When you're an adult, you can just buy Halloween candy. You don't need to go from house to house trick or treating at all!

@cdr @melissasage The best thing voice control is for, is allowing a device permissions to spy on you and everyone you interact with, hooray.

this is one of my classic outfits tbh. I love this dress

selfie no ec :BoostOK:

Im just looking forward to Trump being impeached, convicted, pardoning himself, and congress voting not to remove him from office.

this sounds subtooty but it's just an errant thought. the speed with which children's cartoon Steven Universe became a warground on Tumblr left a lasting impression on me, who has seen a couple episodes and knows simultaneously too much and almost nothing about the rest of the plot

always useful to remember imo that male and female are not categories handed down from On High, but instead arbitrary fuzzy groupings of characteristics based on human convenience and usefulness to patriarchal capitalism

Proactively muting all conversations about Steven Universe being a hideously ugly cartoon animation, because for some reason, this wrong opinion is linked to lots of even worse opinions that have nothing to do with the art style

it's just that now, if I want to suggest— say— that while children's cartoon Steven Universe is not exempt from criticism and it is admirable to remain critical of the stories you invest time in, children's cartoon Steven Universe may not be important enough to self-destruct entire networks of Internet friends over,

How the hell two old-ass Italians who could barely even fuck had a Puerto Rican baby I'll never know.

All other circumstances: very hard, next to impossible, we never considered this edge case

The two circumstances where it's easy to get a name change pushed through:

1. When you get adopted by cishet white people who like collecting children of your ethnicity
2. When you marry a cishet man as a cishet woman

If you like the Smiths, but hate Morrissey, there are a lot a lot a lot of bands that are essentially the Smiths without Morrissey.

"You Should All Be Murdered" by Another Sunny Day sounds like a slightly more openly hateful Morrissey single
