I like to
believe – and boy, do I wanna use this in all my sw fanfics – that the clones,
being born from tubes in Kamino, grown and trained there to then fight by the
Jedi, had no contact with toxic masculinity. They never would use “like a girl”
as an insult or think of women as any less than them (fighting by Shaak Ti,
Ahsoka Tano and Aayla Secura’s side helps a lot on that aspect too). They would
never have such things as rape jokes or what disgusting conversations so many
excuse as “locker room talk” and such bullshit.
They would
also never be taught of boys don’t cry
and such shit, so they would feel free to cry on a closer brother’s shoulder at
the news of a dear tooper’s death; they would rest their heads on each other’s
laps on leisure times, they would cuddle each other in cold nights because who
can you trust better to sleep beside you than a vode, a brother who would lay
his life for you and vice versa? They would talk about feelings, no “man up”
shit, and no homophobia too. “I’m hella nervous about asking that twi’lek, help
me out!” “Okay, chill, brother, and first of all fix that helmet hair of yours,
it looks awful. Okay, which twi’lek, I see two green girls, the tall one or the
smaller one?” “None of them, it’s the taller blue one. There.” “Oh. Ohh, that guy. Nice. Go for it.” “But…” “Fine! *downs drink* I’ll wingman ya.”
Give me
emotionally open, physically comfortable, sexually secure clones. Give me all
of it.
All of this is true, trust me. Common sense says it does.
a while back my best friend linked me to a thread on homemade My Little Pony transformation hypnosis tapes
that’s a really loaded sentence so let me ease into it
they were like, hour long recordings you were supposed to lay down and listen to and focus on nothing else, that started off with some relaxation techniques then eased into like, “feel your hands becoming hooves. remember pinkie pie’s happy memories. imagine yourself literally becoming pinkie pie. imagine your pink mane. you are literally pinkie pie”
all with the goal of putting you in a mental state where you were convinced you were this cartoon pony. and it was full of people like “wow! this was so relaxing. i felt like i literally Became rarity”
the problem is that human brains are kind of, buggy? so people, especially if they listened to the tapes too much, started like, accidentally going to this mental state they’d created at random inopportune times. the thread was suddenly full of people desperate to know how to stop it because they were turning into rainbow dash in the middle of driving on a highway to work, or whatever
anyway, i’m just burdened with that knowledge forever, now. i think about it a lot
this post radiates unfathomable amounts of dark energy
this post is contemporary Lovecraft
I can’t believe I’m about to say this in regards to something about bronies, but it’s not nearly racist enough to be Lovecraft.
This is called Afrezza. It’s an inhaler for diabetic insulin. That’s right. An inhaler. That means no more needles. It’s only for fast acting insulin, but it could still vastly improve the life of a lot of diabetics.
Imagine having to constantly prick yourself with needles to keep yourself alive, and then suddenly there’s a new product that could change the whole way you live your life for the better.
And here’s the thing: it works. It works really really well. People with diabetes that have been lucky enough to have used it think it’s amazing.
But sadly, it’s probably going to end up as a failure because the pharmaceutical company (a French company called Sanofi) that was in charge of marketing it didn’t care enough to actually try. Not only that, but they made it incredibly expensive so hardly anyone could afford it. Most people have never heard of it, and the way things are going, no one else ever will.
Please reblog this to raise awareness of this product and hopefully get another company to market it. It could change so many lives.
It would change and save my life. If there’s one thing I hate in the top 5 most in this world. It’s the fucking pharmaceutical, money mongering, heartless industry.
NDP Leader, Jagmeet Singh speaks out against Justin Trudeau’s government using anti worker-back to work legislation against striking Canada Post workers who are on strike trying to improve safety, work-life balance and pay-equity.
All NDP MP’s walked out of Parliament in protest tonight:
I hate to be that person, but like I side with Canada Post Workers, they have every right to be demanding these things… The only issue is, they are making life harder on many people who RELY on Canada Post for their bills, checks, medical, and whatever else. Not only that, it’s very close to Christmas and people order things off the internet, or their mailing things to family and what not for the holidays.
AND THE CHILDREN… They write letters to Santa, and they might just get them at a really stupid time, like after Christmas, or even January. Maybe never even getting them. That’s a bit of a bummer.
Canada Post workers have been demanding a new contract for over a year. This strike didn’t just happen last month. Its been building up since well before last year.
This is on Canada Post. They caused this strike to happen by sitting on their assess and doing nothing for the past 10+ months. If they wanted this strike to have been avoided they could have agreed to CUPW’s very reasonable demands at the beginning of 2018, not at the end of it.
Some things are more important than mail and gifts. People’s lives and livelihoods are at stake here. One of the main thing postal workers are striking for is improved safety, because this job is incredibly dangerous as well as pay-equity for mostly female rural workers.
