Tumblr user "boomer-mythology-destroyer" has reworked a "missing the point" meme. On the far left is a trebuchet, just after firing. A pink arrow tracing the arc of fire is bisected by a large boulder. Directly underneath is a cartoon head which has a dotted arrow pointing to the trebuchet from its eyes, and a speech bubble saying "trebuchet."

Tumblr user "jadeharleyinc" reblogs and adds "hey sorry. can you stand a little further back and we try again"

Three Tumblr posts from user cryptotheism:
1. Okay but the American education system literally didn't tell us how to defend against horse archers
2. I'm sorry but the comments being full of people confidently proclaiming that a shield wall or a counter-charge would totally work is the most Tumblr thing ever.
3. I love my council of useless blue haired pronoun eunuchs but you are going to get us murdered by partial cataphracts.

Tumblr user bill-blake-fans-anonymous reblogs having reworked the TMNT logo to instead read "useless bluehaired pronoun eunuchs"

Thankfully they are unbothered in the no braincell lane. See how he naps rather than attack peaceful protesters? Very demure. Very mindful.

Two panel meme. The first: A knockoff Elmo sits at a table with a pile of two apples and two bananas on one side, and a bright orange electric stove burner on the other. The bright orange makes it clear the stove is very hot. The 2nd panel has been blurred to make it clear Elmo slammed his face into the stove burner very fast.

Black text reads "WANTED" with a picture underneath of a smiling white man with greying dark hair and black suit. Text below the picture identifies him as "Brett "Wilkins" Shumate", one of the lawyers pushing the executive order that would end birthright citizenship. "Wilkins" refers to the Supreme Court Case he cited that means Native Americans don't have birthright citizenship, however that case, "Elk v Wilkins", was overturned by Congressional Law and not undone by executive orders. Underneath his name is a black with white text that reads "for sleeping through history class." Small black text beneath that reads "if you have any information regarding his whereabouts, please contact your nearest American Law 101 class." end

Black back and text reading "wanted". Underneath, a picture of a brunette white man with glasses, in a black suit. Very slender and giving "lawyer." Underneath, black text identifies him as Yuri "Wilkins" Fuchs, one of the attorneys pushing the executive order trying to end birthright citizenship. "Wilkins" refers to "Elk vs Wilkins", a supreme court case in 1884 that ruled Native Americans don't have birthright US citizenship but was overruled by Congressional Law in 1924. A black bar with white text says "for sleeping through history class." Below that, black text reads "if you have any information regarding his whereabouts, please contact your nearest American Law 101 class." He and the other attorneys have begun to argue Native Americans don't have birthright citizenship and cited "Elk v Wilkins."

Screenshot of a Tumblr post from 2022 reading "say what you want about Europeans, but we all just overwhelmingly voted for men dressed like this to win our biggest music competition" with 2 photos. 1, of winners Kalush Orchestra from Ukraine. The lead rapper is in a bright pink bucket hat with traditional vest and white linen shirt. The lead singer is in traditionally embroidered clothing with cape playing his flute. The other flutist is in a sort of gilly suit where the fringe is black on top, red around the thighs, and yellow on bottom. He is very mop-like. The back up rapper and breakdancer (who is upside down spinning on his head) are basically wearing traditional rugs - the rapper's is a long tunic and the dancer has sweatpants and a long sleeve shirt. The lighting is yellow behind them. The 2nd photo is Moldovan folk-punk band Zdob Si Zdub, who came in 2nd with the public vote and 7th overall. The lead singer has a baseball cap and lumpy red jacket over blue shirt with black shorts and red socks pulled up his calves, and sunglasses. He is mid-dance how a 45 year old dad that's a punk rocker might dance. The drummer can't really be seen, but the guitarist and bassist are in black jeans and t-shirts with sunglasses. The Advohov Brothers, folk artists featured on the track, who play the fiddle and accordion, are dressed in matching white suits with black train track patterns all over. The stage lighting is purple behind them.French venn diagram - in left circle, un chat (cat). In right circle, du l'eau (water). In the middle, un château (castle)

Ah damnit that was a completely different conversation I didn't screenshot; the screenshots I have are him arguing Trump's "I just start kissing them; I don't even wait" comment isn't describing sexual assault because the women "let" him do it and don't negatively react in the moment.
2016 Facebook comments, someone labeled "OP" argues that it's exploitative for Trump to say "because I'm a star I can do anything" because it emphasizes his power over women's consent. OP allows Trump could've phrased things poorly, but it sounds like he assaults women.

Lippincott, labeled Douche Canoe, says that women are moral agents who can resist powerful men, and that because Trump says he's taken rejection well means he's not a rapist. He compares Trump walking up to women and kissing them to drunk men starting to make out with random women in the club who don't resist. That because he shouldn't call the cops on the man in the 2nd scenario means there's no observable crime when, again, Trump walks up to a woman and kisses her without waiting.

A third commenter, asks, "What the hell?!"
