Can we please stop making scary shark movies? Sharks are pure sweet babies that don’t deserve this slander. They just have bad eyesight. Don’t be mean to them.
YES YES YES THANK YOU 100 PERCENT BEHIND A CUTE SHARK MOVIE
friendly reminder this shark week that
- for every human killed by a shark 25 million sharks are killed by people
- when we swim we’re in THEIR habitat
- they don’t even like to eat us we’re too bony, when they do bite us they think we’re seals
- sharks have been around since prehistoric times and now they’re endangered animals because of us
-the media likes to portray sharks as deadly monsters bc they look scary but really we’re the ones killing them
Let Gryffindors be scared!
Let Slytherins give up!
Let Hufflepuffs put themselves first!
Let Ravenclaws get a bad grade!
We are not perfect!
We are human!
That is all.
Robert E. Lee himself refused to wear his confederate uniform after the confederacy’s defeat in the American civil war. At his funeral he was not buried in it and no one in attendance was permitted to wear theirs either. He also declared that his confederate battle flag (what we now call “the confederate flag”) never be raised again and that it was a flag of treason.
So there’s your “southern heritage.”
Not Just Robert E Lee, which you can read here.
but Also the President of the South, Jefferson Davis felt the same way.
Basically, “Get the fuck over it.” We lost, we’re a part of this country, this flag signifies an old identity. Cut that shit out and move on.
So to play 11 questions you answer the questions somebody else tagged you in and then you create 11 of your own and tag 11 more people.
I was tagged by gondolin-elf.
1. If you could be an animal (real or mythical) what would you be? - I would most definitely be a shark, no, a MEGLADON. They are seriously the coolest things ever created, and I would totally show off if I was one.
2. What song is stuck in your head right now? - Supermassive Black Hole by Muse.
4. Favorite Marvel character and why? - I don’t really watch or read comics or know much about marvel so idk. Maybe Iron man? Is he marvel?
5.If you could meet one person who has died and talk to them for an hour, who would it be (doesn’t have to be famous)? - I would talk to my sister and ask her for advice.
6. What are impossible things you believe? - Sharks are better than cats. The submarine shark is real. Aliens are out there that are just as smart as humans.
7. Chocolate and mint or chocolate and peanut butter? - Mint and chocolate all the way!
8.What trait do you believe defines a person the most? - Hmm, that’s a hard one. I feel like, personally, it’s how open minded you are and how much you listen. If you listen to other people’s opinions you can see more than one solution to a problem, you become wiser. It will help you gain friends because you listen to them, and it can strengthen relationships. It can help you show you appreciate someone and value what they have to say. It might not be the most defining, but it is something that I am trying to let define me.
9. Human, elf, dwarf, or hobbit? - Elf
10.What connotation do you give the “spell” when you first hear it? - Magic and Harry Potter type of spells, like with a wand.
11. Which Hogwarts house do you think would produce the best champion for the Triwizard tournament? - Hufflepuff. I feel like everyone pictures them as so innocent, and I think that that would help them glean information from unsuspecting others to help them win. Also, the other competitors wouldn’t see this easy going Hufflepuff as a threat, so while the others are trying to get rid of each other the Hufflepuff could just waltz right through, under the radar (of course, if they were able enough to become the one chosen by the cup, then obviously there is some threat to that person).
Questions I am asking:
1. What is your home screen (on your phone or computer)?
2. Have you ever fallen in love with a fictional character? If so, who is it?
3. If you could make any fictional character come to life and be real, who would it be?
4. What is your view point on aliens?
5. If you could have any two (because one is too hard) superpowers you want, what would they be?
6. What is your favorite/least favorite subjects in school?
7. What type of learner are you (kinesthetic, auditory, visual)?
8. If you got $1 million in the mail, what would you do with it?
9. What is your favorite quote?
10. Are you an introvert or an extrovert?
11. Would you rather have a house under the sea or in the middle of space?
I am tagging these people to answer, but I would love everybody and anybody to answer them! And if you have already done this game, you don’t need to again (I tried not to tag people who have already done it).
fangirling-is-forever, ryuuusama69, starsofmirkwood, jaclcfrost
Frank can turn into any animal and tear your fucking face off instantly
Piper can kill a man just by telling him to die
Hazel can choke a person to death with their own jewelry while barely lifting a finger
Jason can stop a man’s heart with just a small flick of a finger
SO DON’T YOU TELL ME THAT ANY OF THE NEW CHARACTERS’ POWERS ARE LAME SO HELP ME GODS
You know when a fast angry song comes on that you know every word to and you’re in just the right mood that you’re eyes light up with the fire and angst of a thousand punk rockers and you just feel so alive
I was feeling inspired last night, so I decided to make this purely for fun.
To the moon and back: Cold, dark nights clutching thermos flasks of hot coffee. Machinery whirring as telescopes trace a star across the sky. Intricate, geometric drawings of the celestial sphere. A messy bun and a NASA t-shirt. Filling in the logbook while punk rock blares in the background to keep you energised and awake. Pictures of nebulae and galaxies everywhere, because pretty space pictures is half the fun. Annoyed huffs every time someone mentions their star sign.
Natural Philosopher: Long, intellectual debates in coffee shops about mathematics, physics, philosophy. Chalkboards covered with equations and calculations in a precise, curving handwriting. That Eureka moment while deep in thought, expressed only with a small smile and a scribbled proof on the back of a serviette. Chaotic desks in front of bookshelves groaning with old textbooks. Antique lab equipment as functional decor.
“Trust Me, I’m a Scientist”: Large computer screens running freshly-typed code. Neat lab books and PDFs of journal articles. The smell of whiteboard markers. Polished new equipment in a tangle of cables, hooked up to a digital oscilloscope. Exact amounts of chemicals in rows in metal shelves. Resting your feet up on the bench after a long day in the lab. The satisfying hum of your colleagues as they work on their experiments around you.
Science Expedition: Dirt under your nails and a loosely-bound collection of field notes. Plant clippings carefully taken to be analysed back in the lab. Soft fur on tough, wild animals. The bitter smoke from eco-friendly firewood while you roast marshmallows and listen to a supervisor’s witty stories. Free-handing diagrams while looking through a microscope. Sketching flowers and that gorgeous ocean view from your last field trip. Reading Darwin on the bus home but falling asleep on your lab partner’s shoulder out of sheer exhaustion after the first three pages.
Life is a Science: Scrolling past an anti-vax facebook post and resisting the urge to burn down the internet. Shiny dissection kits and the sharp smell of formaldehyde. Making time to work out and pack a healthy lunch because your mind is sharpest when your body is well. Debunking the latest superfood fad with peer-reviewed journal articles. Making friends with some of the nicer med school kids in anatomy class. Colour-coded, neatly labelled diagrams and a thousand different terms memorised. Getting a double-helix DNA sculpture for your desk.
What they show on TV isn’t real hacking: Rubbing your eyes after staring at a screen for five hours straight. Having a blank keyboard because all the letters are rubbed off already. Energy drinks in strange colours at strange hours. Being fluent in four different coding languages. Circuit boards and printouts. Ones and zeroes. Running jokes about turning everything off and on again. Rage-quitting when you realise you forgot a comma or a colon somewhere. Black screens with brightly coloured lines. The comforting click-click of fingertips tapping keys. Applying to intern at Google every three months because maybe they’ll take you this time. Writing a piece of code to do something simple just because.
