why are star wars planets more boring than earth and our solar system like sure we’ve seen desert, snow, diff types of forest, beach, lava, rain, but like… 

rainbow mountains (peru)

red soil (canada/PEI)

rings (saturn’s if they were on earth) 

bioluminescent waves

northern lights (canada)

salt flats (bolivia, where they filmed crait but did NOTHING COOL WITH IT except red dust?? like??? come ON)

and cool fauna like the touch me not or like, you know, the venus flytrap.. and don’t get me started on BUGS like… we have bugs cooler than sw aliens

BASICALLY like???? come on star wars you had one (1) job where are the cool alien species

[wearethesparkk]

I KNOW!! I did a report on filming locations in Star Wars last year and just made a list of places that looked so surreal they could make a convincing other planet. You covered some on my list but if I could just add a couple more:

Tsingy di Bemaraha, Madagascar

Zhangye Danxia, China (similar to the Rainbow Mountains in terms of appearance)

Chocolate Hills, Philippines

Giant’s Causeway, Northern Ireland

So many missed opportunities with cool ass things on Earth, Lucasfilms smh…

[memcjo]

Earth is effing amazing!

[isnerdy-deactivated20190101]

Quebrada de Humahuaca, Argentina

Lake Retba, Senegal

Tepui, Venezuela

Tianzi Mountains, China

[bunjywunjy]

these would make amazing Star Wars planets OR fantasy material:

Tsingy du Bemaraha, Madagascar again (but a different part)

(those are razor-sharp, if you were wondering. very little of this area has been explored because YIKES)

Lake Natron, Tanzania

(looks cool, but is alkaline enough to Kill Your Shit)

Lake Baikal, Russia

(the deepest lake in the world, seriously)

and I’ll wrap it up with Son Doong Cave, Vietnam, the largest cave in the entire world.

it puts anything Dagobah has to offer to absolute shame:

(seriously, the largest chamber is 660 feet high. you could jam a fucking skyscraper in there and still lose it) 

anyway I really like caves thanks for coming to my ted talk

The premise of minimum wage, when it was introduced, was that a single wage earner should be able to own a home and support a family.  That was what it was based on; a full time job, any job, should be able to accomplish this.

The fact people scoff at this idea if presented nowadays, as though the people that ring up your groceries or hand you your burgers don’t deserve the luxury of a home and a family, is disgusting.

[oncelerfucker69-deactivated2019]

Also if a livable wage breaks the system then the system deserves to be broken.

[petty-revenge-stories]

Think you're petty by taking my birthday off if I won't give you Father's Day? Honey, I'm the queen of petty.

So let me preface this by saying I work in a call center. We get four weeks of paid vacation and we go through bids for vacation days starting in November, for the following year. Bidding is based off of seniority which I’m fine with but sometimes it can suck. In my particular role it can be pretty awful because we only have 4 people for our role so only one person can be scheduled off a day.

I have this coworker, let’s call him Steve, well Steve has more seniority than me, so since we work the same days he gets first dibs. So when our bidding started I already expected him to have the week of Christmas off, which is pretty usual for him, so no big. I approached him one day just to ask if he was planning on taking a certain day of (my birthday) and he said no because it’s not during the usual week he takes off. So I start walking away and he had the audacity to call after me saying, “Actually, I’ll let you have your birthday off if you let me have (insert hallmark holiday here), I’m going out of state that weekend.” I was all sorts of annoyed. What kind of weak, petty ass bullshit did he think he was going to get away with here? I didn’t say anything and continued to walk away.

Well, Steve had been talking about trying to get a leave of absence for a while because he was “too stressed”. Somehow he convinced some doctor he legit needed time off (he didn’t, he tries going out on leave every year towards the end of the year to get all the “winter” holidays off) and he left the week of Thanksgiving.

Here’s where the petty comes in. Now when Steve left, we had only done one round of vacation bidding. There were still three rounds left for us to go through, and guess what you can’t do when you’re on a leave of absence? You can’t bid on vacation

So while Steve was “finding himself” or whatever bullshit he fed everyone else, I was bidding for everything I knew he wanted. Week of Christmas? I got it. My birthday? Got it. Kids spring break week? Mine. Fourth of July week? Ohhh yeah. Father’s Day? No out of state trip for you Steve! And to top it all off, I took his birthday off, just for good measure.

He still has yet to bring it up, and I know he’s seen what days are available and what days aren’t. I just can’t wait til he brings it up. (source)

Consider your travel arrangements before you ruin our friendship.

This was a long time ago now but a recent post I was reading reminded me of this event and I felt it belonged here. Towards the end of sixth form (relative to ‘senior year’), I had two 'friends’ who I spent most of my time with. Let’s call them Becky and Michelle. Michelle was very quiet and generally a nice person but Becky had a mean streak when she wanted to, although it had never been directed at me. I’d known them both for 8-10 years through school so I liked to think we were close.

One day, Becky and Michelle asked me what I wanted to do for my birthday. At the time I really, really wanted to see the new Harry Potter film but I was pretty sure it wasn’t their thing, so while I suggested it, I also made it clear we could do something else if they wanted to, no big deal. But much to my surprise, they both agreed on the spot. Awesome. We made the plans - I was going to drive because I had just passed my test (the cinema is a 20 miles/30 mins drive in the next town over), we’d grab food and then see the late showing.

