I’m going to be blunt with you Mr. Car Salesman, may I call you Mr. Car Salesman? I don’t care how fast it goes, or how many horse souls you encased in the engine, I only care about the horn. Now please stop talking so I can hear this bad boy beep.

I love the movie credits sequences that show the characters just travelling or relaxing or doing mundane things. They give the sense that even when nothing relevant to our interest is happening and we’re not looking, their adventure continues on.

“My cousin Helen, who is in her 90s now, was in the Warsaw ghetto during World War II. She and a bunch of the girls in the ghetto had to do sewing each day. And if you were found with a book, it was an automatic death penalty. She had gotten hold of a copy of ‘Gone With the Wind’, and she would take three or four hours out of her sleeping time each night to read. And then, during the hour or so when they were sewing the next day, she would tell them all the story. These girls were risking certain death for a story. And when she told me that story herself, it actually made what I do feel more important. Because giving people stories is not a luxury. It’s actually one of the things that you live and die for.” –Neil Gaiman

Hey y’all film crew member here. For those of you asking, they’re running like that to stay out of the shot.  For us crew we TRY OUR HARDEST TO NOT GET FILMED. IT’S IMPORTANT. It’s like playing the floor is lava but with a side of “you’re fired” if you lose too many times.  We’ll do anythING to not be seen. Duck around corners, dive under tables, jump in the bushes, assume fetal position on the floor, climb trees, get in the robot, hide in the trojan horse, become a vampire, you fuckin name it.  My fav game while watching a movie is “guess where the crew is hiding in this shot” it’s great fun you should try it.  The only problem in this particular shot is there is nowhere to hide except behind the camera which IS MOVING REALLY FAST.  Why they didn’t just leave the room I have no idea. it could be any number of reasons. Time, lack of proper equipment, need to supervise/direct, etc.  The real question is how the hell did Gaga not fucking lose it seeing a herd of film nerds scamper desperately in circles behind the camera

[alwaysadrienne]

As a TV/Film production assistant, I’ve hidden behind legit gravestones, barrels, bushes, you name it, in order to cue cast members. I always like to see the finished product knowing that I’m hiding in the shot or am tucked around a corner to keep pedestrians from walking through. If I’m watching with someone I will point it out.

I also like trying to figure out what scene order films might have had (I firmly believe that the ending Norway scene in Thor: Ragnorak was shot before the first one), what was a crane shot or steadicam, if there was a delayed action cue after camera movements, etc.

I am currently both a teacher and a student, and I am of the apparently controversial opinion that late work should always be accepted. Not just if they have a doctor’s note or their mom’s death certificate. Not just for one or two assignments a semester. Always.

“But that’s unfair to the people who submitted on time!”

I didn’t say you had to give everybody full credit. Drop the grade for each individual assignment by 5% for every day late until it gets down to 20%. Never, ever take it below 20%.

Here’s my rationale:

1. If you are a good educator, then you created that assignment in the first place because YOU WANTED YOUR STUDENTS TO LEARN SOMETHING. You still want them to have an incentive to complete that learning experience even if it’s not “on time.”

2. You want to prepare your students for the the real world, right? Well, if you missed a deadline (for example, submitting report cards), would your boss throw away everything you’d worked on, dock your paycheck, and tell you to try again next time? No. They would be upset with you, but they would ask you to take time out of your schedule to finish the project as quickly as possible. It wouldn’t cease to exist.

3. Based on point #2, if you are teaching high school or below, not accepting late work is holding children (who by the way, generally do not have full control over their schedules or what materials they have access to) to a higher standard than adults. 

4. If you are teaching college or graduate school, you are working with adults who are taking years out of their lives and paying thousands of dollars to learn from you. Why make it harder for them than it already is?

5. You have or will teach students with extenuating life circumstances that they don’t tell you about (e.g. chronic illness, caring for children or sick relatives, abusive relationships) because they are embarrassed to share this information or have already been taught to shut up and stop making excuses.

6. You have or will teach students with learning disabilities that they don’t even know about. I was diagnosed with ADHD in high school after years of being treated like I was just a bad kid. I suffered from depression and anxiety for over ten years before I went on medication. I did not even learn the words “executive dysfunction” until I was in grad school.

In conclusion, yes, we all know that being a teacher gives you authority but that’s no reason to flaunt it by imposing restrictions that don’t exist anywhere else in the name of “education.”

[chromalogue]

All of this.  In addition, I have a private and secret policy of not even imposing late penalties.  Between poverty and an undiagnosed circadian adventurousness, my undergraduate career was one gigantic extenuating circumstance, but I was never docked marks when I turned in something late.  For me to turn around and not extend the same grace to my students would be both ingratitude and hypocrisy.

The original post was actually pretty good and talked about how reliable of commissioners the furry community were for a struggling artist.

But aight lmao

[pokemonprofessor]

for anyone who chose not to read the post:

artist needed money for college, people from tumblr/dA told them their prices were too expensive and that no one would commission them.

artist was desperate and logged on to their old Furaffinity account to take commissions

artist got a shitton of commissions and everyone was supportive and encouraging

people ended up tipping the artist 10-20$ per commission because they thought the artist was undercharging

tl;dr - furries supported artist and treated them better than the “pro-artist” sides of dA and tumblr.

[musashi]

so when’s cringe culture gonna wake up and realize that this weird baseless hatred of furries is largely rooted in the fact that it’s a community of 95% openly queer & sex-positive folk…

[ducklingfantasy-deactivated2019]

Furry hatred is deceased, 2008 is over baby

[lesbiangender-deactivated201908]

and people like to point to the infamous confederate flag fursuit and the inappropriate behavior of some furies at conventions…. completely ignoring the fact that suits like that get banned from conventions, that “antifa furs” are very much a thing, and that most furries hate “cub porn” and bestiality and flaunting your kink in all-ages spaces.

not to mention all the money they raise for animal welfare and indigenous peoples legal funds!

and of course these people never seem to criticize anime convention goers for dressing as anime nazis and heiling for photos or using panels as an excuse to sexually harass cosplayers, and selling porn of underage characters in artist’s alley…. basically every problem they have with furries except there are way more anime conventions and this behavior is much more accepted, I guess because dressing up as a dog is what makes it immoral, right?

Furries aren’t the only ones who trash hotel rooms and make bad porn. They aren’t even the ones who do it the most.

in honor of how many lesbians love that kindly adventuring man

[ladyloveandjustice]

I really like that it seems like more and more yuri is directly confronting and debunking “it’s just a phase” rhetoric and showing how harmful and wrong it is.

I also always love seeing adult lesbians in yuri/anime in general. We even get to see them living together and kissing!

Sayaka is told by her middle school girlfriend their feelings are just a phase. She’s crushed and eventually tries to convince herself its true. But then she sees adult lesbians in a happy relationship, definitive proof its not true. And she’s able to confide in this adult, discuss her feelings of liking girls and see hope for her own future. It’s really great, and it really warms my heart to see depictions of adult lesbians supporting younger members of the community. Bloom into You is Good.
