I still remember the way she walked into my office, which is a good sign, as it only happened this morning.

I looked her up and down; mostly down, I’m pretty tall.

She had a face.

Her lips were saying hello but her eyes were telling a very different story, blinking in morse code about the assassin in the air vent.

She knew she had me right where she wanted me: at my desk, in my office, at 11am, the time we had scheduled for this appointment.

As she leaned in close I couldn’t help noticing the kind of details that would give you an uncomfortable degree of insight into the precise contours of the author’s sexual obsessions. It was awkward.

I promised her I’d do whatever I could, because promising to do whatever I couldn’t sounded dangerously illogical.

She reached over and took a swig from the bottle on my desk in a way that was clearly intended to be alluring and transgressive but honestly just felt a little rude, and besides there could have been absolutely anything in that bottle, window cleaner, who knows. As it happens it was only water — I’m trying to stay hydrated and kick the booze habit I picked up after the untimely death of my partner — but she still knocked it back and grimaced just for show.

This Dane meant trouble. (She was from Denmark).

A huge number of people are already getting fucked over when it comes to being allowed to cast a vote in the upcoming elections. Let’s try to minimize what that number COULD be as much as possible.

It might also be useful to have the number for the ACLU written down (or already in your phone) so you can CALL THEM while still at the polling place and get whatever information is needed in order to see about having the ACLU sue them. Write down names. Get witnesses. Take photos. MAKE IT VERY CLEAR TO THE POLLSTERS THAT YOU ARE GOING TO HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE. (Unless you have reason to believe they’re going to be assholes and try to have you arrested for doing so, in which case, be as subtle as possible.)

Some more info on this, state by state.

^^ Really look at the state by state info so just in case this happens you’ll know what to do!

Increasing amounts of “per my last email” in letters between Husband and Father-In-Law discussing Wife’s income from the family fortune

Husband: “HAVE YOU HAD THE BABY YET I’M SO WORRIED I WADED THROUGH A FLOOD TO GET TO THE POST OFFICE”

Husband: “Get the baby a suit of armor or I’m sure to crush her with hugs when I get home”

Wife: “Teenage Daughter, could you send me my gold lamé turban?”

I sat there staring into space mouthing “what” for like a solid minute

I want to see this hat SO BADLY

Husband: “Son was firing his toy cannon at my office door, so I had to sally forth and valiantly seize the enemy munitions!”

Teenage Daughter: “My friend and I had our mutual admirer guess which of us had made which pudding to win a pair of gloves from one of us.”

Wife quotes Byron NONSTOP

Wife: “Fuck slave-owners and fuck the Missouri Compromise.”

Yes, they were abolitionists

Yes, they actually did treat their servants well and pay them fairly

Husband: “That old widow I rent to is behind with her payments, but don’t evict her because that would be inhumane, especially since it’s winter.”

Husband: “Wife, remember to wear your flannel petticoats to stay warm- and so I can take them off you when I get home.”

Also Husband, not paraphrased: “How close I should lie to you and how hard I should love you if I were there.”

WONDER WHY THEY HAD 11 KIDS

Husband: “On our tenth anniversary, I just wanted to say that you’re as beautiful to me as always and I love you the most that anyone has ever loved anyone else in the history of the world.”

Wife: “Hi yes I also love you the most that anyone has ever loved anyone else in the history of the world.”

Wife: “My handwriting sucks and I’ve burned three attempts at this letter already but HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT THIS AWESOME TREE I SAW BESIDE THE ROAD YESTERDAY”

Husband makes so. many. puns. Help.

Wife: “Send two or three pounds of the best chocolate you can find, please.”

Husband: “We have ice cream with dinner every day here- don’t be jealous!”

Husband: “Young Adult Daughter, I wrote a poem about your rejected suitors. Here it is.”

Unfortunately I cannot remember the poem at the moment. But there was a part like, “And as for Frank Lyman/He’ll never be my man.”

Just roasting a bunch of young men with surnames you now see on Boston street signs

To Be Continued.

op please post the husband’s puns. I need them for reasons.

the best one I can recall is his Sick Burn™ at a fellow Massachusetts congressman after said colleague made a stupid mistake

the man’s name was Salem Towne. yes, really. Husband said that his parents were a few miles off when they named him

“They called you Salem Towne, but they should have called you Marble Head [Marblehead being a town near Salem].”

