THE FACT THIS IS A REAL LINE FROM A DOCUMENTARY IS SENDING ME

naruto was insane. ’until that day, save your hatred, and then you can throw all of it right at me. i am the only one who can handle all that hate. do you understand? i’m the only one who can fulfill that duty, so i’ll bear the burden of your hatred and die with you’ is one of the most insane quotes from anything ever and it is from naruto. fucking naruto

every person can feel freddie’s presence in their souls when they sing MAMAAAAAA UUHHHH, I DONT WANNA DIE, I SOMETIMES I WISH I’VE NEVER BEEN BORN AT ALL with all the air in their lungs i’m not joking

it’s fucking crazy to think about the amount of people who have sung bohemian rhapsody? like it’s such a unifying song, by nature of the fact that so many people know it. it holds so many good memories for me and other people. it’s a song you scream in the car with your friends while you drive around your boring hometown, it’s a song you drunkenly sing with your arm around your best friend, or a song you sing along to with strangers when it’s on in public. it’s bittersweet to think about freddie’s legacy carrying on like that through his masterpiece. freddie carries on because he’s a part of so many people’s good memories and bohemian rhapsody is a huge part of that.

Reblog if you have sung bohemian rhapsody with your friends

every time i see this post i’m reminded of the video of 65,000 people singing bohemian rhapsody in near-perfect harmony

like, what other song can make that claim?

Some of the highlights of that video include:

Only days before my state went into lockdown, “Bohemian Rhapsody” came on in the restaurant kitchen I’d just been hired at and, no shit, every single worker in that little diner started singing along. Me (the only queer afaik), the manager, all the other kitchen workers, the dishwasher up front, the two people on the counter, all but two of the men over 30. Just belting out Freddie Mercury at the top of their lungs. And you can bet when “sometimes I wish I’d never been born at all” came around, we every single one of us ramped up the intensity and basically made sure Freddie could hear us in the afterlife.

Stop putting difficulty levels on areas and quests in video games. It's a bad habit. Breaks immersion and ruins the exploration. Let me walk into a cave and get my tits blown off by a fucking behemoth and I will learn my lesson to come back later. Or not! Maybe I'm feeling cocky. I want to feel like I can go anywhere in the world and it's dynamic and so every area has different challenges and LET ME DISCOVER THAT ON MY OWN!!! This is what sets Skyrim apart from most fantasy open worlds imo.

OMG That is so cute!!

Also the reason that the cat did this is actually because they are mirroring their owner. If their owner treats the thing (or in this case book) with respect and has made it very clear with their actions that the thing is important the cat will take notice and mirror this behavior!

Great addition! However, this is actually because the cat is Muslim.

If my cat respected things I do he would sit on my laptop until it blue screens. This cat is Muslim.

i think kishimoto just really bit off more than he could chew lol. he kept introducing concepts he wasnt equipped to handle - like, people aren’t looking at dbz and asking why goku is a child soldier or whatever, because dbz encourages some suspension of disbelief. naruto discusses the concept of child soldiers and children used as tools from the first arc to the last arc, explicitly. it introduces the “will of fire” as a philosophy, and later reveals the figure we see touting said philosophy signed off on a genocide. of course, the characters who question the themes of the series are still positioned antagonistically, and resemble terrorists more than freedom fighters, their solutions are always too extreme to be functional because it’s the only way naruto can be remotely believable as a messiah. he’s only going to be as politically astute as kishi is, and kishi was so stressed out by the pain arc he was losing sleep. the words ‘reparations’ ‘peace summit’ ‘economic redistribution’ do not exist in his vocabulary. and the character he’s created doesnt even think he has the solution, he actually tells minato he’s too stupid to come up with something and shouldn’t be expected to when the hokages couldnt. and he’s right, but…shounen.

It’s so disappointing because he’s bringing up so many good thoughts on what peace means and how mind control isn’t real peace and how the current system isn’t real peace, but he never actually takes that and does anything constructive with it. More importantly he doesn’t work out a solution that is real peace for them to strive towards. He thinks that he does, but it’s not a working solution if it doesn’t really work. He understands the idea of a conflict lasting for generations as an increasingly retaliatory thing, but he doesn’t come up with a way to stop it. He understands war has casualties and causes war orphans and damage far beyond the battlefield, but he doesn’t figure out how to fix it. It’s just so depressing.

I still can’t get over how Naruto is literally named after the little pink spiral thingies you get in ramen noodles

the western equivalent would be like naming your kid fucking Crouton

MY NAME IS CROUTON AND IM GONNA BE PRESIDENT SOMEDAY BELIEVE IT

Okay, but he’s not. They just happen to have the same name. Naruto is a whirlpool which is why the kamaboko in ramen also has that name (the spiral). His last name, Uzumaki, also translates to whirlpool/maelstrom. You should be teasing him that his name is Whirlpool Whirlpool.

moon moon crouton 

Incorrect! He is named after a character written in a book by Jiraya, his father’s master, and THAT character is named after the spiral fishcake. As a note, the author’s response to finding out that his student was naming an actual child that was basically ‘are you fucking stupid? That’s a fishcake’.
