🚨 BREAKING:

Slave Trader Oprah Winfrey Facing Life Behind Bars On Child Sex Trafficking Charges

Oprah Winfrey’s reputation has taken a hit due to her close friendships with numerous high-profile rapists and pedophiles, but she is about to lose a whole lot more, according to investigators who revealed the billionaire media tycoon is about to be thrown under the bus and prosecuted on child trafficking charges.

Oprah isn’t the only member of the VIP global elite facing charges. A whole host of household names, including Bill Gates, mainstream media figures, and members of the US House and Senate are currently sweating as the walls close in on them.

According to investigators, Oprah Winfrey has been hiding in plain sight for decades, conspiring with some of the world’s most notorious pedophiles and sex traffickers, and taking every opportunity to legitimize child sexual abuse in public forums.

According to mainstream media, Oprah’s laundry list of pedophile connections is just an unfortunate coincidence. It’s like the extensive list of Clinton associates who wound up dead in bizarre circumstances, often committing suicide by putting two bullet holes in their back of their own head. One coincidence after another.

For decades and decades. After Oprah’s close friend Jerry Harris was sentenced to 12 years in prison on child sex crimes in July, the media fact-checked anybody who dared to point out that he was Oprah’s protégé. This was information they did not want to get out. 🤔

I'm not explaining why re-imagining characters as POC is not the same as white-washing, here of all places should fucking understand.

Does anyone else have "thought layers" where their internal dialog is thinking several things at once?

Like you could be thinking a sentence and another part of you is thinking ahead to the next word before you think it, a third part is running wordless commentary on the first two, while a fourth part is playing a song in the background?

It's the mental equivalent of having several videos open at the same time but the videos interact with each other.

I really don’t mean this to sound rude at all but like…

What is the point of having celebrity voice actors or guest-stars if it means you either:

1. Can never have another episode or plot line with that character

Or

2. Have to replace the celebrity voice actor with an actual voice actor for all future appearances???

It’s one thing if it’s like. A one time character or cameo. That sort of thing works for shows like Bob’s Burgers, which is extremely episodic, or if it’s for a character that is only relevant for one episode, and isn’t going to make future appearances.

But for characters that have plot-relevance, or that you want to showcase a lot…well…what’s the point?? It’s maybe ONE thing if you do have a really huge budget, but indie shows doing this seems really counter-intuitive.

What was really the point of having Norman Reedus voice Striker if they couldn’t afford to bring him back? Especially when Edward Bosco who has taken over the roll could have done an absolutely wonderful job with striker from the beginning?

I’m not asking this to say that Norman Reedus did a bad job. He’s a very talented actor, but the only reason to have him come on the show seems to be for clout? Which is really bizarre to me.

It reminds me of when Steven Universe had Nicki Minaj on the show as Sugilite. I LOVE Sugilite, and I think Nicki did a fantastic job voicing her, but I can’t help but wonder if we’d have gotten more of her if a voice actress had been hired to play her.

I’d like to see more of Bee, but the likelihood of her ever showing up again is very little, unless they get someone else to voice her.

Same thing with the new celebrity VAs they have slated for future HB episodes. And yes, it is very cool to have John Waters voice a character for you. But I wonder if he’ll ever be a part of the story or main cast, or if he’ll come in and we’ll just never see his character again.

It makes me think of when an animated movie comes out and all the trailers have long lists of A list celebrities who are in the movie, but don’t really showcase the story or animation.

HB having celebrity voice actors never feels like they chose the VA because they were the best person for the job. It comes off as getting celebrities to drum up hype and pull in more viewers. Which I mean. You can do! That’s fine.

But it may mean that we’ll either never see those characters in speaking rolls again, or that they’ll have to bring in a less expensive VA after the fact for all future appearances.

And if that’s the case then. Again, what’s the real point???

like man the parallels between stan and bill are so so so so so fascinating to me ough...... the most obvious thing is that they speak so similarly, often using the same terms and i can't help but wonder how intentional it all was on the part of the writers. biggest one being "eenie meenie miney you" to me, it's so specific.

it could simply be bill picking up stan's mannerisms through ford's memories to further appeal to ford (is that canon somewhere? i don't actually know but i see it mentioned a lot) but some of these are things bill still says and does even when ford is absent. for a being that's lived for trillions of years would terms he picked up only a couple decades ago cement themselves in his behaviour so much?

