tiktok sea shanty (cant find it on YouTube but it's one of my favorite videos it's a tumblr post)
do you not feel filled with love?
these are some of the videos I found nd loved
hope they make you smile!
People singing together is part of my cultural identity.
The trailer for MultiVersus which revealed a few more characters to the starting roster in the form of Velma,Taz,and the Iron Giant
So there is a hope for Daphne too?? If I could finally get a good official model of Daphne I would ascend to the heavens as my life is complete
honestly i’ve stopped caring if media is good. all that matters is that Me, The Most Important Person, is having a good time.
Oh shit, are Breekon and Hope fae? They didn't do anything to Breekon until he offered his name and then they literally took it. They used to bring sickness, and you could interpret delivering malicious artifacts as a "prank". The theory of them being connected to butterflies.
Plus the whole changeling-stranger connection. If the Hunt is all monsters that hunt humans, is the Stranger the mischievous creatures that just mess with people and lure them to their death? Close enough to people to lure them closer, but still unsettling, still otherworldly. The Stranger doesn't want to eat you, it wants to invite you to a clearing and make you dance until you die.

I love the moment when he realises that he loves her, that they are star crossed lovers, but he's gonna see this love story to the end anyway. Refreshing after dozens of "we have this past thing I just found out so I'm gonna leave you to protect you without asking for your input at all".
On the 50th Anniversary of Scooby-Doo let us celebrate the musical group of goddesses known as the Hex Girls (x)

About Mulan’s Not Cutting Her Hair
Some of you have been complaining so hard about Mulan not cutting her hair. Please allow me to explain.
THIS.SCENE.IS.SO.WRONG
(although it is poetic cinema, I’ll admit :P)
Ancient Chinese follow the Confucius Principles like gospel. The Emperors also use these principles as the basis of many laws and regulations.
And Confucius sees every part of the body as a gift from your parents, and Chinese people value filialty. Therefore, it’s an unfilial act to cut off your hair, almost a sin really. So the story about a filial daughter with a scene about her committing an act considered unfilial in her time is really inaccurate and doesn’t make any sense.
Everyone. I repeat. EVERYONE, regardless of gender, in Ancient China has long ass hair. Cutting hair short as symbolism of “masculinity” is purely Western ideas. I’ve always cringed at that scene in the animated version.
See how guys in Ancient China has long hair too in Chinese movies?
Not to mention the impracticality of tying hair that short into that high a bun, it doesn’t work. I’m glad this scene is cut out tbh.
This post makes several valid points about Mulan’s famous “hair cutting” scene from the 1998 animation. Thank you! As someone who has long hair, I’d like to share a few personal insights:
I use the traditional “zan（簪）” hairpin to keep my hair in a knot on a daily basis. In reality, the longer my hair is, the easier it is for me to tie the hair into a knot, and to keep the knot intact throughout the day.
The same principle can apply to using ribbons, because a large bun/knot allows the person to tie the ribbon tighter, and the ribbon will not slip.
While I think the original Mulan still has a lot of classic scenes and characters that should be kept in adaptations, the “hair cutting” scene wasn’t very practical or culturally accurate.
It's a Western shorthand, that unfortunately doesn't translate well to Chinese traditions (it was also meant for Western audiences, instead of the Asian market, but the discussion of whether adapting a Chinese legend solely for the Western market is ok is not mine to engage in). The scene symbolizes her not being able to go back on her decision. If she chickens out after cutting her hair, her family and everyone else will know, resulting in her being both humiliated and dishonoured. So she HAS to go join the army, no matter the consequences. I don't think there is a Chinese version of the same thing that would have conveyed that "no way to go but forward" idea to little American kids, so it makes sense why Disney did it, even if they knew it wasn't accurate.
why is it that whenever I am disillusioned with the world I go back to the epic of Gilgamesh
“It is the story of their becoming human together.”
This is it. This is the oldest written literary work that we know of, and it’s a story of becoming human together.
This is a story about love, and it’s a story about death, and we told this story thousands of years ago, THOUSANDS of years. We have always, always, always been wrestling with this profoundly beautiful existence and with knowing one another, while knowing that we all will die and be forgotten.
We become human by loving, but we also become human by knowing death.
And I’m just sitting here touching other human beings, another human experience, from across millennia, feeling a bit more human too through it, and I am trying very hard not to cry.
Listening to my hella homophobic ("keep children away from the gays!"), racist ("n-word just means black, I don't call them that to their face so who cares") and misogynistic ("the feminists are lying to you!") Ancient History professor talk about how great the friendship between Gilgamesh and Enkidu was and just going "duuuuude, you know that hella gay, right?"
(Obviously not dissing platonic friendships, but you can't teach a class on analysing sources and then NOT see the homoerotic implications of a relationship that was so strong that the death of one party sent the other on a quest to beat death)
Every reason people give to why they hated Scoob is why I loved it. Is it a masterpiece? Absolutely not. But it's so much better than what it could have been.
It's not as boring as The New Scooby-Doo Movies. Nor is the celebrity cameo as annoying and long as they were in that show.
It's not as boring as 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo. I know it has it's fans, but want to talk about the gang taking backseat to other characters? This show throws out Velma and Fred and instead focuses on Scrappy, an obnoxious kid character with the worst voice ever, Vincent van Ghoul and two dumb ghost characters. Awesome.
It's not as annoyingly dated as Shaggy and Scooby-Doo Get a Clue! Dick Dastardly is a much better villain than whatever that thing was.
Have you seen the Wrestling movies? If I hadn't had my wrestling phase they would have been basically unwatchable.
Have you seen the direct to DVD/TV live action movies? I haven't because I'm scared of them.
And you know what? I loved the character cameos too. I grew up with Cartoon Network and I want a 3D movie of Wacky Races. Penelope Pitstop is a babe and her image in the credits made me cry.
I went in knowing it was a lead up to a cinematic universe. And let's be real, DeeDee is in the movie simply because it's 2020 and the gang is all white. And that's a good thing! Velma was implied to be latina and that's good too!
I've seen people complain that the people who made Scoob hadn't seen much Scooby-Doo and my question is, have you? Because personally I'd rather rewatch Scoob 25 times than sit through "Guess Who's Knott Coming to Dinner?" just one more time

