The Ned Fulmer Cheating Scandal: A Breakdown

There are a lot of people who don’t know what’s happening here or why it’s such a big deal so I thought I’d go ahead and do my best to explain it.

hard right jay

Things that are great about this scene from Letterkenny:

  • The actress is named Kaniehtiio Horn, and she’s Mohawk, grew up on the Kahnawake reservation, which is in Quebec
  • “We don’t practice violence” “We do”

further context for this scene:

  • the local youth soccer team, at the request of the nearby rez, declared they were going to change their name from ’ the chiefs’ to something not racist
  • the rural white community was totally supportive of this
  • ‘hard right jay,’ played by Jewish actor jay baruchel, heard about the change online. he is not a local – he is a neo-nazi from the city
  • he travels to this rural town and approaches the white locals, trying to recruit them into his ‘hard right’ ideology and get them angry about the name change. he assumes this will be easy
  • the white locals are hugely insulted by this, because a) they support the name change and b) they aren’t fucking nazis
  • jay calls in a bunch of nazi out-of-towners to stage this ‘protest.’ none of the hard-right people in his group are locals
  • after watching jay spend the whole episode acting like he’s so Respectable and Reasonable and Intellectual while spouting nazi rhetoric, watching Tanis beat his ass is extremely cathartic

I need y’all to know that Jay Baruchel is the voice of Hiccup in How to Train Your Dragon

also adding that the white locals are the “army” beating the shit out of the nazis in slow motion

NEW LEVERAGE TRAILER DROPPED

July 9th!

In this new iteration and new world, the Leverage crew have watched as the rich and powerful continue to take what they want without consequence. Grifter Sophie Devereaux (Gina Bellman), thief Parker (Beth Riesgraf), hitter Eliot Spencer (Christian Kane), and hacker Alec Hardison (Aldis Hodge) have watched the world change over the last eight years.Since their last job, it’s become easier–and sometimes legal–for the  rich  to  become  richer  and  the  powerful  to  squash anyone  who  gets  in  their  way. To  address  the changes in the world around them, the team finds new blood in Harry Wilson (Noah Wyle), a corporate lawyer who is looking for redemption after realizing he’d been sitting on the wrong side of the table for his entire career, and Breanna Casey (Aleyse Shannon), Hardison’s foster sister who has a knack for computers, robotics, and getting into trouble.

Okay. This seems pretty insane if you don’t know what the existing state of terminally ill patients’ options is. So let’s go over that.

Terminally ill patients can sign up to be part of pre FDA approval trials for treatments which might potentially cure them. As these treatments are experimental, untested, not guaranteed to get results, and intended to provide profit to the medical provider in the long run, patients cannot be charged for these experimental treatments. As it should be. It’d be pretty unethical to get people to pay you to be your guinea pig for treatments which may not even help them.

This “right to try” law changes that. It makes it legal for terminally ill patients to be charged for experimental treatments. Furthermore, it removes FDA testing restrictions from the process. Currently a company which tries an ‘experimental’ treatment they know won’t work will get the hammer dropped on them by the FDA. But under this new process, medical providers would be legally allowed to provide ‘treatments’ they know won’t work, without oversight. This would legalize medical predation on terminally ill patients.

Labeling this bill ‘right to try’ makes it seem like terminally ill patients aren’t allowed to seek out experimental treatments right now. But they are! All this bill does is make a terminally ill patients more financially burdened and more vulnerable to predation.

That’s why the Democrats blocked it.

Thank you for explaining it

Reblogging for EXPLANATION

Yeah… let’s NOT let companies make terminally ill patients pay for “experimental treatments” they already know don’t work…

If your historical fiction thinks that to show your female character is strong and has value she must shed all traces of femininity you might have internalized misogyny check it out

Ok y'all but like I’m not even kidding about this I read this post yesterday and today I got an email from the peeps at hamilton and I won the lotto gor $10 tickets and I would like to give all my thanks to the internet’s favorite fish, Goldie Gurston, for making this possible because I totally believe they did this with their amazing gay powers

So I know this is likely a coincidence…but I reblogged this and just now discovered I’ve been given a $150 amazon gift card as a bonus at work. So thank you, fish!

help I’m having emotions about a cartoon antidepressant trying to be useful

DID YOU GUYS SERIOUSLY GIF AN ABILIFY COMMERCIAL 

Avatar

yes but look at it, it cares about her and just wants to help her be able to function. It’s like “I know you’re sad. here, I’ll help you.”

LIKE OKAY THOUGH can I explain why this is exceedingly brilliant??  Because when anti-depressants work right, that’s what they DO.  They don’t make you happy or emotionless or unhealthy in any way, they make you FUNCTIONAL.  They make it so that a depressed person who can barely get out of bed can start to support themselves again and more importantly, start to THINK for themselves again without the permeating presence of depression.

Depression is a cyclical disease, that tells you to think a certain way, and, because you’re depressed, you generally believe it, and then things get worse and worse.  The ONLY thing anti-depressants do is to STOP that cycle in its tracks!!  Which is something to be ecstatic about and celebrated, even if you don’t realize it at the time, because when you’re depressed, getting out of bed is climbing Mount Everest.  Antidepressants help stop that cycle so that one day soon, getting out of bed can JUST be getting out of bed.  They don’t even expedite the recovery process in most cases, they just make recovery POSSIBLE IN THE FIRST PLACE.  So this little guy is portrayed with a fuckton more accuracy than I ever expected from a commercial.

It’s back and adorable
