Rules: shuffle your ‘on repeat’ playlist and post the first ten tracks, then tag ten people 🎶

Thank you @decepticon-nerd for tagging me in this. Maybe.

Lowlife - Theory of a Deadman [youtube]

Oh god why did this have to be the first song to come up I swear most of my music taste isn't like this

Bad Romance - Lady Gaga [youtube]

My dad got a Lady Gaga CD for Father's Day or his birthday once and I was allowed to listen to it and this was on it.

Believer - Imagine Dragons [youtube]

I think someone once described TFP as the Imagine Dragons of Transformers and I still have no idea what it means. Good song tho

Again - Crusher-P [youtube]

I don't have a ton of voice-synthesizer music downloaded, I'm surprised one showed up. No idea when I first listened to this

Dancing Dead - Romanticide [youtube]

I must have found this on some Spotify playlist. Idk what genre this falls into tbh

Nook, Line & Sinker - The Stupendium [youtube]

The Stupendium is great and I've enjoyed the Animal Crossing games I've played. This song has good wordplay, like most of his songs, and also uses the clinking of coins as part of the instrumental

Villain - Wild Fire [youtube]

I found this song through a fantastic Last Life animatic

The House Always Wins - The Stupendium [youtube]

I have the original and he might have remastered it by now? I'm not super familiar with Fallout so some of the wordplay goes over my head but I still love it

The City is at War - Cobra Starship [youtube]

Also a Spotify find. Not much I have to say here

Let's Not Talk About That - Whitney Avalon ft. Jordan Maron [youtube]

CaptainSparkles wears jeans and talks about politics. The music is really fun, the chorus is good, and I didn't even realize the first few times that Jordan's parts were rhymed, it's really impressive

Tags: @voids-ocean @gamercock @theramblingvoid @the-lying-gods-are-dead and whoever else wants to do this

Thank you random Tumblr mutual I love talking about myself :)

NEW CHALLENGE

1. FIRST, create a picrew using this maker, and then 2. SECOND take this quiz on how fandom would see you if you were a fictional character.  3 (THIRD) POST YOUR PIC AND YOUR DESCRIPTION IN THE REBLOG!

Bastard (Good)

You’re a bastard. A wet cat, if you will. And we love you for it. You’re a little shit, but in the good way. You are the baddest babygirl. You killed a man, but you looked good doing it. You flirted with the hero and the enemy. All of Tumblr is madly in love with you. Congrats, I guess?

ty for the tag @que3rduckling!!!

Should Be In A Different Genre

You’re a good character, you should just be somewhere else. You’re too serious, or funny, or kind, or mean, or ruthless, or lenient. You were truly born in the wrong universe. You would do so well, if it weren’t for the genre.

open tag!!!

Should Have Been A Villain

You’re a good guy, but you shouldn’t have been. Your appearance, your skillset, your backstory, it would have been perfect. But no, they had to make you a hero. I guess you were just too good to be true. You will always be a villain in our hearts.

open tag!!!

Deserves The World

You’re the baby. The little meow meow. The ultimate cinnamon roll. Everyone loves you, you’d have to be insane not to. All you want is for your friends to be happy, and you will do anything to make that a reality. You truly deserve everything. Anything I can get you, by the way?

The Weird One

You’re the weird one, the one that half of tumblr babygirls and all of twitter is slightly scared of. You’re probably autism-coded, and you probably also know some vital information that you shouldn’t, for some reason.

Tragic

You’re the sympathetic villain who does not-quite-bad-enough-stuff-to-be-hated for a very good reason. And you’re redeemed by dying. Everyone’s angry about it, you could have had an amazing redemption arc if you lived.

golly gosh i guess i’m dead

Tags (feel free to skip if you don’t wanna do it!)

Lovable Puppy.

I find it funny that this is the result I got because I never make angels or use pastel pink or purple

Answer Unclear

Oh, you. No-one can figure you out. Some people love you, some people hate you, some people just don’t care. You’re hot, but also ugly, but also bland. You’re funny, but also serious, but also a kind of weird grey zone. Honestly, keep doing what you’re doing. It’s pretty cool, in my option. Though a lot of my friends would disagree.

Cool I guess

Thank you for always tagging me ily ❤️❤️❤️ @riaxaraco @/dean what's your Tumblr I forgor

We stan!!!!

chaotic good

There’s a happy ending to, because the robbery was unsuccessful, the couple ended up getting the money Eden needed from a movie inspired by em! Also John only had to serve part of his sentence. Check out their wedding photos btw they’re beautiful.

reblogging because I’ve seen this post a thousand times and I’ve never seen the happy ending!! 

Everyone go watch Dog Day Afternoon please please please it’s the movie mentioned in this thread it’s Sidney Lumet’s best imo and Al Pacino plays John and he is heartbreakingly good in it.

Sorry to say, but they do the exact same thing for humans too.

It’s amazing how people in the notes and comments are absolutely FURIOUS at me for the included Frozen comparison. Special shout out to everyone trying to prove that real people look like this.

