You guys do know you’re supposed to reblog things, right
“well i like this post but i’m worried my followers might not” fuck your followers. The entire point of tumblr is to cause irreparable psychic damage to your followers. We are locked in mortal combat on the astral plane. You must win. You Must Win. You Must Destroy Them.
i know people make these kinds of posts with fictional characters a lot but like. hank green truly is one of The Most Guys Ever. like. he’s one of the earliest youtubers who is still on there. he’s a 43-year-old tiktok star. he’s a science educator. he got cancer and his response was to make a tier list of the press’s coverage of his cancer announcement. the president of the united states sent him a message of support and he told the president that he was pissing out the cancer. years earlier he was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis and his response was to write a polka song about it. he created vidcon. he’s the ceo of a company that produces a shitton of educational series (well, not acting ceo at the moment due to the aforementioned cancer). his guitar says “this machine pwns n00bs” on it. he invented 2D glasses. one of his earliest videos to get popular was about animal sex. between him and his brother, he was known as “the science one” (or “the music one”) while his brother was “the writer one,” and then he wrote two new york times bestselling novels. his most controversial opinion is that butt is legs. he’s done so many things that there is a website dedicated to counting the number of days since he started a new thing. he and his brother use their internet following to (among other things) fight maternal/infant mortality in sierra leone. he has a baked bean furby. hes even bisexual
In 1998. his Winter Park High School classmates named him “Best Dancer.” He’s had an album on the Billboard Charts, and he won an Emmy for a web-based adaptation of Pride & Prejudice. He co-founded DFTBA.com, the Awesome Coffee Club, the Awesome Sock Club, and Sun Basin Soap–but doesn’t make money from any of them. Instead he’s led these brands to donate over $5,000,000 to a hospital in Sierra Leone. His companies, when he stepped down as CEO due to the cancer, had over 115 full-time employees, all of whom receive a living wage and good benefits. His production company, Complexly, has made educational videos with 5 billion total views, and helped hundreds of millions learn through SciShow and Crash Course. He is the sweetest dad to the world’s most amazing six-year-old, and the spouse of one of the funniest people you’ll ever meet, and he is loved–ferociously–by his brother. He truly is among the Most Guys Ever.

reblogging SPECIFICALLY for the End Note which is widely applicable
[Video description: A stitched tiktok.
The first part is of the same person roleplaying both a parent and a child. The child character is eating a donut and says “I think I’m a girl”.
It cuts to the parent character, angry, saying “Well you’re not. Shut up and eat your donut.”
The second part is a stitch by @/freshcoralblast who says:
“So I’m a mystical being that can tell the future. I’m gonna give you uh, a play by play on what’s gonna go down for the next 20 years.”
“So I’m sitting on the floor, you might as well get comfortable while I tell you what’s gonna go down. So that’s gonna keep happening, it’s gonna keep happening.”
“At about 9, maybe 10, he’s gonna ask for a pink colored Nerf gun instead of a blue one, and you’re gonna get really passive aggressive about it, and he’s not gonna know why, but he’s old enough to remember shit now, and that’s gonna be a problem later on.”
“Wow! Later on happens. 13, 14, 15, this age range is very very important for a parent not being a cunt like you, but here we are. Because whatever you say, that kid’s gonna go against it and start questioning shit.”
“And one day you’re gonna catch him wearing like, a crop top, and you’re gonna kick his ass, you’re gonna- cause these are the types of people that like, physically abuse their kids when they do something wrong, you know.”
“Now you don’t know it yet, but, you lost them forever. For ever. He’s gone. He’s gonna never bring friends over to your house, no, he’s gonna tell all his friends, yell "my parents are assholes, can I go to your house?”.“
"And that’s where he’s gonna be, trying on fucking feminine clothing, putting on make-up, because he knows that he’s not gonna get abused by anyone by doing that. You know, it’s gonna be great. He’s gonna have a great time.”
“And then college happens, and he’s gonna get a real taste of adulthood and freedom away from you, and I wouldn’t be surprised if she fully transitioned by 20. Like, just completely.”
“And in that time, you’re gonna talk less and less and less and less, you’re not gonna know who she’s in a relationship with, if she’s getting married, her first house, what state she lives in, she’s never ever gonna show you her kids, never. You’re never gonna meet your grandkids.”
“And… You’re not gonna know why. you’re gonna be so far up your own ass, that you’re just not gonna accept that you have been the problem for decades, and… That’s it.”
“You’re gonna be on your deathbed in 40 fucking years and just go, "Man, where did I go wrong?”, but I’m telling you the answer, and you’re not gonna believe it, but here we are.“
"And just as an ending note, you don’t love your kids. Love is unconditional. What you do is very conditional. "Be exactly how I want you to be or I’m not gonna love you”. You don’t fucking love your kids. Don’t you dare pretend, don’t you tell them that you love them without meaning it. That’s fucked up.“

As someone who cut off contact with their bio family decades ago, they absolutely are not going to figure out where they went wrong. If they were willing to do the self reflection thing they would have done that a long time ago.
Cutting off contact with them was one of the best decisions I ever made. I’ve never regretted it and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Will they wonder where they went wrong on their deathbeds? Probably not. But it doesn’t matter to me. I have my own life now and my happiness does not depend on them taking ownership of their actions.
this is a very relatable meme but i cannot stress enough that if you haven’t watched the good place you’re going to be very surprised to learn what words are being replaced here
