Oh how I fondly remember the hate mail we all got. My favorite part was how sometimes they were on anon and sometimes they weren’t but all the hate messages were nearly identical so it was obvious where they were all coming from.
Ooh i had no idea there was dark shadows drama somone please fill me in on this I love drama 👀
A while back ago a bunch of us got that hate message up there. Some people got anon hate but I received it from the person off anon. Basically they were enraged that we were criticizing Barnabas. They also couldn’t handle the Barnabas/Julia ship and if I recall made a post about how the people who ship it are deluded that contained some really sexist/agist rhetoric against Julia.
After they sent the anon hate they were sort of giggling about sending it on their blog saying things like “I was really bad earlier lol oh well”.
It was really odd. I have the blog blocked but some people tried to engage the person in discussion that kind of went nowhere. They’ve complained on their blog since about us and tumblr’s format in general. Don’t know why they continue to haunt a website whose platform they don’t like but *shrug*

1. Fist: Make a fist around the epi-pen, don’t place your thumb/fingers over either end
2. Flick the blue cap off
3. Fire. Press down into the outer thigh (the big muscle in there), hold for 10 seconds before removing (the orange cap will cover the needle). Bare skin is best but the epi-pen will go through clothing. Avoid pockets and seams.
– Ring an ambulance even if everything seems to be fine!
Oh my god. So as someone who has to carry an epipen EVERYWHERE I am so happy to see that there’s an info post about them. Like in the extreme case that I can’t inject myself, somebody else would have to do it, but nobody knows how to do it! Thank you, this may just save my life some day.
When people go off about how English is the worst language, I just wanna point out a few things:
– Our future tense requires only one word (looking at you, Spanish)
– Words don’t change meanings depending on tone (Cantonese)
– We don’t live in some bizarre Beauty And The Beast world where we give inanimate objects genders (romance languages, German)
– Likewise, we don’t have have two different words for “they” because we don’t care whether “they” were male or female (Spanish, French)
– There’s no formal “you” because we don’t play mind games about whether or not we respect you (Spanish, German)
– We don’t alter the whole fucking language based on how much we respect you (Japanese)
– The letters and sounds might not be consistent, but at least we have letters, not just pictures (Mandarin)
– We don’t have a fucking stupid tense specifically for talking to two people because some idiot decided that a two-person tense was necessary(Arabic)
So yeah, I think we’re doing okay as a language
Oh and some of our plurals are irregular, but at least it’s not like every goddamn plural is an entirely new word so you have to learn every word twice
At least it’s not like that, right? Right, Arabic? WHAT A DUMB IDEA THAT WOULD BE, HUH, ARABIC?
But we do kinda have the tone thing. Like record and record, resume and resume, etc
For a few words, but you can mispronounce a lot and still get away with it. I’m referring to this:
I love this post
Verbs don’t conjugate depending on who is doing the action and in what manner. (Finnish)
This is Greek and Russian erasure and I want to die each and every day
Reblogging literally just for that horrifying Shi story
English literally is the easiest fucking language ever when it comes to grammar, also it’s the best language for non-binary people because you can say they/them and don’t have to use a male or female form in contrast to fucking german where idiots who have nothing better to do are leading endless discussions about the gender * 🙈🙈🙈🙈
I am so happy that objects don’t have genders in English that I get irrationally angry when makeup vloggers refer to eyeshadows as “she” and “her”.
