wtf?

who?


I just read the plot of this and somehow it gets worse???
the dwarfs are princes under a curse. In order to break the spell, they need a pair of magic red shoes. But currently the red shoes are owned by Snow White, who, get this, has β€œlet herself go” but when she wears the shoes, they show how beautiful she is on the insideβ€”aka thin.
So basically in order for the princes to break the curse, they have to doom Snow White to a life of fatness.why do they hate us so much.


Yikes…



Saw the movie recently and that’s literally not the plot at all
The advertisement group was disgusting af and when the movie came out it was actually nothing like those ads
The princes need to be loved by a β€œbeautiful” woman but what’s beautiful is an opinion.
Snow white loves her size and strength (yeah she lifts!) but her dad goes missing and no man was willing to help her until she ended up in those red shoes. She doesn’t like what the shoes make her into. She just likes finally being helped.
It’s a love story between her and one of the dwarves where He needs to learn to not judge himself or other’s based off appearances 
Spoilers but they get together at the end
He’s a prince again and she stays her cute fat self

So, it was really just a case of really bad marketing

DON’T LET THIS HAPPEN TO CEREAL!!!
Listen in the past the poor have had to improvise cheap food theΒ richΒ never wanted as a means to survive. And over the many years of innovation made the food taste good until eventually the richΒ where like: β€œOh hay you actuallyΒ likeΒ that garbage? Why on earth would you like it?” Then they try it, love it, start buyingΒ it, and then drive the price up so much it becomes a luxuryΒ good.
They do this and its devastating, the food typically never becomesΒ affordable again. It don’t matter how cheap the foo dis to produce, it doesn’t matter if there is almost no meat on the bone or its super difficult to eat and messy. Once the poor discover how to make some bit of cheap food taste good, the rich take it away via driving the price of it up.
THEY DID THIS TO RIBS.
Ribs were garage meat.Β Just look at them, there is hardly any meat on the bone, you have to eat them by hand usually, and they are messy. They where an undesirable cheap sourceΒ of junk meat. But the poor being the poor made them taste good. (Because they don’t have much to choose from.) The rich discovered the meals the poor made with them and decided they liked ribs too. People discovered they could sell a few ribs to rich people and make way more money then selling lots of ribs to poor people and the price was driven up.
DON’T LET THIS HAPPEN TO CEREAL!!!

They did the same to brisket.Β  You used to be able to get brisket for less than a dollar a pound, which meant you could get a twenty pound brisket fairly cheaply.Β  And then you smoked it, sliced it, and had meat for weeks if not a full month.Β  And it was tasty.Β  I grew up eating brisket at least once a month because my family could afford it.
It was a cheap meat because no rich person looks at the dangly part of the neck of a cow and goesΒ β€˜ooh, that looks tasty!’.
But then Food Network started showcasing things like barbecued brisket.Β  Rich people started showing up at places that weren’t just Rib Crib to get their barbeque.Β  And the price of brisket went up.Β  A lot.
I regularly see it for over five dollars a pound in stores now.Β  And while yeah, that might not seem like a lot when you’re talking only a pound or two of meat, brisket is normally sold in ten to twenty pound sizes.Β  It’s become completely unaffordable to the people that made it delicious.
Sushi used to be really cheap, too, until it becameΒ β€˜trendy’.Β  Guess why you’re now paying twelve dollars for your order of California rolls?Β  Because rich people discovered something that poor people had been eating for ages.
Noticed the prices of fajita meat, chicken thighs, or ham hocks has gone up recently?Β  You guessed it.Β  Rich people are taking our food and now we’re scrambling to afford the things that we grew up eating.

Lobster is a perfect example of this phenomenon.Β For hundreds of years, lobster was regarded as a sort of insect larvae from the depth of the sea. It had zero appeal as aΒ β€œluxury food” until people living in NY and Boston developed a taste for it. Before the 19th century, it was considered a β€œpoverty food” or used as fertilizer and bait - some household servants specified in employment agreements that they would not eat lobster more than twice a week.It was also commonly served at prisons, which tells you something about prison food.
Only by cleverly marketing lobster as an indulgence for the privileged made it cost so much. It became a vehicle for enormous profit spawning a multi-billion dollar global industry in the process. This mythical affection for lobster flesh - not its practical value in terms of taste, nutrition, or any other reasonable consideration - drives its value. 



LMAO. Wait.

Welcome to the space age, ladies and gentlemen

This is really quite a big deal. A tremendous amount of modern research ends up being sold to journals which require unreasonable payments to access it and only pay the original authors a pittance. It’s nice to see an agency like NASA deliberately widebanding its findings.

Not sure if people fully realize just how big of a deal this is.

THIS is how science is advanced. Not through biased corporate research, business secrets, marketing, paywalls and patent wars. But through open, uncensored and unrestricted public access to knowledge.

