god this is. the dumbest fucking thing to complain about about but i loathe people on tumblr who constantly moan about how liking their art isnt enough, if you *really* supported them youd reblog their work too. its always so manipulative and guilt-trippy, i absolutely hate it.
like people complain about youtubers asking people to sub but i much prefer annoying bits of a video i can skip over rather than this guilt-tripping bs tumblr artists loooove to pull.
me: surely this fluffy jonmartin fan art that got through my black list won't have any spoilers...
*accidentally skims the caption*
me:

okay for some fucking reason i cannot post the big on here but its the arrested development "dead dove, do not eat" gif. you know the one.
me: why the fuck am i getting recommended so many parenting articles all of the sudden?
*earlier that week*
me: wow, i sure did spend 12 hours on various baby name sites to figure out character names today, huh.
anyways, michael tma sounds just a little bit like bbc moriarty.
jon said "male-presenting" and now im thinking about female-presenting nipples again : /
why must i pay $100 to git gud at excel
i went down stairs and my father asked me if he knew anything about some podcast where bruce springteen and barak obama talked about the state of america like im a 50 year old italian american in new jersey with a single gay son i love dearly. who does he think i am.
ugh, i keep getting recommended some video about the commodification of philosophy that features philosophytube in the thumbnail and identifies her as an influencer in the title and im just like... ???? people realize that "influencer" and "internet personality" aren't synonyms, right????? like, i feel like a pretty big component of "influencer" is branding, but not just any branding - because frankly, any artist who wants to make a living has to build a brand in some form in current society, especially those who rely on social media to find their audience. "influencers" are people whose brands rely entirely on their own life (or at least, what they show to the public). like, say what you will about the parasociality of being a popular video essayist, but at the end of the day that's still creating a piece of work that can be separated to a certain degree from it's author.

anyways this is is also reminding me to get around to making a post about how im growing increasingly convinced that "parasocial relationships" are best defined as being the relationship between an author/authors and audiences.
can somebody please tell me WHY fat lip by sum 41 started playing after listening to an episode of the magnus archives. am i being haunted by the ghost of a teenager from 2004.
