these are colorblind glasses. im about to take a walk around the neighborhood and experience colors like normal people. wish me luck, updates to come.
the trees. holy shit the trees. theyre different colors. like, a million different colors
grass….. it looks so soft… so green…
after laying in the grass for about an hour staring at the autumn leaves and laughing at how blue the sky is, i have some insight to share:
why the fuck do you people buy red cars like i had no idea how bright and obnoxious they looked
there are BERRIES on the trees. like bright red. id never noticed them because they blended in. a new problem has arisen now: how the fuck do you people keep yourselves from trying to eat them they’re so tempting looking
the fallen leaves are so beautiful and colorful and you all are heathens for stepping on them just to hear the crunchy sound they make
rainbows. let me tell you about rainbows. i see rainbows as various shades of brown and yellow, plus some blue. vaguely purple.
a few days ago, i saw a rainbow in these glasses. it had just finished raining and then the sun came out, and my friend and i scrambled out the door.
i saw green. red. orange. real, actual violet.
i cried. i cried so hard. i saw every color – something i never thought would happen in my life. imagine living your life without knowing something so beautiful exists, and all of a sudden it appears before your eyes. theres no way to prepare for it. the rainbow only lasted for five minutes before it disappeared, but every with second i stood there i became more amazed at how beautiful this world actually is, i just had no idea.
This is so pure
This gave me chills. So pure

Wait, so… does -copter come *from* helicopter?
Yep! This is called rebracketing. Another famous example would be “-burger”: the original food item is named after the German city, [Hamburg]+[er], but got semantically reinterpreted as [ham]+[burger]. Now it’s used as a suffix indicating a type of sandwich.
I love etymology!!!!!
he’s not ugly he’s handsome

This motherfucker survives a lightning strike and you have the gull to call them ugly?? If mother nature cant kill them what chance do you have when this mofo comes after you?!

((You call that ugly? It’s just a back scar!))
Things I need in life and am willing to write myself to make it happen:
A modern adaptation of Dracula where everything is the same but Jonathan harker is a woman
Like cute nerdy recent law school grad Joanna Harker and her equally nerdy English teacher fiancee Mina and she gets her first job at a law firm and its sorting out some real estate paperwork for a foreign aristocrat and she’s very excited to be trusted with such an important task and she films Mina cute video diaries from her phone as she travels whenever the signals to weak to call her and then dracula’s castle is a deadzone (bc of supernatural bs or just cuz it’s the middle of nowhere) so she can only send out super censored letters and but she’s still filming and taking photos and her last video before she escapes is her saying goodbye to Mina because the phone is going to die and then it plays out like it does in the novel
And listen it would be so good and we’d get happy ever after vampire killing lesbians what more do you want
#and
I think it takes away a lot of the gross ‘sex is inherently evil and
predatory’ readings of the original text that ppl are so fond of #by instead presenting the count as a figure of toxic masculinity #also I really just want vampire hunting lesbian nerds who pledge to follow each other into hell but get a happy ending #and Jonathan/Mina is at the core a story of survival and recovery from abuse and finding happiness despite trauma #and I think that’s the kind of story gay people are so very often deprived of #so yeah I want this #also I would ideally cast angel coulby as Mina because she would be perfect #and maybe Ellen page as Joanna #so picture that please #also!
it would further cement drac as a villain because he’s trying to tear
these women apart and there’s a lot to be explored in terms of #the violence wlw face from straight men #without killing any of them off #like suddenly drac trying to turn Mina takes on a whole other level of horrifying #instead of being romanticized like so many male directors are fond of doing

Yesterday Childish Gambino aka Donald Glover released a music video for his new song, “This Is America.”
The internet was fast to highlight the many layers and multiple meanings behind the 4-minute video.
I just want people to remember to give credit to the director Japanese filmmaker Hiro Murai.

This image was taken at the Chinese National Gymnastics Training Centre in Beijing back in November 2009, after training had finished for the day. Some of the gymnasts featured will be competing in the upcoming London Olympics. What makes it stand out is that it was captured all in one take.
I first gave the girls a picture of the poses I wanted and each girl chose one. Next, I got them framed up and then set up the camera. It only took about ten minutes and three takes and we were done. The girls were so accurate in terms of their timing when performing their moves, that the process of coordinating everyone and ensuring no one overlapped was amazingly straight-forward. – Adam Pretty
