Guys, guys, let’s get back into Animorphs!!!

They are all free to read with Applegate’s permission on the animorphs website!

Oh yeah babey

[gravityofstars]

She has also written some absolutely amazing books recently.

These are just a few of them. I read The One and Only Ivan to my students every year (and there’s a sequel coming out in May!).

Every one of her books I’ve read has been beautifully written. Yes, they’re written for children, but you won’t regret reading a single one of them. Applegate is hands-down my favorite middle grades author.

Read. Her. Books.

list of things about darth vader’s suit that really just. i really just can’t get over them. mentally i’m stuck at this impasse.

it has?? to charge???? it needs to charge???? he has to plug himself up once a month????? i genuinely never stop thinking about this???????

the fact that the suit has a drug gasket that dispenses not pain killers but diluted neurotoxin and SITH CHEMICALS?????

SITH CHEMICALS?????

apparently there are just needles sticking in his face at all times

to fit the control panel doohickey they ripped out most of his ribcage……. i’m not sure how good a metal box replaces a rib cage

IT HAS AN OFF BUTTON ON THE FRONT THAT YOU CAN JUST PRESS AND THERE’S ANOTHER OFF BUTTOM IN EXISTENCE THAT’S JUST. A FUCKIN. REMOTE. YOU CAN TURN HIM OFF LIKE AN RC CAR???

his boots have magnet clamps in them….. the only explanation for this is that neophyte vader kept collapsing because of pain and physical trauma so palpatine was like. that’s not good for my image. magnet boots. can’t fall over now

it’s climate controlled, but that’s on the belt, which is like. attackable place. if a stray shot toasts that and suddenly everything’s overheating that’s probably not. cozy. to a guy famous for getting rotisseried

all together it apparently makes him 300lbs, which is genuinely like. how in the actual fuck did he carry that like twelve hours post rotisserie. that’s like 120lbs extra weight on approximately a third the physical form. how’d the end of ROTS happen how did he just not collapse like MY WORLD IS PAIN AND I CANNOT MOVE

CAN ANYONE ELABORATE ON SITH CHEMICALS??????

there’s a lil backpack apparently underneath the tunic and the cape……. he has a small backpack……. but how does he REACH IT

not over his ribcage just getting like. tossed

The best part is that OP made a "today I fucked up" thread about it and...:

[theslowdeathofagradstudent]

I almost feel that it would have been an obligation to oneself to fuck David Bowie if asked, regardless of one’s interest in men. Can you imagine being a person who says “David Bowie wanted me, and I did not do it” and having to live with that knowledge for the rest of your life? To watch Labyrinth in your twilight years, and NOT be able to tell your grandchildren “I made love to that man in my youth.” Anyway, his dad definitely fucked David Bowie.

Don’t waste my fucking time, LEN, hop to it!

[survivor-trek-deactivated201308]

can we talk about how this was the 1960s

and a black woman just told a white southern dude to GET HIS SHIT TOGETHER AND DO WHAT SHE TELLS HIM

and she’s correct and just in doing so and everyone including the audience knows it

this was on tv

in the 60s

god i love nichelle nichols so fucking much

[lohlunat]

It’s great because most younger people today would barely blink at a scene like this, but then you remember what kind of time this was written in, and… bam.

[strikelikeahawk]

Also remember that DeForest Kelly went along with it. The white southern gentleman could’ve fought the scene, played it tougher …DeForest wasn’t like that. You know he wanted this moment as much as Nichelle did. It’s a beautiful moment that these two deliver perfectly, at the precise cultural moment it would have the best impact.

[specialagentace]

There is practically nothing about this series I don’t love. 

It was written by a man who had the imagination to dream up a world where poverty had been eliminated - where equality was simply a Thing - where an entire world of humanity had found a common thread and had moved from fighting each-other because there was nothing left to fight for (For good reasons rather than dystopian bad ones) and have turned their endless drive toward exploring the universe around them. 

It was unapologetic about it’s blatant sociopolitical commentary - it did not shy away from the hard stuff and it didn’t pull punches.

The cast was intentionally diverse. It put women and people of color and political enemies (russians) all together, working together in harmony, toward a common goal without falling back on stereotypes or dehumanizing any of them. 

