Which is sadder: dying in a sewer or being 40

Next time I’m at this one store I’m snapping a pic of myself next to the one lonely brand of matzoh they sell (tucked away next to the gluten free vegan Sad Cookies), that isn’t even kosher for passover

monks must have had crazy drama. all horny and bald and unwashed all together. pretty little friars

don't care + didn't ask + you will never break the chain

god he's so fucking pathetic. what a god damn loser. (insane with lust)

No guys, what is the best part here is the janitor, who doesn't have money for tutors and coaches, has managed to bring up five children whose intellect and hard work made them qualify for the Boston College's free tuition program.

How many wealthy parents can boast of this?

'Mid' autumn festival? I find it quite based actually.

based on what?

Its so crazy how the cultural conception of OCD has absolutely nothing to do with what OCD actually is literally at all

i love how garnet and pearl are just continuing to use the name of their infamous guerilla military organization while their current jobs are fighting lv4 rpg monsters and giving each other basket weaving seminars. and steven has no context for this and just thinks of "The Crystal Gems" as basically the name for his mom's side of the family. so he walks up to lapis and says "you should hang out with me and my treehouse friends, the Viet Cong!"

moment of silence for the Spirit Halloween employee who’s going to have to tell all the sorority girls they’re sold out of sexy angels, sexy vampires, and sexy pirates this year

hey you guys my friend just told me i have a stain on my shirt (embarrassing) and hes put his finger on the shirt to indicate where it is. Im gonna look down so i can asses the stain situation

how could he

im really losing my shit thinking about vulcan childrens music and television. who could forget such hits as “3 is an appropriate number” and “walking in the street could lead to maiming or death”

the vulcan equivalent of the wiggles is just 3 normally dressed individuals reciting multiplication tables in unison

Speaking as someone with very little knowledge of Star Trek - I’ve seen like three episodes from random versions and I read Spock’s World - I violently disagree with this.

Even before I had such minimal knowledge as I do now, I thought that “vulcan” was a very appropriate word for them. It’s not that they don’t have emotions, if anything they have more than humans, they just run hard and deep, like volcanoes. You don’t want that thing to erupt.

So I imagine vulcan children’s TV is much like Sesame Street. Here is a muppet with anger issues! He spilled his milk and it made him ANGRY!!! Here comes someone dressed in completely normal clothes to say yes, that was indeed unfortunate, but anger is an irrational response to such a thing and not in keeping with the teachings of Surak; let us now explore different forms of meditation as emotional control, one of which includes three normally dressed individuals reciting multiplication tables in unison.

Eclipse in Chile

It’s wilder than that. You feel the temperature drop around you. Animals start to freak out cause they think night has fallen. Even more crazy is shadow snakes. Where you see the shadows around you start to shimmer. Kind of like the shadows of atmospheric disturbances you see during really hot days or near a fire.

You can learn more about this in SmarterEveryDay’s video

And here’s a video that captures the shadow snakes

Also, the overall tone of the light is wrong and it’s almost impossible to articulate why.

It’s not dark per se, but the light doesn’t just seem dimmed, it seems like it’s in a different spectrum.

It feels like when a movie puts a filter over the film to indicate that something very very bad is happening, like an eldritch horror has arrived offscreen, and the bad light is slowly sucking your soul out of your body, only it’s real life, and the bad light permeates everywhere.

Imagine being a caveman and looking up one day to see the sky has gone dark and what looks to be God’s eye is starting directly at you

took this on my porch during the partial solar eclipse in 2017. those crescent-shaped shadows are because that’s just what the sun was doing. they were everywhere. it was wild

Also if you’re even slightly sensitive to barometric pressure you can physically feel it drop like a ROCK the minute the sun fades. It’s one of the spookiest feelings I’ve ever had.

Remember everyone that there is going to be a solar eclipse NEXT YEAR (2024) on the 8th of April, which will hit large portions of the eastern US, so now is as good a time as any to see if its within reach of you, and make travel arrangements if so