I have concluded that the Skywalker males inherit all the chaotic dumbass genes in the family. Leia was competent, so she obviously didn’t have it. But she inherited the dumassexual gene from her mother, which explains the attraction to Han.

Poor Ben got the gene from both sides. There was no hope for the kid.

The woman in this orchestra is playing an instrument called *Theremin:*…. it is a…. *quantum instrument that is played only with the energy of the hands.* Only three countries in the world have music schools where one can learn to play the Theremin. Russia, Japan and Ireland. It’s a beautiful sound! Theremin was invented by *Leon Theremin*, a Russian who in 1920 introduced him to Vladimir Ilich Ulíanov, aka Lenin, and was impressed by its sound. He sent 600 pieces and sent Leon to the world to make him known. It is an *instrument that forms a magnetic field and is played without being touched.* It almost sounds like the human voice.

Leia wakes up in her bed, jolting up and clutching her chest, breath shallow. She gasps, looking around to her bedroom and shaking Han’s shoulder. The former spice runner is fast asleep, mouth hanging open, but not for long.

Han groans, rolling on his side to snap one eye open to look up at his wife.

“What? Whatever it is, it was Chewie’s fault.”

“Han!” Leia exclaims, pulling her confused husband into her arms “Oh Han, it was a terrible dream!”

Han was still too groggy to think, so he muttered:

“Oh I know, princess. Did you dream you were at a meeting with all those pompous delegates but you forgot to put your pants on? I get that dream a lot. I’m not wearing any pants, then King Whatshisface walks over to shake my hand and I say…”

Leia places her hand over her husband’s mouth.

“Han, I swear it had nothing to do with pants.”

-

During breakfast, Han is actually cackling.

“So the kid…”

“Ben”, Leia corrects him

“Ben. He became a knockoff darth Vader and killed me?” Han laughs harder “That’s the most convoluted way for your brain to say that you wanna kill me.”

“I don’t…” Leia rolls her eyes “Luke, tell Han to stop laughing. Don’t force-sensitive people tend to have predictive dreams? Couldn’t this be a vision of the future?”

Luke takes a sip of coffee, one eyebrow raised.

“I’m sorry, did you say I went away to live in an island wearing the same dirty robe all day?” Luke makes a gesture for his brand new boots and cape “I can’t see that happening.”

“But I was a general!” Leia insists “Cleaning up after both of your messes! That sounds very possible!”

“Ok, ok, sure” Han takes another bite of his eggs “But you also forgave that asshole kid of yours that basically killed me and built a new Empire after all we’ve been through to destroy that last one. Do you see yourself doing that?”

Leia hesitates, sitting down.

“W-well, he would be my son, I would have to try and understand-”

Luke raises a hand, smiling to himself.

“Leia, after I told you we were siblings and Vader- Anakin was our father, what did you say?”

“I…”

“Go on”

“I said…” Leia’s cheeks become slightly pink “I said…”

“You said,” Han says almost giddily “‘I already have a father, his name was Bail. And when I find Vader, I will shoot him, and then I’ll shoot him again, and then I’ll shoot him one last time just for good measure.”

“Which means” Luke continued “nothing in your dreams makes sense at all.”

Han and Luke high-five, laughing even louder, and Han reaches over the table for Leia’s hand, caressing it gently.

“It was just a dream, princess.”

Luke squeezes her shoulder once.

“Yes, sister. It was just a dream.”

And Leia smiled, soothing feeling settling in her heart.

“It was just a dream.”

Big buzz about program to turn lawns into pollinator habitat:

hope-for-the-planet:

The Lawns to Legumes program will be holding at least 20 workshops around Minnesota to teach landowners how to make their yards more pollinator-friendly. Efforts are also being made to change local ordinances that require short, grass-only lawns.

The program also provides funding to homeowners within the habitat of the endangered rusty patched bumblebee, who can apply for up to $500 to help convert their yard to bumblebee habitat.

