I’ve been saying for a while that Republicans are okay with the existence of billionaires because they have no concept of what a billion is.

This photo is proof. They’re completely unaware of the fact that there are 1,000 millions in a billion.

A quick message for y'all

You can’t be

Transphobic

And like

Metroid

Because

Samus

Is canonically a

Trans woman

And you can

Die mad about it

Sorry

Terfs and tranphobes

You can’t have her

Reblogging here because y'all nasties need to acknowledge this

As much as I love this idea and hc Samus as a trans lesbian myself the word used in this article might as well be the Japanese version of the English t-slur

Literally the screen cap of the article acknowledges that the term itself is an example of outdated language. That doesn’t negate the fact that there is reasonable evidence to argue she’s a trans girl.

“However, “newhalf” wasn’t always used in a pornographic or insulting context, especially in 1994 Japan. The term is older, and stems from popular use of the term ハーフ, or “half,” used to refer to Japanese people of mixed-race origin. This form of self-identification became popularized throughout the early 1980s. By 1982 it had been picked up by the press and was used to refer to transgender performers such as actress and singer/songwriter Rumiko Matsubara.”

At best I would say in the context it’s used like transvestite, which isn’t Great™️ but was some of the terminology available to people before the LGBT community was realized by activists primarily in the US.

Metroid’s Samus Aran is a Transgender Woman. Deal With It.

Gamers who aren't cisgender white men often find themselves lacking characters they can rally behind.

did you know that in 1953 eisenhower issued an executive order which banned gay people from being employed in government

and it was specifically to root out lesbians who enjoyed the job security of government work

“To protect their careers, lesbian government workers moderated their behavior to avoid suspicion. They refused to socialize with other lesbians in public, attended social functions with gay men as their ‘dates,’ and carefully chose their wardrobes and makeup to project a feminine persona. Male employees who resented reporting to a female boss could trigger an investigation into her sexuality.” - Robert J Corber “Cold War Femme”

this era was called the lavender scare and was both a direct result of mccarthyism and the classification of homosexuality as a mental illness during ww2. over 10,000 lesbians and gay men lost their jobs and as a result the daughters of bilitis (the first ever lesbian activist group in the u.s.) formed in order to protect themselves and gay men

Important history

and it’s John Kerry’s apology for these events that was removed from the State Department website days after Trump took office  

raidstorm:

i’m convinced that the ice age franchise won’t end until the squirrel that always chases after the nut gets an equally hideous girlfriend with Squirrel Tits™ and eyelashes

no….. No

NO

No you don’t understand, I have this entire developed theory about the Ice Age universe which has been cooking up in my mind and has only be reinforced by the latest 5th installment.
Scrat is the god of the Ice age universe. The story began with him and the story will end with him. If there weren’t hints before, in this latest installment, it becomes clear that Scrat’s actions dictate what happens on Earth and to the protagonists. Yes, maybe Scart’s only goal is to get the nut, but his actions SHAPE what happens in the film.
If we needed any further proof then may I point out something Buck said in the 5th film along the lines of “we’re 6 mins early! Somebody up there likes us!”
That phrase is usually used to refer to a god and in this case it’s used to refer (unknowingly) to scrat!

However, there is an ALTERNATE theory that I have been working on. What if Scart isn’t the god of the ice age universe, but rather, the NUT is? As i have already said, Scart’s actions shape the course of the story but what motivates Scart? That’s right: the nut, it is truly because of the nut that Scart does what he does that leads to the events that take place in the story.
This would create an interesting metaphor here. Scrat is chasing the nut like man chases divinity.
So when will the Ice Age saga end?? When Scart finally gets the nut for good. When man catches God.

i didnt even read this but im laughing at how many times scrat is typoed as scart

“what motivates Scart? That’s right: the nut” is the funniest fucking string of words I’ve read in my life
