Taylor literally cannot win. She is dragged for not publicly supporting Kesha, then she does privately and is dragged for making it about her or how a tweet would’ve shown more support, rather than money to actually help Kesha pay for legal representation since her label has billions of dollars to use against her. She’s attention seeking if she does and a bitch if she doesn’t. People are impossible. Stop using Kesha’s sexual assault to play America’s Next Top Feminist!!!
Being abused can seriously affect your ability to distinguish between “not obviously pleased” and “obviously displeased” because abusers go from Neutral to Hostile for absolutely no discernible reason, and eventually you start worrying that everyone is going to be like that and you start feeling this urge to make absolutely sure that the people you actually care about aren’t mad or upset, because to you, “there’s no evidence that they’re not angry” is the same as “there’s evidence that they are angry”
FOR REAL a Hillary Clinton financial backer now owns the Onion and the Onion has already posted a Hillary propaganda piece very, very badly disguised as a satirical article. Oh god.
I mean it already looks like I’ll have nobody else to vote for if I don’t want a conservative dystopia for eight years but still, this is pretty sad.
I’m rolling my eyes but an article where Clinton calls her impending party nomination “icy, ink-dark gloom” ain’t exactly a puff piece
if you ever feel like you can’t escape your past fandoms, just think, at least your parents don’t keep making you tea in a mug with your dirty greypainted face on it
Okay, this picture is HUUUUUUUUUUUUGE, and it’s amazing.
It’s surreal to see a world without* an atmosphere and therefore a deep black sky. And before you claim it’s fake because there aren’t any stars, that’s because camera exposure to see the surface is too short.
*technically the moon has an atmosphere, but it’s around 10-100 trillionth of ours^
^assuming you’re reading this from Earth, and this isn’t being read in the year 2050 on a Mars colony
I was zoomed in on it, trying to figure out why it was making me vaguely uncomfortable and why my mind kept insisting this was fake, and I realized the problem I was having was that I was expecting atmospheric perspective to fade the contrast on the farther objects and make the horizon hazy, but….. no atmosphere.
i… am …disturbed
The preceding comment is interesting because it highlights one of the ways that our perception of reality can be culturally influenced.
You know how sometimes, when you’re watching a movie with computer-generated special effects, you can just tell whether certain scenes are CGI, even though you can’t put your finger on exactly why?
Well, one of the things your brain is picking up on to make that determination is missing or incorrectly simulated atmospheric haze; this is highly characteristic of cheap CGI because atmospheric haze is a huge pain in the ass to correctly calculate - most low-budget productions either omit it entirely, or else fake it with simple linear distance fog.
That’s why photos of the Lunar surface and objects in outer space tend to look fake to modern audiences: we’ve been unconsciously conditioned to associate wonky atmospheric haze with bad CGI.
every time this post come back to my dash is more and more horrendous
Let me tell you about
The 1973 Levi’s Gremlin.
Looks like just another AMC Gremlin, yeah? Well, notice the Levi’s logo on the front fender just behind the wheel well, and you know that when you get in this car, you’re in for something very…special.
Your eyes are not deceiving you. The seats and the trunk are upholstered in GENUINE LEVI’S DENIM, complete with bronze stitching. This is not some ironic custom job from recent times, either; this was a real option offered by AMC in 1973.
