Two medieval instruments are having a conversation
“I’m a harpsichord.” Says the first.
“I’m a lute.” Says the second.
“No you’re not!” Says the harpsichord. “You’re that other string instrument!”
The second looks at him, shocked, and says, “Sir, are you calling me a lyre?!”
One dark night in Dublin, a fire started inside the local chemical plant …
In the blink of an eye, it exploded into massive flames. The alarm went out to all the fire departments for miles around. When the firefighters appeared on the scene, the chemical company president rushed to the fireman in charge and said, “All our secret formulas are in the vault in the center of the plant. They must be saved. I will give 50,000 pounds to the fire department that brings them out intact.”
But the roaring flames held the firefighters off. Soon more fire departments had to be called in as the situation became desperate. As the firemen arrived, the president shouted out that the offer was now 100,000 pounds to the fire station who could bring out the company’s secret files. But still, the firefighters could not get through.
From the distance, a lone siren was heard as another fire truck came into sight. It was the nearby rural township volunteer fire brigade, composed mainly of old men over 65. To everyone’s amazement, that little run-down fire engine roared right past all the newer sleek engines that were parked outside the plant. Without even slowing down it drove straight into the middle of the inferno.
Outside, the other firemen watched as the old timers jumped off right in the middle of the fire and fought it back on all sides. It was a performance and effort never seen before. Within a short time, the old timers had extinguished the fire and had saved the secret formulas. The grateful chemical company president announced that for such a superhuman feat he was upping the reward to 200,000 pounds and walked over to personally thank each of the brave firefighters.
The local TV station caught the thank you on film and asked the chief, “What are you going to do with all that money?”
“Well,” said Paddy, the 70-year-old fire chief, “the first thing we’re gonna do is fix the brakes on that bloody fire truck.”

what do you mean elon musk did a nazi salute on live tv at the united states presidential inauguration twice and is now erasing the evidence off the internet by replacing the footage with the crowd cheering instead?

If you had been tasked with writing a Halo TV show from the beginning, how would you have tackled it?
My honest fantasy for a Spartan based TV show would be to start in training or the early years of the Covenant conflict. And I'd have used the book characters. (Not going to lie, I'm salty Alma-005 stole my boy James' number.) But I also know that isn't likely to have been marketable to the wider audience they were aiming for.
I'd have probably pulled for a less Spartan based show and gone with a show based in the Halo universe. Maybe the first couple episodes could have followed Avery Johnson around to get an idea of the danger of the insurrection and the shock of first contact with the Covenant.
Master Chief would have shown up after I'd built up Spartans as the bogeyman for people like Kwan who wanted independence, but also as the propaganda hero put forth by the UNSC for the Covenant threat. So when he appeared you wouldn't quite know what you were getting.
Then massive fight scene and the evacuation of a planet, followed by its glassing. And this is the helmet removing moment where you realize they're just people, as Master Chief and his Spartans watch the planet being destroyed on the last ship that's going to get away.
I'd have liked an episode from an everyman perspective. Just Joe from accounting and how all of this impacts him. And what the little guy can do to help.
Then an episode going between multiple Spartan teams out on assignment to give a scope of how massive this Covenant threat really is. (Grey Team, Black Team, all the colors. And I'd steal a scene from the poor Spartan III Alpha Company to bring home the tragedy. Jane, Robert, and Shane's death scene. Always hits me so hard.)
It would have been nice to get a Covenant character in there too.
But, anyway, I did like what they did with the show, and I felt it really hit its stride in season two. (I also appreciated it didn't drop plotlines that were unpopular, but changed up some of the characters instead.) Ugh. I really wanted that season three!!
Better late than never
The comedic timing of this strip fits the tone of the show perfectly, right down to Stan putting a quarter in the meter after ramming it through the wall.
I choose to believe this is canon :D
OMG
Ghost Padme is wearing neither the clothes she died in nor the clothes she was buried in, which can only mean one thing Padme Amidala brought her wardrobe with her to the afterlife, because wearing the same outfit for eternity was to her a fate worse than death
okay i saw this comment and im screaming and have to reblog again

@itsbasil thanks for the inspo, king
I think one of my favorite parts about the Lunar Chronicles is how Carswell Thorne was minding his own damn business and then suddenly he’s part of this rebellion against the fucking moon. He didn’t really have a reason to be part of it, not like the others did.
For comparison, Cinder is the missing Lunar princess Selene, so duh she’d be involved, it’s up to her to stop her crazy aunt. Kai is a whole emperor of a country and is the one being very pressured by Levana into marrying her. Scarlet was also kinda minding her business but then the police didn’t do their job so she got swept up in the wolf army and that’s pretty reason enough (also her grandma died at the hands of the wolf army). Ze’ev is a rogue wolf soldier who wanted to make his own decisions and a life for himself. Cress was Levana’s best hacker and a witness/victim to the systemic mistreatment of shells like herself. Winter, being the Queen’s stepdaughter and one of the first and closest victims to Levana’s cruelty, had every reason to turn on her stepmother but she would never turn her back on her people, especially the servants and other lower-class citizens who saw her and her refusal to bow to Levana’s demands/use her Lunar gift at all as an act of rebellion itself. And Jacin had been silently rebelling against Levana since he was 15; he is Winter’s closest (and only, it seems) friend on Luna, so he too was witness to many of Levana’s atrocities, along with the atrocities of the thaumaturges he assisted.
But Thorne? He’s a petty criminal. He organized a prison riot over fucking soap. He has no personal connection to a rebellion. He joined cause he wanted to cause chaos. And I respect that.
i just realized this is funny every month of the year actually
