Honestly, Rick Rolling is the best practical joke ever. Like, there’s nothing offensive or mean  spirited about it. It’s just like “Oops you thought there would be something else here but it’s ‘Never Gonna Give You Up’.” which isn’t even a bad song. It’s fairly enjoyable to listen to. There’s no jumpscares, no screaming, no ill will. Just Rick Astley telling you he’s never going to give you up. I think that’s great. “You fell into my trap! Here, listen to this completely benign song that will have no negative effect on you.” 

I wish this were true. There’s a really good article about the problems inherent with rickrolling here.

All witches are selfish, the Queen had said. But Tiffany’s Third Thoughts said: Then turn selfishness into a weapon! Make all things yours! Make other lives and dreams and hopes yours! Protect them! Save them! Bring them into the sheepfold! Walk the gale for them! Keep away the wolf! My dreams! My brother! My family! My land! My world! How dare you try to take these things, because they are mine!

― Terry Pratchett,

The Wee Free Men

This quote right here, which I read years before I read one of his novels literally and I say this with no poetic liberty, saved my life. I repeat it to myself constantly to this day.

Game of Thrones 5×07 recap

Today there was another attempted rape, at which point my boyfriend announced “If there’s another
rape scene, I’m not going to be able to watch this show anymore” and
he’s only a casual viewer. So I wonder if the writers are actually
taking note of any of this, and considering that it might be a good idea
to significantly reduce the amount of violence against women. Because
it would. It would be a very good idea.

It’s a not very positive GoT recap!
