Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind by Matías Bergara *
An action being “punishable by a fine” basically means “legal for rich people”.
Oh wow. That’s…
This is why all fines should be income based. They should carry the EXACT same weight of punishment to anyone who commits the act. That way poor folk aren’t bankrupted into desperation or jail by a minor offense and rich people can’t get away with shit.
Like they do in, for example, Finland.
Finland, Home of the $103,000 Speeding Ticket
Reima Kuisla, a Finnish businessman, was recently caught going 65 miles per hour in a 50 zone in his home country—an offense that would typically come with a fine of a couple hundred dollars, at most, in the U.S. But after Finnish police pulled Kuisla over, they pinged a federal taxpayer database to determine his income, consulted their handbook, and arrived at the amount that he was required to pay: €54,000.
The fine was so extreme because in Finland, some traffic fines, as well as fines for shoplifting and violating securities-exchange laws, are assessed based on earnings—and Kuisla’s declared income was €6.5 million per year. Exorbitant fines like this are infrequent, but not unheard of: In 2002, a Nokia executive was fined the equivalent of $103,000 for going 45 in a 30 zone on his motorcycle, and the NHL player Teemu Selanne incurred a $39,000 fine two years earlier.
“This is no constitutionally governed state,” one Finn who was fined nearly $50,000 moaned to The Wall Street Journal, “This is a land of rhinos!” Outrage among the rich—especially nonsensical, safari-invoking outrage—might be a sign that something fair is at work.
This is than perfect way to produce fines which are fair to all
remember being little and thinking dandelions were fun or a pretty color or something and every adult in an 80 mile radius wouldn’t let you say that without screaming ITS A WEED
also like:
dandelions are edible, easy to grow, and are rich in vitamins a, c, k, beta-carotene, calcium, iron, manganese, and potassium
dandelions can be made into wine, tea, soft drinks, and a coffee substitute
they are used in herbal remedies to treat liver and digestive problems and as a diuretic
they’re good for bees!
they make good companion plants for various herbs and tomatoes; their long taproot helps bring up nutrients in the soil and they release ethylene gas which ripens fruit
dandelions secrete latex which means they can be used to make natural rubber
they make great flower crowns
To expand on dandelions and bees
The reason they are good for bees is because dandelions are one of the first flowers to open, come spring, which means they are the first fresh food for the local bees!
Dandelions cohabitate with clover really well! Dandelions flower and drop seed just in time for clover to flower and drop seed in time for the dandelions to flower a second time. Bees love both of these flowers!
We keep a 15x15 dandelion/clover garden for our bees, with a water station, and it’s always covered in honeybees in the early spring!
Sometimes, it was their "way of relieving stress."
How ba-a-a-ad can it be
Juice by Lizzo would be as big as Uptown Funk if society didn’t hate fat black women
If you haven’t seen the video, go give it some love, she is so talented and this song is so good omg
uptown funk has nothing on this bop
Okay but honestly ya, this song is a fucking bop and is so much better than uptown funk or finesse. It’s just a feel good in your skin type of song.
I had high expectations and this exceeded them wildly.
Love this song and love Lizzo

Are we forgetting something? (Contains spoilers for Steven Universe Battle of Heart and Mind)
Blue looked hurt that Yellow had flat up tried to poof her. She stood up for Steven against Yellow and while they were fighting, I don’t think she truly wanted to harm Yellow. And Yellow just straight up tried to poof her.
She looked lost, hurt and probably even slightly confused. Someone had pointed out that due to her depressed mourning for Pink after her “Shattering”, that she’s the weak link in the Diamond Authority, and it turns out, she was. Steven got through to her when she had attacked him with her ball of depression (I’m going to call it that, since it’s a ball and her powers are depression/emotions) and it seems that she might be thinking to meet with Yellow and White (as of now that White is out of her own head) to readdress their laws, as Yellow and White have had a cold slap of reality to see that what they had done for eons have all been useless, just useless and pathetic really. They weren’t happy, so they continued. Sounds familiar? That’s because they’re flawed, deluding themselves to believe they are superior beings.
Just like us.
Just like humans.
And look how Blue comforts Yellow after Yellow lets her façade just collapse.
Yellow had always been there for her, and now she’s there for Yellow.
Openly.
And they smile openly at each other.
I mean, we’ve seen slight smiles here and there during Season 5 from our Tyrannical Dork Mothers™, but this just puts frosting on the cake. It must have hurt Yellow when she realized she was hurting Blue, even though she made a valid point of Blue using her powers on Yellow (probably by accident) . I mean, look.
Even though she’s attacking Blue after saying that she (Blue) had hurt a fellow Diamond (herself) straight up for pointing out that they’re all hurting, that they hurt Pink for ages, that they hurt their Gems and that Blue had been hurting. Yellow is in pain.
She’s in pain because she’s hurting Blue.
She cares for Blue.
And that was hurting her.
It was hurting so much that she closed her eyes as she attacked Blue.
And Blue is in physical pain as well as emotional.
The look of pain, the haunted look of someone who knows she had hurt someone she loves, and they had hurt her even more and she’s lost. She doesn’t know what to do. And Steven goes even further to ask Yellow if it looked perfect to her.
Blue’s struggling to stand. She’s barely off her side on the bridge. But she reaches out for Yellow. What made them both happy?
“Their” Pink.
Their Pink, and each other.
And she’s broken, Yellow is as broken emotionally as Blue. They’re in pain. Yellow had always tried to keep her composure, whereas Blue was open about her pain.
And Yellow was in tears.
And then it was Blue’s turn to comfort her. And she did.
They’re married, and no one can tell me otherwise. They’re always there for each other, letting the other know they’re there through small touches, like on the back, or shoulders, simple hand holding. Hugging.

