40,000 years ago, early humans painted hands on the wall of a cave. This morning, my baby cousin began finger painting. All of recorded history happened between these two paintings of human hands. The Nazca Lines and the Mona Lisa. The first TransAtlantic flight and the first voyage to the Moon. Humanity invented the wheel, the telescope, and the nuclear bomb. We eradicated wild poliovirus types 2 and 3. We discovered radio waves, dinosaurs, and the laws of thermodynamics. Freedom Riders crossed the South. Hippies burned their draft cards. Countless genocides, scientific advancements, migrations, and rebellions. More than a hundred billion humans lived and died between these two paintings—one on a sheet of paper, and one on the inside of a cave. At the dawn of time, ancient humans stretched out their hands. And this morning, a child reached back.

Spotted: The next round of arrivals at the deb ball! Our beloved Mayor Archibald looking handsome, as always. Everyone's favorite PI, Vanessa looking like her usual bad ass self. Esmerelda showing off her timeless beauty. Dean looking very handsome and like he's only there to support Ella. Chandler looking like he'd rather be anywhere but here, and I don't blame him. Keep the looks coming! XOXO, Gossip Girl

i love you singers whose vocals sound desperate i love you musicians who sound like if you don’t get this song out you’re going to explode i love you songs that sound like they’re dragging the vocalist with them 80 miles per hour down the highway tied to the back of a truck i love you voice cracks in emotional songs i love you unique voices i love you music that disturbs the comfortable and comforts the disturbed

blah blah blah aging tumblr population etc etc if you are ever visiting a family that just had a baby, and you know that they have other small children, bring a little something for each of the other kids. it doesn’t have to be anything fancy but, even the most charitable, well-behaved child starts feeling left out and lonely after the nth visitor brings gifts and attention for their parents and new sibling and, either isn’t there for them at all or the only engage with them about their baby sibling, especially since their parents have probably been completely consumed with the new baby. make their day and they will remember that bit of kindness and attention from you forever.

what if you were my idol turned best friend who everyone in the league knew i was completely gone for. and what if i drafted you first on the team i was captaining for the all star game after begging the captains going before me not to pick you. and what if absolutely nobody was surprised. what if the emcee and tate mcrae already knew who i Wanted Before Going To Bed last night and i was so crazypossessive even sports writers knew i’d pulverise anyone who took you from me. and what if i told reporters after that this was my longtime dream come true. and what if you said all you wanted to do now was to make your captain happy, and told the boys that you Listen to your captain. and what if… after all that... you put my hoodie on and did a live interview in front of god and gary bettman.

I forgot how hilarious The Juror #6 job is. The episode opens with Nate trying to socialize his crime daughter by having her do civil service. "There is not some evil conspiracy lurking behind the curtain of every routine civic activity." *four minutes later* "Uh, apparently there is an evil conspiracy lurking behind the curtain of every routine civic activity." Brent Spiner plays a hippie spiritualist pharmacist. We have to get Parker from thinking hiding knives in food is a good prank to having her charm an entire room of people. The kids leave for the day and Nate and Sophie line up at the door; they hand Hardison his briefcase, Parker her sacked lunch, and they present Eliot with the exciting news that today is the day he is going to be hit with a car.

Spotted: Serena van der Woodsen leaving her gynecologist's office just hours ago. She tried her best to stay incognito during her appointment but my reliable sources have identified her and confirmed her visit anyway. Maybe she needs a lesson or two from someone who actually knows how to not be spotted and have your deepest secret(s) revealed. Not one of you lot though because you all don't know better either. Now let's get to the good and juicy parts of this blast, shall we? Visiting a gynecologist in a women's world is nothing spectacular, I know, but it does become interesting when you find out you're carrying our beloved Mayor's child under your heart! Yes, you heard that right. Serena van der Woodsen is pregnant. However, it's not the first time our favorite It-Girl was pregnant. Lonely Boy aka Dan Humphrey was about to be a dad once too. Bet you didn't know that, did you, Humphrey? Two years into your marriage, your lovely now ex-wife then wife made sure to get rid of the baby before you'd ever find out she was pregnant. Maybe she did it because she knew your marriage was doomed, maybe she didn't believe you would ever be a good father, who knows, but what I do know is she didn't want children with you. This time Serena my sources have told me wants to keep the baby so the child was never the problem. Serena, thank you for the perfect opportunity to reveal two secrets in one day. Now the only question I have left is who you're going to talk to first? Dan or Nate? Feels nostalgic to make that decision, doesn't it? XOXO, Gossip Girl @xoxoserenavanderwoodsen @nathanielxarchibald @danhumphreyx

i feel like we should talk about the classism also portrayed in Nimona
like the whole thing of ballister not being of noble blood, him being a street kid?
ofc there’s the homophobia/transphobia aspect but i haven’t really seen anyone talk about the classism in it
the director literally claims that the start of the “crack in the wall” is the queen giving ballister a chance to prove himself and become a knight
she is fully blaming the prospect of giving non-noble lower class people a chance to become knights as a catalyst for the opportunity for “monsters” to invade or whatever
the queen letting ballister train to be a knight, and her wanting to allow anyone (aka ‘commoners’) to do the same? giving underprivileged people the same opportunities as those that are privileged? and the director finding that so “wrong” or offensive that she literally kills her??
