Hey everyone, so you know organizations like UNICEF and whatnot that allow you to buy the kind of gifts where you donate mosquito nets or something in a person’s name? Well a lot of those organizations will let you donate vaccines, as it turns out. Like, right now on UNICEF’s site, providing 100 polio vaccines to kids in need is 19 USD. And I’m not saying you should buy it and then send a card to an anti-vax relative saying you’ve provided lifesaving vaccinations in their name, but actually that’s exactly what I’m saying
Tag: good call
people who aren’t at least mildly obsessed with something are hard to buy gifts for
word to the wise: don’t hide your obsessions; all you get is soap/candles.
My hair was in two messy buns, and then [Ryan] was like, “You look like Princess Leia!” And then I was like, “Okay, this is not actually my hair.” Well, we’ll make it happen, so we created the bun, the Princess Leia buns, and the rest is what you see on screen. – Letitia Wright
I sort of really want a bunch of poly trios to take advantage of this.
for the next Reboot That Makes Men Angry I’d like to submit for your consideration Lupita Nyong’o as Indiana Jones
and she steals artifacts from museums and returns them to their rightful cultures
Oh my god, imagine the Indiana Jones temple-robbing scenes in reverse! She walks through the Scorpion pit, she ducks under the swinging axe, she jumps the spike trap… She pulls the idol from her bag and gently places it back on the altar. Then she walks out without looking back while all around her, the temple settles back down into tranquility.
“She pulls the idol from her bag and gently places it back on the altar.“
SLIGHT correction – she walks up to the altar, where there is a small canvas bag, filled with sand and (she already knows) the exact same weight as the idol. She crouches down, holding the idol at the ready. The moment stretches on. She takes a breath, holds it, and with hands as quick as lightning swaps the idol for the bag of sand. She exhales.
