Girl: Okay friends, if you want any later my name’s Zoey, i always sit here

[monicanna-mess]

Guy: do you want a cigarette?

Me: I don’t smoke

Guy: good, don’t start

(that happened on multiple occasions with different people)

[colt-kun]

Seriously I was pressured into reading the Twilight books 1000x more than any drugs or alcohol

[itsindigowhite]

The last one

[opossumly-cryptic]

Adults would rather believe drugs are caused by peer pressuring teens rather than horrible situations developing kids are put into that drive them to seek out any sort of relief they can find. They don’t want to believe that they themselves are driving kids to do drugs.

Want teens to do less drugs? Provide accessible and cheap (or free) mental health support, get kids out of abusive situations, and use education rather than fear mongering when trying to deter teens.

This is more of a personal opinion, but I think legalizing weed would significantly reduce the use of harder, more dangerous drugs.

Please don’t pay for his music.

also don’t listen to it, it’s extremely bad

[holybucketbatman]

He’s wanting to do this to his home: 

He submitted the proposal to the Kensington and Chelsea Borough Council and the plan was rejected because the proposed four-foot-high railings (fence) and simple cast iron gate (which was chosen purely privacy and security for the front of the home) were considered “too domestic” looking for the former industrial area. The council gave Sheeran a list of options for privacy “railings”, and after changing the proposal Sheeran was given permission that was more in line with the neighbourhood, which is in a conservation area.  A direct quote from Sheeran states: “Dear Natalie Edwards from The Sun newspaper. Your story is bollocks, I have done lots of work in the past for Crisis and Shelter and would never build railings outside my home for that reason.The reason was to keep the paps that you employ from being on my doorstep. Have a good day.” this comment has been substantiated by the local police and security companies that Sheeran and his neighbours have had to contact previously when paparazzi have been taking photographs not only of Sheeran’s house but inside his windows, and constantly knocking on his door and yelling outside his house.  Think about this for a moment, a guy bought a house and fixed it up, he was trying to gain some privacy by asking for a simple fence and gate to indicate the property line and gain some distance from the paps, - which the police and council said was fine - and the newspapers who can no longer use these ill-gotten photos and are probably pissed have managed to spin this story to make it seem that this guy (whether you like his music or not), is an asshole and is anti-homeless. And you’re all eating this shit up and believing the newspapers, even though the Sun and Telegraph are well known across the UK for making shit up and lying. smh.

Abled Person: Hey man, can you hold this wad of $2,000 and this one penny for me while I open my wallet?

Disabled Person: YOU COMPLETE AND UTTER FOOL!

The United States Government:

(Watch how many people don’t get this.)

[marauders4evr]

#raises hand #i dont understand #please explain? 

In order for disabled people to receive any sort of financial assistant for their housing, food, bills, medical supplies, etc., they cannot ever have more than $2,000 of resources to their name. Ever.

It doesn’t matter what it’s for.

You’re saving up for a new wheelchair?

For college?

To put a downpayment on a house?

Hell man, you just happen to budget for once in your life so that you can have some extra money in case something bad happens?

Your benefits immediately get cut off if you’re a cent over $2,000.

And, even worse, you usually end up having to pay back every dollar the government gave you that month.

So say you get $400. If they find out you’re twenty dollars over the resource limit, you have to give them all $400 back and you undergo an investigation of your funds to see if you will continue getting money.

“What if I spend the money that day?”

Doesn’t matter. In fact, from what I can tell, people who do this are actually put under investigation for fraud.

And yes, this system literally kills people.

[locuas642]

Remember when “Guardians of the Galaxy” came out? one of Rocket Racoon’s creators, Bill Mantlo, suffered an accident in 1992 and has irreparable brain damage.

before the movie came out, Marvel gave him an exclusive preview screening. SOme people were upset because they felt if Marvel was really wanted to thank mantlo, they should have donated money to Mantlo’s family.

Bill Mantlo’s brother had to come out and explain: If Marvel gave them monetary aid, Bill Mantlo would lose his financial assistance.

[rootbeergoddess]

That’s so utterly depressing.

