dude seeing these Mega high quality images of the surface of mars that we now have has me fucked up. Like. Mars is a place. mars is a real actual place where one could hypothetically stand. It is a physical place in the universe. ITS JUST OUT THERE LOOKING LIKE UH IDK A REGULAR OLD DESERT WITH LOTS OF ROCKS BUT ITS A WHOLE OTHER PLANET? 

LIKE THIS JUST LOOKS LIKE IT COULD BE A PERSON’S BACKYARD. LIKE YEA A LITTLE DUSTY MAYBE THERE WAS A SANDSTORM BUT THAT’S COOL I’M JUST GONNA WALK DOWN TO THE STORE P S Y C H YOU’RE ON MARS BICH!

i hate to be rude and intrude on this post but we have decent pictures of the surface Venus too!

i know ive talked about this before but we literally have no reason not to bring the original gay flag made in the 70s by gilbert baker back to regular use!

the pink stripe was simply taken away because pink fabric was too expensive to mass reproduce at the time, and the turquoise stripe was taken away for a really odd reason: for the harvey milk remembrance parade in 1979, they wanted three stripes on each side of the street and didn’t want it to be asymmetrical, so they did away with the turquoise stripe. like, they could have fixed it in some other way without removing a whole stripe, but eh whatever history’s history.

the pink originally symbolized sex and the turquoise was for magic/art and it would just be really cool if we could bring both the stripes back into regular use again since there wasn’t any significance behind the removal of the stripes and we’re perfectly capable of mass producing flags with all the stripes again!

if anyone is interested, in 2017, shortly before he died, gilbert baker added a 9th stripe in lavender to represent diversity, partly in response to trump’s election. while i dont expect it to gain any kind of widespread usage, it is an interesting fact!

What happened to the days when Cartoon Network cared?

image

When they had creative bumpers? 

image

When they had variety?

image

When they had blocks that were interesting and entertaining? 

image

And when they had such great shows like the original Powerpuff Girls? 

image

Dexter’s Laboratory 

image

Courage 

And many others? 

image

And when they had great hidden and forgotten gems like sheep in the big city?

I just rediscovered it recently and I really love it. 

What happened? How did they get so bad?

Now I’m not saying cartoon network has bad shows now. There are many gems too like 

image

Adventure Time 

image

Steven Universe 

image

OK KO

And many others but the problem is that they are ignored and there’s no variety 

It’s not like before at all 

image

And the bumpers are just so uninteresting now. There’s no crossover or anything interesting going on at all now. 

image

And there are so many bad revivals now that bring shame to the older versions 

image

And of course too much airings of a bad cartoon 

Now I have said this before, I hate Teen Titans Go and I can tolerate it on being on the network for I’ve seen bad shows on other networks but not this much. It’s just too much and it doesn’t deserve the attention that it gets. 

image

And remember it’s sister channel Boomerang when it aired classic shows and had those toy bumpers?

image

Now it’s bumpers are uninteresting and I have seen modern cartoons on it when it should only be classic shows. And the 90s shows have a bad time slot late at night where people can’t really watch. 

 Just how did things get so bad? 

image

What happened Cartoon Network? You were at the top of your game and now you’re really bad. 

I really hope you improve cause what you’re doing now isn’t getting you anywhere. It’s only making you worse. 😦
