cw: tumblr

1. the more I hang around tumblr, the more I wonder how any good politics ever arose out of there. I've been engaged in oppression jokes discourse all morning -

( what's that? )

and then I saw this stellar fucking take, which yeeted me out of my consciousness and into a nether dimension full of soulless ligbeets screeching about how ~50 years of academia are completely useless because their tumblr-educated ass said so. I have not yet recovered (please tell me all the ways in which that post is wrong: I'll love you forever if I don't already)

how did we ever manage to turn out a single good take? why is that place so bad? (don't answer the second one). i love tumblr, but increasingly i have to wonder why.
