in junior year of highschool my art teacher would let our ceramics class play music of our choice off of her desktop. we usually used spotify or youtube but she did have one album downloaded on her computer. it was a halloween sound effects/ambience collection. i dont remember why she had it. there was a track on there called “burning screams” which was exactly what it sounds like. just a cacophony of screams alongside crackling fire. she only let us play it on very special occasions, and we would cheer and jump with joy every time. it was like a pizza party to us
please imagine 6 teenagers with giant sad puppy eyes looking at a dear sweet 50 something year old art teacher and asking “may we please hear burning screams”
i dont know where burning screams came from. ive looked. its lost media to me. burning screams is my white whale
Track 3 “Burning Screams” on “Scary Sounds of Halloween”

we should really talk about Foreigner’s God by Hozier more its such an emotionally devastating song its a lamentation of the systemic destruction of Irish culture under English colonial rule but it also expresses a universal grief that every culture that’s been lost to colonialism can connect to the lyric “all that i’ve been taught and every word i’ve got is foreign to me” reflects so much yearning and loss Foreigner’s God is easily the most underrated Hozier song and is undoubtedly one of his best

Just woke up from a dream where one of my Tumblr mutuals taught me about an image processing transform called the “communist transform” that was… apparently part of some specific open source movement to track changes in DRM'ed media?
and I pulled out a whiteboard and fucking worked through a 4x4 example by hand
I think my brain is broken
@medium-amount-of-gay asked for more context, so: this is the code for the Communist Transform (it’s basically a five-point estimation of Gaussian curvature?)
and here’s what it actually looks like (on a picture of Karl Marx for thematic coherency)
I have no idea what it has to do with communism, or open source software, or anything, but that’s dream logic for you. I’m just kind of amazed that something someone told me in a dream was mathematically coherent enough to code it at all.
Oh, it’s really sensitive to pixel-level noise. I blurred the original image and it’s a lot clearer what’s going on – it’s an edge detector.
you see, this is the communist transform because the low signal represents the proletariat and the high signal represents the bourgeoisie, and therefore
…the funny thing is, you were the mutual who taught me this in my dream

these new bots are NOT OK. Them having actual tumblr names is giving me psychic damage. I feel like curling up in a corner and crying.
yesterday “remainingforefinger” followed me and the fact that this ISN’T a nonbinary autist from Poland who works as a dentist’s assistant, but A BOT, makes me want to SCREAM.
Pour one out for this choice bot url

It’s a bummer how Octavia Butler died so young and has ended up serving as this generic Black Woman author who people cite but don’t actually read. I wish the world and been different and she’d lived it longer so she could be properly honored as American Fiction’s most Highbrow Pervert and Master of Unsettling Alien Sex Scenes. “Parasitism is sexy,” she says. Yes, ma’am, we know you think that.

Did you ever just feel so lucky for knowing someone you met online? Like.. I was one click away from not following you. I was one second away from never even knowing of your existence.I would never have been this happy!!!…

Everybody who wears The One Ring in LOTR starts to refer to it as ‘My Precious,’ and Tolkien’s right that is super creepy, but what I really love is that everybody does it, which says to me that this super powerful scary evil sentient ring has a favorite pet name and just, like, will not respond to anything else.
Hey uhh @piyo-13 you cant hide brilliance like these in the tags
look i’m just saying, even as educated as frodo is, would he really KNOW the true name of sauron? like shit, of any of the elves left in middle earth by the time the events of LotR actually happen, only círdan and galadriel are old enough to remember that sauron existed in valinor (not counting old sindarin/avari elves because iirc sauron was never called mairon on the shores of ara [except possibly by melkor wink wonk]), let alone what his name was. so to everyone in ME, he’s always been sauron, and there’s no connection to “precious” in any linguistic sense… but mairon remembers.
no you’re a hundred percent right!! no one would know, and it wouldn’t make sense to anyone except maybe Gandalf, but that shredded little piece of sauron’s souls remembers
Oh, wow.
this is why i love lotr fandom. this right here
so what you’re saying is there’s a tiny piece of sauron’s soul tucked smug into the Ring just going around introducing itself as “i’m babey”
This post has justified every second of every minute, hour, and collective day I have ever spent on Tumblr. It was all worth it for this.

it’s amazing how ordinary objects can become so significant to only the owner
when my aunt’s best friend passed away, my younger brother was four years old. at his funeral, my brother went up to her and gave her a nickel. he told her very solemnly that it would make her feel better. she smiled for the first time in days, and tucked it in her wallet.
when my brother was 22, his best friend passed away unexpectedly. my aunt drove three hours to be there for him at the funeral. she went up to my brother, gave him a big hug, and then gave him a nickel. it was the same nickel; she had kept it in her wallet for 18 years, and now it’s on a necklace that he never takes off.
what i’m trying to say is that the love you put into the world will always find its way back to you.
