#it's absolutely insane

[revenantghost]

It really is one of the most gut-wrenching feelings to realize you'd do anything, anything, anything for just a little bit longer with someone. But it's too late. The moment's passed, and if you're lucky you get to say goodbye.

The way tiktok has absolutely ruined crediting culture in videos/edits by normalising not crediting artists when you use their work in videos or edits.... The way tiktok has made editing a speed competition where you pump out the most basic edits possible as fast as possible without bothering to find the artist of that art you found on google images.... The way I've had to ask fellow ARTIST friends to please credit the artists whose works they used in their edits..... It's ridiculous. If you use someone's art in your edits, collages, videos, compilations, WHATEVER, you credit them. Doesn't matter how quick their art flashed or if you only used one image, you credit the artist. But most importantly you ask PERMISSION to use their art FIRST. and if you don't have permission, you do not use their art, even if you credit them.

#Art #I'm not on tiktok but I still see the edits either from friends sharing them or seeing them posted on insta by the editor #It's absolutely insane #IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE ARTIST DO NOT USE THEIR ART. IF YOU DON'T HAVE PERMISSION YOU DO NOT USE THEIR ARTB #*HOW* is this not common knowledge of basic fucking decency #Like one of my editor friends on insta posted an edit using entirely fanart from one artist and *I* had to tell them who it was #Lucky for them the artist was okay with reposts but still like how could you NOT think to at least ask

Has anyone else read "What We Found in the Sofa and How It Saved the World" by Henry Clark?

It's kind of like MBS in that a group of kids who are basically alone have to avert world domination from an organization that uses cell phones (among other tactics) to affect people's minds and is capable of erasing memories (Although there's no recovering from it) and the big bad guy has a crack team of violent henchmen with silly names and a familial connection to the eccentric man who recruits the kids

But other than that it's nothing like MBS and is absolutely off the walls bonkers insane

And I love it

#It's one of the weirdest books I've ever read #But it's just so silly and funny #You can read it in an afternoon or so because it's intended for like 8-12 year olds #But I got it years ago and I still reread it from time to time #Oh also there's a talking computer and most of the characters who aren't the kids come from another universe #It's absolutely insane #But I've never met another person who's read it

[screamingfrenchfries]

pleas just the fact that they NAMED THE TRACK "you're the heart" (relating to what WILL said to mike) instead of something related to mileven or saying "i love you" just-

AAAAAAAAAAAA

One of the weirdest flavors of rude customer interactions you can have is when there's the customer who's just an absolute ass from the moment they walk in, snapping at every turn, getting huffy and rolling their eyes all dramatically when you ask them to repeat something, or ask a very normal question that you need an answer to before you can help them any further ("And what's the address you'd like to have this delivered to?" for example). And there's also the person they walked in with, usually a spouse or otherwise significant other, and you're a little wary of them, too, at first, 'cause you're not sure if they're both grouches or not, because the first one is doing most of the talking. But then you see them react to their partner's bitchiness, and for a moment, you wonder if you should feel sorry for them, having to live with this person. But then eventually, the first person sighs a little, and apologizes to their partner, and explains that they're just hungry, or stressed, or tired, or whatever, and the partner says something soft and reassuring in return—and no one says jack shit to you, the person the majority and the worst of the bitchy attitude has been unleashed on. They'll apologize to their partner right in front of you for treating them not half as bad as they've been treating you, but there's no apology directed at you, not even a sidelong glance your way as they're apologizing to their partner, not even their partner apologizing on their behalf—not even a slight improvement in the way they treat you afterward. They're both clearly capable of recognizing this behavior as inappropriate, they just don't give a damn how it may make you feel, because servers and cashiers and all manner of other customer service workers just aren't people, apparently.

#it's absolutely insane #not that I even expect an apology from any customer ever #on the rare occasion that a customer does apologize to me for being a jerk I don't know what to do with it #and it's not that it even hurts my feelings either #because 99.9% of the time customers are jerks to me it just rolls off #it's just the absolute GALL of people thinking it's in any way okay to treat other people like that #what if it DID hurt my feelings???? #there are plenty of more sensitive workers out there who would be absolutely overwhelmed by something like that #and so what if it doesn't affect me like that? #just because I have a thick skin doesn't mean it's okay to be rude to me #it is 20-fucking-24 and people still need to be told that customer service workers are human beings deserving of respect #and it's honestly infuriating #learn how to act or go be a hermit

I just right now realized you can pretty much sum up what me and my husband are like on the inside based on which one of Brendan Fraser's films is our fave

Him: George of the Jungle

Me: Monkeybone

And if you don't know Monkeybone maybe... Leave it alone. I've watched it too many times during my formative years and it did something to my brain.

(yes we both love the Mummy too come on)

#i haven't seen Monkeybone in like 10 years #i made Benj watch it and he had to stop in the middle #this film gave my little brother an anxiety attack (he was too young to watch it honestly) #it's made and written by none other than Henry Selick #there's a Stephen King cameo in it !!!! #it's absolutely insane #ah yeah Whoopy Goldberg too. she's there #anyway don't watch it of you don't want to experience a very specific kind of anguish and grind your teeth while laughing

Imagine being told that the demand for your tour would require you to play a stadium show every day for 2.5 years - does that make you feel proud or profoundly anxious!!?

does throwing a stone at a tank

make a child a terrorist?

is terrorism about resisting oppression? is terrorism about demanding your birthright to live safely and peacefully in your homeland? is terrorism about hating the killers of your family, your friends and your people?

