if you were previously homophobic but realize you were wrong: that’s ok, u are learning
if you are struggling with internalized misogyny: that’s ok too, keep fighting to overcome the sexism that society perpetuates
if you were accidentally trans phobic but are fixing it: great, we need everyone on our side
if at any point u were wrong and are trying to fix it: we accept you and we were all there. keep working to be a good person

Honestly, Rick Rolling is the best practical joke ever. Like, there’s nothing offensive or mean  spirited about it. It’s just like “Oops you thought there would be something else here but it’s ‘Never Gonna Give You Up’.” which isn’t even a bad song. It’s fairly enjoyable to listen to. There’s no jumpscares, no screaming, no ill will. Just Rick Astley telling you he’s never going to give you up. I think that’s great. “You fell into my trap! Here, listen to this completely benign song that will have no negative effect on you.” 

I wish this were true. There’s a really good article about the problems inherent with rickrolling here.

Americans: we’re gonna use Fahrenheit where 0 degrees is really cold and 100 degrees is really hot so 40-60 degrees is okay weather. It’s just like we’re counting up from 0 to 100 and the closer we get to 100 the warmer/hotter the weather.  

Rest of the world: wtf??? Americans are so dumb that makes no sense??? 0 degrees is okay weather and 100 degrees means you’re dead!! Dumb Americans with their counting up from 0 method how ignorant and stupid they all are lets constantly post about it

interesting note: the fahrenheit system IS probably the best system of temperature measurement to use for weather, because (as it says in the above post) the scale is basically 0 = really cold and 100 = really hot. so, the fahrenheit scale is based around how humans feel the temperature.

celsius, in contrast, is based around how WATER reacts to temperature. 0C is the freezing point of water, and 100C is the boiling point of water. it would be useful to use celsius on ovens and stoves, and in refrigerators/freezers but it’s not really optimized to measure outside temperature when talking about weather.

neither is kelvin. don’t measure the outside temp in kelvin.

Fahrenheit: people

Celsius: water

Kelvin: nerds
