all pedophiles should die and theres literally no downside to them all dropping dead
Writing about a child rapist did not make Vladimir Nabokov a child rapist.
Writing about an authoritarian theocracy did not make Margaret Atwood an authoritarian theocrat.
Writing about adultery did not make Leo Tolstoy an adulterer.
Writing about a ghost did not make Toni Morrison a ghost.
Writing about a murderer did not make Fyodor Dostoevsky a murderer.
Writing about a teenage addict did not make Isabel Allende a teenage addict.
Writing about dragons and ice zombies did not make George R.R. Martin either of those things.
Writing about rich heiresses, socially awkward bachelors, and cougar widows did not make Jane Austen any of those things.
Writing about people who can control earthquakes did not make N.K. Jemisin able to control earthquakes.
Writing about your favorite characters and/or ships in situations that you choose does not make you a bad person.
It’s a shame that in this day and age these things need to be said.
The scene where Steve, Nat and Scott drop in on Tony at his lake house leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.
5 years pass. During those 5 years, ostensibly, none of the Avengers bother to visit Tony, not once. It’s not until they are presented with a problem that only Tony can (potentially) solve, not until they NEED something from Tony that they decide to intrude upon his life stop by.
Tony is clearly unpleasantly surprised by their visit, which means there was no warning, no phone call, no nothing. They just … needed something form him, so they came over. Because that’s what they do.
THEN they all gang up on Tony with their brilliant “(not)-Back to the Future” idea that Tony just has to, HAS to accept…
leaving him to verbally defend himself against all of his teammates much like he did a few years back in AoU
And when Tony tells them he can’t risk it, can’t throw away his one chance at happiness on an extremely uncertain, implausible gamble. When Tony, whom they haven’t bothered to check on ONCE during these 5 years, knowing that he went through, at the very least, as much trauma as they did (it was more, but who’s counting), had graciously offered them to stay and spend some time with his family, because he f&cking MISSED them
They turn around and walk away - the ultimate spit-in-your-face move. Because he didn’t give them what they wanted, and therefore there was nothing for them to do there. Tony himself didn’t matter - the only thing that mattered was what he could give them. And since he refused to do it, they moved on to the next best thing - Bruce.
I wish… I WISH the writers for the ensemble films bothered to read the comics (or at least watch the AA cartoons) and adopt the team dynamic from them, where they all actually genuinely cared for each other. Because this? is not a team.

Can we just… normalize teens loving their parents? Like obviously you’re not obligated to if your parents are shitty, but damn, I love my mom. She’s there for me all the time and sure we have rough patches but honestly she’s the greatest. Like. We need teens to know that they don’t have to hate their parents just cause.

My source is a Facebook post that’s being circulated by representatives from the Cast Members’ Union.
On May 1, 2018 – for the first time since September 2017 – the Company entered the room to negotiate with the Union. They’ve put two options on the table.
Option 1: the exact same offer that 93% of voting Cast Members rejected back in December 2017.
Each Cast Member would receive the thousand dollar tax cut bonus that the Company already promised them, but only if they settle an unsustainably low raise (fifty cents per hour).
Option 2: the Cast Members will receive a more sustainable raise, but at the cost of renegotiating a bunch of really important Union rights.
This option is spelled out in a thirty-eight page proposal. It has a few ups, but a lot more downs.
• By 2021, the lowliest Cast Members would be paid fifteen dollars an hour. Higher-paid Cast Members would either get a seventy-five cent raise or a three percent raise, whichever is higher.
• All Cast Members would finally receive the bonus that the Company promised them.
• In the event of a massive closure – like during a hurricane – the Company would pay Cast Members for up to five days of missed shifts. (Currently, the Company isn’t contractually obligated to pay them anything.)
THAT SAID
• The Company would no longer have to pay overtime rates to Cast Members who are scheduled for fewer than five days a week. Tough luck, part-timers!
• The Company would get rid of sixth-day overtime and seventh-day doubletime altogether. So if you work for that brutal and exhausting amount of time, you would be rewarded with regular pay.
• The Company would stop the Union from having a say in how Cast Members are scheduled altogether.
• The Company would change transfer guidelines. A Cast Member would have to wait a full year before transfering to a new location. (Currently it’s six months.)
• The Company would only allow Cast Members to transfer to a new location if they have two attendance entries and no reprimands. (Currently it’s five attendance entries and one reprimand.)
• The Company would be allowed to transfer Union Shop Stewards to other locations upon whim. The Shop Steward wouldn’t have a say in the matter.
• The Company would no longer have to reimburse a Cast Member who takes a leave of absence due to civil or criminal charges, even if the Cast Member is found Not Guilty. (It shouldn’t matter either way, but still.)
• The Company would no longer be required to have a Shop Steward present when Management calls a Cast Member in for disciplinary reasons.
• Currently, Cast Members can clock in fifteen minutes before their shift starts and clock out fifteen minutes after it ends. The Company would reduce that to five minutes, before and after.
• If a Cast Member has a grievance that can’t be resolved by an Area Manager or a General Manager, the Company would no longer have to send a higher-ranking representative to resolve it. The grievance would just go unresolved.
• The Company would only provide Holiday Pay to Cast Members who have worked the day before the holiday, the day of the holiday, AND the day after the holiday.
• The Company would place a cap on the number of hours of Vacation Time and Sick Time that a Cast Member can accrue. (Currently it’s based on the number of hours that the Cast Member works, but the Company wants to base it on the number of hours paid up to 1,800 hours.)
• The Company would no longer be required to have a Shop Steward present for Scheduling Bids and Vacation Bids.
• The Safety Committee is a forum where Cast Members can voice safety concerns in their work area to Management. The Labor/Management Committee is a forum where Shop Stewards can voice their concerns to Management.
The Company would combine these two Committees, and diminish the Union’s representation in them.
• The Company would now be allowed to subject Cast Members to random drug testing at any time, for any drug, without even notifying the Union first.
• The Company would no longer allow Cast Members to speak one-on-one with Union Representatives while on the clock. Not backstage. Not during a break. Nothing.
• The Company would no longer allow the Union to contact Cast Members directly at all. They’d have to do it via mail or solicitation letters.
• The Company would no longer allow the Union to contact Non-Union Cast Members at all.
• The Company would allows Cast Members to join the Union without paying monthly dues. This would de-fund the Union, which would basically kill it altogether.
• The Company wouldn’t be required to negotiate another contract with its Cast Members until 2022 (assuming the Cast Members still have a Union to advocate on their behalf).
TL;DR?
CAST MEMBERS: We want to be paid fifteen dollars an hour (which wasn’t even a living wage back in 2015), and we want the bonus you promised us.

