the thing about the You Don't Have To Hand It To The Pope situation that makes me really insane is the sheer number of people going "oh okay so now the pope is responsible for everything bad the catholic church has ever done? all of that is his fault?🙄🙄🙄" as if we're talking about some random schmuck with a rosary and not the world's #1 head catholic bitch in charge in his fancy little dipshit hat sitting on a throne made of pilfered riches and the bones of people who were killed for his god. like yeah actually that guy kind of does need to be held accountable for the past and present crimes of the organization he's in charge of actually. that's sort of what being the boss entails.

What!? There was bidding going on my guy Stumps?! ...Well I guess he's not my guy Stumps any more... Aw dang...

[littleguysdaily]

I can give you a Stumps clipping and then you'll have another Stumps

[historiaetal]

That raises many disturbing questions

[littleguysdaily]

Nah, Goofy and Pluto raise disturbing questions. This is just how plants normally work.

[kyropinesis]

excuse me, but goofy and pluto are like humans and other apes. closely related species but not the same. this can be seen in how goofy walks plantigrade and bipedally, while pluto is digitigrade and quadrupedal

[sushi1056]

we are really going to have this debate today aren’t we

[kyropinesis]

are you going to argue that they’re different versions of the same species, which has different types of walking? when dogs and wolves are generally regarded as different species? and wolves and coyotes are different?

[sushi1056]

Obviously different species. Look at how they walk

[kyropinesis]

i am pointing out that pluto is digitigrade while goofy is plantagrade. that is not what is pictured

[littleguysdaily]

Sorry, gang, gotta weigh in on this one. Pluto and Goofy are both cartoon dogs. The idea of them being different species of cartoon dogs doesn't hold water for a few reasons. - Pluto does not have digitigrade legs. Here's a real dog with real digitigrade legs.

We should all know how that works. The weight rests on the 'toes', the bones which parallel our ankle joints are positioned higher and act as locomotive joints as opposed to weight-bearing joints, and the knee/hip are similar to ours. Okay, so here's Pluto:

Pluto puts his weight on his ankle, and his knee is the main locomotive joint. He's plantigrade. I'm actually finding it impossible to grab examples of him walking in a such way that doesn't suggest that he and Goofy have extremely similar anatomical structures, (minus Goofy doesn't have a tail and Pluto has less digits* - but those can be chalked up to individual variation.) *Sometimes Pluto summons a thumb out of nowhere in order to complete a gag so who knows.

Walking comfortably as a quadruped is not evidence of him being a different species; some humans can do that. He can otherwise emote as well as Goofy, shows as complex an emotional range as Goofy, is as much a character as Goofy is. Rarely we get Pluto's internal monologue, and it is complex and very human. The only reason he is considered less anthropomorphic is because he acts less anthropomorphic. And doesn't wear clothes; lots of cartoon animals don't wear clothes, though. But, I mean, Goofy can talk. Pluto can't talk. Right? - Pluto Can Talk Pluto only speaks in barks and some maybe human-sounding interjections (huh, yeah, woah), but his earliest incarnations delivered some dialogue. He could, once upon a time, speak some english and communicate with Mickey. His lines were brief, and his character's ability to talk was phased out pretty early.

It may be worth noting that 75% of his spoken dialogue was racist enough that The Walt Disney Company went back and redubbed those few lines with barking. So, I mean. That might explain why they don't let him talk anymore.

I think I started replying to all this with a different point, but now I guess my point is that the Goofy/Pluto situation raises so many questions that after taking the time to read more about Pluto and draft this reply, I am more convinced that Goofy and Pluto are the same kind of cartoon dog, and I have even more questions about what the hell is going on here.

[staroutofspace]

"Goofy doesn't have a tail" actually does lend credence to the distinct species theory. Unless Goofy is a tucking king, we must refer to the ancient wisdom:

If it doesn't have a tail, it's not a monkey Even if it has a monkey kind of shape. If it doesn't have a tail, it's not a monkey. If it doesn't have a tail It's not a monkey, it's an ape!

@kyropinesis is right, Goofy and Pluto are as distinct as monkeys and chimpanzees.

[littleguysdaily]

It does not lend credence to that; there are older (and newer) versions of Goofy that DO have a tail, just the majority of his design iterations (seem to) exclude it. There are also other explanations for why his tail went missing. If I see a guy with one leg I don't go "oh wow the missing link!"