Tama is boss
THE TRAINS HAVE CARTOON TAMAS ON THEM
Sad update everyone, Tama recently passed away… An estimated 3,000 people, including railway officials, attended Tama the cat’s funeral on Sunday, days after she died of heart failure aged 16. [x]
For those who haven’t read articles about it, the local shrine elevated her to a god. She’s now the Eternal Stationmaster and patron god of the station.
Beautiful.
Now I’m crying thanks
and a new cat was hired right?
yep! her name is Nitama (essentially ”second tama” or “tama II”) and she served under Tama as an apprentice before being appointed her deputy
she works very hard
Everytime this crosses my dash, I reblog. It is the law.
I’m crying at 11pm over train cats
Nitama, already now a mature cat (born 2010), has a protege named Yontama (fourth Tama, b. 2016). There is no information available for either the physical befellment or tragic self-disgrace which has removed Santama from contention.
^Nitama majestic, and below with Yontama
Yontama.
a legacy
okay but actually what happened to santama (or sun-tama-tama, which is her name because it’s a pun on santama) was that she was basically sent to train for the position in okayama and they liked her so much they refused to send her back
“Sun-tama-tama” (a pun off of “Santama”, lit. “third Tama”) was a calico cat sent for training in Okayama. Sun-tama-tama was considered as a candidate for Tama’s successor, but the Okayama Public Relations representative who had been caring for Sun-tama-tama refused to give the cat up writing, “I will not let go of this child, she will stay in Okayama.” [25]
As of September 2018, Sun-tama-tama is working as the stationmaster in Naka-ku, Okayama and appears occasionally on Tama’s Twitter account.
Every time I see this post there’s new info and it gets better
You are only allowed to scroll pass this after you pay tribute to the great Tama Station masters.

Nitama presenting her yearly offerings to Tama Daimyōjin on the anniversary of Tama’s Death, June 23 (The offerings are presented by the company president, as Nitama is a cat and thus can’t hold the offerings herself) (Not pictured, but also present, Yontama)
you cannot pass without reblogging guys. i’m sorry, i don’t make the rules.
“I have to go to the bathroom!”
“I have to go to make sure he washes his hands afterwards!”
“I am… foll…ow…ing… them.”
Major Polygon Cyberpunk RED vibes. "We're just doing normal bathroom stuff but there's 3 of us"
if Gilbert Gottfried isn’t voicing this slamming power bottom then what are we even doing here
this screenshot leaves out the best part of the character design

I think we’re not seeing the bigger picture here which is that Disney has a dating sim app, if Iago is in it then who the fuck else is in it
I cannot stress this enough, but, what the fuck
I feel like it should be clarified that the sexy anime husband next to Iago is not, in fact, Jafar.
That’s Jafar’s staff.
HIS WHAT ???
This post is a new punch in the face every time I see it
Isn't it just a gacha rhythm fighting game? I played it for 5 minutes and got bored
The first part triggers the sleeper cells the second part turns on rage mode for them

We as a species are each and every day becoming more creative in the ways with which we destroy eachothers lives.
God fucking dammit another one
