An important PSA to remember!

Tone tags are not your punchline.
Tone tags like “/j” “/srs” etc are accessibility tools. They help neurodivergent people understand the explicit tone of written text that would otherwise be only implicit and therefore difficult for us to understand. If you use tone tags in a joking or disingenuous manner, you’re not only going to end up confusing a lot of people, but it’s also just plain ableist to make a joke out of an accessibility tool, something that a lot of us rely on to understand and communicate with people online.
Especially considering the whole point of tone tags is for them to be used in the most genuine, accurate manner possible, someone knowingly misusing them just means they’re doubling down on their ableist disregard for neurodivergent people who might read it.
If you post something somewhere as a joke but end it with a “/srs,” fix it. Delete it. Don’t do it again. Tone tags are not your punchline.

Of fucking course! I'm ace so I totally understand how frustrating it is to see others exclude us and aro people so I wanted to make it known that anyone who wants to exclude aro and/or ace peeps aren't allowed.
The Umbrella Academy S3 + Text Posts Part 1
I’m the only one who will be on TV, since I’m the captain!
I rewatched S1 and S2 of The Umbrella Academy for the tenth time, and I decided to keep track of how many times the characters said certain words
Klaus: I wasn’t that drunk.
Viktor: You colored my face with a highlighter because you said I was important.
Klaus: BECAUSE YOU ARE!
I can't get over Harlan
This poor child was born in a time where society doesn't understand people like him, and would've been hauled to an institute eventually, in a span of a few days, he drowned, resurrected, acquired an insanely powerful ability he had no way of controlling. Just when he thought things were okay, he and his mom had to leave, and for many many years they've been on the move because it turns out- No! He STILL has the power that he doesn't know how to control and its only growing stronger and everytime he lose control they have to leave. Until one day his mom- the one person who had been by his side in all these hard years- passed away. And then he was alone, waiting for Viktor, remembering his promise to come back.
And then Harlan finally get to meet him, but then found out he unintentionally killed Viktor's mom as a result of his losing control. And when Viktor finally knew how to take back Harlan's power- the main source of his suffering all these years- he was killed, his freedom cut short because of something that was out of his control.
Harlan deserved better.
Klaus telling Diego he "barely got out with his life" when Hazel and Cha-Cha tortured him back in S1 but now we know he probably actually did die a couple of times in the process and just CAME BACK TO LIFE WITHOUT EVEN REALISING ?? Klaus ?? 😭😭
