I watched this movie for the first time a few years ago and I was bracing for the worst but it was surprisingly wholesome, and not homophobic or transphobic. Like, for one, the Wayans brothers are not forced to do this disguise schtick like I thought. They CHOSE to do this. Further, at every opportunity for someone to see through their terrible disguises or treat them like a “man in a dress”, no one bats an eye. They are fully accepted as women, and later on in the movie when it is exposed that they are not the characters they are impersonating, the friends of those characters actually prefer the Wayans brothers over the real girls. Everyone except Terry Crews of course, but he only has a problem with them not being white, not not being women.

We need to fundamentally change our values to prioritize life over money. Money, the abstraction of value for exchanging resources, has brainwashed us into collecting and spending it. We’ve allowed it to get between us and access to literally everything tiny thing we need to survive, and we even use it as a social score that places us in castes. Money truly is the root of all evil. Think about it, every decision we make is based on money, how much it costs, how fortunate you are to have the money in the first place. Money money money. Life over money, please

Western folks don’t usually hold the bowl and utensils so close to the face

They actually just pressed reeds into soft clay, then fired the tablet in a kiln. It probably took the same amount of time to write that as with any modern writing implements

Because they are thieves and hate having that pointed out to them

Thunder! ⚡

They make fire resistant vents for this exact reason

Turtle shells are already on the inside. The entire surface of their shells is skin!

So it begins. This is LITERALLY how the Holocaust started, trying to deport millions of people at once but no one wanted them, so they became Germany’s “problem” that they felt the need to “solve”

Bulettes, obviously

As someone with formal education in electrical engineering, electricity is magic and we are wizards

My guess is a combination of this and all of the lead everywhere

Amazing

What is with the UK Labour party consistently own-goaling and walking into rakes as soon as they get into power? Y’all just had a landslide victory! Do something with that!

You can see those types of sign vehicles in Vegas, especially on the strip, but let’s just say they’re not for political ads 😜

That’s because we have a Russian plant at the helm of the only, let’s be honest, sort-of-not-really viable third party in this country. We need an overhaul of our voting system to get out of this mess, like with RCV

So much nuance, wow

It saunters up to the tiki bar, sunglasses slightly askew, as it holds up a sand dollar with one tentacle while another is waving, beckoning

What a heartwarming story
