Corporate ‘responsibility’ is put on display in this fine segment from John Oliver.

 

 

Funny things found on tumblr. :)

  • spanish and italian: So THESE words are feminine and THESE words are masculine, and you ALWAYS put an adjective AFTER the noun.
  • french: haha i dont fuckin know man just do whatever
  • german: LET’S ADD A NEUTRAL NOUN HAHA
  • english: *shooting up in the bathroom*
  • gaelic: the pronunciation changes depending on the gender and what letter the word starts and ends with and hahah i dont even know good fucking luck
  • polish: here have all of these consonants have fun
  • japanese: subject article noun article verb. too bad there’s three fucking alphabets lmao hope your first language isn’t western
  • welsh: sneeze, and chances are you’ve got it right. idfk
  • chinese: here’s a picture. draw it. it means something. it can be pronounced four different ways. these twenty other pictures are pronounced the same but have very different meanings. godspeed.
  • arabic: so here’s this one word. it actually translates to three words. also pronouns don’t really exist. the gender is all in the verb. have fun!
  • latin: here memorize 500 charts and then you still dont know what the fuck is happening
  • sign language: If you move this sign by a tenth of an inch, you’ll be signing “penis”
  • russian: idk man its pronounced like its spelt but good fucking luck spelling it
  • Greek: so basically we’re going to add 15 syllables to every word you know and assign it one of 3 genders at random. Also good luck figuring out where to put the accents you piece of shit

Arb gave Shadow a bath the other day, and she got all shiny and silky and pretty!

She wasn’t sure about this whole “posing for pictures” thing

She was much happier once the ordeal was over

 

A troubling situation for women around the world.  No thanks to religion. :P  Go here for a bigger version, thank you NeuroNotes.

V in the evening sun

Ludwig van Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 7 in D major, Op. 10, No. 3, was dedicated to the Countess Anne Margarete von Browne, and written in 1798. This makes it contemporary with his three string trios of opus 9, the violin sonatas of opus 12 and the violin romance that became his opus 50 when later published. (The year also saw the premiere of a revised version of his second piano concerto, whose original form had been written and heard in 1795.[1])

It is divided into four movements:

  1. Presto – cut time
  2. Largo e mesto – 6/8 in D minor
  3. Menuetto: Allegro – 3/4 in D major – G major – D major
  4. Rondo: Allegro – common time
