Decided to put all the very good adventure boys together. :,,,,,,) I had to squeeze these out before the finale. I’m not ready for the Balance arc to end—it’s been a very rocky year and a half for me, but the show has been such a fun and safe mindspace to been in, and listening to it definitely made things easier to cope with. But the boys do deserve a happy ending, so I’ll just hang onto that for now.
So his guy has a new theory about why young people these days are ~so very entitled~: Harry Potter being Too Special And Good At Things made us think we could also have it all without working! Though he only describes in detail events from the first book, which arguably gives Harry the easiest time of it. So if he’s only read that one, that might explain the misunderstanding.
Good job, you have successfully described one of the differences between two stories! I think the argument that one is better than the other because of that needs a little more scrutiny, though. Not least because a large fraction of kids who grew up on Harry Potter probably also enjoyed LOTR.
someone: wow i can’t believe kesha’s actually good now!
me, externally: haha, yeah, her new stuff is incredible
me, internally: her stuff has ALWAYS been incredible. just because her old stuff was more party and dance music and used autotune and was marketed towards teenage girls doesn’t change the fact that her lyrics have always been clever, heartwarming, and just plain fun. even if her old music wasn’t personally your cup of tea, you can’t pretend that she hasn’t always been a talented musician with a great voice – y’all talk like she didn’t release stripped-down versions of her old music with no autotune years ago, PROVING her voice is amazing. animal, cannibal and warrior had so many bops on them, so many uplifting party songs, and from the very beginning, she has been subverting and satirizing the drunken party girl image her label built up for her. and let’s not even get into the fact that she has a genius level iq, and is an all-around great person and has always been outspoken about human rights, and is an inspiration for abuse survivors everywhere, and,
a good way for goyim to help combat antisemitism right now would be to remind those who exclude jewish people from the charlottesville conversation that jewish people are being explicitly targeted – in chants, in statements, in the adoption of nazi ideology.
Now that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and The White House have finalized new nondiscrimination provisions under Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act, it is more important than ever to know your rights and what to do if you face discrimination.
To better explain what these protections mean, Out2Enroll partnered with trans comic artist, Dylan Edwards, on a series of illustrated discrimination situations.
Voice actresses Shelby Rabara, Deedee Magno Hall, Michaela Dietz, and Jennifer Paz share stories about their auditions, working together in the booth, and what they love about #StevenUniverse!
Ah yes because posting on the internet in a manner that is not a proximate cause of a sexual action is a sexual action.
This might be the most ludicrous and overextended usage of the ‘slippery slope’ fallacy I have ever seen.
Idk about anyone else but I’m mostly just amused by the “legal liability” angle they’re taking. As a private company they have the right to let whoever they want on their site. If they just came out and said “no, we don’t like MAPs” that would be fine.
Nobody I’ve seen has tried to change writscrib’s mind (tho I’m sure some have and I just haven’t seen it), it’s mostly been people laughing at their poor understanding of law. Like… literally all you have to do is say “no, fuck off, we don’t like you” but you insist on making up some weird excuse and it’s fucking hilarious.
Plus they misinterpret the issue in a rather gross way. It’s wrong to have sex with kids not because kids said no, it’s because kids can’t consent. Or does @writscrib imply they can’t consent too?
This is for that person who sent me an ask earlier suggesting that I should discuss the legal liability side since that would be more appropriate!
Believe me: the people that are outraged really don’t care about the legal liability argument. Here’s your evidence for that.
As for the people in this chain: you’re all being blocked (if you aren’t already). Leave us alone. You had your answer. Be satisfied that Tumblr gives you a safe space and stop dragging this around.
What a mature response. Yeah, we will leave you alone, but who will sponsor your site? I don’t know who will want to be a part of a network that is run by people who can’t answer a simple question and threaten to block users instead (so far only threaten, since I clearly am not blocked). Maybe antis will want to join your site, but antis are mostly teens and don’t have money.
It is mature, and “doesn’t allow pedophiles to openly be pedophiles on the site” is hardly the site-killer that I think you guys believe.
I actually didn’t block you quite yet, but the rest are blocked.
To answer your question: The issue is that kids can’t consent, period, to an adult soliciting them. And the fact that the pedophiles and their sympathizers that refused to take a no continued to the point of needing to be blocked (none of the other faces here are unfamiliar) doesn’t bode well for their ability to take a no.
Finally: I think it’s really funny that your implication seems to be that we’ll sink financially if we don’t welcome pedophiles onto the site. I reassure you that pedophiles are not the driving force of finance online. Have a nice day.
Not a single person was killed or permanently injured by Occupy Wall Street, and that lasted weeks. Not a single person was killed or permenently injured at Standing Rock, except for those injured by the violent police, and that gathering lasted for months. The right-wing throw one big rally - where the ideology itself, never forget, is extremely and dangerously violent - and 19 people end up in the hospital, 1 person is dead. Never once more should you equate the right and left. Never once fucking more. We are all antifa, now.
