This is what I’m here for. Not only do we need men supporting women who come out about sexual abuse but we really need men supporting other men when they come forward about these stories. Like not only am I happy that Brendan came forward but I’m so proud of Terry for voicing his support of Brendan. This is huge.
Brendan Fraser was sexually assaulted!? What the fuck!
Back in 2003 he got sexually assaulted by the former president of the
Hollywood Foreign Press Association. This was during the year “Looney Tunes: Back in Action” came out just to ruin that movie for everyone but nobody would listen to him.
It actually almost derailed his career, the effects were so devastating for him. Terry is the first celebrity I’ve seen even acknowledge or support him since he started telling his story, and really some of the only support I’ve seen in general. The fact that people still don’t know about Fraser’s story even now (he came out with it during the height of the me too movement last fall) shows that it was largely ignored/swept under because of his position as a victim, at least in the eyes of society and larger news publications.
why the fuck is no one naming their children after greek goddesses? Name your fucking child Persephone?????? Bitch???????!?
If that makes you happy, my name is Demeter
In my experience, people named after Greek goddesses are some of the most ethereal, chaotic forces I have ever encountered.
Our Art Department’s nude model, for example, is a woman named Hera. She’s stunningly beautiful, rides a motorcycle as apparently her only vehicle, grows all her own food, and keeps bees, turtles, and a dog named Argus, who she walks around town with a peacock feather attached to his leash.
I am thoroughly convinced she is not of this realm.
John Mulaney, a man who is iconically known for loving his wife, after being told by Jerry Seinfeld that his wife only thinks shes good at something
Well done OP, you’ve managed to capture the moment John’s spirit left his body
Jerry’s lucky that John is too polite to throw hands
Okay but I just went and watched this for myself and it’s WORSE
He’s. So uncomfortable. It’s obvious. I cut out the part where John kind of muttered, “That is true, isn’t it” about how all men think they’re funny, but his face is just screwed up in this ‘oh god what have i done what have i signed up for this is not good and this will probably go into my next comedy special of awkwardness’
Just watched this omg bless john bc jerry just keeps trying to do some “take my wife” bullshit and john very politely goes no, no.
proud of John for restraining himself from murdering a man on camera
What’s so horrifying about this to me is that this is literally Jerry Seinfeld trying to teach John Mulaney how to gaslight his wife.
Look at that dialogue. “She thinks she knows.” He’s trying to get Mulaney to see his wife’s expertise as instead a weird misperception. He’s coaching him to undercut his wife’s confidence in the truth and her own abilities.
And Mulaney replies exactly the right way: “She does know.” He asserts not only that she’s perceiving the world accurately, but that she is an expert at something he’s not good at.
Dudes, don’t take this shit from other dudes. Mulaney isn’t by any means perfect but he aced this. Stand for the truth. Defend women’s objectivity. Promote women’s expertise.
Doesnt his wife also work with antiques too?like. Isnt that part of her actual job?
I reblog this every time because I don’t think people understand that Anna is literally an interior designer. She makes absolutely stunning Victorian Lampshades. Which she designs.. for the interior of a home… she’s literally an interior designer. She doesn’t think she’s good at it, she knows she’s good at it because it’s her fucking job

there’s nothing purer or better than how much kids enjoy being picked up and then hurled at soft surfaces
anyone who’s ever been around kids for ay meaningful amount of time should know exactly how much kids long to be hefted up and then just fuckin tossed! it’s so good! they’re so excited to get fucking tossed around like a sack of potatoes it’s so pure
literally in manuscripts if somebody doesn’t recognize loki they use she/her and if they do recognize loki they use he/him and the only reasonable explanation for this phenomenon is that everyone knows she’s trans and they don’t want to afford her the respect of using her pronouns.
like, there’s no evidence that she wants to be considered a man, at all, ever, and misgendering is not actually a sign of genderfluidity. it’s a sign of… transphobia.
I love elephant trunk snakes so freaking much. Can you imagine seeing this thick, 6-foot serpentine shape slithering through the murky water, closer and closer and then…
This dorky little puppy dog face pokes out of the water.
I did a little reading and these snakes are actually even cooler than I initially thought.
Look at this happy baby puppy-snake with his fish. (Source)
Based on appearance I had assumed they were constrictors, or at least most closely related to constrictors, but they are actually in the primitive monogeneric family Acrochordidae and are about halfway between colubrids and boas/pythons in terms of evolutionary relationships.
Elephant trunk snakes are the largest fully aquatic snake (they can’t support their own body weight and can hardly move out of the water) and can even be found in brackish water. They can stay underwater for as long as 40 minutes and can undergo supplementary gas exchange through their skin similar to an amphibians (and some turtles).
Their other common name “file snake” comes from the fact that their scales don’t overlap but actually poke out from the skin in sharp pyramid-shapes that help them grasp their fishy prey. In between these scales are sensory tubercles that allow the snakes sense their prey in murky water.
Here’s someone handling an adult. Apparently they have extremely slow metabolisms even for snakes and tend to be very chill and lazy.
