Pacific Rim was great because they showed the government representatives for like two seconds and then the rest of the movie was about the common people becoming extraordinary in the face of extinction.
Selfish rich people build walls to keep the world out, but the ones with the courage to go out there to fight, reclaim and perish for their lands are the orphans who lost everything to war, the fathers that want their children to have a future, the kids that want their parents to get old, the soldiers that won't abandon the people and would disobey any orders demanding them to do so, the lovers who would rather die fighting beside each other, the siblings who won't dishonor their home, the weirdos, the outcasts, the has-beens, the broken, the obsessed. The ones who know that the planet and its people are worth dying for and are not afraid to lose all they have to keep humanity safe.
Pacific Rim completely erases the ones in power in favor of bowing to the courage of the people in the streets...

Anonymous asked:
I'm a janitor at the HK shatterdome and certain two german scientists should either fuck or finally kill each other at this point, I don't care. They're always in the lab no matter the time of day so I can't avoid them and so they try to get me (the janitor) to choose sides in their domestics!! I refuse to step in that lab again and involve myself in whatever the fuck they've got going on. They'll just have to clean that shit themselves
#this is the third confession about these scientists this week are you guys okay

You are right. The kaiju are here to bring us to justice, there's no sense in fighting them. If you also feel like this, you can find out more on my blog ❤

"I think Pacific Rim is unrealistic now because instead of everyone banding together to defeat COVID, the governments just gave up and abandoned everybody-"
Are you kidding me? Pacific Rim 100% predicted this kind of thing. That's literally what the Pacific Perimeter Program was about. Once the PPDC decided fighting kaiju was too expensive, they just gave up and chose to ignore the problem by putting it behind a big wall. Pacific Rim is literally about the people who were abandoned by the institutions that were supposed to protect them and kept on trying anyway.

Demonstrators and artists have taken the steps of the met museum unfurling an ENORMOUS (30 x 50 foot) quilt created by artists around the world in solidarity with Palestine.
Tumblr media
The quilt was collectively created by 64 artists from around the world and shipped to New York City.
They're demanding the met museum:
(1) cut ties with board members profiting from Israeli bombardment + occupation of Palestine
(2) support an immediate + permanent ceasefire
(3) aid the preservation of Palestinian cultural heritage sites being destroyed by Israel
Tumblr media
In addition to the quilt, demonstrators reclaimed and redistributed Met flyers, stickered with movement messaging and demands.

Links to Pacific Rim creator Travis Beacham's own posts on drift compatibility and drifting
Drift compatibility is psychological, not genetic
The better you know someone, the more likely you are to be drift compatible
Drift compatibility is potential, not fate
Drift compatibility can be a choice
Friendship is the foundation of drift compatibility
The drift requires trust
Trust is fundamental; also drift compatibility can be determined with anything that tests how well you can anticipate each others' moves
That even includes multiplayer video games
Many cadets wash out during Pons training when secrets come out in the drift and shatter their relationships
A lot of pilots get messed up by flinching over sexual thoughts
Trying to avoid thoughts just makes them worse
Not everything you see in the drift is always real; also the way to deal with thoughts is just let them flow by
Pilots communicate through "headspace"
Illustration of a conversation in headspace
First drifts can be very confusing, because partners don't understand each others' minds very well yet
The drift exposes pilots to each others' raw, unfiltered thoughts
Raleigh knew what Yancy was going to say
The drift doesn't let you read your partner's mind like a database, and you may not necessarily understand what you see. Also when Pentecost says he carries nothing into the drift he means he's calm and stable.
Pentecost gained this calmness through meditation
Trying to block your partner from your mind will make you lose control of the Jaeger
Pilots who fall below 90% sync will be in trouble
General information plus info on RABITs
You can chase your partner's RABIT
Another post confirming you can chase your partner's RABIT
More RABIT info
More general information
Travis Beacham defines ghost drifting
Partners' personalities can rub off on each other
Neural overload doesn't hit you all at once; it accumulates
The time a pilot can go solo varies, and it's a steep curve from fine to dead
More info on solo piloting
Being high in the drift probably makes it harder to avoid chasing the RABIT

Let’s stop for a moment and acknowledge how amazingly talented this young lady is.
This is Mana Ashida who played young Mako Mori in Pacific Rim and, acting against a green screen, actually came across as genuinely terrified because of the situation she was in and holy shit wow.
And here is a picture of her sitting on Guillermo del Toro’s shoulder:

Free Palestine - ceasefire now!
There is currently a strike for Palestine taking place from February 18th, 2024, to February 25th, 2024. During this time, I will only be posting about Palestine on this account and doing what I can to spread awareness. If you are able, I highly recommend participating in the strike in whatever way you are able - something is always better than nothing. Staying home from work and/or school, not buying anything that isn't strictly necessary, using your social media platforms only to boost posts about Palestine, etc., are all ways to help the efforts!
Below are various links for ways you can help Palestine, including educational resources, petitions, fundraisers, etc. If you have any to add on, please do, these are just the ones I've found so far.
Palestine Red Crescent Society
Palestine Children's Relief Fund
eSims For Gaza
Decolonize Palestine (Patreon)
Jewish Voice For Peace
Standing Together
Islamic Relief Canada's Palestine Emergency Appeal
Medical Aid For Palestinians
Gisha (Israeli organization working to protect Palestinians' rights to the freedom of movement)
Click to help Palestine daily
Palestine Action
Attend an upcoming protest for Palestine (remember to mask up if possible, COVID isn't over)
Sign a petition to urge governments to invoke the genocide convention to stop the war on Gaza
Sign a petition from Amnesty calling for a ceasefire
Check this list of ways to demand a ceasefire in Gaza
Sign the petition for Canada to take urgent action for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza
Download these posters to print out and put up in your area and/or share on socials to build awareness
Join the BDS boycott
Check out resources and ways to help from Justice For All
Donate to the Gofundme for medical expenses for Hisham, a Palestinian-Irish-American who was shot in an anti-Palestinian hate crime in Burlington, Vermont
The Palestine Academy's Palestine 101
Palestinian literature recommendations
Check out Independent Jewish Voices Canada and their campaigns to help Palestine
Join Palestine Action to help bring down Israel's weapons trade
Shop Palestine (online store where your purchases support artisans in Palestine and in refugee camps in Lebanon, proceeds go to Middle East Children’s Alliance's work supporting Palestinian children)
Donate direct aid to Gaza (run by a longtime activist and volunteer who has been carrying out donations and humanitarian projects in Gaza since 2021)
Buy from the Hirbawi factory (this is the last kufiya factory in Palestine that is still active, purchasing helps support the Palestinian economy, which has not been in a great state for a while)
Spreadsheet listing mutual aid
