I don't know; I kind of think that our culture is based around systematic denial of human limitations. I mean, there's the eight-hour work day (which is about 4 hours longer than most people are consistently able to remain productive); buffing your qualifications on job applications (which everyone needs to do to some extent, because everyone else is doing it); the expectation of multitasking, even though it's not really possible; academics are running around with impostor syndrome, ultimately because there's only so many books that an individual is capable of reading, while a bunch of liars and grifters pretend that they're experts at *everything* and are held up as thought leaders. Billionaires are held up as if they're just incredibly hard workers, photoshopped movie stars held up as if they're just incredibly beautiful. We feel guilty for not being something that never has and can never exist.
Hey, if you've been scrolling awhile, are you still enjoying it?
It's okay if you are! This can be a fun place to relax and interact with friends, or just hang out and exist. But sometimes, we get into the habit of scrolling, and don't think to stop, even when we're no longer enjoying it.
So this is just a checkpoint: If you aren't enjoying Tumblr right now, go do something else for awhile. Drink some water, text a friend, read a book, color a picture.
Later, when you feel like it, you can come back and check in on the chaos.

This is it. The internet has come full circle. You can all go home now. We’re done.
Like to charge, reblog to cast.
- He is not a president. An ex-president maybe. A former one. I was told that they call presidents who finished their terms "president", but I am not sure Trump deserves that too...
- Thousands of US citizens die in prison, why should he be above that?
- Dude was essentially auctioning off state secrets, a thing that would result in a CIA killsquad going after you otherwise.
- Charged and reblogged. Hope his sufferimg is long and painful.
One weird thing about America is that former presidents are always addressed as "president". Even if they got impeached. It's weird and pseudoroyalty and I don't like it, but that is standard usage.
