@slewdbtumblng is still making me thirsty for Mii…
I never actually watched this but as a teen i was exposed to the character. Back then i used to think there couldnt possibly be any characters with bigger breasts.
And here we are, it’s 2018 and now i think Mii’s breasts are small by BB fetish standards.
if anyone's wondering why im reblogging old tumblr posts it's because the sleeper cell in my brain turned on to search for a meme
and im now discovering how this platform has directly impacted me over time
i just watched jungle de ikou last year and lord do i not recommend it but wow this was posted in 2018 and has been in my likes since then
I’ve made gifs of this fight scene and it’s been one of my more popular gif sets so here it is in all its glory. Karen Sheperd versus Cynthia Rothrock in Righting Wrongs aka Above the Law. I’m not sure what makes this fight so dope. Yes, the choreography is smooth as hell but is it also because it has a very distinct 80′s vibe to it? While Rothrock went on to be a massive martial arts star, Sheperd didn’t really fare as well. She made a number of movies but none of them ended up being genre classics like this one.
By the way, the entire film is amazing and a must for those getting into the genre. You can buy it here on DVD for a ridiculous $33 or you can get the import Blu Ray here for a little less. As far as I can tell it’s not streaming anywhere.
Again, when I finally get around to doing my giveaway, this will be a film I throw in the back as i have multiple copies.
Sailfish OS: One Day
Today’s gonna be a weird and long post, so let’s start slow and give you the choice.
We’ve had, for years, seen the constant back and forth between Google and Apple on their respective phone operating systems. Android, which has dominated the market on basically any device you can pick up here in the states, and iOS, which exclusively powers iPhones, iPods and iPads. Despite the two duking it out, Android does hold the highest market share. As of Q2 2018, Statista claims a whopping 82% market share for Android, and no other competitors really exist.
But, for years, I’ve been enamored by an OS that has been seemingly out of my reach, and has had a lot of drawbacks that prevented me from ever considering using it for more than an hour. An OS that’s been going strong for over 5 years, and might soon see a new breath of fresh air due to recent allegations to Huawei. So, after the break, let me tell you my tale of Sailfish OS.

it’s crazy that im alive to witness major effects of climate change. like it always seemed super vague and it was always ‘the polar bears won’t have anywhere to live’ but this shit is going to fuck everything up bigtime.
Most people don’t realize how serious it is. We’ve only got 50 years worth of resources left, if we keep going the way we are, and honestly, that’s optimistic. Aside from that, we’ve already gone over the calculated “point of no return”, so even if we immediately start sucking gasses out of the atmosphere and stop all transport and agriculture, we’re going to see oceans rise, sea life die, we’re going to be crammed into smaller land areas, places like Melbourne will be underwater, and the fallout will probably send us into an ice age anyway (long story, but basically the ice melts, cold water sinks, the ocean flow responsible for thermoregulation of the planet is interrupted, cue ice age).
I can already see it now. Forget the hurricanes for a moment:
-Hay isn’t growing at the right time. Last year, no one got good hay where I live, because the weather (which has been in the same pattern during hay season for as long as I’ve been alive) was whacked out.
-None of my animals grew coats correctly, because the weather is just all wrong, and they don’t know what season they’re in.
-We’re getting new temperature records globally; basically, all weather is starting to change already
-Where I live, there are always two weeks where we see echidnas everywhere, and then we don’t see them the rest of the year. that is, until last year, when we barely saw them, spaced throughout several months.
-Let me reiterate, the animals cannot tell what season it is because climate change is altering weather patterns that have been here for as long as anyone can remember
-We also have more acidic rain due to all the gasses, which is why we’ve got so many statues and whatnot corroding even though they haven’t changed for thousands of years
-We had a tornado start to form in Melbourne. That’s unheard of.
We have the technology to slow down climate change. If we want to survive for more than 50 years, we need to act now. NOW. We need to put in place all the technologies we have, and pour money into more scientific research.
And why haven’t we? Because politicians earn money from oil companies and don’t care about the future of the planet, because they’re not going to be here in 50 years anyway.
https://www.skepticalscience.com/ is a great website that debunks common myths about climate change! check it out! it has a wealth of information that’s super easy to understand and even comes in different levels in terms of learning.
i just recently sat in a climate change presentation and the physicist who gave the presentation talked about how if in the next 30 years we (not just Americans, but humans all over the world) do not cut down on carbon emissions (and this honestly boils down to policy changes that MUST be made amongst industrialists in “developed countries” but that’s a whole other conversation) climate change will ultimately become irreversible.
