Frozen vs HTTYD:

Snow

[ghosta-r]

I love this comparison.

Disney animated snow here to be soft and heavy. I think they even developed a whole software just for animating snow! They add a lot more vivid color, like the blues in the shadows and the oranges in the light. Obviously, the way they animate catches the eye easier because of its strong color and bouncy movement. Characteristic and still reminiscent of the classic Disney movies.

Dreamworks made the snow here look powdery, like it had just fallen. Look how it kind of “explodes” and clouds up like dust when it’s hit with such a great impact. It’s less colored by light, but it still looks very real. Dreamworks puts so much love and detail into their animation, making it look so real you feel like you can reach out and touch it.

Both Disney and Dreamworks make movies that are amazing to look at. I could stare at the details forever.

[sasstrid-and-dorkcup]

This is the kind of animation and positivity i need on my dash.

…*sighs* such beauty…

[bootymax]

This is legit the first Disney/Dreamworks comparison i’ve ever seen on my dash that hasn’t been aggressively one-sided i’m shocked

ladies and gentlemen we have officially reached the “in case a nuclear attack happens” phase……. [x]

[trip-usingizi-rp-blog]

This shit is wild.

[goodshinyhunter]

There should be an amber alert or something to warn us, hopefully. But if you’re so close to the blast that the entire outside flashes white your first priority is to get underneath the blastwave any way you can.

After that you have 2 options: drive away or protect yourself from the radiation.

Option one is tough because literally everybody else is going to want to do this, and you could get stuck right in the fallout. And lemme tell you, if you’re stuck out there when the ashes first fall for more than 15 minutes, you’re dead. Radiation poisoning.

Option two is harder, but has a better success rate. Get underground. Most houses have a crawlspace, but in this bad time just saw a fucking hole in your floor. Put table over hole. Pack some large containers (like tubs), with dirt, tight, and stack them on your table or wherever you’re going to be directly underneath. you need 36 inches if dirt to be protected from the radiation poisoning. You could preemptively buy lead and stick that in a container with a lot of serface area, i forget how many inches you need vertically.

How ever much serface area the dirt/metal/lead covers is how much you and your party will be able to move around. As long as there’s enough inches vertically you’ll be good so long as you stay under it.

You gotta stay under there for at least 2 weeks, 3 to be sure.

Also, if you can see the mushroom cloud, stick your arm out as far as you can. Do a thumbs-up and close one eye. If your thumb is bigger than the cloud, you are safe. If the cloud is bigger or the same size as your thumb, then that means you are in the radiation zone and should evacuate immediately.

Fuck I cant believe this is something I need to reblog.

[daughterofscotland]

… Wow.

[thehappysorceress]

It’s like being in elementary school all over again.

When we’d practice hiding under our desks, in case of a nuclear attack. 

Never imagined we’d go for round 2.

where’s the lie

[carnivoresailor]

I don't feel like I'm living my own life. Feels like someone dropped me where I am. I don't feel any joy in the things I do for myself anymore. I honestly can't remember the last time I did.

Fred Rogers Acceptance Speech - 1997

[sandvichette]

Our neighbor didn’t die, he was just needed someplace else.

[murphmanfa]

He took a moment that was about recognizing him and turned it into a moment to recognize everyone who was there and everyone who made it possible for him to do what he does. If you want a perfect example of why he is so fondly remembered and such a great person, it’s tough to find a better one than this.

What's the shower orange?

A shower orange is a glorious experience that you should perform at least once in your life.

Step 1: Get an orange. Room temperature is fine, but refrigerated makes the contrast even better. 

Step 2: Put on a hot shower. 

Step 3: Take the whole orange into the shower - yes, while naked. Treat it like an otherwise normal shower. 

Step 4: Use your teeth and fingernails to rip open the orange and take huge messy bites out of it. Drop the peels by the drain, and your shower will be full of citrus oil smells. You can pick them out later. Devour the orange. Revel in it. 

Step 5: Finish your shower and clean up the leftover bits of peel and seeds. If you thought ahead, you could also have a trash can set up outside the shower for the peel and such, but I dont think it’s necessary.

The Islamic State has lost Mosul to Iraqi security forces

Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi traveled to Mosul on Sunday to declare victory in the nation’s fight with Islamic State militants there, the New York Times reported, though years of vicious fighting and the recent nine-month campaign to retake the city have left it in ruins.

“The world did not imagine that Iraqis could eliminate Daesh,” al-Abadi said, according to the Washington Post. “This is all a result of the sacrifices of the heroic fighters who impressed the world with their courage.” Read more (7/9/17)

I’m rather perplexed by this. But, I’m still not surprised at all, that we often sensationalize someone’s behavior because she is a teenage white girl that people normalize or humanize, while anyone else non-white who exhibit those same traits would be deemed subhuman or just “another ratchet person”.

Hazel Scott playing two pianos at the same damn time with ease

[erinbowbooks]

Hazel Scott was a musical sorcerer and a civil rights hero.   She:

 was admitted to Julliard at 8.  

was performing in top venues by 16.  

pioneered “swinging the classics” and made the equivalent of a million dollars a year doing it.  

was the first person of color to have their own national TV show.  

went to Hollywood but refused to be cast as a “singing maid.”  Demanded and got control over her casting, her wardrobe, and how footage featuring her was cut.  

refused to perform in segregated venues and led charges for integration in several northern cities, notably Spokane.  

She was brought down by the House Committee on Unamerican Activities, and has been largely forgotten.  But she was a sorcerer, and a hero.

Let’s un-forget her.

Why do women need a whole day about them?

Because Ada Lovelace wrote instructions for the first computer program in the mid-1800s and I had no idea.

Because, F. Scott Fitzgerald plagiarized his wife, Zelda’s writing and used it in The Great Gatsby and his other books.

Because, black women, let alone any women, were not aware of the great contributions Katherine G. Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson made towards NASA and the space program.

Because the current president of the United States is a self proclaimed ‘pussy grabber’.

Because doctors (both men and women) are only NOW seeming to realize that women patients cannot be treated based on male patient information.

Because basic products cost more for women than they do for men.

Because feminine hygiene products are taxed.

Because Renee Richards existed before Kaitlyn Jenner and she fought policy in the NY Supreme Court, but she doesn’t get talked about.

Because Marsha P Johnson was basically removed from a movie about the Stonewall riots.

Because there STILL aren’t decent pockets in most women’s clothes.

Because Maria TallChief founded the Chicago ballet, but I’m sure most young girls who dream of being a ballerina don’t know about her.

Because Frida Kahlo and Georgia O’Keefe were amazing artists and people, but they weren’t the only female painters in history.

Because Evelyn Glennie is the first person in history to successfully create and sustain a full-time career as a solo percussionist.

Because Crystal R. Emery’s documentary, “Black Women in Medicine,” was amazing and should be seen by more people.

Because men are still determining how and when my body should and can be used and function.

Should I go on?

Edited to add differently abled women who rock the world too.

AWWW I LOVE THIS

[odinsblog]

Kinda seems like a one sided conversation, doesn’t it? I’m tired of “conversations on race” whenever another innocent, unarmed black person is executed by the police. They’re as perfunctory as they are repetitive.

We need justice, not another hollow conversation that doesn’t change anything and does nothing to prevent the next shooting.
