Does anyone every wonder what people were thinking...
hanabi: interwar: I mean when you think about it the whole process is just so… bizarre. Let us harvest the little seeds from these plants and grind them up until they produce a fine powder! We should mix this powder with water from the stream or that sacred liquid that bovines lactate from their mammary glands! Hark! Maybe we should wait a few hours until the microscopic magical forces make...

And we're back.
tyndalecode: So, that was interesting.  The things that cracked me up the most? 1) The amount of people in both Target and Best Buy who said, “That’s all you’re getting?” to me while we were on the checkout lines. I was there more for the experience than the doorbuster shit. So while they were precariously balancing 42in televisions in tiny shopping carts, I was just carrying two pairs of...

towelsandtea: I’m watching Just For Laughs’ Tribute to Nerds and this guy’s talking about the new Call of Duty game. I guess one of the campaigns takes place in the town in Pakistan he’s originally from and even though they speak Urdu (?) in Pakistan, all the street signs are in Arabic. “They spent three years developing this. You can see individual hairs on guys’ heads, they sweat when they...

GTA woman has niqab pulled off in assault →
jogi-nachle: A Muslim woman from Mississauga, Ont., who had her niqab pulled from her face at a local mall, says her young children no longer feel secure with only her nearby. Kadri was shopping with her three-year-old son and two-year-old daughter when she was approached by two women. One of the women began swearing at her, about her religion and her veil, telling her, “Leave our...

“towelsandtea said: So would you recommend it? I’ve been kinda undecided about...”
– If you loved the playing style/functionality of Oblivion then I HIGHLY recommend it. If you haven’t played Oblivion, then I guess it would be akin to Dragon Age or Fable?  The best part is that the side quests are endless. ENDLESS. There are never-ending procedural quests to get things or...

SKYRIM (spoilers abound)
Thoughts I’ve had about Skyrim: “yay character creation! Aw, Dunmer aren’t as pretty as they were in Oblivion. I’ll go Redguard. /is shallow” “hrm why no Persuade minigame, I loved that omg why do fanboy gamers hate mini-games, do attempts at determining another person’s feelings make them feel less manly-and-hardcore?” “ARGH I HATE YOU BLUE...

sigh
towelsandtea: And this morning I read the phrase “LJ is a dead medium” and I made an anguished Vader cry, even though it’s probably true as I haven’t been there in forever and whenever I do check my friendslist it’s mostly just fic communities post. Which is good, I guess, that fanfic still has a home! The thing I realized about Tumblr is that it’s all about the fanart and I have...

melisusthewee asked: I hate the "where are you from/what's your background" question passionately. I remember discussing it once with a friend after she had an awkward elavator conversation with a stranger. Being a POC, she was made to feel like she wasn't allowed to identify as Canadian because Canadian is a white identity. But I dunno, sometimes I think everyone treats is as a non-identity...

kinda positive thing?
A new person was making her rounds of introductions about the office and one of my coworkers asked her “Are you native to Vancouver?” Now I didn’t really get a look at the new employee (I am one of those hard workers who keeps her head down and concentrates on surfing tumblr, ngl) but I remember being newish here a few months ago and getting the usual bout of questioning: ...

offbeatorbit: Lol black people have been all up in Europe for CENTURIES, and not just the Moors like everybody and their mom wants to bring up.  Some were even like rubbing elbows with ROYALTY, and not just as some goddamn minstrel show entertainment.  The history of blacks in Europe is so SO erased.  Not to hard to think of reasons why, of course. ^ This, all of the above.

Assassin's Creed Gives Hollywood The Middle Finger
towelsandtea: bearfox:medialoaf: This is probably one of my favorite news stories in recent times. It seems tons of studios and Hollywood agents are up in arms over how Ubisoft handled selling the rights for the Assassin’s Creed movie. To make a long story short, Ubisoft wouldn’t allow anyone to develop or distribute the film unless they were able to maintain nearly complete control over...

Stop Harper's cruel crime bill →
liveindirt: In days, Harper will try to push through a crime law that could drastically raise our taxes and dole out harsher punishments for pot smokers than pedophiles — but Quebec and Ontario have refused to pay for the bad law. Together, we can stand with them and call on every province to ditch the crime bill and protect Canadians from useless expenses.

Palmater I am moved to write this blog because of Minister Duncan’s outrageous remarks that residential schools were NOT cultural genocide. This has led to discussions about whether or not the murder, torture and abuse of Indigenous peoples in...
