If you would report an undocumented immigrant to ICE you would have reported me to the Nazis and I don’t fucking trust you
A note:
I live in a state where you “have to” report anyone you suspect of being undocumented (that wonderful hellhole of Arizona). Now in practice this law has fallen far short, thank goodness. But if you live in such a place and they start enforcing it, here is how you get around it:
Assume everyone who doesn’t speak English is visiting.
Never ask about their job, because if they tell you they work here then you know they’re not visiting. You see them a lot for several weeks or months? Hm. Someone in the family must be ill. That’s terribly tough. They always dress in old, ratty laborers’ clothes? I feel you, my dude, I can’t afford new clothes either, and my dad has the fashion sense of an aardvark, so sometimes it’s not even about “affording” them. They say they’ve been here for years? You must have misunderstood. Spanish isn’t your first language, after all. First and last name? It never came up, or you don’t recall–you meet a lot of people.
And then, if you’re asked: no, you haven’t seen anyone residing illegally in the United States. Just people visiting.
My favorite shot in all the Wonder Woman trailers might actually be when Diana charges into that room and immediately slams her shield down on some soldier and knocks him out.
Fuck I never noticed how thoroughly she wrecked him. Like I don’t think he even realized what was happening.
Ive never watched Wonder Woman, but why is she sliding down that floor so smoothly
She has basically knee pads.
I think they stylized the way she moves to suggest flight and speed as second nature to her. I’m guessing they wanted to differentiate her movement from Superman’s, which can be explained in canon as the simple fact that her powers are different, come from a different source, as she’s been training her entire life. She’s a demigod, so her movement is…I think lighter is a good way to describe it? Whereas Superman is stomping around in direct defiance of all Earthly physical laws because he’s not human, Diana’s powers are almost angelic. She’s still a direct product of this earth and power found here. These powers are new to her in this film, but they’re rooted right here. She moves like she’s always sort of flying.
We really haven’t seen anyone else in the DCEU move like this, but that makes sense when you consider we have yet to meet any other Amazonian demigods.
Even when she’s coming to do violence her movement suggests that she’s moving in concert with the earth instead of in defiance of it. It has a more supernatural feel.
Anyway, have I mentioned lately how much I love that they put clear thought and design in how each character would move instead of the easier path of just handing Diana and Clark identical powers.
some weird alternate timeline where overwatch is just a really weird and complicated webcomic & tumblr vas scramble to give every character the most obnoxious voice
bitey this is just homestuck
see but that means that in that timeline Homestuck is the incredibly popular shooter with a huge cast. except sometimes the game doesnt get updated for 3 years and Vriska is inexplicably the best hero in the game and Hussie refuses to fix it haha
Steven Hawking‘s life proves what we should all know to be true: that intelligence without compassion is meaningless, and that every person who is truly intelligent knows caring deeply for others is the smartest choice a person can make
This is so unbelievably far from being true.
Intelligence sans compassion and empathy is what drives this world. If we care, we limit the possibilities of our minds.
very edgy, anyway i think there’s a sale at Hot Topic right now you might be interested in that
Take Me Home, Country Roads by John Denver except it’s playing from your neighbor’s radio that you can hear from your back porch, which you sit out on to relax in spite of the loud buzzing from the lightbulb and the hoards of moths that flock to it on summer evenings like this.
