Doug Jones. The name doesn’t ring a bell, does it? Probably not. But I’m here to tell you that this bitch is fabulous.
He started out as a mime and a professional contortionist. He got into acting and has acted in over 25 movies and numerous television shows. Still doesn’t ring any bells? Probably because Doug’s gig is characters and crazy ass costumes and shit.
Here’s a picture of him:
Still not look too familiar? Well, maybe you saw Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer?
Doug Jones.
Or, are you a Buffy fan? Remember the episode “Hush”?
Look familiar now? He’s the one in the front.
Did you like the movie Pan’s Labyrinth?
Doug Jones.
Doug Jones.
Did you like the Hellboy movies?
Doug Jones.
Doug Jones.
Doug Mother Fucking Jones.
Or, hey! Were you born in the 90’s? Remember the movie Hocus Pocus that would play on Disney Channel every halloween? Remember this guy?:
Yup. Doug Jones.
Still not convinced of how badass this guy is? Here’s some awesome for you.
It took him 5 hours to get into the Pale Man costume in Pan’sLabyrinth, and, once in it, he could only just slightly see out of the nose holes, but he was mostly blind.
And the costume for Fauno himself? Well, he could only just barely see out of the nose holes in that one, too. The actual head part was filled with mechanics that made the eyebrows and ears move. And those mechanics were so loud that he couldn’t hear while inside of it, so he had to memorize Ofelia’s lines as well as his own so that he could say them in his head to know when to talk. Oh, and he doesn’t actually speak any Spanish at all, so he was memorizing both his, and someone else’s lines in a language he couldn’t speak.
Doug Mother Fucking Jones.
Werk.
This is once more relevant since Doug Jones is at it again– he’s gonna be the hot fish man in Del Toro’s The Shape of Water.
i’m so ready for doug to fulfill abe sapien fanfic
To say nothing of his role in the new Star Trek series:
People will honestly ask “Does that poor person deserve food?” but never ask “Does that CEO deserve ten cars, three houses, and two yachts?”
And before you respond with “the poor person is buying that food with someone else’s money”, the CEO bought those luxuries with money earned from other people’s hard work.
BRAINS. I swear someday my brain is going to kill me by making me try to toss back Tums like they're regular pills right after I take me night-tme meds.
Back when I played Halo a ton, I once screamed, “I will scatter your fucking teeth in your grandmother’s garden! Maybe new grandchildren will grow! Grandchildren she can be proud of! Grandchildren that don’t slurp major goblin dick at video games!” so, like. Yeah, you unearth some pretty weird, horrible words during HEATED GAMING MOMENTS, but certainly not racial slurs.
Congratulations on being creative because that certainly went somewhere.
If you are an adult on the receiving end of sexual attention from a minor, the only appropriate response is a firm, non-negotiable “no.” Not an “I would, but the darn law…” not, “maybe when you’re eighteen,” a “no.” It is your job as the adult to be responsible, and to not abuse the power differential between you. What the minor wants is irrelevant to your obligations. The only appropriate response is “no.”
People who say bi erasure doesn’t happen need to realize Freddie Mercury is known as the most famous homosexual man when he identified himself as bisexual. If that’s not bi erasure I don’t even know.
Also PoC erasure, most people don’t know he was 100% Indian
Specifically he was Parsi. Also raised Zeroastrian.
this is what we mean when we say proper or professional mental healthcare prioritizes whiteness and that people of color get the shortest end of the stick every time
This is not something exclusive to older therapists, either. So many of the people i encountered in college who were majoring in psych with the goal of providing counseling held these kind of views.
Since November, more than two dozen women - of all ages, but mostly in their twenties - had approached me in restaurants, theaters, and stores to apologize for not voting or for not doing more to help my campaign. I responded with forced smiles and tight nods. On one occasion, an older woman dragged her adult daughter over by the arm to come talk to me and ordered her to apologize for not voting - which she did, head bowed in contrition. I wanted to stare right in her eyes and say ‘You didn’t vote? How could you note vote?! You abdicated your responsibility as a citizen at the worst possible time! And now you want *me* to make *you* feel better?’ Of course I didn’t say any of that. These people were looking for absolution that I just couldn’t give. We all have to live with the consequences of our decisions.
today i learned that “rock lobsters” aren’t just catchy B-52 songs, they are a real and beautiful creature that lives in the ocean
look at this handsome 80s vaporwave animal (wikipedia)
gorgeous. like one of those “animals when filtered through a neural network” pictures, but real. (wikipedia)
according to wikipedia, they are classified as “least concern” conservation status, and it lives mostly in the pacific ocean. it is also edible. captive breeding of the lobster has not been successful due to the complexity of its larval stages (of which there are 11) (that sounds like a lot)
thanks i hope you enjoyed looking at this lobster with me
