abuelo pedro, pointing at it with his thumb and saying: “do you think i should—” only to be cut off by another speech bubble which says, in all caps: “no, camilo.” end ID.]
i hate the normalization of boys being predatory in their youth, especially in media. i can’t count how many times i watched a movie or show and there was like a 12 year old boy who was staring through womens windows while they were getting dressed or groped a female classmate and the adults were just like “oh boys will be boys!” and the fathers would be like “well he’s just at that stage” and if he did it to a grown woman then she’d be like (scripted of course) “you’re at that age huh” like it’s so gross but it’s also incredibly dangerous. it creates a cultural mindset that that shit isn’t very predatory and rapey and that men can get away with doing anything to women because “well they’re just boys, you know how guys are, men have needs” etc. end that shit while they’re young. don’t let it go unchecked and allow another man to become a rapist because he thinks it’s fine and acceptable behavior.
“tiktok is a creating a generation of young people with short attention spans who can’t focus on anything for more than 15 seconds” well me and my friends over on tumblr.com have been talking about horse plinko for many a century now so
bro it’s so fucked up that some people think tumblr is full of harry styles fans who post sunset beach photography and girls with green hair and guages who post stoner gif selfies. if i saw anything like that on my dash at this point i’d know it was ironic immediately
my unpopular opinion is that i hate tiktok because now people just publicly watch loud ass videos in public spaces with no regard for anyone else. 100% it was not this bad with youtube, it’s such a different thing with tiktok. put on headphones. you are grown.
Look at this family, a glowing constellation
So full of stars and everybody wants to shine
But the stars don’t shine, they burn
And the constellations shift
