What if oxygen is poisonous and it just takes 75-100 years to kill us?
My science teacher said he thinks that’s true actually
Yeah this is actually pretty much exactly what is going on. It’s why anti-oxidants are such a big deal. Bonus fact: oxygen oxidizes stuff in your cells or, in other words, it’s not toxic, just setting you on fire
very very slowly.
What if there are aliens out there but they subsist on entirely different substances and they’re just scared as shit of us and our crazy ass hell planet? Once in a while some alien anthropologist type suggests checking out the people on this inhabited planet out towards the galaxy’s edge. The other aliens just look at the naive academic with horror. No!! We do not go to that world. That is where the DEATH BREATHERS live. They recreationally consume poisons and are more or less composed of biological fire. Their atmosphere is made of rocket fuel. We must leave the DEATH BREATHERS in peace. Do not go there. Do not.
I thought that it just causes us to rust very slowly, not set us on fire.
Can I just say that I think this is the way Mulan should appear int the parks. In the beginning of the movie they make it very clear that the dress she wears to meet the matchmaker is not comfortable nor does it represent her personality. She spends the whole of the film proving that she is not a prize to be won or just a pawn to be married off at earliest convenience. She proves her worth in this outfit. She saves China in this outfit. She falls in love in this outfit. She risks her life, makes her strongest friendships, and changes the entire country IN THIS OUTFIT. Then they have her walk around the park in the same outfit she wore in the first scene of the movie and I think it is really negative toward her character. That is not who she is.
I’ve seen this post pop up on my dash time and time again, and it’s never quite sat right with me. I agree 120% with the idea that the pink “matchmaker dress” is a poor way to represent Mulan in the theme parks, but… so is her soldier armor. It’s just as much not who she is as the pink dress. It represents her pretending to be Ping, and her deceiving everyone around her. It is her pretending to be a man, to be someone else entirely. Honestly, if you want to talk about the outfit that best represents her, I’d suggest this one:
The outfit she wore when she defeated Shan Yu. That is who Mulan is; a warrior, but still a woman. It displays all of the strength that she truly has, yet still manages to be true to who she truly is. This it the outfit that she changed the entire country in; would anything have changed if she was still pretending to be a man? I doubt it. This proves that a woman can be strong, but still be feminine. Given that many people tend to equate being feminine with weakness, I think portraying that the two are not mutually exclusive is a damn powerful message to be portraying to kids in theme parks.
Anonymous asked: ☠ because you're so smart that if we ever got into an argument I feel like you'd absolutely tear me apart
Well it depends on whether it’s an argument or a debate.
You see, teh difference between an argument and a debate is that a debate is completely subjective, it’s not about what’s true or false it’s about presenting facts of both sides and letting the people listening decide what they believe is better. An argument is more black and white. One person is right and the other is wrong. If I find that I am wrong, I will back down.
These are from a book called Disorder in the Courts and are things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and published by court reporters that had the torment of staying calm while the exchanges were taking place.

oh my god these are great
fuck this is like reading a jokes and not actual quotes
Look how convenient it is to have the side bar right here where it’s nice and good because I have all the tumblr functions jsut one click away so when I’m done getting caught up on tumblr I can just glance and see how many followers i have or what my activity is like. I can easily go to my liked posts and check out hat one I was saving for when I’m not on mobile. I can have quick access to my drafts and even log out if I want.
And what’s this?
A tumblr logo that refreshes the page without sending people to the hospital and nearly killing them
Man, it sure is nice to have all the functions be perfectly safe and quick to access without putting peoples lives at risk. I mean, you don’t want people to sue you, staff, do you?
Someone better call a doctor cause staff is getting some serious burns
Sorry, the doctors can’t help staff. They’re too busy taking care of asksilverstarandfriends sister because the logo change caused her to have a seizure and be hospitalized.
she just passed and my parents are refusing to do anything sadly
Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean…
Listen, your parents do need to do something. The tumblr staff has gone way to far and it is hurting people. Killing people. Someone needs to do something and your family has every right to make them stop.
they think it’s my fault because I let her go on he computer while I unpacked (still haven’t finished yet) so hey think they should sue me instead of the site that caused it
No, it would be staffs fault for making a seizure inducing update. Because if it didn’t happen to your sister it would have happened to someone else.
Are you
Fucking
Kidding me?
The tumblr logo made your sister have a seizure and she’s in a coma now with 5% chance of survival? And now your still sat on tumblr dicking away, yelling at anyone who asks you to provide any bit of proof? “Can you provide a picture?” “In her entire 13 years of life my parents never took any and they won’t ever take any”
This isn’t even a believable lie this sounds like the shit kids used to makeup on IMVU dear lord.
Oh look, the agenda!
Your sister almost died so your sat here RPing on Tumblr? Your first concern is using this “tragedy” as proof that the update needs to be reverted? Why arn’t you at the hospital?
>The doctors wouldn’t/won’t let me in because I’m not her legal parent or gaurdian there’s nothing I can do to get In and my parents won’t even come to the hospital because they have to work while making no effort to get over here
There is something called a FMLA you know? Means you can take a leave in case of medical emergency and you still get paid/ can’t get fired for taking the time?
Ofc you raised her from age 8. This is usually how these little stories go so why not?
Know what I do when my sister is put in a coma and laying in the hospital? Post about it on Tumblr for attention and sympathy:
Oh no sorry, she’s actually passed and apparently nobody in this family gives a single fuck about it, making sure tumblr changes that logo is the fucking priority:
And the two parents that were too busy working to go see their child in the hospital are going to make their 16 year old daughter pay for the medical bill, since the 16 year old let the sister on the computer? THEY WANT TO SUE THEIR OWN 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER?
The only proof will be the obituary that YOU will type up? Why is this all the responsibility of a 16 year old? Where are the older siblings you speak of? {Since apparently the parents might as well not exist}
I see you already have an escape plan in place when people piece this shit together:
Who ever is believing this shit needs to log the fuck off, and I mean NOW.
-Billy
This is the least believable thing I’ve ever seen in the entirety of tumblr. Are people really that stupid.
The Tumblr staff may fucking suck, but I doubt the logo could kill anyone
This is one of the dumbest stories I’ve read on here, and I’ve seen a lot of dumb shit
Holy fucking god the bullshit these kids are spewing out is reaching new epic proportions
Fucking christ, op. Stop trying to pull stories out of your ass. Are you seriously that desperate for attention? How pathetic.
hey jackass, if you actually bothered to read, you would see that OP isn’t the one who said their sister was dead. Don’t blame me for that assholes lie.
Looking at the notes, this is one hell of a shitstorm I avoided. Honestly, I was willing to give benefit of the doubt that someone could have had a seizure, since there was a small degree of believability from my knowledge of a lack of a true definite on the full extent of sensitivity that would go from a headache in those photosensitive epileptic to seizure.
When it comes to life an death, I want to believe people are telling the truth because that’s a serious matter, but when things are going too “perfect,” it makes me feel like an ass for trusting someone on such a heavy lie. If it was left at a seizure, I would have been more likely to believe it, but the further things were laid out and denied, the more fake it looked.
I still feel like shit and am sorry I tried to make a push on a hoax by trusting someone saying they had family in a form of pain.
