@jokingmars
the people who animated akira definitely had astigmatism
“explain”
wait whats wrong with the pics
you mean everyone don’t see the streaks……?
this is the funniest intro to any johnny bravo episode
honestly my dream is to not be famous myself, but to be married to a famous person purely so i could go to events full of other famous people and pretend i’ve never heard of any of them. i would love to watch the look on leonardo di caprio’s face as i ask him what he does for a living and, when he incredulously tells me he’s an actor, take a sip of my drink and ask, “and how’s that working out for you?”
i know none of you will believe me but my sister sincerely did this to paul mccartney
Harley is a gift from God.
This is why Harley is like my all time favorite!
Why did they leave out the best part of this scene?;
The character development of Harley is probably one of the better things DC has done with their characters.
That last line :((((
There is more:
The fact that she actually had a plausible reason for the muzzle makes this even better.
superhero comic done right
Also? I dont want anyone who wants to be able to murder people with no repercussions to carry a firearm. I mean, I dont really want cops to exist at all but like especially that kind
And it’s not like this is a unique thing.
I’m an aircraft engineer and mechanic. If I leave a solvent bottle open, and an FAA or EPA inspector happens by, I get fined $10,000. If I lose a tool and don’t immediately report it, I get fired. If I notice one of my coworkers doing something wrong and fail to immediately correct it or report it, I go to jail and never work in aerospace again.
A group of mechanics were sentenced to death in 1985 for using the wrong splice plate in a bulkhead repair eight years prior, resulting in the plane crashing and killing 520 people.
I am shielded by nothing other than a paper trail a mile thick showing me constantly, meticulously, and doggedly adhering to every regulation and policy to the best of my ability. I can’t claim that I didn’t know something was illegal or incorrect; it’s my job to know that stuff, and I’m required to refuse to perform work if I’m not absolutely certain that I will be able to do so correctly.
Contrast this with the police in my city: they are trained for six weeks, and then are able to beat, strangle, shoot, or stab a person based on nothing more than their “fear for their life” and the fact that the specific situation in question had not been found to be unconstitutional. There is no requirement that the cops perform their duties to the best of their ability, there is no punishment for failing to be immediately candid about their actions or their coworkers’ actions, and there is no effort to keep bad actors out of the industry. And they make more than I do, for a job that is less dangerous and less difficult.
chasing god.
layers of fear is a scary game
lordy i haven’t laughed this hard in a good while
The Roomba That Screams When it Bumps Into Stuff
Black Horror Writers
Feeling a sudden desire, for whatever reason, to add some diversity to your bookshelf? Want to put a few bucks in the pockets of authors of color? Here’s a sampler platter to get you started.
Tananarive Due A film historian and a hot name in horror fiction, Due is an outspoken academic and prolific author. Start with The Good House, a 2003 Gothic, if you’re a fan of haunted house stories.
Wrath James White A former athlete, White is a hugely prolific author of hardcore horror. You can start with The Resurrectionist, but honestly, with more than 35 books to choose from, you’ve got plenty of options.
Victor LaValle LaValle has only written four novels so far, but they’re well-regarded and rich narratives. The Changeling is the usual recommendation for a starting place.
Brandon Massey Southern Gothic themes woven through horror, suspense and urban themes - that’s Massey’s brand in a nutshell. He’s plenty prolific, so you’ve got a bunch to choose from. Maybe start with this year’s new release, The Quiet Ones.
Chesya Burke A prolific short story writer, Burke writes speculative fiction and comic books. If you’d like a collection of stories all in one place, try out Let’s Play White. If you’d rather do a novel, read The Strange Crimes of Little Africa.
Jemiah Jefferson Do you like pulpy erotic vampire horror? You don’t have to answer that. Just buy Jefferson’s books if you do. There’s a series, so you’ll want to start at the beginning with Voice of the Blood.