30 years y’all. that’s within all of our life times. and these effects are going to be pretty much the end of human civilization as we know it.
It’s time for people who will not live to see the consequences of their actions to give way to those of us who will. It’s time for those of us born in the shadow of climate change to stand up and start demanding our stake in the future be recognized as larger and more important than the greedy old men who don’t expect to be around that long.
the whole “30 years” thing is hella out of date, the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has given us 12, and that was last year.
Recycling etc. and cutting down your carbon print is great, but it’s not going to help. Just 100 corporations are responsible for 71% of global CO2 emissions.
Similarly, looking to your elected representatives to grant change from above will be too little, too late.
Get involved in grassroots community organising, before it’s too late to build the sort of world we could be proud of, nobody else is going to do it for you. And by you I literally mean anybody reading this. Here are some helpful groups:
Extinction Rebellion
Earth Strike
Food Not Bombs
Food Not Lawns
Demand Utopia
Even 12 years is optimistic already. This is our defining challenge as a generation and as a race, foisted upon us by greedy politicians and billionaires. If you don’t want to die of food shortage, you better get moving, because I cannot emphasise enough the importance of dedicating everything to this singular goal. This isn’t the time for wishy-washy deliberation; that passed a 100 years ago. Action needs to be immediate. Action needs to be now.
There are two climate change scenarios I was taught– this first is if we collectively get our shit together, the second is if we don’t.
Scenario 1: moderate
CO2 emissions peak in 2050, and fade out altogether by 2200 AD
Ocean gradually absorb excess, becomes carbonic acid in solution
Thermal maximum in 2200-2300 AD, 2-4 C higher than today
In 12,000 AD, temps still 1.1 C higher than today
Scenario 2: super-greenhouse
CO2 emissions peak in 2100 – 2150
Ocean gradually absorb excess, becomes carbonic acid in solution
Thermal maximum in 2500-3500 AD, 5-9 C higher than today
Full recovery takes 400-500k years
tl;dr we’re past the point of no return, and how we act now will determine the magnitude. Will the world start recovering in 12,000 years, OR will the world be dramatically altered for the next 400-500,000 years?
so basically it’s too late and we should do nothing, just accept that we’re gonna die and party
What the fuck’s wrong with you people?
What pisses me off more than the corporations causing this mess are the people going “guess there’s no point, time to lie down and die uwu”
The post has told you we have a LIMITED TIME in which we can reduce the magnitude of climate change - how are people not understanding that we’ve gotta now collectivize and fight bitterly for our future?
You want some actionable goals, okay: go out and VOTE. Educate yourself politically with the intensity of studying for an exam. Go to town halls, call your representatives, support parties with environmental platforms, donate money and time, and above all else, SHUT DOWN the people who choose to respond with nihilism. Apathy is a poison, and we can not tolerate it.

A detailed analysis of American ER bills reveals rampant, impossible-to-avoid price-gouging
For more than a year, Vox’s Sarah Kliff has been investigating hospital price-gouging in America, collecting hospital bills from her readers and comparing them, chasing up anomalies and pulling on threads, producing a stream of outstanding reports on her findings.
In her latest installment, Kliff digs deep into the famously bizarre world of ER bills and points out some of the most egregious ways in which these are rigged.
For example, if you are injured and also financially precarious, you might travel to a more distant ER just to be sure that the hospital you’re visiting is in-network for your insurer, but that means nothing. “In-network” ERs often staff “out-of-network” doctors, and there is no way to find out whether the doctor treating you is covered by your insurer until you get the bill: one of Kliff’s readers got bills for $8,000 from an out-of-network surgeon who treated his broken jaw at an in-network hospital.
And much of the care you receive at an ER is subject to bizarre price gouging: one of Kliff’s readers was charged $238 for two drops of the generic eyedrop ofloxacin which retails for $15/vial; the routine pregnancy test that ERs administer to women of childbearing years can cost up to $465, enough to buy 84 pregnancy kits at the pharmacy; and one Seattle hospital charged $76 for a squirt of generic neosporin. Not all hospitals gouge on all drugs, and many of these drugs are not being administered for urgent health problems – a halfway honest hospital could advise a patient, “We charge $238 for this eyedrop, why don’t you pick up a bottle for $15 next door and administer it yourself?”
