Being gay is natural? Okay.

You have three islands. Divide them into groups of one. The straight island, the gay island, and the lesbian island. The straight island is going to reproduce and keep going strong for millions of generations to come. The gay and lesbian islands will both wipe out in not even one century. This isn’t just about religion or morals, it’s just simple common sense. Being gay is unnatural, and not just because God said so, but because you yourself wouldn’t even be born without a REAL natural man and woman. And no, there is no such thing as a lesbian bone marrow “thing” to have children. That’s a biased fact that came from a lesbian scientist who has false opinions. If it’s not a real penis or vagina, then it’s fucking false and you’re just opinionated by dumb facts. I’m done here. Read over what I said and if you still think that being gay is normal and natural, then I hope you achieve some common sense one day. Bye

Where is this gay island located.. asking for a friend

[queercakes]

I just have SO MANY questions. Why were we all separated onto different islands? Did the government sanction this? If so, why? Why didn’t we revolt against this tyrannical government? Where are these islands? How were they chosen? Are the continents of the world abandoned? What kind of resources are on each island? Are they the same or different? Does each island have a right to form its own government or does the government that segregated us still rule? If so, what island do they rule from and how do they communicate with the other two islands? If they can communicate with the other two islands, can all three islands communicate with each other? If the straight people keep reproducing, won’t their island become overpopulated and their resources depleted? Islands only have so much space right? Do straight people stop having gay kids? Isn’t it a fact that, to date, straight people are the largest manufacturers of gay kids? If a gay kid is born on straight island, do they get sent to their appropriate island? Wouldn’t that aid in the re-population of gay and lesbian island? What about people who are attracted to more than one gender? Are they just lost at sea, floating aimlessly? Is the ocean full of listless pansexuals, floating nowhere? Or are they trapped in some sort of purgatory because they don’t fit on any one island? Are there trees on lesbian island? Is it conceivable that if there were, a large group of lesbians could build a boat? Have you ever seen lesbians around timber? If they built a boat, could they travel to gay island? How far apart are the islands? If they could travel to gay island, would they be able to collect semen, return to lesbian island, and repopulate the island? Would they be able to send some of those children to gay island? Do trans people exist in this world? If so, wouldn’t they be able to aid in repopulation? If the lesbians decided to declare war on the heterosexuals, would they be able to reach their island? On the way to heterosexual island, could the lesbians pick up the gays and scoop the floating bisexuals from the sea? If so, would they all be able to go and attack heterosexual island together, wiping out its people’s, stealing its children and taking all its resources? Does this fantasy world get you off at night? Please write back soon!

*random ace just floating away into the sky like a balloon*

[jezunya]

I am so here for an asexual sky nation. We live in floating cities and master the wind currents. Newly minted ace youths are sent up to us in baskets suspended under hot air balloons. We breed giant birds to bear us through the skies, or else build ourselves wings and gliders to fly in their midst. The only land we know are the tallest mountain peaks and the world is a bright blue gem spreading out beneath us.

(And we will of course be providing air support for the impending attack on Straight Island)

[lectorel]

You spend part of your time on lesbian island, learning the stories, and traditions, and part of your time in the vast floating asexual cities, training with your eagle so that you can one day become one of the chosen few: the messengers, who carry letters and passengers between islands, jumping the heterosexual blockades. When you enter this select group, you’re assigned the job of collecting reports from spies pretending to heterosexual on straight island, flying in at the dead of night, risking discovery to collect vital intelligence. You fall in love with a pansexual girl who’s chosen to hide her orientation so she can aid the Resistance. At the climax of the novel, you swoop down from above on your giant eagle to rescue your lady love from a frenzied mob. As straight island burns in the background, you share a chaste kiss and cuddle while discussing the possibility of a mountain-top pansexual outpost.

Cosplay Wings (tutorial)

After much time finally got this done! I made this tutorial for those who want to cosplay w/ feathered wings but don’t have the money to buy professionally made ones. I’ve seen a few pairs online go for more than 100 dollars, so I’m here to show you how to make your own wings!

Ok so we’ll need some supplies before we start.

I bought all of the material (not including hot glue, scissors, and wire cutters) at my local craft store for under 30 dollars.

Be sure to get foam sheets, feathers, and ribbon in the same color. The size of you foam sheet should be big enough to fit one wing.

Also, don’t underestimate the amount of feathers you need!!! I’ve made this mistake and it’s not fun!

Also make sure you have a pattern of what you want your wing shape to be. I’ve sketched out some references, but you can find my printable templates here: http://tumblr-is-better.blogspot.com/2015/05/printable-wing-template.html

After figuring out what I would like, I drew the bigger pattern onto my foam. Trace and cut.

Pretty flimsy, right? Here’s how to add more stability:

I placed the wire on the edge of the foam sheet for one wing. Then I added hot glue over the top of the wire and cover it with the ribbon. This helps by covering up the wire so it doesn’t poke while being worn, and so that the wire stays put. It also makes for a nice place to glue feathers over.

It doesn’t have to be neat, since there will be feathers over it.

Save your scraps of foam.

From the scraps, I cut out two identical ovals. The length of each should be the same as the base of each wing. 

I attached them to the wing, and added wire and ribbon around the edge. This base for the wings works better than making the wings as one piece. The base should sit right on your shoulder blades, making the wings look a lot more realistic.

Make sure they are attached at a slant, ribbon facing the inside. The side with the ribbon will be the inside or the “front” of the wing.

