you know there are people in this world who make a career out of being really really good captain jack sparrow impersonators so idk if they really want to keep making more pirates movies it would be really fucking easy to replace johnny depp lol…

I have had this exact thought multiple times, there are -women- I’ve met who could play him and you’d barely notice

Johnny Depp impersonators are like, their own class, like Elvis impersonators

you could replace Depp in all movies that producers wanted his character type in ever and no one would be the wiser

Pirates of the Carribean

but every scene is an entirely different depp impersonator

no one notices until the credits roll and there are like 1700 names for “Captain Jack Sparrow”

this is the dream

Ten years ago I was at Disney World and the face actor for Jack was spot-the-entire-fuck-on. A little kid in a Jack Sparrow costume walked up to him and he stared a moment and said “Well… you look familiar!” with just perfect comic timing, then leaned down and asked the kid “er, where’s your mum?” When she was pointed out, he stood up, squinted suspiciously at her for a moment, then said “Oh, good, you don’t look familiar.”

He was just so good, we stood there and watched him for like ten minutes. Hire that dude. Shoot Johnny Depp into the sun.

We ran into a Jack Sparrow impersonator at Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland in Frankenmuth, MI one year. We just happened to be in town the same day as a pirate festival (so, that’s a thing). My son was four at the time and he freaked out and ran up to this guy and the dude, with perfect voice and mannerisms, asked my son to help him pick out a Christmas ornament for the Black Pearl. It was the most amazing thing ever. I wish cameras on phones had been a thing, because it was the cutest shit I’ve ever seen. We bought my son an ornament to match the one he picked out for “Captain Jack” and every year when we put it on the tree we talk about that.

So, yeah. The impersonators can even take over the role in the “making kids smile” department. The franchise doesn’t need Johnny Depp.

Travel warning: four days until Trump’s shut-down costs TSA screeners their first paycheck

mostlysignssomeportents

In four days, federal employees will suffer their first missed paycheck since Trump’s border wall shutdown; it’s hard to say who will be worst hit: the employees who are furloughed will never see that money (but who may have been able to pick up some other work while they were off the job to cover their bills); or the “essential” federal employees who’ve had to show up for work every day without pay, but who will, someday, get a paycheck to cover their forced labor.

In the latter group are 51,739 TSA “officers” (TSA screeners aren’t cops, but they’ve adopted the “officer” honorific in a bid to secure flyers’ obedience while they confiscate their apple-pie filling). Since the shut-down began, TSA officials have insisted that screeners were not staging “sick outs” (for example, to avoid daycare expenses by staying home with their kids) and that the extra waiting time that passengers were suffering through (53 minutes in Laguardia!) was the result of heavier than usual travel.

But after Friday, TSA screeners will have to decide whether they want to stay on the job without pay, and it’s a sure bet that lots of them will stay home, and there’s not much the TSA can do about it. A TSA walkout would cripple the nation’s businesses and strike directly at higher-income Americans (that is, the people who supported Trump as he used racist wall promises to secure the votes needed for a two-trillion-dollar tax giveaway to the wealthy).

What happens next is anyone’s guess. Trump’s probably right that giving in on the wall will lose him any chance of re-election as discouraged racists stay home from the polls (as they had done historically, until Trump gave them something to vote for), and deliver victory to Democrats who have a small but meaningful chance of taxing the shit out of looters and oligarchs. But the patience of looters and oligarchs – with the exception of a few long-term thinkers like Charles Koch – is in notoriously short supply. If Trump loses the racists, he won’t be able to help the billionaires. But if he loses the billionaires, he won’t be able to afford to court the racists.

TSA employees cannot continue to work without pay. Nobody can. That’s not politics, that’s simple fact. Even the most die-hard TSA enforcer has to eat and pay their bills.

Which means at some point in the near future the TSA will be unable to perform airport screenings and will declare a shutdown. After that, things can only go two ways:

1. Airports simply stop TSA screenings and waive passengers onto flights as if it was pre-9/11 America.

2. Airports are totally shut down, citing security concerns.

#1 would demonstrate how airport screenings are security theater and utterly worthless, designed to keep us afraid. Airports operated perfectly for 50 years without forcing passengers to take off their shoes or surrender pocket knives & shampoo. Bypassing the scary body scanners & invasive blue gloves because we can’t pay the TSA would remind Americans this is all bullshit.

#2 would be an economic disaster. Average citizens would riot. Americans who commute via air would be forced into unemployment, and the airline industry itself would teeter on the edge of ruin. The brief airport shutdown of 2001 literally drove some regional airlines out of business. The ripple effect would impact hundreds of service industries including catering, hotels, car rental companies… the economic impact would be apocalyptic.

So which will it be?

Prepare for increasing weirdness if this shutdown isn’t resolved very soon.

In the meantime, be kind to your screeners. Mine was joking around with me today about confiscating my ramen noodles bc she’s going to need them. I sensed she wasn’t entirely joking.

People are living paycheck to paycheck and they need our empathy right now.

So I just had a thought

What if supernatural creatures don’t exist anymore? What if they did once, but through the years, they slowly mixed in with humans?

You can see the blood of fairies in the way a ballet dancer hovers in mid air before he or she hits the ground. You can see it in the way that middle school girl never forgets when someone makes her a promise. You can see it in how that one little boy in the kindergarten class seems more comfortable in the forest on that field trip than the others.

You can see the blood of dryads in hikers who never trip over roots. You can see it in that suburban grandmother never lets any of her garden die. You can see it in that one kid who climbs a tree faster than his friends, barely looking at the branches as he goes.

You can see the blood of naiads in the way a professional swimmer seems to command the water to help them. You can see it in how a cross country runner needs a water break more often than his teammates. You can see it in the way that one girl in your class always has a water bottle on her desk.

You can see the blood of mermaids in a surfer who can be tossed around underwater for a long time without drowning. You can see it in a teenage boy who doesn’t have to pretend to be unbothered by the pressure when he races his friends to the bottom of a swimming pool. You can see it in the little girl who wades into every stream she sees on a hike without quite knowing why.

You can see the blood of sirens in people who never have a problem with getting people to date them. You can see it in that soprano who can hit notes most of her fellows can only dream of. You can see it in the camp counselor who all the straight girls have a crush on, who can play guitar and sing better than any of the others.

You can see the blood of shapeshifters in the way an actor adjusts their personality to become their character with scary accuracy. You can see it in the subconscious, barely noticeable changes a tween girl’s eyes make to match her outfit better. You can see it in the way you always lose that one friend in a crowd if you’re not careful, because he’s just too good at blending in.

People who carry the blood of werewolves don’t change with the full moon anymore, but you can still see it in the way your best friend always knows something is wrong, though even they don’t know they’re smelling the changes in your body chemistry. You can see it in the way that one guy always seems to eat more than the reasonable amount of red meat at an all-you-can-eat buffet. You can see it in the way that one werido never has a problem when the teacher turns off the lights before a PowerPoint presentation because her eyes adjust quicker and better than yours.

The blood of supernatural creatures may have mostly faded away. But if you look closely, you can still see it.
