Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

There's a version that has a bit more.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 45 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I wonder if this is still going…

[–] Kovukono@pawb.social 35 points 3 weeks ago

I don't think it is. I looked it up and couldn't find anything further in the thread from them. Their account has been deactivated, so (I think) the original is gone and we just have reblogs. Wayback Machine doesn't have it either.

I don't call myself a man, but your wife still calls me to fuck

That hotmeat89 guy seems it has script for years. At this point I respect the commitment goddamn!

Shout out to all the Nat Guard and Marines currently 'defending our freedom' in LA!

... and of course their famously faithful wives they married 3 months before their first deployment!

Someone's gotta drive the Dodge Hellcat before it gets repo'd...

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Its always a fucking Hellcat lol.

I mean, not literally always... but ... there are so many car dealerships right outside of so many bases... gotta spend that signing bonus on something, apparently, and that something is almost always a Hellcat.

[–] EmptySlime@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It makes perfect sense. They prey on poor people to fill out that "voluntary" recruitment. When you've been poor all your life and suddenly you get that signing bonus no matter how responsible you are there's no way you're not going to buy something at least a little fun for yourself. You've likely had a shitty car all your life if you had one at all. You put all that together and it's really easy to see why so many of them do it.

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Yep, you got it.

I always find it funny when people think these stereotypical behaviors of young military dudes are... just rude stereotypes.

Some of them, sure, but a lot of them, nope, generally actually true, sorry buddies, capitalism figured out another way to exploit your poverty and lack of education, with mathematical precision, and you fell for it, again.

I’m in Hawai’i and I basically assume all Hellcats and Corvettes are military. So when they cut me off in traffic or whatever, instead of getting angry I just say a little “easy there recruit” or “settle down Private” to myself. It makes me chuckle and keeps me from sin.

[–] P1k1e@lemmy.world 34 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

More interestingly, it's also pretty common for girls who wanna leave their man to push him into service so she doesn't have to deal with him after. In boot we had a wall of dear John's 2 weeks in

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 3 weeks ago (6 children)

Yup yup yup.

On one level, I genuinely empathize with guys going through that... probably totally emotionally and mentally devastating for the vast majority of them.

On the other hand... its so common, and usually so many people in their lives will tell them that.... that is probably gonna happen to them, and they don't listen.

Shit sucks man, I've never been in any military service, but I've known guys its happened to.

Oh and then you've got this: Hrm, could this phenomenon maybe play a role in female service members getting SA'd and raped?

You know, just maybe?

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 15 points 3 weeks ago (17 children)

wait … I wanna make sure you’re not blaming woman for other women being raped.

Right?

Whilst I knew them empathizing was what came naturally but thinking back on some of those cases, those dudes were not the greatest folks. Like of course they were basically kids being like 19 on average but I'd bet money some of those girls were doing it cuz these dudes were aggro

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I mean generally yeah, asshole aggro dudebros is anecdotally most of what I've seen as well.

But, I have seen it happen to a few genuinely good natured and well intentioned, but just colossally naive and/or astoundingly brainwashed/gaslit guys as well.

Nah, it's just the macho dudebro attitude that pervades a lot of the military with a side helping of good old boys club, not jilted husbands.

I hope this guy or someone like him visits all those National Guard's wives. This deployment will involve orders that should not be followed. We need the constitution amended so the national guard cannot be deployed into a state without that states governors permission.

with 3 confirmed kills

Yeah, 2 of them where kids and one was a pregnant woman he thought was carrying a bomb.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I feel strongly one of the more probable solutions to the fermi paradox is simply that we have a sizeable number of people in our species who still take pride and joy in the idea of taking lives, under any context.

No, we're not allowed out there. No, we can't have good things.

Raise your kids better you asshats.

Wouldn't that be four confirmed kills by Republican standards?

It's all fun and games until he bangs the wife of someone who graduated top class of Navy Seals and has been involved in numerous secret raids against Al-Qaeda, with over 300 confirmed kills, is trained in gorilla warfare and is the best sniper of the army

edit: I see the downvoters don't know about this classic 🤣

It's all fun and games then, too.

I've lived in a region where ethical non-monogamy is so normalized that I look at the photo and think "ok...?"

[–] elevenbones@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 weeks ago (8 children)

idk if its the app im using (interstellar) but that's beyond blurry for me.

[–] Foofighter@discuss.tchncs.de 24 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

With sync for lemmy, I got to go into the post first and click the image there to get the resolution. As if clicking the image directly just opens a preview.

Quality is good on Voyager

[–] Maestro@fedia.io 5 points 3 weeks ago

It's perfectly fine for me (mbin) so I guess it must be the app.
