I like how like… with every new piece of Star Wars media that paints Tatooine as more and more of a shithole where everyone is a murderous crimelord the funnier it gets that Luke Skywalker just grew up on this planet completely normal. Like I’m envisioning a normal day at Tosche Station where a cyborg biker and a  Twi'lek prostitute are stabbing each other over a bag of spice and then it just pans over to this fresh-faced nancy boy sitting at a table sipping on his blue milk going “oh golly, I sure do love power converters!”

[neurotypical-karen]

Ok listen. Listen to me. Sometimes rural towns are just like that. I know someone who shot his cousin because they were playing with live ammo in their backyard and he never went to court. One time a guy who was driving my friend to school said “watch this” and snorted cocaine off of the steering wheel as he was turning a corner. And at the same time you will graduate alongside people who are completely innocent and have no idea shit went down. You will meet 17-year-olds who still don’t know how pregnancy works. This is one of the most realistic decisions in Star Wars

[aspiringwarriorlibrarian]

Luke thought his father was a navigator on a spice freighter, brought a rifle out to the desert with him in case he ran into the Sand People, and immediately got to wiping 3p0 and R2 of any identifying features because he knew the Jawas stole them. Luke knew damn well what kind of planet he lived on, but since he wasn’t personally involved in it crime was just another boring chore.

[arielsojourner]

Luke: I want to join the Rebellion. 

Uncle Owen: What do you want to leave the planet for, huh? Treason here not good enough for you all of a sudden? We’ve got plenty of laws to violate right here.

Luke: I want to make a difference!

Uncle Owen: You can commit crime at home when your chores are done. No need to go anywhere else.

everytime I remember that lesbian couple that have a marble statue of the two of them embracing and sleeping on a bed together over where their graves will be because the artists didn’t believe they would be able to be married before they died, so what they couldn’t have in life they could have in death, I fucking breakdown

memorial to a marriage; patricia cronin

[horrorlesbians]

“on july 24th, 2011- the first day that same sex marriage was legal in new york state, particia cronin and deborah kass got married. that same year the marble ‘memorial to a marriage’ was replaced with a bronze version. rainwater pools in the space between their two sculpted bodies, and falling leaves catch on the metal in the autumn. the two women sleep peacefully through snow and ice, and the scorching days of summer. over time the hands of cemetery visitors will wear down the bronze, burnishing it into a smooth shine. one day this will mark the final resting place of the two women. and someday people will have to remember that there was a time, long ago, when this was a memorial to a marriage that two women never thought they’d have.”

One of my friends is teaching a course this year and she decided to run an “experiment” on her students and the syllabus. Conclusion: she is hilarious and students never read the syllabus.

[beardedmrbean]

A few days ago I discovered this poor little guy laying on the train tracks at my local station, I took it upon myself to rescue him, clean him, and reunite him with his owner.

Any conspiracy theory about people going missing in National Parks is automatically silly to me. Like "Why are National Parks such a hotbed of disappearances???" because they're full of idiots. You've got thousands of people who've never pissed outdoors in their life wandering around the woods/desert/mountain with zero experience and zero gear and zero understanding that this place can kill them. You don't see as many disappearances in wild areas because people don't go to them unless they have some background knowledge. Whereas you get tour buses full of old folks and suburban families shuttling people into National Parks 365 days a year. If you took the same amount of buffoons and dropped them in the actual wilderness the disappearances would be significantly higher than at the parks. Use your brain.

[jellogram]

Some fun stuff from the notes:

park ranger who has seen people spread bacon grease on their campsite in the hopes of seeing a bear

British person who is appalled that North American national parks kill people

people who lure bison calves away from their mothers to photograph them

a lot of it involves bison

a LOT of it involves people trying to swim in the yellowstone thermal vents

woman who tried to retrieve her dropped cell phone from a pit toilet and FELL IN

Lots of people reminding me that caves are a problem too. I know, I just try to forget that caves exist because I hate them.

Guys who tried to hike the entire length of Florida in flip flops

Someone who approached a bear cub because they thought it was a raccoon

Someone who works at an unspecified national monument and says dead bodies keep turning up at the picnic area (Hello???)

A few Alaskans laughing at everyone

Scottish person who wishes their parks were as effective at killing tourists as ours are

A few NPS staffmembers saying the NPS is far, far too incompetent to wage any sort of large scale conspiracy about disappearances

Several death threats against David Paulides

People accusing me of being Bigfoot (I plead the fifth)

A group who got on a raft in a river assuming it would loop back around... like at a waterpark

Person recalling a time they saw a hiker "saved by monkeys" but did not elaborate on that

BISON

[headspace-hotel]

I met a girl last semester who volunteered at a national park for several years and she told a story of the time a facility that rehabilitates bear cubs had a lady pull up with a Black Bear in the back seat of her car because she had hit the bear with her car and drove an hour to the rehab facility with the bear in the car with her. They had to make a post that was like "PLEASE DO NOT BRING BEARS TO US. BEARS WILL KILL YOU"

I Have Found A Solution!

So, obviously classic wizard robes aren’t wheelchair friendly. (Alright, admittedly this isn’t common knowledge and also this definitely isn’t a problem for most but listen, this is a problem for me and I’m pleased to present a solution for it nonetheless.)

The issue is in the sleeves and the length of the robes. The traditional trumpet style allows them to get snagged, dirty, and caught in the wheels.

This is distinctly not an issue with other mobility aids such as canes and crutches, these wizards are fine to carry on with their trumpet sleeves simply rolled up if needed.

Now, one solution might simply to shorten the sleeves and hem to be out of the way, but that looks rather silly so I won’t do that. Instead I propose the more elegant design of a hanging sleeve to maintain that flowy magical feel while allowing for better range of motion.

Honestly I just love the look of hanging sleeves in general and think more people should appreciate them, wheelchair user or not.

In conclusion…

Some day I want to see a show that does the “no filler episodes” thing from the opposite direction. Just a whole season worth of low-stakes character pieces that seem to move the overall story absolutely nowhere, then episode 26 pulls all the triggers at once and this massive Rube Goldberg machine of a plot the show’s been quietly setting up in the background the whole time hits you like a truck.

[v3rb4tim]

Incredible one-liners as always

[llywela13]

Season one of Primeval was a bit like this. An entire season of low-stakes adventure-of-the-week shenanigans, and then in the season finale this sudden, creeping sense of dread as you start to realise what’s going on and what’s been set up, and how inescapable that doom is, and the only question is: which of the team will be the one to die? It has to be one of them, we know that, because it already happened, we have already seen the aftermath, we just didn’t know it at the time. It was a great twist.

S1 of Babylon 5, anyone?

[thethirdromana]

OK, I was already looking forward to watching Babylon 5, but now I am even more looking forward to watching Babylon 5.

[animate-mush]

GOOD POINT

[dareduffie]

when will people learn that live-action remakes will never be good as their original animated counterparts because the glory of animation is the colour, movement, and fantasy that's just untranslateable to live-action
