the oranges holy shit

My gods, the "corn" one is creepy. :)

For context, it used to be that if you searched “Buddy Holly song that sounds like a dude jacking it” on YouTube, this upload is the first thing that would come up. The comments were disabled, presumably because everyone was making jokes about how the song sounds like a dude jacking it. YouTube must have updated their search results algorithm recently, because searching that phrase no longer returns this or any other upload of Everyday, and because of this, I guess OP decided it was okay to enable comments again. However, I have a strong suspicion that they are deleting a lot of jokes about this because looking through the top comments I saw only veiled references to the fact that this song sounds like a dude jacking it, and knowing how YouTube comments function, the odds of this occurring naturally are very low.

What I’m trying to say here is that I strongly encourage everyone to keep making jokes about the fact that legendary musician Buddy Holly, intentionally or not, made a song that ABSOLUTELY sounds like a dude jacking it, if for no other reason than to spite YouTube for taking away a small, stupid thing that made me giggle.

Could NOT have predicted what I was in for before the image loaded. Why is it a ray gun. Why are they in the snow. Why that outfit in the snow.

1. That’s not a ray gun, that’s a revolver with an absurdly huge scope on it.
2. Hunter is in the snow because he lived in the Colorado mountains near Aspen when that picture was taken.
3. That’s basically his back yard.
4. He’s dressed like that because up until moments before the photo he was writing.
5. He’s shooting his typewriter because he’s a writer.

Happy Birthday to Hunter S Thompson!

no but jokes aside this is actually really great. malicious compliance in the best way.

here's a quote from a Pink News article about this that really stuck with me:

Elia Bonci, who also spoke to la Repubblica, said: “I took courage, used my deadname and signed up for Miss Italy because fighting transphobia is intersectional and even though I’m not a trans woman, I’ve decided to fight for their rights.”

the whole point is to show how "afab" being used as a replacement for woman is fucking stupid and fundamentally incorrect and. whatever else. and it gives me hope to see the community rising up like this. solidarity and unity and peace on planet earth.

[ID: tweet from mimmymum reads: Over 100 trans men entry Miss Italy pageant after organizer says only "women from birth" allowed. (clapping emojis. Laughing emojis) attached is an article from uk.news.yahoo.com that shows a photo of one of the men and a photo of pageant girls. /]