accusations of terrorism are often weaponized against those fighting for liberation and sovereignty and dignity. the french settlers called the algerians terrorists. the indian government calls the kashmiris terrorists. the pakistani army calls pashtun activists terrorists. the turkish government calls the kurds terrorists. apartheid south africa called nelson mandela a terrorist. americans called the vietcong and the black panthers terrorists. the israelis call the palestinians terrorists. all oppressive regimes are connected. all oppressed people are connected. injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

#fares odeh #this is the justification that israel uses to imprison and kill palestinian children #accusations of terrorism are often weaponized against poc who fight for liberation #'wider impact: after odeh's picture became famous israeli tanks were told to start shooting at stone throwers' absolutely insane #free palestine #palestine #gaza #from the river to the sea palestine will be free #glory to the martyrs #long live palestine #death to israel #long live the resistance #save the children #palestinian resistance

the mcu movies really did revolutionize the way women are portrayed in superhero franchises

my favorite part was when they made a woman killing cliff to kill the women like yep this is just the cliff where we kill our female characters now ... got a lady to kill??? take her to the cliff

[foundfamilywhump]

the question, you see, is not ‘is it too ooc for this character to cry’ but rather ‘what circumstances would push this character to cry’

this is the whump wisdom, go forth and make that character cry

#gav gab #‘it’s sooooooo ooc to make that character cry’ no you see I think it is ooc #to put this character through absolute unimaginable hell physically and emotionally #and NOT let them cry about it #sometimes canon framing and media format and genre #limit the ability to let a character emotionally Feel all the insanely traumatic shit that’s happened to them #that doesn’t mean that in a different medium or genre exploring these things #it would be ooc for them to do so #send tweet. let those characters feel and emote. it’s not ooc or cringe and anyone who tells you it is is a reductive dick

PSA: i keep seeing posts about staying cool in extreme heat that include advice like "gatorade is bad actually!" and "don't drink fruit juice it'll just dehydrate you!" and neither of these are true!

regarding fruit juice: there's apparently a misconception that Any Sugar At All will dehydrate you, and that's simply not true. yes, sugar will make you pee more when consumed in large amounts, but 1) the natural sugar in fruits won't do this to you 2) great news! a lot of fruit juices exist without any added sugar in them! 3) honestly even having a glass of the fruit juice with added sugar won't completely dehydrate you as long as you're also drinking water throughout the day. if its hot you deserve a cold treat of a drink!!! can't go wrong with fruit juice!!!

regarding gatorade: maybe this isn't an every day drink, but guess what: if it's 110F/40C or hotter outside, and you don't have AC, or you're moving around a lot outside of the AC, and you're sweating buckets: that's when you drink a gatorade.

gatorade exists to replenish all the electrolytes (salt) and glucose (sugar) that you sweat out. YES it is meant for athletes to drink during intensive work outs and not necessarily for people who aren't doing that kind of exercise. BUT GUESS WHAT! when you're sweating buckets because you had to walk to the bus in extreme heat, that's intensive exercise. please feel free to drink a gatorade after that! that's its intended use case!!!!

no: neither of these drinks should be a total replacement for water. but drinking a lot of water and then treating yourself to a fruit juice with lunch is a good idea!!! drinking a gatorade becuase you just had to walk for 20 minutes in the heat is a good idea!!!

Please Stop Spreading Misinformation About Drinks!!! It's fine if you drink things that aren't water!!!! Yes you should probably always be drinking water but drinking something else As Well isn't going to hurt you!!!! okay!!!! its fine!!!!!!

honestly so long as you are consistently getting Any (non-alcoholic) fluids in you, you're doing great!!!!!! okay!!!! i love you stay safe <3

#also: drinking A Soda or A Coffee isn't going to completely dehydrate you if you're drinking other fluids tbqh!!! #its fine!!!!! its fine!!!!! #drinks #heat #dehydration #this post exists because i'm mad at misinfo but also #this is for my homies who hate the taste of water and struggle to stay hydrated #because people have told them over and over again You Must Absolute Drink Water And Nothing Else and so they just don't drink anything #listen!! hey!!! whoever told you that was lying!!!! #drinking Any Fluids At All (yes even with caffeine!!) is better than Not Drinking Anything #please hydrate!!!! it's okay if that hydration isn't water!!!! #honestly i tried to be extremely non confrontational in this post but im pretty sure i've seen people suggest flavored water packets #but say no fruit juice ever. and that's insane. #it's all fluids baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #so long as you are drinking fluids you are combatting dehydration #YES water is the best option HOWEVER. if you drink things that aren't water that's also okay! i promise!!!!!!!!

noticed a dip in posts about palestine on my dash, so i think it deserves to be said again: palestine is not a trend. caring about genocide is not a trend. there are still reports about humanitarian aid trucks intentionally blocked off from gaza, meaning so many fucking gazans, a big portion of them children, are just bleeding out with no help. it just came out recently that israelis disguised as women and medics infiltrated a west bank hospital, at which point they killed 3 palestinians (whom they claim were militants. right). these people are living day to day without even the most basic utilities. anyone who claims to have “activism fatigue” needs to question why they’re so severely lacking in the most basic forms of compassion. you don’t get to just grow bored of talking about palestine. please never stop calling attention to the genocide happening full force in front of us.

#it’s kind of crazy that the most active blogs i see talking about it rn are literal palestinians who had to go through such insane trauma #they shouldn’t be the only ones who continue being vocal about it #bisan absolutely did not announce the global strike to signal to ppl that they can just stop saying anything afterwards?? #i knew this would happen but i just didn’t expect it to happen so fast #please keep talking. #palestine #israel #gaza
