It really is one of the most gut-wrenching feelings to realize you'd do anything, anything, anything for just a little bit longer with someone. But it's too late. The moment's passed, and if you're lucky you get to say goodbye.

Playing the first/second case vs. the fourth/fifth case in an Ace Attorney case.

The way tiktok has absolutely ruined crediting culture in videos/edits by normalising not crediting artists when you use their work in videos or edits.... The way tiktok has made editing a speed competition where you pump out the most basic edits possible as fast as possible without bothering to find the artist of that art you found on google images.... The way I've had to ask fellow ARTIST friends to please credit the artists whose works they used in their edits..... It's ridiculous. If you use someone's art in your edits, collages, videos, compilations, WHATEVER, you credit them. Doesn't matter how quick their art flashed or if you only used one image, you credit the artist. But most importantly you ask PERMISSION to use their art FIRST. and if you don't have permission, you do not use their art, even if you credit them.

5x07 is a banger of an episode on every account, but i think it was a mistake to not include

Has anyone else read "What We Found in the Sofa and How It Saved the World" by Henry Clark?

It's kind of like MBS in that a group of kids who are basically alone have to avert world domination from an organization that uses cell phones (among other tactics) to affect people's minds and is capable of erasing memories (Although there's no recovering from it) and the big bad guy has a crack team of violent henchmen with silly names and a familial connection to the eccentric man who recruits the kids

But other than that it's nothing like MBS and is absolutely off the walls bonkers insane

And I love it

I cannot believe we live in a world where somebody got away with this naming convention

One of the weirdest flavors of rude customer interactions you can have is when there's the customer who's just an absolute ass from the moment they walk in, snapping at every turn, getting huffy and rolling their eyes all dramatically when you ask them to repeat something, or ask a very normal question that you need an answer to before you can help them any further ("And what's the address you'd like to have this delivered to?" for example). And there's also the person they walked in with, usually a spouse or otherwise significant other, and you're a little wary of them, too, at first, 'cause you're not sure if they're both grouches or not, because the first one is doing most of the talking. But then you see them react to their partner's bitchiness, and for a moment, you wonder if you should feel sorry for them, having to live with this person. But then eventually, the first person sighs a little, and apologizes to their partner, and explains that they're just hungry, or stressed, or tired, or whatever, and the partner says something soft and reassuring in return—and no one says jack shit to you, the person the majority and the worst of the bitchy attitude has been unleashed on. They'll apologize to their partner right in front of you for treating them not half as bad as they've been treating you, but there's no apology directed at you, not even a sidelong glance your way as they're apologizing to their partner, not even their partner apologizing on their behalf—not even a slight improvement in the way they treat you afterward. They're both clearly capable of recognizing this behavior as inappropriate, they just don't give a damn how it may make you feel, because servers and cashiers and all manner of other customer service workers just aren't people, apparently.

I just right now realized you can pretty much sum up what me and my husband are like on the inside based on which one of Brendan Fraser's films is our fave

Him: George of the Jungle

Me: Monkeybone

And if you don't know Monkeybone maybe... Leave it alone. I've watched it too many times during my formative years and it did something to my brain.

(yes we both love the Mummy too come on)

Imagine being told that the demand for your tour would require you to play a stadium show every day for 2.5 years - does that make you feel proud or profoundly anxious!!?

It's a unique type of frustration when you agree that a character is deeply flawed but other people keep missing what's actually wrong with them and assigning them new flaws that they don't even have it's like free my man he did none of that. He did a bunch of other shit tho.

does throwing a stone at a tank

make a child a terrorist?

is terrorism about resisting oppression? is terrorism about demanding your birthright to live safely and peacefully in your homeland? is terrorism about hating the killers of your family, your friends and your people?

accusations of terrorism are often weaponized against those fighting for liberation and sovereignty and dignity. the french settlers called the algerians terrorists. the indian government calls the kashmiris terrorists. the pakistani army calls pashtun activists terrorists. the turkish government calls the kurds terrorists. apartheid south africa called nelson mandela a terrorist. americans called the vietcong and the black panthers terrorists. the israelis call the palestinians terrorists. all oppressive regimes are connected. all oppressed people are connected. injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

PSA: i keep seeing posts about staying cool in extreme heat that include advice like "gatorade is bad actually!" and "don't drink fruit juice it'll just dehydrate you!" and neither of these are true!

regarding fruit juice: there's apparently a misconception that Any Sugar At All will dehydrate you, and that's simply not true. yes, sugar will make you pee more when consumed in large amounts, but 1) the natural sugar in fruits won't do this to you 2) great news! a lot of fruit juices exist without any added sugar in them! 3) honestly even having a glass of the fruit juice with added sugar won't completely dehydrate you as long as you're also drinking water throughout the day. if its hot you deserve a cold treat of a drink!!! can't go wrong with fruit juice!!!

regarding gatorade: maybe this isn't an every day drink, but guess what: if it's 110F/40C or hotter outside, and you don't have AC, or you're moving around a lot outside of the AC, and you're sweating buckets: that's when you drink a gatorade.

gatorade exists to replenish all the electrolytes (salt) and glucose (sugar) that you sweat out. YES it is meant for athletes to drink during intensive work outs and not necessarily for people who aren't doing that kind of exercise. BUT GUESS WHAT! when you're sweating buckets because you had to walk to the bus in extreme heat, that's intensive exercise. please feel free to drink a gatorade after that! that's its intended use case!!!!

no: neither of these drinks should be a total replacement for water. but drinking a lot of water and then treating yourself to a fruit juice with lunch is a good idea!!! drinking a gatorade becuase you just had to walk for 20 minutes in the heat is a good idea!!!

Please Stop Spreading Misinformation About Drinks!!! It's fine if you drink things that aren't water!!!! Yes you should probably always be drinking water but drinking something else As Well isn't going to hurt you!!!! okay!!!! its fine!!!!!!

honestly so long as you are consistently getting Any (non-alcoholic) fluids in you, you're doing great!!!!!! okay!!!! i love you stay safe <3

Gold star ⭐ to everyone who made it to the end of this crazy weekend

[mahoushojoe]

we cannot let the people saying "legal child-killing" rejoin society without repercussions. this is depraved. i don't want to share a society with you people. the idea of it repulses me. you people deserve nothing less than ostracization and the end of your platforms and careers.
