People on twitter call everyone they dislike a “grifter”, but this insult has not migrated to tumblr because no one here is making any money

Which is good, by the way. There’s nothing more degrading than watching grown adults act like pissy teenagers on twitter for clicks and tv appearances. Like, writing a callout over someone clicking “like” on the wrong post is dumb; but doing that on purpose, as a calculated machiavellian career move when you’re an adult who wears a suit to work and has a child… there’s something deeply pathetic, not to mention grotesque about it.

Here we can watch the pest in its natural habitat, and pretend we don’t know that it’s spreading, rotting apart the whole adult world.
