sight I saw in san francisco, twice: gaggle of tiny children leashed together being herded along, everyone in hi-vis

from what we can tell "full movie online free" seems to be some kind of 21st century prayer

this is it. this is the funniest scooby doo clip

god, the voice actor cooked with this one

I should hope so, Frank Welker has been playing Fred since before my mom was born. Meanwhile every other character has been replaced multiple times, sometimes by Frank Welker

I imagine if he wasn't good at it someone would have told him to stop by now

Extremely irksome as an autistic person to ask a clarifying question and be told you’re “splitting hairs” when you genuinely just don’t understand because there isn’t enough information. Like, buddy. This is me at my most basic level of “what do you mean by that.” You wanna see me split hairs? If you really saw how thin I could slice a hair you’d hurl

I will split a hair into smaller halves every hour my demands of mutual participation in communication are not met

obsessed with this

Crying bc the events of Pacific's Rim are literally happening right now. January 8 was the day Mako and Raleigh fought those kaijus in the Hong Kong double event. January 12 is the triple event where they close the breach. In two days we cancel the apocalypse.

Today

you're just mad because you're hungry and tired and your legs hurt and you head hurts and you're too hot and you have depression

I'll definitely be checking this out!

Got it for My Son and he took to it without being told to which is high praise for him; Favorites so far are Clifford: Puppy Tales and Maya & Miguel

It's out! You should be able to find it on all available platforms, as well as their classic YouTube channel!

sam reich and matt mercer were holding brennan at gun point when he delivered this statement

I understand why "make bad art" can be an effective rallying cry for some, but for me personally it has never worked; my entire perfectionist being locks up at the idea of making something bad. For me, it just feels like if something is really and truly bad then what was the point of doing it at all? Personally, I don't find it motivational or encouraging.

The two things I have found that actually do help me are a combination of "I'll fix it in post" (the first version doesn't have to be good, it can be polished up later) and "not everything I make has to be my best work."

don't get me wrong I'm still very bad at accepting either of these things, but I've personally found them more practicable than trying to tell myself it's okay to "make bad art."

lesser actors work their way up to softcore gay porn gingerly, like they’re trying to feed a wild animal without startling it, but francois arnaud gamed the system by sisterfucking at entry level so that by the time he steps down to gay erotica everyone is like oh thank god. they’re not even related to each other.

when i was younger and stupid and in the (glass) closet i was dating the son of a pharmacologist. this man had made millions developing medications. he was fond of me and privately told me i was too funny and smart to be dating boys.

he also said that it was incredibly unlikely that sexism will ever be resolved in the medical field. that the majority of medications i will ever take - even some of which are "for women" - will not be clinically tested on my body.

the problem, he said, was in getting any human clinical trial approved. to test on a body with a uterus - any body, even elderly patients or those who have been sterilized - was often nigh-impossible, because the concern was that the test patient may, at any point, become pregnant. once/if the patient became pregnant, the study would not be about "the effects of New Medication on the body." instead, the trial would fail - the results would be "the effects of New Medication on a developing fetus/pregnant patient."

it was massively easier, he said, to just test without accounting for a uterus. that's how he phrased it - accounting for a uterus.

at the time, i remember him talking about the ethical implications of testing on a developing fetus; how such testing could theoretically bankrupt a company if a lawsuit was filed. he talked about informed consent and about how long it took for any legislation to be passed about this - that in 1993; the year i was born, it finally became illegal to outright exclude women and minorities from clinical trials.

i remember him shrugging. "that's not to say it doesn't happen," he said. my ears were ringing.

i was thinking about how every time i have been rushed to the ER, the first thing they have asked me is if i am pregnant. when i broke my wrist at 16 years old - despite never having had sex - they made me wait three hours for the test to come back negative before they gave me pain meds. the possibility of a child haunts my health.

how many people have died on the table because they were waiting for the pregnancy test before treatment. how many people have died on the table because they were pregnant, and the only thing we care about is the fetus.

it is hard to explain to other people, but it feels like some kind of strange ghost. our entire lives, we are supposed to "save" our bodies for our future partners. but really we are just saving the body for the future child, aren't we? that hovering future-almost that cartwheels around in a miasma. you can't get your tubes tied, what if you change your mind? think of the child you must have, eventually.

who cares about you and your actual safety. think about what you could be carrying.

one of the most comforting constants on this website is when a long-running show comes to an end and all the people who gaslit themselves to the point of psychosis over a ship that would never be canon go apeshit

We have lost the meaning of queerbait

Just because what you wanted didn't happen, doesn't mean it's queerbaiting. It is now being used an excuse when the ship you want didn't get together. Queerbaiting has to do with marketing.

Queerbait: A cookbook that you learned about from ads with pictures of people eating tasty looking soups and the author's social media posts about how soup lovers are going to love it, proves to have no soup recipes.

Not queerbait: A cookbook has no soup recipes. You assumed there would be some based on vibes and wishful thinking. No soups were ever advertised or promised.

Also not queerbait: A cookbook that was advertised as containing soup recipes has soup recipes but not for the types of soups you like.

When I say that Rachel Reid's books are written like fanfic, I want it to be understood that I don't mean this in any derogatory sense. Some of the greatest novelists of our age are fanfic writers.

What I mean is that the writing style contains recognizable linguistic markers that are characteristic of fanfiction, and particularly of AO3 fanfiction.

Like, here's one example:

If you visit AO3 looking for an erotic scenario in which a character experiences a prostate orgasm without any physical stimulation to his groin, you will find it under the tag: #coming untouched

If you visit pornhub looking for this same erotic scenario, you will instead find it under the tag: #handsfree

Rachel Reid specifically uses the term "untouched" when she describes Shane having this kind of orgasm in her book. That's the term she's more familiar with. Jacob Tierney, in contrast, uses the term he's more familiar with, when he has Ilya say to Shane, "Remember when I made you cum hands-free? Such a good trick."

Both writers are well-educated on the subject matter, but it's clear they graduated from different schools.

Some of you have never looked up prostate orgasms on pornhub and it shows.

So I follow N. D. Stevenson (comics writer and animator, most famous for Nimona and She-Ra and the Princesses of Power) and his husband Lee Ostertag (also a comics writer and animator) on Instagram. When I started following them, they were both publicly presenting as women, and then a few years ago N. D. came out as transmasc nonbinary, and then earlier this year Lee also came out as transmasc. Anyway this is all setup to say that Lee had the chance to make the funniest post of all time and he took it:

Absolutely iconic.