^ There’s the direct link to all the studies.

NASA IS GOOD, NASA IS GREAT

@osunism


NASA is the hero we don’t deserve.


This deserves every reblog.

@geh-is-okeh


In the face of institutions being silenced, this is doubly huge.


I love seeing that, for once, there are more reblogs than likes
Keep passing on this info, guys. Good job

Welcome to the space age, ladies and gentlemen

This is really quite a big deal. A tremendous amount of modern research ends up being sold to journals which require unreasonable payments to access it and only pay the original authors a pittance. It’s nice to see an agency like NASA deliberately widebanding its findings.

Gen Y is Millenials…

No it isn’t, this is gen Y erasure. Marketing companies just realized millennials was a buzzword and got more clicks from boomers and millennials so they expanded what a millennial was to piss off more people. Nobody knows what a fucking millennial is anymore some scales have 40 year old gen Xers included as millennials. Then you have boomers calling everyone from Gen Y to Gen Z millennials because they think anyone under 40 is a millennial. The internet was a new thing and a novelty for Gen Y a lot of kids didn’t even have internet for most of their childhoods you can’t group them in culturally with people raised on the internet. Gen Y has as much in common with Gen X as they do with millennials.Β If Gen Y isn’t real why did we go from X to Z? And why are millennials called millennials if not because they were born around the new millennium in 2000?

As I understand it millennial just means they came of age around the turn of the millennium, not that they were born in 2000. I’m pretty sure gen Y and millennial are the same thing.οΏΌ Gen X is like 70s and 80s babies and Gen Y/Millennial οΏΌis late 80s/early 90s babies.οΏΌοΏΌ: Boomers Millennials

The Stock market, as well as the overall economy, moves between a boom and bust cycle - it basically moves between growth and value investing - it is that simple!
After a recession, when the whole stock market cycle, the business cycle and the credit cycle have gone bust:Β  interest rates are low to super low, the Fed is trying to stimulate the economy - Investors start to look at Growth Stocks/ Growth-Oriented Mutual Funds (a growth stock is one that generally averages about 20% growth per year along with the technology sectors like semiconductors and Biotech/Pharmaceuticals)….. Small Cap stocks/Mutual Funds also take off - money is cheap to borrow to fund R&D, marketing expenses, etc. 
But Value stocks/Mutual Funds also start to rise:Β  A RISING TIDE LIFTS ALL BOATS - was the 90β€²s moniker!
Hence, the market starts to take off:Β  as markets start to heat up and the economy starts to OVERHEAT - the Fed starts to raise interests to COOL the market down - like in November 1999 - the Fed had raised the Federal Funds rate way up to a whopping 6.5% to try and cool down the economy and to put a damper on the Dot.com Boom - fueled stock market!Β  
Those who forget history do not recall that the yield curve inverted in 1998; the Federal Funds rate was too high in 1999 (FYI side note:Β  the β€œaverage” technology mutual fund in 1999 was up 100%!!!!!!!!!!!! by years’ end)Β  Guess what?Β  The whole market crashed in April 2000!
So from that time to about mid-June 2000 - the market went nowhere!Β Β  Value investing and investing in Bonds (like Intermediate and Long-term Treasury Bonds (backed by the full faith of the US government) went up from June 2000 to December 2000 (Berkshire Hathaway A shares went up over 85% that year within 6 months!).Β  Warren Buffet?Β  Look him up!Β  Treasuries also did extremely well - like one β€œTalking Head” has been quoted as saying - β€œThere is always a Bull Market somewhere”……
And the whole process starts over again from a boom to bust cycle, about every 10 years or so……the Real Estate Market moves in a boom to bust cycle about every 7 years….
MY OPINION – stay the course with Value-oriented Investing:Β  it works in both up and down markets!Β  A mix of Value Mutual Funds and Treasury Bond Mutual Funds weather ALL storms - OVER THE LONG HAUL - and yes, expect a few hiccups along the way too LOL!)….Exchange Traded Funds (ETF’s) investing will work too - but, I like Mutual Funds - the minimums are $3,000.00 however (at least) to start investing in a SINGLE fund.Β  DO YOUR RESEARCH/DUE DILIGENCE ON THE WEB and also on YOU TUBE!
Guys - the overall stock market climbs in a stair-step fashion:Β  up, then sideways/down and then up again!Β  Invest for the long term (like 30-50+ years)….YOU WILL BE A WINNER!Β  Be it an investment account or a retirement account or BOTH:Β  like a personal investment account and a ROTH IRA or an employer-sponsored 401k Plan along with a personal investment account.
Dollar-Cost Average your contributions to personal investment/ROTH accounts; that is invest the same $ amount each and every month - regardless, whether the market is up or down!Β  Ignore the noise!Β  Ignore the Talking Heads”.
CURRENT MARKET :Β  MY OPINION
Me personally, I am accumulating cash and letting my current investment portfolio just ride along with this geo-politically fueled/baseless rate cut economic environment …Impeachment talks, China Trade War escalation, Iran concerns, Saudi Arabia bombings, Japan-South Korea tensions as well as renewed North Korea tension over prior failed talks, the American Farmers plight due to the trade war, negative return/yield rates on European Bonds, Brexit concerns, a dollar that is too strong, etc.
When American companies start to cut back, lay people off, these people can not keep spending to keep GDP/the economy growing, then these people can not pay their mortgages/auto loans/credit cards….Will it beΒ β€œsomewhat” similar to 2008… all over again? 
I have no professional opinion nor do I have a crystal ball – Maybe the FED will engineer a β€œSOFT” Landing”…..this time: they never did in the past when β€œBubbles” Greenspan or β€œHelicopter Ben” Bernake were FEDERAL RESERVE CHAIRMEN.

