I think that the mount of times I heard the word "testicle" while trying to get the timing of the last three pictures correctly done some temporary damage to my brain
I strongly agree that there are world events that deserve much more news coverage and resources than the Titan because frankly it should’ve been immediately assumed they were dead when sonar couldn’t find them and communication was lost.
However, I don’t necessarily think it’s fair to compare the EU coast guard and the US and Canada's various first response teams that responded to the Titan. Because they’re separate entities.
Do I think people should care more about the refugee ship that capsized due to alleged incompetence of the coast guard? Yes. I do. And I hope more survivors can be found because that was a genuine tragedy.
Do I think that it should be getting the same kind of attention as the Titan? Not really. Because people are just memeing on the Titan, and the average tumblr user has around $0.20 to their name and maybe 400 followers so this isn’t a very good platform for getting meaningful help for those affected by that situation.
This isn’t even a “you can care about two things at once” situation, because again with the Titan you should be very amused by 4/5 of those deaths whereas there’s nothing funny about what happened to that fishing ship. These are very different niches in cultural awareness and your ire should be towards media companies over random people on social media.
Rules: Post a poll with three (or more) songs from one of your characters playlists, except there is a catch: one of the songs is not truly on their playlist. Have your followers guess, and when the poll is finished, reveal which song was the fake.
i do have 1 ½ playlists for her :3 but i'll be using [locked] today.
to me the beauty(?) of royal pains is. chloe is of course the most toxic gf with all sorts of issues you couldn't even imagine while jake seems all well-composed and able to deal with her shit. however the truth is that he is not, in fact, able to deal with her shit. he's just as if not even more unhinged than her.
Hostile: depending on the level of hostility, you may encounter: cold glares; vicious insults or being cursed out; being flipped off; having a knife pulled on you; a harsh "fuck off" and a baring of teeth; being physically or verbally attacked with little to no warning.
Neutral: a guarded or annoyed expression; suspicion or hostility; "what."; a disinterested "hey"; a bored expression and an expectant raising of eyebrows with no verbal greeting.
Friendly: an energetic "hey"; "check this out" with a crooked grin; jumping straight into conversation without any proper greeting; a friendly (but strong) punch to the shoulder or arm; an affectionate shoulder check; a casual nod and a "hey" or "sup"; a too-casual nod as they enter your home and start going about their business without a word.
Romanced: a warm and affectionate "hey" and a big ol smooch; sprinting forward and practically tackling him to the ground (affectionately); sweeping him off his feet with a cheeky grin; an arm slipping over his shoulder and a bonk of their head against his OR a kiss to the side of his head/cheek.
