I told my little nephew that I'd wave at his airplane when it flew over my house today, and he very calmly and politely explained that it wouldn't be possible to see me due to the limitations of human vision. I said he just had to squint real hard, and he took a deep breath and went into the toddler version of "see, what you're not understanding–"

it is actually haunting me that I forgot to wave. if he looked out the airplane window, he wouldn’t have seen me…..

Go outside and wave real quick. He can not see you from wherever he is just as well as he could not see you from his plane. It's still nothing, nothing will change, but a process would occur.

hi this drives me crazy

canon is what happens in the text. e.g. merlin tries to poison morgana

a headcanon is a fact that you have personally made up as an elaboration of canon. it is your invention. e.g. i think morgana and gwen had a teenage lesbian situationship before the events of canon. or, i think modern morgana would love evanesence.

an interpretation is how one reads the existing text. it is not an invented fact nor is it a headcanon, it is a reading. e.g. i think merlin tries to poison morgana out of misplaced self-hatred. or, i think that one line was delivered with suppressed malice and shows a nuanced relationship.

fanon is the general fandom’s accepted headcanons and interpretations that elaborate or recontextualize canon. e.g. merlin is a badass waif and morgana is a bitch.

these are all different words with different meanings.

Also, for an interpretation to be valid it needs to be based on the text. It cannot just be a vibe. One can disagree on readings of the text, but if someone comes with quotes and/or historical context and you just have vibes, then sorry, your interpretation is inferior and may in fact just be a headcanon.

Mood. Have to add my other fave Darwin Being Hyperfixated On Invertebrate Taxonomy quote

Orcs have sieged the main gate but whatever. I am behind the second gate, which is unsiegable.

pukicho

The impenetrable second gate has been sieged, but no matter, my door is the strongest door in the realm.

i agree that kids deserve and need more access to HRT earlier in life should they desire to transition but i really hate that the main argument in favor of it is "we need to have people transition earlier before PERMANENT IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE makes it so they can NEVER EVER look like their desired gender and they'll be FOREVER UGLY AND CLOCKY"

sforzzz

like i just want more bodily autonomy for everyone why do we gotta frame it like this

While American Jews are slightly more likely to see criticism or protest of Israel as antisemitic than the rest of the population, we are also significantly more likely to say those are *not* antisemitic, by large majorities.

When AIPAC or Dem Majority of Israel or any of their shell groups try to act as if criticism of Israel is antisemitic, just know that:

70% of American Jews do not think criticism of Israel is antisemitic, while only 20% do.

68% of American Jews do not think criticism of the IDF is antisemitic, while only 25% do.

49% of American Jews do not think protesting events that tangentially support Israel is antisemitic, while only 38% do.

AIPAC speaks for a minority of conservative Jews (who are only around 15-20% of the American Jewish population) and powerful billionaire donors, a good number of whom aren't even Jewish. It is time once and for all to end this vile lie that Israel=Jew and that all or even a majority of Jews support the apartied and genocide of the modern Israel occupation.

Holy shit 😲 Nobody ever told me that the Fruity Pebbles mascots had their own western anime series? 😳 And it's like, literally so interesting, too?? It's basically a sort of theoretical "what if" scenario, about what it might be like if Homo Sapiens was around during the Jurassic Period—and this was way before Jurassic Park did it! 😯

I've been binge-watching it like crazy in my "cave man" outfit (or "cave woman", to be more precise, heh! 😏) and am hooked on yelling the show's original catch phrase (that's when Rubble-san says, "Yabba dabba doo!" for those who haven't seen it yet) at the top of my lungs whenever it comes up in an episode! 😆
