I get why ppl are leaving tumblr but ive never deleted an account for anything in my life and if tumblr wants me to leave theyre going to have to kill me themselves
me in conversation with someone i know in passing: oh hey, good to see you, how’s your day been? 🙂
them: just another day of wanting the sweet release of death lmao *adjusts their kanken backpack with iron-on ufo and “hella rad but hella sad” patches* crippling depression amirite mdude? lmao (they are saying “lmao” out loud)
me: WelL. Ok
to the people reblogging this post saying that they do this, i don’t think you understand how uncomfortable and sometimes upsetting it is for the people you subject to this, especially if those people have struggled with suicidality themseves. if it’s an in-joke among your good friends that’s fine, but saying shit like this to people you don’t know well when they’re just trying to be polite is extremely extremely misguided.
i think about this post a lot bc a lot of ppl in the notes fuckin missed the point like, “but they shouldn’t have asked me if they didn’t wanna know!!!” & “maybe some people feel uncomfortable with lying tho”, “maybe it’s a cry for help!!!” like even if all of those things are true it doesn’t change the fact that it’s largely inconsiderate to dump vaguely concerning jones on someone you don’t know? they’re not your therapist and might not know it’s a tumblr meme. also my fav “so now being honest with our friends is inconsiderate huh” like y’all have fuckin selective reading bc OP specified it was someone you don’t know well, not your friends.
like being depressed sucks but it’s selfish to justify making others who might be dealing uncomfortable for your desire to make a quirky tumblr joke
You ever write up a post you decide will be too controversial or embarrassing but leave it in your drafts to sleep on and then forget about it? How about real personal stuff you weren’t sure you wanted to share at the time? Heavy-ass receipts on bad shit you’re leaving there only just in case you’re forced to use them?
Well if any of your drafts get flagged by the new system, a mod can apparently see them in with all your other flagged posts, and if they un-flag them, it publishes them automatically as a brand new post. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
The fallout series going from a commentary on America’s nationalism, glorification of war, and capitalism to a game where you can pay real in life money to buy something called Atom to buy in game items is the type of sad irony I’m sure English professors go to bed thinking about

NO individual should be referred to as ‘they.’ It’s grammatically incorrect.
And on the last button, try asking a sane, normal person what their gender pronoun is, and they’re gonna look at you funny. Steven Crowder asked normal, everyday people what their pronoun is and they didn’t like him very much.
Try doing this in another country outside of America. People will think you’re being insane… and you are.
i know i already rbed this awhile back but i just noticed something
Tarot DnD. It’s DnD but you replace the dice with tarot cards and the DM has to interpret the results by symbolism instead of numbers.
Ooh! My friend proposed an idea similar to this. CAH DnD. It’s basically the same concept but instead of tarot cards, you use Cards Against Humanity cards. As she put it:
“Perception check”
“Bees?”
“BEES???”
That sounds absolutely HORRENDOUS, your friend should be very proud
