Everything Ford Fans Should Know About The Model A - Ron King @SlashGear
Ford produced about 15 million Model Ts in the 19 years between 1908 and mid-1927 before introducing the upscaled Model A to the world on December 2, 1927. It took several months to switch tooling from the Model T to production of the Model A at the Rogue, Ford’s Dearborn, Michigan, factory. If it seems odd that the Model A came after the Model T in Ford’s automobile naming timeline, there’s a…

every time I read about this Disney vs DeSantis thing and the bit about how the agreement doesn't end “until 21 years after the death of the last survivor of the descendants of King Charles III, king of England" all I can think about is some bumbling caper where the Florida government repeatedly tries to assassinate the entire royal family just to spite Disney

I love Ice King being the token straight in his fruity ass wizard friend group. Like all of these dudes are so obviously gay and then you have their bestie Ice King, a guy so painfully straight his heterosexuality causes problems for nearly every woman he interracts with.

It baffles me that many people Hate Ron. Idk where you guys are coming from? I don’t see this much hate to a character who willingly sacrifices himself for his friends be made a bad guy in any other books (franchise, movies, etc.) And people love the bully, the weak willed, coward ferret. And in the stories they make, they turn Draco into a rich Ron.
Is this hate coming because the guy is poor? Because he got the girl? Idk. Please enlighten me. Why people want the person who wished a character death be with him. While every sacrifice Ron has made has been criticised. I saw a post where it said Ron impersued Hermione… what kind of stupid nonsense is that? And that Weasley’s wanted harry because of his fame and money. I’ve read HP, I’ve never seen them asking Harry for money in any way, what are y’all reading?

Harry had always craved physical affection, ever since he was a lonely child living under the stairs. He had never felt the warmth of a hug, or the comfort of a hand, or the tenderness of a kiss. He had always felt cold and alone, until he met Ron.
Tumblr media
Ron was the first person who made Harry feel loved. He was the first person who stood by Harry's side, no matter what. He was the first person who made Harry laugh, and smile, and hope. He was the first person who made Harry feel alive.
Tumblr media
Harry's love language is cuddling, and the only person who he wants to cuddle is Ron. He loves the feeling of Ron's arms around him, holding him close and tight. He loves the feeling of Ron's chest against his, rising and falling with each breath. He loves the feeling of Ron's lips on his, kissing him softly and sweetly. He loves the feeling of Ron's heart beating in sync with his, telling him that they are one.
Tumblr media
Harry feels secure and happy when he cuddles with Ron. He feels that nothing could hurt him, scare him, or break him. He feels that he has everything he needs, wants, and dreams of. He feels that he has found his home.

So while watching Godzilla x Kong I heard voices in my head for the Kaiju despite them not talking and here’s what they sound like
Kong: Ron Perlman. I think it’s because Ron Perlman was Optimus Primal in ROTB despite not being used much. But Kong sounds like him.
Godzilla: Keith David. He sounds like Spawn Keith David. Once he saw Kong in Egypt the line “I warned you, you fat piece of shit” rung out in my head.
Suko: Whoever voices Mikayla Van Buren in MPGIS. I saw him and thought “Jesus Christ is that a fucking gremlin ?!?” and he looks like the type to respond “No I’m a third grader !” just don’t feed that fucking thing after midnight
Mothra: Whoever voiced Ponyo’s mom. Mothra just had that beautiful goddess energy Ponyo’s mom had and when she smacked that wind towards Godzilla it was almost like she was telling him to calm himself. In a harsh yet gentle way. And it could work for both English and Japanese voices too.
Skar King: Brad Garrett when he’s doing his Lobo voice because when he voices Lobo his voice is prime asshole voice and I love it.
