Super Smash Bros moves performed by Marvel stuntmen

[qsy-complains-a-lot]

Why are the stunts in that shit better than in most action movies of the past decade ?

[scienced-deactivated20250710]

Passion.

#you work a lot harder on things you actually want to do #versus things you may not want to do but are being paid for

[cwicseolfor]

Also, it’s being filmed and cut specifically to actually show the stunts, and not the explosions in the CG background. 

Sort of like when you let dancers film dance and you can actually see their feet and not just the upper third of their bodies, as you get with a lot of regular cameramen, the action they’re trying to convey isn’t being eclipsed by somebody else’s notion of what we’re supposed to find cool.

being aware of the impact of things we can often not think about (like straws) is important if we’re to make strides on environmental preservation 

that does not eclipse the importance of being aware of how it impacts disabled people. they’re both conversations we need to have

i think its very sexy how millennials are very anti-ad. like. ads were invented to encourage us to buy stuff. but me and all my friends? if we see an ad for something it fills us with rage. a pure hatred. if you interrupt my twitch stream or my stupid TV show for you stupid product i will hate you product for the end of time. i will spit on it whenever i see it. your ad doesn’t work on me. it doesn’t make me want to buy your shitty thing. it makes me want to piss on your shitty thing. fuck you ad companies. 

[fdsfjdsfjkf93723679267-deactiva]

ad companies: i know what we’ll do. we’ll make short video segments that show our product is a positive way so we live an invisible, subconscious imprint on the viewers mind that our product is Good, so that when they see it when they are out they’re more inclined to buy it

millennials: i dont drink monster, no. i was trying to watch an esports twitch stream and every 10 seconds monster got advertised to me. now everytime i see or think about monster, i am filled with a vile rage. i will never drink monster as long as i lie. i fucking hate monster so much

[whatheballs]

I hate to be the breaker of bad news, but nowadays the goal isn’t necessarily to make you like the product. It’s to make you remember it. Negative publicity is still publicity and all that jazz, but a product you dislike is still worth more than a product you don’t know about, and you’ll still think about that product and talk about it. Like you’re doing right now.

You are not immune to advertisement.

Honestly I’m a little tired of the abortion discussion centering around child raising and such. Like, if I got pregnant today, and someone offered to adopt the child and pay for my medical bills and everything, I still would have an abortion? You know why? Because I don’t want to be pregnant. I don’t want to put my body through that for nine months. And I don’t want to risk my life in childbirth. Fact is no one will be able to do that for me, so untimately it’s my choice and that’s all there is to it. 

[eleanor-gillespie]

I might lose some followers but this is so important to me. I’m a mother, I’ve been through pregnancy and labor, and friends let me tell you- that shit is HELL. No one should be forced to go through that. Ever. Abortion is a right. Periodt.

[oceansofherdream]

I’m even more pro choice after having carried a pregnancy to term. Pregnancy is HARD, it sucks, it forever alters your body (appearance wise and physiologically) and there are any number of complications that carry risk of morbidity or even mortality. Abortion is a right. Abortion is healthcare. Abortion is a safe, lifesaving procedure.

[lesbianfreyja]

it’s honestly better to know absolutely nothing about musicians except for their songs. like, don’t learn about them as people AT ALL. what are you supposed to do? fully enjoy the bleachers knowing he’s singing about lena dunham? think about a string of the blandest white men ever while taylor swift is evoking emotion? bop to lying is the most fun a girl can have when you know what panic! looked like when they were teenagers? imagine the sexy yearning nostalgia that selena gomez feels…for justin beiber? picture the faces of anyone british? it’s just not realistic. it can ruin the entire listening experience

[theroguefeminist]

counterpoint: knowing the song and the artist are gay increases its power a million fold

After years of living in the adulting world, I think I’ve come to a realization: Manners exist to guide you to good conduct even when you’re in a bad mood.

When you’re happy, when you’re feeling generous, when you’re pleased with your gift or your service or your outcome, it’s easy to be nice. It’s easy to tip the waiter well when you’ve had a good day. It’s easy to thank the teller or the clerk when you got what you wanted out of the transaction. It’s easy to smile and chit-chat with strangers on the road when you’re in a good mood.

It’s hard to tip the waiter when you didn’t enjoy your food. It’s hard to thank the clerk for their time when you’ve just been told there’s a problem with their account and they weren’t able to fix it for you. It’s hard to think of something nice to say when your aunt gave you a crappy sweater you neither need nor want. It’s hard to be nice to people when you’ve had a shitty day. It’s HARD.

That’s what manners are for. Scripts and phrases that you learn by rote to say when you can’t think of a single nice or good thing to say from your own volition. Yes, they’re scripted. Yes, the sentiment is empty. But the scripts work in every situation, and the emptiness provides a buffer between your own unhappiness and the rest of society.

