remember when elomusk asked one of his rocketship employees to give him sex favors in exchange for a horse

[mossworm]

I think this tidbit should be more famous than his exploding cars. It's all I'll ever need to know. A real human man tried and failed to barter with a flight attendant for third base by offering to buy her a horse (that's what girls like, right?)

[mossworm]

A SpaceX flight attendant said Elon Musk exposed himself and propositioned her for sex, documents show. The company paid $250,000 for her si

SpaceX paid a flight attendant $250,000 in severance after she accused Elon Musk of exposing himself and offering to buy her a horse in exch

every time I bring up the horse thing at least a few people haven't heard of it, so I think it's only fair to keep mentioning it for as long as I live

I mean, I feel safe from them but I’m suddenly EXTREMELY worried about what shenanigans I’ve stumbled into

“So you feel safe now?”

“Oh, absolutely not”

can’t believe I’m only now finding out that hiro suzuhira redrew her anime goth girl in 2020 after finding out how iconic she is in the west

I thought, “This isn’t retirement.” […] It’s not that I’m withdrawing from the front lines or anything, it’s that I’m at the starting line to become even better.

so glad i read tags

[spacehorrors]

it is also worth noting that this will be used to cover up the inaction on the cost of living crisis. expect a bunch of "uk coming together to mourn the queen" bullshit soon when families are choosing between heating their homes and feeding their kids

[spacehorrors]

not to mention how the funeral costs will show just where the country's priorities are but any political figures pointing that out will be demonised for being anti-monarchy

[qqueenofhades]

Try to have some respect the queen just DIED. It's not like she was evil or anything

And why should I do that for the head of a family that oversaw the British Empire's legendarily brutal concentration camps in colonialist Kenya during the 1952-1960 Mau Mau rebellion, has personally and repeatedly shielded credibly accused rapist Prince Andrew and tried to get the scandal to go away, personally paid Andrew's financial settlement while the family treated Meghan Markle terribly and gave her none of the same protection, exerted a huge amount of control over UK public finances without any transparency or disclosure (while also receiving huge amounts of that money), got to personally edit laws according to her likes and dislikes, enjoyed sweeping legal immunities that are described as a "threat to UK democracy," is the most visible figurehead of British colonialism even as her descendants put on a horribly tone-deaf Caribbean tour (twice in one year!) that was basically about unreconstructed imperial imagery of the kind that is poisoning Britain, while the entire country buys into the fantasy that she is an impartial, uninvolved, kindly and benevolent grandmotherly figure....?

Nah.

who's got the Connolly quote?

[hierarchyproblem]

“We will not blame him for the crimes of his ancestors if he relinquishes the royal rights of his ancestors; but as long as he claims their rights, by virtue of descent, then, by virtue of descent, he must shoulder the responsibility for their crimes.”

An NYPD detective is forced into an early retirement after a case gone awry. He moves into a small idyllic town in Canada. But the town holds a dark secret.

Except the secret in all his head. The town is actually as wholesome and idyllic as it seems to be.

The townsfolk are all just playing along with his investigation to make him feel better about losing his job.

"I don't get this whole cult thing. What am I supposed to be worshipping?"

"I dunno, Greg. Something with blood?"

"Can it be the Goddess of high blood pressure?"

"That sounds dangerous!"

"Sure, fine. As long as you got your robes hidden in a secret compartment in your closet."

"I like this. This is fun."

Silent Hill

[charlesoberonn]

I like the implications of this comment, that Silent Hill isn't a haunted town full of supernatural manifestations of your psyche, and it's actually just cheeky locals dressed up as monstrosities.

I didn’t know cheetahs meow I’ve always thought they roar my whole life has been a lie

[anarchapella]

Ok but the other one is purring so hard

[valgalart]

If I ever don’t reblog this assume I’m dead

[excessively-english-jd]

Fun fact: technically, because of its inability to roar and its ability to purr, the cheetah is not a ‘big cat’ (or Great Cat) - they are still classified as Lesser Cats.

Also you haven’t heard anything until you hear them cheep.

YOU CANNOT JUST SAY THAT AND NOT PROVIDE A VIDEO

I HAVE REALISED MY MISTAKE AND SHALL RECTIFY IT:

Cheeps.

if i was a mage in thedas i’d be so fucked, all it would take is one sloth demon to go “hey you should take a nap” and i’d be like “i fully understand the dire consequences of these actions and i must resist you with every fibre of my mind, body and soul but you know what dude that sounds like a great idea *becomes an abomination and dies*”
