That just seems to be a common problem with science fiction I fear.

-person who watched the doctor give an emotional speech on the inherent evil of war in the same episode where giant red things with suckers were running around. Yay zygons

Watching Star Wars was a mistake. For years I’ve derived so much pleasure from seeing discourse on my timeline that’s like “it’s actually a pretty good writing choice that Glimbo Knutts manipulated the imbledimbians in the force to make Darth Freeble his personal jedi froogler. It gives the original trilogy more depth” and not knowing what the fuck anybody is talking about. But now I do and it’s ruined. I understand what you freak ass dorks are saying and it isn’t fun anymore. Glimbo Knutts making Darth Freeble his jedi froogler DOES give the original trilogy more depth. This sucks man

you all are saying that watson is not "just a normal guy" in the slightest and his levels of romanticism and drama are insane and he fell in love with their client from the first sight and literally married that woman after knowing her for a few days

this is all very correct and true but consider

these feelings are very mutual and mary morstan wholeheartedly agreed to marry watson after knowing him for a few days she IS on the same level of insane romanticism as him

there is some truth to the idea that people get more conservative as they get older/more financially secure however one thing you realize as you get older is that you are never going to fix everything and you have to carve out a happy life for yourself anyway. and that can look like willful ignorance and burying your head in the sand but it's not it's actually vital for survival to find yourself some stability and comfort

A Lakeland woman was charged Tuesday after police said she ended a call to an insurance company with the words, “Delay, Deny, Depose.” [...] “She’s been in this world long enough that she certainly should know better that you can’t make threats like that in the current environment that we live in and think that we’re not going to follow up and put you in jail,” said Lakeland Police Chief Sam Taylor. [...] However, Boston added that she does not own any firearms and “was not a danger to anyone,” police said.

[...]

Boston was charged with threats to conduct a mass shooting or an act of terrorism, according to the affidavit. “My client is 42, married mother of three. Never had any criminal charges or convictions. May you release her on her own recognizance,” her attorney Jim Headley said to a judge during her first appearance in court. However, the judge set her bond at $100,000, stating, “I do find that the bond of $100,000 is appropriate considering the status of our country at this point.”

Abolish the judiciary

I rushed these earlier this year to print some stickers in answer to a clown that was running for president in my country.

[ID: two digital drawings with the motto "Protect trans kids", both colored with colors from the trans flag. The first one is a hyena turning their head and growling, below them, a hyena pup lies huddled down. The second one has a stag jumping over two fawns, one mainly pink and the other one mainly blue, the stag has lowered their head and points their antlers forward in a defensive pose. End ID]

What veganism did for me was bring up all the issues I had with society in the first place.

Why ARE some still treated like less-than than others for being different? Why are we taught not to care? What if it was me in their place? Why should I be in the privileged position and not them? What makes humans so special?

So now when I have found my voice you better believe I'm gonna speak out.

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL): "How many athletes are there in the U.S. in NCAA schools?" NCAA President Charlie Baker: "510,000" Durbin: "How many transgender athletes are you aware of?" Baker: "Less than 10."

so glad we've laser focused our national conversation on this burning issue of... less than 10 people....

"If I can do it, so can everyone else! :D" Not how reality works. We're not the same person with the same abilities, resources and circumstances.
