i bet belle and hua mulan would love each other. the filial piety brothers 💪
belle: i respect my father so much
hua mulan: hey i respect MY father so much, and also yours
belle: i would lay down my life for him in an instant, so of course when his life was on the line i didn’t hesitate to set aside whatever identity and thoughts of the future i had had to defend him
hua mulan: that’s crazy i also did that
belle: i didn’t expect that i would end up with more grandeur and authority than i ever could have accessed otherwise, but of course i didn’t forget who i was doing this for or let the power tempt me
hua mulan: 100% with you sister
belle: also the giant bloodthirsty cat creature gives insane dick like you wouldn’t even believe
I love that John Turturro’s video for Variety’s “Does [Actor] Know Their Lines?” is just a thin premise for him to go off on all his male actor crushes, and I love that for him
CRT-TV Drums. The sound is produced by catching static electricity from a CRT with the hands and sending electrical signals through the body to a guitar amplifier📺
Today, Jeff Bezos, the second richest person in America, who bought the Washington Post in 2013, announced that the paper’s opinion section would henceforth focus on defending “personal liberties and free markets.”
Reminder: When billionaires take control of our communication channels, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for their billionaire babble.
remember how utterly inescapable how i met your mother used to be with the memes and references and barney and bro code and wait for it… and then the finale was so hated it vanished overnight
The finale so successfully erased the show from public consciousness, that when people tried to come up with a name for the “extremely popular show with finale so bad that people just immediately stop talking about it” phenomenon, people called it… the Game of Thrones Effect. HIMYM got memoryholed so hard that people forgot it even existed
Love me some schadenfreude as much as the next guy, but we actually WANT these people to finally blink and go “oh shit wait, maybe I should move LEFT”.
Bc the more we have on our side (esp ppl who can say they left MAGA and finally understand how culty it was, how bigotry is wrong, etc), the more resources we have with which to apply pressure and intimidation to these fucking fascists.
This is really a bad sign! It means Trump is trying to control the narrative and what history is documented!
Folks might not remember, but the president is not allowed to throw away or delete correspondence while he’s in office; it’s all part of the official record.
Naturally he tried to do it anyway, and these poor bastards were having to go through his office trash and constantly backing up copies of his tweets to try and do their jobs.
Doing so meant that we had and have proof that he contradicted himself whenever he failed to keep his lies consistent.
Seems like he remembers that. 🙃
This means it’s up to us keep track of the bullshit he’s pulling. Receipts, articles, papers, general documents… He’s going to throw it all out on a federal level. He’s also working to get control over all news outlets, and what gets posted onto the internet and general social media. He’s already got Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok locked down.
If you are in a country that is NOT the United States, encourage your government to hold Trump, Elon, and their cronies accountable for the things they’ve done that have had an effect OUTSIDE the United States. Because it’s going to take some major global pressure to aid in keeping Trump from fucking over everyone else completely.
so i’m currently working at a law firm and the other day one of the attorneys was talking to me and he mentioned that he’s “not very confrontational” and i was like you are?? a lawyer???
and he said “yeah but in court there are rules. i can argue with some shmuck in a suit in front of a judge no problem, but when i leave the courthouse and go home i’m not gonna argue with my wife about dinner. there are no rules in our kitchen. i would die.”
