When cool celebs outsmart interviewers with dumb questions. Because actually, some people really do want to live in a world without homophobia. And some even want to act in it.

Get on that movie, lovely.

Was there really a time when I hated you, Zac?

I take it all back.

ALL.

The mustache wasn’t a good life decision.

Oh man, her face though.  She totally expects to get him with these questions and he’s just like LOL NOPE I’M GONNA BE A GOOD HUMAN BEING INSTEAD.

I FORGIVE YOU FOR HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL.

respect level for zac efron just went WOOOOOSH

“We all have great bodies, so why not?”

I like how he’s really truly genuine about it too.

Just from the way he’s moving, you can tell he’s relaxed and genuine about it.

cosmicyoruba: sunisup: I’m reading up on the Memoirs of a Geisha controversy, since I’d neither seen the movie nor read the book, and the more I read about it, the more pissed off I get.  Basically it went down like this: Japanese woman tells white American man about her past life as a geisha.  White American man then writes a novel that sells itself as an accurate memoir of Japanese woman’s life, but instead falsifies a number of her life events, misrepresents her trade, and exoticises her culture.  He also names her as a source even though she specifically asked him to keep her anonymous.  Japanese woman gets death threats.  White American man becomes bestselling author. Then Japanese woman gets fed up and writes her own memoir to set the record straight.  Meanwhile, white American man’s book gets adapted into a film that grosses $162 million and wins three Oscars. This is why I can’t stand Memoirs of a Geisha and will side-eye anyone who claims that book as a favourite.

Sea Potato

(Echinocardium cordatum)

is a species of heart urchin found in shallow tidal regions around the world. The name sea potato probably comes from the animals brown coloration and short spines making it look sort of similar to a potato(they look more like garlic to me). They spend most of their lives in burrows dug 10-15 cm under the sand, these burrows have channels for respiration  and sanitation as well. the urchin waits and collects any edible material that rests on top of the burrow. Other animals like amphipods and bivalves are known to share burrows with the sea potato as well.
