I’ve made this post like six times but it still fucks me up the China’s mountains just look like that. Like I spent decades thinking it was stylistic but no, they just have different mountains over there.

Me: Okay guys remember that it’s important in improv to establish your characters at the beginning of the scene.

Students: ok

Student 1: Hello. I am the president of the United States.

Student 2: Hello madame president. I’m William Shakespeare and I’m here to assassinate you.

Yeah it takes the approximate time of a human lifetime for the derangement to set in. Plus, some of them have been quoted as saying ‘it’s better than what dad would do if we wanted that freedom anyway, so yeah. Plus, the wings are delicious’

There's a place just down the street where they chop off angel's wings and fry them in oil. You should try some. Oh, the angels? Yeah they're regular people now. Simultaneously their freedom of flight is ripped away from them violently and yet at the same time they are granted freedom from the yoke of divine subservience so it's bitter sweet for them or some gay shit like that. Anyways the wings are really good.

I don't think I'm bossy exactly I mean I tend to take charge and I usually have a vision for how I like things to be done and oh my god I'm bossy

for as mid as the storytelling of bbc sherlock was, we absolutely do need to give them credit for the camera-move-during-the-freeze-frame trick they did for the wedding scene. cinematographically spectacular.

this thing. credit where credit is due, this was cool as fuck

the analogy’s meaning is that the thing that trump will give them is More than what Biden is giving them. It’s not literal, it’s an analogy. What this is telling me is that you are understanding things at a superficial level, and not seeing the meaning, point of, or intent behind things

Dem collapse among Arab voters is precisely what the party has incessantly made clear it deserves this year

he's not 'egging them on' he is literally stating that when in office he would take action to make it worse. Saying 'yeah, go! go!' is a liiiiiiiiiiiiittle different than saying 'when I get power, I'm going to use it to help you, more than the current power-holders are'

If I see someone beating someone else up, there's a difference between saying 'yeah, get him!!' and promising 'hey, tomorrow I can bring you a gun, so you can shoot this guy instead of just punching him'

Does this help clarify things?

If it does not, I do not know how else I can explain how voting for/supporting trump is more detrimental to the cause you claim to care about

A large part of housecat vocalisation toward humans isn’t goal-directed communication, but rather, affiliative signaling: a simple call-and-response protocol which establishes that the participants are part of the same social unit. Amongst themselves, most housecat affiliative signaling is non-vocal, but humans aren’t really physiologically equipped to respond to such signalling in a feline fashion, and cats, well, they’re adaptable.

Which is to say that when your cat yells, and you yell back, so the cat yells again, and so forth, what you’re really saying to each other is “hiiiiii~”.

Tell me you’re not paying attention to the issue you claim to care so much about without telling me

…… Trump is significantly worse on this issue. Protest votes against this problem put the guy who’s gonna be So Much Worse about this problem in office.

I find it very difficult to shop for skirts. They're always.... so hard to coordinate an outfit with. I don't think I understand fashion.

Hey quick question about the AI "art" post, what do you mean with the last post in the reblogs chain? I'm having a bit of difficulty understanding even after having read a few times.

To be specific, what do you mean by "I don't care if your art gets used nonconsensually in training data"?

/genuine question

I literally meant that I don't care if your art gets used nonconsensually in training data, i think it's a non-issue. it is so far down in the list of reasons to dislike this technology yet somehow perpetually remains the main talking point. It's not categorically art theft, litigating it would basically mean the litigation of right click saving jpgs.
