I’d best be seeing that anti JKR energy for this twilight show too bc Smeyer continuing to profit off the Quileute tribe is not cute
I keep seeing people on Twitter being all "I'm sure they'll be more respectful and mindful of the Quileute tribe this time around."
Except, they won't be. Even if they get actual Native American actors to play these characters, even if they bring on a Native American to serve as a cultural advisor, it wont matter. Why? Because Smeyer appropriated a real Native American tribe and twisted their culture and history in her fantasy books for her own profit.
This fictional Quileute Tribe is and always will be disrespectful to the real life Quileute tribe.
The Quileute Tribe is still taking donations to move out of the immediate tsunami zone as of April 2023. Instead of directing attention to this TV series if/when comes out (and even if it doesn't honestly), please consider supporting the tribe financially here if you can afford it.
be pro-aging but wear sun screen. sun protection is not beauty industry propaganda it will save you. wear it. or else.
You Can Tell A Lot about Someone theough Repeated exposure to them and the usage of your.e observational skills
adventure time lore is insane. it starts off just being a goofy kids show that has magic for no reason, but then you learn that all magic users are manic and/or depressed (what betty calls sadness and madness). because it turns out magic is actually a cosmic force beyond mortal comprehension, that itself was learned from cosmic entities that predated the existence of time itself inside a sea of monsters. and "magic" really is just understanding more about the nature of the universe than most people. that, in a way, reality isnt "real" and understanding that allows you to mold it. and thats magic. but that drives you to insanity and/or apathy. and there are beings who hold significant cosmic importance who are more prone to magic. and the reason magic became prevalent on earth is because of a nuclear war a thousand years ago, which released the entity that represents the destruction of all life onto the world. and after a nuclear apocalypse this gave way to a new earth, where magic could thrive. but a lot of the beings we see arent even magical, theyre just mutants from what happened 1000 years ago. and humanity as we know it has been all but wiped out. but everything stays the same because cycles of war and violence continue. and it doesnt matter if its nukes or magic. everything stays the same, but still changes.
bwhat? how do the stretchy yellow dog and princess made of candy figure into this
so the stretchy yellow dog believed his powers to be magic, while the princess suggest that it's actually just a mutation. neither of these are true, what actually happened was that his dad got infected with alien eggs and gave birth to him out of his head which makes him half alien half dog and thats where the powers come from. this isnt revealed until way later on and his alien dad eventually comes back into the fold to give him an identity crisis.
the princess made out of candy actually is sort of a mutant. she was born from a giant mutated wad of gum called the "mother gum"- it came into creation during the war from the radiation and such. its a bunch of separate sentient wads of gum all attached to each other, PB just ended up being the first one to drop off from it and gain independence (along with her brother neddy). she eventually grew to be more humanoid, and as a little girl she began to crave community and family (like how things were with everyone in the mother gum). she's also a genius who loves to play god, so she decided to just Make Her Own Family by frankensteining some other wads of gum. she lived happily and created a small community with them, though they eventually decided to try to overthrow her (keep in mind, she was still a little girl) by basically drugging her with "dumb dumb juice" which would make her more subservient. it didnt work. instead they got dosed with it, and got turned into different types of candy. they became the first citizens of her kingdom. from that point on as she "grew up" (loose term bc shes functionally immortal) she would grow her kingdom too. she would be absolutely ruthless about this of course. like a true mad scientist, she doesnt care about ethics, she cares about results. she would do anything it takes to keep her kingdom safe. including war crimes. no, im dead serious, she's violated the geneva convention sooo much. she spies on not only her citizens, but other kingdoms too, and will absolutely resort to sabotage. she's obsessed with keeping order and control. so she keeps her citizens (life that she created) intentionally dumb too. she creates life as science experiments and then discards it (goliad, lemongrab, etc.). characters will straight up call her a dictator. shes NOT a good person but shes quirky about it i guess. shes not morally gray shes morally pink
Did you guys know that the most recent version of sharks have fins that are kinda leg like and they like to walk up onto land?
no way i must have missed an update!
The Epaulette shark is only about 9 million years old as a species, making it the most recent branch in the shark family. And it is slowly but surely evolving into a land animal
You know what to do boys

I do love the phrase executive dysfunction bc the image it conjures is of a bunch of people wearing business suits around a long oval conference table arguing with each other to the point where they’re getting into physical fights, but in the background there’s just a big empty whiteboard with a To Do list with one item on it and that item is “take shower”
“Hot and bothered” in the sense that it is 90 degrees out and I am extremely annoyed
Has to be one of the best passages of a book I’ve read in a long time
it’s not an understatement to say I think about this all the time
So apparently, if you sign up for Threads and later decide to delete it, it will also nuke your Instagram account.

Think carefully before creating a Threads account (or anywhere else, really).
Anonymous asked:
Hi Zoey. Asking from a place of ignorance, could you please explain why Threads is dogshit?
Threads is the Hot New Garbagedump by Certified Scum Of The Earth and Facebook/Meta owner Zuckerburg. It is like if twitter was even worse.
There is ONLY a For You page, meaning you can never just see the posts from your followed accounts who, yknow, you followed for the purpose of seeing their posts.You can't see those. you have to see the algorithm's posts ONLY. You also require an instagram to get full access to all the features like Posting Images. You need a separate social media account to properly access this new social media. And once you've done so, the only way to delete your Threads account, is to delete you instagram account. The Whole Thing. For Some Fucking Reason. Not to mention, obviously since it's zuckerburg, the thing syphons your personal information like crazy, worse still than twitter.
Like ALL your data. as much as it can get. (Love that it says "Other Data" btw. Nice subtle way of saying "whatever else we want") ALSO wouldn't you know it? It's fucking banned in the EU because it violates a bunch of fucking privacy laws!! So it's DEFINITELY not safe to use!
It is as predatory and exploitative as can be, created by someone that we collectively agreed Sucks Shit and Has No Empathy For Human Life and Individuality, and nobody should be touching it with a ten foot pole let alone sign up for it. Not even to test the waters or because it's where everyone is heading, or to see how bad it is for yourself. It doesn't matter if you're joining to get an account ready in case the platform ends up the new big thing. You're feeding the statistics. Even if you're not using that account, Zuckerburg can show the number of signups to shareholders and investors to prove to them that it's viable. Instead of jumping on the bandwagon in case it succeeds, inform people why they shouldn't join, to reduce its chance of success! It's like strikes and protests; The more of us get the word out, the more effective it'll be!
Please do your research and don’t blindly follow trends.
Damn girl, go for the jugular

so you’re telling me that “stuck a feather in his hat and called it macaroni” would be like saying “wrote a G on his belt and called it gucci”
that’s…a pretty good analogy actually
US moron came to town
Hunting for some coochie
Wrote a G up on his belt
And this bitch called it Gucci
Seeing my notifications get flooded with this every July 4th is the only thing I respect about America