CBS has greenlighted another multi-camera comedy pilot, an untitled half-hour from The Late Late Show with James Corden and Drop the Mic executive producer Ben Winston and CBS TV Studios. Written by Tim McAuliffe (The Last Man on Earth) and Austen Earl (9JKL), the project centers on a young married couple whose evenings have become comfortable and routine. Their lives are completely upended when a young musician moves into their spare bedroom and brings with him the complications of being an up-and-coming mega pop star — sometimes even the paparazzi.

let’s discuss how ben winston pitched a show about harry living in his attic

[rosegoldhl-deactivated20180715]

To be honest, I don’t know what is worse… Taking advantage of a closeted boy and using one of the various bullshit fake stories to create your ugly sitcom or taking advantage of a young popstar’s real life and exposing it to the whole world, pretending you give a shit about him and you are his friend, while you reinforce an ugly image. Pick and choose.

SCIENCE HAS CONFIRMED THAT DOGS LOVE US BACK BECAUSE THEY GET THE SAME RUSH OF OXYTOCIN WHEN THEY LOOK AT US THAT WE GET WHEN WE LOOK AT THEM

[moonchild-robina]

Are you telling me that dogs are looking up to us and think “omg what an adorable fucking cutiepie”?

[psithirisma]

a while ago I read an article about how dogs love us back, but recognize that we’re different from them, while cats see us as bigger and clumsier than them, but do not consider us different  

[lavendergrandpa]

Dogs: I am fuzzy creature and you are a different adorable creature and I love you!!!!! Cats: I am lanky and graceful and you are a giant mess

[purrypixel]

This is why cats occasionally try to bathe and feed us

[deadmomjokes]

It’s true; cats see us as giant dumb hairless babies. That’s why they bring us half-dead prey– to teach us how to hunt and eat properly. That’s why they attack when we rub their bellies– that’s how parent cats teach kittens to defend themselves. That’s also why they meow– cats communicate with other adults on a frequency we can’t hear, but meow at kittens because their ears aren’t fully developed. They even specialized a set of meows they use only for humans, because we are especially deaf babies.

We are all of us dumb kittens.

Wait weren’t they her shitty parents in Matilda?

[ficklesunfries]

Yep! It was right after filming it, actually.

What’s even better is that Maras mother LOVED the book Matilda. She loved it so much that she got her daughter the part, however she died before she got to see it. Or so Mara thought. Apparently just a few weeks before she died Danny Devito went in to the hospital with a rough first edit of the movie and got to let her watch it before she passed.

this post has nothing to do with my blog but I love this so much and I had to share

[woodelf68]

I could see it being called Leopard Bread, too. But Giraffe is even better.

[coneycat]

Customer service done right.

[coneycat]

Okay– so the picture of the bread made me wonder whether the name change stuck, so I Googled “sainsbury’s giraffe bread” and found not only numerous references to “Giraffe (Tiger) Bread” from the Sainsbury’s Web site, but also this followup story on the change from the BBC:

Tiger Bread renamed Giraffe Bread

By the time the BBC story was written, however, customer manager Chris King, aged 27 1/3, was no longer employed at Sainsbury’s. Apparently he’d left the company to go study to be a primary-school teacher. Perfect.

This makes me smile so hard :)

The Pickle Burger.

This is a very tame story /w a fairly satisfying end.

During college I worked a fair amount of crappy jobs. One of them being McDonalds. I had worked my way up from Grill guy to running the back end. This is not a promotion, it’s barely a change of physical position, but it is less hot. One of the perks is that I get my very own headset to listen in on all the orders so that I can get a head start on making the items as the person is asking for them.

It had already been a long day and we had been hounded by customers odd orders and yelled at by the terrible management. There is always a delicate balance between what we can actually do for a custom order vs what the customer actually wants. Today I’m squarely against the management. Today we had Hailey who was a particularly crappy manager and she had something against me for no discernible reason. So today I was not just adding 1 extra piece of cheese here or 1 extra squirt of mayo there. No, I was making exactly what the customers wanted and I gave zero shits if the store paid for it in inventory.

My opportunity quickly presented itself when a man came through the drive through. He ordered a double cheese burger with extra pickles. After his order was placed and the lady running the drive through confirmed his order he said through the speaker “Hey, I mean it I want extra pickles!” Protocol means I give him another pickle or two from the normal amount of pickles. Yes there is a protocol for this stuff.

Not today my pickle loving friend! I pickled the shit out of this double cheese burger. It was essentially like 3 full pickles with some burger around it. I grinned to myself as I wrapped up my pickle monstrosity and slid it down the tray to be picked up. I giggled, thinking how the guy would open his pickle burger and and question my sanity. And I especially chuckled to myself about how, under Hailey the evil shift managers watch, the store would be slightly pickle deficient!

I fully 100% thought that was the end of it, who comes back to the store because someone followed their order TOO CORRECTLY?

The answer was, this man.

I was working on another order say ~5 minutes after the Pickle Burger was birthed when I heard someone loudly ask for a manager. I peaked through the hole to the front to see a man holding my Pickle masterpiece in his hand and my stomach sank. I was certain this guy would like his pickle burger. Hailey walks up front and asks what the problem is, he looks at her and he opens the pickle burger, it was like Link holding the Master Sword, it was so beautiful one could almost hear angles singing in the background and I could swear the florescent lighting brightened above it’s splendor.

The man looks at Hailey and says “This is what I mean! Finally one of your guys makes a burger right! When a customer asks for extra pickles, this is what they want! I want you to tell your guys back there that they’re doing a great job!” and with that, Pickle man bounds off to enjoy his lunch.

Hailey told me that was too many pickles and to stick to protocol. Fuck you Hailey, I’ll do what I want.
