The Hulk ain’t never lied.
I can’t even express how much respect I have for Mark Ruffalo. The dude’s on the US terrorism watchlist for fuck’s sake.
Omg, it’s true.
Wow, standing up for the health and well-being of the people gets you branded a terrorist in this country.
mark ruffalo is also a big environmental activist. he came to our school my freshmen year to talk against fracking in our community, seeing as that is a HUGE topic for the binghamton area.
i have a lot of respect for mark ruffalo. he doesn’t do those ~gimmicky~ activist pushes. this is something he does when he’s not acting. this is something he would do even if he weren’t an actor.

Climate scientists around the world are alarmed by a triple climate-change-related crisis that hit the western U.S. and Canada in June and July.
The severity of what has happened in June and July has pushed past many of their carefully calculated projections. The fingerprints of capitalist-induced global warming are all over the crime scene.
The Diary of Merer is the name for papyrus logbooks written over 4,500 years ago that record the daily activities of stone transportation from the Tura limestone quarry to and from Giza during the 4th Dynasty. They are the oldest known papyri with text. The text was found in 2013 by a French mission under the direction of archaeologists Pierre Tallet of Paris-Sorbonne University and Gregory Marouard in a cave in Wadi al-Jarf on the Red Sea coast.
The text is written with hieroglyphs and hieratic on papyrus. The diary of Merer, a middle ranking official with the title inspector, is thought to date to the 26th year of the reign of Pharaoh Khufu and describes several months of work with the transportation of limestone from Tura to Giza. Though the diary does not specify where the stones were to be used or for what purpose, the diary may date to what is widely considered the very end of Khufu’s reign, Tallet believes they were most likely for cladding the outside of the Great Pyramid. About every ten days, two or three round trips were done, shipping perhaps 30 blocks of 2–3 tonnes each, amounting to 200 blocks per month. About forty boatmen worked under him. The papyrus is exhibited at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. [X]
“Has it ever occurred to you that plants can feel, know, even comprehend? The trees, this hazelnut bush… Not like us, who are rushing, fussing, uttering banalities. That’s because we don’t trust nature that is inside us. Always this suspiciousness, haste, and no time to stop and think.”
Mirror (1975) dir. Andrei Tarkovsky
