there were no digital effects used in that shot. they actually had David Bowie hanging upsidedown on this rig system with his boot glued to the brick. then they just flipped him around and were like, ok David, don’t die.
For Labyrinth nostalgia <3

Or that twitter is the lowest bandwidth social site?
And has a good mobile site that doens’t need data?
Or intergrates well with texting?
But. Hey.
People are using twitter whilst squatting in mud huts!!!111!!
Next we’ll be talking about how socialmedia works with not against present societal connections and predilections so cities where folks are already social and inclined to sociability aren’t waiting around for whit folks to approve them being social

Tyler Oakley: “Why Diversity Sucks.” | Download
Tyler has deleted his original upload and his YouTube network has taken down copies that have been uploaded to YouTube since, but you can download the video here.
Tyler has never apologized for the content of this video, except to say, “Best part of doing YouTube for 5+ years is seeing how much I’ve grown up. Worst is the cringeworthy bumps documented along the way. Oh well!”
When Laci Green, who is planning to collaborate with Tyler, was told about this video and why it made some people uncomfortable with her collaboration with Tyler, she said, “I don’t give a single fuck. If people don’t understand how the learning process works and that alienating them doesn’t advance the cause, that’s not my problem.”
Laci, have you ever considered that your viewers aren’t offended by Tyler’s sentiments out of some lofty ideological commitment to social justice, but because blatant racism makes them uncomfortable?
Have you considered that Tyler’s racist comments and his lack of apology might alienate people, hinder the learning process, and hurt the causes you are trying to promote?
This is the sort of thing that demands a sincere apology, not “Oh well!” and “I don’t give a single fuck.”
Hello ultimate-omega receipt, nice to meet you.
reasons why tyler oakley should find a fire and shoo fly don’t bother me
If anyone wants to know why Tyler Oakley is a tragic worthless asshole
Reblogging again for the link. WTF?
This is why my step-father told me not to stop (not even for gas) when I’m driving through those states… He told me a terrible story about him driving through Mississippi (heading to New Orleans). Long story short, he had to pretend that he had a gun in his back pocket for them to leave him alone, and this was just a few years ago.
And I also heard that they did not integrate high school proms until 2005.
“BUT THAT HAPPENED IN THE 1960’s!!!!!!!1111ONEONE”
Post racial society, everyone. Huzzah!
but wait….
isn’t there some gay marriage campaign that likes to point how gay marriage is like interracial marriage and how we got ours so they should get theirs?
yeah.

Oh the irony and blatant lies.
Okay, my initial reaction is: this is hilarious. They really are just taking the “I’m rubber, you’re glue” approach.
But then I read the linked article.
There is something deeper at work here. Karl Rove isn’t just parroting the left’s (well-founded and backed up) accusations back at them. His specific claim is that President Obama “suppressed the vote” by using negative ads that dispirited voters. This is actually a deeper strategy than it looks like. What he’s doing is taking an important, powerful term—voter suppression—and robbing it of all meaning, turning it into a bland general term for anything that makes people not vote for someone. It’s an attempted inoculation against further backlash, both from this election’s voter suppression efforts and all future ones. If he’s successful, then “voter suppression” will just become “one of those things that both sides do”. It will be the new “negative campaigning”.

What I always enjoyed about Morticia and Gomez was how they made no secret that they passionately loved each other. We get so used to seeing depictions (on television especially) of married couples in continual states of contention—belittling one another, falling into the wife/mother-husband/child trope, and generally disrespecting each other, which made me wonder why they even bothered marrying in the first place.
But Gomez and Morticia never lose their desire and respect for each other. Is it because they’re “weird” that it’s acceptable to depict married life so positively? Or are they “strange” because, after three children and a lifetime together, they still adore each other? I know no marriage is perfect, but wouldn’t it be nice if the media portrayed marriage as more than a continuous state of exasperation and anger? Maybe that’s why romance novelists and romance novel readers are so embattled: because we dare to believe in love.
“How long has it been since we waltzed?”
“Hours.”
this is my feel good movie whenever i’m sad, lonely, homesick or just out of fucks. i grew up watching this movie as a kid and i always wanted to be part of this family. so now that i’m a grown up, i have this family. not the kids part, but that’s just fine. oh, also, gomez is one of my fashion inspirations. and wendsday is my secret sister.
I WANT A GOMEZ SO BAD
I mean, I can’t really speak to how ~revolutionary the creator of the Addams Family was, but I do know that a big driving force behind the original comic strip and later show was kind of a tongue-in-cheek take on 50s/60s domesticity.
I don’t know that it was meant to be quite as pointed as it winds up being in retrospect, and certainly the TV series (all two or three of them) and the movies (even when they were produced by ABCFamily) I don’t think meant to make it a serious point, but nonetheless it is a distinctive and noteworthy counterpoint to their contemporaries’ depictions of domesticity.
However, and this is a big thing to keep in mind, Gomez was meant to be a Spaniard, well, Castilian to be specific. So there’s also that to keep in mind.
I mean, the character evolved from a series of cartoons in the New Yorker, the characters were unnamed, but all these attributes were added as part of the canon of the live-action series. Which makes it interesting that these nameless, quirky characters would be turned into these cosmopolitan, continental European (less so in the beginning, but gradually more so over time), romantics.
None of that is to detract from the reality that they’re one of few visible romantically engaged….well…romantic couples. Like, the way they behave, they seem far more like they’re newlyweds, or courting, but inasmuch as it’s explicitly given, we can presume they’ve been married (by the time all the stories take place) for at least 13/14 years, and that doesn’t take into account the possibility that they spent a good portion of their relationship without children.
All that is to say, I love the romance of these two, especially the chemistry between Raul Julia and Anjelica Huston, but there’s probably a lot of really interesting reasons why they are as romantic as they are.
Sorry for getting all serious and all.

Jesse Owens at the Berlin Olympics, August 1936.
In August of 1936, American athlete Jesse Owens won four gold medals, setting three world records and tying a fourth in the 100 yard dash, all in front of Adolf Hitler, who had planned to use the games as a tool to promote the physical superiority of the Aryan race.
A Buckeye.
Funfact- While Hitler was pretty pissed that Owens won, it was Hitler who was gracious enough to actually acknowledge that Owens won.
“Hitler didn’t snub me – it was FDR who snubbed me. The president didn’t even send me a telegram.”
Owens was never invited to the White House to be congratulated, and he never received so much as a word from FDR or from Truman. Whereas Hitler sent Owens a commemorative photograph of himself.
You know you’re fucked up when even Hitler sends somebody a complimentary photograph and you didn’t send them jackshit.
omg, the very idea, Owens owned a personal photograph of hitler…like…the very idea of that just shakes me a bit, the ultimate racist sent you a picture of himself…omg
wow this is truly mindfucking
the fact that the ultimate racist of all racists acknowledged and sent a gift to owens
and america never gave two shits.
like wow.
can you believe that?
