My favorite form of redemption arc is “I hate that I have morals now”

[grifalinas]

Like “I realized that I was in the wrong and now I will work hard to atone” is good and all, but “how dare you infect me with morals” will always be so much more entertaining

[kedreeva]

They’re only about 1.2 million away, and a couple of weeks ago they were 4 million away. There’s a good chance that with a bit of noise made about this, they could rally for that home stretch. This would be a good time to tell your family, friends, co-workers about the project, as there are many people interested in donating to charities at this time of the year. Once you choose a donation amount, you can also select that it is a gift for someone else, if you’re interested in gift ideas.

If nothing else, please help pass on the news here!

Actual quotes from the Apollo 11 mission:

[antisolanum]

I swear to god, between this and all the middle ages monks writing about their hangovers in the borders of their illuminated manuscripts, and ancient Roman graffiti about bread and fucking, and the ancient Nordic child drawings we found, I’m beginning to suspect that people have always been people and it kind of rules

[overthinkinglotr]

 I’ve noticed that LOTR video games like LOTR Online and War in the North like to have a subplot where “Aragorn helps your player character on their journey right before he meets the hobbits in Bree!”

And I like to think that every single one of these subplots are CANON!

Right before the story began Aragorn got involved in 200000000 different stories that were happening just offscreen— .just offscreen, Aragorn was helping 232342344 random colorful characters who we never got to see. 

 Aragorn was “cheating on” the Fellowship with 100000 other Fellowships that he was also a part of at the same time!!

Like yeah, shortly before going to Bree Aragorn had a big adventure in Archet with all the characters from LOTR Online. Right before meeting the hobbits Aragorn met with Andriel, Eradan, and Frerin from War in the North and gave them all the information they needed to know for their big journey. Etc, etc, etc, etc.

And that’s why Aragorn was so Testy with the hobbits when they met in the Prancing Pony.

By the time the hobbits showed up at the Prancing Pony, Aragorn had been going on various quests with various groups of colorful characters without rest for like a week straight!!!! He was tired!!! 

That’s why Aragorn was just sitting in the corner of the inn staring at the hobbits instead of talking to them….Aragorn had given so many Quests in the past week that he was just drained, and didn’t have the energy to start a conversation anymore.

For Aragorn, taking the hobbits to Rivendell was like. Working his last long shift on a Friday night before he finally got to go home for the weekend.

No matter what, this is history.  No matter what, we can make a change Nov 2020.

Trump was impeached.  Holy shit.  He’s only the third president to ever be impeached.

If Senate convicts him, he’ll be the first president to ever be removed from office.

Let’s be real though–this isn’t likely in a republican senate.  It is not impossible though!

Even if Trump is removed from office, we will likely have President Pence.  Which.  Not much better.  Worse, maybe.  

Even if Trump isn’t removed from office, this is still a victory and still a historic event.  Seriously.  Third president to be impeached.  This’ll be in history books.

No matter what, the 2020 election is less than a year away.  No, it isn’t soon enough when Trump’s policies are doing real damage to people, but it’s something.  Lots of gen z kids will turn 18 and if they vote, if we all vote, we can make a change.  Let’s get somebody better, maybe even somebody good, in office in January, 2021.  We can do it.  

[kylorenshighwaistedpants]

Sorry for the politics but I’ve been seeing a lot of negativity about this. This is an amazing win for the American people, whether he is removed or not. Trump will go down historically as being impeached. This is a victory.

Vote, vote, vote in November.

it’s getting close to Thanksgiving in the US so i wanted to pass around a link to the Wôpanâak Language Reclamation Project

Donate if you can, and even if you can’t, spend some time this November educating yourself about the history of the very-much-still-alive tribe that sat down with the pilgrims, the continued history of colonization in America, and about the tribe/s whose land you are occupying.

PRESERVING LANGUAGES LIKE THESE ARE SO INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT!!!!!!

[redsparrow12]

From the about page:

“Recent sucesses include: The first American Indian language to reclaim a Language with no living speakers. There is a young child now being raised with Wampanoag as a first language. She is the first Native speaker of the language since the mid 19th century. ”

See that picture above? That’s a close up of my great grandmother’s immigration papers when she first came to the US back in the early 20th century. But my great grandma’s information isn’t the important part here. The important part is that line in the middle there about how they arrived in the country.

And how ‘stowaway’ is a legitimate, valid option to select.

So yeah. They absolutely just showed up, and that part of immigration history needs to be talked about a lot more.

REMINDER THAT TRAVEL VISAS AS WE KNOW THEM TODAY WERE INVENTED IN THE 1930S TO KEEP JEWISH REFUGEES OUT OF COUNTRIES THAT DID NOT WANT AN ‘INFLUX’ OF THEM, THEREBY FACILITATING THEIR GENOCIDE :)))))

This speech-language pathologist taught her dog 29 words, and he can even form full sentences.

Dogs actually do have a language center in their brains. They process language just the same way we do, just not as well.

They do understand our words. This is not true of all domesticated animals (horses, for example, can only manage to distinguish a relatively small number of spoken commands…but boy do they know what you’re really saying).

They don’t understand “just your tone of voice” as a lot of people think.

As of 2016 the record vocabulary for a dog demonstrating understanding of words is over 1,000.

So if you give them a way to talk back, they’re going to use it.

The development of language skills is probably a side effect of domestication and of being kept in close contact with humans. A dog that was a better hunting partner would be kept and bred and over time they developed a better understanding of language.

In other words, dogs are pretty dang smart because we need them to understand us.

And also that is a very good boy.

[sandersstudies]

^ Would like to agree and make one amendment - very good GIRL. This is Stella the dog!

Check out the owner Christina’s Instagram: one of the first things I saw was a video where the dog started barking and, when prompted by the owner, said “outside, look look look look look look look, come outside.” Which is basically exactly how one would expect a dog to speak. 

The owner described bringing an unknown package into the house, and the dog ran away to push the buttons for “help no no help help” which is also about what I expect goes on in a scared pup’s mind.

In another video, the dog tried to push a button, and the button wasn’t working. The dog paused and then pushed the buttons for “No. Help.” 

In yet another (which the owner seemed impressed by), Stella said “come eat come play.” The owner asked the dog which she wanted to do, to eat or to play? And the dog clarified “come eat.” After eating, then the dog tried to instigate play. So the dog may have been able to understand a short spoken question, and how “questions and answers” work, and also understands sequences, even if she can’t express them (”I want to eat, THEN I want to play”)

Stella can even recount short-term memories, like when her family returned from the beach for dinner and she said “water good, no eat, play”

By the way, the owner uses the buttons as well, which probably really helps reinforce their meaning. She uses them to say things like “Stella all done eat” or “Stella and Christina go outside, bye!”

Wanna know my favorite part? Stella sometimes pushes the buttons for “Stella good” when she’s done a good job. Stella IS good! :D She also makes phrases using “love you,” like “Christina, love you, come play!”
