I’ve seen and agreed with posts calling Eric a “melodramatic sewer goblin” but I’m less than a quarter of the way through this book and nearly every adaptation I’ve seen has toned it down. Holy shit.

Wait. I think the Phantom was actually standing in the shadows tossing skulls at Raoul like he was bowling. Eric seriously? That is one of the most ridiculously conspicuous things you could have done. If Raoul didn’t think something weird was going on before, he certainly does now.

Raoul probably thought Christine had a really shy and kind of weird boyfriend who could play music really well. Now he thinks she’s being stalked by Satan. What have you gained here?

It is canon that Raoul, Le Vicomte De Chagny, hates bowling.

🚨This is a Red Alert for net neutrality 🚨

Last December, the FCC voted to to kill net neutrality. If we do not take action, this will kill the free and open internet as we know it. The internet needs you—all of you—to make sure your voices are heard NOW.

We need all hands on deck for this one. It may be our last chance. If you’re feeling under-informed and overwhelmed about why net neutrality is so incredibly important, we have this handy guide just for you.

Here’s what you can do to save the internet:

In mid-May, the Senate will vote on a resolution to overrule the FCC using the Congressional Review Act (CRA). We only need one more vote in the Senate to win. Write or call your Senators or Representatives. You can also text BATTLE to 384-387 to get more information on how to write to your reps. You can do this, Tumblr.

Join us and dozens of your other favorite companies like Etsy, Vimeo, Reddit, and GitHub to raise awareness with the Red Alert campaign being run by Battle for the Net. Just add this small widget to your Tumblr to let your followers know how they can contact their reps. It’s as easy as copying and pasting the small line of code right into the customize theme page on the web.

This is important. This matters. It’s up to you to help.

while I’m here:

aspartame does not give you cancer

gluten is not bad for you if you’re not allergic/don’t have celiac disease

superfoods aren’t real, they’re just healthy things with maybe some nicer levels of certain vitamins

vaccines do not cause autism or really anything else and the chemicals present in them that typically scare you are in such minute amounts that they do precisely fuck-all in your body (we’re talking scales of one part per million)

you cannot do a cleanse or diet to “rid your body of toxins,” your kidneys and liver have that covered

GMO foods will not kill you; most genetic crop modification just makes our crops hardier and produce more food (and genetic modification doesn’t inject more chemicals into your food, it’s just minor altering of DNA that is made of the exact same stuff your DNA is made from)

if you feed your cat a vegan diet I will personally come to your home with the skull of a long-dead predator, point out the shape of its jaw and teeth as indicators of predatory feeding habits, and then beat you with it

I love this

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Ray and Nebbie got into a little spat this morning and I couldn’t even be mad. Nebula for some reason smacked Horatio on the head then walked away and he got this mad petulant look on his little face and smacked her right back as she passed, causing her to turn around and retaliate.

Still not sure how that got started.
