Pessimism-central - Just A Touch Of Pessimism

This was the first anime I had ever watched I'm genuinely going to cry

Me coming on tumblr and finding out that there’s going to be an Inuyasha sequel “Hanyo no Yashahime”:

So far the general consensus is that this is real and it looks legit so I’m psyched as hell to meet Inuyasha and Sesshomaru’s daughters and see what their story is like!

I'm so frickfracking tired, i don't do any homework, I watch the deadlines as they hurtle past me at top speeds as I relax and read fanfiction on my phone. I am basically nocturnal at this point. There are so many tabs open in both my phone and my brain. I need to sleep but every waking day just feels like a a giant nap.

yeah I’m a nonpracticing woman. I was raised female but I don’t really believe anymore yknow?

reblog if you are BISEXUAL, SUPPORT BISEXUAL PEOPLE, or REALLY HATE DONALD TRUMP

VIKTOR MOTHERFUCKING HARGREEVES!!! WE SUPPORT ELLIOT AND VIKTOR IN THIS HOUSE AND IF ANYONE TALKS SHIT THEYRE GONNA GET HIT AS LONG AS ELLIOT IS COMFORTABLE NOTHING ELSE MATTERS!!!

something that i haven’t seen in the hamilton discourse is how it does a really good job at humanizing bad people, but that that can be a good thing

we like to pretend like bad people™️ are bad in every aspect of their lives and that if we were alive back then we would’ve seen right through thomas jefferson’s bullshit.

but in reality how often do we see a politician/celebrity/ex boyfriend and at first glance they’re great. but then after a while you do some digging and realize oh shit this person is the worst. 

of course glorifying slave owners is never okay do not get me wrong on that

but i guess what I’m trying to say is that hamilton does a really good job of showing us how people justified supporting the founding fathers, and by extension calls us to examine the politicians and people we’re supporting.

because history repeats itself and in 200 years kids will be reading history books and wondering how we let x y and z happen. so just because someone seems nice and like they’re working for your cause – and maybe they are – don’t forget that everyone has the capacity to do awful things. you and me included. 

and again – don’t take this as me defending the actions of those who owned enslaved people, or those who supported them. but instead take this as an opportunity to examine how easy it would have been to be deceived by them – and then consider how that can still happen today on issues that we might not even know are issues yet. 

we have to be humble enough to recognize that we are capable of falling prey to dangerous ideas, because if we’re not then how are we ever going to fight them?? nothing can ever change if we can’t admit that our views are sometimes wrong. 

im so funny

I have never wanted to be a little woodland creature more in my life than I do after seeing this
