I think a lot of people assume in their heads that Europe is further south than it is because it’s so warm there in comparison to say, Siberia or northern Canada.
Well why is Europe so warm then? I’m glad you asked. They get all the hot wind.
And you may reasonably ask, is this hot air coming from the central Atlantic or from the mouths of European politicians? Like most things it’s a combination of different… but no yeah it’s just warm air currents from down south in the tropics
This also shows why a relatively mild heat in California or Texas might cause drought and heat-stroke in places like England or Denmark, because those areas are used to Northern-Canada levels of heat
I think the thing that affected me most when moving across the ocean is the strange high light in Northern Europe. The sky is a different color, and the winters are just slightly darker and drawn-in.
Random story of the day:
Mapmakers often put secrets in their maps as copyright traps, to make sure no one copies their maps. For example, some map makers put fake streets in maps, sometimes fake features. If they see a map that has that street, they know it was copied from them.
Similarly, in 2005, the New Oxford American Dictionary published a new word: Esquivalience, meaning “Willful avoidance of one’s official responsibilities”. It was a made up word, a copyright trap to make sure no other dictionaries copied them. If anyone copied their dictionary, the stealer wouldn’t be able to come up with a source except for the New Oxford. (Dictionary.com fell for this trap)
Another example of a copyright trap was when the author of The Trivia Encyclopedia put a false fact in his book, because he was certain that the makers of the game Trivial Pursuit were taking his facts for the game. (The false fact was that “TV detective Columbo’s first name was Phillip” when the show never specified his name. Sure enough, the ‘fact’ showed up in Trivial Pursuit.

This was everything. It’s amazing how skewed your opinion is if you never have to face the facts. There’s a question early in the documentary that is really vital. An Asian man (he never specifies nationality nor ethnicity) mentions that he can never wake up without thinking about stereotypes placed on him and then a white guy turns around and asks him if that’s at the front of his mind everyday. I love his answer. Simple and effective.

February 13, 2013 - the day Canada’s Parliament debated the zombie apocalypse. (x)
Canada, the only nation discussing the most important issues of our day.
See? Canada has a zombie plan and so should you!
i want to emphasize that this is not from a comedy movie, it literally happened, like in real life, in parliament, between real people
I love how everyone else in the back are just cracking up!
If I ever don’t reblog this, assume Canada was taken.
what the fuck canada
The racist stereotypes littered throughout the Harry Potter franchise including the grotesquely anti-semitic goblin’s foreshadowed JK. Rowling’s later bigotry on twitter
I hear straights use stereotypes like "gays are dramatic" and right before I argue with them about that, I remember this clip from RuPaul's Drag Race

Why do Black Men hate darkskinned Black Women so much?
Don’t even try to play these off as “jokes”. These are real racially charged stereotypes that are projected onto Black Women, this dehumanizing. Why do people think insulting Black Women is funny? Insult anyone else and it’s rude, aim it at a Black Woman and suddenly you’re Kevin Hart.
Yet again, the only people who care about Black Women are Black Women.
