“they knew it was wrong, you can tell because they did things to avoid getting in trouble” is such a profoundly terminally neurotypical conclusion to reach and i am sick of seeing it repeated as a truism

“people generally avoid getting negative attention such as being yelled at, shunned, or punished. This is proof that they, like you, have an innate, unlearned connection to a metaphysical Higher Cosmic Truth that the socially discouraged behavior they just did is a Universal Moral Evil. Everybody who is not me also thinks this deep down in their soul, and if you dont agree, you’re lying because you’re a bad, guilty evil person.”

I hate how sunscreen has been coopted into the anti-anging skincare category because, in reality, sunscreen is categorically a cancer preventative that also just so happens to keep you looking young

I know men who refuse to wear sunscreen because “lotion is for women.”

Capitalism has redefined cancer prevention as makeup to hike up prices, and people are dying (needlessly, painfully, horribly) because of it.

Don’t be an idiot. Wear the damn sunscreen.

I really wish I could make it clear to people that asking for updates usually has the opposite effect, even when you add “please” to your sentence. I’m not saying this to be mean, and I know the comments are meant well, that they’re a way for people to show they’re thinking of the fic. However, my brain is a rude thing and will immediately put that fic in the “nope” category, even when or especially when I was already working on it. Leaving a heart emoji, a short ’re-read kudos’, or anything of the sort is far more effective at communicating that people are thinking of the fic, without making my brain shelve the fic for the next couple of days.

If I haven’t updated a fic for a while, trust me, it’s not because I’ve forgotten about it; I know when I haven’t updated in months. It usually is because I’m struggling with real life, with writer’s block, or am feeling burnt out with that particular fic. In short, I’m not postponing the updates on purpose.

You knowwww the character fixation bad when you can’t even pretend it’s sexual. Like no actually I’m not thinking abt him getting beat up because it turns me on. I want to see him bloody and crying for entirely different reasons and somehow that makes it even worse

miraclemaya:

the problem is that discussions is impossible when everyone is deeply terrified about being branded as “a bad person”, as if such a thing truly exists, because suddenly all categories, all descriptors, exist primarily in how many fallout karma points they give or take away.

columbo should be public domain. he should be allowed to show up in anything. the columbo episode should be one of the standard types of tv episode like the beach episode or the episode where a character shrinks and explores the insides of someone’s body

Just so younger trans dudes hear it from another transmasc who Might be older: it’s fine to not be passing. If there’s a “yet” after that sentence for you, that’s fine too. Regardless of where you’re going, you still deserve a voice when it comes to speaking on your experiences as a trans person. Don’t let any loser tell you otherwise.

hey so me and my friends spent like three years dubbing the 1986 Mario movie as if it was actually dubbed in the 80s. It’s got everything- bizarre translation, questionable voice direction, and the replacement of all Japanese food. Also new English songs. It’ll be out tomorrow, here’s a link: https://youtube.com/@marioradioshow3289?si=CJ5DK0I0ZsHEwjny

when I was in college in the 1990s I took a document design course and we had to go talk to an archivist at the university library

the library had a single page from a gutenberg bible (the bible had been damaged by fire and the remaining undamaged pieces cut apart and sold) and a CD sitting next to each other

we looked at the bible page, marveling at this 500+ year old page with its neatly set type, carefully kept under a sheet of glass to protect it

and then she held up the CD and pointed out that in 500 years, if a CD could even last that long, it was unlikely we’d possess the technology to read it

and we all got very quiet and look at the book page for a long time

and is evidenced by the fact I’m telling you about this almost 30 years later, I have never forgotten that blank-looking shiny piece of plastic sitting next to a beautiful, ancient piece of paper that someone pressed words into with a machine and left for me to read, hundreds of years before I was born.

i’ve been playing a lot of balatro lately, and at one point i turned on high contrast cards, had the thought of ‘wow those are almost tmnt colors,’ which then eventually led to ’…i wonder how hard it is to mod this game’

turns out it’s not too hard..!

i might’ve doomed myself here a little tho bc now i want a complete set of face cards.. which means drawing 8 more characters..

Autistic Person: “I did what came natural to me. I was hated, outcasted, and punished. So I burned myself out trying to avoid that. I then became invisible. I eventually became tired of being invisible, especially since it required me to burn myself out in order to achieve. But I had no idea what to do about it, and I couldn’t get advice from anyone because no one ever believed that my struggles were even possible. So I took wild guesses at how to get noticed. People then thought I was weird again. I was hated, outcasted, and punished again. After some time, once I realized that my attempts to get noticed were failing and would never succeed, I avoided drawing attention to myself. I then became invisible again. After some time, I again got tired of being invisible, and took different wild guesses at how to get noticed. And yet again, I was hated, outcasted, and punished. So I went back to being invisible, and eventually everyone forgot about me.

