I lived and worked in a lighthouse at a previous job. There was a thick line painted in a circle around the shack where the fog signal was kept. The line represented how close you could get to the fog signal without experiencing physical harm in the form of eardrums shattering or worse.
Even in the house it was LOUD. Probably the loudest thing I have ever experienced but at a normal, predictable interval. You would begin to time your sentences with little pauses with the rest of the lighthouse crew so you would talk like this while making your………..HORN…………. tea and then carry on talking because you knew when it would go off. It rattled the walls and the dishes in our cabinet.
At least one girl had died there. They kept photos of her everywhere “in honor of her sacrifice” because she had decided to take the winter watch alone and died in a storm where bounders the size of mini vans had been lifted out of the ocean and left scattered across the island, to say nothing of the ice chunks. People weren’t allowed to be alone on the watch after that.
One day a dead moose washed up on shore and it took my entire crew all day but we managed to rig up a line to hang it up to dry because we thought having a moose skeleton in the house would really spice the living room up a bit. It did. Weird shit happens when six of you are left alone, like ALONE ALONE, no cell reception, no wifi, just a radio to contact the real world and not a lot of reason to do that. People don’t go on lighthouse jobs if they want to stay connected, I’ve found.
That said Id do it all again, I really do treasure those days
Placing these one after another makes it look like he left got a lighthouse job and came back six months later to update the drive through employee
Hey so JK Rowling went full mask off and is advertising an explicitly terf store now.. Also sure is weird how TERF talking points usually consistently leave trans men out of these conversations and usually always direct their hateful rhetoric toward trans women.
Oh, no. They didn’t leave trans men out of the conversation, take a look at this bad boy!
GROSS WTF I must have missed this one, and I’m sorry for not including this in the original post jfc this is so nasty and hateful
Fuck JK Rowling. What a pathetic person.
Just another reason to not watch the hp series that wb is planning to do
DON’T SUPPORT JK
YIKES ONCE AGAIN. Rowling really be out here somehow managing to lower my opinion of her even further. I didn’t think that was even possible at this point. She gave up using a shovel and has straight up switched to a pickaxe at this point.
It’s been so long since i first saw this and i’m honestly still hung up on the pin that says “bigot” and “feminazi” on it like. “yes. I’m going to call myself a bigot. but ironically. and also a Nazi. I am a Nazi, but in a ‘bad girls do it better’ way”
I love how all of the Batman villains are like “ah he’s not at the manor, it’s defenseless! and then alfred just racks an AK-47 and is like pull up bitch
Batman’s Villains: The butler will be easy prey!
He’s just an old man…he doesn’t have any of the Batman’s gadgets or training or fighting skills!
Alfred: Oh my you’re right
There’s something else of Master Bruce’s I don’t have as well
(Cocks a shotgun) A CODE AGAINST KILLING
Batman’s Villains: Wayne isn’t here to save you old man!
Alfred:
Alfred is the original “Call an ambulance — but not for me”
I might bitch about the era of remakes we are in, but that thing when they redesign female characters from decades ago and make them hot but not oversexualized and make perverted fanboys cry ugly tears is banging actually
Guys this is SPECIFICALLY about characters who are still meant to be sexy. Removing sexualization from children’s media is also ok, but in this case we’re talking about gamers going into hysterics over Tifa getting a sports bra
Some dude literally argued that Tifa had small boobs and not a sports bra because (and I quote):
“Boobs don’t squish”.
I was stunned at the sheer level of Self-Burn. All I could do was point out to him that he’d just told the entire internet he’d never touched a boob.
This image and the “reinventing Homestuck” thing are so overused. Not everything is Homestuck you nerds. Read another fucking thing. Especially if your pose is you hate it, stop bringing it up unprompted.
If an alien race were the same size as these octopi, the females would be 6.6ft (2m) in height, and their males would only be 2.4cm tall.
Imagine seeing what you think is your alien comrade sitting alone with dinner, only to see a tiny figure dart across the table like a bug. It scurries up her arm and seems to plant a little kiss on her cheek.
Surprise, she’s having dinner with her husband!
Why is that dinner bit so cute gosh
This could be us but you decided not to be 457 feet tall 😒
Ghibli knew what was up
just because i needed an approximate visual scale on this
Wife: *sneezes*
Husband: *catapulted through the nearest window with a soft “ping” sound*
Wife: Oh. Oh shit! Ok. Nobody move, please! I’ve lost my husband! Can someone check the ground please, make sure he hasn’t fall into your pocket or something. He has to be around somewhere.
If the US military wants so bad to liberate a desert region from a repressive religious organization, Utah is right there.
That’s the drone operator’s job.
Love when people talk about how you should love and accept everyone then go on to say you should kill an entire group of people for *checks notes* believing in Jesus Christ
