you youngins think tumblr bandom is bad now but did you ever sift through the notes of your posts and have to read 38 variations of the url “piercethesleepingmiceandmen?” did you ever click on a blog, only to be subjected to sleeping with sirens’ acoustic version of their song if you’re james dean i’m audrey hepburn on autoplay, with no means to turn it off? did you spend hours debating with teenagers over whether or not vic fuentes self harmed due to misinformation spread through an ugly black and white collage emblazoned with “IF THEY MADE IT YOU CAN TOO” in bold lettering that was posted to every relevant band’s tag at least once a week for months, no, years, despite the only basis for this claim being a screencap of a fake vic roleplay account on facebook? do you know how many times i’ve read the phrase “not all heroes wear capes…except maybe him” accompanied by a photo of andy biersack wearing that fucking batman costume? did you experience squidgy and sheepcat? did you have to grit your teeth and bare it when vaguely racist bloggers called your favorite band “sexicans,” over and over and over again? you don’t know what i’ve had to do to get where i am now. you don’t know what i’ve been through
i was just recommended this in the year 2016 and i’m convinced it was to punish me for this post and my sins
