"I'm not kidnapping the children! They are volunteers for my cybernetic experiments! The parents are just mad they didn't read the fine print! Look at Little Timmy! He's having so much fun with the grappling hand I gave him!"
my favorite thing paul does in interviews is when he mentions a beatles song and then starts singing it to make sure people know it, like he'll say "we were performing she loves you, you know 'she loves you yeah yeah yeah...'" like you literally don't have to do that. everyone knows that song. you are paul mccartney
My personal favorite is when he goes to tell and a story and he prefaces it with "you know, john and I- john lennon and I-" like yeah no we know that. we know who john is. you are the beatles
No, no, let him do it. I appreciate the clarification, and so will future historians.
are ya winning son
Trying to figure out how one dresses in Las Vegas when the expected temps are as high as 111 F but you also want to look cute and wear something from the neglected side of the closet has been proving surprisingly difficult.
DNI if you've ever:
Been to Greenland
Been to Denver
Buried treasure in St. Louis (or St. Paul for that matter)
Been to Moscow
Been to Tampa
Been to Boston (only if you went during the fall, though)
Hoisted a mainstay
Swabbed a poop deck
Veered to starboard
You know what just DNI if you've ever sailed at all
Walked a gangplank
Owned a parrot (I shouldn't have to explain this one)
Been to Boston in the fall (cannot overstate this)
Okay, but what if I've never plucked a rooster and I'm not too good at ping-pong, and I've never thrown my mashed potatoes up against the wall, and I've never kissed a chipmunk and I've never gotten head lice, and I've never been to Boston in the fall?
You're safe
That elderly couple who volunteers at the soup kitchen after church on Sundays and attends every town hall meeting has done more community direct action than 99% of internet leftists 🤷🏽♀️
#lol this post is stupid spup kitchens were created by the gov after they literally destroyed black radical organizers lives#and since when does going to a town hall meeting and working within the system help anybody in any significant way
100% agree homeless people should just starve and dumpster dive till le epic revolution happens!
and for sure local politics is so stupid it only handles dumb things like your schoolboard, judges, infrastructure, and rent laws! now tweets? Thats where the real work happens!
Local activism stopped garbage collection from being privatized in my hometown and local activism is what defunds the police and keeps libraries and community gardens open and gets done most of the things people waiting around for a revolution claim they want. The weird former hippie suburban wine moms donating bags of quinoa chips and money to the food pantry I go to sometimes have done more for me materially then any defeatist political rant on tumblr ever has.
#local politics#so many people saying local elections won’t do anything for police brutality#when a lot of places in the US elect their sherrif!#and judges!#and all the other people in charge of the police!#but no I’m just a filthy moderate for suggesting we use EVERY tool at our disposal to improve the state of things (tags via @sofiadragon)
do you think two pennies is still enough for the ferryman or has inflation driven up the fare
if he makes me use an app I am simply not crossing the river Styx.
after a lifetime of hearing about aragorn but not reading the books or watching the movies, genuinely nothing could have prepared me for his actual introduction. the hobbits picked this man out of a dumpster. he is a textbook softspoken angst prince and he is covered in dirt and he probably smells so bad. he’s the coolest man alive and is so casual about it. his number one skill is Knowing Where They Are and his number two skill is Having A Horrible Destiny That Torments Him. tolkien got it in one i’m afraid aragorn son of arathorn you are the guy of all time
And then the movies went and understood the assignment by casting Viggo Mortensen.
Described by legendary fight choreographer and Olympic fencer Bob Anderson as “the best swordsman I’ve ever trained”, and insisted on using a real steel sword to get the movement right. Actually bonded with the horses he rode and worked with over the course of filming. Was noted by cast members as being the natural leader of the actors when they were together. Went hiking and fishing in full costume for the sake of authenticity, even repairing damage to the costumes himself to better convey the life of a self-reliant ranger. Actually learned Sindarin, and speaks it more frequently in the films than any other character including the elves. Is an actual polyglot, speaking four languages fluently and having a passing knowledge of six more. Personally composed and performed music for the soundtrack.
They needed someone to play the guy of all time, and they actually GOT the guy of all time.
Didn't just bond with the horses, he bought the horse that played Brego after the movie. (He also bought the horse that Arwen's stunt double rode for her.)
During the fight with the orcs at the end of Fellowship, one of the orcs is meant to throw a knife at Aragorn. There was a mix-up with the props and the orc actor threw an actual knife instead of the blunt prop. Mortensen casually managed to block it with his sword anyway.
As well as hand-repairing his costume, he also was the one who suggested Aragorn have a small bow for hunting, since he lived in the wilderness and would need one. No one else had thought of it.
It was also his suggestion to take Boromir's arm guards and make everyone cry.
He and Peter Jackson once had a whole conversation where Jackson called him 'Aragorn'. Neither of them noticed for about half an hour.
Also, you might not know this, but Viggo was so committed to method acting he broke two toes when kicking that helmet. Very obscure fact.
A species of animal will be generally okay with you, if you have a tattoo of them
The party is walking through the woods, and a group of bears atack everyone, except the one who has a bear tattoo somewhere
yay i'm safe from godzillas - paper
Wouldn't this lead to an industry of people getting as many animal tattoos as possible? And scientific experiments regarding how small of a tattoo counts, and if stylized depictions are okay, and if a tattoo of a golden retriever works for all dogs or just the specific breed, and...

Happy World Ocean Day! The ocean has been perfecting 🪼 this 🪼 design for more than 500 million years. That's right, sea jellies are older than the dinosaurs! They have adapted to our entire world ocean: from tropical to Arctic temperatures, deep sea to shallow reefs, and freshwater to saltwater, jellies are found in every ocean environment.
Through research and dedication to maintaining the highest standards of care for these animals, the Aquarium of the Pacific has successfully cultured over 40 species of sea jellies. The culmination of years of commitment to these animals has resulted in our newest exhibit, ✨Jelly Dreamscapes✨, which showcases the beauty and tranquility of these gelatinous creatures.
“they’re just looking at each other” you could not begin to understand the complexities involved in looking at each other
I know, it's the autism.
it's crazy that you used to be able to look up specific clips from a tv show on youtube. now regardless of your search terms you get 6 unrelated promo reels from the show's official account, 6 unrelated clips of literally anything else youtube thinks you might click on, 6 unrelated promo reels from the network's official account, 6 more completely arbitrary recommendations, 6 show trailers and publicity videos of the actors by content mills called 'pop glutton' and 'comedy chunk' and finally raw gameplay footage of a mobile freemium slots game and a video essay called Liberals Can't Belive It: 10 Times Hitler Was Shockingly Woke
you know the internet is dying when you can't even search glup shitto funniest moments and find a single relevant result
our data wizards crunched the numbers, and they discovered something truly incredible: users spend up to 10x longer on the website when they can't find what the fuck they came looking for
you joke but this is literally what google realised and changed with google search and youtube.
Wanna listen to this story instead? Check out this week's Better Offline podcast, "The Man That Destroyed Google Search," available on Apple
profit projections looked like it wasn’t going to be infinite growth for a quarter, and so the head of ads ousted one of the founders and implemented drastic measures to increase search queries. these measures were: making their services worse. this is NOT an exaggeration. it’s actually crazy how anti-consumer google is as a company now.
