today is the only day you can reblog this ever

I just keep thinking about this interaction, it’s been like… a few months. I still think about it.

billie joe armstrong is like…the definition of chaotic good. a prime example of this is the fact that one time at a green day concert this guy in the pit was harassing a young girl so billie stopped the show to help her. however, his way of doing so was to jump into the audience, dropkick the guy directly in the face, and then fight him in a crowd of screaming fans

This is missing the best part - when he saw the guy, he tried to be like “Dude, stop” and when the man didn’t stop pushing the girl around he screamed “Fine! You wanna fight? I’ll fucking fight you, then!” and leapt directly into the crowd

There’s a reason Green Day was my favourite band in high school, and Billie Joe Armstrong is it.

Always reblog bisexual chaotic goods

bi(g) dick energy

 love this guy. 

not to Discourse but I’m a cis man and my partner is an afab enby and if you call us a “straight couple” I will personally come to your house tie you to a chair and make you listen to a podcast about gender identity on endless repeat

this is specifically @ the people who saw us at pride together and saw them wearing a “THEY/THEM” button and still referred to them as my “girlfriend” you’re all cancelled thanks

it’s called respecting queer people juice

y'know the really amazing thing about the notes on this post - apart from just the sheer number of people who are, like, viscerally terrified of the existence of a person who isn’t cis - is how many of them are responding to things that aren’t here. specifically, you’ll notice I said nothing about my sexuality. I didn’t say I identified as non-het, or that I considered myself part of the LGBTQIA community. on the flip side, I also didn’t give you any reason to believe I’m not bi, or that I’ve never been in a relationship with a cis man. y'all know nothing about my sexuality from this post and you don’t need to and I’m not going to tell you about it now because! this post! was not! about me!

it was about respecting my partner’s identity. and the fact that they don’t get that respect from people in the exact community that they should be able to count on getting it from.

ie, you.

they are not het or cis, and no relationship they are in will ever be a “straight relationship” because they. are not. het. or. cis.

everyone in the notes gatekeeping me because I’m “not oppressed”? I never said I was. the person you’re really attacking and invalidating by shitting on this post is them, a pansexual nonbinary person who is unerasably queer.

huh. it’s almost as if the whole “we can’t let straight men use queerness to worm their way into our community” discourse is just an excuse to hate trans people, isn’t it.

Ant-Man and the Wasp Respond to IGN Comments

So you paid more than they did?

this whole thread is hilarious. they break down and admit to having daddy buy the house, and then dude admits that he never bought a realty record and that they told on themselves lmfao

it was in awe lmao

then the hygienist and assistant all came over to look too and they were like “wooooow” and my ass was sitting there like

oh my god i posted this and then went to work, and

story time

okay so to preface this, my hometown where i’m originally from is a really fucking weird place. like from the outside it seems like a normal suburban town, but once you’re there for awhile you get the feeling that’s something’s not…quite all together. a lot of people are really fucking weird there — so much so that that was a running joke in school growing up, that people in the town were just like that. everyone knew not to go out to the farm lands surrounding the town especially at night, we called it “the cuts” and people used to disappear out there all the time or get shot at by the especially weird people that would live out there. the news was and still is truly a thing of horror. every time i come back i’m regaled with even more stories of crazy shit that has happened there.

to put it in perspective we generally never had “normal crime” like robbery or anything like that when i lived there, though that did happen sometimes. the news stories were always like, “a kid was kidnapped by local residents and tortured in a house around the corner,” “a random person was chased down and shot for sport in a really nice neighborhood,” “someone was gored to death by a bull while out car shopping,” etc. (these are all real, btw). everyone does drugs and the whole town is located really close to a government site where they test nuclear weapons and chemicals and shit. this is how i grew up, in this bizarre environment.

i need to preface it this way so that you get that it’s weird. it’s a fucking weird place. i used to listen to the welcome to night vale podcast and make comparisons from it to my hometown, that’s how weird it is.

i only say this so you know that this town is where i got my orthodontics from.

all the kids in my town went to this one particular orthodontist. i also used to go to a dentist in town that a lot of people went to as well. i had a permanent retainer put on my bottom teeth after braces and no one had ever said anything to me about the model of retainer itself or it being weird type of retainer at all. i saw a ton of other people (mostly other kids that were my age at the time) that had the same type of retainer as me too so i never thought about it.

