in my experience if you're learning a language but you're worried about not pronouncing it right or sounding ridiculous in front of native speakers, I'm here to tell you that most people do not care. they don't care if you have an accent or if your mother tongue is peeking through, because in all honesty, everyone has an accent. it's unfair and frankly unrealistic to expect people to bear no remnants of their native tongue when speaking another. you've spent your entire life speaking your language, interacting with the world in it; your understanding of language is built on your native one and its natural sounds. no one can expect you to entirely shift how your brain processes words and sounds. most native speakers will just appreciate you trying at all. if it's comprehensible, if the gist of what you're saying gets across, then it's good enough. if you're trying, your accent is fine.

everyone saying "but the french-!" you're absolutely correct. this is a general statement to which french is the exception

Stuff kids on tumblr better relearn

1. You are responsible for your own media experience. 

2. There is such a thing as a healthy level of avoidance towards topics that make you feel unwell or even (in a real-life clinical definition of the term) trigger you - but you are the one to actively take care of what you view.

3. Avoiding does not mean policing others.

4. You have no right to tell artists to censor themselves - you may criticize what others do, you may dislike it, that’s fine - but actively asking for censorship when you could easily unfollow or block a person just makes you look incompetent in your use of the internet.

5. Do not give people on tumblr or /any/ website the responsibility for your emotional well-being. Because these people do not even know you so no, you have no right to ask them to take care of you.

6. Content creators are not your parents and owe you nothing, not even a breakdown on why their content isn’t problematic. You don’t get to demand a dissertation denouncing any and everything unhealthy in a piece you don’t like. Move on.

7. Tagging is a nicety but not an obligation. You can message people, politely, and ask them to tag things, and many people will, but understand that it’s their blog and they aren’t obliged to say yes. Unfollow and block when you need to. Circling back to number 1, you are responsible for curating your own experience.

8. Don’t be a jerk. Remember at the end of the day, there are actual living, breathing people behind each screen name. Don’t say anything you wouldn’t say to someone’s face in real life. 

3A. bashing is not curating your fandom experience

ppl don’t understand adhd/autistic cleaning processes. we think so far ahead it’s like,,, impossible to do shit. you want me to vaccuum my bedroom floor? okay. we need to pick up all the stuff thats on it first, though. and where are we going to put the stuff? well, theres a couple categories of Stuff- Clothes, Random Items, and Trash. Trash is easy, we just throw it away. Clothes have to be sorted into Clean, Not Clean- and then the not clean ones have to go in the laundry bag, but theres so many so i might have to start a load now- ugh, distracted. lets go back to the clean clothes. well, these go in my drawer but- my drawer is really disorganized, so i’ll have to organize the clothes first so that theyll fit and look neat. by the time i’m done with that, i’ve spent an hour and a half trying to do stuff in my room. i finally turn to random items, most of which can find a home on my desk, but others i dont really know what to do with. plus, my desk is dirty. so i have to organize my desk, figure out where everything goes, and the stuff that doesn’t have a place can go in… a box, i guess. (not like i don’t have three other boxes full of random stuff in my closet)  so i put all the items back up but now i have this box full of stuff i dont know if i need so i have to go through it, sorting it into donate and dont donate piles. i might as well throw in some clothes to, so i dig through my clothes drawer and get the clothes i dont want, throw them in there too. okay, back to the random items- the ones i dont want to donate are still here, so i have to put them somewhere. i dont have anywhere to put them- maybe i should get a shelf? i start googling shelves, figuring out which ones would be best for my room, debating prices, learning about installation, and eventually im like ‘well, already on my computer’ and i decide im going to ‘check’ social media and end up lost in it for an hour or so. you walk back in, and theres stuff all over the floor, albeit in bags and boxes, and it still hasnt been vacuumed. its been five hours since i started. how does it take five hours to clean your room? it just does. 

This post walked into my room, pointed to the three boxes of random stuff sitting in my closest right now, and then shot me.

Big-brained people in the comments keep regurgitating the same gotcha, i.e. “she says the rich should pay more money in taxes, yet she herself bought that dress with money! what a gold-digging hypocrite! liar! bad take!”

For one, she’s not even rich, but even if she was… she can have money… and also support policies that redistribute wealth. These two things are not mutually exclusive. Y’all get that, right? Or do y’all think that her support of these policies means that she has to give away her belongings and live life like fucking Oliver Twist? Does she have to show up to Congress wearing a fucking potato sack because god forbid she show support for progressive economic legislation while owning money?

This is why I can’t trust y’all when people say, “Eat the rich!” Y’all will just end up antagonizing anyone who has a bank account, you’ll fill up on bread and middle class suburban moms, and then all the while people like Elon Musk will run off to Mars.

In summary:

EDIT:

She also described on Instagram how she came to possess the dress, saying she was proud to work with Aurora James, a black female immigrant who started her own sustainability-focused design brand from a flea market in Brooklyn.

But oh yeah, of course AOC is the fucking devil and we gotta eat her. I hate this stupid fucking hell site.

Love how people in the notes are saying the dress is plain "she's at a rich people event not even wearing rich people clothing."

It's plain. Yes. The only thing of note is the gigantic saying on the back. Yes. Maybe, did you think for one fucking second, that maybe that is kind of the fucking point?

Also I don't get it do you want her to spend money or not? Make up your damn mind.

Every woman with any power is a smug hypocrite to you people. Check your internalized misogyny.

Please, never let this meme die.

This is the best one I’ve seen so far

Some guy at Chicago Pride (2018) dressed up as Spider-Man and climbed the roof to drop rainbow bead necklaces for people who spotted him.

Two other pictures my friend took from across the street

I didn’t have the best view at pride, but I was able to photograph Spider-Man! 

no cops at pride only spiderman

Prider-Man.
