To be clear, THIS is how nights of the future should be lit

This is bat friendly street lighting, which not only looks sick as fuck but allows bats to pass through without disturbance, as they cannot see red.

orange and especially white lights deter bats and prevent them from reaching feeding grounds at nighttime. Please if you can, write to your local council and encourage red street lights!!!!

About Lan apologizing to Moiraine after Everything:

"I'm sorry it took me so long to do my duty."

I don't think this is Lan - or the show - saying that Lan was the one in the wrong, after how Moiraine treated him so badly.

I think it's very clear from the show (and as other ppl's metas have pointed out) that Lan and Moiraine both know EXACTLY what she is doing: she's trying to push Lan away because she is in pain

(Ofc, Lan might well not know that this is also her trying to keep him safe, but he also might.)

Instead, I think it was him…making a point of reclaiming his role as her warder, so to speak. It was him saying "I know you tried to break what is between us, but I will not let you."

It was him saying, "I wish I had figured out how to help you sooner."

It was him saying, "The time for conflict between us is past, because the Dragon Reborn is here, and it is time for both of us to do our duty."

It was him saying, "I am your warder, and I am done failing to protect you."

It was him saying, "I am in this fight alongside you, and you are not going to leave me behind again."

It was him saying, "I don't care what happened to us, these past months. My place is besides yours."

if ur dealing to the people on the left you’d just say “$45 a gram” and theyd be like “yeah bro sure dude i gotchu thats legitness ur the man” but the ppl on the right u gotta finesse like “my normal price is $15 a g but this stuff is called Cosmic Throat Cum Squirt Haze so the lowest i can go is $50″ and theyd b like “wow… so cultured… i cant wait to smoke this out of my native american themed bong…”

I like how the consensus on this site was that despite being a constant dumpster fire of failure, the one thing the admins were able to successfully figure out was an international espionage ring orchestrated from the kremlin as opposed to thinking maybe, just maybe, they banned a bunch of funny black people because hillary ate shit in 2016

[soothsaying]

uhhhhh no this really happened and it was not a conspiracy to ban a bunch of funny black people, unless you mean the fake black people the troll accounts posed (source: npr) as

[trueconfessionsofacurvygirl]

It’s really fucking weird that people are pretending this didn’t happen.

I can specifically speak about lagonegirl as I was a follower. They never spoke to their followers. Their posts all had a similar format to Vox posts at the time. They would leave a written funny comment on their posts turns out those were taken from Twitter users and written out like it was their own words. The many popular Black tumblr users rebloged the posts and added more funny comments and post would get widely shared.

I’m starting to wonder if this is a new Russian scam. Get people to belief it didn’t happen so they can do it again.

[mikkeneko]

having sorted through the replies on this post, there are two camps:

1. people saying yes, russian psyops on social media accounts were totally a thing. they copied real content (which could be traced back to their original sources) but edited and modified in ways that helped them shape the conversation in the direction that served their purpose.  source: here are 5 sources documenting it

2. people saying no, russian psyops was never a thing.  uhhhh, duh! pfff, you believed that? cringe. OBVIOUSly fake. 

[thirtyknives]

I gotta add they were on *all* the damn socials, it’s just that Tumblr hoards its old junk whereas all the others only want new content front and centre. If we didn’t sift through our ashes so much we’d have forgotten, too.

[jellyfishdirigible]

Oh yeah I forgot to add before this fell out of the queue, obviously no one thinks staff figured that out on their own. It was a massive international intelligence operation that also included facebook, reddit, twitter, instagram, youtube, buzzfeed somehow, and teams of competent professional intelligence analysts.

Afterwards the inquiry concluded that the russian trolls (of whom several were in fact indicted) specifically targeted Black voters to divide and undermine their vote

Russian trolls' chief target was 'black US voters' in 2016

A Senate intelligence report says no other group was more targeted in the 2016 election.
