Why you should watch Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle

greymichaela:

  • Lead protagonist is Jewish and it’s not played for laughs, in fact it’s not mentioned at all
  • It is, however, hilarious to watch Dwayne Johnson mutter “Oi vey” in between marveling at his muscles 
  • Every single character learns something from the game avatar they’re playing, and how to play not just to their strengths but also their weaknesses
  • When did Nick Jonas get hot
  • Like seriously
  • When
  • There is an actual, honest-to-God friendship between the two female leads where they both learn from each other, encourage each other, and delight in each other’s successes
  • Jack Black plays a teenage girl with such utter enthusiasm that you end up forgetting he’s “an overweight middle-aged man”, and his crush on another (male) character is never exploited for “humor”, not even when he gives mouth-to-mouth to him.
  • Nick Jonas
  • Hot
  • Seriously, the girls’ friendship is amazing and wholesome and refreshing
  • “ZOOLOGY, BITCH”

In conclusion, go watch Jumanji. (Also Nick Jonas got hot)

Fanon Vriska is the epitome of Evil™ but Terezi is uwu pure, as if Terezi didn’t help Vriska kill thousands of people, willingly. It was part of their deal. It was only when a friend got hurt that the line was crossed and Terezi took action.

This isn’t a callout for Terezi, I love and would die for TZ, I’m just kinda pointing out that Vriska isn’t alone here in her some of her actions even though people pretend she is.

You can’t excuse it here with “Vriska manipulated Terezi!” because she literally can’t do that, that was the whole point of a lot of their interactions, and Terezi was 10x better at manipulating than Vriska ever was, Vriska is a total hack manipulator. Plus if you’re willing to excuse Terezi on account of being forced into it (even though she wasn’t), then shouldn’t the same be said for Vriska, who had to do it or her lusus would eat her?

Neither of the liked or wanted to but hey, that’s Alternia.

Just for the record the reason I’m posting this isn’t actually because of Vriska, it’s because of all the new trolls coming out that are killers or vicious in some way and some people being like “idk about them :/” like

1. It’s Alternia, what did you expect?

2. Even the fan faves have done it, trolls kill.

Also note that Terezi has actually never killed first hand, only assisted.

Millennial Sisyphus keeps entering all the information from his resume into the web form, only for it to delete everything when he tries to move to the next page. He just goes back and types it all up again, over and over again, forever, and he never gets a job.

Millennial Tantalus has been promised that his unpaid internship will become a paid position as soon as the company has space for him. Every week he sees their new job posting. Every week he asks his boss if he can have a real job. The boss shrugs apologetically and says he’ll just have to make do with being paid in experience a little longer. He goes back and keeps working, over and over again, forever, and he never reaches the fruits of his labors.

Millennial Persephone can’t get a job without a degree, but because she had to take out loans to pay for college, she must spend 1/3 of her life working just to pay them off.

Millennial Cassandra’s title is Social Media Coordinator, she was hired to be the expert, but every time she tries to explain the problems in her company’s social media decisionmaking, the managers don’t listen…and end up hiring expensive PR flacks to repair the damage to their reputation when things blow up exactly as she predicted.

Millennial Medusa uses multiple shades of primer and opaque foundation to cover the scars snaking across her face, hiding the bruises, aligning the asymmetry in her broken nose and jaw. Red matte on the lips, green shimmer on the lids. Flawless liner on the first try. She’s had lots and lots of practice. She films her transformation in secret for all to see and learn, and again, men are turned to anonymous stone faces screaming in horror. “Liar!” “Witch!” “Take her swimming on the first date!” These words do not discourage her. These words are a challenge. GlamGorgonXx posts another video.

Millennial Prometheus uploads another PDF to his site. He’s lost track of the printing and edition of this textbook. He knows they just rearranged some of chapters then charge 150 dollars per copy, and the professor wrote the book himself. the ZIP fills uploads successfully, and he starts uploading the next one. He isn’t afraid of the potential lawsuit. knowledge shouldn’t held out of reach like this. 

Millennial Circe screenshots all the lewd messages she gets from men on online dating sites and posts them on her very popular Instagram along with their pictures and usernames. When people accuse her of attempting to destroy their reputations, she insists she’s just revealing them for the pigs they truly are.

