is this the line for a better flesh prison?

[notkatniss]

[damianwaynerocks]

ok but if bruce wayne somehow came upon zuko fresh out of banishment he would lose his mind.

black hair? check. bad parent(s)? check. trauma? double check.

bruce: how’d you get your scar?

zuko: my dad got mad at me for saying that killing people is wrong so he lit my face on fire and banished me.

bruce, vibrating with excitement, already pulling adoption papers from his utilility: that’s terrible. how do you feel about capes.

[explorerrowan]

Zuko: Do you mind if I wear this blue demon mask?

Bruce: *sniff, tear in his eye* Not at all.

*Zuko fighting the Joker*

J: "wan na kno w h ow i go t thes e sc ar s"

Z: *rips off mask* i don't give a fuck

I’m still stuck at the “batman has adoption papers in his utility belt”.

“Quick, it’s time to use the Bat-adoption papers!”

Okay, but you’re missing the best part of this.

Alfred and Iroh complimenting each other on tea while they discuss their overly dramatic children.

[damianwaynerocks]

iroh: once, i told zuko that he needs to work on his inter turmoil. he screamed at me that he had no such inner turmoil, and then proceeded to go to a cliff during a thunderstorm to scream at God to strike him with lightning

alfred: master bruce and i have that interaction at least three times per week.

[coffeebuddha]

[animate-mush]

I see your "Alfred and Iroh as tea bros" and raise you "Alfred and Iroh as tea rivals"

Consider

Iroh: you too must learn patience. Boiling the water ruins the delicate flavor of the white jade

Alfred: oh I'm dreadfully sorry - for some reason I expected this tea to have TEA in it

(later)

Alfred: *aggressively laying out full tea service with milk, lemon, sugar, and, just to drive his point in, jam*

Iroh: *dying inside*

[damianwaynerocks]

excellent addition

[whetstonefires]

hey bruce spent a lot of his bat-study abroad in the far east and has kind of a weeb weapon collection so proposal, what if Bruce appreciates Iroh’s tea

while Zuko is enthusiastic about cream and sugar

further fueling their dad-figures’ passive-aggressive rivalry?

[princesscolumbia]

You had me at Zuko vs. Joker, I was crying by the Eastern vs. Western tea service

[supreme-leader-stoat]

Wait a minute. Batman and Zuko have the same arch-nemesis.

2020 Barbie Signature Mermaids Redesign

When Mattel announced the poll that would decide which among four designs by Angel Kent would go on to become the 2020 Barbie Signature mermaid doll, I was in agreement with many other dollblr users and Barbie fans that they were disappointing. It was obvious that they had very obviously preferred and put much more effort and attention to detail into the blue-eyed blonde white doll, while making lazy and racially insensitive design choices for the other, darker-skinned dolls. Because Mattel's brand currently boasts its inclusiveness and makes much lip service about the importance of diversity in the toybox, the designs offered in this poll and the implications in the design choices made me and others upset. Obviously, the white doll and the Ken won the first round of voting. When the pictures of the prototypes were dropped three days ago and I saw that they had whitewashed the Ken's original colors to be white and blonde, I felt so angry that I went to the drawing board and cranked out these redesigns.

As a disclaimer, I am an entertainment designer by specialty and these designs were not necessarily drawn with product design limitations in mind regarding what's realistically feasible for mass manufacturing in 1/6 scale at a budget. My take on these four dolls borrow heavily from Angel Kent's released final drawings in general scheme, and actually use the exact same eyedropped colors. They are biased in favor of my own fashion preferences and personal favorite Barbie doll features as a collector, and lean more towards an entertainment project based style. However, I do still think that my designs, at the very least, managed to avoid making questionable choices regarding potential racial sensitivity and colorism.

I didn't do these redesigns to shame anyone at Mattel, Angel Kent, or those who voted for the doll that I voted for. I did them because I think that when a company vocally stands for racial equality and strives to create a truly progressive world in 1/6 scale, their product designs should reflect that stance. And maybe if an LGBT designer of color not employed by their company can whip out a version of their product that doesn't straddle a questionable line in two and a half days just out of simple passion for the issue and love for their doll, maybe the company itself can and should be held to that higher standard they earnestly believe in.

(Follow me on Patreon for the initial sketches and WIP of these drawings, plus in-depth design breakdowns.)

For reference, here are the actual designs and the prototypes.

The family vlogging channel the ace family apparently has like an animated mascot for their channel now called lovie and they force their five year old daughter to do who framed Rodger rabbit acting where she’s referring to this creature and talking to it like it’s there but she’s talking to nothing and they animate it in later. Used for sponsorships a lot and also they refer to it as a part of their family and this character has its own account on Instagram where it will call the parents mommy and daddy.

This is a legitimate tactic for hiding illegal data. Bury it in MASSIVE amounts of junk data. Chances are if OP took the time to sift through it they would find something pretty bad. Probably cp.

[amalgamasreal]

100% those videos were interlaced with CP frames and that if they were opened with a specific player they’d have worked. When I worked for a data backup/retrieval company we were told to be on the look out for these types of files because the last thing we wanted was to be aiding a pedophile. In my 1.5 years there I assisted in the arrest of 3 of them that came in. 

We had a list of file types, common file names, and specific programs to look out for along with an entire process of what to do if we found them. That process being: call the local FBI field office, have them verify our findings, set up a staged time for the customer to come in, and after they took possession of their data the FBI would pick them up outside. It was always insane to me that these people who KNEW that they had CP on their computer would willingly bring it to a company that they KNEW was going to be looking at their data. It was basically one step shy of calling the cops to report your stolen illegal drugs.

A few years after that I was at a huge LAN party in texas and ended out narcing on a pedo that was just outright sharing some of those common filenames on the LAN. As soon as I saw r@ygold and reelkidmov available out there I informed the host and they called the cops, was a whole to-do.

Well, that's horrifying

Yup.

[weaselle]

every few months I forget about this and then see it again and it is always one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen.

So this time I looked it up, I wondered how to get one and how much it cost. Turns out  it was a bit hard to find, actually, and that’s because it’s no longer called the Ogo, it’s called the Omeo.

They are pretty advanced as a product now, in terms of accessories, color options, etc (they have an off road conversion kit and stuff!). They are kind of expensive, tho not necessarily when compared to other wheel chairs, which cost anywhere from a couple hundred bucks for a shitty one, to like 4k for a high end electric one. An Omeo will cost you just under 2k.

Here is their website, if you want to learn more: https://omeotechnology.com/

talk about getting two birds stoned at once

[the-library-alcove]

That just means that the local economies will be able to recover without a predatory megacorp sucking them dry as well!  What a win-win!

And that’s not a joke: The average Walmart Supercenter costs taxpayers between $900,000 and $1,750,000 (since they don’t pay their employees a living wage, the workers have to go on public assistance programs) this is intentional, since Walmart accepts SNAP, it means that they not only get to skimp on paying their workers properly, they can also funnel taxpayer money into their bottom line.
