They dumped plastic skeletons in environmentally protected areas, against the literal contracts they had to sign to get the permits to film in environmentally protected areas. Like they not only did a bad ecological thing that freaked out some divers, they literally broke environmental protection laws and their contract with the Italian government

I find Nikki as a person distinct from the wish genuinely very compelling, just as a character. She apparently isn’t into sappy romantic gestures, and would find the idea of citrine being “sunshine in a rock” lame. At the same time, she’s not cold hearted. In fact, she’s openly very affectionate: she calls everyone she meets babe, jokes around with Ian, tells Sarah she loves her, gives money to the homeless, pays for her friend’s drinks, and thanks Bear for being someone she can talk to. She calls up Bear to talk about both their days and convince him to come to trivia night, then checks in to make sure he’s okay when she finds out why he didn’t want to come. Even though she’s not into sappy stuff, the book she’s writing is a love story. She’s straight up with Bear about the fact that Sarah’s into him and tells him in no uncertain terms when he’s crossed a boundary by calling her “freaky Nikki”. On the whole, the fifteen minutes we spend with her paint the picture of someone who is wholly genuine, and, it seems, someone who really values honesty. Which is why Bear messed up so badly by lying to her. All she asks is for him to be honest about if he has feelings for her, even says “now is the time to tell me” and he still can’t tell her the truth. And, she can clearly tell that’s the case. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter whether she would’ve said yes to a date because he didn’t ask. She might’ve gone. She might not have. But instead of risking her declining, Bear chose that he’d rather her be with him no matter the cost.

in all fairness, toddlers are funny as fuck. babies will cry because they are experiencing at least ten different senses for the first time all at once and it’s a bit overwhelming for them. fair enough. toddlers will make the most wretched sound you’ve ever heard because you wouldn’t let them run out into a car park and die

I told a guy his total was 13.21 and he said “wish it were that year, could actually get some good music on the radio”

breaking news from the AP, our boys on the front have just sacked constantinople. take that, heretics. coming up next are the soothing lute dirges of bing crosby

When I am king, we will valorize sanitation workers the way we currently valorize the military

So heroic posters showing trashmen battling allegorical monsters? I'm down.

Yeah but that's just the beginning. I also want Sanitation Worker Discounts at every business and blockbuster movie propaganda glorifying sanitation work. I want random people to salute garbage collectors and thank them for their service. I want drivers who get impatient with the recycling truck and honk at it and swerve around it to become social pariahs

if you post ai slop i’ll block you btw !!! <3 i don’t want ts on my dashboard, i prefer HUMAN MADE ART. ITS NOT EVEN ART IF ITS AI.

I feel it would be good to have a word that's like not ragebait but shamebait, where you can read a post and just go 'ah, this person just wants me to feel ashamed of myself and is not engaging with the issue in a constructive or useful way. I do not have to participate in this actually' and like. move on with your day
