He’s big boned.

did anyone ever actually read animorphs or did we all just glance at the covers and assume it needed no explanation on the way to the goosebumps section in our elementary school library
animorphs is a scifi series about the grey morality of war and child soldiers experiencing trauma, depression, PTSD, being frequently and brutally dismembered, disemboweled, literally tortured to the brink of death, forced to murder their own family members with their bare hands, and on page 22 of the very first book they watch the alien prince who gave them their ~wacky animal morphing powers~ scream while be eaten alive in vivid and gory detail
One dude permanently turned into a bird for a while, forgot how to make facial expressions when he was a human and ate roadkill. And that was one of the tamer things.
You know the starfish cover everyone likes to mock especially? The girl beat someone to death with her own severed arm in that one :)
What the fuck did I miss out on
At one point, they have to travel through time to stop someone from fucking everything up and they elicit the help of a magic space leprechaun but, because space leprechaun is neutral, he demands a blood price.
THe leader gets shot in the head during the american revolution and they find out the human who is stuck as a hawk is the son of the alien who gave them their powers and they also prevent the asshole who fucks time up from ever being born by preventing his parents from ever meeting. They all gain two sets of memories and the leader remembers being shot in the head and it drives him crazy.
I love the many different interpretations of the undertale cahracters people have
-sans being either 20 or 45
-mettaton being either a dramatic egocentric person or someone who deeply cares about his fans and everyone in the underground
-grillby either being completely done with sans shit or the one who is there for sans during the rough times.
-Frisk either being the most innocent person in the world or a flirtatious deviant.
I love these because all this
so as it turns out, staff never actually removed the fanmail feature like they said they were going to, they just removed the link on each person’s blog that made it possible to send fanmail, but it’s still entirely possible to actually send it if you just go to blogname.tumblr.com/send
the system is still there, they just removed the button for it
it’s like that lady who deleted the internet explorer icon i’m crying

DO NOT KISS A GIRL WHEN SHES MAD i am so tired of media portraying this as a good way to end an argument okie when ur partner is mad and yelling at u do not just kiss them to shut them up and make up okie how about u just fucking listen to your partner when theyre trying to tell u somethign
A guy is taking his girlfriend to prom. He waits in the ticket line for a really long time but gets them. He goes to rent a limo. The rental line is really long but he eventually does it. He goes to buy her flowers. The line at the florist is really long but eventually he gets the flowers. At prom, she asks him to go get punch. He goes to the refreshment table and there’s no punchline.
you’ve got to be kidding me
I am in physical pain
Reasons not to donate to Salvation Army this holiday season:
- They don’t pay their female pastors. (Their wages get added to their husbands’ paychecks.)
- They turn away gay people from homeless services and other programs.
- They fire people for having mental illnesses.
This sounds sketchy as heck.
The first claim requires their female pastors to be married to another member of the Salvation Army to even be possible, much less true, and none of the claims are sourced.
I’ve done a quick Google search on all three claims and wasn’t able to find anything I’d consider definite proof of any of these claims. Individual instances of the SA fucking up, yeah, but nothing that makes it seem like any of these claims are actual policy for the organization as a whole, and even a few “oh shit oh shit we’re sorry that’s not how we do things” on their part.
Trans people have actually died because the Salvation Army refused to let them into their shelters.
Gay homeless people have been turned away from their shelters.
Their Australian branch also has a history of child abuse dating back to the 1950′s. Which is really ironic, considering they smear-campaigned a guy and accused him of being a child molester because he… ran a conference on sex-positivity and sex education, and also happened to be into BDSM.
For years they had “MARRIAGE IS FOR STRAIGHTS ONLY” horseshit on their official website, but that’s since been taken down. Whether it was an epiphany of conscience or PR, I can’t say. But they’re still getting caught funding anti-gay stuff all of the time. Sometimes legislation restricting gay rights, sometimes conversion therapy organizations.
And like most cults, if you marry outside of the Salvation Army, they kick you out.
Granted, the original post should have cited its’ sources. But it is no secret that these people are demonstrably monstrous. I don’t understand why Google failed to give you any of this information.
The Salvation Army also regularly refuses to release their tax information for purposes of transparency. Religious organizations don’t have to, so they are within their rights by law in the US, but any org that wants me to give them money and then won’t prove where they’re spending it is super suspect.
The US branch still has (or had, six months ago) “gay sex is wrong” sentiments in their bylaws, although they claim they will allow queer people into their shelters and/or organization as long as they remain entirely celibate. In reality that tends to translate to *points up* and also has been read by some Salvation Army officers as an insistence that trans people present as their assigned-at-birth gender in order to be admitted.
There are so many better local and national charities you can give your money to. Don’t be suckered by the kettles.
Whenever I reblog or post information about the Salvation Army I always get a lot of “THEY’RE DOING GOOD LEAVE THEM ALONE” bullshit, so I’ll just pre-emptively respond: Yes, of course they do some good. For very specific people. Under very specific circumstances. I’m not saying you shouldn’t support charities that help people. But why would you support a charity that won’t help all people, including some of the most vulnerable? Why would you support a charity that won’t tell you what it actually does with your money? (I mean, despite their boasts about the frugality of their officers, we know what they do with some of the larger gifts they receive.)
The options aren’t “Salvation Army or nothing”. Just take the money you’d have given to them and give it to an organization that doesn’t turn away those in need from its door and claim that’s God’s will. This isn’t rocket fuckin’ science.