I have friends on welfare who won’t pick up a penny in the street because they’d risk the welfare they struggled to get for 10 years.

[raenboow]

oh look another fucked up thing in this world. let’s just add it to the list. number 63858b

[luvtonique]

My brother has been on California State SSI for autism for the last 10 years, and he absolutely has to (no joke, HAS TO) spend all 720 bucks of his SSI every month, because if he puts it in the bank he risks losing his SSI altogether.

Sometimes, at the end of the month, he has no idea what to do with his money because the whole month went by and he still has 400-ish bucks in his account, and he fucking panics because he doesn’t want to get anywhere near 2,000.

And here’s the funnest part of the story!

One day he did a huge commission on Second Life and wound up earning 1500 bucks off of it, and he told the guy to donate it 500 bucks at a time over 3 months. The guy didn’t want to, and just donated all 1500, which put my brother at 2,036 bucks.

The state IMMEDIATELY (I’m talking less than an hour) called him up to tell him over the phone that they were canceling his SSI, because they noticed he had gone over the 2,000 buck threshold. He had to tell them that someone had made a charitable donation to him and that this was not a common occurrence in any way shape or form, and upon not believing him, my mother had to call to talk to them as his legal caretaker and say basically the same thing until they called off the cancellation of his SSI money.

He also had to cancel his renter’s assistance because it put him to 1,062 a month, so if he went 30 days without spending any money they’d cancel his SSI altogether. Like, none of us in the family have any fucking clue why that regulation is in place and it’s the stupidest shit in human history.

Please, legal side of Tumblr, tell me what positive reasoning this law has?

[euryale-dreams-deactivated20201]

It’s not just money, though. Things you own can count against your resource limit as well provided that they’re not exempt and provided that they’re worth money.

Also, the rules about what is and is not exempt from being counted against your resource limit are incredibly vague and deliberately open to interpretation. Even things that are normally exempted like clothing or furniture could be deemed non-exempt if a capricious bureaucrat decides that it’s actually worth too much money and thus counts as an ‘investment.’

As someone who receives SSI this causes me a huge amount of stress.

[twodotsknowwhy]

This is so unbelievably fucked up

[prudencepaccard]

don’t couples have to divorce sometimes because their combined income disqualifies them from assistance?

[ranma-official]

Conservatives: be more frugal and save money instead of asking to get paid more

Also conservatives: if you save money you’re a sneaky thief and a fraud

[revanhart]

My partner and I have been together for over 8 years. We cannot get married because doing so will cut down ALL of our assistance stuff (food stamps, disability income and health insurance) by at least half. We hardly make enough to survive as it is, so we’re going to have to live the rest of our lives never being able to fucking marry because of the way the government treats disabled people.

Fuck America.

What do angels actually look like per the bible?

Well, according to Ezekiel 1 they might look something like this…

According to Daniel 10 something like this…

According to Isaiah 6…

In Ezekiel 10… 

Again in Ezekiel 10…

Basically, when the people writing Scripture tried to describe what they saw when they saw an angel… they run into the end of their imagination… they can never quite seem to fully explain it because they had trouble even comprehending what they saw, let alone being able to describe it to someone else. 

[musiqchild007]

[revelation19]

Yeah, that’s usually how people responded to seeing them in the Bible…

[the-unreadable-jimanjikles]

There’s a good reason why angels’ standard greeting is ‘Do not be afraid’.

[glitterbomb-goblinking-blog]

I used to listen to this radio show and one thing I remember because it was so funny was a Christmas special where an angel showed up to tell the shepherds about the birth of Christ.  The conversations went:

Angel: “FEAR NOT.”

Shepherds: *screaming*

Angel: “I SAID FEAR NOT.”

Shepherds: *screaming LOUDER*

Angel: “WHAT PART OF FEAR NOT ARE YOU NOT UNDERSTANDING?”

[cameoamalthea]

So demons are fallen angels but they don’t look scary because they’re fallen, that’s just what all angels look like…

Maybe that’s why so many Christians see visions of Saints or the Virgin Mary instead…like Jesus is all…no, no see being human made me realize sending Angels might not be the best idea. I don’t know if humans can handle this. So I’m gonna just send mom

God: Hey now, some of those spiders eat birds.

