romance languages really went off with their suffixing systems

#The suffix for things that are small the suffix for things that are small in vibes but might not actually be small the suffix for things w #We dislike but in a friendly way the suffix for things we actually do hate the suffix for getting hit with something etc #They’re a really interesting example of an internal system that can often be traced right back to Latin #That at the same time has a lot of productive innovation in how people continuously create new words with suffixing that are often highly #Local and specific

BDS has updated their calls for consumer boycotts to include: Chevron (and Texaco and Caltex by extension). Here is their most current boycott list.

They have also officially called for a boycott of McDonald’s. Here is their Instagram post on McDonald’s.

#Chevron was previously on the divestment list #also I believe BDS can have local chapters to check to see if your community has specific calls #and have chapters in other countries

OK I saw a poll about something similar and now I am curious

-Assume it's a celebrity you like and that they haven't made a statement about this sort of thing.

-The celebrity in question is just casually out and about, they are not part of an event or panel.

-By "go up to them" I mean saying hello or asking for a picture

-If you have to talk to them as part of your job it doesn't count unless you also ask for something similar to the above.

-This is a judgement free zone, there is no correct answer I am just curious.

Inspired by this poll

#poll #polls #tumblr polls #i was considering making it more specific but i might do that in a follow up poll depending on the results #for me no i have never felt the need to #i have chatted with at least one local celebrity but i don't count it because it came up organically and i hadn't recognised her at first #it was more like a friend of a friend thing

I love the college of winterhold. everyone there is casually deranged and there's like an alarming number of students and staff who threaten you immediately when they meet you. it's always one of the first questlines I do. which makes it even funnier when you get made the arch-mage of the college. I'm level 12 and got through this questline knowing exactly 3 spells. what do you mean you want me to lead the college. this school CANNOT be an accredited institution

#i ask if anyone wants this job and everyone starts whistling and checking their phones #their magic phones. theyre scrolls #mia.txt #tes #skyrim #oh no wait i forgot j'zargo wants the position & actively tries to kill you (these are separate events but still probably not unrelated)#and nirya's gunning for it too. you know what maybe its a good thing im the archmage because im never there and don't do anything #i drop in every few weeks for 10 minutes then leave. the place pretty much runs itself right #reddit says “they have a bullying problem” yeah i know i married him #and he's the new boss' special little princess and he can do whatever he wants forever. call the police about it #dont bring your piddly ass problems to the archmage shes busy girlbossing (committing widescale atrocities)#(yes i know this is just how tamrielic mage guilds are but i just think its funny bc everyone fucking hates them specifically #like the rest of the town despises them and allegedly the nords have a special disdain for magic so its kind of funny that they make no #attempt to like. be more normal to gain the locals' trust #and you know what? good for them. fuck them nords)#ulothir #<- mentioned in the tags lmfao

apparently pjotv twt was being weird about book!Percy's eyes being green because they don't think the ocean can be green (???) so consider this a sequel to my Grace siblings eye colors post and here is some visual references of green water for all your Percy inspo needs:

And for reference, the water around New York-ish where Percy is usually is somewhere around this color:

or some alternatives:

or here is a nice hazel green if you want his eyes more on the brown side, which is very common in freshwater ponds and streams:

or if you want him to have totally brown eyes - water rich in tannins will appear brown, greenish-brown, or very dark brown - this is sometimes called "blackwater" due to often appearing very dark or having low visibility:

#pjo #percy jackson #riordanverse #i am eternally amused by old pjo fandom's tendency to interpret ''sea-green'' as ''tropical seas / neon aqua''#mostly just cause as someone who grew up around boats when i think of ''sea-green'' i have a very particular color in mind #and its that kind of murky desaturated green #like sometimes ur at the docks and are just shoving your hand into low visibility green water to catch jellyfish yknow #thats the vibe. thats what i think of whenever i hear ''sea-green''#reach into your local harbor and you may find a friend and a boy (jellyfish)#and i respect not everybody is as familiar with the ocean but ''Percy's eyes being blue is *better* because the ocean is blue not green!''#is. just a ridiculous statement to me.#like. just. first and foremost. claiming blue eyes are ''better'' and the implications in that (bleugh)#secondly - claiming that ''the ocean isnt GREEN'' is just. well you're just wrong so jot that down #it is in fact not uncommon for the ocean to be green. this is very normal actually #the ocean not always being blue does not feel like particularly groundbreaking news????#like gonna be real my guy usually the ocean is actually pretty. idk. greyish.#especially if its not actively a very sunny day in the summer #cause a lot of the time if the water is just reflecting the sky and is not being particularly affected by whatever is actually in the water #then. well. the sky is usually greyish! on your average day the sky is usually kinda grey! it usually only gets really blue when its sunny #but usually water has. yknow. stuff in it. a lot of the time algae and such. so it ends up murkier/greenish #anyways this has been: AALV's oddly specific nitpicking about Percy's eye color

