imagine that!

Guys who make fun of guys who do ballet must not realise how disciplined, agile, coordinated and strong you have to be to be a ballet dancer.

Guys who make fun of ballet are stupid.

my legs hurt now

Also, ballet men have literally the most aesthetically pleasing body out of any other group of men I have ever encountered. And then can lift you over their heads!

Always wanted to try out. Martial arts game would def improve from it.

YO BUT OK i am a female ballet dancer and there are guys in my studio younger than me and by younger than me i mean like 12 or occasionally 11 because i am 13 and they can still lift me up and they dont even flinch they just pick me up like im a lil fairy its so impressive and they are 12 they are so great

Redefine masculinity

thank you finally a post about male ballet dancers!! they’re so under-appreciated in the outside world, and no one understands how hard it is for them

male ballet dancers are so graceful and masculine …. normalize and increase the number of male ballet dancers…..

Coraline is a masterfully made film, an amazing piece of art that i would never ever ever show to a child oh my god are you kidding me

Nothing wrong with a good dose of sheer terror at a young age

This is a legit psychology phenomenon tho like there’s a stop motion version of Alice and Wonderland that adults find viscerally horrifying, but children think is nbd. It’s like in that ‘toy story’ period of development kids are all kind of high key convinced that their stuffed animals lead secret lives when they’re not looking and that they’re sleeping on top of a child-eating monster every night so they see a movie like Coraline and are just like “Ah, yes. A validation of my normal everyday worldview. Same thing happened to me last Tuesday night. I told mommy and she just smiled and nodded.”

Stephen King had this whole spiel i found really interesting about this phenomenon about how kids have like their own culture and their own literally a different way of viewing and interpreting the world with its own rules that’s like secret and removed from adult culture and that you just kinda forget ever existed as you grow up it’s apparently why he writes about kids so much

An open-ended puzzle often gives parents math anxiety while their kids just happily play with it, explore, and learn. I’ve seen it so many times in math circles. We warn folks about it.

Neil Gaiman also said that the difference in reactions stems from the fact in “Coraline” adults see a child in danger - while children see themselves facing danger and winning

“Paris is anti-fascist!!”

There was some douchebag on Good Morning Britain this morning (not Piers Morgan) (though he *is* a douchebag) trying to defend Trump by saying “this is why people elected him, because they’re sick of elitists telling them things”. Another guy came back with the very valid argument: “Trump is a billionaire - you can’t get much more elitist than that!”

Photographer Devin Mitchell’s Veteran Art Project aims to show us the real men and women behind the uniforms of the military, who are oftentimes fighting for freedoms which they are not fully granted themselves.

I like this because tumblr has this stereotype of what type of people join the military.

This is too deep to comprehend.

Stop it

I THOUGHT THIS WAS GOING TO BE FUNNY

:(((((

not enough people reblogged this last year we gotta really try this time to have a Happy Wildcat New Year™

“They want to hire a part of me.”

Everything about this, from Carrie’s viscerally presented and excellent point, to the pun, to the look on Stephen’s face like he just fell in love.  Everything is so, so good.
