despite everything, tumblr IS one of the most practical social media platforms and the tagging system is one of the best i’ve seen ngl. plus it’s like the only place where i can post my edits. so yeah i’m kinda forced to stay here

I’m moving toward my goals on patreon. When I reach 300$ a month, I’ll start posting longer comics on Saturdays. If I reach 700$ a month, I can keep posting daily for the foreseeable future *and* expand the project. I could add tie-in projects like positive astrology, positive photography, and longer series that focus on specific topics like studying, writing, healing, etc. If these are things that interest you, you can pledge for just 1$here.
I mean, I’m all up for a really, really passive-aggressive bunch of girls that eventually start killing each other and forming cliques. Girls ain’t angels either. But it would louse up the metaphor, unless it became a metaphor for, IDK, social convention in general. That might be interesting.
All female Lord of the Flies would most probably be a political drama with the girls using manipulation tactics and treachery rather than brute force to hurt each other. Also expect poisoning food and drink to crop up a lot (GOT said it best – “poison is a woman’s weapon”).
Unfortunately in society we think physical = real and mental = fake, so this concept will get written off as “boring” by many.
In a world full of outrage politics and where you’re pressured to be “”””woke”””” on any and every niche sociopolitical issue, I respect the fuck out of anyone who will look the you in the eye and say “I don’t know enough about [issue] to have an opinion, and I don’t care enough to learn about it”.
three internet trends i will (regrettably) probably never grow out of:
• typing in a cresCENDO TO EXPRESS EXCITEMENT
• …………..unnecessarily……. long……….. ellipsis’
• puttinfh a typo in eveyr other word to shwo u dont really give a fukc but u actually do
also unnecessary!!!! punctuation marks??????? like…… ??? what is going on here????? i!! am!!! so!!! excited!!!!
and™ totally™ unneeded™ trademark symbols™
personally I enjoy Random Capitalisation to show things are Very Important
can we also talk about starting a sentence and then kind of just
stating something reblog if you agree
dude this isn’t even a collection of memes, this is a demonstration of internet grammar… anyone who says that when you type and communicate on the internet you lose too much inflection to get the real meaning just doesn’t understand internet syntax. the evolution of language in action.

Also 🙂 doing 🙂 this 🙂 to express 🙂 bottled 🙂 pain 🙂
or,,,,,using commas,,,,,, for elipsis’ ,,,, bc,,, it sounds better,,, in your head,,,, than periods,,,,,,,

Is it just me, or did anyone else read all of these with different tones of voice, volume, and inflection?
Don’t forget the B I G S P A C E S F O R E M P H A S I S
the reason I like tumblr is because it’s so easy not to be found here. I don’t have to worry about people from real life being able to find me bc I can hide my blog from search engine results. I can be openly gay here and have a little space to myself to explore my interests and stuff. Social media has always made me really anxious as I’m a naturally reserved person. I’m reluctant to use such widely used sites like Instagram and twitter because I don’t want my family or friends I’m not too close to find me on there ! And also why the fuck do twitter and Instagram make your following and likes public
exactly like these sites DEMAND access to your contacts and phone number and even when you say no they still recommend you to other people based on your phone number and real life proximity to other users. That’s so fucking creepy. I do so miss the old days of the internet where everything wasn’t so connected to your day to day life.