YA’LL....
Mainstream Media Now Openly Reporting on the Elite Lining Up to Ingest the Blood of Children…. Seriously
Once the talk of conspiracy theorists — the rich ingesting the blood of the young to foster longevity — is now a reality and an actual business in the United States. Not only is it a business but billionaires are actually admitting their interest in it. Now, even the mainstream media is reporting it.
Peter Thiel, the billionaire co-founder of PayPal and adviser to Donald Trump told Inc. magazine:
“I’m looking into parabiosis stuff, which I think is really interesting. This is where they did the young blood into older mice and they found that had a massive rejuvenating effect. I think there are a lot of these things that have been strangely under-explored.”
As Vanity Fair reports, Ambrosia, which buys its blood from blood banks, now has about 100 paying customers. Some are Silicon Valley technologists, like Thiel, though Karmazin stressed that tech types aren’t Ambrosia’s only clients and that anyone over 35 is eligible for its transfusions.
Aside from the gruesome historical and occult background of such practices, there is literally NO DATA that suggests the process even works.
“There‘s just no clinical evidence [that the treatment will be beneficial], and you‘re basically abusing people‘s trust and the public excitement around this,” Stanford University neuroscientist Tony Wyss-Coray, who conducted a 2014 study of young blood plasma in mice, told Science magazinelast summer, as reported by Vanity Fair.

Fucking yikes wtf
Before Steven was born Amethyst used to say ‘fuck’ all the time & so when he was a baby Greg had to sit her down and explain that she has to stop swearing around Steven because he’s young & impressionable
So Amethyst is like “but that’s my favourite word, when will be stop being young & impressionable so I can say it again??”
And Greg is like “uhh I don’t know, 15 I guess? 15 is probably old enough”
“Got it”
flash forward to Steven’s fifteenth birthday and he is woken at dawn by Amethyst yelling “wake the FUCK up Steven it’s FUCKING TIME”
& he spends the entire day losing his mind
Steven: w-what’s happening
Garnet: *deadpan* Amethyst just got her favourite word back
Amethyst: *running around the house* FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK

Amethyst: you said once Steven was 15 I could say fuck again
Greg, who only hazily recalls the conversation in question: ……i DID?
Amethyst: *runs outside* FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK *distant sounds of spooked birds*
Pearl: Steven the *whispering* F-word is a bad word that Amethyst USED to say before-
Steven: I know what fuck means Pearl
Amethyst: *stopping dead in her tracks* WHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATT??
Pearl: who taught you that word mister!!
Steven: um… Lars and Sadie… *mumbling* five years ago…
Amethyst: I’ve been denying myself my favourite word for FIVE YEARS for NOTHING??
Greg: uh even if he knows what it means it’s still not really appropriate for you t-
Amethyst: *running outside* FFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCK
Steven: …
Greg: …
Pearl: …
Garnet: …*quietly* fuck
Everyone else: O_O
Garnet: what. I missed it too

From Wikipedia:
Nuestra Señora de la Santa Muerte (Spanish for Our Lady of Holy Death), often shortened to Santa Muerte, is a female deity or folk saint in Mexican and Mexican-American folk Catholicism. A personification of death, she is associated with healing, protection, and safe delivery to the afterlife by her devotees. Despite condemnation by the Catholic Church, her cult has become increasingly prominent since the 2000s.
The worship of Santa Muerte is condemned by the Catholic Church in Mexico as invalid, but it is increasingly firmly entrenched in Mexican culture.
Santa Muerte is also seen as a protector of homosexual, bisexual, and transgender communities in Mexico, since many are considered to be outcast from society. Many LGBT people ask her for protection from violence, hatred, disease, and to help them in their search for love.
Her intercession is commonly invoked in same-sex marriage ceremonies performed in Mexico. The Iglesia Católica Tradicional México-Estados Unidos, also known as the Church of Santa Muerte, recognizes gay marriage and performs religious wedding ceremonies for homosexual couples.
Man how did I not know about this magical gay skeleton queen until today?
