I don’t think it is necessarily bad grammer, maybe it is obsolete? Keep in mind I am not a native speaker.
“Risen” in this case is not a verb but acts more like an adjective, “the one who has risen”. I always interpret sentences like this as “He is the one who has risen.”
They’re quoting the KJV of the Bible, it’s incorrect in modern language, but I found this:
“It’s an archaic use of English which conjugates verbs of motion with be in present perfect, in much the same way as French still does. The statement is the equivalent of “Christ has risen” and is stating a present-perfect fact.”
Ranks among the best of cheap highs, topped only by very cold or very hot showers, sleep or recreation, experiencing a beautiful piece of art or wonder of nature, eating spicy or sour things, sneezing or getting rocks off, huffing spraypaint or guerilla glue, and engaging in meditation or hypnosis. Get high on life is what i always say when I’m drunk or out of weed. My body is my temple.
My guess is, since they eat coffee cherries, some farmer had his harvest ruined and washed the seeds out from the shit in desperation, just to get told it’s the best coffee somebody has ever had.
You can squeeze the water out of elephant crap and drink it. Humans figured out fermentation a long time ago. This isn’t too much of a stretch given humans also know that animal poop is usable in other ways agriculturally.
the story I heard (from an Indonesian dude) was the colonial plantations didn’t allow locals to drink coffee. They noticed the civits only ate the ripest coffee berries… bla bla bla, shit coffee was the only choice and it was really good?
Yes, and he originally was gonna make it obvious but he had to fight tooth and nail with Disney to even get the scene at the end where they look longingly into each other’s face while talking about love (iirc) and then shoot a cannon together (which is meant to represent that they are indeed a “canon” couple).
I need to rewatch it soon. One of the best animated series of the modern times, right next to Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, Dead End, Close Enough, Amphibia, BoJack, Infinity Train, Kipo, Vox Machina, Smiling Friends and YOLO.
What a time to be alive… When I was a kiddo, the best stuff came from Japan, and now the Americans are really nailing it.
All I remember from this movie is the fanboys bitching about Disney only doing remakes and not releasing anything original, then they finally release something original and it gets review bombed for having a gay character
I didn’t care the character was gay. It just felt like it was heavy handed to point out he was gay. His relationship, and by extension his sexuality, had no impact on the story. Why even bring it up?
His sexuality and his relationship felt like it was shoe horned into the script so Disney could say they had a gay character.
Funfact to tell the haters(since I assume few if any are here): The gays are not doing this to Disney. Disney is doing this to the gays, they make 17 first openly this or that kind of queerness because they want the gay peoples money.
Yeah, and maybe its just me, but I had never though before this meme to phrase my thoughts about it the way I did, and I like the way it explains where the ‘action’ is coming from very plainly, since I hear opponents of representation claim that it works in reverse and somehow the gays are forcing media conglomerates to bend to their will, instead of the media conglomerates putting out whatever extracts the most cash. Like I don’t expect the right leaners I know to understand and agree with this comment I’m typing, but I really feel like I could get somewhere if I phrased it like in the one you replied to. Of course not everyone can be moved in the first place, but its the idea I get from my experiences with them.
They will then counter this with "Well if they just shut up and minded their own business instead of telling everybody all about how much cock they suck, it wouldn't matter", completely missing the point that these folks have been minding their own business for centuries and regularly getting murdered for it, and also completely missing the extremely obvious parallels to Jim Crow and the civil rights movement (or maybe not, maybe that's why they hate it so much). It is their opinion that they shouldn't have to know you're gay, and that you should have to live in fear of revealing that fact for your entire lifetime. And that's just the crowd that doesn't believe that homosexuality is a direct affront to God and should be stamped out as a moral imperative.
I've had this conversation before a few times, it always comes back around to the same points. Conservatives become extremely unconformable with the knowledge that The Gays(R) exist and typically wield misunderstood Bible quotation in defense of that. Those who don't, will resort to the argument that they shouldn't have to have it "thrust into their faces", as though the knowledge that gay folks exist is some great personal burden to them. They will happily tell people to "mind their own business" and "keep it to yourself" so long as their lungs have air with which to speak, but when told themselves to mind their own damn business, suddenly this is unacceptable.
