I’m sure I’d feel the same way if I was a skinny white girl with blue eyes and blonde hair

this girl posted a picture featuring her cystic acne uncovered, something that’s extremely stigmatized, in order to make a statement and spread positivity.

that’s it. that’s all she did.

she didn’t say she was the face of people with acne or act like she has it harder than other people. she just shared a feature that i’m sure she’s been shamed for and has struggled to love.

she’s literally 17-years-old and you’re 27. stop being a dick to kids when they haven’t done anything wrong.

2018 has lasted four years yet october lasted a week and november has disengaged from linear time entirely

#january-march was 4 years ago // april was normal i think // may was a week ago // june 1st was a year ago#summer in general was the vague concept of exsistence that lasted anywhere between 13-18 weeks#october was at least a week and a half // November?? tried her best but sister only lasted two days this year#today is already yesterday#2018#edit: i completely forgot september existed which honestly says a lot (via @steebucks)

Rape is the only crime on the books for which arguing that the temptation to commit it was too clear and obvious to resist is treated as a defence. For every other crime, we call that a confession.

I’ve gotten more angry asks about this post than I have actual reblogs.

I literally put my coffee down, stared at the screen and said “Holy shit…”

Fuck.

this is still my favorite post ever

Hot take: There are legitimate criticisms that can be made about Fortnite’s pay to win/manipulative microtransaction style system but those are the fault of the game producers and not the people who play it and if you actively bully and mock children for enjoying something you’re pretty much just an asshole.

A lil bit of memeing, lmao’ing and inevitable second hand embarrassment=/=actually mercilessly mocking and bullying actual children for falling bait, hook, and sinker into a game made to attract young people.

I’m all for pyrocynical level jokes about how the game inept, annoying, a cash grab and a fade that will be forgotten the next year, but like, leave children alone for real, yeah it’s annoying and cringy, but goddamn let the kids actually enjoy themselves and probably help them understand they should enjoy the game for what it is and not spend mountains of money into it.

DO THAT CHALLENGE.

Exactly. Like I’m all for calling out stupid bullshit like YouTubers offering their gullible followers vbucks for likes and subs and that shit but I’ve seen people literally attack little ass kids or talk about how much they “hate this generation“ because they saw an eight-year-old flossing. Lighten the fuck up. I bet you remember vividly the first time in adult made you feel shitty for the things you enjoyed, Pokémon, Animal Crossing, whatever. Remember how crap that was? Tell me how you’re any better than annoying ass boomers who constantly talk shit about “millennials” and shit on their hobbies? Children have just a few years to actually enjoy life before they get crushed with a million responsibilities. Don’t suck all the enjoyment out of something harmless just because you’re a bitter old shit.

Eddie Redmayne concedes that he gave “a pretty bad performance” in Jupiter Ascending

“My character had had his larynx ripped out by this wolf man, and so I made the slightly bold choice—which I thought was right—of talking like this,” Redmayne says, putting on the breathy, choked affectation he uses throughout the film. He adds that at the time he thought the voice suited the costume and elaborate sci-fi world of the film, but in retrospect can see that it may have been a bit much. “I won a prize for it for the worst performance of the year,” Redmayne adds, referring to his 2016 Razzie award for Worst Supporting Actor. “So, yeah, it was a pretty bad performance by all accounts.”

Eddie, sweetie – you’re breaking my heart. You’ve got to ignore the basics. You’ve got to know that you gave a tremendously OTT and dialled up performance in a tremendously OTT and dialled up film (which I continue to love from the depths of my being). You gave no fucks and threw yourself into it, and because of that people love your performance. I can confidently guarantee that you gave the best performance as a vocally impaired intergalactic overlord with monumental mother issues and stomping lizard servants ever committed to film. Own it!

okay but we’re ignoring the most important part of this interview

THE ENTITLED WHOSE THROAT CAINE RIPPED OUT WAS BALEM THE WHOLE TIME

LONGTIME CONSPIRACY THEORY #CONFIRMED FUCK YEAH

D-Did they ever say in the movie that Redmayne’s character had had his throat ripped out in the backstory?

Cause I feel like that voice/performance immediately becomes less bizarre once you fill in that particular detail.

okay so you’ve unlocked one of my top five special interests just be aware

so jupiter ascending actually goes hard on the infodumping (which is why I get really annoyed by criticism that it’s hard to follow – if anything, the criticism should be that too much is explained and not enough is left to the audience), but there is one thing that’s never fully resolved (but it’s not plot relevant so it’s not the biggest deal)

anyway, this is what we know about caine:

  • he was born genetically defective and was sold to the Skyjackers (like, Space Air Force? with rocket boots and angel wings?) by his creator for cheap
  • he managed to rise to be a great Skyjacker anyway, despite his genetic deficiency
  • ~something~ happened where he ripped the throat out of an Entitled. WHY he did it or WHO the Entitled was is never explained in canon.
  • he himself has no idea why he randomly went berserk and tried to kill someone, but everyone blamed it on his genetic defects and he believes them
  • his belief in his own inferiority and inherently violent nature is why he tries to avoid a relationship with jupiter. this is the context for the “I have more in common with a dog than I do with you”/ “I love dogs, I’ve always loved dogs” scene and THAT’S WHY IT ACTUALLY MAKES SENSE IN THE TEXT, FOLKS
    • also there’s that whole romantic scene after jupiter becomes an entitled where she’s like “so I’m an entitled now, does that mean you want to bite me?” and caine’s like “uhhh no? ….actually maybe” and she’s like “go ahead 😉 😉 ;)”
  • for this he was stripped of his angel wings and exiled to a hostile prison colony planet until the events of the movie

so the fan theory for a long time was that balem was the entitled who caine attacked, and there’s an extension of that fan theory where one of his siblings – either kalique or titus, probably kalique because she’s way smarter – somehow mind-controlled or otherwise forced caine to attack balem as an assassination attempt, which is why he doesn’t remember why he did it

but ultimately it doesn’t actually matter to the plot? so it’s not a bad thing that it’s never resolved. but FAN THEORY #CONFIRMED.