Jesus: …Dad…

[madame-miersae-deactivated20200]

I’m genuinely curious as to why more people are not upset about the gear that drops from Uldir. That has to be some of the ugliest gear I’ve seen and it overall just looks lazy in my opinion. I want something that is at least flattering not a bulky mess.

[lordofwar0]

Mostly because if they follow the pattern they have in the past with raid tiers, and this is mostly conjecture cuz a lot has changed. Not only do we not have tier sets specifically anymore we probably won’t see new Azerite traits with the next raid since that raid is probably a carry over raid if anything.

If Uldir is like EN it’s Tier .5 which is basically saying its an intro tier, like how EN and ToV were T.5 and T.75 with Nighthold being T1.

So we don’t really know and while it sucks in terms of looks I’m holding my breath till we get more content out.

[rtrixie]

The way I see it, America will eventually have the choice between forgiving student debt or facing the massive destabilization caused by an entire generation being unable to build any wealth.

By destabilization I mean that the millennial generation will eventually become aware of the fact that they will be enslaved by their student debt for most of, if not their entire lives.

Many in this generation still had parents that were able to save and contribute financially to their children’s college education, but that’s also going to be a thing of the past when everyone has their own debt burden to carry well into adulthood - meaning the problem will become unimaginably worse for the next generation.

Once people realize this, you’ve got a social powder keg unheard of since the social question poised by the industrial revolution.

The entire student loan system is little more than a scheme meant to extract every last bit of present and future wealth from society’s youngest members, and the longer it continues, the uglier its inevitable end is going to be.

[pinkcheesegreenghost-deactivate]

and so many millennials are choosing not to get married, or have kids because of all the debts they owe. 

its having much more severe consequences than people want to admit.

The quote would be more accurate if it said “Cartoons were never as easy, fast and (potentially) cheap to make as they are today”.

Just because the tech improved considerably since the 80s, writing has not. The only difference is that it’s laden with political nonsense, dumb memes and ‘lolsorandom’ humor that makes the occasional anime bugeye-surprise and faceplant scenes feel innocent.

And it’s not that nostalgic people hate new things. They love new things. IF the new things are actually good. Which sadly isn’t true 75% of the time. 

There are some 80s-90s classics that are drawn and written better than things you can find nowadays, because back then quality was important and people still cared about it back then. There’s an occasional error or outdated bit, but it doesn’t define the entire show as a whole. Cartoons such as Rescue Rangers come to mind. Gargoyles, etc.

Now you look at all those countless reboots of cartoons that back then used to be popular, piggybacking on said popularity but completely wrecking everything the original had to offer. Character designs, personalities, backstories and whatnot are all just…thrown out the window and replaced with something the design artist and writer(s) felt “more appropriate”. Deviating so hard from the original, you can’t help but ask yourself one question.

“Why didn’t you make something ORIGINAL, then?”

(Sidenote: everything I just said could also be applied to live-action adaptations, such as the Transformers movies, Resident Evil, Teen Titans, etc)

That said, I don’t particularly care for She-Ra on its own. I have maybe seen 6-8 episodes at best, so it doesn’t define my childhood. Anyway, most of the fanart I’ve seen so far fixed the main gripe I’ve had with her design (having a boy-head with the hair so firmly and flatly pressed onto the top of her skull that there’s zero volume and looks more like some kind of mullet), …though apparently 70% of those images are actually fembois XD

It’s not a hard and fast rule, but just off the top of my head, here’s one way to tell the difference between a mansplainer and an autistic info-dumper:

(because both exist, and I think they sometimes get mistaken for each other)

A mansplainer will get defensive and pissed off when it turns out you know more than they do, and will probably try to trip you up.

An autistic info-dumper will probably just be excited they found someone who knows more about the topic than they do, and is likely to eagerly seek further enlightenment.

I mean, both may argue their cases, but the autistic info-dumper is honestly trying to communicate about the topic, whereas the mansplainer is trying to reinforce their own imagined “superiority.”
