Nice try fuckers.

$175K wasted with every reblog.

Let’s sure they DON’T get their money’s worth.

UC Davis has apparently issued a formal apology for their attempted coverup. Their story is that they didn’t properly scrutinize their agreement with Nevins & Associates, and they didn’t hire them with the intention of erasing content or rewriting history.
So, keep reblogging this. KEEP. REBLOGGING IT.

i’m 101% sure that this entire line was improv and tom couldn’t help it

“Yeah, that was basically, we did about six different versions of that story, and that was just us standing around while the cameras were rolling and I would just feed them lines and feed Chris ideas for stories. I’d say, “Do another one, in this one say: ‘I was walking through a field, and I saw a lovey Turkish rug in the middle of the grass, and I love Turkish rugs, so I went to stand on it, and it was Loki, and he turned back into Loki and there was a hole and I fell through the hole was was impaled on a whole lot of spikes.’” So we did versions of that, and the one with the snake just ended up being the one we used.”

AMAZING

I choose to beliee every version of this story is true

and is just a different tale of when Loki turned into something ridiculous

and tried to murder his brother

I don’t know what makes this funnier, the idea that Loki kept trying the same prank, or that Thor kept falling for it.

Thor: OH LOOK A PUPPY

Loki: WAAAAUUUGGGHHHHH

Thor: OH NO IT’S YOU AGAIN!

Look, Thor’s options were to be a lovable doofus who fell for “the same prank” of Loki pretending to be basically anything or Thor becoming hopelessly, uselessly paranoid like you do when you play Prey from start to finish in one sitting.

Thor: *crushes a desk*

Stark: Okay that was a very nice desk so I feel I’m at least owed an explanation. Also, a desk, probably.

Thor: There were two staplers on it.

Stark: …And?

Thor: I thought one of them was Loki.

I AM DYING.

“I thought one of them was Loki.”

SEND HELP!

Also, Taika said they were originally going to a film a flashback for that scene and show the prank but Chris’s deliveries were so funny that they scrapped the idea all together

The holidays can be tough.

They can suck. So remember:

YOU ARE NOT WHAT YOUR FAMILY SAYS YOU ARE

YOU ARE NOT WHAT THEY TRIED TO MAKE YOU.

YOU ARE A FIGHTER.

YOU CAN GET THROUGH ANYTHING.

YOU ARE STRONG.

YOU ARE SMART.

YOU ARE MADE OF FIRE.

BUT ALSO FULL OF LOVE.

JUST THE FACT THAT YOU ARE STILL HERE, THAT YOU SURVIVED, IS PROOF OF YOUR RESILIENCE.

HANG THE FUCK IN THERE, PLEASE!

WHATEVER THEY DO TO YOU

YOU CAN SURVIVE

You know what really fucking pisses me off guys

All of us keep saying that we dread the day wolverine, iron man, Thor, etc are recasted in like 20 or 30 years and like I’m right there with y’all

But

I’m more pissed about Deadpool getting recasted than anything

Like Ryan Reynolds spent what? 12 years on that role? Spent money out of his own goddamn pocket making that movie possible and believed in it when no one else did and made it into something special and one day some other person is just gonna take all of that away from him.

They’re not gonna do shit bc everyone loves Deadpool now and that makes me so mad.

Ryan put so much into it and he’s the Deadpool we deserve and is what makes that role so special and I never want to see the day that gets taken away from him and all those younger generations forget about him.

The internet is a utility.

Imagine the phone company throttling your calls or picking which phone calls you can receive?

“Imagine the phone company throttling your calls or picking which phone calls you can receive?“

The fastest internet in the United States is not private. It is operated as a utility. Chattanooga. The city was updating the power grid and the people working on it realized that putting in the infrastructure for high speed internet at the same time would not be that much more expensive. So that’s what they did. And a bunch of ISPs sued the city to try to stop them. Because guess what? Despite all the rhetoric in favor of the “free market”, these companies don’t actually want real competition.

So now Chattanooga has the fastest internet speeds in the entire country. It also has some of the cheapest costs in the entire country because it is run like a utility and owned by the city.

The sad part about this is that those same ISPs that sued are trying to get cities and states to pass laws to make what Chattanooga did essentially illegal.

CNN did an article on it a few years back: http://money.cnn.com/2014/05/20/technology/innovation/chattanooga-internet/index.html

After the Invasion

llyrica:

So you know how there’s all these posts about how aliens invade Earth only to realize that Earth is a death planet and/or Space Australia as the flora, fauna, weather, and natural disasters kill them off and traumatize them? Well, imagine that the alien invaders finally give up and leave Earth. What chases them off? I imagine that the resistance starts putting out information on cryptids. It’s the last straw for the invaders, especially since even the human inhabitants native to Earth seem to be confused about exactly how dangerous said cryptids are, and so the aliens have no way to be prepared to face them. Morale plummets (even further) and alien command has to call off the invasion due to the public outcry, making history as the first time this group of aliens has retreated from an invasion.

The surviving humans soon realize that the honor of chasing off that group of aliens has attracted a lot of attention from other groups of aliens. Some of these aliens are looking at possibly invading.  Others want to work with humans to turn Earth into a space vacation-destination. In order to discourage invaders while simultaneously attracting curious tourists, much information about the animals most infamous among the invaders is made readily available to the alien community in general, along with a lot of information on cryptids. Information on non-cryptids and cryptids is presented to aliens in much the same way, and the humans never clarify which are which, so many invaders are too scared to try and invade, while many tourists are intrigued by the potential mystery.

Of course, the tourists are horrified to learn that the hippopotamus is not, as they had thought, a cryptid.

Adding my own thoughts on the “Earth is Space Australia” idea floating around, I’m imagining some aliens finding an *absolute* death world, scorching hot, every single species of fauna is venomous, most of the flora is poisonous too, there’s barely any water… they think to themselves “okay, this time we’ve got it. We’ll finally stump the humans. This is a world they can’t possibly think to inhabit”. So they take it to the human colony bureau or whatever and a human stares at their report for a long while, “hmms” a lot, and then after a long moment goes,

“Send the Australians.”
