Violet Starling (Cinnyricinclus leucogaster) with feather detail. Iridescence in bird feathers is due to microstructures of the feather refracting light like a prism. Fossil evidence has shown that birds have had these structures in their feathers for at least 40 million years.

Yesterday my mom posted a picture on Facebook of my 5 year old brother Sam wearing a pair of shoes he picked out for his first day of preschool.

She explained to him in the store that they were really made for girls. Sam then told her that he didn’t care and that “ninjas can wear pink shoes too.”

Sam went to preschool and got several compliments on his new shoes. Not one kid said anything negative toward him about it.

However, my mom received about 20 comments on the photo from various family members saying how “wrong” it is and how “things like this will affect him socially” and, put most eloquently by my great aunt, “that shit will turn him gay.”

My mom then deleted the photo and told Sam that he can wear whatever he wants to preschool, that it’s his decision. If he wants to wear pink shoes, he can wear pink shoes.

Sam then explained to her that he didn’t like them because they were pink, he liked them because they were “made out of zebras” and zebras are his favorite animal :)

What does it say about society when a group of adults could stand to take a lesson in humanity from a class of preschoolers?

Words cannot express how happy this makes me.

Omg forever reblog

This is just… Wow…

Trivia

hoofprint-is-spooky:

I actually read the Daredevil comics where he pretended to be a fake twin brother who was Daredevil.

And that isn’t even one of the stranger things he did. Like swap bodies with Doctor Doom, fight ghosts, or fight a guy who was a legit Daredevil who rode a bike through hoops.

Also my favorite Daredevil enemy is Gladiator. The poor guy just couldn’t catch a break.

I bet he didn’t see any of this coming when he decided to be a superhero

charity: water, PewDiePie, and you!

Over the past couple years, we’ve had the pleasure of working with charity: water in our bundles and the Humble Store.

One of the first bundles to include charity: water was the Humble Weekly Bundle hosted by PewDiePie in 2013. The bundle included games such as Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Thomas Was Alone, and McPixel and ended up raising $187,000 that went to charity: water.

After the bundle ended, charity: water allocated the money to a variety of projects. These projects were recently completed, and charity: water sent us the results!

PewDiePie’s Humble Weekly Bundle helped fund seven projects across Rwanda (including a school) and brought clean water to 4,594 people. You can view all of PewDiePie’s completed projects here.

Not only does the charity: water website detail completed projects, but it also gives you access to maps (and even coordinates that you can plug into a map on your own!) showing the location of where you helped fund clean water access.

We can’t thank you enough for all of your support, and we hope you’ll enjoy seeing how your money was put into action.

Proud to be part of this. And most of all: THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU WHO PARTICIPATED! 

I can understand if people don’t watch his videos but anyone who says pewdiepie is an ass is absolutely wrong.

What did the following people do wrong bc I wasn’t paying attention but suddenly nobody likes them and I don’t get it

Xkit guy
Sixpenceee
Emma Watson
Joss whedon

Like really if this is something problematic like they dropped some trash beside the bin instead of inside it then I’m going to be pissed off

No clue about expencee or watson but someone had accused xkit guy of rape. They had no proof or any shred of evidence and nobody came out to say that it did indeed happen so it was ruled false but the damage was done.
Joss Whedon started shipping black widow and hulk and ‘feminists’ think that a woman can’t be strong while also having a romantic relationship.

fun fact: the person who made fnaf was living in poverty a year ago and the funds he makes from these games are what is supporting him so maybe wanna stop being a dick and let people just enjoy themselves?

It would be like telling a comic artist that they’re putting their comics out too often when it’s become their only source of income.

So what if all the games come out in less than a year, Scott Cawthon still puts a lot of effort in them. To add secrets for the fans to find, to add to the lore.

He doesn’t just rehash the same game thrice like CoD or Mario does, he actually adds new mechanics like the mask and no doors and hte sound and vents and system reboots.

He adds enough to keep the fans on their toes and keep them guessing. Scott Puts a lot of work into these games so let people be excited for it. get over your shitty hipster “this is bad because it’s popular” attitude. it doesn’t make you a better person for not liking it. It makes you an asshole for holding yourself higher than those who do because of it.
