Just wanted to say that's actually not a baby owl! It's a full grown Northern Saw-whet Owl from North America and they are tiny and awesome.
Still adorable though  |

animation
oooo, Anita Sarkeesian
I don't particularly like her

but not quite so horrible as you
not quite so boring either

...if I ask for context regarding that animation with Fluttershy, will I regret it?

there's really not any context
there was a sketch and it got cleaned up and colored
quoth the artist: "Ahahahahaha I have no idea"
| Quote: |
Ahahahahaha
I have no idea
|
uhhhhh
the full context is that there is a tumblog loosely based around a fat pony OC or two
also, there's a part two:
I feel your pain, Fluttershy. I feel your pain.

I know we're desperately trying not to engage but COME ON what is this fucking shit? We hate people for making a living off commenting on popular culture? As if she's the first fucking person to ever do it? Money for nothing? If its for doing nothing why did so many people give her so much fucking money? Do you not know what crowd funding is?
As for the other dude what was he even crowd funding for? To my knowledge you can't use kick starter to pay legal fees it needs to be a creative project so what was he doing? Who is he? When was it proved he was wrongly accused? These two examples are completely uncomparable.
I don't care how much I'm rising to bait, what is this fucking horseshit you fucking fuckhead? Like, I know you're just posting this douchebaggery for attentions, so here it is, I'm paying attention to you: what the fuck is your fucking problem, you fucking stooge?

I think it's hilarious that he thinks it's an actual argument. Oh noes, a entertainment information medium vs a political justice system! But it features a man and a woman, so it must be related! Like the planet Mars and a green banana!

Yup, I kind of regret asking - mostly thanks to that second one. Ah well, live & learn.

| Wikipedia wrote: | In the summer of 2002, Banks was arrested and charged after classmate Wanetta Gibson said that he dragged her into a stairway at Polytechnic High School (Poly) and raped her. Faced with a possible 41 years to life sentence, he accepted a plea deal that included five years in prison, five years of probation, and registering as a sex offender. Wanetta Gibson and her mother Wanda Rhodes sued the Long Beach Unified School District, claiming the Poly campus was not a safe environment, and won a $1.5 million settlement.[12][13] In March 2011, Gibson contacted Banks on Facebook, met with him, and admitted that she had fabricated the story. Banks secretly recorded Gibson's confession, but she refused to tell prosecutors that she had lied so she wouldn't have to return the money she and her family had won in court. Nevertheless, with Gibson's taped admission and help from California Innocence Project attorneys, Los Angeles County prosecutors overturned Banks's conviction on May 24, 2012.[13]
On April 12, 2013, the Long Beach Unified School District announced it was suing Wanetta Gibson for $2 million in an effort to recoup the $1.5 million she received, along with attorney's fees and punitive damages.[14]
Banks now serves as a spokesperson for the California Innocence Project and is working on a documentary about his story.[11] |
Jesus, that's fucking awful, and also has nothing to do with anything. Now just to double check -- what was his kickstarter campaign for? How does his case have any connection whatsoever to Sarkessian? People enjoy what she does enough that they dumb a shitload of money on her to keep doing it? Good for them!

MAN it's hard to argue against this one!
...Honestly you hit me on a weak spot. My favourite animals are owls, ducks and bears.
Welp, here's some awesome grown up owls because really this animal brings the best out of me.

I just looked it up, his accuser came forward and confessed that she had made the whole thing up, and the kickstarter was for making a documentary about his story. Now that it has ended, he's actually raised 47,000 of the 40,000 he wanted. So that picture that Delakando posted is out-of-date and disingenuous. |