According to Dan Shaw, senior ecologist for the Board of Water and Soil Resources:

“There is research showing that even small plantings can provide a lot of benefit for pollinators, especially if we have enough of them and can create a matrix of the habitat, it can provide a lot of benefits for different pollinators.”

rainydaydecaf:

Aziraphale’s phone rings. He answers, expecting it to be Crowley. But to his surprise, it’s a demon he’s never met.

“I’m Crowley’s replacement,” the demon says.  “He’s not done anything impressive lately, and Downstairs doesn’t like how ineffective he is at keeping you in line. So now he’s shuffling paperwork and scooping up hellhound shit while I do his job for him.”

“Ah… I see,” Aziraphale says icily.  “Well, I most assuredly do not look forward to working with you.”

The demon laughs.  “Feeling’s mutual.”

Twenty-four hours later, the demon is very surprised to find himself discorporated in his sleep. He can’t explain what happened, he has absolutely no idea.

“Don’t let it happen again,” Beelzebub says, annoyed, and sends the demon back up.

After a mere three days, the demon ends up discorporated again.

A new replacement is sent up. This one lasts for a week and a day.

A third replacement is sent up. This one lasts for exactly four hours.

Three demons are sent up next time. Two manage to stay alive for at least five months. In that time, they botch four very important temptations, and the citizens of London inexplicably find their daily lives much improved in thousands of little ways. Traffic and pollution are nonexistent, injury and illness are miraculously avoided. Church attendance is up five hundred percent, and every politician and CEO is struck by the urge to donate as much money as possible to charity. There’s a general feeling of contentedness and goodwill in the air that wasn’t there before. It feels downright heavenly.

Suddenly, Beelzebub is having a very hard time finding anyone to take Crowley’s post. Bribes and threats make no difference. The rumors have spread and only grown more disturbing in the telling. Not one demon is willing to go up there and face the cold, calculated, merciless wrath of the angel known as Aziraphale.

Crowley absolutely loses it when someone gets around to telling him. “Y’know, I could’ve warned you,” he says gleefully.  “Been working with him for thousands of years. I know exactly how much of a bastard he can be.”

After running the numbers and seeing how many souls they’ve lost to Heaven in the past year, Beelzebub gives up and concludes that trying to replace Crowley is a massive waste of resources Hell can’t afford.

After one year, Aziraphale receives another phone call. He answers, with bated breath, and nearly shouts for joy when he hears a familiar voice.

“Hi, angel. Lunch on me?”

Female pilots edited out of the Star Wars movies.

I saw the tweets about this today, and I was like oh yeah, I remember hearing about that.

And then I saw the pictures and just— wow. What it would have meant to have these women in the movie, all this time. I can’t properly articulate it but it’s hitting me unexpectedly hard.

Wow thats a shame, even a nice old lady too. These Space Valkyries should have been left in.

They really should have.

ADSVFISIDCNCIDSVHIUEFUHFIDHuvririahfuwvrui4m8ywmu36 8hthfahuiharahfiargnihiurhurhaigoznifrbogirifrbgorbzo154+849848e54645w8va0

WHAT.

THE.

FUCK.

I lived, ate, and breathed Star Wars from age 2 until 2005 when RotS finally beat the enthusiasm out of me, and I have NEVER, EVER in all my reading on behind-the-scenes and makings-of heard of these shots. It’s a shame there was no relaunched edit of the original trilogy they could have slipped these in OH FUCKING WAIT THERE’S BEEN LIKE 3 OF THOSE NOW.

Fuck. FUCK. Whoever decided to edit out and bury these needs to french kiss an angle grinder.

I want to see the old lady in the A-Wing. Seriously, it’s like, she’s somebody’s grandma. Some kid in the Outer Rim Territories got greased by the Empire for seeing something she wasn’t supposed to see, and her grandma, the bush pilot, decided “Fuck this, I’m gonna strap on an fighter and make the Empire fucking PAY for the moment it decided to fuck with MY FAMILY.”

DON’T. MESS. WITH. GRANDMA.

These are quickly being put into the “always reblog” category.

Whenever there is a war, there are women who are warriors. Then they get erased from history. Happens in real wars and fictional ones alike.

