LISTEN UP

dontbugmeimantisocial:

I’m American. I live right in the southwest and let me tell you, it’s hell over here right now, but it will become a lot worse if Article 13 is passed. 

You’ve probably heard about Article 13, and if you haven’t, go watch this video right now. Whatever you’re doing can wait for sixteen minutes and two seconds, because a second-long vote could destroy everything online.

Whether you’re from Europe or not, this law could affect you, so you should care Article 13 because it is going to destroy the online lives that you have built. No more posting memes, no more remixes, and no more YouTubers from anywhere.

How to Basic. 

All of your favorite content creators are at risk of losing their jobs because people want stricter laws on copyright, which will support the larger media companies but kill smaller creators. And because of this, we may lose everything online. 

So spread the word! Reblog this, reblog other people’s posts, find petitions, write your own posts! If you’re in Europe, contact your MEP’s and get them to understand how it will affect the people who use the internet. 

Please. 

#savetheinternet.

The customer is never right

normalize the customer never being right

Nah. I had to spend ten minutes convincing a Starbucks barista that their Eggnog Chai doesn’t have coffee in it. It’s a tea, for goodness sakes.

She never believed me, but she did make me a “special” one with milk instead of espresso. *facepalm*

You mean the eggnog chai LATTE you fucking idiot? Die

The customer is always wrong and I can’t believe some poor barista had to deal with this foolishness on Black Friday none the less

breaking bad, fight club, rick and morty, clockwork orange, and the catcher in the rye are all arguably good things – but if a man says they are his FAVORITE book/movie/tv show? RUN.

Can someone explain this to me?

They’re all works that are examinations of compelling but deeply flawed (usually narcissistic and violent) men. People rightly like all these works because they are good, but the implication of the original post is that if a guy says they are his favorite work, he is probably misunderstanding the point of the work and instead idolizing the male protagonist and is unable to recognize their flaws.

Basically, ask why they like it. If they like it because they think it’s well-written and made, you’re probably good. But if they want to be like Walter White, or Tyler Durden, or Rick Sanchez, or Alex DeLarge, or Holden Caulfield: yeah, RUN.

Finally I can reblog this post.

One thing I just learned is that a LOT of deep sea creatures aren’t coloured black, but red: Red blends in so well in dark water that it APPEARS dark or invisible. In short, Ariel looks bald to other mermaids.

She wouldn’t look bald, but you know that scene where she is singing through the hole in the coral and reaching up?

In deep enough water she would have just been eyes and teeth and then a long skinny hand stretching out.

Also the reason that red is such a hot ticket item is that relatively few deep sea predators produce red light, and without that wavelength red colored prey is near invisible. There are a lot of red colored prey animals, and there’s some great video out there on how bioluminescence and photophores factor into hunting/hiding/finding mates in the deep sea of you’re interested in learning more.

It’s kind of similar to why you should wear dark blue or green when you’re hiding in the woods at night instead of Black. Black would make your outline and body shape more visible than if you’re hiding wearing dark blue or green, and with an irregular pattern you’re even more invisible bc itll break up your silhouette.

In deep enough water she would have just been eyes and teeth and then a long skinny hand stretching out.

I gotta admit…this is the first post where I thought to myself “god I hope there’s not a drawing at the bottom”.
