it is so wild to me the fashions that are called “emo” today. especially given the fact that probably 80-90% of it is actually scene, not emo. this would have started full on wars 15 years ago

whenever people call this

emo it drives me BANANAS. no! this is not how emos did their hair. this was a scene look!!! some people might have gone from emo to scene depending on their age when new trends happened but they’re DISTINCT

this is getting more popular so i want to clarify, the above are obv scene queens and were what all scene kids aspired to HOWEVER. all of this⤵️? absolutely would have been considered scene in the late 00s (all photos from searching “emo” on pinterest)

whereas these are more emo⤵️

you will note that the scene kids wear brighter pops of color, especially neon pink and green. there’s a lot of pop culture references, patterns and texture. miniskirts very popular, the more layered the better. the emo kids are more simple, the black skinny jeans are a staple obv and usually dark hair and a band shirt, maybe some stripes but not anything crazier than that in terms of patterns. maybe a few accessories, but not so many that you hear them coming from a few miles away.

now THESE three are more in the middle. personally, i would categorize the first as scene, and the #1 giveaway there is the domo necklace- a scene icon- and the multitude/stacking of accessories backs it up. the middle is harder- the front of the hair and band shirt suggest emo, but the pink, layering, and the hair bow are decidedly scene. i think you could probably call it either way but i would lean scene. the last one is also hard- the hair highlights and amount of accessories are more scene, but the color scheme, especially the silver and black for the accessories as opposed to patterns, make me lean emo.

i can’t get over how evil it is that “gap in your resume” is considered a valid reason to not hire someone like “hmmm sorry you weren’t working constantly every day of your life we need people who do nothing but work until they drop dead for us we just don’t think you’re right for the job” fuck youuuu

there is a demon in your house named CARBON MONOXIDE. he enchants your mind with confusion and your body with exhaustion. you need to call a powerful exorcist named HVAC TECHNICIAN

Our grocery store has a Perishable Manager and a Non-Perishable Manager and I know it’s talking about the departments they oversee but really it seems like Seth may be mortal but David will never die

Observation #1: The prefix “a-” means “none”, such as in “asexual”, “apolitical” and “Atheism”.

Observation: The word “unicorn” is a combination of “uni”, meaning “one”, and “cornus”, meaning “horn”.

I got a marketing email from hobbycraft to say that they’re now selling plush pumpkins ahead of halloween

so of course I went to the website, which led me to this delightful photo series showing the different sizes available:

not to be controversial but sometimes I think the private personal lives of celebrities are in fact none of our business

Unless they are being closeted, oppressed or censored and they show discomfort with and about it, and try to warn us or communicate to us about their situation. Just then and only then…it’s also our business.

celebrities are not sending you secret coded messages asking you to save them. i’m so sorry to tell you this but the former members of your favorite boy band are not actually secretly communicating with you about your RPF ship

I could’ve swore you said they were not trying to communicate through coded messages.

I think RBB and SBB handled by One Direction themselves don’t agree with you on that one, lad.

Just two rainbow teddy bears wearing a real expensive Rolex in their wrist and all dressed up at One Direction’s stage tour just for no reason at all.

What a strange happenstance!

NOT. I could go on and on all day. Anyways…great chat, pals!

i’m obsessed with the way that this is phrased like a slam dunk while absolutely being one of the most incoherent responses possible. it’s literally just pictures of two teddy bears

us: celebrities aren’t secretly communicating with you asking you to save them through coded messages

someone in an incredibly bizarre fandom echo chamber with zero self-awareness about how unhinged they’re about to sound: yeah well what about THIS *posts a picture of two teddy bears where one of the bears looks like it’s reading a book about diarrhea*

Tumblr skews young, so let me just share this.

The worst thing you can do in a job is not be bad at something. It’s to say you are great at something while being bad at something. If you need to improve and you’re upfront that you’re not the best, people will probably help or teach or explain. They will sympathize when you get put on a task you’re not qualified for.

If you claim to be awesome at something when you demonstrably suck at it, all of that good will and sympathy is gone and it will not come back.

Confident is good. Stand up for yourself, know your skills.

But the other side of this is to Know your Faults.

This message brought to you by the 23yo who bragged about how he was great at X and had the best program for it, and I spent the weekend doing his job for him because he is so so bad at it, and only about 5% of what he did is salvageable.

On the other hand, saying “I know enough about [x] to look up the things I don’t know how to do” is a legitimate and valid skill level to proclaim. Like even just knowing to say that, knowing the concept that you could look up things you don’t know how to do, that you are capable of independent learning, is huge. So for those anxious about whether or not they know enough, “I know enough about [x] to look up the things I don’t know how to do” is a great way to show familiarity without proclaiming expertise.

Excellent addition. One really common thing is that young/new employees know the programs well, but they don’t know the details of the task. So. Other great sentences that are versions of not knowing stuff but sounding confident.

“I’ve done this sort of thing before, but never here/with you.”

“I know the program I need to use, but I’ve never done this before. Let me get started, and see what I can figure out on my own.”

“Do you have a copy of a previous version of (thing) I can use as reference?”

“Luckily I am very fast in this program, so if I do this totally wrong, we can at least catch it fast.”

“I’m going to put together a very rough version and come talk to you. I don’t want to waste the time getting into details if I’m doing it wrong.”

And it is always always valid to say:

“Okay, I have never done that. If you want me to try, I can. I want to learn this, but I might not be the right person for it.”

EXTREMELY rare w from the uk media

Defamation lawsuits in UK are heavily weighted in *favor* of the plaintiff. You have to have a pretty weak case to lose over there. If there wasn’t a rabbid, inescapable social media campaign against Amber Heard, he would have lost in America too.