so i kept my retainer in — it’s never caused me problems and it keeps my teeth straight, why not?

however i went to a dentist for the first time in a metropolitan area now, and when he saw it in my mouth his literal first reaction was to say “uh can i ask you a question….what the hell is that”

LITERALLY the words that he said

which in hindsight makes almost too much sense. of course my town of all towns would put these weird unnecessary contraptions in kids’ mouths, and of course it happened so much that everyone just thought it was normal. that sounds exactly, to a T, like my hometown.

my permanent bottom retainer is apparently this prototype that is so rare that he’s literally never seen it before in his life, not in dental school, nowhere. it’s not that it’s an outdated type, it’s just rare as fuck. they were still staring at pictures of it on my chart in wonder when i left the office.

so just know somewhere out there, in a weird ass suburban town where they test nuclear weapons and a good portion of the residents go fucking nuts, there’s probably hundreds of people still walking around with this same contraption in their mouth that exists nowhere else in the world thinking, “yeah, that’s cool. that makes sense. let me go drink the definitely not-contaminated water now and never move away from here.”

This sounds like an X-files episode

Jack’s Broken Shoulder

So I was rewatching the Netflix Newsies recording and noticed something interesting about Jack: he’s right handed (as is Jeremy Jordan), but he doesn’t reflect that in his right shoulder. It shows through in lots of little ways.*

Whenever he’s gearing up for something, he rolls his right shoulder as if loosening it up in preparation. He does this a lot: in Carrying the Banner, when he’s just committed to the strike, right before the fight, twice when he’s being convinced to return, just after he scabs, when he asks what he and Kath are, while looking at Roosevelt, and three times in the final confrontation with Pulitzer. 

He carries weight with his left arm whenever he has the choice. Look at how he pulls up Crutchie, even though he has to take an extra second (while Crutchie is hanging!) to get over to that side. Both times the Delancey’s knock him down, he catches his weight on his left hand. JJor’s single cartwheel at the very end is also pivoted around his left hand. 

He also often prefers to gesture with his left hand, far more than Davey or Kath comparatively do. These are just four random moments I pulled out, but it’s present all throughout the show (particularly Santa Fe and STBI). 

I can only think of about 5-6 times in the entire musical when he raises his right arm above shoulder level, usually as part of a double-armed action or group choreography. Whenever he gets to choose which arm he uses to go high, he tends to pick his left. The punch he throws with his right hand in the fight is almost laughably easily blocked by Oscar and is in terrible form (a really wide swing, almost like he can’t forcefully bend at the shoulder). 

And again just after he’s been tossed out of the doors of The World. Les bounces right back up because kids are indestructible, but Jack and Davey lie there for a minute. Jack awkwardly pushes himself up with his left hand, gets pulled up by Albert, then presses down on his upper arm like it hurts more than the rest. 

So what if he was in the Refuge, trying to cheer up some of the smaller kids? It’s after dinner, just enough weak light streaming through the windows to shine off the tear tracks, and he starts sketching in the dust on the glass. Wildly unflattering caricatures of Snyder and the wardens, working out his anger and trying to make the kids laugh. And they do. Quietly at first, then louder and louder until the room is ringing with it, the first happy noise in the Refuge in months. And then the wardens bust in, drawn by the noise, see the drawings and decide to stop Jack from drawing them ever again.

Humerus fractures are tricky things, and it’d be no surprise if Jack didn’t heal quite right from a break, even years later. Maybe that’s why Crutchie has no problem telling Jack he “ain’t been walking so good,” despite the fact that he doesn’t want “anyone should see”, because for ~2 months, Jack was in the same boat. They probably sold together, with the crutch and the sling, milking ableism for all it was worth. And even though Jack can only know the smallest fraction of what Crutchie deals with every day, he has more experience than most of the boys. 

* obviously, some/most/all of this is due to blocking decisions and trying to stay open to the audience, but c’mon guys, let’s have some fun here. 

make me choose: @shitty-newsies-aus asked johnny simpson or jimmy campbell

Man who needs Jake anyway.

I can’t figure out how to realistically share all the sprites I did for the game? I did an awful lot and there are multiple expressions and etc, soooo here are a handful of my favorites for Dirk and Jake. :) 

OH MY GOD I ALMOST FORGOT ABOUT THIS GAME???????