I AM SORRY FOLLOWERS, I LOVE MY MOMMY
Will not risk.
sorry followers :(
my mom is 61 and her bf is a huge nerd and he’s teaching her to play magic the gathering and he had her watch avatar the last airbender with him and his ringtone is terra’s theme from final fantasy 6 and he paints pictures of sephiroth. my mom’s bf is nerdier than i’ll ever be.
and she does all these pinterest crafts and now she makes little bejeweled vials of healing potions for him and his buddies. my little geek heart can’t handle all this.
edit: just picture a 60-something woman with a VERY thick minnesotan accent saying “mike is having me watch the naruto”

Oh my god I was looking through my old flipnotes I use to make and this was the last one I made before I stopped. I remember how proud I was when I finished and I would watch this on loop forever. After watching this I had an idea to reanimate this but on computer instead of my 3DS. I’m lucky that it’s short but it’s still 83 frames. Welp time to sell my soul and sanity. Ignore my shitty art.
Of fucking course
What sick bastard doesn’t
Everyone, at one time or another, has been confronted with the moral dilemma of telling the truth to a friend or loved one. Are there caveats to the moral principle of honesty? Are there situations where lying is the right thing to do? In this video, one such dilemma is encountered and the Sanders Sides are all trying to get down to the bottom of what’s the truth on lying! This video is a DOOZY. Hope you enjoy!
He twirl
When he popped up, I couldn’t help but fall in love with this new side. They are just... amazing! He is now tied for my favourite side!
Also glad to see my Roman being on the stage!!! (He is the other side tied for my favourite)
P.S Am I the only one to think that deceit is sorta like bill cipher?!?!
Okay, this is the first rant I have ever done but I really wanted to get this off my chest. If you don’t like rants then I suggest not reading what’s under the cut but for those who do, here you go. Please don’t take offense to anything said here, I’m not trying to attack anyone I just really felt the need to share what I was feeling.
I’m sick and tired of all the prince hate in this community. It’s so sad to see that for so many of us here the other three can virtually “do no wrong” meanwhile barely anyone complains when negative things are said about Roman. None of the sides are perfect, they represent the human mind after all and they have lots of flaws. I love all four of them don’t get me wrong, but it’s a good thing to be able to admit a character you love isn’t perfect. That doesn’t mean I love them any less than someone who does think they’re perfect. Anyways back to the Roman thing, It upsets me that so many people dislike him but then get mad when stuff is said about the other three, why not treat them all equally? They are all equally flawed and all equally likable but yet Roman is stuck as the least favorite, and that’s just sad. When you call out Roman you should be allowed and able to call out Patton, Virgil, and Logan too. When you say good things about the sides you should be able to do the same for Roman. I’m not saying you have to like Roman if you don’t then that’s sad but no one can make you like him. It just seems like most everyone in this community holds the others to a higher caliber than him just because he has made mistakes. Sure he has some less than favorable qualities but surprise! So does Virgil, so does Patton and so does Logan. Why? Because they aren’t perfect. They are all representations of Thomas’ personality and thought process and here’s another shocker, Thomas isn’t perfect either. He has said this many times, he’s a human being with flaws just like everyone else. None of us are perfect but sometimes we like to believe people we’re a fan of are, which isn’t true ever. That’s something I really admire about him, that he doesn’t allow, or at least tries not to allow people to think he’s a perfect person who can do no wrong and put him up on this huge pedestal. That is something I think a lot of other people in the media should do, and it’s something we need to apply when thinking about the sides. They are made up characters but as I said they are very flawed. Don’t put any of them up on a pedestal and think they are perfect because once again they aren’t and never will be.
Let people criticize things the other sides do. If someone says something bad about Patton, Virgil or Logan, don’t get angry. Don’t attack them and don’t be passive aggressive and rude. Let people have different opinions. Just because someone doesn’t agree with you or think the same way as you doesn’t mean they deserve to be treated badly. You wouldn’t want them to treat you bad for not agreeing with them right?
People are always going to have different opinions, but we are a mostly very positive and loving community, so I know we can all live in peace with our opinions, or at the very least try to.
