I’m trying not to reblog posts on this blog but I feel that this is important to post here.

And for the people asking “Well if you don’t support it irl then why would you like it in fiction?!” Because when it’s happening irl real people are suffering and dying and that’s horrible and I’d never want that. But when it’s fiction, when no real people are being hurt or killed, it’s interesting to explore the experience, the effects it may have, and to an extent experience the emotions involved without actually having to experience the horrible thing. You explore scary, dangerous things from a safe distance.

So are you an “art block feels like [textbook description of several major symptoms of unmedicated ADHD]” artist, or an “art block feels like [textbook description of several major symptoms of clinical depression]” artist?

I’m astounded at the level of personality that can be predicted from the word vape and these glasses.

this is the meanest thing anyone’s ever said to me in my entire life but I can’t even argue with this. what could I possibly say to defend myself in this instance. this was a one hit KO. this was a murder. this was a fucking slaughter and I have only myself to blame

You act like people knowing you’re in the Squirtle Squad is a bad thing?

yes that is exactly where these glasses are from. a perfectly respectable long standing anime and nothing more

It would be nice to be able to actually see the night sky again.

Part of the New Internet Grammar: using question marks not to denote questions, but upturns in voice, so that a tentative statement gets a question mark but a flatly delivered question doesn’t.

why would you do this

It just seems right?

#this entire scene is a fucking masterpiece  #the building tension in Barbossa’s cabin  #the strings in the score rising ominously  #and then the entire movie turns on a /dime/  #‘oh okay’  #I remember thinking  #‘fucking GHOST PIRATES’  #it drops from historical swashbuckler to fantasy swashbuckler in one set piece  #in which the rules for how the crew work are given to you purely in visuals  #and you get to see that sharp difference between horror-horror and fun horror  #because this scene genuinely terrifies Elizabeth  #and delights /you/  #instead of being awful for both of you  #god it’s just so neatly done and raises the stakes for the film and puts everything into context and adds depth to the characters  #and comes as a complete surprise  #this is all the things you want in a set piece  #we should all aspire to storytelling so economical  #(incidentally so should THE SEQUELS  #christ)  (via wizzard890)

all my life I’ve somehow only ever seen the gifs of this. I never even knew that the pumpkin man was dancing to the Ghostbusters theme. This whole thing is so much better than I ever could have expected from the gifs omg

This is just how propaganda works. If you hear something often enough for long enough, you'll eventually believe it.

Infowars is propaganda, but it's more than just propaganda. Alex presents information in a distinct high-speed stream-of-consciousness way that drowns the listener in noise. It's so fast that it almost forces the listener to construct a sort of idealogical scaffolding out of unconnected ideas just to keep up. I think it would be fair to call it hypnotic.

“Watch out for the bunny girls”

every time i see this image it makes me happy

That “I think I fucked up” was timed perfectly