I am spoiling the live action Lilo & Stitch. And I am doing it up front and plainly.

Do not fucking see this movie. Do not waste your money on this. Period.

They made Nani give Lilo up to the American government. They made Nani LEAVE Hawaii and pursue being a marine biologist. They made a native Hawaiian character give up her sibling to pursue a dream that she originally did not have. This is imperialist propaganda at its FINEST.

The original fucking movie is about family staying together. It’s about indigenous people being able to stay with each other and stay in their home and be together! That’s the whole fucking point! Nani is Lilo’s last living relative on her homeland—it is jarring, it is disgusting and disturbing that Nani would not only leave her last blood relative alone, give her up to the very government that is harming native Hawaiians TODAY, but also travel to the “mainland” for her dream!

Not to mention, Nani’s actress isn’t fucking Hawaiian. She’s much paler in photos and real life. They fucking darkened her for this movie.

Don’t even get me started on the transgender subtext of Pleakley’s “human” disguise from the original movie being completely erased in favor of him being played by a regular ass white man. Jumba doesn’t have his accent, they made him more villainous, and his “human” disguise is a non-fat white man—which part of his original joke, I know, is that he was bigger and was more clumsy in the movie because of his size, but to have the main shape of his character completely removed is also fucking weird.

This live action movie is a desecration to the original. I encourage you to not see it, please. Don’t give Disney any of your money on this one. Just watch the original. Please just watch the original.

The new message in the live action movie is disturbing and gross.

This is one of the most disrespectful live actions I’ve seen and heard of. I implore you to not watch it.

I have not seen this movie nor will i see this movie, I was born & raised in Hawaii & was fortunate enough to grow up around native Hawaiian culture. So let me explain how casting a white actress as Nani then putting her in brown face is not the only thing they did wrong w her character, it is definitely the worst thing they did but it isn’t the only thing they did

To have Nani pursue marine science… isn’t necessarily a bad thing if it was what she wanted in the original but her actual dream in the original movie was to b a professional surfer. She has surfing trophies in her room in the original movie!

surfing holds an extremely important role in Hawaiian culture its not simply a sport or past time. Surfing has roots of hundreds of years in Polynesia as a whole & in Hawaii specifically. In tht tradition u don’t simply buy a board: u make it. You have to find a tree tht u feel is ur board & u make ur board yourself, that’s without even mentioning tht these boards were often made from a tree considered sacred in Hawaiian cosmology

It was a native Hawaiian man, Duke Kahanamoku, who brought surfing to the world & dreamed of it becoming an Olympic sport. He’s the reason Australians even know what surfing is much less how to surf. Tht board tht life guards have at beaches exists because Duke once saved every man from a sinking vessel with his surf board alone when the actual life guards had no way of getting out to the wreck bc of waves. The most prestigious surfing event is an invitation only event named for & honoring another native Hawaiian man, Eddie Aikau, who was both a phenomenal surfer & legendary life guard. There’s a saying in Hawaii “Eddie would go” bc he would go out in the worst & most extreme conditions in his duty as a life guard when his fellow life guards wouldn’t. To remove Nani from tht heritage not just by casting a white woman in brown face but abandoning her connection to surfing compounds the disrespect native Hawaii is put thru in this remake especially when the original movie was so respectful & caring of the native Hawaiian culture

A movie abt fucking surfing penguins is more respectful of surfing than this movie, don’t give this movie money by going to see it & don’t give it money by streaming it

People realize that multiple stories with similar premises can exist without ripping each other off, right. Like, there’s no idea that can’t be compared to another idea, because humanity had been coming up with stories since we started thinking, right. Like there are times when someone is copying someone else on purpose, but more often than not, things are similar just because tropes exist, right.

the more i learn about william shakespeare the more i lose my mind

his tragedy coriolanus contains the first recorded use of the word lonely meaning bill shakespeare might have invented the word lonely

the phrase the word lonely first appeared in is “like to a lonely dragon”

also on an unrelated note two of his distant relatives were executed in 1583 for a plot to kill the queen. they were beheaded and their heads were placed on pikes on london bridge meaning as young aspiring thespian william shakespeare arrived in london for the very first time, he might have been greeted by his relatives’ rotting heads. i woulda turned around and gone the fuck back to stratford

in his time period life expectancy was 35. monks were expected to drink gallon of beer a day. the names “agnes” and “anne” were interchangeable because the g was silent so it’s entirely possible shakespeare was married to a woman named agnes instead. the words “trash” “fart” and “slut” existed, but not the word “science.” speaking of language by 1600 “thou” had fallen out of fashion meaning shakespeare might’ve only included it to be more fucking dramatic

he never once spelled his surname “shakespeare” (he preferred “shakspere” apparently) and he once signed a legal document as “willm shaksp”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WILLM SHAKSP