Less than 5% of general aviation licenses go to women. If these had been left in, you can bet that number would be higher.

^^^That knocked the breath out of me.

I just can’t believe they not only took them out, but refused to put them back in during the seventeen times they updated the movies. And of course the only possible explanation for this is: you do not belong here.

Literally though. How many stupid remasters have they done but THIS gets left out? Ugh

for the record the names of these characters are Sila Kott played by Poppy Hands and Dorovio Bold played by Vivienne Chandler. I couldn’t find the name of the old woman though :(

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Dorovio_Bold “As well as her appearance in the briefing, footage of the character in a cockpit during the Battle of Endor was also filmed, but not used in the final cut of the movie.”

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Sila_Kott “Although played by British actress Poppy Hands in Return of the Jedi, Sila Kott was later dubbed over by an American man’s voice.”

I’ve seen these photos before, and it didn’t even OCCUR to me that they could have been restored during the special edition.

It would have meant so much.

I was struck hard by all the women in The Last Jedi. During that first scene, where you see all the women in every job, in the First Order AND the Resistance… I started to cry.

Something I noticed during Rise of Skywalker that some of those stormtroopers had distinctly *female* voices.

It’s nowhere near enough.

dungeonmemester:

Tonight’s realization: Pokémon is a Solarpunk setting.

Evidence:

“Science is amazing!” / Science as a recurring theme

Coexisting with nature (pokémon) is a major theme

Healthcare is free for everyone

Society is generally safe enough for 10-year-olds to travel alone with only their pets. In fact, it’s almost common for children to do so.

Urban sprawl is pretty well contained in most regions.

Wilderness conservation is a well-kept priority

Most people walk or bike everywhere, and those who don’t usually ride pokémon. There are few cars to cause smog.

Solar & Wind energy is used in many places, even small towns like New Bark.

Cultural love of science coexists with respect for tradition and spirituality (mediums, psychics, aura readers, etc)

It’s a possible, nearby, optimistic, future (besides the pocket monsters themselves ofc). Very little of Pokémon’s tech is too far off modern tech.

When I was in college, I wrote a paper on the real life applications of zombies.

Whether you love them or you’re sick of them, zombies as a pop cultural milestone are incredibly useful when it comes to disaster preparation. Organizations like the CDC and FEMA will run drills to train their staff using “zombie outbreak” scenarios. Parents of young children are encouraged to frame home disaster plans in terms of zombie attacks, because zombies are a fun Halloween thing, rather than something as real and scary as a tornado or a house fire.

But I notice it in other parts of my life.

I was looking into a setup for making my own rope, because reasons. When I was asked why I would even care about how to do something like that, I didn’t have to explain that it’s a neat skill to have and I like the idea of being a little more reliant on myself and a little less reliant on Target. I said “in case of zombies,” and the other person nodded like I’d said something perfectly reasonable.

Same goes when I’m making arguments for why I’d rather know how to repair my own clothes than buy new ones. I could talk about ecological waste and sweatshop labor and all that stuff, or I could say “yeah, but when the zombies come, I won’t be the one with holes in my socks.”

And yes, the person on the other side probably already knows a lot of that other stuff without me reiterating it for the thousandth time, but also, constantly talking about all the ways the world sucks is really not doing my mental health any favors. Sometimes it’s better to take a step back and pretend the scariest things we’re facing are a bunch of movie monsters that can be outpaced with a brisk walk.

You know what? This is actually really good advice.

I’m a broke student living on the 8th floor of a student housing place and I don’t know how often I wasn’t able to buy groceries because the elevator was broken. Or how often we didn’t have flowing water for a few hours, or I couldn’t wash my clothes because I didn’t have the change for the laundromat.

And a lot of times when there is one of those situations, I realise that I’m not completely prepared for that, because you never remember to prepare for everything. I’m not gonna go: i need to stack up on candles in case of a blackout. I need basic non-perishable food items so I can make easy meals if I’ve run out of money or don’t have the time/energy to go shopping. I need hand washing detergent in case I can’t use the laundromat for whatever reason. I need cash for when I can’t go to the atm. But the ‘zombie scenario’ includes all of that. A stack of water bottles? - Zombies. No-heat food stuff? - Zombies. Flashlight? - Zombies. Med kid? - Zombies. Extra batteries? - Zombies. Enough medicine for 3 days? - Zombies.