💙❤️Happy Holidays!❤️💙

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #lan wangji #wei wuxian #This is *specifically* fanart of the interfaith christmas cards featuring santa and his jewish rabbi husband spending time together #Why? Well as I was trying to think of things to draw for the season I realized there was another classic Blue and Red pairing to reference #They are going out for chinese food after this photoshoot. Kosher of course.#I want them to star in an interfaith hallmark film. A meet cute + save christmas + murder mystery in a small town kind of story #Or! Maybe they are just going to have a chill holiday break together and bake some treats with the extended family #So many fun possibilities about this bonkers concept I have no intention of making a bigger deal out of #speaking of Big Deals though;#If you have ever wanted to show appreciation for this (free) daily comics blog then I have one Holiday request:#If you have the means to - please donate your money to either a local food bank or a Yemen relief fund #there are so many people going without food and every bit helps. Truly would be the best holiday treat ever #and if you do not celebrate this holiday season…it’s also my birthday! You wouldnt want to let down the birthday cat would you?#(DISCLAIMER: it may or may not actually be my birthday. I may just be pressing emotional buttons to influence people to my cause)#(DISCLAIMER 2: I cannot vouch for any charities you donate to. Please be cautious and research properly before donating)

Y'know, I want a superbat story from an outsider's pov of someone having a visceral realization at like 3am that it's like birds. Brightly colored bird- or alien in this case- showing off and trying to impress potential mate- in this case cryptid bat thing- who is much duller in color but way more likely to straight up fight something.

#superbat #prompts #superbattinson #batman au #dcu #dc #cryptid batman #superman #clark kent #batman #bruce wayne #It even works with the batfam members lmao #majority of the guys are brightly colored and majority of the girls aren't #Local rainbow cryptid obsessed with his goth boyfriend #battinson #is specifically who I am thinking of but it can be any batman lol

decimus wanted to wind cassius up a bit just to see how he would snap

uhhh. what else. you know!! caesar was collecting (and discarding) a new generation of romans, operating a new kind of roman imperium. political manipulation. "good" governance. conspiracies are forming in reply.

the collage art is all public domain/open access stuff from the met collections!

#okay now that we're in the tags. kabayan: this comic is actually about how fucking pissed i am over the bahay #pangulo renovations lmao like not only are you robbing the people blind but you're also TAKING AMORSOLO PAINTINGS #heugh. summoning circle to set cassius' ghost loose in malacañang palace #ANYWAY i saw someone on twitter go 'haven't they earned a little luxury?' and i saw someone snap back with the 'i didnt know na monarchy #na pala ang pilipinas' reply i borrowed for a closing wham line #but MY GOD. 'earn a little luxury' flames. on the side of my face. again! SUMMONING CIRCLE FOR CASSIUS' GHOST #just set him loose! they havent earned ANYTHING. awful bastard family from hell. rot all the way down. BGLGHGHGH #roman republic tag #komiks tag #oh what else. uh. OH! i went to an art museum over on (redacted) and saw some incredible paintings from a local artist #and that's what got me doing the collage stuff. in the top half specifically. it's not quite what i wanted it to be but im learning #connecting the visual dots

Maybe it is my bi aroace brain playing tricks on me but I find it so hard to grasp the concept of only liking “one gender”. What do you mean I have to pick? What do you mean by “gender”? Is it edible?

#Especially in fiction #Also I feel really weirded out by only thinking that people perceive me as a specific gender #Your local nonbinary fella is uncomfortable #bisexual #asexual #bi #ace #nonbinary #lgbt #lgbtq #lgbtqia #enby #leite talks #queer #aro #aromantic
