The MOST precious creature ever? Precious?
Aww, it’s just a touch of Tumblrland Hyperbole™, y’know! Here’s an example of what I consider precious:
I thought about posting a pic of Claudia but she’s not precious, she’s a weapon of mass destruction disguised as a #perfect cinnamon bun, too good for this world.

#Your Headcanon May Vary
I got an Anon message today about an issue (the message started with an ellipsis “… ”) , and I’m not going to take a side, nor publish it(gonna practice nonviolent civil disobedience
like Gandhi), bc it wouldn’t solve anything between the differing opinions but I have a need to respond to every message in a timely manner so this is how I have to do it.
This blog is about inclusiveness, and a big part of that is tolerance of different people’s opinions. Even if they are widely considered BATSHIT CRAY CRAY opinions. It’s not my job to tell people what to think. I run this blog for fun. If I really believe my concept of something is 100% infallible, I can only share my idea and the reasoning behind it, and hope I can win over the opposing side. Beyond that, it’s not worth getting aggravated over. 2 of my fave fandom mantras are:
#Your headcanon may vary, #Ship and let ship.
It’s a great thing that there are informed people who want to correct the record here in tumblrland, and I have learned SO MUCH re: the wide spectrum of issues that we have in this world, my opinions have definitely been altered. Once you’ve said/writ your peace and the other side is still not budging, you may still be right, but try not to let it stress you out.
One thing about tumblr, and Life in general, is that there are a lot of uninformed ppl and ~hyperbole~ (veering towards the negative or the positive), is part of the language here since all we have is the written word, and sometimes meant to be a little sarcastic. Meant to even be humorous. “But I didn’t think it was funny! It was majorly offensive!” you say. Well, maybe you didn’t find it funny. Maybe 9/10 people didn’t. But, maybe it was funny for 1 person. At least that person who posted it. Plus, exaggerated opinions are more likely to be Liked/Reblogged, which encourages it.
This is a great little article about trying to find the humor in reality: Laughing Through Life: Humor in Autobiographical Writing, by Tim Jackson.
“The world around us is often a frightening place. We can read a newspaper or watch the news on TV and be overwhelmed with morbid information. We need a laugh now and then. Humor really does tend to save us when things simply aren’t going our way. Laughter is good for our health; good for our soul.”