Finally, Kliff uncovers wild variability in the “ER facility fee,” which is a cover-charge you’re assessed just for walking in the door at an ER. One of Kliff’s readers paid $5,751 for sitting in a hospital waiting room with an ice-pack and a bandage while waiting to see a doctor, but who left because she was feeling better and didn’t need care after all. Kliff’s work reveals that these “facility fees” are rising at twice the rate of other health charges, with no rhyme or reason.
All of this refers to people who come into the ER under their own power, out of an abundance of caution – for example, my daughter recently broke her collarbone, but we didn’t know that until we went to the ER for an X-ray, and if we’d less prudent, we could have iced it and made a regular doctor’s appointment for the next day, leaving her untreated and undiagnosed. But of course, ERs treat large numbers of people who are unconscious or in agony when they arrive, either on their own or on an ambulance gurney. These patients can’t possibly be expected to shop around, to demand to know whether their medicines are medically necessary (I once had a small eye injury that I went to get checked out on a Sunday just in case and had to stop the nurses from pumping me full of IV dramamine just in case it turned out I would need neurosurgery!), to evaluate whether the doctors are in- or out-of-network, and so on.
(We ended up paying $2,400 out of pocket for our daughter’s ER visit, including $2.50 for a generic tylenol, despite having gold-plated insurance from Cigna)
Kliff’s work reveals the whole story of “market based medicine” to be a fiction. Markets are regulated zones where consumers compare the offerings of producers and make purchase choices based on their information. To call being wheeled unconscious into an ER and raced into an operating theater and then presented with a bill months later a “market transaction” is to make a terribly, grisly joke.
It’s as good an argument for Medicare for All and single-payer health care as you could ask for.

Remember that hospitals around the world exist without this price gouging. This goes entirely to line the pockets of healthcare executives.

literally have had this queued for a year
In honor of the holiday
Y’all gonna just forget Nichijoint like that?
This is the only obnoxious weed joke post I’ll post all 4/20 but some of these are legitimately funny
How could you forget this one?
i was always proud of my friend for making one of these
danny fenton: -wears a shirt to the water park -accidentally uses the womens restroom -“i would tell you to use the mens room but i dont think you qualify” -chest occasionally bulges in his ghost suit -is a trans boy
reblog this make cis people mad that im “ruining their childhood”
stable clone of him was a younger girl named danni
the series is literally about him keeping his identity a secret from his parents, believing that if they found out they’d stop loving him as their child and even kill him.
said identity is only known by his closest friends and others in the “community”.
After his college-age sister accidentally walks in on him altering his appearance and thereby learns his identity, she becomes clumsily obsessed with protecting him and being an ally.
Sam was able to disguise herself as him effortlessly.
👏🏼Danny 👏🏼 fenton 👏🏼 is 👏🏼 trans 👏🏼
I never even watched this show, but fully support this
Yes, it was debunked by Butch Hartman.
However, Butch Hartman has also been a confused gentleman for a while. Not in the weird Dan Schneider foot thing, but still weird on his own terms.
So make of that what you will.
I hope one day that history looks back on ronald reagan as one of the 20th century’s most vile and disgusting serial killers
may i ask why
Remember when like 6 Americans had ebola and it was an international emergency, and Obama flew out to meet survivors? Here is a list of things the United States government did in response: -Increasing the number of Ebola testing labs throughout the U.S. that can quickly and safely screen a potential Ebola specimen -Educating more than 150,000 health care workers on how to identify, isolate, diagnose, and care for patients under investigation for Ebola -Developing countermeasures — including the first Ebola vaccine to progress to Phase 2 testing — to prevent and treat Ebola -Converting at least 10 of the Ebola Treatment Centers into long-term Regional Ebola and Pandemic Treatment Centers for long-term readiness for years to come -Helping state and local public health systems accelerate and improve their operational readiness and preparedness for Ebola or other infectious diseases Source: https://whitehouse.gov/ebola-response
When the Reagan administration was faced with tens of thousands of gay men dying, they did nothing. They made jokes. They laughed. They caused an epidemic that killed 40 million people, because they hated gay men and thought we deserved to die.
