I wanna preface this with saying I've never been in law school-

I know those guys signed waivers that mentioned they could die 3 time in it- BUT- I am curious about exactly what the waivers explained... because I highly doubt that it mentioned anything about how Rush did everything he could to avoid insuring this vessel was 100% certified safe. I'm sure they left out the crucial details of Rush firing his safety regulations guy after he brought up that the submersible was unsafe and I wonder if they mentioned the actual capacity of the ship's pressure limit. With all the details about how this thing was an unregulated death trap I wonder if the company could actually face legal trouble now...

The Tortured Poets Department is the single most ironic name Taylor Swift could have chosen for her album. Can you be a "tortured poet" or a "starving artist" while simultaneously threatening legal action against the person tracking the constant movement and carbon emissions of your multiple private jets? Is that torture to you, Taylor?

Not gonna lie, I don't know if I have the knowledge to say "this is ableist" or whatever but the more I think on it the less I like the "is X in the room with us right now" meme because like. I dunno doesn't it just kind of seem like the butt of the joke is people who experience delusions or hallucinations?

I don't want to come across as preachy, because the obvious meaning is "X is not real", but in conveying that it puts the joke's recipient in the role of someone experiencing a delusion or hallucination. "X isn't real and you're crazy", yeah? And while it's not overly saying, like, "it's bad to experience delusions or hallucinations", it ultimately does draw on that comparison, and puts someone being mocked or shamed in that role.

It's bad to use gay as an insult because you're saying "you're gay, which is a bad thing", and this isn't doing that; but it's saying "you're imagining things, like a delusional person." Is it that big of a difference? I don't know, and I can't say, but it doesn't sit well with me.

Veronika I'm telling you your TwelveClara posts and tags recently have been making me INCREDIBLY insane in a way I can't quite explain. he was falling in love with her as Eleven... y eah 😭

omg i remember watching the snowmen LIVE and instantly falling in love with clara and matt and jenna's chemistry. it made me feel something for the show i hadn't felt in a while and at the time since i was a doctor/rose blog i made a WHOLE SIDEBLOG about them so trust me, i adore them sm!! twelveclara make me nuts but it all starts with elevenclara. i'm probably gonna post some more sets of them over on timelordgifs later <3

sorry but like the whole warrior cat community saw spottedthistle and went "this is unacceptable especially for this book series about minors" and then went and made amvs/pmvs and art about it the same way they do everything else in the series and it feels inappropriate

funniest news blurb i've ever seen actually. "there was a plot to kill trump last weekend. no not that one. totally different one. we figured out about it beforehand though so we heightened security at the rally. yeah that rally. yeah the one where-- yeah. yeah that one."

[lazaruspiss]

People know that the whole "don't portray [harmful action] because viewers might recreate it" thing is a rule for children's shows right? It's supposed to be shit like "don't show peppa pig playing with fire so we don't get sued if a kid watches it and burns their house down." Not like, fanfiction for adults.

Edit: this was me venting about fandom cops. not me making some nuanced hot take. don't be weird in my comments.

Edit 2: turning off notifications. PSA: do not use pet names for strangers, especially not without asking. it's creepy.

had never heard of "mlp infection aus" until this month and ngl i still dont know what they are but. it made me want to draw some of them getting taken over by their cutie marks or something......

please speak about palestine

Alright. There are a lot of politics surrounding this event, so much random bullshit that tries to obfuscate the simple fact that what is happening in Palestine is vile, and plainly wrong. When deciding whether or not you should step in and help, you must remind yourself that this isn't about the ''politics'' of the situation, this isn't about the bullshit arguing we make for 'both sides' whilst we sit safely within the confines of our homes - this is about humanity - Don't let people confuse you, or downplay the terrible acts that are happening. See your fellow person in trouble and help them when they're suffering, it's as simple as that.

Imagine how easy it is to spend $20 bucks on a subway sandwich and a side of chips, so instead of doing that, spend the equivalent helping people not die (or do even more!). I suggest you all spend some time donating, sharing with others and helping out where you can <3

in this house we love the artists and engineers and actors who worked on arcane so much that we will not share the leaks

remember that the people who really suffer from leaks are regular people like you and me who worked hard for weeks, months, and years to make this show a reality

[wingwaver]

I highly doubt those guys are still alive down there but I do hope they manage to find the submersible just to give the families closure

I'm not sure how much of it was intentional, but I'm still very amused by TLOVM including a red dragonborn mage from Draconia whose main problems are:

She resents Kima and Allura being together, because she wanted a relationship with one of them

She felt entitled to the spotlight and couldn't stand it when her party members got it instead

She failed to communicate effectively with any of her friends

And then Vorugal stomps her to death with his talons.

Desertduo fanon #3: "The Bed"

Absolutely CLASSIC trope lol! There really is 'only one bed' in every fandom, huh? Anyway this is how I think it would play out!
