Reblog and put in the tags your 12 year old internet obsession

are you trying to start a war

Because no one asked, here is the definitive rankings for my four favourite bands and their albums (My Chemical Romance, Deftones, Fall Out Boy, and The Used)

Please do what you will with this information.

Taylor Swift and Fall Out Boy both have said "you are what you love", and it's such a strange lyric to me.

Taylor Swift said it in "Daylight", where she sings

I wanna be defined by the things that I love

Not the things I hate

Not the things that I'm afraid of, I'm afraid of

Not the things that haunt me in the middle of the night

I, I just think that

You are what you love

Fall Out Boy has it in the middle of their song "Save Rock at Roll"

You are what you love

Not who loves you

In a world full of the word 'yes'

I'm here to scream

I think this lyric is so wierd. I didn't understand it the first time I heard it (on the FOB song, circa 2014). I'd defined so much of my existence around being loved by other people. I thought that was what normal people wanted. Why wouldn't they? Being loved by others is a fulfilling high. An emotional rush or endorphins. The ultimate goal. Right?

But these songs both reject that attitude. They both touch the story of someone who "trouble seems to follow". This is a person who has been in the dark and has now found the light. For FOB, I think the "light" comes from music, hence the chorus and title "Save Rock and Roll". But for Swift, the "light" comes from loving someone whose love for her is "golden".

That seems like character growth for both, but not completely. FOB went on hiatus for a number of reasons, but musical differences were a part of it. They nearly broke up because of the music, but they got back together because of it too. Swift was hurt by who she loved in the past, and became jaded as a result. But this new "golden" love could prove to be just as flawed over time.

So we are what we love. Swift is a romantic. FOB are musicians. Despite how those things have hurt them in the past, they can't help it. It's who they are. It doesn't matter if those things fade away for a time, they'll always find their way back. It took me 7 years to figure that out.

You are what you love, too. So what are you?

may i add

- "I'm two quarters and a heart down, and I don't want to forget how your voice sounds."

Fall Out Boy lyrics that make me feel things(part 1):

- "I don't know where you're going, but to you got room for one more troubled soul?"

- "'Til tonight do us part"

- "They say quitters never win, but we walked the plank on a sinking ship"

- "And all my thoughts of you, they could heat or cool the room"

- "The best way to make it through with hearts and wrists intact is to realize two out of three ain't bad"

- "I confessed to you riding shotgun underneath the purple skies"

- " Just off the key of reason I thought I loved you, but it's just how you looked in the light"

- "I'm a stitch away from making it, and a scar away from falling apart "

- "The glow of the cities below lead us back to the places that we never should have left"

- "We only do it for the scars and stories, not the fame"

- "Did you ever love her, do you know? Or did you never want to be alone?"

wonderful summary of my entire personality

My aesthetic: making blueberry muffins while listening to Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance

oh thank god

Ngl this is kinda hilarious

“gorgeous brilliant little paperclip” i am complete

The problem with being ADHD and having trouble reading long, rambling sentences and paragraphs that go on and on is that having ADHD makes you more likely to write in long, rambling sentences and paragraphs that go on and on do you see the problem I am encountering

i open tumblr for the first time this week and im met with this fuckery

every time i listen to “you’re a mean one mr. grinch” i can’t help but sit there and think “what did the grinch do to hurt you?” because dude just stands there for 2 minutes and 58 seconds and drags the grinch into the dirt

And that's that on that.

The shoes y'all help me pick out which I got as a present from my fam have arrived 🥺 Ragnar says they look great and would look even greater if I took them out for a walk... with him in tow 😂

So many TV shows/movies depict the Epi Pen as a total solution for anaphylaxis...it's not. The Epi Pen gives you 30 minutes to get to a hospital where they can save your life. TV makes it look like you just have to use the Epi Pen and then the crisis is over. Do people without allergies or a loved one with allergies know that an Epi Pen only buys you time? The more I see this on TV the more I worry...

