Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
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.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

No. The person choosing to "act" like a dick on the Internet is making the choice to be a dick. They don't just happen to be a dick in their roleplay or whatever - they're making that choice.
And it's not some pretend space where their words and actions don't count. Being a dick in a multiplayer video game is being a dick to a real person. Being a dick on a forum about a game or show you don't like is being a dick to real people who play and make those things. You don't get to copout and say "it's just a character" when it's affecting real people. That is your impact on the world. Take some damn responsibility for it.
Also, Audrey II is from Little Shop of Horrors. Check it out if you haven't. It's a good flick.