Not to mention that when people edit these characters to have better facial proportions, the originals look like bizarre fish people.

How humans draw themselves is always fascinating to me

op why are you speaking like you aren’t human i’m scared

Eh…perhaps read my blog description.

this post has EVERYTHING

I think I know the reason for why people prefer “unrealistic” animation.

For some reason, humans really don’t like things that look like humans but aren’t quite human. Hence why a lot of people are uncomfortable with movies with animation like Monster House and The Polar Express. It looks too realistic to us and sets us off.

Scientists call this the “Uncanny Valley” effect and its thought to be an evolutionary tactic for survival.

The funny part is. No other animals that we know of experience the uncanny valley effect. Only humans. Which leaves the question: what was out there that mimicked humans so well and was so dangerous to us that we evolved to have this as a tactic for survival?

Oh hell yeah this is what I’m here for

Okay, I’ve seen this thread a dozen times before, but not with this addendum.

i made the original post in the throes of unmedicated depression because that’s where my sense of humor was at the time. i don’t check my activity page. seeing it barge onto my dash months later with +250k notes and this exchange attached to it like a bunch of rattling tin cans attached to the tail of a rabid dog running loose is fucking WILD

So sometime after whenever humans developed the uncanny valley effect, did we just hunt this mysterious predator to extinction? Or did it die out on it’s own? Or did it evolve as well into something… else? Could it still be living on Earth today?

Idk why dont we ask the “people eating cryptid” who claims to be from a species that’s easy to hide and apparently passes as human who’s like, 3 reblogs above this?

Hey fun fact;

Back when Homo sapiens weren’t the end-all of hominids, we also had some other two legged “humanish” cousins like the Neanderthals, Denisovians, and more!

There were nine different species of “humans”

By 10,000 years ago, they were all gone. The disappearance of these other species resembles a mass extinction. But there’s no obvious environmental catastrophe – volcanic eruptions, climate change, asteroid impact – driving it.

Instead, the extinctions’ timing suggests they were caused by the spread of a new species, evolving 260,000-350,000 years ago in Southern Africa: Homo sapiens.

Neanderthal skeletons show patterns of trauma consistent with warfare.

Like language or tool use, a capacity for and tendency to engage in genocide is arguably an intrinsic, instinctive part of human nature.

Optimists have painted early hunter-gatherers as peaceful, noble savages, and have argued that our culture, not our nature, creates violence. But field studies, historical accounts, and archaeology all show that war in primitive cultures was intense, pervasive and lethal.

Basically: the reason we as Homo Sapians find other human-ish figures unsettling and have an instinctual fear/aggression response called “The Uncanny Valley” is because we literally TOOK OVER THE WORLD by hunting down and killing every other hominid on the planet.

Dunno if the “9 species of hominid genocide” was a result of uncanny valley or the cause of it, but it’s a pretty sure bet to guess they’re linked.

This is a wonderful post.

i love seeing this after also having fully read and comprehended the rabies post

I was wondering when rabies was going to get brought into this

The Outbursts of Everett True was a comic strip that ran in papers from 1905 to 1927, wherein the aforementioned Everett True regularly beat the everliving shit out of rude people as a warning to anyone else who might consider being rude. Men have not only been taking up too much room on public transport for about as long as public transport has existed, but the people around them have been irritated about it for at least a hundred years. The next time someone tries to claim that manspreading is a false phenomenon, please direct them to this strip so that Everett True can correct their misconceptions with an umbrella upside the head.

I have never before heard of Everett True, but if he “regularly beat the everliving shit out of rude people as a warning to anyone else who might consider being rude,” I have a strong spiritual connection with him.

I fucking love him

i can imagine this guy’s voice very clearly in my head but i couldn’t put a name to it 

He also jabs racists in the eye!

I love the justice grandpa of fists

I’m very lucky to own a book that’s a collection of most of these comics (sadly not all of them) and would highly recommend hunting these down if you can. Sorry for the lack of a scanner but phone photos will just have to do.

He was a enjoyable cuss who didn’t care for war mongering.

Especially profitable war mongering and excuses for it!

He certainly didn’t like selfish husbands and fathers!

Politicians who turned on their words once they got theirs weren’t safe.

He said fuck the police!

He absolutely didn’t like people ruining little things for kids.

He stood up for foreigners. Especially those doing their best to communicate with limited second language knowledge.

He was not having any tomfoolery when it came to gun safety and laws. Especially with youth involved.

You had better not abuse a animal with him nearby. He’d right that wrong real quick!

And best of all him and his wife were both prickly cusses together. Relationship goals.

I have a new role model

😍

“justice grandpa of fists”

It’s nice to see a fat dude in a political cartoon that’s NOT being used as shorthand for greed and corruption.

Hes like the personification of motherfucker unlimited

Reblogging this newer version of this thread with so many more strips I haven’t seen…why did this character ever disappear. Where did you go, Everett.

we need him more than ever…

sorry to make a long post longer but I feel like we could all really use some Everett True Beating Up Anti-Maskers content:

He’s a hero, our Everett.