If anything the inconsistency of this detail over the last century lends a lot more credence to the "tucking king" theory.

if i was born 500 years ago i would have been speculating that the two dudes who went to get firewood together were fucking

[neaborealis]

chat, how long do y’all think 500 years is. Romeo and Juliet was written in the 1500s. 500 years is not the Stone Age.

[elexecution]

why do u think people stopped collecting firewood after caveman times

[imsobadatnicknames2]

Many such cases

CORRECTION: it's a MINIMUM of two years. generally it's 100% of your wage in the first year, 70% in the second.

a dutch employer must also:

refrain from asking medical details. all they have a right to know is that you cannot work, the aspects of work that you cannot perform, and whether you're making efforts to recover

provide open consultations with a doctor specialised in occupational health

(partially) cover the costs of treatments that'll help you get back to work quicker and more sustainably

make efforts to prevent illnesses due to work (including burn-out and repetitive strain injuries)

provide temporary or permanent alternative working conditions (e.g., fewer hours, different tasks, ergonomic tools) if it's impossible or hazardous to the employee's health to (fully) return to their regular work and working conditions

provide assistance in finding an alternative employer if no suitable alternative work can be found within the organisation

the exact details can differ based on union agreements, the size of the organisation, specific contracts, and what have you. but this is the baseline for contractual permanent positions by law.

partially sharing because i have a lot of dutch followers this may sooner or later apply to, and partially to show the true extent of what's possible.

the dutch system is set up so that people can focus on recovery and making a healthy and sustainable return to work. in practice there's plenty of room for improvements on those fronts. but all in all, it's been shown to be more cost-effective than a continuous rotation of people getting more and more ill due to work until they reach a breaking point and have to recover for far longer than if those people had had the opportunity to recover at an earlier stage.

[kropotkindersurprise]

Dont worry the Dutch system is being actively destroyed by our america-loving right-wing parties, mainly the liberals, VVD, with help from their christian and fascist friends.

[queeranarchism]

& Dutch bosses/companies are still gonna be shitty in whatever way they can, including but not limited to:

Forcing you to attend consultations with a company doctor, pushing you to travel to attend your consultations.

Trying to get information about your illness from the company doctor (= illegal!).

Interpreting company doctor reports about your capabilities in bad faith, trying to force you to do more work than you can, etc.

Guilt-tripping you if you don't recover fast enough.

Trying to blame your 'lifestyle'.

If you think you are being fucked with by your boss: check your contract, check your CAO, and ASK YOUR UNION.

[queeranarchism]

#The Dutch have a pretty solid history of labor organizing and socialist resistance #so I give 'em good odds at fighting off the neo-liberal import

We're trying our best mate, but we've had nothing but right wing governments for the last 24 years. Union organizing is alive and kicking and there are some victories, but so much is constantly being destroyed that it feels a lot like 2 steps forward, 3 steps back, over and over for 24 years in a row.

[speggehtix3]

one of the "these can and should coexist" things to me is "there are numerous fat people who eat healthy and exercise and could beat the average skinny person in a hike" and "fat people who are fat and arent athletic and dont eat super healthy and do get winded walking up hills also are apart of fat liberation and deserve love too"

both of these are true and both deserve love and to be able to be accepted and get proper healthcare

hi , please consider supporting my girlfriend

sierra has been going through an incredibly difficult time recently, and her parents' financial abuse has left her without any means of earning an income or moving out. she is effectively at the mercy of people who have every intention of keeping her dependent on them.

i love her and i want to see her thrive and be free to live her life in a safe environment, able to support herself. it means a lot to me, and everyone who knows and cares about her.

she needs around $2000 to move out and settle in seattle. i have over 200 followers. this goal is easily reachable if everyone gives $10. if you can't, a reblog would be highly appreciated

thank you for your time <3

$20/$2000

every single time time i try to check facebook marketplace for furniture i get jumpscared by this (admittedly sick) custom baljeet coffee table

[cometcrystal]

out of the backyard gang baljeet is one of the worst to make into a coffee table. ferb would also be pretty bad. phineas and isabella would be mid because they have those bigass heads but the skinny bodies. might be worse than baljeet and ferb if you're a person who cares about symmetry. buford would objectively make the best coffee table because his silhouette has the most evenly-spaced surface area. now if you wanna talk about pnf characters in general i think pet mode perry would be the best coffee table out of all of them