**Maybe you should reblog this because I'm actually worried that most people don't know.

READ THE EPI PEN INSTRUCTIONS TOO!

-Don't cover the back end (blue) of the Epi Pen with your thumb.

-Make sure the Epi Pen clicks when you inject it in the thigh AND hold it down for several seconds.

i cant wait to be old for one reason and one reason only: young people adopting me :D

current ko-fi goal is "Taking My Grandma Out For A Nice Dinner As A Thank You For All She Does For Me"

(there's no punchline, I just really like my grandma)

but like… are we sure?

today I found out my mother doesn't know what dandelions are and now I'm wondering what other strange secrets she's been quietly harboring

ITS YOU! IVE SEEN YOU ON EVERY SINGLE SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM THAT EXISTS

Despite the fact that I’m only on two?

we love them and will support them always but omfg look at these idiots! pHIL STOP SWALLOWING GLUE!!! omg dAniEL yOu dOnT neEd to bE iNcreDibly dEep and MeaNinGfuL alL the TiMe

love how the entire fandom collectively is like “this is dan and phil. they’re idiots, we hate them. but i have watched every single upload and will continue to do so for the rest of time.” like. ive never seen another fandom do that.

LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK

the point of “gender is a social construct” isn’t that gender is meaningless, it’s that we should be allowed to decide what it means

if there’s one thing that phil’s appearance in this video proved it’s that he really is awkward when following a script

one time i was very late for class and the printer i was using broke down RIGHT AS I TRIED TO PRINT SOMETHINg. and a fellow student came over (obviously seeing my distress) and said “sup? having trouble? here…” and fucking took off his shoe and HIT THE PRINTER WITH IT. “excuse me what is that supposed to do,” i asked. and he was like “this piece of shit is out to get you. you just have to show it whose boss“ and then he LEFT and i never saw him again but i’ll always remember the boy who smacked a printer with his shoe to make it work for me

printers are inherently malicious creatures. i have never met a printer that does not on some level want to make everyone’s lives miserable. they are full of ink and malice

let’s pour one out for all the janitors who clean and never get enough appreciation

@aquietfather are you ok pal

I was visiting a friend of mine, staying over for the weekend, and realized I’d forgotten my toothpaste spoon. I asked my friend if they had a spare toothpaste spoon I could borrow, but they had no idea what a toothpaste spoon was. I tried to explain it to them, but they still didn’t understand, as they just stuck their toothbrush right into the bucket. They offered to loan me a tea spoon, but tea spoons don’t hold toothpaste the right way and aren’t as effective. It turned out their cat had a spare toothpaste spoon and I borrowed it, but it smelled slightly of sardines and made the brushing experience awkward.

i really need to start reading urls. i about had a heart attack after reading “tom hiddleston is retiring from acting”

Tom Hiddleston is retiring from acting and he came to my university to lecture about Shakespeare. I jumped out of my window (I live on the fifth floor) to run to university to catch his lecture. There were zombies on the way so I Ramboed my way through them. I arrived to uni just as Tom revealed himself to be Loki and that he was also Shakespeare's real life muse.

I had to run to my school because I needed to give my homework to the principal before 4:45pm. When I was running back, my gym teacher appeared and asked me to meet her kids. Then my sister appeared and told me I was in trouble because I didn’t turn in my homework by 4:45.

obama needs to get back to me quicker. i put in a request to have a guest appearance in my dreams months ago! i even paid extra for a quote! still haven’t gotten it tho.

I was walking through the mall and I headed into a Barnes & Noble, and Barack Obama was for some reason signing books there so I walked up, like ???? He wrote a book? Some biography?? When I got up to the desk, all the books were just lizards, and Obama replied to my inquires with a simple, “They may have no names, but there’s an identity to be acknowledged,” and he smiled as he signed another lizard and then there was something about a surprise dragon and then I woke up.
