Claire. Cali. He/Him. Mostly just bits from whatever is holding my interest at the moment. DC Comics, Legends of Tomorrow, Steven Universe, Star Trek. Gaming. Critical Role, Dungeons and Dragons in general.
I am gently taking your hands and begging you, BEGGING YOU, to understand that humans are not inherently harmful to the planet. We are animals who are part of the ecosystem. We belong here. This is our home. We belong here. You belong here. Yes, you belong here.
Please don’t become an eco-fascist the next 1,260 days. I know it’s tempting but please don’t.
y'know. in the incredibles, if the government was in charge of helping the supers integrate into normal society, how the hell did they not notice them dropping like flies to syndrome. there are SO MANY terminated superheroes in that one scene. were they not checking up on them. regular wellness checks seem kind of important to do for people who could blow up a house with a sneeze
i’m seeing responses of “the government would be glad to not have to deal with them” i think the cartoon government ought to be concerned about the disappearance of multiple people who could blow up a house with a sneeze. you’d really want to know where those people are at all times. you want to be sure they aren’t leaving the country and going over to the other side, whatever that is in the incredibles world. you do not want to lose track of these people.
gamma jack was a walking nuclear bomb with a radius of 100 meters. dude. YOU WANT TO KNOW WHERE HE IS AT ALL TIMES.
“they were in on it with syndrome” really is the most plausible answer
For a second I didn’t realize it meant “high” as in a stoner–I thought “High Geologist” was like a rank of geologist or something and he was insulted you would challenge him to naming stones
Comedians in the ‘70s and cartoons in the '90s: weird how your kids can watch violence and murder on TV but the FCC wants us dead if we say the word nipple.
Internet users in 2025: you didn’t warn me that there would be erotic themes in the game you just mentioned which is fucked up because I thought it was going to be a normal “morally struggle with killing people” game but now it’s gone too far :-/
A lot of you are playing into a lot more reactionary of hands than I think you would like when you act like tits are more shocking than gun violence.
We need to call people posers again. We gotta. We just gotta. No you aren’t a countercultural weirdo because you made a battle jacket, you get tangibly viscerally uncomfortable if someone is breast feeding in public and that is incredibly square of you.
It’s so, SO important to share success stories like this. I know an actual JPL engineer who doesn’t believe in climate change because, “you never hear about acid rain anymore.”
He thinks climate change can be lumped in with acid rain and the ozone layer of “things that were overblown and not really important because no one talks about it anymore.”
It’s also important to talk about success stories tonfuel hope that we can overcome current and future conservation and environmental issues.
We fixed the hole in the Ozone layer too.
I wish I could take this post, go back in time, and shove it in the face of literally everyone.
All of these problems are fixable
I wanted to share this: WE FIGURED OUT HOW TO BRING BACK DEAD CORAL!!! By using sounds of living coral to attract fish.
Coral can be saved!!! This planet is way more resilient than we give it credit for. And we don’t give humans enough flowers for stopping the harm billionaires cause.
I think one big reason why we don’t consider the stars as important as before (not even pop-astrology anymore cares about the stars or the sky on itself, just the signs deprived of context) is because of light pollution.
For most of human history the sky looked between 1-3, 4 at most. And then all of a sudden with electrification it was gone (I’m lucky if I get 6 in my small city). The first time I saw the Milky Way fully as a kid was a spiritual experience, I was almost scared on how BRIGHT it was, it felt like someone was looking back at me. You don’t get that at all with modern light pollution.
When most people talk about stargazing nowadays they think about watching about a couple of bright dots. The stars are really, really not like that. The unpolluted night sky is a festival of fireworks. There is nothing like it.
There are things you can do about it!
darksky.org has great resources to help improve light pollution in your communities and they’ve had some really cool successes!
*checks urban legend notes* Victor Hugo was closer to God than any of us?
idk man I’ve read Les Miserables, I think it’s fair to say that his empathy and compassion for the sex worker is not merely transactional. I don’t think there’s a contradiction there, and I don’t think the prostitutes of Paris were mourning just for their best client. I think he saw worthy and valuable people everywhere, and people felt that.
also yeah dude fucked like a rat on bath salts
[Image in the first post is a tweet that reads “Oh, you think you follow in the path of Christ? Name one sex worker who would cry over your death.”]
a secret they dont tell you is that you dont need to have a set time and place for exercise. sure going to the gym is gonna give you a more dedicated workout but like if you’re physically able to you can just jog on the spot while your food is cooking. brushing your teeth? do a couple of squats. sometimes i drop to the floor and plank until my arms hurt and then go on with my day. if you live a sedentary lifestyle its better than nothing.
i think a lot of people say theyre gonna get fit and try to jump into a multi-hour 5 times a week workout and then burn out immidiately which is like. yeah man huge routine changes are hard. you cant just go from zero to 100. have you tried doing jumping jacks in your living room it’s way easier to stick to i prommy.
