My cishet straight man roommate: “I’m a *philosopher*. I have absurdly high standards for all art. I’m a manic pixie poet photographer who listens to Death Grips religiously. I don’t even watch video essays without critiquing them like Scorsese. Genre fiction isn’t art, only high art is art. Sabrina Carpenter isn’t a real artist, BTW; not like the Beatles.”

Also my roommate: “Haliey Welch is legitimately a postmodern performance artist.”

Me:

I have Cats and Soup but I can never decide on what to name them so I just remember them by their clothes. Sometimes, I remember their species, like I have a Russian Blue cat but it’s mostly their little outfits

Ok new thing, rb and put in the tags:

Do you have the game cats and soup

If you have it, do you name your cats anything specific (I name all of mine after flowers, my friend names his after musicals)

If you do, how do you name them

Examples! Tell me the names of your cats and soup cats

My boyfriend: art is a quasi divine thing, it is the pinnacle of human creation. Essentially, art is an artifice in which the artist imbues a particular lens in which a artist frames a particular object so as the viewer can interpret said object. Art exists separately from the medium; every medium can be used to make something entertaining or well crafted, but that doesn’t make it art, let alone good. Good Art will further its medium/media and/or give meaningful commentary on the world or human condition. *Good* art extends upon being aesthetically gratifying. This is why Sabrina Carpenter, genre fiction, blockbusters, Marvel, etc aren’t art, they’re merely entertainment.

Also my boyfriend: Hailey Welch is a post-modern performance artist

Here's to a new year with more friendship and fun

I’ve seen a lot of posts on my dash tonight about users who are threatening suicide, with other Tumblr members posting in effort to try to get ahold of them. I think you all should see this:

IF THERE IS EVER A TUMBLR USER WHO HAS POSTED A GOOD-BYE MESSAGE, SUICIDE NOTE, VIDEO, OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT, PLEASE FOLLOW THIS POST.

1. Scroll to the top of your dashboard.

2. See the circular question mark icon at the top? It’s the third one over from your home symbol. Click on that, and a screen similar to the one in the picture will come up.

3. Where you can type in questions, the box with the magnifying glass at the top, type in the word “suicide.”

4. Click on the first link that shows up. It should say, “Pass the URL of the blog on to us.”

5. Type in the user’s URL and tell Tumblr admin that the user is contemplating suicide and has posted a message indicating that they are going through with it or will be attempting. Hit send! Tumblr administration will perform a number of actions to contact the user and take the necessary steps to prevent the suicide.

TUMBLR: THIS COULD SAVE A USER’S LIFE. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE SUICIDE THREATS.

Reblog this to keep other users aware. Suicide isn’t a joke, and neither is someone’s life. If you didn’t know this, someone else may not, either. Pass it on.