The Stock market, as well as the overall economy, moves between a boom and bust cycle - it basically moves between growth and value investing - it is that simple!
After a recession, when the whole stock market cycle, the business cycle and the credit cycle have gone bust:Β  interest rates are low to super low, the Fed is trying to stimulate the economy - Investors start to look at Growth Stocks/ Growth-Oriented Mutual Funds (a growth stock is one that generally averages about 20% growth per year along with the technology sectors like semiconductors and Biotech/Pharmaceuticals)….. Small Cap stocks/Mutual Funds also take off - money is cheap to borrow to fund R&D, marketing expenses, etc. 
But Value stocks/Mutual Funds also start to rise:Β  A RISING TIDE LIFTS ALL BOATS - was the 90β€²s moniker!
Hence, the market starts to take off:Β  as markets start to heat up and the economy starts to OVERHEAT - the Fed starts to raise interests to COOL the market down - like in November 1999 - the Fed had raised the Federal Funds rate way up to a whopping 6.5% to try and cool down the economy and to put a damper on the Dot.com Boom - fueled stock market!Β  
Those who forget history do not recall that the yield curve inverted in 1998; the Federal Funds rate was too high in 1999 (FYI side note:Β  the β€œaverage” technology mutual fund in 1999 was up 100%!!!!!!!!!!!! by years’ end)Β  Guess what?Β  The whole market crashed in April 2000!
So from that time to about mid-June 2000 - the market went nowhere!Β Β  Value investing and investing in Bonds (like Intermediate and Long-term Treasury Bonds (backed by the full faith of the US government) went up from June 2000 to December 2000 (Berkshire Hathaway A shares went up over 85% that year within 6 months!).Β  Warren Buffet?Β  Look him up!Β  Treasuries also did extremely well - like one β€œTalking Head” has been quoted as saying - β€œThere is always a Bull Market somewhere”……
And the whole process starts over again from a boom to bust cycle, about every 10 years or so……the Real Estate Market moves in a boom to bust cycle about every 7 years….
MY OPINION – stay the course with Value-oriented Investing:Β  it works in both up and down markets!Β  A mix of Value Mutual Funds and Treasury Bond Mutual Funds weather ALL storms - OVER THE LONG HAUL - and yes, expect a few hiccups along the way too LOL!)….Exchange Traded Funds (ETF’s) investing will work too - but, I like Mutual Funds - the minimums are $3,000.00 however (at least) to start investing in a SINGLE fund.Β  DO YOUR RESEARCH/DUE DILIGENCE ON THE WEB and also on YOU TUBE!
Guys - the overall stock market climbs in a stair-step fashion:Β  up, then sideways/down and then up again!Β  Invest for the long term (like 30-50+ years)….YOU WILL BE A WINNER!Β  Be it an investment account or a retirement account or BOTH:Β  like a personal investment account and a ROTH IRA or an employer-sponsored 401k Plan along with a personal investment account.
Dollar-Cost Average your contributions to personal investment/ROTH accounts; that is invest the same $ amount each and every month - regardless, whether the market is up or down!Β  Ignore the noise!Β  Ignore the Talking Heads”.
CURRENT MARKET :Β  MY OPINION
Me personally, I am accumulating cash and letting my current investment portfolio just ride along with this geo-politically fueled/baseless rate cut economic environment …Impeachment talks, China Trade War escalation, Iran concerns, Saudi Arabia bombings, Japan-South Korea tensions as well as renewed North Korea tension over prior failed talks, the American Farmers plight due to the trade war, negative return/yield rates on European Bonds, Brexit concerns, a dollar that is too strong, etc.
When American companies start to cut back, lay people off, these people can not keep spending to keep GDP/the economy growing, then these people can not pay their mortgages/auto loans/credit cards….Will it beΒ β€œsomewhat” similar to 2008… all over again? 
I have no professional opinion nor do I have a crystal ball – Maybe the FED will engineer a β€œSOFT” Landing”…..this time: they never did in the past when β€œBubbles” Greenspan or β€œHelicopter Ben” Bernake were FEDERAL RESERVE CHAIRMEN.

