REBECCA SUGAR’S WHAT?

[officialcyndilauper-deactivated]

now THIS is an ally

[beepothough]

Awe dude his sister died last year and she was gay.

And he had this huge mass wedding party to honor her.

And he called a bunch of celebrity chefs to make the food for it.

Wow this is… really cute?

I’m… sympathizing with Guy Fieri?

(And he did 101 gay weddings because he was trying to compare the Attorney General against marriage equality to Cruella DeVille, like, 101 dalmations.)

THE TRUE UNPROBLEMATIC FAVE

[inactive1346597623595641352]

Come to think of it I never actually found a single reason to dislike him. To my knowledge he’s just a goofball who likes food.

[rebel-at-heart713]

He has a show where he literally goes to small local restaurants that certainly can’t afford advertising and basically does an ad for them by trying their food.

As of April 2021, he has helped raise over 21 MILLION dollars for restaurant employees laid off/struggling during the pandemic.

Funniest shit I’ve ever seen.

[brightlotusmoon]

Ah, the Mary Suez.

[areawest]

hundreds of years of language evolution and innumerable events had to line up in the exact right order for that pun to make sense.

[dragon-in-a-fez]

teenagers have figured out that you can fake a positive covid test and get out of  school using lemon juice and the newspapers sending me push notifications about this seem to expect my reaction to be “oh no those horrible youths” when it is in fact “lmao based af”

[dragon-in-a-fez]

adults have spent the last 15 months obsessing over forcing kids back into in-person schooling regardless of the risks and without vaccines or proper mitigation measures and now kids are using the pandemic to fight back against a school system that’s an oppressive mental health-destroying horror on its best day, and I’m supposed to think this is a bad thing? idk fellow grups it sounds like you fucked around and found out

[null-is-sparing-you]

Also it’s not like the pandemic hasn’t ALSO made teens miss their peers. If they’re taking COVID tests, that tells me we should be looking at why they are so desperate not to return to the one place teenagers can gather without being accused of being delinquent.

[null-is-sparing-you]

You know what? No. I’m not done talking about our school system.

Anyone between the ages of … What is it, 6 and 18? Is expected to spend the majority of their time in a top down controlled environment where they get little to no say “for their own good”. They face judgement from those around them, and have no way to escape from each other or the teachers. I’d argue in some ways they’re treated worse than animals in that we don’t even offer a means of allowing two fighting students to avoid each other.

The school schedules don’t make much sense - not teacher, child, nor parent likes how early schools start

The pacing us bad for everyone, as fast students are forced to slow down and struggling students are left behind

And you know what? The pandemic would have been an EXCELLENT opportunity to try to address these problems. IT’S BEEN OVER A YEAR. Where are the pilots taking advantage of the chaos to bring in more flexible education opportunities? To allow kids to be grouped more fairly and maybe have less age based education and more skill based education? Where’s the work to help prevent wasting any student’s time and make schools more able to be partially online?

But no.

Because no one who is actually directly impacted by any of this gets a say, none of that happened!

Our schools are so messed up

[null-is-sparing-you]

MOREOVER America’s Work Life Balance and Work Culture problems? A.B.S.O.L.U.T.E.L.Y. START IN SCHOOL.

Homework? Plays into it. Top down culture? Plays into it.

Are we REALLY surprised that students are pushing back against school at the same time employees are resisting their bosses making them come back to work?

Same phenomena. Different ages.

[bobacupcake]

we are already living in the cyberpunk future and i know this because within a span of 3 days we went from this tweet:

to thousands of people making phony images and replying to them with their passionate desire to have them as a tshirt to overload the bots with nonsense and junk and send out warnings to shoppers like this:

and now we even have people replying to pictures of baby yoda with “i want this on a tshirt” knowing how ravenous disney is being with copyright in hopes to get the stores taken down altogether

i dont know what it is about stuff like this and the whole turn mei into a symbol of hk protesters thing but, its really reassuring for some reason

[pinkieperil]

And the next step…

[katherynefromphilly]

There is so much awesome in this post… Like, using freaking DISNEY to attack illegal art resellers… that is Next Level Chaotic Good right there

22 YEARS AGO ON DECEMBER 18, 1998 - DREAMWORKS ANIMATION RELEASED “THE PRINCE OF EGYPT”

Because DreamWorks was concerned about theological accuracy, they decided to call in Biblical scholars, Christian, Jewish, and Muslim theologians, and Arab American leaders to help the film be more accurate and faithful to the original story. After previewing the developing film, all these leaders noted that the studio executives listened and responded to their ideas, and praised the studio for reaching out for comment from outside sources.

