    We can stop the spoilers, but even what we said impacts next to nothing of the end because almost none of it makes sense without all the context leading up to it. And even then it usually takes a few re-watches and some research to figure out fully. 

    Definitely nothing back there that counts as an "It was his sled" or even remotely close to a explanation as to WHY it was his sled.


  • To be fair, I didn't actually read much of it. I just felt like we were wading into dangerous territory.

    Aeris dies. :D Stab dat ho again Sephiroth and give Cloud all your love. mmmm
  • Munch munch, chomp chomp...
    Duly noted, that makes a lot of sense. I didn't mean to sound rude if I did, and the things I mentioned were more to go off of Miko's examples than anything.

    Oddly appropriate for the tumblr thread.

    Oh, the things I get away with. I love this school! *writes TEACHER IS A HAG in permanent marker on her desk*

    Why does Tumblr hate Miley Cyrus now?
  • by twerking she is appropriating black culture

    > implying one needs a reason to hate Miley Cyrus
  • ca that's mean
  • by twerking she is appropriating black culture

    I didn't know Speak! posted here.
  • I think it's more about how she sort of accessorizes black people in the music video for that one new song she released, you know, the awful awful awful one?
  • i have no idea who speak! is



    i was rummaging through my mind attempting to figure out how someone could possibly be upset by miley cyrus and that was the first thing that came to mind


    if people are legit saying that in real life i would be moderately upset, but i am already moderately upset so i guess it would not change my mood really

    i didn't know she still made music
  • i have no idea who speak! is

    a Jewish rapper who is frequently mad on the internet about things and people. Also he wants you to know that he hates white people, and he wants you to be mad about that.

    when I see Speak! write things, I understand why Odradek sometimes makes the posts he makes.

    Though really I did all my Mileybashing yesterday, so I'm kinda over it now

    also he's like cartoonishly sexist, and between him and Action Bronson that's now "cool" again. I could complain about this for awhile and go on as to why I hate it but I'm not gonna.
  • i downloaded two action bronson mixtapes a while back, but i never got around to listening to them
  • Blue Chips is pretty good but most of his other material is so-so. He gets put over beats that don't suit him a lot and he sounds really, really similar to Ghostface Killah. His music's been getting worse too, Saab Stories was really bad and a lot of the lyrics were just flat out gross.

    as a person, he's a fucking douche and if I saw him in person I'd probably spit on him.

    Speak!'s music, on the other hand, isn't even good. He disappears into the background at best and his only memorable song is "Mexican Jacket".
  • i guess that's two mixtapes i will not have to sit through then
  • I'd tentatively half-recommend Blue Chips but avoid everything else. Even his songs with RiFF RaFF.
  • apparently there is pony drama afoot


    the fact that i know this even though i have unfollowed every pony related blog i used to follow means that we are talking Sun Crusher level drama-bomb here

    Pony drama? Wow, it really has been a few days since I paid attention to Tumblr, otherwise I'd have known about this by now.

    apparently a bunch of people simultaneously came to the realisation that molestia is basically a terrible rape joke or something
  • Honestly, I have my own opinions about Molestia and such, but this "movement" is such an exercise in futility that it's really not worth bothering

    ...what

    but molestia's been a thing for like years now

    even john joseco's molestia blog has been around since like 2011

    it's a "movement"?

    Seriously? I knew that was a bad joke back when it first started, it's in the name.

    someday i will live with my boyfrond in real life and i will only go on the internet to look at music stuff and check my goddamn e-mail



    it will be glorious

    if you can call a small group of people jumping on a bandwagon that
  • man do you know how much time and emotional energy i had invested in small cartoon equines
  • Exactly as much as you should have.

    You have nothing to be ashamed of.
  • and then everything just up and fell apart and i was sitting in a pile of garbage
  • every time a fanartist drew something that was not a cartoon horse they received metric fucktons of on and off anon hate


    every artist who refused to draw porn, or drew the wrong kind of porn, received the same treatment


    on top of that there was consistent homophobia and misogyny pretty much everywhere


    so i am not some person who is going "lel the neckbeards are watching the cartoon horses lel"


    i was there, i saw everything

    oh and also i ran across a fair number of neo-nazis in my two-odd years of cartoon horse fan member being fwiw

    (flower path)
    lel the neckbeards are watching the cartoon horses lel

    but seriously it's disappointing how a show that's about love and all that shit gets hijacked by a bro-nerd fanbase dedicated to alienation and hate

    and I don't even watch the damn show

    See, I think I only managed to dodge that kind of burnout because I didn't ever engage myself very deeply in the fandom

    Like, I would watch the show, and I would spout the memes and I would look at fanart from time to time, but I never really followed any particular artists, and when I did talk about the show it was almost always with people I already knew and liked, rather than a community specifically about ponies

    I don't know what point I'm trying to make here; I just find the contrast interesting
  • with a few precious exceptions, communities dedicated to the discussion of a single particular work of fiction tend to be rather prone to terribadness
  • i never went on any pony-specific forums or anything

    True...
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    This is why I don't really like fandom. I like talking with other fans of things on friendly terms, but when the lens narrows and the jackass bell curve comes into effect, it gets ugly and stupid.
