[ID: Screenshots from Animal Crossing New Horizons where I’m talking to Punchy at his crafting table. He says, “I wanna tell everybody about the forbidden altar, so I scribbled down the recipe! It’d be great if a buncha folks made a forbidden altar!” /end ID]
what did he mean by this
Fun fact! Having a job every day is actually a fairly new thing.
In olden times, people had daily chores and other things to do but their workload/ daily working hours was actually much lower than it is today. Even in farming communities.
The concept of working super hard every day actually comes from capitalism, which in turn comes from Puritanical ideology.
The Puritans believed in salvation through work and in no play.
Early capitalists adopted this ideology because it meant higher productivity and therefore more money if their factories were running near constantly.
The idea of needing to be continuously productive in order to be useful/ allowed things like food and shelter, is actually quite an insidious ideal that is deeply rooted in the American culture.
4 day work weeks have actually proven to be more productive than the 5 day week. But corporations won't adopt it willingly because it means less of a stranglehold on their workers.
Hi Elon: please add a decreasing counter bar in the corner of the screen so I know how many posts left I can view. Because having a health bar on twitter would be the only funny thing you can do right now
was your oc ever happy?
Lilac had a rough start, but she was always pretty blessed with a happy childhood. Even in times of crisis she made it out truly happy. She lives her best life and knows it.
Remus didn’t know he could feel happy until his launch to fame and success. When he came clean, let go of his past, and embraced himself as a celebrity, he adored the happy feeling.
Micah suffers from acute testosterone poisoning, AKA being a teenage boy. He’s miserable, but in the best way, and doing what he can to stay chipper between the child-prodigy gig.
“well. plays the cards i’m given” has profoundly changed something in me. litany against wallowing in an unsatisfactory situation

Elephants crossing the street
Love the one on the end going “Thanks, that’s the last of us”
ok but like, you know they’ve probably seen humans do that after holding up traffic.
I honestly legitimately think that 100% was meant to be a “yes sorry we held you up we’re done now” signal, because they’ve seen humans do the same and they want to be polite.
who do you think is the *least* trustworthy source of information about the past
museums
personal accounts from your grandparents or other relatives
conversation with someone who was there
college history professors
high school history teachers
nonfiction books
movies or television programs about the past
See Resultsplease help me foist tumblr poll results onto my master's advisor as part of my thesis! if you'd be so kind, reblog for a wider sample size and (if you're comfortable with it) add your generation and race in the tags.
this is actually true! there have been multiple studies that show that millennials are better at identifying fraudulent links than other generations, and one theory is that rickrolling taught us to be cautious about what links we click!
it’s fascinating to see how much memes have shaped our lives over the years!
Every time I rewatch breaking bad I’m completely STUNNED by how fast Walt resorts to cooking meth to pay his medical bills. He doesn’t try literally anything else before resorting to meth. He finds out he has cancer and then immediately contacts the first meth dealer he can find and is like “let’s be partners.” Like I cannot emphasize enough that cooking meth was Walter White’s FIRST resort, not his last. His old college friends even offer him an executive position at an immensely successful business he helped found so the health insurance would cover most of it and his pay would more than cover the rest, and he turns it down because he doesn’t want “handouts.” The story of breaking bad is about Walters descent into immorality and depravity but he really fucking hurtles off the diving board at the first chance he got and ignored the people throwing him life preserves.
This is why I don't watch mainstream television. The whole pre, pro, and post production crew all knew they were profiting off of glorifying meth usage to millions of impressionable viewers and they did it with glee.
This is so funny. You thought Breaking Bad was about how doing meth is cool?