MY OPINION – stay the course with Value-oriented Investing:Β  it works in both up and down markets!Β  A mix of Value Mutual Funds and Treasury Bond Mutual Funds weather ALL storms - OVER THE LONG HAUL - and yes, expect a few hiccups along the way too LOL!)….Exchange Traded Funds (ETF’s) investing will work too - but, I like Mutual Funds - the minimums are $3,000.00 however (at least) to start investing in a SINGLE fund.Β  DO YOUR RESEARCH/DUE DILIGENCE ON THE WEB and also on YOU TUBE!
Guys - the overall stock market climbs in a stair-step fashion:Β  up, then sideways/down and then up again!Β  Invest for the long term (like 30-50+ years)….YOU WILL BE A WINNER!Β  Be it an investment account or a retirement account or BOTH:Β  like a personal investment account and a ROTH IRA or an employer-sponsored 401k Plan along with a personal investment account.
Dollar-Cost Average your contributions to personal investment/ROTH accounts; that is invest the same $ amount each and every month - regardless, whether the market is up or down!Β  Ignore the noise!Β  Ignore the Talking Heads”.
CURRENT MARKET :Β  MY OPINION
Me personally, I am accumulating cash and letting my current investment portfolio just ride along with this geo-politically fueled/baseless rate cut economic environment …Impeachment talks, China Trade War escalation, Iran concerns, Saudi Arabia bombings, Japan-South Korea tensions as well as renewed North Korea tension over prior failed talks, the American Farmers plight due to the trade war, negative return/yield rates on European Bonds, Brexit concerns, a dollar that is too strong, etc.
When American companies start to cut back, lay people off, these people can not keep spending to keep GDP/the economy growing, then these people can not pay their mortgages/auto loans/credit cards….Will it beΒ β€œsomewhat” similar to 2008… all over again? 
I have no professional opinion nor do I have a crystal ball – Maybe the FED will engineer a β€œSOFT” Landing”…..this time: they never did in the past when β€œBubbles” Greenspan or β€œHelicopter Ben” Bernake were FEDERAL RESERVE CHAIRMEN.

The Stock market, as well as the overall economy, moves between a boom and bust cycle - it basically moves between growth and value investing - it is that simple!
After a recession, when the whole stock market cycle, the business cycle and the credit cycle have gone bust:Β  interest rates are low to super low, the Fed is trying to stimulate the economy - Investors start to look at Growth Stocks/ Growth-Oriented Mutual Funds (a growth stock is one that generally averages about 20% growth per year along with the technology sectors like semiconductors and Biotech/Pharmaceuticals)….. Small Cap stocks/Mutual Funds also take off - money is cheap to borrow to fund R&D, marketing expenses, etc. 
But Value stocks/Mutual Funds also start to rise:Β  A RISING TIDE LIFTS ALL BOATS - was the 90β€²s moniker!
Hence, the market starts to take off:Β  as markets start to heat up and the economy starts to OVERHEAT - the Fed starts to raise interests to COOL the market down - like in November 1999 - the Fed had raised the Federal Funds rate way up to a whopping 6.5% to try and cool down the economy and to put a damper on the Dot.com Boom - fueled stock market!Β  
Those who forget history do not recall that the yield curve inverted in 1998; the Federal Funds rate was too high in 1999 (FYI side note:Β  the β€œaverage” technology mutual fund in 1999 was up 100%!!!!!!!!!!!! by years’ end)Β  Guess what?Β  The whole market crashed in April 2000!
So from that time to about mid-June 2000 - the market went nowhere!Β Β  Value investing and investing in Bonds (like Intermediate and Long-term Treasury Bonds (backed by the full faith of the US government) went up from June 2000 to December 2000 (Berkshire Hathaway A shares went up over 85% that year within 6 months!).Β  Warren Buffet?Β  Look him up!Β  Treasuries also did extremely well - like one β€œTalking Head” has been quoted as saying - β€œThere is always a Bull Market somewhere”……

Welcome to the space age, ladies and gentlemen

This is really quite a big deal. A tremendous amount of modern research ends up being sold to journals which require unreasonable payments to access it and only pay the original authors a pittance. It’s nice to see an agency like NASA deliberately widebanding its findings.

Not sure if people fully realize just how big of a deal this is.

THIS is how science is advanced. Not through biased corporate research, business secrets, marketing, paywalls and patent wars. But through open, uncensored and unrestricted public access to knowledge.
