Girl let's get all our information on a political question that has been debated for decades from an unsourced 12 minutes long YouTube video essay 👭

Seaspiracy | Netflix Official Site

Passionate about ocean life, a filmmaker sets out to document the harm that humans do to marine species — and uncovers alarming global corruption.

A new documentary has launched on Netflix today, focusing on the harm humans do to marine species. It offers a close look at the global fishing industry and the environmental, animal and human rights issues that go along with it. I would definitely recommend checking it out, particularly for anyone convinced of the sustainability of eating sea animals. Do be aware though, it features scenes of blood, gore and graphic footage of animal cruelty.

not to hop in on the Hottest Discourse but:

age gaps aren’t inherently bad between adults, but they are incredibly suspect in instances where one party has significantly more agency and experience due to their age. a thirty year old dating a forty year old, for instance, isn’t all that big a deal. but an eighteen year old should be VERY suspicious of a thirty year old wanting to get with them. they’ve had twelve years to establish themselves as an adult. an eighteen year old has had maybe a few months to do so.

i’m saying this as a person who briefly dated a thirty year old at age 19 (it wasn’t good lol), and also as a person with happily married parents who have a 12 year age gap. the difference is that my mom was in her thirties when she met my dad; she’d had plenty of time to find a career and a name for herself in the world.

stay safe, love urself, try to make good decisions but don’t beat yourself up if you’ve ever been the victim of an unbalanced or abusive relationship

I need yall to understand that healthy 30 year olds look at 19-year-olds and see kids. Not in a demeaning way – but in a way that automatically removes that 19-year-old from romantic consideration. And even if you “look very mature for your age,” a healthy 30 year old will learn you are 19 and back out of that crush at 90 mph no matter how good your contour game is.

folks who smugly snark at other people for excitedly talking about the things they want to do when we’re no longer facing a global pandemic are so boring

[dingdongyouarewrong]

‘ummmmm actually ‘when covid is over’ is technically incorrect because small localized outbreaks might still happen around flu season and it’s pretty dumb and naive of you to talk about something that’s never going to happen :/’ you are a brain genius. you are the smartest person in this dennys. pretending you don’t understand that ‘when covid is over’ is cultural shorthand for ‘when there is no longer a global pandemic where thousands of people are dying on the daily and it is relatively safe to do group activities’ is very clever. you’re much smarter than everyone else. would you like a brain genius medal

Americans and their lockers will never understand the absolute shit that was bringing your books and sometimes dictionaries and all of your school supplies (art supplies PE clothes and whatever your school required) all on your back every single day and slowly transforming into the hunchback of notre dame in the span of five (or more in my case) years
