John Boyega talks about how he feels about BB-8 - Full video

People who guested on Sesame Street or The Muppet Show often mentioned this phenomenon in interviews.

I’m reminded of a possibly apocryphal story where a talk show was doing a Kermit the Frog guest spot, and the sound technicians couldn’t figure out why the audio pickup was so terrible - until they realised that they’d unthinkingly attached the wireless mic to the puppet rather than the voice actor.

if you find bones in the forest, sit a bit and listen. they are old and have some good stories to tell. maybe they’ll teach you a spell or two, or explain where the water on our planet came from.

if you find bones by the ocean, run. don’t look back. run, faster, faster. the sea may love you but there are nights where she knows neither mercy nor science, and the bones warn you only once.

boi if you find bones call the police i hate this website so much

moami

this is a piece of creative writing, in case you couldn’t tell from the fact that real bones don’t usually go hey lil’ mama lemme whisper bony secrets in your ear or warn you of the incoming tides like a calcified weather frog.

So can we talk about the absolutely stunning duplicity going on here?

HOLY SHIT

fandomsandfeminism

That is some DELIBERATELY EVIL data representation. Where is the super villain that designed this fucking graph?

bogleech

“Okay murders spiked by like well over 1000% but if we turn the graph THIS way, it’s like they went DOWN! HOORAYYYY!!!”

tempest-caller

For anyone confused: the red represents the murder rate. Look at the numbers at the y axis. The graph is upside down because, normally, a graph starts at 0 and then goes up, but this one ends at 0.

As we put it in German: never trust statistics you haven’t manipulated yourself

antique-scarecrow

this is fucking disgusting

mckitterick

There, I fixed it.

oh-snap-pro-choice

Holy fuck this is utterly vile.

This is why I believe everyone should have a stats class in highschool. People can moan about math all the way want but things like this affect not only your life but society itself. Being able to read graphs properly, understand statistics… It frees you from so much.

u know that thing where an animals grow in a far off place and some idiot introduces him to a new habitat and it turns out its characteristics that help them in their own sometimes are too helpful in the new one and they become like an invasive species yeah thats the word i was missing anyway back to my point i think i saw a human version of that just now i was driving in tonights snow storm and i saw a man wearing a big ass cowboy hat to keep the snow off him and a bandit red bandana to keep it off his face and a big ass pancho to keep him warm and nice ass cowboy boots to keep his calves dry and he was prancing along while everyone on the road looked miserable and frozen solid and idk i guess the point im trying to make here is i feel like cowboys would have taken over russia if given the chance or something

zippiestrock

“Cowboys could be an invasive species” is an extremely hot take I wasn’t prepared for

Isn’t that just practicing avoidance? 🤔 if you’re a therapist it’s your job to help us learn how to not have to avoid anymore lmfao.

lierdumoa

When recovering alcoholics avoid alcohol, is that avoidance? When people with celiac disease avoid gluten, is that avoidance? You’re supposed to avoid things that are toxic to you. It’s healthy to avoid things that are toxic to you.

Therapists only discourage avoidance if you’re avoiding things that are good/necessary.

People who emotionally abuse you are not good or necessary. They’re toxic.

sacrificethemtothesquid

My therapist’s refrain is “avoiding avoidable suffering”. Husbandthing and I lie like rugs when we need to and our mental health is so much better for it.

jabberwockypie

You can’t change anybody but yourself. If your family is abusive and shitty or Uncle so-and-so is going to be awful and racist/homophobic/etc, all the therapy in the world for YOU isn’t going to do jack or shit about their behavior.

You can set boundaries and, with practice, you can enforce those boundaries, but it’s not going to magically make your family into the people you want them to be.

(And boundaries aren’t going to do anything if you don’t enforce them. If you say “I don’t want to be around when X happens” - where X equals “you drink” or “uncle so-and-so starts saying horrible things” - then you need to mean that and if X happens, you need to leave, and you need to be prepared for the fact that people are probably going to be mad at you for having boundaries. And it’s a lot less stressful to just not go.)

