Idk If The Love Affair Maimed Him Too But This 10 Min Version Certainly Does.

Stories like these transcend all hatred and time.

We should be more pro-active or we’ll see more of such sad fates of honest people.

Amen. They are in most situations the torch you needed to see things better or like this feature that gives slomo to something fastpaced.

He didn't want to go to the museum with Pine and I was like fine just call me I'll fill in bruh happily

He was hoping his Chris soulmate was Hemsworth!

steve harrington has maybe the best character arc ever written for television, he went from asshole dudebro to father of the year to the lesbian ally we all deserve

All this hype on TS7 and if it doesn't turn out to be an album or a single, am gonna throw a fit.

Anyway if you’re from the US and you ever wanted to know what tumblr feels like from a non-USAmerican perspective (please note that the rest of the world is not a monolith either and none of these apply without exception):

Everybody’s talking about brands and stores you’ve never seen in real life. You generally assume they exist, but they might as well be one giant prank the rest of the internet is in on.

You find a post that just sounds wrong. It makes no sense. It’s like OP lives in a weird alternate reality. 9/10 times, it’s just some USAmerican Thing.

You’re still not entirely sure how much an inch is. Or a foot. Or even how many of the former there are in the latter. You maybe know your height in feet and inches.

You have no idea how much a pound is. You’d also like to know how the fuck pound shortens to lbs.

What the fuck is “military time”

Somebody talks about some legal process or something similar. They don’t mention which country’s legal system this pertains to. You know anyway.

People talk about politics. None of it pertains to you. Many posts contain guilt tripping. “How can you not care about this?? Why won’t you reblog this?? People need to know this about x candidate for y position!” You’re busy trying to stay on top of the political landscape in your own country.

You pick up some random slang from the internet. Monkey see monkey do. You’re called racist. You didn’t know it was AAVE. You learnt it from black letters on white background, not from the mouths of people whose faces you could see. How would you have known? You try to unlearn it.

People tell you that you must publicly denounce Chick-fil-A or you’re homophobic. You don’t even know what a Chick-fil-A is.

People say you don’t know LGBTQ+ history. What they mean is you don’t know USAmerican LGBTQ+ history. Nobody cares about your country’s history.

You’re “called out” on using an “offensive” term. It’s (a direct translation of) a completely harmless word where you live.

People expect you to have an idea of how far apart 2 USAmerican states are. You barely know geography past your country’s immediate neighbors.

You randomly switch between British and American spellings. Nothing’s real and there are no rules.

People talk about multiple hour car rides and you get twitchy just thinking about it. You suddenly understand why USAmerican cars are so big.

Somebody talks about school shooting drills. You only ever had fire alarm drills.

You see a cool statistic. The study’s only about the US. It’s unfortunately of no use to you.

People misuse/misspell words and names from your native language. It’s tiring.

(You feel sorry for the French. Nobody should be allowed to mangle the word déjà vu like that.)

You’re still not over the fact that USAmerican school children are supposed to say that pledge thing every morning. You’re never getting over that.

You still don’t know why the men are fresh or what the fuck a sophomore is.

Who the fuck pays up first and then fills up gas??? That’s made up, right??

Everybody has a weird obsession with some comfort food you’d never even heard of before you signed up here.

Fellow non-USAmericans, please add anything else you can think of.

Confessions

I want to live my life the way Villanelle lives in Killing Eve. She lives in Paris, in a wonderful apartment with some really fashionable clothes. She is ferally Bi and gets off killing people. That's the dream life baby.

Lilly Linton. Does she ring a bell?

I want to know what test group saw the official logo and went " this is gonna hype em up".

Well... 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hell yes it is. No strangers look at each other like that.

Something fishy going on between Oswald and Gina, you heard it here first
