Aizawa: Okay, any questions about the material? Class 1-A: Aizawa: Why are all of you so quiet today? Class 1-A: Izuku: S-Sensei? Aizawa: What? Izuku:…Nevermind. Aizawa, wearing pigtails because Mic found him sleeping in the teacher’s room: What the hell is it?
They didn’t just cut out the parts with the oat milk, they skillfully edited over all the god-damn branding and replaced the audio.
But what I still find most hilarious about this whole commercial is the fact that everything they show in this solar punk world seems to be made with sustainable, zero waste and reusable materials.
Everything EXCEPT THE FUCKING CHOBANI BRANDED STUFF! The only plastic you see in this whole commercial is all the straight to the landfill packaging made by the very corporation that tries to sell how sustainable and “green” they are. Unintentional self satire at its finest.
They couldn’t even show their yogurt and milk in (basically infinitely reusable) glass containers because they pretty much only sell their shit in plastic
It is such a perfect example of the true face of “green” capitalism, it’s hilarious.
The punk in this solarpunk comes from cutting the corporation out of the picture
One thing I love about Tumblr that wasn’t a thing on Reddit is that I can just write whatever the fuck text post I want. No titles. No putting text on images. No algorithms or karma. Just fuckin splatter your mind onto the screen and people will see it. Like god intended.
I feel like I want to explain to young tumblr users who weren’t born yet that MulderxScully was a revolutionary ship. No, it was not queer but that is not the only way to be revolutionary.
In the 90s when The X Files was airing, media was like misogyny soup. Yes, there were exceptions. But casual sexism was so ubiquitous it was like we were all frogs simmering in it and if you dared to say, hey, uh, isn’t this joke a little shitty to the wife? Or maybe this female character could do something other than pose and ask questions so the male lead can answer them? Then you were a hairy feminist outcast loser.
Scully was a lot of things but she was not that. All the “You’re not going to believe this, Scully!” memes are based on the fact that Mulder, an attractive white dude, wanted nothing more in his entire life than to share his passions with this tiny redhead. Was he nuts? Yes. But on many other shows, he would have talked down to her, would’ve ignored her, would’ve mocked her. He didn’t.
When you go back and watch The X Files, there’s these moments where Mulder and Scully look at each other like, “wait did Jack Black really just say that” and the significance to fan history isn’t just the sexual tension. It’s that, yeah, and the origin of the word ship, and the ‘will-they-won’t-they’. But the most important thing about those looks is how they told the audience that Mulder was looking to Scully for something. A man was looking at a woman and asking with his eyes “what do you think about this?” Was he also saying “and do you want to bone about it?” Yeah, yeah he was. But the first thing was sexy as hell.
Respecting a woman’s expertise and folding information she provided into his worldview was a revolutionary thing for a man to do on television at the time. Thank you for coming to my MSR ted talk.
