a small selection of things that activate my neurons

[thegeekyartist]

Mamma Mia (2008) is really such a fever dream. The night scenes obviously shot in the daytime. The props dept not even TRYING to make the actors look younger in the photos. The actors being drunk on uzo the whole time. The random camera zooms. Bill, Sam, and Harry having atrocious singing voices (just like real dads!). The locals being the Greek chorus. The Movie Musical Cinematic Universe's first openly gay character™. The entire thing taking place in TWO DAYS.

I love it so much.

where would we be if humans could eat their own asses

[nottnocommathebrave]

Are you comparing eating ass to the burning of the greatest library that ever stood?

[paladyke-deactivated20181212]

Yah

It’s a hell of a lot less racist bullshit than the original version of the chart, at least.

[woke-butt-deactivated20181011]

Racist against who????

[sailor-arashi]

Someone sent an ask about this, so I’ll just repost my response here with some editing and links, now that I’m not posting from mobile:

It’s racist because it assumes the slight decline of scientific achievement in Western Europe during the early medieval period somehow meant the entire world came to a screeching halt. It ignores the continuing rapid progress in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, India, and China, because that doesn’t fit the narrative of western supremacy.

Also everything about the Library of Alexandria is bullshit. It’s famous because it got mentioned in an ancient travel guide, and that’s the only reason we care that it was destroyed. Nothing was lost when it was destroyed that didn’t exist elsewhere. There were larger and more important libraries in the world by that time.  The Imperial Library of Constantinople was larger, more important, and existed until the 15th century in one form or another. The Library of Alexandria was impressive, but hardly unique.

It also wasn’t destroyed by any one person or at any one time.  It was destroyed in bits and pieces over centuries, with each successive event lessening the importance of the library as a center of learning. The famous “burning” even happened decades before Christ was born, much less Christians being around to be evil book burners that the myths surrounding the Library always claim.  The event people point to when they claim that it was destroyed by knowledge-hating religious leaders happened 400 years later and doesn’t even mention the Library, it just says that a temple was destroyed that used to hold part of the former archives of the library.   

TL;DR:  The so-called Dark Ages only happened in Western Europe (and really even that’s mostly a myth).  The rest of the world was just fine, and inventing Algebra and stuff during the period the chart shows as a flat black line of no advancement.

why are we acting like women are monoliths? women are just as likely to lust over the roided out old guy (not chris evans) as they are the skinny guy that looks like he'll blow away in a strong wind. all women lust over different types of men.

why are women expected to make every decision based on what a nebulous concept of a misogynist might think? like. i'm sorry that you make every choice based on what will piss off some random man who doesn't know you exist, but. skill issue. i don't care what my mother thinks about my choices, do you really think i care what some random guy thinks?

do these terfs/radfems (listen. i have to hope most feminists are actually intelligent people) realise that if a man is going to be sexist, he will be? why is it a woman's fault here? trust me, my sister is one of the most butch woman ever, do you wanna know what misogynist's say? that she has to dress/act like a man cause she "knows women are inferior". trust, that woman in the frilly dress who wants to be a housewife isn't making men misogynistic.

[singleteachmehowtomingle]

exactly! if you hate men that much, don't make them part of your decision process. like, that whole "dress anti-male gaze". funny enough, it's generally clothes that men also find attractive. the sole difference is it's not skin-tight.

babes. i promise you, men don't care that much. decenter men, and you'll be happier.

you ever have situations that make you want to take people by the shoulders and go "you are not 15 any longer. this behavior is no longer quirky and cute. it is exhausting for you and everyone else to act like a teenager you haven't been in a decade or longer. knock it the fuck off"

[menlove-archive]

lots of ppl making this about adults who have interests they find cringe but let me be clear this is about emotional immaturity. idgaf if you're 35 and like goku okay but can you have an adult conversation without making yourself the victim is the matter at hand here

[st1ckysweetz0mbii]

I fucking love monster hunters, and I love fucking them too.

I reject all incarnations of the addams family written like spooky goths who hate normies. The joke is that they're warm and welcoming and they don't even know that they're weird. Still might maim you though because they also think everyone else is into hardcore sadomasochism.

I saw some snippet of a callout post for an autistic trans woman where they list social faux pas she committed, and I think we allistic people should all feel 100x more ashamed of not telling people in the moment how we feel about what they're doing. I think its extremely evil and cruel to not only lie to an autistic person and blame them for it but also to feel justified shaming them for your behavior. And it's currently the social norm to do that

[pawberri]

Everytime we as allistic people sit and force a smile or sigh and act subtly grumpy or otherwise lie to an autistic person's face about how we feel about what they did it is in fact Our Fault that we are enduring whatever the autistic person is daring to try and share with us. You can literally say something out loud directly. The literal structure of our social existence will always traumatize autistic people unless you can give a fuck enough to consider it isn't their fault that you didn't communicate with them

[pawberri]

Even I couldn't understand this until my wife was in tears because I had internalized the idea that it was her fault that people were uncomfortable in a conversation where no one told her they were uncomfortable and blamed her for it. Allistic people punish autistic people for so many Percieved slights, or even decide together afterward what exactly the slight was and then make their collective judgment behind the autistic persons back. Not only do we get the benefit of communicating nonverbally through obtuse social cues the autistic person can't parce, we then get to say that we weren't going behind their back because we all did those social cues they are too disabled to understand Right in front of them. No, what you did was choose to suppress your feelings and then reap the social benefits of being in on the discomfort.

[bumblewyn]

this is literally why many autistic people genuinely worry that their friends secretly hate them, by the way. because many people in the past did.

[raven-the-ghost]

I have a cousin with autism and I'll never forget one day at a family party his dad made some stupid joke that meant literally nothing, but it was something people laughed at and I was able to understand the joke.

my cousin said "what does that mean?" and they just kept laughing, even furthering the nonsense joke. he said "what does that mean?" and no one responded. they continued the joke. my cousin got mad "what does that mean?" he yelled, which is when I said "it's a joke, buddy. don't worry about it, it doesn't mean anything" and he calmed down and literally didn't care anymore at all, he completely moved on.

the response from the rest of the room was silent resentment for ruining their fun, and his mom and grandma whispered "woah, that stopped a meltdown before it even happened." it made me so mad. he literally asked a question, they are well aware he's autistic, and instead of answering him they were basically insighting a meltdown in this six year old boy for their own entertainment.

Being kink positive makes it really hard to be a hater of media rip. I used to love watching “the WORST book I’ve read this year” booktube videos but now its like I hear them ask, “Who is this werewolf smut even for?” Omegaverse fans, next question. “Why would you write this?” Because they find it sexy, can we stop focusing on the ewie yucky kink part and focus on the fact that the author used the word knot five times in a single scene? It’s bad werewolf erotica, but it’s not bad because it’s werewolf erotica like come on
