i’ve been super stressed and overworked lately so i’ve been craving a cigarette really badly but i quit years ago and i don’t really want to buy a whole pack when i know i’ll only smoke one or two of them anyway, so instead whenever i feel like i can’t take it anymore i just vividly imagine myself taking a smoke break in my head and the crazy thing is it actually makes me feel better. i feel like the 4chan burger tulpa guy.
using my psionic powers to give myself a tasty little treat without succumbing to the weakneses of the flesh
girl i know i love old boats and they got into accidents all the time and i wouldnt exactly regard an ocean liner as a not horrifying mode of transport but i just remembered we used to have those fucking balloon airships. i dont like planes myself but thank god we started making air transport out of shit that wasnt 100% flammable

domt like that
girl they used to catch fire for no reason and kill everyone
everyone suddenly getting hyped about r/place is. Hm. like, if i told you i wrote gullible on the ceiling, would you look up?
like, literally a month ago everyone was like ‘reddit sucks!! blackouts!! boycott reddit!! everyone’s moving to tumblr!!’ and now reddit brings back r/place specifically to attract people back to the platform and… everyone is just falling for it? ignore that shit! just ignore it! i don’t care if there’s cute mcyt drawings on it or you want to help make your country’s flags or whatever! reddit lets you draw with pixels again and suddenly we’re all just cool with it??? can we all just think for two seconds about this
the thing that’s interesting about r/place this time around is that like. I don’t even think it’s working. Like, look at the top half of the canvas. This is just depressing. I know flags are a long-standing tradition, but they’re basically the largest scale thing on the canvas. And those are NOTORIOUSLY easy to bot.
also critically the bottom half of the canvas is literally mostly telling spez to fuck himself.
it turns out that when you try to make a PR problem go away by giving people a medium with which to express discontent, they’ll make an ever-growing wall of just telling you to go fuck yourself. and also redraw bad apple frame by frame. god i love the internet.
when people are like “the hunger games just stole the plot of battle royale” like listen everything steals from the plot of everything the lion king is just furry hamlet westworld is jurassic park but sexier lost is edgy gilligan’s island there are no original stories and the only good piece of media is jennifer’s body
Michael crichton wrote westworld and jurassic park tho so he just pirated himself
michael crichton keeps TRYING to tell y’all about the evils of capitalism impeding on the progress of science when will y’all LISTEN
Maybe he just doesn’t like theme parks
michael crichton in line for a roller coaster at six flags: fuck this
Jesus Christ, that’s the height at which every rollercoaster and dark ride is a decapitation threat
how am I ever supposed to leave tumblr when it takes me on journeys like this
