Shingeki no Something-or-Other

Just stuff. Or something.

This feels a little too on-the-nose if I’m honest

Not an invitation to cocoon yourself in a self-care bubble for four years, but a reminder to the 24/7 worriers that you can literally write "To Do on Monday: Worry about ________" on a post-it note and stop worrying about it for one day while you recharge.

Controversial opinion: If they're not going to turn out to town halls, you need to turn out to their homes and offices.

It's called "escrache", and the Argentinians invented it: you just organise demonstrations, noisy ones, lengthy ones, in front of the private residences of politicians.

OH. can’t believe I forgot about such an important part of art history my apologies

[thoodleoo]

when you think about it tho pliny the elder is kind of the funniest guy in the world like. he wrote all these books about natural history that he was wrong about where he confidently claims things like “some animals only have blood during certain parts of the year” and then when mt. vesuvius erupted and destroyed pompeii and herculaneum he said “oh mt vesuvius is exploding? let me go check it out” and then he died

actually when I was in 8th grade and obsessed with twilight my master plan as a twilight vampire was to sit around in famous shipwrecks like the super deep ones where they can only send robots with cameras from their submarines and when they sent one down i’d be sitting there, pretending to drink out of an old tea cup you know for the drama of it all and the guys in the submarine would know what they saw and that it was real footage but who else would believe them? no one important.

but it didn’t stop there. at the next party they threw to celebrate one of their latest finds, some museum-y banquet idk I was 13, I was going to show up. I was going to show up and make eye contact with them one at a time from across the room and they were going to lose their goddamn minds and then before the volturi could catch wind i was gonna be back in the ocean. how could they find me?

the drama. the theatrics. i can’t believe i didn’t realize i was gay right then but that’s another story, also involving vampires,

[wuackamole]

hate to burst your fantasy, but

1) vampires don’t show up in film

2) vampires can’t cross moving water much less sit at the bottom of the ocean

[vampireapologist-archive-deacti]

you’ve got me a in a difficult position here because on the one hand, this post is specifically about vampire lore in Twilight, so you’re wrong, but on the other hand, saying “you clearly didn’t read twilight” doesn’t exactly make you look like the bad guy here

Something deeply painful is the fact that seasons, especially fall, dont feel the same. Not because of individual maturity but because climate change has impacted the weather patterns so so so much that we cant even experience the same annual shifts that our ancestors have for centuries

I feel displaced, i yearn for the spring, summer, fall, and winter that i can barely remember experiencing

[brightsunnydaysofcastamere]

To make things worse, if you’re under 50-60 years old, you can’t even remember what normal seasons were like because you weren’t alive to experience them

In the graph above, you can see how there’s a clear tipping point in the late 1970′s, which is when global temperatures first began to really skyrocket.

I was born in 1997, so about 20 years after this shift occurred. There is an immense difference between the climate now and the climate I remember growing up in, but the way I experienced the seasons in my childhood was already fundamentally different from what the seasons were supposed to be like! My parents were pretty much the last generation to experience a normal climate, and that’s just... incredibly sad

Unless you were a tech at NASA back in the day, when one time some hydrogen a) escaped in a particular building, and b) caught on fire. This was extremely difficult because hydrogen does NOT burn on the visible spectrum humans evolved to see (and flee). Rather, it technically does, but it’s so pale that in practice, no one could see it. Additionally, pure hydrogen burns without smoke and with so little ambient heat that you can’t really sense it till you walk into it. So, per the lore, for a few days all the techs in that building just walked around brandishing brooms in front of them like lances. If your broom lit on fire, congrats! You have located more burning hydrogen! Do not proceed!

[mias-back-from-the-dead]

oh my god it's real and it was LITERALLY called "the broom method" holy shit

crazy how at my age my parents already had children (that they were in no way equipped to raise)

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

nutty how i'm not even in a relationship but at my age my parents had been married for years (and established a dynamic so dysfunctional that i would spend my adolescence wishing they'd get divorced)

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

it's almost like it's not a bad thing that millennials are getting married and having kids later in life (or choosing not to do those things at all if they don't feel well equipped)

#the homeowner thing though. that i am bitter about

I’m a pacifist like institutionally but I’m absolutely certain that violence solves at least some problems on a much smaller level. I don’t believe in wars or nuclear weapons or military campaigns I do believe in the power of that guy who punched the nazi in the face so hard his entire media presence immediately crumbled to dust

GEORGE: You know Jerry, I gotta say, I'm pretty UNNERVED at the impossible hallway outside your door.

JERRY: What do you mean, impossible?

GEORGE: I mean, in the dimensions of this building, it should not exist! It is a thing that should not be!

JERRY: George, that's ridiculous, you walk through there all the time.

GEORGE: And yet I cannot grasp how I manage to move through that space! It's a NonEuclidean hallway Jerry! NonEuclidean!

JERRY: What, you're crazy, I think that hallway is VERY Euclidean! It's a perfectly Euclidean hallway!

***KRAMER bursts through the door, somehow he is upside down***

JERRY: Kramer, do you think our hallway is NonEuclidean?

KRAMER: Oh, you're just putting that together now, huh?