And it was backed and produced by an independently wealthy woman who refused to let this little show fall to the sidelines because big production companies didn’t want it.  A little known fact: Lucille Ball, who owned Desilu Productions (Who bought out Desi Arnez’s portion when they divorced), gave Star Trek the green light. Later, she would save the show from certain cancellation by over-riding her own board and keeping the show. 

The producers consulted NASA and other scientific pioneers when creating their world - and in turn, the scientific pioneers looked at what Star Trek had come up with and strove toward recreating it. 

Science drove Star Trek and Star Trek drove Science. 

I f*cking love this show.

one time this nondescript guy came into my dunkin donuts and ordered a small black coffee with blueberry flavor shot, and for some reason that peculiar order stuck with me so much that when, seven months later, i saw him in the parking lot walking towards the door, i quickly made a small black coffee with blueberry flavor shot. he ordered it and i was already holding it. 

i would describe his demeanor that second time as “incredulous”

[honeylemony]

What the fuck who drinks that

[adz]

it’s such a perfectly bonkers order because like, most unusual orders are maximalist and sugary but this one just combines the most basic drink with the most incongruous little add-on. it’s the order of a simple, regular man who has something wrong with him

[phage-necro]

this post always makes me laugh. this guy has the weirdest drink order and he probably never goes to this dunkin’ if it took seven months for the barista to see him again. so think about a coffee shop you go to so little you’re not even sure if you’ve gone there before and you walk in and the barista hands you the drink you were about to order before you even ordered it. he will remember that for the rest of his life

[adulthoodisokay]

“it’s the order of a simple, regular man who has something wrong with him” gets me every time.

bisexual women shouldn't have to downplay the intensity of our attraction to men and bisexual women shouldn't have to add a disclaimer about how we don't actually like, like men and bisexual women shouldn't have to assure anyone that we like women more, or that we like men but we only love women, or that we would never be with a man voluntarily, yadda yadda yadda.... like what started as a joke about preferring women either because of a shared experience or because of the euphoria of realizing we could be attracted to women has turned into a game to convince everyone that we're not like those bisexuals. and the thing is!! a couple years ago we recognized this as a real issue but now we seem to have agreed that it's nbd because men suck anyways or whatever.......... whatever.

[fuckabilitypolitics]

and? when y'all say shit about how bisexual women don't have to center our lives around men because we can just be with women you're assuming our attraction and interaction with men is "centering our lives around them" or catering to them or performing femininity for them and it's ridiculous. bisexual women can fuck and date and marry men and it still doesn't mean we're centering our lives around them or sacrificing our values or betraying our communities to be with them. the audacity.

[the-bitch-mob]

fuck it. be creative even if you never really *make* anything. write out plot synopses of stories and then move on. design OCs you'll never use. make mood boards and concept art and don't do anything with them. life's too short to forget everything that inspired you and creation doesn't have to be "complete" to be worth the time you put into it.

Living in DC right now is really fun because you’ll go to the grocery store for the first time in over a week, see a white man buying tiki torches, and instantly decide that you don’t actually need eggs or milk or fresh produce and hightail it 

[oh-in-italics]

Living in DC right now is really fun because you’ll clock in at your place of work, which happens to be across the street from one of the city’s largest synagogues, and you’ll see four white bald men with american flag neck buffs as masks and black hoodies walk towards it and you will, for a moment, question whether people are about to die and debate what exactly it is you need to do about it

[oh-in-italics]

Living in DC right now is really fun because my family has decided to make the choice to stay in the city and stockpile groceries for the next two weeks. An estimated 20% of the city will be leaving to shelter elsewhere for the week of the inauguration. Any other time in US history, an inauguration draws in Washingtonians and Americans from across the continent. It is supposed to be a celebration of democracy. Instead, we have empty houses and a city preparing for violence waged by non-residents while our streets and our homes pay the cost.

[oh-in-italics]

Living in DC is really fun right now because you’ll get woken up at 6:17 am by the sound of humvees driving down your block. They are on their way to secure one of the dozens of streets, bridges, and highways that are being shut down to keep out white supremacists. A soldier in uniform waves good morning while you get your usual order from Dunkin’ Donuts. He has kind eyes behind the mask. You wonder who he voted for.

cool how militarized police will fire tear gas at protesters outside the white house so trump can get his photo op but be completely absent when 100+ trump supporters literally physically break into the capitol building