“Could I survive, alone, for 3-5 days in case of zombies?” is a pretty good question to prepare for emergencies but also to make sure there is something to fall back on in case you hit a rough patch (whether it’s a depressive episode, running out of money or just having a very stressful week).

I know that’s not what you were talking about, but I find it really helpful.

(I would also very much like to read your essay on the use of zombie)

This is exactly what I was talking about– I think you articulated it a whole lot better than I did.

I’m really glad you found it helpful!

P sure the cdc makes a zombie preparedness guide because no one was actually following their national disaster guide (which is exactly the same guide).

It literally does.

A few people have been asking about the essay– sorry, folks, but that was lost to oblivion years ago.

Why are you calling him Ben Solo like it’s a pet name

Adam Driver is beautiful

Droids?

Why did C-3PO have a red arm

I can’t believe they shelved R2D2 for BB-8 so they could sell toys

Do droids have rights?

Droids are sentient and represent a slave class in the Star Wars universe

Droids have free will and are choosing to help humans

How does everyone understand droid beeps?

How Does Everyone Speak Wookie?

Is Wookie the lingua franca of the galaxy

Like Boats Beating Back Into the Past

Force Awakens was too nostalgic

The Last Jedi wasn’t nostalgic at all and it ruined what I loved about Star Wars when I was a bébé

The Rise of Skywalker was too nostalgic

Star Wars shouldn’t be nostalgic

Star Wars needs to be nostalgic but not too much but just enough

The sequels are about the original trio

The sequels shouldn’t be about the original trio

Cassian Andor should Call Me

Rogue One was amazing

Rogue One was terrible

Rogue One is the only good Star Wars movie

That Vader scene was dope

Yeah, the Vader scene was pretty dope

Why is there only one woman in Rogue One

Why do Star Wars movies always look radically different from their trailers?

Is That Ansel Elgort?

Fuck Solo

Darth Maul, though

The Mandalorian

The Mandalorian will save Star Wars

i hate Disney+

But… Baby Yoda… Capitalism won again

I don’t think it’s always Pedro Pascal under the mask

I’ve devised a system of body language interpretation to figure out when it is Pedro Pascal under the mask

Baby Yoda is a balm for my soul

If the Mandalorian is a Western, Baby Yoda is a native child that has been stolen

Don’t call it Baby Yoda. We do not know its species and Yoda died decades ago

Baby Yoda

Everyone Ruined Star Wars

Rian Johnson ruined Star Wars

JJ Abrams ruined Star Wars

Chris Terrio ruined Star Wars

Kathleen Kennedy ruined Star Wars

The Disney machine ruined Star Wars

George Lucas ruined Star Wars

Star Wars ruined the internet

Star Wars ruined pop culture

Maybe Star Wars was always bad?

Every writer on Tumblr: “I would combust out of love if someone ever drew fanart of my fic!!”
Me: “oh man I wanna draw this scene BUT THEY WOULD PROBABLY HATE IT AND HATE ME FOR THE NERVE”

Dear artists.

We, the writers, will accept any of your fan arts.

We don’t care if it looks like shit to you, or you think your art skills are not good enough.

We will love any fan art, because it’s the most beautiful way to say “I love what you write”.

Writers and artists are supposed to be a part of a naturally symbiotic relationship. Please, PLEASE do not second-guess your place in that relationship. Drawing apart isolates us and crimps everyone’s style.

If anyone else needs information about voting rights in their state:

State Laws on Voting Rights/Time Off to Vote - Workplace Fairness

And just an FYI: most states require you to let your employer know that you’ll be taking time off to vote the day before you plan on doing it

jedifighterpilot2727:

So I told one of my managers yesterday that I would be needing time of work this Tuesday to go and vote because I didn’t realize I was scheduled for a long shift and won’t be off before the polls close.

She then proceeds to ask me why I couldn’t early vote.

I tell her that I guess I could have but I didn’t and the option was now closed and my next and last chance is Tuesday.

Cue her giving me a hard time for not early voting.

