One of my favorite Super Bowl ads of all time is from 2006 from Pizza Hut, trying to advertise their new Cheesy Bites.

The ad is pretty simple. Some guy orders the Pizza Hut Cheesy Bites, and then Jessica Simpson enters and sings a parody of “These Boots Are Made For Walking” in a super sexy way that appeals to the average Super Bowl viewer.

Now, you might be saying “how is that one of your favorites? What are you, some horny bastard who thinks about sex once every two minutes or he’ll die?” Yes, but that’s not relevant rn. You see, they played this ad multiple times. If I were to guess, at least 5 times. But they made a slight change to the last one

Here’s a video playing the first time the ad plays and the last time the ad plays

So a lot of political scandals just dropped in the last 24 hours

-NC Governor Candidate Mark Robinson's online posts were found, including some VERY graphic descriptions (like seriously, do not read if you're not 18) of him cheating on his wife, calling himself a black Nazi, and expressing support for reinstituting slavery. His email address was also found on Ashley Madison

-Robert F Kennedy Jr was revealed to be cheating on his wife with a reporter (and that isn't even the weirdest thing since federal law enforcement opened an investigation into him allegedly cutting off the head of a whale and taking it home with him less than 24 hours ago)

-GOP Senate candidate who is the CEO of a bank has been found accepting millions of dollars from what seem to allegedly be Mexican drug cartels.

-Finally, probably the biggest bombshell, according to multiple eyewitness testimonies within sealed sworn affadavits, Congressman Matt Gaetz allegedly invited a 17-year-old girl to a drug-fueld sex party

And we haven't even hit October, folks. Again, these are all still breaking news stories, so things are subject to change, but oh man oh man.

at some point we gotta acknowledge that getting the majority of your news and takes and general opinions from tumblr is not meaningfully different than getting it from tiktok even though on here it's in textual form. understanding the world through the lens of viral videos vs understanding it through breathless unsourced text posts written by dykeastarion69

Plz reblog for a bigger sample size

I've seen this tweet yesterday and it annoyed me. I don't know if they're serious or trying to be funny. But idk... why do people put the blame on a child and not the adults around her ?

Sandor Clegane was charged by Cersei to find and kill Mycah. And he actually killed him without much problem and didn't seem to feel guilty when Ned asked him about it. Plus, when Sansa lied to Robert, poor Mycah was already dead. So both Cersei and Sandor should be blamed for his death. I'd even add that in the books, Sansa told Ned everything about what happened and he didn't do much either. But I don't see people blaming them either.

About Lady... it's never presented to Sansa, not even once that Lady could have died. And everyone was surprised that Cersei would ask for her death from Arya, to Ned and even Robert. Lady was killed because Cersei wanted it and because Robert didn't have the guts to refuse her that.

And everyting happened in the first place because Joffrey was a fucking bully and wanted to hurt Mycah because nobody thougth of teaching him better.

I'm not saying Sansa was right for lying. But she took the best decision she could in a difficult situation. I do think she wasn't well protected there - and neither Arya. It's crazy to me that Joffrey could walk/talk alone with Sansa. Where was her chaperone ? You don't let your 11 /13 daughter be on her own. Especially in medieval times. Then, when they ask her what happened, there was pressure on her. Joffrey was her fiancé. She was going to marry him. She was raised to be loyal to her future husband. And anyway, everyone was able to tell Sansa was afraid. Robert could tell that his "son" was lying. He admitted himself to Ned.

I'm sorry, but people always erase the whole context of situations when they talk about some scenes. It seems so weird to me.

we really devolved as a society when we stopped using fully painted pictures on romance novels and started using cheap photoshop instead

“To try to not be more interesting but be more interested” literally changed my life perspective btw

[amaeliaa]

Not socialist in a “I won’t have to work” type of way but socialist in a “I’ll still be working but I won’t be worried I won’t make the rent” type of way. In a “billions won’t be hoarded by one person” type of way. In a “janitors, fast-food workers, child care workers, preschool teachers, hotel clerks, personal care and home health aides, and grocery store cashiers, will live comfortably” type of way. In a “the sick and elderly will be cared for” type of way. In a “no child should work” type of way.

This is why we protest police on the MTA. Anyone claiming this doesn’t happen apparently hasn’t heard of a speed trap before.
