Me: *Removes my cat from my lap to do something else.*

My cat: Father is...evil? Father is unyielding? Father is incapable of love? I am running away. I am packing my little rucksack and going out to explore the world as a lone vagabond. I can no longer thrive in this household.

May i add the piece from artist Verbal Vomit

[unyanizedcatboys]

Glad to see we’re all in agreement that cats talk like disparaged victorian children

[explorerrowan]

I am so incredibly glad we finally moved on from "i can has". Cats are clearly smart enough for advanced sentence structure and dumb enough to draw entirely incorrect conclusions about what they're talking about.

[dualclock]

My cat, banging the cabnet door over and over and over: bang bang bang

Me: you will not earn what you desire by banging the cabinet door.

My cat: This is a test of wills, is it not? We shall see if your ability to put up with my incessant banging outlasts my eternal lust for snackie treats. Years of conditioning have hardened me for this purpose. bang bang bang

Me: ksst!

My cat, throwing herself to the ground like she's been shot: Oh! Oh I have been assailed in my own home! Have mercy, have pity! Surely in the cruel darkness of your heart there is some mote of goodness that might stay your hand! Do not strike me, I pray you!

Me: ok

My cat, after waiting about 3 minutes: bang bang bang

So to further out myself as a Fandom Old ™

I’m browsing ao3, as one does, and this one image struck me to the core and I just stared at the screen for like a solid 20 seconds

Oh how the world has changed

[renthony]

I think my favorite experience with an American was when I said “I’m from Finland” and she said “Oh so do you speak Scandinavian?” and I swear to god nothing will ever surpass that moment

[iraincorporated-deactivated2018]

Actually I fucking lied I’m pretty sure to peak was when my mother was telling a cashier in a target that we couldn’t wait two weeks because we were on vacation and we lived in The Netherlands and she said “The Netherlands? you mean that peter pan place?” 

[iraincorporated-deactivated2018]

thank you @worldofwhales for this lovely addition

OH MIO DIO

[sebadass]

i went to summer school in england when i was like 14 and there were some american people and when i said i was italian they started speaking spanish, and when i was like “hey i don’t know spanish can u pls speak english” they were like “but…. you’re from italy… do you not speak spanish in europe?” “No, we speak italian in italy” “oh, that’s a language?”

[buffmanovargas]

one time I frustrated this girl so much at one point by not speaking English around her to avoid conversations with her because she was a terrible person and she said “GO BACK TO FRANCE” after snapping one day, entirely convinced Italy was in France

[no-passaran]

Asdfaddahsd this reminds me of a girl in my geography class when i was in the USA who believed Paris was the capital city of Italy. She also couldn’t be convinced that Poland is a real country because she said it was made up for a movie.

[troubleshootingspacekangaroo]

They were right about Poland, its existence is largely theoretical

[kaimaciel]

I had several. A lot of folks either think that the entire Iberian Peninsula is Spain and that Portugal is part of Spain.

Once I was asked why my Spanish was funny. I told them I was speaking Portuguese and they asked if that wasn’t the same thing.

[soupcowboy]

I met someone once who thought brazil was in africa, not south america.

[spidey-loving-starkid]

I was in a Walmart in Chicago with a friend who lived locally, and a staff member came up to us and asked if we needed any help. I explained that I was just looking around because there’s no Walmarts in Australia, which is where I’m from. She asked how long I had been in America for and I told her a few weeks, and she replied “Wow you speak really good English for only being here a few weeks”.

[gallusrostromegalus]

When I was going to school in Hawaii more then one person back home in CO asked me what it was like going to school in another country. An uncle asked me what the currency exchange rate between American and Hawaiian Dollars was.

[majestic-salad]

one time when we were really young, my brother and me were in a mcdonalds playground in america and a girl cried when he told her we were from the netherlands, she thoght we were from hell

[jasmiinitee-deactivated20210610]

My Estonian-Finnish chemistry teacher was once visiting America with her husband and two sons. They were asked about their accent at some theme park, and told that they came from Finland. The cashier’s response was to ask which US state Finland is in.

[theres-no-going-home-deactivate]

My mom is an argentinian history teacher. Once she had to give classes to exchange students from the USA. Upon arriving, they asked in what state Argentina was, while being in Argentina. Like these idiots just get into a plane and dont question it, dont look at a map, dont find it strange when the trip is 13 hours long or why everyone is speaking spanish with italian accent.

They also didn’t know the USA had lost the Vietnam war, or what the Worker’s Day was, or that it was celebrated literally in every country except for the United States… when it’s about the Chicago Martyrs. From like, Chicago. And these guys didnt know.

[ladymelisande-deactivated202407]

[violyntfemme]

Posts like these remind me that no matter how many reasons I think there are to be embarrassed about being American, there’s always SO MANY MORE (and I’m American… unfortunately).

[thereadaholic]

I work at a call center and one time a customer called in and said he couldn’t understand me as I didn’t speak English, and escalated to my supervisor.

