hot take: children aren’t your slaves. they aren’t free house cleaners, dish washers, or laundry doers. they’re not slaves. there’s a difference between having your kids help around the house and taking advantage of them. it’s not your child’s job to clean up your messes. if you made dinner and left a big mess, it does not automatically become your child’s mess to clean up. i don’t care how old they are.

the older kids get, it’s just assumed they’ll take over household responsibilities. certain things, like putting their clothes away, are fine. but cleaning the windows, cabinets, and bathroom? you want your car cleaned? do that shit yourself. do you really think a kid has nothing better to do than scrub your floors? no, so cut your shit and do your job as a parent by not forcing your children to do the things you’re too lazy to do.

I still can’t stress this enough how the last sentence in the movie where Eddie asks Venom what did he want to do now and Venom answers “We can do whatever we want” was changed in polish dub to “Whatever you want, you’re my soulmate after all”

[mikazure]

Another interesting changes:

Original: “You’re making us look bad”

Polish dub: “-We look like an idiot.

-No, we don’t.

-Like a moron.”

Original: “Cooperate and you might just survive”

Polish dub: “Obey me/Listen to me and I might just spare you”

Original: “-What really made you change your mind?

-You. You did, Eddie.”

Polish dub: “-Why did you change your plan?

-Why? Now you’re my plan, Eddie.”

There will come a day when

• Everyone will use your correct pronouns
• No one will use your deadname
• You will be able to be fully, unabashedly yourself

If for no other reason,

Stay alive for that day

So I just had a thought

What if supernatural creatures don’t exist anymore? What if they did once, but through the years, they slowly mixed in with humans?

You can see the blood of fairies in the way a ballet dancer hovers in mid air before he or she hits the ground. You can see it in the way that middle school girl never forgets when someone makes her a promise. You can see it in how that one little boy in the kindergarten class seems more comfortable in the forest on that field trip than the others.

You can see the blood of dryads in hikers who never trip over roots. You can see it in that suburban grandmother never lets any of her garden die. You can see it in that one kid who climbs a tree faster than his friends, barely looking at the branches as he goes.

You can see the blood of naiads in the way a professional swimmer seems to command the water to help them. You can see it in how a cross country runner needs a water break more often than his teammates. You can see it in the way that one girl in your class always has a water bottle on her desk.

You can see the blood of mermaids in a surfer who can be tossed around underwater for a long time without drowning. You can see it in a teenage boy who doesn’t have to pretend to be unbothered by the pressure when he races his friends to the bottom of a swimming pool. You can see it in the little girl who wades into every stream she sees on a hike without quite knowing why.

You can see the blood of sirens in people who never have a problem with getting people to date them. You can see it in that soprano who can hit notes most of her fellows can only dream of. You can see it in the camp counselor who all the straight girls have a crush on, who can play guitar and sing better than any of the others.

You can see the blood of shapeshifters in the way an actor adjusts their personality to become their character with scary accuracy. You can see it in the subconscious, barely noticeable changes a tween girl’s eyes make to match her outfit better. You can see it in the way you always lose that one friend in a crowd if you’re not careful, because he’s just too good at blending in.

People who carry the blood of werewolves don’t change with the full moon anymore, but you can still see it in the way your best friend always knows something is wrong, though even they don’t know they’re smelling the changes in your body chemistry. You can see it in the way that one guy always seems to eat more than the reasonable amount of red meat at an all-you-can-eat buffet. You can see it in the way that one werido never has a problem when the teacher turns off the lights before a PowerPoint presentation because her eyes adjust quicker and better than yours.

The blood of supernatural creatures may have mostly faded away. But if you look closely, you can still see it.

reasons i want to be rich

• to randomly fill up people’s entire gofundme’s
  
• to be able to tip a thousand dollars to a stressed server at a restaurant
  
• to give really good gifts for birthdays that arent just gift cards
• to be able to actually afford my real sense of style
• to pay my mom’s bills and debts

reasons i dont want to be rich

• to hoard the entire fucking planet’s resources and kill off the world’s population slowly

Ugh but imagine. Just freaking imagine. Walking around. Finding someone on a corner with a cardboard sign asking for help. Sauntering up, reaching into your pocket and casually handing them a fistful of $100 dollar bills. Imagine.

Rich people could do that. They just…could. They have a literal superpower. They could make sure someone doesn’t sleep in the cold tonight. They could make sure someone gets the medical treatment that could save their life. They could wander into a collections agency and buy up the contracts and spend all day calling people and telling them their debt has been forgiven. They could wander into a hospital and pay off all the outstanding bills, or wander into a bank and pay off someone’s mortgage.

If they really wanted to, rich people could be superheroes.

But they don’t. They would rather watch a now so-big-it’s-meaningless number tic up in their offshore accounts while the world starves and dies around them because…winning?

I just don’t get it.

Two kinds of people:

People who took the news of feathered dinosaurs like this:

And those who took it like this:

[mister-skulls]

I hate it when people say “science ruined dinosaurs” as though dinosaurs are just some pop culture monster invention and not real things that existed and that we are continuing to make new discoveries about

[ryuukiba]

Amen

[atomic-darth]

Listen I don’t care if you think feathers on a dinosaur look stupid if a 9 ton apex predator is coming at you at 25 mph, you’re not going to laugh at its feathers. YOU’RE GOING TO HAUL ASS

[andygrayselfie]

Most of y’all are afraid of geese and they have feathers.

Imagine a 9 ton goose that’s about to fuck your shit up.
