It's A Certain Aesthetic

whenever someone is like ‘why do burger-flippers deserve to make the same amount as x?’ and i just ask ‘have you considered that maybe x deserves to be paid more?’ because it never occurs to people that if these people are being underpaid, then there is a chance that so are they.

[zooophagous]

I see this all the time with people bringing up paramedics. “You want 15$ an hour as a burger flipper! I made less than that as an EMT!”

Yeah and it was wrong to pay YOU that little too. You got overworked and underpaid and the amount of money the McDonalds employee in the drive through gets has no bearing what so ever on what an EMT makes. Pay the EMT more too.

Princess and the Frog 2 where Naveen gets himself into some nonsense and Tiana has to go rescue him and Lottie will NOT be allowing her best friend in the whole world to go on an adventure without her AGAIN, not this time no sir. And the whole movie is just about the power of friendship and the love and support that exists between women with brief intermissions peppered throughout showing Naveen having the time of his life being the most obnoxious prisoner he knows how to be with full certainty that his amazing wife is on her way to save him.

Actually this is a good plot, and I want to see this.

Today I learned that cuttlefish experience REM sleep, and that it makes their skin flash random colors. This is the cutest thing ever.

The electric eel at my aquarium has a voltmeter attached to his tank, and whenever he pumps out a burst of electricity–either when he’s navigating his tank or getting fed–the meter lights up and makes noise. Sometimes, I’ll walk past him when he’s snuggled up and totally motionless on his log, and see the voltmeter going crazy.

I am left to assume that he is dreaming, and is sleep-zapping at the things in his dreams.

[arachnospooky]

I am absolutely delighted to learn that electric eels dream of kicking ass.

He looks like he’s trying so hard to be a fearsome bird of prey and I’m so proud of him even if he wasn’t successful.

They have nine beverages between the two of them

[polychromehana]

i have that painting ai app on my phone so i went ahead and took the liberty…

[jessthecheesewitch]

What they have are five beverages and four waters. Water, by definition, cannot be a beverage.

[queen-rot]

The fuck do you mean water cant be a beverage?

[jessthecheesewitch]

[adamsmasher]

So was anyone gonna tell me that water isn’t a beverage or was I just stopped to find out in a Tumblr post about thirsty celebrities

tired interpretation: complaining about your wife being opinionated

wired interpretation: bragging about how smart your wife is

Wow, alright, I’m in a place in my head where I hadn’t even CONSIDERED that 1st one, the tired interpretation. I straight-up only thought it was a lovely mug about how awesome their wife is, and I’m just so happy about that :)

i’m a simple woman. if theres a story where the main leader dude is like “we gotta put together a team” and then it cuts between them finding the team members in various positions that indicate their jobs & personalities in neatly-put-together little vignettes before they all come together and just clash horrifically because they have to learn how to operate with each other, then i am all over that shit like white on rice that’s my favorite fuckin trope

[actuallyschizophrenic]

yall im just thinkin about like potential good schizophrenic representation. like… like yall. put us in things. but like…. put us in things correctly. trust me you can’t do it too wrong if you just ask a schizophrenic person some questions first and have them read ur shit after to make sure it’s not like horrid. a good amount of schizophrenic people have cognitive and executive function issues and can’t make the representation themselves. if you call urself an ally and call yourself an advocate for diversity, make shit diverse, include schizophrenic people sometimes. we’re more than happy to help you do it.

this is still relevent

Dude, I just realized, in Pokemon, they probably use Phantump sightings to local searches for missing people. But it’s like a double edge sword, because you know you’re looking for a body at that point.

Like imagine officer jenny having to report to the family “… I’m sorry… but there’s been a Phantump reported in the area.”

[fini-mun]

How many kids have died in the damn forest?!

[seventeendeer]

okay but

what if the search team caught the Phantump

and they have to report to the family that their child may never come back as themself, but … perhaps you should have a look at this Pokémon. you might recognize it, or maybe it will recognize you

and okay, it may be a little bit harder to communicate with their little one now, and the future they imagined for the kid may not be a possibility anymore, but they found their baby, it’s right here, it’s safe, not to mention capable of pulling some sick magic tricks so nothing will ever be able to hurt it again

how many Phantump do you think live with their human families still, either because a rescue team caught them and sent them home, or because they found their way back eventually

how many children have kid siblings who just so happen to be Phantump, or big siblings who act like kid siblings because Phantump don’t grow up the same way human kids do

is there a network for people whose children have turned into Phantump so they can trade back and forth and let their little ones grow up into big strong Trevenant and move out into forests of their own

how many family reunions involve a Trevenant lumbering out of a nearby forest like [EARSPLITTING INHUMAN SCREECH] “oh hey, Brenda’s here you guys, welcome home Brenda”

just 

think about this for a moment ok

consider it

[anonymoustypewriter]

Consider me going into a forest and capturing someone’s actual child’s ghost/soul in a ball and using it to fight some rats and lizards and shit

My nephew had some spending money from his grandpa so I took him shopping so he could buy something. (I was thinking a book, a toy, a puzzle, a teddy)

He thought long and hard about what he was spending his pennies on, and decided to buy a raspberry plant. He’s five and he’s spending his pocket money on raspberry bushes.
