imagine if your boyfriend was like I can smell an ant. and started tracking

Project 2025 ain't gonna roll out all at once. So what we're gonna wanna do is make passing each individual part of it as difficult as possible, so there's less to undo once we finally get this country back on the rails.

Hey, the ACLU is getting people to send letters to your Reps to have Congress pass the No Kings Act.

This act would make constitutional amendments to ensure that even sitting presidents are held liable for their actions. That NOBODY is above the law.

Their goal is 150k messages sent and at the time of writing this they're about 2.1k off from that goal!

ACLU gives you a prefilled message that you can edit to send to make the process easier, and will send it out for you.

This only takes a few minutes!

After shoving Hansel in the oven, the witch turns to Gretel - who is currently fending the witch off with a gingerbread chair - and says:

“I can’t believe you thought a trail of breadcrumbs would save you. I mean, honestly, this is a forest! It’s full of animals. Honestly, the very idea that a dumb shit like you thought you could get the better of me is absurd.”

Gretel hits her in the face with said chair. To be fair to the witch, she takes the chairshot like a champ.

“Ow!”

“Did you know,” says Gretel, “that crows are capable of facial recognition?”

“Eh?” Says the witch, clambering to her feet and pulling a candy cane sledgehammer off the wall. “What’s that got to do with anything?”

“Not only that,” Gretel continues, “but they can remember both friends and enemies. And they’ll often follow people they remember as friends.”

The two fence with their sugared weapons for a moment, before the witch knocks the chair out of Gretel’s hands.

“Enough with the bird facts! Honestly, this whole attempted escape has been utter clownshoes. Get in the fucking oven!”

She seizes Gretel by the collar. Gretel immediately sandbags, letting her whole body go limp. This eminently practical defense forces the witch to try and deadlift her. Which is hard, as the witch often skips leg day.

“For example,” Gretel says, as the witch struggles and grunts, “if you feed crows a lot of breadcrumbs, they’ll probably start to see you as a friend and follow you in the hope of more food.”

The witch stops. Outside, she hears the thunder of wings.

“They’ll even bring you shiny things they find as presents!” Says Gretel, as a corner of the gingerbread ceiling is suddenly cut away by a large crow with a knife in its mouth.

“Oh shitballs.” Says the witch, as the crows descend. “I hope you know this is a great unkindness.”

“Technically,” Says Gretel, “It’s a murder.”

Ten years of Going to Hell.

Cometh the hour, cometh the return of the Tumblr girl. It's the talk of the town. It's so hot right now. Return of the Tumblr girl. So hot.

Everyone is talking about it because, and there's no doubt about it, 2014 Tumblr is back in a big way. Some folk ask if we remember her bedroom (it's never changed.) Others claim that there is more to her outfit than meets the eye. Y'all are real enigmas—yet the internet can't stop talking about you. So mysterious. So hot.

Well, it looks like Tumblr girls of all stripes are going to need their essentials: their string of fairy lights, their neon and/or pastel hair, their Doc Martens, their fishnet tights, and, of course, their copies of The Pretty Reckless' seminal second album Going to Hell. It has just turned ten this past week, and it seems celebrations are in order. The band has shared this little note, for starters, and say that they love you all. Which is just really, really nice.

Read this in the voices of the abridged version

Pip: Which one of you was gonna tell me that tea tastes different if you put it in hot water?

Alucard: Y-You were putting it in cold water?

Pip: ...

Seras: Pip. Answer the goddamn question, Pip!

Pip: Yeah?! I thought for like... 5 years that people just put it in hot water to speed up the tea-ification process! Didn't realize there was an actual reason.

Alucard: You don't have the patience to microwave the water for like 3 minutes?

Integra: Why are you- Why are you putting it into the microwave to boil it?!

Alucard: Do you think I have the patience to boil water on the stove?

Integra: It takes less then a minute...

TJ: Bestie... is your stovetop powered by the fucking sun?

Integra: How long does it take you to boil a cup of water on the stove?

TJ: Like seven minutes!

Integra: Just stick the mug on top of the stove on medium heat and it boils in like two minutes... less then that if you use a saucepan

TJ: What- You're putting a whole mug on the stove? On medium heat?! Your stove is enchanted!

Maxwell: Everyone discussing this matter right now is a fucking lunatic...

Anderson: Do NONE of you own a fucking kettle?!

Ok I had to look it up on YouTube to make sure but the skeleton pulling his head off is from the intro to the movie Scooby Doo meets the Boo Brothers.

It’s the sound of…

Yeah I've been a fan of rwby since I first watched the red trailer (I actually saw an amv before that.) And here's the thing, it's one thing to dislike a show and point out flaws with it. It's another thing to say that just because you don't like it nobody else is allowed to either, which is the attitude I've seen from most people that don't like rwby. So yeah if you're reading this and your "opinion" is that because you don't like rwby then nobody should and anyone that does is stupid, then feel free to stick your opinion up your ass

It matters who started it.

There's a problem with how many who express frustration with the RWDE or overblown RWBY hate in general are countered with "it's just their opinion, bro" from a textbook centrist.

Yeah, from the outside looking in, it does seem like we can't look the other way when some people just aren't jiving with our thing. Thing is that when we do look the other way, there's more just making RWBY their own personal punching bag.

Furthermore, just as anyone has the right to make their dislike for RWBY everyone else's problem, others have the right to say, "Hey, this feels really fucked up and here's why."

Yet we're the ones who gotta suck it up like a sponge whether we back up our arguments or not. Because apparently when we don't, we're fanatics who can't take criticism of our favorite show.

Like... sure. Way back when the RWDE was created because there were fans who liked RWBY but would overreact to negativity towards their faves. The tag naturally sprouted from there.

Except that things aren't like that now. Rarely anybody in the FNDM stirs crap up that hasn't been started by the RWDE or somebody overreacting to RWBY. And even when the FNDM does get out of line, the RWDE seems to overlook their own transgressions and hypocrisies.

Damn right

I'm sick of this doom and gloom shit.

We will get Volume 10 and more. One way or another RWBY will continue. Too many people believe in it for it to happen any other way.

We're only a little over 2 weeks away from the release of JL+RWBY Pt. 2 which is going to be amazing and I'll be shocked if we don't hear something about V10 not long after the blu-ray release.

Screw the "critics" and the haters.

I believe in CRWBY and I believe in RWBY now and always. Who's with me?
