I love that Leverage really goes out of it’s way to show us that just because you break the ‘rules’, it doesn’t mean you’re breaking the rules. Rules and laws and society are all made up, at the end of the day, and all you really have is your own moral compass and sense of justice; is this just to you? Is it right? Should it be OK for companies to put people in insurmountable debt for the rest of their lives just because our medical care is so expensive in this modern day and age? No law or rule should change what you know in your heart is right and wrong, and I think that’s the key thing that makes someone a good person in my eyes.

#there was a time when parker wouldn’t have noticed, #not because she lacked the capacity to care, #but because she had narrowed herself, #to stay alive she cut off as many unnecessary things as possible, #watching her get them all back, #is one of the glories of this show (via @seananmcguire)

Leverage hands down has the best character development I’ve ever seen.

[lets-go-steal-an-ot3]

This scene hit me like a brick. My parents were hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt when I was 16 bc I’d had cancer the year before (my treatment ended up being free but the initial ER bills and such were not).

But somewhere along the line they just… Disappeared. My mom says they’re not being paid and they’re not in collections. It’s almost as if someone out there did…exactly what Parker did.

Ever since I saw this the first time, I’ve imagined it was Parker doing it. That she and Hardison had a free weekend and decided to take it out on a collections agency. That I was one of the lucky ones who got a little Leverage.

Okay but like yeah, that is actually a thing that happens, albeit not exactly like this. I don’t remember the exact process but basically there’s a booming industry to sell peoples debt - the business you owe money to sells it to someone else for a fraction of the money owed, wipes their hands of the whole affair, and now whoever bought your debt is riding your ass to get you to give the money to the. But it’s also entirely possible for people to just… buy up massive amounts of debt for pennies on the dollar, and then just. Forgive it. Because capitalism is a living nightmare, but the system is broken enough that it’s possible to exploit it for good sometimes.

Like, the main reason I know about this is because John Oliver did a piece on debt buying a few years ago, and ended it by revealing that he’d bought 15 million dollars worth of medical debt just so he could forgive all of it. Both to expose how broken the system was because some random fucker like him could buy millions of dollars in peoples debt with zero regulations, and also just to take the record for biggest TV giveaway in history.

A charity where you can do this, right here.

Be Parker! Be somebody else’s Leverage!

Reblogging for the website.

[nianeyna]

yes! if you want to help with the medical debt crisis in the US and have some extra money please donate to RIP Medical Debt if you can. They’re completely legit and really do what they say - you really CAN relieve an incredible amount of debt for the needy with even a small donation. I’m a monthly donor and receive a quarterly report of the debt they’ve abolished, and it truly is amazing. Based on those reports the average amount of debt abolished per person is actually I would say about $600 - which means, if you’re doing the math, that with a $6 donation to RIP Medical Debt, you can potentially pull one person out of a poverty spiral - maybe even one family. For six dollars. that’s a pretty good deal, I think.

RIP Medical Debt is now called Undue Medical Debt!

Undue Medical Debt makes it easy for donors to make an impactful difference in the lives of those struggling with medical debt.

[blueguylover]

i love khun but hes translucent

[nonotoff]

Zero melanin in that boy

[salpho]

Kinda love how scared miis are in this game. They fear their tiny island being crushed by normal sized food. You can give them a piece of elastic and they look at it with immense horror. They scare each other easily. When truly horrified they just stand still frozen in shock. These are little prey animals to me. I want to protect them from scary things like normal sized steak and haircombs.

[nonotoff]

I think if god themselves showed up to interfere with my personal life, I’d be psychologically disturbed enough to feel immense fear from the weak-looking elastic rope as well

Khun’s bandana

Ok so I got a bandanna for the first time in a while and I’ve realized there is not enough appreciation for Khun’s bandana in s1. Yeah it can be used as a hair tie and personal memento, but have we considered:

- different hairstyles with bandana

- Bandana first aid

- Bandana blindfold

- Bandana survival skills

- Wrapping lunch boxes with bandana

- etc

Anyway I like to think he brought it with him because it was versatile and useful while climbing a death tower, and we don’t see it anymore because it’s been worn down to shreds

(He should get another bandana)

[cat-mermaid]

PRONOUNS FOR YOUR MIIS ARE IN TOMODACHI LIFE LIVING THE DREAM

I swear I thought that would be a Japan-only feature, and thank GOD it's not! People have been wanting pronouns in the game for ages!!

[nonotoff]

AND you can add family members to their profile!!

[garbanzo-dot-com]

This is straight up beautiful

[disembodiedvoicecrossover]

i Just randomly got a new ad for tomodachi life living the dream and took like. 3 screenshots of it. because i’ve never seen it before

“your best friend is in love with your brother…who’s also a hot dog”

“your dad is the resident farter”

there’s also this moment of a mii’s birthday being celebrated! so the birthday celebrations Are still in ^^

maybe i’ll link the ad in a reblog if i find it. or whatever

[nonotoff]

I love how it’s not “your brother is dressed like a hotdog” but “your brother IS in fact, a hotdog.”
