The community has been growing MORE & MORE supportive
overtime. Most roleplayers do not mind the length of time that it
takes for you to reply to things, which is WONDERFUL!! But, there are still some people who actually do mind the length of time, so please REBLOG this if you are not bothered by the time it takes for your
roleplay partner to reply to you, and would much rather prefer them to be COMFORTABLE and HAPPY.
-shoddy camera work bc they only had one or two cameras
-they decide to strap a JATO rocket to a Chevy Impala
-they call the actual Air Force and ask “hey can we have a JATO rocket” and because this is episode 1 the response they get is “… Why???? and who are you????”
-the dirt-cheap used car they buy (to strap a rocket to, of course) breaks down as they’re trying to drive it back to the warehouse, and they have to call triple A to pick them up
-the random urban legends lady who pops in, talks about cars being sex symbols for some reason and is never mentioned again afterwards
-the Air Force people call them back, twice, just to make extra sure they know that of course they absolutely can’t have a JATO rocket for their nutso project, who even are they anyways -so they weld on three amateur rockets instead as an approximate equivalent
-Adam welding inside the car and keeps accidentally setting the car on fire
-because you can’t safely be inside an amateur-made rocket-powered car, they decide to remote control it
-that’s right
-rocket-powered, life sized RC car. these men are living the dream
-Adam: ‘this is so exciting, I’m going to have to have a grin-ectomy’
-Jamie (yes, JAMIE) giggling wildly when it actually WORKS, somehow
-and then as an encore they disprove the myth that you can pop your stomach by drinking soda while eating pop rocks by mounting a pig’s stomach inside of a plastic skeleton and force-feeding the stomach massive amounts of soda
-I just really love the Mythbusters what a show
The proper abbreviation for “Japanese” is JPN, not “jap”. “Jap” is an ethnic slur that was used in World War II, and it stings a lot to see it even if we know if the person using it has no bad intentions and just is not informed. Please take care to use the proper abbreviation! And please correct anyone you see using the incorrect abbreviation! Thank you!
acceptable: JPN, JA, JP
not acceptable: Jap
DO NOT DO THE THING.
Reblogging because I know that for a few of my followers, English is not their first language and they may perhaps not know this. It’s important not to be ignorant.
Watching Voltron Legendary Defender I began to notice something that the entire team has in common: they all without question protect Pidge. The team will go out of their way to make sure Pidge is safe, and anyone who attacks Pidge is immediately dealt with.
Pidge draws the attention of the commander?
Turn the commander’s attention onto you.
Falling down a slide of death? Put Pidge on your shoulders out of reach.
Pidge is almost never standing by themself. Someone is always near them, and normally? It’s Shiro and Hunk, the two biggest guys on the team.
You will almost never see Pidge on the edge of the group, Pidge is never exposed.
Not even the sloth thing touches the Pidge.
Everyone else is complaining? We can keep going. Pidge has a breakdown? REST TIME.
It was all verbal until the Princess threw food goop at Pidge?
GAME ON, ALLURA. Immediate retaliation from Keith.
There’s a thing falling at you, no way is Shiro going to let his Pidge get squished.
Nothing harms the Pidge.
Alien has Pidge held in painful grip, rest of the team can’t do anything?
LANCE WAKES UP FROM A F**KING COMA TO SHOOT THE ALIEN!
In short? Pidge is precious and must be protected at all costs. You touch Pidge? The rest of the team will make you regret it.
