Hi, I'm Tim. Stuff I like and stuff I do end up here. 26. I mainly just reblog a million kinds of things, from politics to fandoms. I used to post (some) OC but....I really haven't done that in a while.
Ok so like The main way that I used to use tumblr seems to have broken so I’m just probably gonna stop using tumblr.
A “straw that broke the camel’s back” kind of situation.
If you wanna find me elsewhere here’s my twitter. Here’s my instagram. I also have a discord and snapchat and stuff, so mutuals that wanna hit me up there can ask me for those. If we’ve never talked before……probably talk to me on the platforms I linked first and then if we become friends I’ll give the info for those.
If anybody posts anything they really want me to see (especially mutuals) feel free to message me, since I probably won’t just delete the app from my phone and stuff, so I should get those notifications. Should.
listen to yourself and watch your language. instead of saying “sorry for ranting”, say “thank you for listening to me”. instead of saying “sorry that i am overemotional”, say “thank you for trying to understand something difficult”. instead of saying “sorry if i am a burden”, say “thank you for the time and energy you invest in our friendship”. good things will come when you realize you are not an apology.
i can’t stop thinking about that post about spiderman having a patreon. would he have benefit tiers? $1 guarantees weekly videos of him doing backflips somewhere Very Up High. Monthly goal is his rent with a promise like “if i have the bare minimum a human being needs to survive i guess I can keep fighting crime which is cool. mutually beneficially.” rumor has it that once someone sent him $1000 directly on ko-fi and he showed up at a birthday party but who knows.
$1 Access to Spiderman’s snapchat.
Spider-Man seems like the kinda guy to show up to a kid’s birthday party solely to surprise children and eat cake, so whoever allegedly paid $1000 to do what he probably was already planning to do is either very kind or a fool
oh no he crashes children’s birthday parties all the time and gets party favor baggies. this was a 21st birthday party which was very stressful bc he kept stumbling over trying to politely refuse drinks bc he’s a good kid but while also not revealing he’s legally too young to drink
Even better: just… a montage of Spidey’s excuses for why he can’t drink
“Sorry guys, can’t drink and swing”
“I’m, uh, the designated web-slinger!”
“I actually just finished consuming the liquified remains of a few carjackers, so I’m good thanks”
So in addition to Tumblr’s attempt to ban all nsfw stuff, somehow the function of the site that I used to keep up with everything on my dash broke. What I was doing was, say, go to page 8, and then back to 7. Which would give me a url that I could then change the 7 to any number (usually 300 or 600 so that I wouldn’t have to do it as often). Except now, while the page 8 to page 7 thing still works, if I change the page number manually, the rest of the url never changes, so it just loads the same page over and over. Super dumb.
I wonder how long it’ll be til I just leave this site. Or if it will implode on itself before I get the chance.
any white at a protest who tries to go against police and deliberately provoke a response from them is not to be trusted and does not have the safety of black and brown people in mind.
there is a good chance that they are police too. if anyone, especially a white dude, ever randomly gets your attention and conspiratorially tries to convince you to jump a police officer, then dude is a cop. They have been using this technique and script for at least 30 years.
Check their fucking shoes. They’re always too afraid that their little toesies will be hurt so they’ll usually still be rocking the exact same boots as the guys on the other side. This was what gave the cops away when they provoked riots in Toronto a while back.
@talesofalamia, remember when I pointed out the shoes of the two well-dressed informants near us?
Similar note: IME, unmarked cruisers have five distinguishing traits:
1. They’re one of the department-issue models. 2. They’re always white, black, or dark blue. 3. They always look like they just rolled out of a car wash. 4. Usually rocking restricted plates. 5. Most reliable if present but hardest to spot: Their mirrors are bulkier, to fit the light rigs in.
In Austin the under cover officer that tried to convince me to set a cop car on fire had a convincing fake beard.
Be careful out there and read up on common tactics used against protestors before going.
You can usually see the stealth lights if you look into the grill.
Besides the old obvious as fuck Crown Victoria, be suspicious of 2013+ Ford Taurus and Explorer, 2006+ Dodge Charger and Dakota, 06-13 Chevy Impala, 11+ Chevy Caprice and both the Tahoe and Suburban.
Look for oversize mirrors, plugs on the roof and/or A pillar, lights inside the grill, extraneous lights inside the headlight assembly, lights tucked up behind the rear view mirror, steel wheels with or without wheel covers, and plugs or short antennas on the trunk lid.
Reblogging this for two reasons: 1. So people who have reason to be afraid of the police (which is pretty much anyone with significant melanin) see it. 2. Uh, good writer reference for describing undercover cop cars…
