Tuira Kayapó brandished her machete in the face of a government official who was trying to convince indigenous leaders to accept a mega-dam project in the Amazon, 1989
“Electricity won’t give us food. We need the rivers to flow freely. Don’t talk to us about relieving our ‘poverty’ – we are the richest people in Brazil. We are Indians.”
part of kayapó’s speech during this event
also! she’s still alive! that sort of thing is always worth pointing out to show that we really aren’t too far removed from events like this! here’s a 2019 photo of her:
I believe in Doofenshmirtz bonding with pet Perry supremacy
Bonding time
[ID 1-2: a nine panel, black and white comic, showing Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz, Perry the Platypus and Phineas Flynn from the animated series “Phineas and Ferb”.
The first two panels shows Dr. Doofenshmirtz asking slowly: “Your pet platypus… Perry?” Phineas, holding Perry, is smiling at him as he answers: “Yes sir. He doesn’t do much. Well that isn’t entirely true. He is the only platypus who’s been to space!… Play fetch…,” the rest of his speech is not visible/audible as Dr. Doofenshmirtz seems to have stopped listening, looking at the pair, mumbling: “Hmm…” The next panel shows Perry, sweating profoundly, looking away from Doofenshmirtz’ intense stare, blinking. Phineas holds him closer to Doofenshmirtz, saying: “You can hold him if you want!” Doofenshmirtz makes a questioning noise, before holding Perry, who has a thought or speech bubble over his head that shows him as Agent P with his fedora hat, several beads of sweat on his face. Next to Doofenshmirtz is a speech bubble with a heart in it. The next panel shows Doofenshmirtz, with a big smile, rubbing his face against Perry’s fur, saying: “You’re so cute, yes you are! Much cuter than another platypus I know…” The next panel shows Perry, sweating even more. Doofenshmirtz now holds Perry over his head, baby talking to him. Perry answers with his signature noise “grgrgr”.
ID 3: another digital, black and white drawing of Dr. Doofenshmirtz and Perry the Platypus. Doofenshmirtz is lying on the ground, on his stomach, petting Perry’s head, who’s facing him, also lying on the ground. Doofenshmirtz has a big smile on his face. /end ID].
Matilda (movie) remake where Trunchbull looks like one of those hyper feminine bleach blonde Republican women you see on talk shows as the token girl/eye candy. And then Miss Honey is a soft-hearted, handy, tie-wearing Butch.
It is so so important that Miss Honey is also fat.
we need a fictional wheelchair user who does all the unrealistic bullshit cars and motorcycles do in fiction. i wanna see a wheelchair do the akira slide. i need a high speed chase with a nitro-fuelled wheelchair where the character out-maneuvers cop cars. does anyone understand me
the gimmick blogs are like tumblr’s rogue gallery. yes we’ve got some heroes, yes we’ve got some villains, but more importantly if you look over here you will see some freak who devotes all their time to counting the number of “t’s” in a post
T Count: 15
Letter Count: 198
Your T Percentage: 7.58%
Average T Percentage: 6.95%
You used the letter T 1.09 times as much as average!
YOU EXIST???
Sometimes you create a guy and it turns out they already exist
“writers deserve attention more than actors” literally only 2% of actors can pay the bills with acting. For every megastar on screen there are a dozen other people in the shot who are SAG. Acting gets so glamorized but there are SO MANY people in SAG who NEED residuals to live on. Background Party Girl #4 needs her check too!!!! There are people who play recurring characters on syndicated shows who cant afford health insurance!!! Ke Huy Quan gave an oscar winning performance and LOST HIS HEALTH INSURANCE the next year.
