i think it’s very brave and sexy of me to still play pokemon games in the exact same way i did when i was 5 years old - ignoring all stat changing moves. this is an offensive move only household. if you effectively stratagise using stat changes in battle Fuck You

god im going to be fucking hallucinating this video for months ok there’s just so much to this to break down

the initial fact they’re talking through a hand puppet with the oobi eyes 

the horrible, horrible desynch between their words and the movements of the hand 

lack of any clear place the hand is looking 

“dwells in the depths”. just the whole sentence itself and the weird inflection on it.

the fact that the dude clearly already discovered this thing and was so moved by it they went to record it 

“wuoah”, and the split second of open-palmed hand that no longer resembles a puppet 

the weird fade in on the music and the fact it sounds a little distorted at first 

the very specific but undefinable emotion conveyed by the music 

the inconsistent zoom

fantastic analysis but you forgot the banana in the chair which is integral to my enjoyment of this video

This is the “you need to boil the water for instant noodles” couple. Who’s going to volunteer and teach them how to cook safely and and efficiently?

[treacheuryouswhore]

Me, walking up to a gay couple: so which one of you tries to heat up noodles without adding water and which one of you breaks out the toolbox to slice vegetables?

Breast Implant Injuries Kept Hidden As New Health Threats Surface - ICIJ

Manufacturers fought to get implants back on the market. Regulators gave in. Now thousands of patients are paying the price.

For years, the FDA allowed breast implant companies to bury evidence of ruptures and other injuries by reporting them as routine events that did not require public disclosure. When the FDA tightened enforcement of its reporting rules in 2017, reports of injuries soared, and they are on pace to increase more than 20-fold in the last two years from the previous two-year period.

According to an ICIJ analysis of FDA adverse event data, the number of suspected breast implant injuries jumped from an average of fewer than 200 a year through 2016, before the FDA’s more rigorous reporting rules, to 4,567 events in 2017 and at least 8,242 in the first half of 2018.

Experts say the surge in reports doesn’t mean breast implants have suddenly gone bad; it’s that they were never as safe as the data — and the FDA’s approval — implied in the first place.

[kittyit]

i didn’t know until recently that the reason that breasts with implants inside them are hard (the subject of much mockery) is because of something call encapsulation. the body recognizes the implant as a foreign substance and the collagen/skin tights and contracts. it’s very uncomfortable, painful, and requires additional surgery to prevent bursting the implants, which has a ton of associated health effects, many of which are addressed in this article. standard practice used to be surgeons simply roughly breaking up the tissue during the follow up surgeries without even informing the patients of the incredibly painful results both in the short and long term.  encapsulation is treated as a “possible complication” when really it’s an incredibly common, normal function of bodies and anecdotally seems pretty much ubiquitous.

this is just an aside but i’m in a facebook group for people dealing with mold and recently there was a thread of thirty or so women posting their removed implants that were moldly inside and it was one of the most disturbing things i’ve ever seen.

recommended reading for learning more about unethical practice of breast implants and the predatory industry it supports: flesh wounds: the culture of cosmetic surgery by virgina blum.
