flashback to when MLK Jr said the worst group in the US for black rights wasn't the lawmakers passing Jim Crow laws or the KKK but the white moderate. That it was the white moderate who was forcing the country to find a middle ground between civil rights and genocide which allowed the continued systematic mistreatment of the African American community

The evil opposite of folks bending over backwards to declare that Taylor Swift is secretly gay or an "honorary lesbian" or whatever in order to justify enjoying her music is folks expressing amazement that this or that obviously straight musical artist could produce work that's so resonant with the LGBT experience, and then you look up the "obviously straight" artist in question and they're openly bisexual.

my mom at dinner, with no warning or conversational segue: so who do you think killed that hoffa fella?

I don't know mom. Mostly because I'm not an FBI agent from the 50s.

someone tagged multiple drawings of mine ft fat characters as “tw body image” i am entitled to compensation and im stealing shit out of your house right now

idk man what people ask you to tag on this website is not sacred and you should. employ critical thinking. like if someones asking for a trigger warning for an entire category of human being thats a nut up or shut up issue for them

deliberately forging a long distance polycule such that each member is situated at the point of a pentagram around the united states and when we charge our JO crystals at the same time all walmart supercenters are replaced by affordable housing

“We cut a trough into the set, and we put a piece of rigging that goes under the set and into the mother’s stomach. It’s a little creepy, I know. But it allows us to slide her along the surface of the sand, and every time she reaches out and claws into the sand, that’s all a plasticine or clay surface that we have to carve into and move a frame at a time. We’d have little bits of sand that were flying up in the air, so we take these little bits of foam or clay, we put them on bug pins or wires or little bits of fishing line, and we have those elevated and move them a frame at a time to make it look like it’s bursting out of the ground.” - Travis Knight

And it all happens so naturally that you never question how it could happen

I’ve never seen the piece of media this is from, but I’m blown away. Even beyond that bit of technical wonder, just how expressive the doll is. The anguish and pain shows so clearly, without being almost comical. A lot of stop animation (even ones I love!) rely so heavily on sound to make the scenes emotionally charged.

this is from Kubo and the Two Strings and the whole film is this stunning

Kubo and the Two Strings is a criminally underrated masterpiece, the uncontested best animated film of 2016 and probably the decade, and is available on Netflix.  Please do yourself a favor and watch this movie it is so beautiful and so, so good.  You are guaranteed to cry.  Everything about this movie was perfect.  This is a ten star movie on a four star scale.

PLEASE WATCH KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS.

Warning: this movie will make you cry. Like a lot.
