Okay so I don't know why people say sex or love is what makes us human. Lots of organisms in nature have sex or mate for life. You know what makes us human? Cooking. Nothing else in nature cooks except humans. Checkmate aphobes. Sincerely, an ace cook.

…

is that true??

Holy shit!!

Not only that, some anthropologists think that cooking is what MADE us human- as in the ability to consume large amounts of EASIER-to-digest calories (with all the pathogens killed off and the tough cell walls broken down) is the thing that allowed us to devote evolutionary energy to growing larger brains, and solidified the beginnings of communal human civilization. Have you seen how many hours a day pandas spend chewing on raw bamboo? Cooking let us take a shortcut so we could evolve in other ways. Especially bread, bc it’s a lot of caloric energy packed into a portable chunk you could take with you for days and days. Also in order to have bread you have to have grain farms, so bread (and beer, also made from grains) sort of catalyzed humans settling down into centralized permanent settlements. So cooking (and eventually farming) didn’t just help us physiologically evolve into our current form, but also shaped our social structures from the beginning. You should watch the Michael Pollan documentary “Cooked,” on Netflix! It’ll rock your world.

in the heights is an example of how to do a movie musical RIGHT

[theheightofdishonor]

My friends and I all agreed that the Piragua Guy/Mr.Softee scene in the ITH opening number had the weirdest vibes. Like “exes-who-ended-on-bad-terms-but-still-occasionally-have-hate-sex” vibes. I don’t know how they managed to get that across in all of 30 sec but

any minute of in the heights >>>>>>> the whole la la land

"In the heights was a beautiful movie in spite of (and often because of) it's differences to the stage show and I thoroughly enjoyed it and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone"

And

"Camilla should never have been cut how dare you"

Are two opinions that can coexist

[cerayanay]

You have two wolves inside of you. One is upset that Pacience y fe ended without the lotto ticket reveal, which undercut the drama of the song and that major plot point of the movie. One is crying because it changes the song to mean abuleas fulfilled dream is having all of her adopted family together and happy.

[i-write-shakespeare-not-disney]

People are just finding things to not like about in the heights instead of enjoying the fact that for fucking once we have a movie that has fun and goes big without having to be about drug cartels and misery and just talks about a community finding home away from home and having dreams like fucking hell shut uppppppp and let people enjoy things fjxjdjxjdjcjjdjxjdnx

There’s a better thing to her story. She CONTINUED her thesis in her underwear and afterward her professor said “what would your mother think wearing those kinds of clothes”

And she responded “my mother’s a feminist also a gender and sexuality studies professor. She’s fine with my shorts”

[kurtwagnermorelikekurtwagnerd]

i think the best part is that a majority of the class also stripped with her in solidarity

[lalaofrp]

Just to give a little more perspective after reading the story:

The sequence of events is a little jumbled in the telling above. The actual chastising from the teacher came days before the woman’s thesis, during a practice run of her presentation. This was not a spur-of-the-moment thing where she just whipped off her clothes for the sake of being angry. Chai took the time to think things through before deciding this was the way she wanted to protest. She used critical thinking and level-headedness to decide instead of becoming volatile and aggressive, she would choose non-violent protest. 

I just don’t like the way the story’s being told by others because it makes her come across as “overly-emotional” and “erratic” (as women often do in the media, because it’s easier to attribute extreme action to “hysteria”), whereas in actual news reports, she had time to think about her decision and choose the best way to handle what happened to her.

I just had some...thoughts... about sticking animal heads on human shoulders. Bear with me.

I think the reason some anthros look really strange (I’m looking at you, Skyrim) is because animal skulls don’t attach to their spines the same way ours do. Our spines and skulls are very vertical, but many animals’ are closer to horizontal.

Some people solve this by giving the animal skulls a human skull shape on the back. But, to me it makes them look somehow bald(??) and just kinda weird in general. If, instead, you change their necks to curve so that the spine still connects where their four legged counterparts’ do, they no longer look yucky! (And also don’t need a hair-do!)

This seems especially applicable for animals like big cats, cows, and lizards — animals whose spines attach very horizontally to their heads.

Anyway, enjoy some more art I did while having these very specific thoughts.