Because most of the time, it’s not the waiter’s fault that the food you ordered wasn’t what you expected. It’s not the clerk’s fault that your account is overdrawn. It’s not the fault of the barista or the stranger on the subway that you got fired today or your favorite aunt died. But even when you can’t summon a smile or a cheery word, you can still have manners, because they will serve you the same in sunshine or rain.

AND NORMALIZE CIS LESBIANS HAVING CRUSHES ON TRANS WOMEN AND CIS GAY MEN HAVING CRUSHES ON TRANS MEN

(via @kayas-wife)

[thatadhdmood]

I asked my friend whether she has a constant inner dialougue going on, and she said no.

And I’m like?????? How can you not??

Are peoples heads silent most of the time????

Are they not constantly singing and talking and wondering and imagining bullshit in their heads 24/7

So then I asked around, to some other people and they all agreed!!! 

No nonstop inner talking!! 

They said for them, it was more pictures or not fully formed sentences then full speech.

So now I’m just trying to figure out if this is an adhd thing???? Because no one is an individual in their actions due to probability and stuff so I can’t be the only one.

I’ve tried researching it, and in psychology its called ‘inner speech’!!

Theres a lot of text and I’m getting bored of reading about this,,..,.,

So instead I wanted to ask, what any of your experiences with inner speech are? 

Because I’m curious about other peoples first hand experiences with it!

[intrepid-inattentive]

I have 2 songs, movie dialogue, a story I’m writing, and at least one conversation on the go at all times. It’s no wonder people with adhd are prone to substance abuse. I can see how appealing it would be to use something that would just make it all quiet

[the-adhd-society]

……….. I didn’t know silence was an option lmao.

[dans-left-ear]

People don’t have constant conversations and songs in their heads????

[deepfried-dildos]

i just hear revenge by captainsparklez constantly does that count

[deepfried-dildos]

Omg my friend got on my tumblr yes I always have inner dialogue to the point where I can almost hear it.

Ok like I’m here for the whole “if it doesn’t make you happy, don’t do it” movement but like, be smart, yeah? Don’t just quit your job out of the blue, even if it is soul sucking, get another job first. Don’t just kick your roommate out because you aren’t getting along, talk to them first. And don’t say absolutely everything that pops into your mind, because discretion will save your ass on occasion. I’m not saying you can’t live authentically, but be smart.

[itstheleopard]

And while we’re at it, rudeness and honesty are not the same thing. “I’m just being honest” is not an excuse to be nasty to someone for no reason, and “that’s just how I am” is not an excuse not to change your behavior.

[herzspalter]

Please tell me this doesn’t only happen to me.

not to be sappy on main BUT one thing that i really loved when studying linguistics was that the more important a word is, the earlier the concept of this thing was given a word. for example, the word water is similar in many similar languages (aqua, agua, água). so, the more important a word is, the more languages it’ll be similar across and the older this word will be, theoretically and generally speaking (many other things also affect this)

AND SO in my years studying linguistics, there was one word that was nearly identical across so many regionally different languages (though there are outliers of course), from europe to most of asia to subsaharan africa to indigenous languages. across nearly all languages this is the first word people learn how to say and maybe the first word humans in general officially named and defined:

mamãe - portuguese 

妈妈 (māmā) - chinese

ਮੰਮੀ (mamī) - punjabi

mamah - mayan (yucatec)

мама - bulgarian, russian, ukrainian

ماں (mäm) - urdu

মা (mā) - bengali

mẹ (may) - vietnamese

ママ (mama) - japanese

అమ్మ (am'ma) - telugu

mama - quechua

મમ્મી (mam'mī) - gujarati

അമ്മ (am'ma) - malayalam

amá - navajo

엄마 (omma) - korean

eme - native hawaiian

onam - uzbek

aana - yupik

mema - tagish

μαμά (mamá) - greek

mama - swahili

أمي (umi) - arabic

mayi - chichewa

माँ (ma) - hindi

mam - dutch

ម៉ាក់ (ma) - khmer

แม่ (mæ̀) - thai

அம்மா (am'mā) - tamil

අම්මා (ammā) - sinhala

amai - zulu

ama - basque

आमा (āmā) - nepali

အမေ (amay) - myanmar (burmese)

mamá - spanish

mom/mum- english

this isn’t actually the first word because we teach babies this word (most likely), but because the “mama” or “ama” sounds are the easiest things for babies to say, and it’s nearly always the only thing they can say at first, and adults across all languages defined their language around that.

babies all over the world for thousands and thousands of years all started out blabbering sounds like “mama” and mothers everywhere were all like Oh Shit That’s Me! I’m Mama!
