i think the reason i get so irritated with tumblr now  is because everyone’s always so angry and everything has to be a debate and i’m just? too old? like go play in your salt mines children and leave grandma alone 

I feel this. Everyone is so angry about everything. Not just injustice but fandom and things that should be a refuge from the troubles of the world for a few minutes.

Forced Safe Mode just went live. Go into your account settings to check for the changes.

Here’s how to turn it off:

iOS:

  • Leave the Tumblr app for a sec and go to the main Settings app on your device.
  • Scroll down and tap “Tumblr.”
  • Look for “Safe Mode” and adjust the settings to match your comfort level.

Android:

  • Go to settings: Tap the little person in the tab bar, then the gear icon in the top right, then “General settings.”
  • Tap “Filtering,” then
  • Flip the Safe Mode switch on.

Web:

  • Go to settings: Click the little fella in the top bar, then click settings.
  • Scroll to “Filtering,” and click the Safe Mode switch on.

Fandom, after all, is born of a balance between fascination and frustration: if media content didn’t fascinate us, there would be no desire to engage with it; but if it didn’t frustrate us on some level, there would be no drive to rewrite or remake it

molly is the champion of purring

i always tell people that it’s an actual problem that we can be watching TV and then someone makes eye contact with molly and we can no longer hear the dialogue, we have to read the subtitles.

and they think we are exaggerating, but a friend came to visit and discovered that, no, that actually happens.

Loud Girl

She sounds like she’s pretending to be a motorcycle!

she can do this for HOURS, by the way. you don’t have to be petting her. i lie down next to her and start reading, and off she goes. ❤