THAT MEANS THE STRIKE WAS WORKING. It’s on Canada Post to negotiate with the workers in good faith, not the people who just want a safe work environment. This order just means there will be another strike later because the workers still aren’t safe.
because of orders like this, the company knows it can just sit on its ass and do nothing because even when the workers strike, the government will just order them to stop striking.
Also, running rotating strikes means that essential mail is getting delivered, like government cheques (most of which get e-transfered these days anyway, no one sends cheques anymore). Most medication go through private delivery services these days. The only thing really getting disrupted are gifts, cards, and non-essentials. And if you feel those are more important to you than the safety and health of the people who deliver them, you need to get your head checked.
Rotating strikes also means that even those non-essentials are getting delivered, just on a delayed schedule. CUPW deliberately organized the strike to cause maximum disruption and inconvenience to CANADA POST, while minimizing disruption/inconvenience to CONSUMERS.
I’m legitimately so tired of the Disney remakes. Like I can’t even muster up enough energy to be mad about it, I just truly do not care. There hasn’t been one remake I felt compelled to see in theaters, and only a few that I bothered to watch on Netflix. The result is always either no better or actively worse than the original, and if you like watching them that’s fine, but I’m sick to death of the argument that we need these endless remakes so that “a new generation can enjoy the stories”. What planet are you one where you can’t watch a movie more than once? The stories are readily available. I watched plenty of movies as a kid that came out before I was born, there’s literally nothing stopping you.
Also, it used to be when they made a remake they at least had the decency to remake 40+ year old films; now they’re remaking things that came out just a few decades ago and adding practically nothing.
I guess I really don’t see what the appeal is or why they make so much money. I mean I get nostalgia but if I feel nostalgic for an old movie I’ll just… watch that movie.
As I near 200,000 followers here at fishingboatproceeds, I just wanted to say Cock is one of my favorite tastes. Not only that, but balls smell amazing. It makes me go a little crazy on it to be honest. Like, I cannot get it far enough down my throat to be satisfied. I’m only satisfied when I feel those intense, powerful, salty, hot pumps of cum down my throat. When I sit back on my heels, look up at you with cum all over my mouth and slobber running down my neck, hair all fucked up and wipe my mouth with the back of my arm and ask you if I did a good job and you cannot even speak because I’ve drained all of your energy out the tip of your dick….. That’s when I’m satisfied.
this how we lost post editing and it was still worth it
Forest fires are so weird. On what other planet do you just suddenly have such a violent chemical reaction? Idk probably none cause on what other planet do you have a bunch of carbon-carbon bonds sitting immersed in a bunch of oxygen? It’s not a stable situation, and after the fire has to be restored with solar power
Venus!
Fun Venus fact: it has fewer craters on its surface than you’d expect, and they all look suspiciously young. As far as we can tell, the whole surface of Venus is not that much more than a half billion years old. So what makes this so?
It is Earth-sized, which is theoretically enough to sustain tectonic activity. But we don’t see traditional plates there. Remember that Earth’s tectonic plates come in two flavors: continental plates, which are long-lived and low density, floating high in the mantle, and oceanic plates, which are heavier, younger, and are continually refreshed, spreading out from the center of the oceans and being subducted back in to the mantle where they collide with the continents.
As an incidental consequence, this means that a lot of ocean water gets sucked up in to the mantle during the subduction process. Water is very much unstable at tectonic pressures and temperatures, so it usually finds its way back out to the surface as a volcanic gas or something, but in the meantime there’s enough of it down there to lubricate the movement of the plates. Basically on the same principle that makes wastewater injection cause small earthquakes during the fracking process.
Now, Venus is likely to have had liquid water oceans at some point, but the runaway greenhouse effect has long since boiled them off. This means that a)the weight of the oceans doesn’t land disproportionately on a subsets of the plates, and b)there’s no water being pulled down there to keep the plates well-greased. So nowadays on Venus, subduction just… doesn’t happen. The plates are too rigid and dry, too homogeneous. So they stay locked in place relative to one another.
That means Venus has volcanoes but not really earthquakes. The energy that would be released in the motion of plates just builds, and builds, and builds. Until it doesn’t any more. Every [n] hundred million years or so, Venus has its one earthquake, which carries all the accumulated energy of all the earthquakes that ever happened on Earth between now and the Cambrian era, all at once.
This is enough to melt the entire surface and then some. The whole crust, all the mountains and valley networks and continents and basins and everything that floats on the fluid mantle, is subducted all at once, falling back in the planet’s interior. Then, with the whole planet molten, the surface can cool enough to form a new crust.
Anyway, that’s why global warming is bad.
Holy fuck
The whole crust
Melts
All at once????

alarming for my Venusian real estate portfolio if true
the scene in return of the king where gandalf gets pippin to light gondor’s beacons is a lot funnier when you remember that pippin has already sworn fealty to denethor, which means that he’s a legal citizen of the city and servant of its ruler and therefore committing high treason