There is so much more to it. There is a myth perpetuated by Reaganites that he was an historically significant President, in some positive sense. If you are old enough to have voted in 1980, you probably know differently. If you were born after 1980 you have been raised on this myth. He sold Americans a fable about a Hollywood movie-like exceptional past and destiny, and led ordinary people around with portrayals of that mirage while his reactionary robber-baron friends set about dismantling 50 years of progressive advancements for working men and women, on their way to returning themselves to the position of unfettered economic domination they held between the Civil War and the Great Depression. He was a union buster. He gave us Scalia – need I say more? He tried to give us Robert Bork (does anyone under 30 even know who he is?). He lied about Iran/Contra. He avoided dealing with AIDS. He sealed the political sham-show between right wing capitalist kings and the evangelical thought-control snake-oil salesmen. Americans don’t want to hear that they are ordinary citizens of the world, and they don’t want to hear that the aren’t anointed by some deity to lead the world to salvation. They lapped it up, and they continue to do so.
I have to wonder how the response of a more competent presidency to the AIDS crisis might have changed even the global impact of the disease. Where might we be today? How many millions of people would be alive and not suffering? Yes, Reagan was historically significant—for fucking things up in a globally devastating way.
When you hear how he slashed Income taxes, he did on the Wealthy, but he increased the lowest tax rate from 10% to 15%.
His campaign was funded by Christian radicals, whose entire goal was to dismantle Roe vs. Wade and see American women relegated once more to back alleys and dirty knives. He opened the door to religion in politics in a way the postwar McCarthyists never dreamed possible. Now, 36 years after his election, maybe a third of American medical schools offer proper access to even first-trimester abortion training (in an era where that should mean a pill or vaginal suppository), and there are currently fewer doctors trained to perform late stage abortions for the entire US than there were pre-RvW (when such operations were only performed as a heroic measure).
And no one has even touched on his legacy of racial hatred, deliberate destruction of black communities and establishing of COONTELPRO to destroy the lives of black panthers and black activists, his actual murder of black activists and more. He was actually a demon.
If you want to know how many lives could have been saved if the Reagan government had just fucking BUDGETED for AIDS research instead of telling AIDS researchers that they had to beg, borrow or steal any money for AIDS from other programs–then read And The Band Played On: Politics, People, and the AIDS Epidemic, 20th-Anniversary Edition by Randy Shilts. And be prepared to have your heart broken at the unadulterated and wildly irresponsible waste.of time and human lives.
Other shitty things Reagan did:
1) He almost tripled the National Debt. And you need to see the difference with zeroes:
When Reagan took office in 1980: $909,100,000 owed.(909.1 billion)
When Reagan left office in 1988: $2,601,300,000,000 owed. (2.6 trillion)
2) He raised taxes on the middle class and the poor ELEVEN TIMES while in office.
3) Unemployment soared after Reagan passed his tax cuts for the rich, and it took decades to get back down again.
4) He turned the U.S. into an illegal weapons dealer.
5) He funded terrorists, helping create the Taliban and Osama bin Laden. From NewsOne:
After Ronald Reagan was elected in 1981, U.S. funding of the mujahideen increased significantly and CIA Paramilitary Officers played a big role in training, arming and sometimes even leading mujahideen forces.
The CIA trained the mujahideen in many of the tactics Al Qaeda is known for today, such as car bombs, assassinations and other acts that would be considered terrorism today.
6) When his economic policies began wreaking havoc on the government, Reagan stole from Social Security–to the tune of 2.5 TRILLION–treating it for eight years as the private slush fund of himself and his rich friends.
7) [T]he Reagan administration demonized opponents of apartheid, most notably the African National Congress, as dangerous and pro-communist. Reagan even vetoed a bill to impose sanctions on South Africa, only to be overruled by Congress.
They called him the Teflon president for a reason. All this shit–and none of it stuck to him. He got away clean every single time.
Reagan is also almost entirely responsible for making colleges in California tuition-based. College used to be far more accessible to more people before Reagan saw to that. Most of what makes Reagan popular today (especially among conservatives) are actually the result of popular myths.
He also invented the myth of the welfare queen. Ronald Reagan is the reason your aunt’s friend Gail from Zumba definitely for real saw a woman with her hair and nails done getting her food stamps out of her Coach bag to buy steak and lobster at the grocery store.
And after all of this “modern” conservatives think Reagan was a “weak” Republican president. That he was “too soft.”
Think about that for a second after reading this very well compiled list of literal atrocities he committed.
