I had to go and delete it myself this morning.

Y'all practical effects bitches are really sleeping on the Mission: Impossible movies.

"Oh everything is CGI these days!" Mission: Impossible uses practical effects whenever it's safe to do so, and their definition of safe is incredibly skewed because Tom Cruise is, frankly, batshit insane.

The man refuses to use stunt doubles because he insists the audience can tell when it's not him. He's apparently one of the best stunt drivers in the world. He drove up a cliff and skidded to a stop right on the edge for real in Dead Reckoning. He got a fucking helicopter license and spent like three years training for the climactic scene in Fallout.

Most of the helicopter chase in Fallout was real. The midair oxygen-tank swap in that movie was also real. They practiced for it in a wind tunnel and then did the real thing in freefall.

When Tom Cruise dies, it's either going to be because he realized Scientology was a crock and tried to get out and they fucking killed him (highly unlikely that he'll ever come to that realization), or because his luck finally ran out while filming a stunt for a Mission: Impossible movie (significantly more likely).

Seriously, if you have the blu-rays of any of these movies, I strongly encourage you to watch them with the director's commentaries. Especially the ones directed by Christopher McQuarrie. That man has an almost pathological distaste for CGI (and when they do have to use it, he's incredibly respectful and complimentary of the people who do the special effects).

Do yourself a favor and watch these movies. They're not just kitschy action flicks. They're kitschy action flicks with a metric fuckton of practical effects, and a production team that really cares about the stories they're crafting.

society's infantilization of decorated objects is honestly one of the greatest recent crimes against humans' innate desire for beauty

Hello everybody! I recently became an auntie! I am trying to compile a list of good children's TV shows and movies, and I would really appreciate some recommendations! What did you watch and like as a kid or an adult? Let me know in the comments or tags. Thanks so much! 😊

Do you ever think about how crazy nursing really is?

And I don’t mean in the we deal with crazy people aspect, but more so how huge and ever increasing our scope is and how it has literally evolved so much even in the past 40 years. It’s literally insane when you think about it. The same license that allows you to take care of kids in a pediatrics office is the same one that allows a different nurse to independently insert PICC lines, and even still allow the critical care nurse to manage ECMO. Some of these nurses are doing it with a diploma or associates degree. Some nurses are anesthesia providers or primary care providers even still. Now obviously each specialty and advanced practice requires specific training or additional education, but the basis for all of these different avenues is the same RN license, and when you think about it, it honestly sounds literally so crazy. I would honestly love to sit down with older nurses or former nurses to see their views on how the profession has evolved, where it is currently, and where they think it’ll go. Like this is a crazy profession y’all. Never feel like you are “just a nurse” because it’s honestly one of the most badass professions out there.

He's my brown eyed girlfriend 💖

If I’m being honest. If I’m being very very real right now. I wanna announce that I have an addition to the category of men who would treat me so good:

look at him. He’s the sweetest gentlest mans in the history of earth. Long hair beard Kiefoo smoking a PIPE?! What the fuck!!!

And then he’s fictional? fuck you. I’m pretty sure it’s illegal to make me want him this much and then just not be real?

Look he’d be SO good for me. I’d have severe anxiety and just one look at that cute face would calm me right down.

Poet Young Guns Esque. Love that. He’s brave and loyal and kind of quick to judge but when he’s wrong he owns up to it. Perfect man.

just sign me up for whatever time period they’re in. I wanna universe travel to him and we could live so happily every afterly

My man!!!!!! >:(