The animation team for The Prince of Egypt included 350 artists from 34 different nations. Careful consideration was given to depicting the ethnicities of the ancient Egyptians, Hebrews, and Nubians properly.

Both character design and art direction worked to set a definite distinction between the symmetrical, more angular look of the Egyptians versus the more organic, natural look of the Hebrews and their related environments. The backgrounds department, headed by supervisors Paul Lasaine and Ron Lukas, oversaw a team of artists who were responsible for painting the sets/backdrops from the layouts. Within the film, approximately 934 hand-painted backgrounds were created.

Oh ok,I thought I was having a stroke

[equalistmako]

every time i listen to “you’re a mean one mr. grinch” i can’t help but sit there and think “what did the grinch do to hurt you?” because dude just stands there for 2 minutes and 58 seconds and drags the grinch into the dirt

[damianmcgintleman]

he stole christmas, kayla! stop with your #notallgrinches propaganda!

[equalistmako]

you know what if someone told me i was a three-decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce i’d probably be bitter enough to steal christmas too 

[prokopetz]

Interestingly, though The Grinch Who Stole Christmas is narrated by Boris Karloff, the big musical number is sung by the late Thurl Ravenscroft - an American voice actor better known as the voice of Tony the Tiger.

My headcanon is that the Grinch and Tony the Tiger had a bad breakup, and “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch” is the resulting breakup song.

[snickerslizard]

Did this really HAVE to be the first thing I see when I opened up Tumblr?

[prokopetz]

Yes.

DAMN IT WHY WOULD YOU BRING THIS BACK YOU HEATHEN

[logan-exe]

Why is this on my dash?

[princeanxious]

…..I’m.. Bothered? by the fact that I’m not bothered by this.

[randomslasher]

You’re not bothered?? I’m not only not bothered, I’m freaking invested. I’m having actual empathetic sadness for The Grinch. I want them to go into couple’s counseling. I want the “ten years later” when Tony visits Whoville on business and meets the reformed Grinch whose heart has grown 3 times its usual size. I want them to reminisce over a shared dinner of roast beast and wine, then spend a drunken night together, then realize that maybe things are different and people really do change. I want a 3-act story where there’s a long dark night of soul searching and the realization that maybe we’ve all got a little bit of bad banana with greasy black peel inside us, but that doesn’t mean we can’t make a damned fine banana bread if someone will give us a chance. 

[chooseyourmusehasmoved]

“maybe we’ve all got a little bit of bad banana with greasy black peel inside us, but that doesn’t mean we can’t make a damned fine banana bread if someone will give us a chance” is an incredibly profound quote and I did NOT expect to get it from a Grinch x Tony the Tiger post

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

so i’ve decided to make this happen actually

it's a classic scam. you buy cheap ingredients, renovate them using heat and other ingredients and flip em. by the time the cops catch up you've moved on to another dish

THERE'S ANOTHER FUCKING EPISODE LEFT ???

[thunderboltsortofapenny]

I went a FULL DAY on this site and JUST NOW was told there still another episode to air

[thunderboltsortofapenny]

I've been informed there are two? Two episodes? Two episodes left?

Watching the world of Very Professional Paleontologists decend into meme communication because the biggest paleo conference of the year accidentally censored the words “Hell” and “Bone” has been a highlight of my day.

All hail Heck Creek and BOOOOONE.

[feanor-the-dragon]

Wha... what???

[tall-glass-of-nope]

[sixth-light]

this is really funny but also...the filter censored “Wang”, which is the surname of a lot of Chinese palaeontologists (but not “Johnson”, an equally childish penis euphemism). It’s actually an astonishingly good example for why this sort of text-based censorship is biased, unhelpful, and doesn’t improve anybody’s online experiences. You fix issues around language by monitoring *user behaviour*, not by auto-banning Bad Words.

I love this post because it doesn’t look like it should work but when you really think it through it does

I did something productive today? 

Those 1-2inch long body goldfish are very young, and given the right conditions they grow large within the next two years of their lives. If placed into small aquariums or overstocked ponds, they will mature as small stunted fish and live shorter lives. Not many people know this fact, since pet stores and media think it’s normal for goldfish to stay very small. For being the cheapest pets available, they are one of the most expensive and difficult fish for beginners to keep properly.
