The Lion King and Tumblr
The “BEfore sunrise, he’s your sun.” I only just realized that. It’s because Mufasa owns everything the light touches. Before sunrise, the light hasn’t touched simba.
Anime dads are the worst.
Because they’re either dead, not around, useless, or the villain.
Or if your son is Eren Jaeger, maybe all four.
Um excuse me, Haruhi’s dad from OHSHC is fabulous so don’t hate.
haruhi’s dad is literally the best dad ever okay
how could you forget this guy?
Anime dad’s only suck if they have sons.
Anime dad’s with daughters are top notch.
seriously though
The last one is dead though. Or at least he dies and his daughter asks why they are burying him? Why are they burying daddy? He has work to do. How can he do his work when he wakes up if they’re burying him?
Go to your room.Stay in your room.
I am in my room
Just something that’s been on my mind. Tumblr has this specific way of handling communities. These are just the ones that come by on my dash, I’m sure there are plenty more examples.
First they start out nice, tolerant, willing to listen and learn.
But they quickly become too nice and tolerant. Rather than simply accepting group X, they begin to overglorify them. They make them into something more special than people outside of group X, and coupled with their compulsive need to belong and feel special, desire to be a part of it too.
In comes the appropriation. If they can’t be a part of it, they’ll make themselves a part of it, one way or another. And is someone in group X not acting the way their fantasy version of them acts? Call them out on it!
They become so fanatical that they begin to talk over, or drive out the original people of group X.
And then finally they manage to become so hateful, their initial tolerance has turned into cold, terrifying intolerance. Calling gay/trans men privileged over white straight cis women, telling transsexual people to die, purposefully triggering people they dislike into panic attacks, defending Muslims to the point of calling the attack on Charlie Hebdo justified. And sending death threats to anyone who dares to disagree.
Being excluded from a group or community because you don’t belong there is not oppression.
It simply means that group does not describe or fit you as an individual.
If you can’t accept that, you have far deeper issues than your imagined ‘oppression’.
Inb4 tons of hate messages and death threats.
I think there needs to be one about disability and mental illness. Diagnosis privilege is a thing? Accusations of gatekeeping? Non-disabled people policing disabled people about “ableist” language often whilst calling them retards on anon?
Ha! This is actually a really neat little diagram of how Tumblr as a whole “thinks”.
The SJW side of Tumblr in a few images.
The only part not explained is the
“We are advocates for human rights. What? Them? No, they aren’t human”
WHEN YOUR HOMIE HAS THE SAME GUILTY SHIP AS YOU

this is why I love this joke:
Jesus was fond of telling his followers not to worry about how they’d afford food tomorrow because God would provide. But Jesus told them this while handing out free bread and encouraging them to help people who were in need, making them the outlet through which God would provide for others
My mother was a waitress, we live in an area that has a lot of Christians and people would often stiff her on tips. Instead they’d leave a pamphlet with quotes from Jesus saying not to worry because God would provide
Jesus’ message was never that God would magically put food on people’s tables. God would provide opportunities to help each other, like the boat captains offering to help the dying man. That only works if people actually help each other
When I first heard this joke as a teenager I laughed at the guy who didn’t take the help that was offered to him. As an adult, I think of all the Christian politicians who vote against food stamps and I want to tell them “You were the boat captain but you steered away from the man in need instead of offering him help. Is that really what God wanted you to do?”
