– bear is a slur – the informative albeit condescending tone – “we can’t undermine other lgbt+ people for our own causes”, about a joke post, where someone jokingly proposed for (aro)ace people to change pronouns in songs to be absurd things like “chicken nuggets” or “bear” – “our own causes” – “CAUSES” – Bear is a Slur – the fact that i reblogged that post ages ago – BEAR IS A SLUR, – USED AGAINST GAY MEN – FOR DECADES
?????
I just?
How little do you have to know about gay culture, and how much do you have to hate them (bears), to think that Bear is a slur?
As far as the whole ask goes. Um, no. That’s not how any of this works. Go back and try again. Way back.
there’s very few things that drive me up the wall in fandom as much as this weird new assumption that fandom is primarily a space for younger people that older folks are only accepted into in a trial basis if they promise to centralize and accommodate younger fans, and further, anything else is creepy and predatory. IT’S OKAY FOR ADULTS TO PRODUCE CONTENT FOR OTHER ADULTS.
if I have to read “women in their 30s” used as an insult one more time I swear I’ll – step away from that user and just hang out with the other grownups who consistently create good content because I’m also an adult and too busy comparing car insurance to fight with teenagers on the internet, but goddAMMIT I’ll be annoyed
Yup, I’ll be over here where the well-written and well-researched stuff is, you go and read or write slashfic containing ass-hymens.
ass-what
I wish I was kidding.
I hope it was at least a crack fic…
No. It was horribly written wangst with one character written like a girl but not as a girl (Harry). And a big deal was made out of virginity, hence the butt-hymen. Apparently nobody in Hogwarts ever takes a dump. It was painfully obvious the author had never seen a penis IRL, or even experimentally put a finger up her butt for research purposes. Ahem.
And there were several fics like that. Several. The butt-hymen was an actual trend for a little while.
oh my god
I’m getting the weird desire to write a fic in which everyone in Hogwarts is wearing colostomy bags. Someone hand me the brain bleach, please.
No but seriously I love this statue. It represents everything about Confederate monuments, to me. It looks nothing like real life, it’s simultaneously cartoonish and incredibly unfortunate, and it was clearly made by somebody with more stubbornness than common sense. Also it’s ugly as shit.
This is that one on the highway outside of Nashville! I spent my childhood having to see that hideous thing every time we went to the airport or to see a show at TPAC
most Nashvillians have cherished, violent fantasies of destroying it, but it’s on private property and the owner is a gun hoarder as well as a racist. The city keeps asking the state if they can plant shrubs in front of it to block it from view. The state keeps refusing
It’s meant to be Nathan Bedford Forrest
And if someone tears it down, I think the mayor will give them the key to the city
Guys there is actually a german ripoff of Aladdin by this terrifying “animation company” (I use that term loosely) Dingo Pictures and I wanted to share Aladdin’s song b/c it is funky fresh
San Bernardino-based company Garner Holt Productions (GHP) took over all animatronic builds from Walt Disney Imagineering a few years back, according to The Disney Blog. Their latest figure is a super-expressive Abraham Lincoln bust, which they revealed at at a recent open house.
GHP describe their figure, which uses a proprietary silicone skin mask, as the “most advanced humanoid robotic head ever created.”
But the demo here launches me screaming straight into the uncanny valley.
The problem is that the face is so mobile and so expressive that it looks like Abe is having a seizure or worse… like human facial muscles were never intended to be used in these combinations, one after another, so rapidly.
Maybe in the hands of skilled animatronics programmers Abe can be toned down. I sure hope so, otherwise the Hall of Presidents will become horrifying instead of merely boring.
