  • girl i know i love old boats and they got into accidents all the time and i wouldnt exactly regard an ocean liner as a not horrifying mode of transport but i just remembered we used to have those fucking balloon airships. i dont like planes myself but thank god we started making air transport out of shit that wasnt 100% flammable

  • 3 images of the airship USS Los Angeles being blown by a gust of wind into a completely vertical positionALT

    no offense but some of you should be earning your chippy hike badges instead of whatever it is you're doing on here

  • Item: Badge of the Chippy Hike; allows the wearer to proudly inform the world that they once walked to a nearby chip shop and ate some chips. It’s like those Pilgrim Badges that Medieval travelers would wear

    'why are actors striking aren't they all millionaires' here's a paywall free link to an article that mentions how most of the cast of one of netflix's biggest shows had day jobs bc they couldn't afford rent

  • remember that actors are usually not well off at all. forget the big screen famous guys, they're the very few ones. this strike is for all the other ones, that deserve to have a livable paycheck for their job.

  • And a note to say that, had Orange is the New Black been on a not-streaming network which paid them residuals each time they screened the show the actors would have done fine or better than fine.

    At the start of streaming rules were agreed to let these beginning ways of putting out stories over the web succeed and get established, and letting them not pay actors and writers traditional style residuals was part of what was agreed. They got established. They succeeded. The actors and the writers took the hit.