If the area where the wing attaches to the oval is flimsy and doesn’t stay in place (which is totally normal) bend a piece of wire into an “L” shape and glue it onto the part of the wing that slants downwards. Don’t forget to cover it in ribbon as well! (Sorry for bad lighting)

Now the time consuming part.. Feathers! I used an assortment of different sized feathers. Always start from the bottom layers and work your way up to the top.

Don’t cover the base with feathers. That will be done later.

Bend the wire in the wings to shape them how ever you like!

As for attaching the wings together, you will need elastic. I used clear elastic so the bands in between the wings were not visible. It turned out pretty well, but you might want to find fabric elastic that fits the color of your costume (if you’re wearing one) because clear elastic tends to break easily and it never lays flat. 

I measured the distance between my shoulder blades. The wings do not have to rest on your shoulder blades, if they need be elsewhere, it will still work.

I cut two holes through the base using scissors and an exacto knife in the places that best fit my liking. Be sure that both holes on the first wing match up with the other wing. The holes should be directly through the ribbon, and behind the wire. 

I did the same for the arm bands, but I made the holes farther apart.

When stringing the elastic through, don’t underestimate how much it can stretch. It’s better to have it shorter in the place between wings, so don’t be afraid.

Once through, I secured the elastic like so. If you’re using clear elastic put a layer of glue over the top of it. Clear elastic doesn’t stick to hot glue by itself. :/

Before attaching the arm bands, I measure the distance from my shoulder blade, around my arm, and back to the shoulder blade.

After the elastic is in and attached, I continued to cover the base with feathers.

Largest wings that I’ve made with this technique had a six foot wingspan. You can make these as big as you’d like.

I also didn’t give exact measurements since everyone’s will be different!

And done!

The Best-Selling Nintendo Games of All Time

In honor of the release of the highly anticipated Super Mario Maker just a few days ago, we’re giving away a Nintendo Wii U! Click here to enter for your chance to win the console, as well as two games: Super Mario 3D World and Nintendo Land, from September 14 - 16.

We’re big Nintendo fans at RIPT Apparel, so we decided to look back on the history of the company’s best-selling games.

Nintendo Entertainment System, (NES): Super Mario Bros

Release Year: 1985

Copies Sold to Date: 40.24 Million

The first version of the Mario Bros. franchise is considered one of the best (if not the best) games of all time, period. It consistently ranks first on IGN’s Top 100 List due to its “remaining one of the most pioneering and influential titles to date.”

Honorable Mentions: Duck Hunt, Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario Bros. 2, Tetris, The Legend of Zelda

Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES): Super Mario World

Release Year: 1990

Copies Sold to Date: 20.6 Million

The revamped Super Mario World marked the first appearance of Yoshi, and is considered a huge commercial success. It was re-released four times due to the huge amount of success, and is still available for download on the Wii U Virtual Console.

Honorable Mentions: Donkey Kong Country, Super Mario Kart, Street Fighter II: The World Warrior, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong’s Quest

Nintendo 64: Super Mario 64

Release Year: 1996

Copies Sold to Date: 11.89 Million

The N64 gave us the chance to play in 3D like we never had before. This game revolutionized 3D gameplay, and successfully updated the Italian plumber gamers knew and loved. This game is also considered a classic by Nintendo fans.

Honorable Mentions: Mario Kart 64, GoldenEye 007, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Super Smash Bros, Pokémon Stadium.

GameCube: Super Smash Bros: Melee

Release Year: 2001

Copies Sold to Date: 7.09 Million

Let’s take all of the best characters in the Nintendo universe, and pit them against each other in a huge brawl! The first version of the Super Smash Bros. series debuted in 1999 for the N64, but its younger brother for GameCube had a much bigger budget and became the best-selling game for that console. This was also the first time players used discs instead of plastic cartridges.

Honorable Mentions: Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, Super Mario Sunshine, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Luigi’s Mansion, Animal Crossing

Wii: Wii Sports

Year Released: 2006

Copies Sold to Date: 82.69 Million

This may be considered cheating, considering Wii Sports came with every new Wii console. That doesn’t defeat the fact that for the first time, you could actively create and play sports as your own avatar. This game made us think we were actually good at bowling, only to be severely disappointed by our distinct lack of spin on the ball in real life.

Honorable Mentions: Mario Kart Wii, Wii Sports Resort, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Wii Play, Wii Fit

Wii U: Mario Kart 8

Year Released: 2014

Copies Sold to Date: 5.43 Million

The 8th installment in the Mario Kart franchise was released a little over a year ago, and remains the console’s best-selling game. Just a few days ago, Nintendo released a Wii U console with the game preloaded!

Honorable Mentions: Nintendo Land, New Super Mario Bros. U, Super Mario 3D World, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, New Super Luigi U

researching 17th century piracy tonight. came across this:

One popular pastime amongst pirates was the mock trial.  Each man played a part be it jailer, lawyer, judge, juror, or hangman.  This sham court arrested, tried, convicted, and “carried out” the sentence to the amusement of all. (x)

how widespread could this have really been? how would it have gotten passed from ship to ship? can you imagine a pirate crew at a tavern, bragging to another pirate crew about how good they are at playing pretend? why was their go-to game “legal system”? were they performing incisive satire? is this some sort of pirates-only inside joke that’s been lost to the ages?

[idiopathicsmile]

update: the mock-charge in the mock-trial was piracy

they used to pretend to try each other for piracy

as a stress relief

[roachpatrol]

ok but it’s got to have been a lot of fun to be the pirate defense lawyer, for the pirate accused of piracy, to attempt to argue to the pirate judge, in front of a jury of pirate peers, that your client could not possibly be a pirate

[necromancier-deactivated2019120]
