Tired: Tom and Jerry are enemies who hate each other and only form temporary alliances when they want to achieve a common goal.

Wired: Tom and Jerry are best friends, but Tom has to act like he hates Jerry to protect them both from his owners.

Inspired: Tom and Jerry have a complicated and complex relationship that cannot be forced into restrictive parameters such as "friendship" and "rivalry". The term that best defines their relationship is "frenemy", but even that word simplifies their dynamic considerably. To say that Tom and Jerry are best friends, but act hostile towards each other simply to keep a façade for Tom's owners would be grossly inaccurate. There are many cartoons where Tom is mean, sometimes even cruel, to Jerry simply because he can (without his owners telling him to) or when Jerry annoys and/or tries to get Tom kicked out of the house just for fun. At the same time, stating that their relationship is based solely on hate is incorrect as well. Every single time when they finally managed to get rid of each other, Tom and Jerry have found themselves bored out of their minds and unable to operate properly. They need their chases, their dynamic, their typical formula (aka each other) in order to normaly function. For them, their relationship is both a source of familiarity (which they find comforting) and a source of unpredictability (which manages to keep things interesting). That familiarity and that unpredictability is what keeps them going and what keeps them coming back to each other everytime. To summarize, Tom and Jerry aren't your typical friends or your typical enemies. They don't trust, don't really like and don't really get along with each other (save for a few occasions). But, at the same time, neither of them would be able to live without the other, they wouldn't be Tom & Jerry then, and the thought of losing one another is equally terrifying and equally unbearable for both of them.

People who hate the south because they think that it's just full of racist white hicks are literally like my least favorite people on the planet. Wdym you think the part of the USA most directly influenced and shaped by black culture and experiences is just only super racist and white. Have you ever been to SEATTLE

I hate it when I talk wistfully about the ancient world and then people are like “you wouldn’t survive back then” yeah obviously I would die immediately but do you think achilles would be able to survive in the modern world if he had to send one polite email? no

I can't be the first to make this connection

YESSS

I carnally desire this man btw

Godzilla in pop culture: Look at this funny dinosaur guy fight other dinosaur guys. He's so wacky!

Godzilla in the original film (and Shin Godzilla and Minus One): This beast represents our fears and damaged psyche caused by nuclear destruction. We must be staunchly anti-war or risk the annihilation of our species to petty grievances. We will never truly heal from the pain and suffering that occurred in Nagasaki and Hiroshima.

Godzilla in every other movie: Look at this funny dinosaur guy fight other dinosaur guys. He's so wacky!

I should mention that I legitimately love both styles of film, but the mood whiplash between them is pretty intense.

imagine simping for capitalism this badly

btw supporting palestine is a basic decency. the most normal take is to be against genocide. like naturally. people should not be praised for supporting palestine when it's literally the moral and ethical stance to take. genocide is bad. i can't believe we have to explain that to people. genocide is literally bad. it is morally ethical to be against genocide. people shouldn't be praised for basic decency

I had and still have multiple favorites but if I had to narrow it down then Matilda is gonna have to volunteer as tribute😭

1. Yes they have to fight, 2. Tell me who’s fighting who in the tags! (I’ll add the most ridiculous combos in a reblog)

Idk why people think telling ppl with ADHD to break a task into smaller tasks will help at all with executive dysfunction because you just told us to turn 1 task we are struggling to do into like 5 extra tasks that we will continue to struggle to do.

Idk Abt anyone else but the thing is my brain already splits tasks into smaller ones and THATS WHY I can't JUST do one task. For me one task is like 8 mini tasks I gotta do. It makes my dysfunction even worse.