Millennial Icarus has a Master’s degree. He applies for a graduate job. He is rejected without being offered so much as feedback on his CV. He applies for another graduate job, at a slightly less prestigious firm. The result is the same. Another. The same. Wash, rinse, repeat. He remembers the advice his tutor gave him: ‘the job market is saturated with people like you. That’s just how it is. Don’t be ashamed to apply for entry level positions and work your way up. You don’t always have to aim high.’ He puts his degree certificate in his desk drawer, looks at it guiltily, and turns the key. He applies for five jobs one afternoon; in shops, bars, offices. Decent, paid work. He is rejected four times without recall, and once on his way out of the building after a decent enough interview. The weeks pass. He applies. He is rejected. Wash, rinse, repeat. Icarus’ shoes, the smart, shiny black ones he bought in preparation for meetings with potential employers, gather dust at the bottom of his wardrobe. And he forgets the rest of the advice his tutor gave him: ‘you are worth more than just your time. Never settle for somewhere that won’t recompense you. Don’t let them use you. You can aim too low, too.’ He applies for an unpaid internship; six months, no salary, no expenses, an hour commute, no job guarantee. He loses the key to his desk drawer. The shoes he bought gather more dust; he won’t wear them, they look ridiculous, shoes which cost money to go to a job which pays none. He remembers that his tutor told him: ‘if you aim too high, you’ll only fall further.’ He forgets that his tutor told him: ‘if you aim too low, you’ll never crawl your way back up.’ And Millennial Icarus never falls, because he never flies.

a harry potter au where potions is taught by gordon ramsay

neville: *messes up his potion*

gordon ramsay: *holds neville between two slices of bread* what are you

neville: an idiot sandwich

no no no!

Imagine that this is Gordon Ramsay a la Masterchef Junior

Neville: *messes up the potion, realizes it, starts crying quietly*

GR: What’s going on?

Neville: *explains how he messed up*

GR: Oh gosh okay…we can fix this, don’t cry, see, it’s fine now? Just be more careful when you’re adding the Newt’s eyes, all right? Drop them in gently. There we go. No more tears.

Neville: *giggles wetly, wiping eyes*

Yes, he only screams when he’s dealing with people that claim to know what they’re doing and clearly dont, when he’s teaching he’s very kind and patient because they’re still learning.

He’d probably do the bread thing to Malfoy.

nononononono. I get that Malfoy is a bit of a twat, but he’s still a kid. It’d be the teachers fucking up that he’d have trouble with.

Ramsay: All you had to do was treat it with a fucking Beozar! 

Slughorn: It was a stressfu-

Ramsay: How long have you been teaching potions?!

or

Ramsay: So you’re going to raise this boy SPECIFICALLY so he can die as part of your twisted little scheme? 

Dumbledore: It’s for the greater good, professor. 

Ramsay: The greater fucking good?! *holds two slices of bread either side of dumbledoor’s face* What are you? 

Dumbledore: Am I, per chance, an idiot sandwich? 

Ramsay: Yes, you fucking are. 

Okay, now I can reblog it!

I MUST HAVE REBLOGGED A THOUSAND TIMESSSS

My favorite Gordon Ramsey moment is from the latest season of Master Chef Jr.

Gordon had run in to help a group of struggling kids with a team challenge and one of the older kids, a 12 year old boy, wasn’t passing attention while taking a pan out of the oven and not only spilled all the food but scalded Gordon.

It’s clear Gordon’s leg is in pain. He’s been badly burned without warning. But he doesn’t scream. He doesn’t yell, not even in pain, and he doesn’t go off on the child who is now frozen in fear. He calmly tells the child to set the pan down and to close the oven, safety first. Then tells him to go restart the food he was making, calm instructions.

My husband and I grew up in abusive homes where any mistake meant parents getting angry (my husband is terrified of spills or broken glasses because that meant beatings growing up, for me, anything going wrong, that could upset my mother, even if it wasn’t my fault meant screaming and emotional abuse).

I didn’t know someone could be so calm. That someone could not get angry, and put aside what they’re feeling (in this case a lot of physical pain) and not take it out on those around them, even when someone around them had messed up, because that person is a child.

Gordon Ramsey is a survivor of child abuse himself and as an adult, the most non-abusive person ever when it comes to kids.

im going to cry can gordon ramsey be my parent this sound so beautiful

Please take a moment to picture Gordon Ramsay taking over Potions when Snape becomes the DADA professor (instead of Slughorn) and not only being horrified when he realizes how terrified the students are that he’ll verbally abuse them when they mess up in Potions class but when he overhears how Snape treats students. Like can you IMAGINE the level of RAGE and CONTEMPT that Ramsay would harbor towards Snape? The asshat wouldn’t have made it to the end of HBP. Ramsay would’ve hexed his ass to kingdom come.

Rebloging ALL of this because Chef Ramsay is THE MAN!

-HC

Chef Ramsay would have become the kids’ favourite teacher and you can’t take that away from me.

Imagine him dealing with Umbridge

GR: WANDS AWAY??! How are they meant to pass exams without actually performing the charm they’re meant to do?? 

Umbitch: a theoretical knowledge will be sufficient to get them through their examinations…

GR: you fUCKING DONKEY!

Gordan Ramsay is a god and no one can tell me otherwise