(also, has anyone ever brought up dreamscaperers' deleted scenes where bill summons a paddleball in the mindscape? stan does the same thing in his own mindscape in the finale. again, that's so specific i can't help but wonder how intentional it was or if it was just a coincidence. i know deleted scenes might not be the best to point to as evidence but i think i've only ever seen someone allude to in one fic and nowhere else?)

i havent read tbob and haven't really kept up much with the new info from it but i have seen the poem about stan and gosh like. it really does seem like it's being consistently hinted at over and over that there's something there with specifically bill and stan. the axolotl's poem was already eyebrow raising with how much of it could be applied to stan and now there's even more..

I can’t believe I’m agreeing with anything Gunther Steiner said, but he’s kind of right when he said Daniel came back too quickly.

It’s not that Daniel wasn’t ready for it. He got an opportunity to come back and he would have been stupid to refuse it. More importantly, Daniel LOOKED ready to come back. He’d clearly gone and done a lot of thinking and work to rebuild himself up. All the sim work he’d done with Simon reflected in his lap times for the Silverstone test. Everything he said on his comeback showed he’d put a lot of thought on what he’d do differently if given a second chance and he was committed to not make the same mistakes again.

The main problem was that the sports hadn’t had time to miss him, hadn’t had time to forget and remember that before mclaren happened, he was the last of the late brakers. So when he came back last year, people still had this image of him as the broken man from McLaren and then Daniel got injured and he didn’t get the chance and time to do anything to dispel that image before Liam came in. And then everybody kept comparing his youth to this image of Daniel and everyone decided they’d rather the new shiny one over the old broken one. Even then, they all kept asking where the old Daniel was and yet, any time the old Daniel did show up, everyone got mad that he dared to step out of the tiny box they wanted to keep him in.

In a way, there’s a certain peace in knowing he won’t be on the grid next year. Even if he had gotten the red bull seat for next year, the same cycle of ‘is this Daniel Ricciardo’s last race?’ would have gone on and on. They would have once again imposed some unachievable standards on him and each time, they would have kept moving the goalposts for him. Even when he would have had him back in that seat, Christian wouldn’t have ever forgiven him for leaving in the first place and the sports in general would still not have forgiven him for failing at McLaren. And that would still have been true even if he’d gone and recaptured his glories of the past. Somehow Daniel has never been afforded the same grace others have been given over and over again

what do you mean the japanese version is the only real, valid and canon version and can by definition only fit the characters better and be better than any dubbed version 😵

I'm gonna need people to stop blaming BookTok for the election because of one dumbass outlier's frankly insane comparison of Donald Trump to "morally gray" dark romance heroes (because I'm gonna be honest, anyone seriously comparing any presidential candidate to a romance novel character is just... operating on a very specific level)

and start looking at the rightward swing of Gen Z, the same generation that has a puritanical fascination with censorship and fear of the depiction of sex

(and let's be honest, probably a fear of sex in general)

I gotta be honest, the ending of JJK isn’t doing it for me. It feels underwhelming. And before anyone freaks tf out and tells me that I “can’t read” or that I “didn’t understand the point of JJK” I can promise you that I did. I understand and I can read between the lines and make inferences. I can also promise you that I know just because the ending isn’t my cup of tea, does not mean that the ending is objectively bad. I get all of that.

And yet, I still think the execution was fumbled and I think that’s a bummer. In a desperate need to be *different* from the rest of Shonen manga, I think the last 10-15ish chapters have felt incredibly similar to the rest of the genre. At least, in my opinion they have.

Argue with the wall if this post pissed you off. I’m allowed to post my opinion on my blog.

wolf character(s) most likely to be tumblr users?

hmm. tough question. i'm not sure any of them would? minkowski would like running a well-researched niche interest blog, but it would be a blog hosted on a more typical blogging website. lovelace's social media is like, an instagram account she occasionally posts on to connect with offline friends and acquaintances. eiffel has a ton of throwaway reddit accounts he forgot the passwords for. for the most part, i don't think any of them are that online. hera is very online against her will, and getting into arguments that are detrimental to her health, absolutely, all the time. but on tumblr...? i'm not sure.

ROTZBACKE! HAKENZAHN! OI! OI! OI!

wait james somerton sounds a lot like some people on tumblr when they start spouting off about queer history or supposed controversies within it. is that where you guys are getting your stuff? is it james somerton brain poisoning?

[sciderman]

I’m so sorry if this was asked before but seeing your stuff has been so so so nice and it’s made me start drawing again and I was toying with the idea of making a comic or maybe a blog of my own and I was wondering if you’d have any advice? Obviously starting out it’s probably gonna be a little rough to find an audience and idk how motivation is gonna work, but I want to try and push myself.

oh bless you! i can't really give any sort of advice except to just do it! everything else will fall into place. getting started is the hardest bit. keeping it up is pretty hard too. but it's the only way to get her done. you'll never regret what you create - you'll only regret what you don't. so full steam ahead, @maraliga! good luck!
