Ive reached that point in teaching where im this close to writing “Daaaaaamn boi!” next to a really good bit in a student’s paper

[grootguardians]

I love the huge cultural differences in Space Marvel™… Asgardians like speak in iambic pentameter and use beatiful, eloquent words and then the guardians are like “y'all’d'nt’ve'f'i'dn’ve!”

[grootguardians]

Loki: our cruel and terrible sister, Hela, Goddess of Death, emerged from the unknown and brought upon our land a storm of suffering and chaos, the likes of which have never been previously known to civil creatures

Rocket: anyway this dickhead Taserface threw me in his pirate-ship prison cell lmao it was nasty

[grootguardians]

Valkyrie, Lady Sif: we are classically trained, elite, and highly effective warriors, who are equal parts dignified, celebrated, and feared

Nebula: lmao what if I cut off my own hand - oh my god I’m gonna do it, watch this

[grootguardians]

Thor: welcome to Asgard, the most beautiful and prosperous of all the nine realms!

Peter: here’s our ship, it’s tiny and disgusting but it’s all we have, we love it

[dogpawsswapgod]

Heimdall: Never before has an intruder slipped past me. I want to know how.

Drax: *laughing loudly w his head thrown back* If you kept your floors dry the intruder would not have slipped on his way past you!

[magick-missile]

Hela: Tremble before me, Asgard, as I usher in the dawning of a new age! We shall once again become the conquerors of the universe!

Groot: I am Groot.

otp list 💕  : Damen & Laurent (Captive Prince Trilogy by C.S. Pacat)

“I’m glad you’re here,’ said Laurent. ‘I always thought that I’d have to face my uncle alone.’ He turned to look at Damen, and their eyes met. ‘You’re not alone,’ said Damen. Laurent didn’t answer, but he did give a smile, and reached out to touch Damen, wordlessly.”

May the 4th be with you!

It was ‘Ms. Frizzle’ and not ‘Mrs. Frizzle’ because it was the 90s and the magic school bus lady couldn’t marry her gf yet

[80s-addict]

THIS EXPLAINS SO MUCH

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

Okay but it is Mrs Frizzle now, now that marriage equality is a thing ye? <3

[esser-z]

Okay y'all here’s the thing. Ms Frizzle was voiced by Lily Tomlin, a lesbian. In the new show, she’s being voiced by Kate McKinnon, also a lesbian.

She’s absolutely gay.

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

^ No heterosexual woman could be as powerful as Ms Frizzle

[raedmagdon]

The best part: Kate McKinnon didn’t replace Lily Tomlin as Ms. Frizzle. There are two Ms. Frizzles.

Lily Tomlin still voices the Original Friz, Valerie. Kate McKinnon voices her younger sister, Fiona Frizzle.

THEY ARE BOTH VOICED BY LESBIANS. Not just one, but two gay Ms. Frizzles! Adorable redheaded lesbian science teacher sisters!

[between-stars-and-waves]

:-D

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

What’s better than a magical lesbian?

TWO MAGICAL LESBIANS

THAT LAST FACE

[kharma-chaos]

THE FUNNY THING ABOUT THIS IS

THIS IS LITERALLY THE STORY OF STORY OF THE SEARCH FOR THE POLYMERASE COMPLEX

So they couldn’t find out what protein actually replicated the dna stands

So when they found it, it was actually a complex of proteins, and it was SHAPED LIKE A HAND

And when that fucker works it contracts and releases as if its actively grabbing the dna strand.

Never talk to me or my 42 trees again

[jumpingjacktrash]

it amuses me to see people being surprised/impressed/amused by this setup, because it’s extremely common on the plains. if you don’t plant a windbreak, your heating and cooling bills are huge, and storms do things like throw the lawnmower through the living room window, take the roof off, or cake the entire north side of the house with six inches of solid ice.

evergreens remain bendy even in the coldest weather, so – wait, no, not the coldest. i remember when i was a kid it got down to like -45 and the norway pines around my house were cracking like gunshots as the sap froze.

maples, incidentally, make that noise around -20f, and i hear it at least once every winter here in southern minnesota. but i only ever heard norway pines make it that one time.

so anyway that’s why we plant pine trees around our houses. because otherwise the wind would freaking kill us.

[cameoappearance]

This is informative and perfectly sensible under the circumstances but I also cannot resist the temptation to compare it to planting stuff all around the boundary of your lot in The Sims

My favorite Gordon Ramsay moment is when his food was too slow so he took a jog and then fell asleep

This mindset will make you the kindest you can be

[capturetheatre]

the 2002 broadway revival of into the woods was so unnecessarily extra lmao

[elphabelle-of-the-ball-deactiva]

Watch this whole thing omigosh

[stagemanagerssaygo]

Excuse me, but it was the right amount of extra and all of it was necessary.

[djo-time]

Excuse me but this is what every production of into the woods is like. The movie just did the play dirty

[invaderxan]

Heard some important information on Twitter today, and thought I’d post it here for anyone who may not have heard it. This is actually a thing, devised by human rights organisation called Karma Nirvana.
