The degree to which people fight against the idea that non whites were anything more than savages is astounding.

Alt-right commentator claims Romans weren’t ethnically diverse, gets owned by actual historian

I’m just going to cry over this forever. I would have watched the fuck out of this but it wasn’t picked up for a series and now life is meaningless.

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG

No I’ve never seen this before. I would have watched this too. I mean, I’ve heard some bad things about it, but of all the reboots/remakes, so far (I’m about 20 minutes in) I would want to watch this one the most. It’s not a boring nearly identical rehash of the original storyline like the Ben Cross version, nor is it a goofy failed parody like the Burton version. It’s different enough to justify it’s existence, it looks slightly insane but in an entertaining rather than insulting way, and best of all, it’s genuinely creepy in moments? David is creepy and not a poor young waif. The Collinses are terrible but likeable enough. Ok, Roger is a bit of a creep and no Louis Edmonds, but I could see him being ok. Collinwood is creepy, Barnabas is creepy, the makeup is creepy, everything is creepy. I’m even kind of digging Willie Loomis. 

Also, BLAIR BROWN OMG. Also Julia is a babe? 

This is literally the only reboot I would have wanted more of. Why didn’t this go anywhere?

…before leaving the house, take a photo of your stove and oven dials—or your thermostat, or your iron, or anything else you worry about accidentally leaving on. If your brain starts to play the “Did I really turn it off” game, you can simply tap your photo app and see for yourself

Reblogging to save a life

this is a good strategy

I can imagine this being incredibly helpful for some people with OCD, as well as folks like me with anxiety disorders combined with ADHD (so lack of executive function which leads to frequently forgetting things which leads to legitimizing the fears from the anxiety since a lot of the time I DID forget The Thing…)

I wish I had a nickel for every time I left my subdivision then turned around to go back because I couldn’t remember if I turned off the coffee pot or closed the garage door. And that’s just when going to the store! It’s much worse if I’m going to be away for a few days.  

I really needed this.

Great idea!
