Hey is the build a bear employee supposed to force us to jump up and down or are we getting hazed
as a build-a-bear employee it is my honor to happily inform you that we get to make everyone do whatever the fuck we want during a heart ceremony. jump to get that heart beating. rub that heart to your knees so your furry friend always needs you. rub it to your toes so it’s totally awesome! shake it up so it’s got enough energy to hang out with you all day! close your eyes, make a wish, and give it a kiss you helpless motherfucker
Look, reanimation is a Process, okay
as a former BAB employee i remember making people do the weirdest shit depending on what bear they got.
got a dragon? flap your arms so he can fly.
got a unicorn? rub it on your forehead so her magic can work.
got a dinosaur? give a loud roar so he can roar.
literally tell kids to do whatever. YOU HAVE THE POWER FOR 2 MINUTES TO CONTROL A CHILD.

Spiders-men are incapable of avoiding puns it’s their biggest weakness
if u ever wonder how europeans can rely on trains so much to travel thru entire countries
this is why
(312km/h is about 194mph)
? Yea is this not the same everywhere??
doesnt seem to be
Also, most areas in America don’t even HAVE passenger rail anymore
The automotive industry purposely tried to kill off trains here in America
Public transit in general if we’re being honest.
As an europeean, what the fuck america?
if you ever see something weird about america chances are it’s because some powerful industry decided to kill something that would have worked towards the public good for profit

you…. you do realize they NEED these terms…… so that they can host images……. and let ppl see what you send……… right…………
Incapable of holding all knowledge, I did not! I was hopeful someone might be clear it up but I was also hopeful that it was possible to be polite about such things. Can’t win all the time, I guess!
perpetual - So they don’t have to set up some sort of content expiration scheme.
nonexclusive - so you can post it elsewhere and potentially sell it. If anyone asks for exclusive access be very very sure you are getting paid.
transferable - If they get bought by another company they don’t have to wipe all content.
royalty-free - They are not paying you to use their service to host your content
sublicensable - so they can have a 3rd party (like Amazon EC2) do the actual hosting, or provide another service with that content, like chat bots, giphy, etc.
worldwide license - They don’t have to geolock it
to use - Blanket right to use in their app
to host - Otherwise everything has to be externally linked

I hope that helps. Legalese can be a little bit daunting but if you know what to look for, like nonexclusive and “

You ever think about how Doc Ock knew that Kingpin’s plan would never work because people who stay outside their own dimension for too long end up dying, but she didn’t fucking bother to tell him.
Doc Ock fully knowing that Kingpin’s stupid plan would never work and end up just destroying the multiverse, but also thinking how funny the look in Kingpin’s face will be when his family dies in front of him again:
She’s here for a good time not a long time.
But more seriously remember the first time we saw her in person and she was explaining she needed more time to fine tune everything and Kingpin wouldnt give her more time? And when Miles, Peter B, and Gwen got away with the computer files and she went back to report Kingpin and was explaining and he totally didn’t care about it and walked away? Remember her face? That’s the face of a woman thinking, “alright, fuck you then.”
I think totally knew at that point (because she learned about Peter B’s cellular decay just minutes before!!! Since then, it was canonically clear for the viewer that she was aware + the risks for the spider gang) but she just didn’t give a shit anymore lmao.
She looked at Kingpin and just went “ok. die then bro”
Most behaviors that you see keepers demonstrate at the zoo or aquarium are natural behaviors that the animals do in the wild. When the animals do them, the keepers give them a treat and pair it with a gesture or a word, so that they associate them, and eventually the word or gesture is enough to elicit the behavior because the animal knows that there’s a reward. But here’s the thing: most of those behaviors are encouraged because they help veterinarians and keepers do health checks.
Yeah, its cute when they nose boop the stick, but also keepers need to check their vision and depth perception and mobility. Sea lions are so cute when they wave! But vets and keepers need to check under those flippers to make sure that they’re healthy and that they don’t have any restrictions on their motion or cuts on their skin. Why do they ask animals to jump? Again, to make sure that they’re healthy, and also because its fun and animals LOVE to move around and jump and have fun, its mentally stimulating.
This is the most important thing I will ever reblog and anyone who is still ignorant enough to think zoos are awful can fuck off my blog. Zoos are necessary. If you think otherwise please unfollow me because I don’t want you here.
This is super important for people to see. I have worked at a zoo and I can not tell you how many times I’ve had to defend the zoo for the good they do. People need to learn that zoos are actually helping save endangered species.
