That’s Louis Rossman, a repair technician and YouTuber, who went viral recently for railing against Apple. Apple purposely charges a lot for repairs and you either have to pay up or buy a new device. That’s because Apple withholds necessary tools and information from outside repair shops. And to think, we were just so close to change.

Reblog if you:

  • Have an iPhone and are in need of repairs
  • Have a friend with that problem
  • Hate Apple and are more than happy to spite them in some way

No one will know which is it

Reblogging this from my iPhone, ironically.

BREAKING: The FCC just voted to repeal net neutrality, meaning we’re all screwed. TV news shows were essentially silent about this for the three weeks leading up to the vote.

When I saw this post on my dash, it kept disappearing every time the site finished loading. It had nothing to do with my blacklist extension, all evidence of this post on my dash vanished. I had to go to the blog of the person I’m reblogging it from DIRECTLY.

If you can see this post at all, even if it’s for a split second, try and like it and reblog it! Don’t let this post be hidden!

THE RULES DON’T GO INTO EFFECT UNTIL THE 23RD! YOU STILL HAVE TIME TO CONTACT CONGRESS AND TELL THEM TO S T O P the FUCKING FCC.

THIS IS GOING AROUND AGAIN.

IT DISAPPEARS BECAUSE PEOPLE LOOK INTO THE NOTES AND SEE THAT IT’S AN OLD POST AND DELETE IT.

DO NOT REBLOG THIS WITHOUT CORRECTED INFORMATION, IT MAKES PEOPLE HOPELESS BECAUSE THEY THINK IT’S OVER. IT IS NOT OVER.

BOOST

!!!!!!!!

This is such an important moment and it shouldn’t be glanced over.  This is the first time someone in the entire series has said that Raven is beautiful.  Look at her reaction to those words in the fourth panel.  For a moment she looks absolutely vulnerable.  In her experience people have always fawned over and adored Starfire for her beauty.  But for once someone acknowledges her and says that she’s beautiful.  As much as Raven says physical beauty doesn’t matter this shows that a part of her does believe it’s important.

This is why Malchior was able to manipulate her so easily.  He knew exactly what she wanted to hear.  She wanted to feel like someone understood her, that she wasn’t creepy, and that she was beautiful.  And when he made her feel special she gave him everything he asked for without question.  And in the end she paid dearly.

This episode should be seen by all teenage girls.  This is the stuff boys will tell you in order to get what they want.  And if someone as smart as Raven can get taken advantage of then obviously you’re just as at risk.  Have confidence in yourself no matter how you look or what you like and when a guy tries to trick you with cheap words you’ll know better.

But don’t forget, not all boys are like Malchior.  Some of them are like Beast Boy; the guy who no matter what you do and how bad you screw up he’ll still be there and tell you that you matter.  He won’t ask for anything more than some of your time, some of your attention.  He just wants to see you smile without any other ulterior motives.  And he’ll let you know that even when you feel completely alone in the world you’re not.  You’re only as alone as you choose to be.

Raven is such an important and deep character and this is why I don’t like Teen Titans Go