… Really? Exactly how do you not understand English when I’m from England and we INVENTED THE LANGUAGE.

My supervisor still hasn’t let me live it down.

[anamericaninestonia]

I told an American guy I just moved from Estonia and he said “I’m not familiar with that university. Where is it?”

[woodelf68]

A co-worker once stated that France was a city in the country of Paris.

[uncahier]

Every single person I’ve met from New Mexico has a story about having to explain to other Americans they’re from a regular state in the US, not the country of Mexico.

‘eat the frog' method

Hi all, it’s werelivingarts. I just stumbled across this method called ‘eat the frog’, which means you get the most difficult or important task out of your way first. I actually have been using this method for a long time, hope this post gives you a new way of managing your time and productivity! 😜

“If it’s your job to eat a frog, it’s best to do it first thing in the morning. And if it’s your job to eat two frogs, it’s best to eat the biggest one first.” – Mark Twain

HOW TO DONATE TO BLM WHEN YOU HAVE NO MONEY

a black woman named zoe amira posted a video on youtube. this video is an hour long and filled with art and music from black creators. it has a ton of ads, and in result will rack up a ton of revenue. 100% of the ad revenue from the video will be dispersed between various blm organizations, including bail-out funds for protesters. it will be split between the following, dependent on necessity

brooklyn bail fund

minnesota freedom fund

atlanta action network

columbus freedom fund

louisville community bail fund

chicago bond

black visions collective

richmond community bail fund

the bail project inc

nw com bail fund

philadelphia bail fund

the korchhinski-parquet family gofundme

george floyd’s family gofundme

reclaim the block

aclu

turn off your adblocker and put the video on repeat. do not skip ads. let it play on loop whether you’re listening or not. mute the tab if you need to focus elsewhere. but let. it. play.

youtube will donate to blm for you.

please, please reblog. for people who don’t have money to spare, this is incredibly important information to have.

[luckfoser]

to maximize ad revenue lots of people in the comments are giving roughly the same general tips:

1. don't watch it on repeat. 

2. don't watch it in a playlist. 

3. Don't fast forward or skip. 

4. Don't skip the advertisements. 

5. Watch with atleast 480p and half the volume. 

6. After watching this, watch 3 to 5 any other videos then search this video (don't click it from your watch history) and watch it again. 

7. Don't clear watch history and search history. 

8. Comment and like this video. 

9. Share this on your social media platforms.

the “half volume” one might seem tricky but remember that many browsers allow you to mute tabs

“I am sick of writing this poem but bring the boy. his new name his same old body. ordinary, black dead thing. bring him & we will mourn until we forget what we are mourning & isn’t that what being black is about? not the joy of it, but the feeling you get when you are looking at your child, turn your head, then, poof, no more child. that feeling. that’s black. \ think: once, a white girl was kidnapped & that’s the Trojan war. later, up the block, Troy got shot & that was Tuesday. are we not worthy of a city of ash? of 1000 ships launched because we are missed? always, something deserves to be burned. it’s never the right thing now a days. I demand a war to bring the dead boy back no matter what his name is this time. I at least demand a song. a song will do just fine. \ look at what the lord has made. above Missouri, sweet smoke.”

“i am a monument to all your sins” is such a fucking raw line for a villain it’s amazing that it came from halo, a modernish video game, and not some classical text or mythos

FUCK THIS I SPERFECT, IT SHOWS THE ARM PRONATING AND ALL THE MUSCLES SHIFTING ALONG WITH THE WRIST

IT EVEN HIGHLIGHTS THE ULNA BONE  

HEY THIS IS THE ULTIMATE ANATOMY REF, FUCK THOSE MISLEADING TERRIBLE FUCKING “ANATOMY” TUTORIALS THAT GOEAS AROUND TUMBLR, THIS IS ALL OYU NEED, LOOK AT THE LATISIMUS STRETCHING OVER THE SERRATUS, THE PECTORAL MUSCLE MOVESUPWARDS AND OVER THE BICEP AND EXTENDS  ALONG WITH THE ARM THERES EVEN THE CORACOBRACHIALIS;. AAAA OMFG I’M SO HAPPYYYYYY

[anatomicalart]

Admin Kin here: This is one of the most helpful references in our library, but I wondered if any of our followers might be able to help identify the color coded muscles? It would be great to be able to know what is what while practicing from these sheets!

[hamaonoverdrive]

Sure, @anatomicalart! The colors get reused between the arm/back angles so I’ll separate them.

Arm view: Red = Deltoids (all three heads are in one color) Blue = Latissimus Dorsi Green = Biceps Brachii Yellow = Triceps Brachii

Forearm: Red = One of the wrist flexors Blue = Brachioradialis

Back view, left side: Red = Deltoids (all three heads are in one color) Blue = Latissimus Dorsi Green = Infraspinatus, Teres Minor, Teres Major Yellow = Trapezius (all groups one color)

Back view, right side: Red = Supraspinatus Blue = Serratus Anterior  Green = Rhomboids Yellow = Levator Scapulae