Honestly, if the holidays have, historically, been a shitshow with these people, are you going to enjoy yourself, or are you going to just set yourself up for additional stress and trauma?

Being alone for the holidays can be a bit lonely, it’s also a relief. You can do nice things for yourself, or make/get yourself a really nice meal, watch some good movies or read a good book, pet a cat (if applicable) … you can have peace.

lhylice

The people who are toxic and who hurt you are not going to change their behaviour, even if you set boundaries. Sometimes *especially* if you set boundaries.

You can choose to just not be around for their abuse. Let them scream at the wall or something.

You are not responsible for their shitty behaviour, and you certainly aren’t responsible for making them into a better person.

lynati

Therapists exist to help make you healthier, and sometimes that means learning to recognize when your family problems are NOT your fault; how to see what needs to change and what part you AND they are responsible for to make the relationship healthy; and how to tell that the toxic people in question AREN’T going to change and when it is time to start cutting ties with them and their toxicity for the sake of your own well-being.

Therapists do not exist to teach you how to accept the abuse heaped on you by your family. So, actually, in many cases they DO exist to help you learn to avoid those people.

Some things can’t be fixed. Some things are not your job to fix. Some things, some people, some situations, are just gangrene- and need to be treated as such.

This is actually A+ cat management. “Mirroring” is a big thing with cats. It’s why they will lay in similar positions several feet apart, or will come and try to do things when you do them. It’s a sign that they love you and want to show. This cat wants to be close to its owner, and also wants to do what its owner is doing, to be involved in some way. Giving them their own thing to use is a really great way to redirect them and allow them to mirror the behavior in a non-disruptive way that frustrates neither party. This is a GOOD IDEA.

school tips that aren’t bullshit

don’t try too hard in gym unless you actually enjoy it (chances are, your grades won’t be affected as long as you’re sort of trying or at least look like you are)(i do kind of have an unfair advantage in this department because i’m fat and people assume i can’t exercise but this seems to work for my friends of all shapes and sizes who i know who hate gym)

take electives!!! you might end up finding a secret passion + having a non-academic class is always a good way to break up the day

take classes you think are fun and actually enjoy! this seems obvious but, for example, if you hate calculus and you don’t have to take take it, don’t take it! take photography or environmental science or wood shop or algebra or literally anything other class, just make it something you enjoy.

don’t go overboard with AP and Honors classes (i suggest having at least one easy class [whether it’s an elective or just a subject you find easy] as a break)

only take honors or AP classes in subjects you find easy and/or interesting (taking advanced classes in subjects you don’t like or find difficult to begin with just makes it worse)

it’s okay not to take any honors or AP classes for literally any reason. too difficult? too stressful? too much work? just don’t want to? totally fine.

it’s okay to have to drop a class for any reason, too

if you have trouble focusing in a difficult class, sit in the front if you can (I find that being able to see all of the board, being able to hear clearly, and basically being prohibited from goofing off because I’m right in front of the teacher helps me focus on the lesson)

if you’re easily distracted by technology, don’t use it when you’re learning if you can help it. i know it’s not that easy to break habits, but it really does make a difference (my school offers personal computers and I found that, if i was taking notes online, i would get really tempted to do literally anything else on my laptop and isolating the tab with my notes didn’t help. i switched to taking notes on paper and it is much better)

use shorthand like your life depends on it. invent your own system or use the standard, it doesn’t matter. cuts down note-taking time in half, i swear

take notes on every academic text you read (unless you have an eidetic memory)!!! writing things down helps you remember the information better

eat well! try and eat three nutritious square meals a day because being hungry fucks over your brain! (and do remember nutritious means fulfilling and doesn’t denote specific foods)

don’t push yourself too hard! you’re a person, not a study machine, you have limitations.

if you have trouble studying, try experimenting with different ways of studying!

do not be afraid of getting extra help!

Don’t go to a certain school just because your friends and/or s/o is going there!!! Do what you want to do and go where you want to go! Your education is so important, don’t waste it for someone else.

Do not be afraid to use highlighters!!! You think it might be important??? Highlight it!!!

whatever you do, don’t join the military!
