I really can’t believe I’ve been on this hell site for 8 years
Impart me in your wisdom of ancient times
one time there was a tumblr user with the url “pizza” and she would just comment on any text post about pizza saying “omg that’s me” and then we found out she had an entire tag dedicated to saying the n word

One of PETA’s major strategies is to utilize offensive PR campaigns to gain free advertising. By putting up racist, sexist, or simply horrific ad campaigns that are specifically designed to piss people off and go viral as a result, PETA generates a huge amount of brand recognition and gets featured time in the news cycle without spending a penny.
Consistently keeping people infuriated at their social media is also a great away for PETA to exhaust the public’s outrage and keep the spotlight off the legal / legislative / advocacy campaigns they’re working on that most people would find massively objectionable.
So while it’s cathartic to be mad at PETA about the shitty thing they said about Steve Irwin, keep in mind that every time you mention it, post about it, reblog or retweet it: you’re playing directly into their hands.
PETA wants you to be outraged and blow up their mentions. In fact, they’re counting on your anger to keep them trending. For the game they’re playing, any PR is good PR.
i love posts like that last one but realtalk fluency is a weird thing and different people have different ideas on what constitutes full fluency
for instance, my brother speaks russian pretty much fluently in terms of vocab and grammar, tho he still has a little bit of an english accent sometimes, he says. hes married to a native russian speaker who knows very little english. he lived in russia for about 6 years. the bbc russian correspondant said his russian is better than any other non-native speakers’ hes ever heard.
but he doesnt consider himself fluent because he doesnt like reading russian books and his brain gets tired v quickly when he tries ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
idk what the point of this post is. just. fluency is technically both reachable and unreachable. dont give up. youre doing a lot better than you might think.
languages are hard lmao
If you could instantly be granted fluency in 5 languages—not taking away your existing language proficiency in any way, solely a gain—what 5 would you choose?
ace: *trips slightly up the stairs on his way to meet sabo for lunch*
robin, luffy’s older friend he still isn’t 100% sure how he met but is none the less very pleasant and polite and completely unreadable: i warned you about the stairs bro

if ur an 8ft gerudo lady hmu
remember in botw how theres that one gerudo girl crying in the bar bc her bf dumped her for being “too tall”, and she cries like “whats that supposed to mean, im only 8 feet tall” like wtf im gonna find that dude and hes gonna catch these hands anyway if ur 8 feet tall DM me
They way she says “only” implies 8 feet is below average for Gerudo height.
In the Hyrule Historia, Ganondorf is stated to be 7’6’’. So with this in mind, we know that Ganondorf, the Demon King, the Prince Of Darkness, is very short for a Gerudo
Ganon turned evil because he was a manlet.
love watching straight people’s reaction to how we knew someone was gay because it’s always stupid things like “i asked her where she got that button up shirt and she said the men section of zara” or “she got into a heated debate about werewolves and only a gay person would be that passionate about werewolves” and straight people’s wack ‘he has a lisp’ gaydar cannot comprehend this level of secret language and just look at us like
if you’re not vaccinated you should NOT be allowed to travel. period.
it doesn’t make sense people are reintroducing countries to illnesses they haven’t experienced in years just because some affluent soccer moms think their stupid ass kid is gonna be the next einstein bc he’s never gotten a measles shot
Someone: “Why do you get so heated while discussing lore of stuff? And why is it so detailed? Why do you have several thousand words devoted to this shit?”

ace and sabo go to a convention when they’re 16 and sabo doesn’t really know what is going on but he knows enough to point at things and make appropriate jokes and luffy is DEVASTATED that they went without him so after bugging them for a full year they take him to the next con. ace actually half dresses up and sabo shows solidarity by dressing up as a pirate because he thinks conventions are just a place for adults to play dress up but then people keep asking him what series hes from and hes like ??? no im just a pirate. luffy has a fantastic time and all the cosplayers love him
who fucking litters. why do i ever see litter. who thinks that’s okay. who. who NEEDS to throw their fast food bag out the fucking window instead of waiting until they get somewhere with a trashcan. what kinda clown behavior. get fucked.
