The ED on the last Stone Ocean episode features a very special song 🦋💙

[alannah-corvaine]

A Scion road trip would look like:

Thancred driving

Y'shtola in shotgun with the map

But she's really navigating from memory from making the same trip 7 years ago

They are 682 malms off course

The twins are squashed in the middle

Between Urianger and WoL in the back

Raha's in a carrier taking a nap after yowling for two hours

The radio only plays Eorzean NPR (Y'shtola's preference), American 80's classic rock (Thancred's), or acoustic KidzBop on AM radio

Alphinaud is out of juice boxes

Alisaie has to pee

Urianger is using tarot to divine if they'll all survive this trip

Tataru absolutely did not account for WoL stress eating an entire gas station worth of snacks in their trip budget

Or the side trip to see Eorzea's largest ball of yarn (Raha's idea)

The gas tank is on E and the nearest gas station is two Thancred mental breakdowns away

Followed by 10 hours of driving by nothing but scenic out of season corn fields (so basically Ohio)

Ryne and Gaia took their own car (a dark purple convertible) and passed Thancred hours also while blasting California Gurls at an obscene volume and singing along

They made it to the hotel just fine and now wont answer their phones because they're chilling by the pool

At one point Thancred stops the car to get out and yell at the sky for 45 seconds, then gets back in and resumes driving like nothing happened

Addendum: Estinien riding in the peace and quiet of the trunk with headphones in listening to Linkin Park while Gae Bolg is tied to the roof of the car like a surfboard.

YOURE TELLING ME THIS IS WHAT THEY'VE BEEN SHOOTING PROTESTERS WITH????

[katjohnadams]

YEP! These are meant to be skipped into the ground and then spin into people's legs and dissuade people from advancing or move them away. FIRING THEM AT PEOPLE'S HEADS IS 100% AGAINST THE PROPER USE. AND THEY ARE SHOOTING THESE AT MEDICS. DOCTORS, EMTS, AND NURSES. AT CLOSE RANGE. THESE CAN BREAK YOUR SKULL. THEY ARE NOT A JOKE. THIS IS LESS LETHAL LIKE A BASEBALL BAT IS LESS LETHAL THAN A SWORD. BOTH STILL CAN KILL.

[scottishwobbly]

I only found out today they’re meant to be fired at the ground to bounce back at protesters... I don’t think  I’ve ever seen the cops use them that way

Shimanami Tasogare

It is an amazing manga with an almost entirely LGBT+ cast and talks a lot about gender identity, sexuality and troubles faced by those within the LGBT+ community (especially for younger members). Also it is fucking BEAUTIFUL.

Kamatani Yuuki’s use of imagery and visual metaphors never fails to take my breath away.

Please just read the damn manga.

[sparkytheandroid]

I personally had an emotional breakdown because of this manga having a character I felt so connected to so definitely give it a read my dudes.

[seangetfreaky]

guys it’s getting an official North American release!

Volume 1 will be out on May 7th!

[tuxedo-rabbit]

I also want to point out that there’s ace/aro rep in this series too!

I was absolutely shocked, never expected to see that kind of rep in manga, but it’s there! The author identifies as X-gender and asexual, so it’s LGBT+ rep being written by an LGBT+ author!

It’s a really great series!!

The Sea Women of South Korea

photographs by Hyung S. Kim

“For hundreds of years, women in the South Korean island province of Jeju have made their living harvesting seafood by hand from the ocean floor. Known as haenyeo, or sea women, they use no breathing equipment, although a typical dive might last around two minutes and take them as deep as ten metres underwater. Wearing old-fashioned headlight-shaped scuba masks, most dive with lead weights strapped around their waists to help them sink faster. A round flotation device called a tewak, about the size of a basketball, sits at the surface of the water with a net hanging beneath it to collect the harvest. Some use a sharp tool to dig conch, abalone, and other creatures from the crevices on the seafloor. … “For me, the photos of the haenyeo reflect and overlap with the images I have of my mother and grandmother,” Kim says. “They are shown exactly as they are, tired and breathless. But, at the same time, they embody incredible mental and physical stamina, as the work itself is so dangerous; every day they cross the fine line between life and death. I wanted to capture this extreme duality of the women: their utmost strength combined with human fragility.” ”

PSA:

Among all the handwashing instructions and fun 20-second song suggestions, I haven’t yet seen anyone note that it is IMPOSSIBLE to wash your hands properly if your fingernails are long. If you can’t put your fingertips straight down against your other palm without your nails adding too much distance to do it, you cannot wash under your fingernails properly unless you use a nail brush every time. Hand sanitizer won’t do the trick either. If you can’t rub the very ends of your fingers against the other palm, your hands aren’t truly clean after you wash them, no matter how long you soap up. Please, during this global emergency, keep your nails short.

Yo, consider donating to Wikipedia, reasons for why they mainly point out for themselves, but they really aren’t asking for much. With so few good companies left that honestly want to help their people and spread knowledge instead of selling us to advertisers, lets try to keep them afloat! I don’t care if you use them to remember something about a character from your favorite series, or for learning about actors, or getting a more comprehensible summary for whatever your teacher was talking about in class. Please help keep this sorce of information available for everyone!

[sarcastic-nonfictionalist]

Reminder to donate!!! I got mine today and for the first time in my life I used my card online because this is extremely important to keep this place running. Please donate as much as you can!!!