Michael Boatman An actor and screenwriter, Boatman is also a novelist. He writes splatterpunk that Joe Lansdale has praised, which is as fine an accolade as they come. The Revenant Road was his first novel. He also shows up in a ton of anthologies, so keep an eye out.
Helen Oyeyemi Oyeyemi is a rising star, Shirley Jackson Award finalist, scholar, a world traveler, among other things. Her most recent book, Gingerbread, came out in 2019. I think it would not be out of line to compare her to Angela Carter.
Maurice Carlos Ruffin A debut novelist, Ruffin’s work launched with a bang in February. His book We Cast a Shadow was long-listed for a stack of prizes, and as a scathing cultural sci-fi horror, it fits right in with the work of folks like Jordan Peele.
Nnedi Okorafor A Nigerian-American writer, Okorafor writes for both children and adults, and her stories have earned a whole stack of awards. She is, for the record, also disabled. She’s got a whole stack of YA and adult books to choose from, as well as comic books. Binti and its sequel are as good a place as any to start, though.
Jewelle Gomez Philanthropist, playwright, poet, author – Gomez dabbles in a lot of things, and she’s an outspoken voice for LGBTQ women of color. Check out The Gilda Stories if you’ve always wanted to read about a black lesbian vampire (and, let’s be honest, who hasn’t?)
PS: When you order, don’t waste your money on Amazon. Instead, use a service like https://bookshop.org/ that distributes your hard-earned cash to independent booksellers. Keep money in your community.
PPS: I love Toni Morrison and Octavia Butler and also left them off the list because they’re well-known already and because I think it’s really important right now to support living artists, but you should check out their work too.

oh my fucking god
I just read this whole thing on instagram and it sure is a very very wild emotional roller coaster ride 😂
Batman @ Robin:
GOD I found another article about why ADHD kids say “I don’t know” so much. my entire childhood was getting yelled at for doing some ADHD shit and me not being able to offer an explanation when asked why I did something.
Adding to this, its cause of our executive dysfunction and emotional dysregulation (naturally there’s more things at play than just these two but I’m naming main aspects).
We tend to have alexithymia, meaning we have difficulty identifying and describing own feelings.
You can’t say how you feel if you legit don’t know.
Self monitoring is an executive function; our self awareness about how we are doing presently .. which is hampered in ADHDers.
You can’t say what you think if you legit don’t know.
oh my god
Of fucking course there’s a word for it.
Also,
Of fucking course it’s because of ADHD.
That text is from the book “Driven to Distraction” by Edward M Hallowell M.D. and John J. Ratey M.D.
Has some amazing case studies on ADHD, and is a very cathartic read for someone diagnosed as an adult.
Thank you so much for adding a source to this! In general any book by M.D. Hallowell or by Dr. Russell Barkley is a sound bet for a good book on adhd that’s incredibly validating!
Malignant compliance is an effective tool to keep in obese quiver
It’s more commonly known as “work-to-rule” and here’s a great story about one case of its successful use.
https://libcom.org/blog/work-rule-11052014
“The day after Starbucks workers met at the Bat Cave we found ourselves working an understaffed morning shift but this time it was different. Instead of feeling the normal frustration, those of us who were at the meeting exchanged knowing glances and began implementing our plan of following every rule, thereby slowing down service. We also whispered to partners who were not in the know to slow down, don’t kill yourself. It was as if everyone took a deep breath and began working at a safe and thorough pace. The effects were instant. The speed of service dropped immediately. We ran out of brewed coffee because we were only brewing when the beeper signaled it was time. Everyone stayed in the positions they were assigned and acted only at the directions of the Store Manager. Every 10 minutes when someone was assigned to clean the lobby, we did a thorough job, ensuring everything was clean and properly stocked. Every drink and food order was perfect.
Dan, the Store Manager, lost his mind.”
Also sometimes referred to as “malicious compliance”, and it’s my favorite thing
please read the best twitter story i’ve seen all week
dammit I’m compelled to reblog a Twitter thread.
This deserves another reblog. At 5 am while I can’t sleep.
