welp

I was thinking about making a comic about this because this is the most annoying thing.

When I was 17, I went to otakon with a (white) friend of mine. She had red, pink and white dread extensions and piercings and what not and every 5 feet we had to stop so someone could get a picture with her. She wasn’t dressed up as anyone, she was just there.

We met a (black) girl with some of the most beautiful dread extensions I’ve ever fucking seen in red, black and white dressed up as Jesse from team rocket and I kind of lost my shit because she was so cute, but I was too afraid to talk to her. While my friend was getting her 1000th picture taken, I approached her and she found out it was my first time there and wanted me to go around with her so that I didn’t feel lost.

Walking around with her for a bit was so fucking awful only because people kept saying, “It’s a ghetto Jesse.” or that she wasn’t really into that stuff because black girls don’t like pokemon.

She was seasoned by conventions to handle this talk and I felt so awful for her. I am filipina and Irish American, no one questioned me being there. But so many people assumed that because of the color of her skin that she was any less of a fan and any less unique and wonderful. How fucking dare they.

Thus is the reason the nerd culture needs to be turned inside out. So we can lose these fuckers that think that if Ramona Flowers had been black that she’d be ghetto and unfuckable.

Bb MCU Loki: *scrapes knee* mom why is my blood blue

Frigga, super Done and staying out of it: ask your father

Loki: dad, why do I have blue blood?

Odin, sweating: because you’re royalty, of course

Thor: *scrapes elbow* dad, i’m royalty, too, right? Why’s my blood red?

Odin, sweating bullets: you’re adopted

Odin panicking and telling Thor he’s the adopted one instead is peak comedy.

The face of a man realizing that he, honest to God, is going to have to fight a bunch of grown ass men in diapers.

… What the hell did this series become? Like, I’ve played the first one on PS2, and it wasn’t… this.

This is a remake of the second game.

It’s in the second game.

I’m sorry to inform you that Yakuza was always like this, it hasn’t changed directors over the course of ten years.

and before anyone says they added this story to the remake like stuff was added to kiwami…. no, they didn’t.

yakuza has always been like this

TIL a 30-year-old elephant named Ben sought help at a safari lodge after being shot by poachers. The elephant waited patiently near the lodge for the 6 hours it took for a vet to fly in and dress his 3 bullet wounds.

via ift.tt

The fact he’s named kinda brushes over the fact this is a wild elephant. Born in the wild, raised in the wild, the only human interaction is watching the safaris. And after mean humans shot him, he decided the best course of action was to go visit the nice humans who just take pictures in hopes they’d help him. And then, even though they didn’t help him right away, he trusted that because they continued to be nice, he was safe, and they would help him.

also the people saw an elephant and were like “that’s a ben”

i hope he tells the other elephants where they can get help

@brunhiddensmusings

Actually, they do!

Orphans who were rescued, raised, and released by the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Kenya have communicated that it is a place of safety to other elephants who’ve never even been there.

Injured animals will show up there when they have been harmed by poachers because they know it is a place where they can get help!

i am very glad elephants have a functioning yelp system

TIL that Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson were supposed to record several duets together for Mercury’s debut solo album. However, after only recording one song, Mercury dropped out due to feeling uncomfortable by the presence of Jackson’s pet llama being in the studio.

Mercury: whatcha got there, Michael?

Jackson with his llama: a smoothie
