Byakuya ~ True Light – Shunichi Miyamoto – D.N.Angel Opening
Lin Manuel Miranda; Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson; Terry Crews; Fred Rogers
Taika Waititi: Powerfully creative, Knows himself, Good humored, Takes his work and his relationships with other people seriously, Intentional as a creator
John Mulaney: Publicly supportive of his wife and other women in his life, Crafts humor without taking cheap shots at people, Supportive friend, Willing to laugh at himself yet confident
Andy Samberg: Uses platform and humor to publicly call out toxic masculinity and white privilege, Self-aware, Willing to cede the floor to others, Good friend
Will Smith: Very intentional about what type of actions he takes as a husband and father (if you haven’t watched him on The Red Table, you should), Good humored and professional, Dedicated to his craft putting in the hours and energy, Generous with his emotions and vulnerability, Responsive to others emotions and vulnerability
I read somewhere that one aspect of Toxic Masculinity is believing that being part of a “We” will erase the “I”; that selfhood is threatened by relationships with other people. It reads then that Healthy Masculinity (indeed, healthy people in general) create a “We” that enhances the “I”; that we can become more powerfully ourselves through relationships with other people.
All these men listed (and many more unlisted) live this type of energy, the one that builds connections without fear of losing the self - and in fact builds the self more with the building of connections.
This version of this post is important
yo take this quiz and find out how your rainbow looks like
Why the hell are all these new quizzes outing me so hard?
But…. that’s the point…. you should have saved so you weren’t living paycheck to paycheck….
Hey instead of being mean, I’m going to try to explain this in simple terms
The phrase “living paycheck to paycheck” implies there is no room for savings. You are spending your entire paycheck to survive. All of your expenses are going towards you barely being able to tread water. Any savings made are quickly lost when emergencies inevitably arise. Two back to back financial crisises? That’s your ass. That’s fuck you, you should have saved more, even though you couldn’t have.
Your comment is saying people who are struggling to save deserve that pain because they didn’t save. 800,000 currently furloughed workers with 800,000 different lives are carrying the burden of missing a month’s pay, bills, rent, childcare, food, debts indifferent to that burden - in what way is telling someone barely surviving they should have stopped being poor a meaningful statement? It isn’t.
Please be kinder to others

Yes to all of the above
All of the above👍
several personal attacks, especially the Marge and Homer one
I can fucking relate with all of the above
Happy new year, everyone!
If you haven’t seen DreamWorks Animation’s newest short film Bilby yet, now is your chance! “Bilby” was created as part of DWA’s recent short film initiative and re-purposes characters from the cancelled “Larrikins” project, an animated musical set in the Australian outback.
the fight is harder each year.
gotta keep going because nothing ever stops.
you deserve to be new and whole.
The first week of January (1-7) is ’New Year’s Resolution Week’. Take your time to answer these questions as honest as possible. These questions can give you detailed information on what you can do this year to be successful.
After you answer these questions, create reachable goals. Your goals need to be clear, specific and measurable. Keep in mind it must be realistic to achieve. Sometimes we create unrealistic expectation, that in turn will make us feel disappointed in ourselves.
im going to have a stroke
Instead try… Person A: You know… the thing Person B: The “thing”? Person A: Yeah, the thing with the little-! *mutters under their breath* Como es que se llama esa mierda… THE FISHING ROD
As someone with multiple bilingual friends where English is not the first language, may I present to you a list of actual incidents I have witnessed:
Forgot a word in Spanish, while speaking Spanish to me, but remembered it in English. Became weirdly quiet as they seemed to lose their entire sense of identity.
Used a literal translation of a Russian idiomatic expression while speaking English. He actually does this quite regularly, because he somehow genuinely forgets which idioms belong to which language. It usually takes a minute of everyone staring at him in confused silence before he says “….Ah….. that must be a Russian one then….”
Had to count backwards for something. Could not count backwards in English. Counted backwards in French under her breath until she got to the number she needed, and then translated it into English.
Meant to inform her (French) parents that bread in America is baked with a lot of preservatives. Her brain was still halfway in English Mode so she used the word “préservatifes.” Ended up shocking her parents with the knowledge that apparently, bread in America is full of condoms.
Defined a slang term for me……. with another slang term. In the same language. Which I do not speak.
Was talking to both me and his mother in English when his mother had to revert to Russian to ask him a question about a word. He said “I don’t know” and turned to me and asked “Is there an English equivalent for Нумизматический?” and it took him a solid minute to realize there was no way I would be able to answer that. Meanwhile his mom quietly chuckled behind his back.
Said an expression in English but with Spanish grammar, which turned “How stressful!” into “What stressing!”
Bilingual characters are great but if you’re going to use a linguistic blunder, you have to really understand what they actually blunder over. And it’s usually 10x funnier than “Ooops it’s hard to switch back.”
Pronouncing your own name with a foreign accent in mid conversation because you can’t switch the accent gears fast enough and then wincing at yourself as your ears scream bloody murder at you.
the second opening animation for Sailor Moon is literally one of the most aesthetically pleasing things I’ve ever seen so here’s the creditless / textless version

Firstly, I know this one’s slightly preachy, but I felt it needed to be said. The examples I chose were just off the top of my head. There’s many, many more. I know why animators do what they do. It saves time and money to create a cast of characters with the same body type. However, one must consider the cost of convenience. In the end, it comes down to a choice. We’re spending something in order to make our media: the question is, what would we rather sacrifice? Time and money, or diversity and realism? One could even argue that these sacrifices will have a greater impact on our culture than we realize.
After many requests, I’ve made another character tutorial, this time looking at the very basics of shapes. My next tutorial will explain the “Awesome Duo” featured in many shows. Star and Marco, Mable and Dipper…etc.
List of Characters featured: Ralph, Vanellope, Felix, Joy, Anger, Sadness, Jasper, Grenda, Star, Pikachu,The Joker, Dash.