I politely tell her that I didn’t so I’ll be requiring time off on Tuesday.

Her response?

“I mean we’ll try to get you out.”

Umm no.

I say - “Legally the law requires that you allow me time off work to go vote.”

Her response?

“Yes, I mean legally it does.”

Yes bitch, legally! As in the law! As in it is my right!

So whatever, I leave her office with a bad taste in my mouth and run into a coworker (who’s worked there as long as I’ve been alive), and I tell her about what happened.

She goes OFF, tells me I better make sure they let me go vote Tuesday and that if they try to fight me on it to tell them to look in their files for the law that she printed off for them years ago stating my right to do so.

So she leaves and I feel a bit better but just for shits and giggles I decide to look up the law for Tennessee voting rights (I knew it was a law that they have to let you off but I didn’t know the exact parameters.)

You know what Tennessee law says?

Up to three hours PAID time to go vote, (and my dumb ass was planning on clocking out.)

You best believe that if someone tries to argue with me Tuesday I’ll be slapping down a copy of that law and my ACLU membership card, I’m pretty sure they don’t want to be hearing from those lawyers.

No but seriously. Normalize finding love in your 40’s. Normalize discovering and chasing new dreams in your 30’s. Normalize finding yourself and your purpose in your 50’s. Life doesn’t end at 25. Let’s stop acting like it does.

Is that person actually smart? or do they just make you feel like you were ignorant and now you’re intimidated to ask about your previous assertions? Is that person revealing a whole new realm of discourse you weren’t privy to, or are they reaching for out-of-pocket reasons to critique things? Are you agreeing with them because you know they’re right, or are you agreeing with them because they are confident about their assertions? Does this person have good taste and enjoy mocking things they deem worthless, or are they a cynical ass that knows no joy? Do they actually believe this or are they being contrarian for attention?

The answer varies. Ask these questions to yourself frequently.

mansplaining

This post was actually about raising awareness of common lapses in critical thinking that happen when you are impressionable and interact with a community online that lives in a bubble. My experience is with one specific “revolt against the modern world” type ideology that enforces or is lenient to varying forms of oppressive or regressive behavior.

In “Words in uniform: A Propaganda Reader”, a book containing excerpts of propaganda and various essays on the topic, the author/editor Nick Aaron Ford points out that a very large sample of political propaganda pieces are repeated variations on association games. (Please note here that “propaganda” in general is a neutral term, but what I’m about to describe is particularly bad.) What that means is effective propaganda doesn’t make arguments. Effective propaganda merely trains you to associate good or bad emotions with a person, a place, or a thing. This is done by story, I.e. arguments from disgust, and/or explicit labeling, like the way Trump comes up with adjectives or titles for people and reuses them, i.e. “nasty woman Hillary Clinton”, “pathetic”, etc. It’s particularly effective and you can see how well it works, even sometimes completely dehumanizing others once the association hits critical mass in terms of people who have heard it.

One of the reasons this works is that if you are listening to a person you trust, you take in their opinion and it’s now associated with this idea that goes along with it. You will repeat the opinion yourself, probably. And we know from the few decades of psychological research we have that people tend to do things instinctively first and justify them after. So if you’re not careful, a baseless value judgement on your part or careless dismissal can develop into full-blown arguments (of varying merit) as they jump from person to person. It happens to me. It happens to all of us.

I’m digging a little deeper into the idea here because I want you to understand that you have inadvertently done the things that this post is guarding against. You associated another concept, a sterotype of a negative thing that men can do, into a discussion about staying impervious to association games on the internet. And it was funny too, for a second.

You are succeptible to these association games and you did not stop this one from happening either. Make sure you cherish compassion and avoid dehumanization and cruelty, even if it’s an ingroup activity that feels good. And I absolutely know it’s happening in your circles because you welcome TERFs, who reinforce regressive gender roles and oppress trans people in various unpleasant and occasionally even deadly ways. It’s got some significant similarities to the community that I was talking about. Be careful of these rabbit holes. They’ll make a monster out of you.

It makes me happy to think how much time this person put into making sure strangers were okay. Now it’d just be rude not to even try it, wouldn’t it.

Wow… this is so amazing. Thank you.
