I'll save you from the cherry cordials by eating them. You can have my almond clusters (and the caramels and toffees, because I can't have them any more thanks to a crown I need to take care to preserve)

I'm disqualifying the peanut butter chocolate due to my peanut allergy. Out of the rest the cherry cordial is easily the worst.

well-raised pitbulls are lovely, animal abusers need to be in jail, and people who send posts like this should go touch grass... and then step in the dog doo someone else didn't pick up from said grass.

Why is someone sending my dog hate mail

re: the 'Sith Lords are our specialty' line... look, I despise Palpatine but I have to reluctantly give the man credit for not breaking out laughing right in Obi-Wan's face.

Luke saying “you’ll find i’m full of surprises” to Vader before losing his lightsaber and falling down some stairs is such a life mood

every time you think you might be drawing them too handsome, gaze upon the face of Temuera Morrison and realize that no, you are not, he really IS that handsome

Do you have any tips or references you use for drawing Cody or the other clone troopers? I’m trying to get better at drawing them, and need some advice.

Hello there!

If you are looking for good clone armour references, check Sketchfab They have plenty of 3D models of clones but also other star wars stuff (I always use it for the guns, helmets or shoes because these are the things I'm struggling the most with haha)

As for how to draw Clones face, just look for young Temuera Morrison pictures and use them as references. Look at this handome man

Perfection!

It might be hard at the beginning but when I am learning how to draw a character, I always try to find features that are very characteristic for them. In case of clones, it's their nose shape, their curly hair (I refuse tcw animation hair no thank you) and their rather round face (again, not using tcw as reference)

I hope this helps! I did a 'how to draw clones' tutorial in the past but it's very outdated when it comes to my style now 😂

Let me know in case you guys have more questions, I'm always happy to help! <3

Admitting that you don't want kids because you're not a natural caregiver and wouldn't be able to give them a good life is the complete opposite of selfish, actually

sorry if i’m being a party pooper but because rabies is apparently the new joke on here ??? please remember that rabies has an almost 100% fatality rate after symptoms develop so if you’re bitten or scratched by an animal that you aren’t 100% sure is vaccinated then GO TO A DOCTOR. it’s not a joke. really.

Shout out to mentally ill people who dropped out of school

- shout out to the kids who were “so bright” and ‘heading somewhere” and had to drop out because school was too much to handle along with mental illness

- shout out to the kids who struggled to get where they got before they dropped out

- shout out to the kids who tried and tried and tried and still couldn’t finish

you aren’t unintelligent because you dropped out of school, you aren’t a delinquent or a bad person because you dropped out of school, just because you did what you had to doesn’t make you a bad person

I am begging the FDA to require that companies CANNOT just put "spices" as an ingredient but have to label the spices.

"Spices" can mean "this has some oregano and black pepper in it" or it can mean "this has cumin cayenne and paprika and if you eat this you will be sick in bed in pain for a week" for me.

Seriously, this is an allergy issue and a huge oversight on the part of corporations.

Require detailed labeling of spices used in packaged foods NOW.

As a society we have benefited so much from successful public health measures that we now have the privilege of declaring that we must not need them anymore

Bitch before enriched flour, neural tube defects like spina bifida were far more common. Even now, spina bifida clinicians and researchers are begging to have salt and maize fortified to reach groups that don’t use as much flour. Before iodized salt, the United States had a fucking GOITER BELT. Eleven years after the introduction of fluoridated water, a city in Michigan found the rate of dental caries among school children dropped a staggering 60%— in an era where tooth decay regularly fucking killed people

I’m literally not even going to start on vaccines, which are among the most successful and robustly studied public health measures in world history

You might say “oh well today we all have access to vitamins and toothpastes and dentists so we don’t need those things in our food supplies” and boy do white people on social media loooove to fucking say that. But here’s the thing: no, people don’t all have easy access to those things. That’s privilege talking yet again

they went off with this

[just-a-geekygoth]

if you don't do anything else today,

Please have a moment of silence for the people who were killed instead of freed when news of emancipation finally reached the furthest corners of the american south.

have another moment for the ledgers, catalogs, and records that were burned and the homes that were destroyed to hide the presence of very much alive and still enslaved people on dozens of plantations and homesteads across the south for decades after emancipation.

and have a third moment for those who were hunted and killed while fleeing the south to find safety across the border, overseas, in the north and to the west.

black people. light a candle, write a note to those who have passed telling them what you have achieved in spite of the racist and intolerant conditions of this world, feel the warmth of the flame under your hand, say a prayer of rememberance if you are religious, place the note under the candle, and then blow it out.

if you have children, sit them down and tell them anything you know about the life of oldest black person you've ever met. it doesn't have to be your own family. tell them what you know about what life was like for us in the days, years, decades after emancipation. if you don't know much, look it up and learn about it together.

This is Juneteenth.

white people CAN interact with this post. share it, spread it.

The GI Rights Hotline is a non-profit run by civilians that offers free, confidential counseling and resources for anyone trying to leave the US military, whether by conscientious objection, going AWOL, or any other means. Their toll-free number is 1-877-447-4487 

The Center on Conscience and War is a non-profit run by civilians collects resources for people who might be targets of the US military’s predatory recruitment process, including this list of alternatives to enlistment, organized by state, that offer the same benefits that the branches of the military (claim to) offer, such as experience, travel, money for college, etc - without killing people in the name of western imperialism. If you want to register as an official conscientious objector or otherwise avoid combat in any way, their toll-free number is 1-800-379-2679

War is a racket. Don’t throw your life away for a government that doesn’t care about you. If you know anyone who’s considering enlisting or who’s already enlisted and considering getting out, please talk to them and share these resources

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants. Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this. Do not.
