does anyone remember the barefoot bandit?

Is that like the Scranton Strangler?

not quite. he was a really big deal for a while in the US and then like, everyone forgot about him? hes like a living action novel protag tho.

he ran away from home at age 7, lived in the woods for years, broke into vacation homes to steal water, got caught at age 13 and was going to do 3 years but escaped, committed over 100 more robberies (at first stealing only necessities, but then moving on to laptops and tech) 

started breaking into houses to steal car keys, taught himself to drive, drove far away from where he stole the car and then dumped it? started learning how to fly planes from info-dvds and books, then stole fucking planes??? he fucking flew to the Bahamas, and crashed?

the cops only caught him by shooting the engine on his stolen speedboat that he was using to escape?

i think he took a deal where fox bought the rights to make a movie out of his story, and the money went to victims?

he never hurt anyone but he lived from age 7-19 as a fucking living action movie

and then somehow, everyone fucking forgot about him.

i dont know man im going fucking nuts

I DIDNT MENTION THAT SOMEWHERE ALONG THE WAY HE FUCKING STOPPED AND DONATED $100 TO AN ANIMAL SHELTER??????????????????????????????

“He also signed his crime scenes — drawing footprint outlines with chalk and adding a sarcastic goodbye, “Cya!“ “ X

‘“Colt vividly recalls there being literally no food in the house for most of the month, every month. He began breaking into neighbors’ home during late elementary school, raiding their refrigerators,” says the report.

It was the animals around his home that gave solace to the youth.

“Pam kept chickens and Colt named each one and knew their personalities,” says the report.

Harris-Moore once left $100 and a note outside a veterinary clinic during his crime spree.

Says the report: “Colt loved animals, stating, ‘All my childhood memories of our animals are good ones. We had dogs, goats, pigs, cats and even the occasional baby bird that fall out of its nest in the spring.’“ X

this wasnt even meant to get popular lmao i just wanted to know if anyone remembered my son

I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING. D:

Pink took Pearl’s hands, crossed them one over the other, and said, “Let’s never speak of this again.” After this, Pearl was literally incapable of talking about what she did.

In The Answer, Rose took Garnet’s hands, crossed them one over the other, and told her, “No more questions.”

And now Garnet “can’t” ask questions.

I just want to point out that in the podcast they discussed one of the rules in the show bible being that Garnet can’t ask questions. The writers are not allowed to write garnet asking a question ever. The explanation was that they do this in order to keep her sounding decisive, which makes sense in keeping with her future vision and confident attitude. I literally have not thought about this scene since the episode aired and now I’m screaming because listen

Is this a cute nod to their writing strategy? OR is their decision to make this characterization rule alluding to a much much darker thing that they haven’t been telling us?

She doesn’t! Neither does your son! Or you for that matter!   It’s pretty disheartening to see how many commenters don’t get this. 

Holy shit yes. Agree. Thank you Girl Scouts.

this is a brilliant small step towards encouraging agency in girls which is absolutely critical for setting boundaries

concept: instead of hedwig, Harry goes into the pet store and this little snake in the back of the store talks to him, obviously gets his attention more than the other animals, and harry feels sorry for it so he takes it home. Then the snake helps Harry throughout his years at hogwarts as harry carries it wrapped around his hand all like “pssssst, haaarryyy, the dark lord isss coming sss” or just petty shit like “haaaarrryy, now is the time, assskkk out cho chaaannngg”

The snake getting really agitated in second year and Harry like ‘Aw, what’s wrong little friend?’

And snake’s like ‘Nah don’t worry it’s cool, it’s just that big fuck-off snake in the pipes that keeps making you think you’re hearing things—it’s like, ten thousand foot long, and I’m a corn snake, so you know. Bit intimidating.’

Third year he eats Scabbers and saves them all a lot of time

once on halloween in high school i decided that i would give myself a treat and “forget” my gym uniform and therefore lose participation credit for the day because you cant participate without the uniform. and the teacher was like, “if you’re in costume you don’t lose credit today because halloween,” and was listing off students who were visibly in costume who would get basically free credit, and she said my name much to my surprise and i realized that. she had never seen me in my regular clothes more than once or twice a couple months previously. she thought i was in costume. she had no idea i was just super fuckin goth.

I mean even the raw sentiment of giving yourself a gift of no gym class on Halloween is goth enough in itself

“Hades is a bottom” is not the hot take I was expecting to see on my dash today, but I think it’s the one I needed

honestly the idea that this Dumbledore

was thirsting after this Grindelwald

is just too big a stretch for my suspension of disbelief. Magic, unicorns, childhood trauma manifesting as a physical representation of destruction- that’s all cool.

But don’t try to make me believe that Jude Dumbledore Law wanted to grind on Coleslaw Head up there.

I mean, would you rather have that this mayonnaise vampire or would you rather have 

him?

i mean, the dewy eyes, the salt and pepper, the slight five o clock shadow, the square jaw, the perfectly manicured eyebrows… and he doesn’t look like he’s going to die at any moment

if i looked like my mustache attended KKK rallies, i’d probably transfigure myself to look like Colin Farrell too

It’s true and you should say it

clint eastwood by the gorillaz was the first song ever made

when he says “finally someone let me out of my bag” its a metaphor for music being created and humanity finally having a brand new way to express themselves via throat sounds (their bag)

Y’all joke about it, but let me tell you a story: See, back in ‘94 (yeah, you youngins), our sociology teacher mentioned that today was the 25th anniversary of Sesame Street. And he proceeded to tell a story.

See, he was in kindergarten when Sesame Street first aired, and he saw the first episode, live, with his classmates. He described the experience of seeing this for the first time as incredible. The entire class loved it.

The next day, however, the teacher announced that they could no longer show it, due to some people upset that it showed interracial friendships, of kids of different ethnicities playing together. Keep in mind that this show was only two years after laws banning interracial marriages were overturned.

So yeah. They’ve been doing the right thing before many of us here were even alive.

They also handled death better than pretty much any show ever. I remember when Mr Hooper died. Well, really the actor playing him died. They could have written around it or ignored it, but they didn’t. They did a whole show about death and grief, and it was moving and completely perfect. And it pissed people off because it was a kids show and I guess some people think kid shows should be happy all the time. Sesame street is the best show. I would have said so at 5, and I still say so as a childfree 35 year old.

Children’s media should respect the intelligence of their audience and Sesame Street won’t flinch from that.

This is all so true, which makes it even worse that new episodes of Sesame Street are effectively behind a 6 month paywall.
