“Do you want to talk about it or be distracted from it” is honestly the best thing you can say to me when I say im sad/in pain etc.
this is really good advice to say to anyone who is upset
Alsooo may I add: “do you want advice or do you just want to vent?” Is also good to add because often unsoliticited advice can further hurt someone who really just wanted a listening ear.
Behind the Scenes | Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999)
Wait a sec
I always thought George Lucas was just being an ass when he decided to change Timothy Zahn’s pronunciation of Coruscant. That’s literally how I always heard it: “hurr blurr sure this guy help establish an ongoing series of novels that almost singlehandedly maintained interest in my franchise enough that I finally feel it’s the right time to continue it in film so I’ll use his name for the capital planet buuuuuut I don’t care about his linguistic choices.” Nowhere have I ever seen that Lucas changed it to help a child actor feel comfortable and not embarrassed about tripping on his lines.
Don’t really say this in regards to the prequels much, but good on you George Lucas
The long answer is that it introduced the idea of a truce in the minds of younger gang members on both sides. They grew up to lead both the 1988 peace summit (which included a brief ceasefire) and the 1992 truce. The truce, and the Rodney King Riots which coincidentally started the very next day, fundamentally changed gang life in LA, making the streets safer, dropping the murder rate, and increasing illegal drug profits for about a decade.
He was fucking wonderful and did wonderful things for people without ever asking for credit for it.

MJ is a great example of how black celebrities try to use their opportunities and fame to help the black community. I want modern black artists to act like him.
Dove chocolate and Dove soap are two different companies who havent sued each other because they have different trademarks lol
Damn and I really all this time just thought dove (the soap people) had a meeting one day and were just like “…. we might fuck around and make some chocolate”
Headcanon: Professor McGonagall has a muggle wife she never mentions to the students, because they never ask.
Four years after Harry’s left Hogwarts he visits McGonagall’s home to talk her out of retirement, and the door is opened by a woman he doesn’t recognise. Confused, he introduces himself and asks to see McGonagall. The woman recognises the name and invites him in, saying Minerva will be home soon. She then talks a mile a minute, but not about the war - about the stories she’s heard about the golden trio from their head of house. About how Harry stood up to Umbridge, and how clever Hermione was, and how Ron had been able to beat her chess game, and how PROUD Minerva was of them all.
By the time McGonagall does arrive, Harry and her wife are chatting like old friends. Minvera’s wife calls her things like “Darling” and “Pumpkin.” Harry cannot believe his ears.
Harry is invited to tea every Wednesday from then on. He always looks forward to it.
but lets be real here, even with the “darling”s and “pumpkin”s Harry still wouldn’t catch on and he’d go home and tell Ginny all about McGonagall’s lovely gal-pal and Ginny would have to be like “babe…that was her wife”
You’re right, fuck! How could I forget how deeply unobservant Harry is?!
Is it just me or is the reason that Eartha Kitt’s original version of “Santa Baby” is better than all the rest (other than the fact that Eartha Kitt is inimitable) the fact that Eartha was actually singing to a sugar daddy that she was playfully calling “Santa” and was dead serious about all the things she was asking for (…and Michael Buble was really trying to sing to Santa)
wait do people genuinely think that santa baby is about santa??? i’ve known that it was about a sugar daddy since i was like 11 i
Michael Buble doesn’t know what a sugar daddy is and that’s the flaw that will finally kill him
