Thank you Derek, menswear guide, for reminding me why paying more to be free advertising for brands is dumb.

This lost a bit of context in the transfer to tumblr. The people who Derek Guy is using as a springboard to talk about fashion production and copyright weren’t just wearing those clothes, they were wearing them while making NIMBY videos opposing housing developments.

So the final tweets in the thread, talking about artificial scarcity and increasing costs, are directly aimed at that irony. Scarcity of housing is the number one driver of costs. Making a video opposing new housing while wearing a $1200 hoodie that cost $20 to make is deep loser behavior.

WTF is this bullshit, Tumblr? This person is literally my mutual, and you’ve unilaterally decided I’m not allowed to access their blog because there MAY be sensitive content?

There at least used to be a button you could click to say yeah, I know, I’m fine with it, let me see them anyway. Now I can’t even do that.

Give me back my fucking mutual, you clown-assed bastards!

“came back wrong” what about Came Back Afraid. You used to be brave. Too brave maybe, defying the odds at every turn, a fighter, cocky, playing with fire, first to throw yourself at the enemy. Until one day it all caught up to you. You came back, somehow, but now you know all too intimately how it feels to lose, to die, to be destroyed. Now you flinch and freeze and cower at the slightest provocation. Who even are you now if you can’t be brave? The grave may have let you go, but the mortal fear still grips you tighter than ever.

god I just. love ruthlessness as a character trait so much. sexy sexy sexy

this one. absolutely in love with this definition. give me a character who thinks like this and I’ll love them to pieces

I love it when book quotes are attributed directly to their authors with no context because I like to imagine that unfamiliar readers are taking them directly. I like to imagine that somebody is reading this not as child soldier Marco saying this in a book about deciding whether to kill his mother for the greater good, but instead as beloved children’s author Katherine Applegate telling her young readers about ruthlessness in an interview or something.

Take the memory, leave the shell! Watch what happens when we return seashells to the beach & marine hermit crabs!

Seashells are so important to beaches for a whole host of reasons.

🐚Over-shelling can affect hermit crabs because it reduces the availability of suitable shells for them to inhabit. Hermit crabs rely on empty shells of other creatures for protection and shelter. When there are too few shells available, hermit crabs may be forced to inhabit inadequate shells & pollution as homes, which can hinder their growth and make them more vulnerable to predators and environmental stressors. This can ultimately impact their survival and reproductive success.

🐚Shells provide homes or attachment surfaces for algae, sea grass, sponges, coral and a host of other microorganisms.

🐚Animals such as decorator crabs and octopus use shells as camouflage and many fish use shells as hiding places to avoid predators.

🐚Shells help to stabilize beaches and anchor seagrass.

🐚Shells are used by shorebirds to build nests.

🐚When shells break down, they provide nutrients for the organisms living in the sand or for those that build their own shells. (Shells are a major source of calcium.) I’m a firm believer in when we know better, we do better. I once shelled, and then when I learned all of this, I returned all shells that were not sprayed with a clear varnish to the beach & watched the marine hermit crabs go wild changing shells that were so needed!

BRUH YOU SOLVED A HOUSING CRISIS

Y'know that quote about “if you’re the smartest person in the room, you’re in the wrong room”

Also applies to queerness and neurodivergency

idk how to compare those lol

The original quote’s purpose is to say that you should always seek out people smarter than you for your own intellectual development.

If I’m the gayest and most mentally ill person in the room, I need to find a room with more gay and mentally ill people for my own gay and mentally ill development.

And thats why you are on Tumblr

You get it
