Hundreds of thousands of people came out today in London to March for a Free Palestine. Hundreds of thousands of people disagreeing with the current government stance on the war. Don’t let the media fool you, people in the UK stand with Palestine.

(Oct. 28)

@laheyspells: i work at starbucks for a similar reason (their benefits) and they’re doing a bogo deal for ANY drink and more coupons are showing up on the app that i’ve never seen before. they’re desperate pls keep doing what you’re doing

@Rav3n_Sk0ll: I work at McDonalds (not by choice, personal struggles and family struggles with money, unable to quit) And I’ll tell you less and less people have been coming in, less and less sales, it’s noticeable, so don’t think it’s not working or happening I’ve seen it. KEEP DOING IT.

A nation whose existence requires the mass murder of children every few years is not a nation that should continue to exist. How many dead children is too many dead children? Where do we draw the line?

saw someone misspell "stochastic terror" as "socratic terror" so I'd like to clarify that stochastic terror is the public demonization of a person or group resulting in the incitement of a violent act that seems random but is not, while "socratic terror" is what every athenian felt when they went down to the agora in the 5th century and saw an old man with a beard approaching them

I know people on tumblr looove stories of underwater cave diving, but I haven't seen anyone talk about nitrogen narcosis aka "raptures of the deep"

basically when you want to get your advanced scuba certification (allowing you to go more than 60 feet deep) you have to undergo a very specific test: your instructor takes you down past the 60+ foot threshold, and she brings a little underwater white board with her.

she writes a very basic math problem on that board. 6 + 15. she shows it to you, and you have to solve it.

if you can solve it, you're good. that is the hardest part of the test.

because here's what happens: there is a subset of people, and we have no real idea why this happens only to them, who lose their minds at depth. they're not dying, they're not running out of oxygen, they just completely lose their sense of identity when deep in the sea.

a woman on a dive my instructor led once vanished during the course of the excursion. they were diving near this dropoff point, beyond which the depth exceeded 60 feet and he'd told them not to go down that way. the instructor made his way over to look for her and found a guy sitting at the edge of the dropoff (an underwater cliff situation) just staring down into the dark. the guy is okay, but he's at the threshold, spacing out, and mentally difficult to reach. they try to communicate, and finally the guy just points down into the dark, knowing he can't go down there, but he saw the woman go.

instructor is deep water certified and he goes down. he shines his light into the dark, down onto the seafloor which is at 90 feet below the surface. he sees the woman, her arms locked to her sides, moving like a fish, swimming furiously in circles in the pitch black.

she is hard to catch but he stops her and checks her remaining oxygen: she is almost out, on account of swimming a marathon for absolutely no reason. he is able to drag her back up, get her to a stable depth to decompress, and bring her to the surface safely.

when their masks are off and he finally asks her what happened, and why was she swimming like that, she says she fully, 100% believed she was a mermaid, had always been a mermaid, and something was hunting her in the dark 👍

As some in the comments have said, it seems a little strange that she's designed like a stereotypical SJW or something; Also, apparently, there's a kind of transphobic plot point in the movie? I have not watched the movie (nor do I plan on doing so) so the person who said it does might be bullshitting

PS: @soupkiddo I will not let you live this down /lh

Edit: Apparently the Transphobic part was in the show itself, not the movie.

Apparently this is the mad scientist villain of the newest paw patrol movie so thoughts and prayers that she succeeds where others have failed in finally euthanizing all the dog cops (I don't completely know what paw patrol actually is exactly)

"Being bi means all the attraction you feel is gay" NOT ME. All my attraction is not only hetero, it's hetero in the most off-putting way possible. I like men in the fetishistic yaoi fangirl way and I like women in the creepy mouth-breathing guy in your workplace way

Kirby lore level 1: Kirby is a cute pink guy and he eats the cake and King Dedede is a mean guy :)

Kirby lore level 2: Kirby is infinite strong and he kills gods on a random tuesday. LOL

Kirby lore level 3: The Kirby series has built patterns throughout its decades of histories to create intruiging connections between otherwise innocuous events and characters aw SHIT a BUTTERFLY

Kirby lore level 4:

First #free palestine was suppressed, and then when we moves to #israel, they suppressed that tag too; Keep a careful watch on the #imperialism tag, and remember that no matter how much they try to suppress us, we can't stop the fight to inform others in the matters at hand; Every time they shoot down a tag, let's make 2 more trend.

We're so back
