how would you feel if you woke up tomorrow and find out exactly 100 of the world’s richest people died of heart attacks at exactly noon universal time. can you imagine the theories. light is absolutely a loser for not doing this
I use this scene to explain implicit bias to people. his first instinct is to assume the aliens are violent and the girl is innocent, but instead of acting on those assumptions he takes time to recognize his bias, look at the situation again, and then act.
I watched this with my dad when I was fairly young, and I remember thinking that this was why he got chosen; before he even really knew what was going on, he didn’t assume that aliens were dangerous monsters.
Many people read this scene that way. I read it as future Agent J being very, very good at bullshitting an excuse for his strategy of “pick target at random”.
What it read to me is that he was in fact bullshitting the reason for his shot, but that he didn’t choose his target at random; he was fed up with the mysterious interview process, and was giving a middle finger to it.
And it’s that independent streak that separated him from the conformist “best of the best of the best” candidates.
wasnt the egg chair also a test to see who could break free from the “best of the best” conformity? like everyone else dealt with the shitty paper with no backing but he was the only one who had the gall to actually use a goddamn table?
There once was a singer of old, Who then broke away from the fold, He won’t give you up, He won’t let you down, In a word you have been limerick-rolled.
How dare you make me read this with my own two eyes…
terfs idealize a form of femininity that is a white supremacist’s wet dream. they make fun of “TIMs” as men masquerading as women as evidenced by their broad shoulders, wigs, narrow hips, facial and body hair, musculature and even bone structure (phrenology, anyone?) as if those aren’t the very same characteristics i see on my indigenous and black cis aunties, mothers, and sisters. if you are not white, lithe, and barely hairy you will never fit into their idea of womanhood! the same rhetoric that excludes and polices trans women is a threat to all women of color, cis or trans.
terf ideology is incapable of examining the multitude of relationships we have to girlhood, womanhood, and motherhood because it is an ideology fueled and sharpened by white supremacy. it is an ideology with a terminal and suicidal end if you are not white.
remember that time a TERF looked at 4 CIS women and decided they were secretly men bc they were OLYMPIC ATHLETES WHO WERE RIPPED AF? not to mention, Chinese, who have different facial structures and body types from white people.
hey since louis tomlinson admitted that larries made him and harry’s friendship fall apart and dan howell said phannies digging into his relationship w phil made him experience ptsd symptoms and brought him to a terrible place, can u all stop w the shipping bullshit now
psa: shipping real people is not only harmful to their mental state, but also harmful to their personal relationships, and writing sexually explicit fanfiction about people that exist in real life is creepy as well, and needs to stop. celebrities do not exist for your fetishization of them, and we need to start realizing that. you would not be comfortable if someone wrote a sexually explicit story about you, so why would a celebrity be comfortable with it? just because they’re famous does not mean you’re allowed to sexualize them and violate their privacy.
I feel that if I don’t repost this somewhere every year at some point, I’m living my life incorrectly.
What is even..
Some backstory. In FFXIV, for a very short spurt of time, there was a glitch where the upper body of a model would lock and freeze in place while the rest would still perform animations from other emotes and attacks. The results were pretty incredible for those that could get the lock to happen.
It was quickly hot-fixed out, but not quickly enough for the above video to get made, un/fortunately.
