I think the only person I've met in real life with 100% career satisfaction was this gal I knew who was a presenter at a children's science museum and delivered every line like she was running a WWE match. Every time you passed the room where she was giving a presentation, you'd hear something like "WHO'S READY FOR CEPHALOPODS?!?" and the kids would go absolutely nuts cheering.

if i had a nickel for every time one of freddie wong's characters showed up to a fighting ring, put someone he knew into the fight and then immediately tried to bet on them winning the fight, i'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice. at least this time it wasn't literally his child

My best advice for people new to adulthood: keep emergency food around.

I don't mean like those prepper type people. I mean keep a granola bar in your purse or backpack. If you have a car, keep a jar of peanuts in there.

This is good for if you miss your bus, or forget your wallet somewhere, or get stuck in traffic. You never know when you are going to feel shaky, and it's better to have something quick and easy on hand, in case you need it.

Having emergency food around is your best friend. Trust me.

(It's an especially good idea if you have any kind of food restriction, whether it's merely being vegetarian or something more complex. You'll be glad of your muesli bar or whatever when you find yourself somewhere without safe food.)

I love the House MD fandom because it's one of those rare ones where you can't really tell them apart from haters of the show.

"House got shot by his patient? Tbh he deserved that" could easily be said by both a lover and a hater of this show and that's special

when I read good omens I fully interpreted ineffable husbands as an asexual couple because like.... they're supernatural beings that don't really jibe with human sex

but in the show they have so much sexual tension and I think that's because Michael Sheen always looks like he's ready to jump David Tennent's bones at any given moment and he's so real for that

today i learned that, when Jared Leto sent Margot Robbie a live rat as a part of his rude, bullshit “method acting” fo Suicide Squad, she was scared but still refused to abandon or harm the rat.

she overcame her initial fear in order to buy him a proper set up and take care of him until she found the rat a reliable owner, who… ended up being Guillermo del Toro for some reason?

so yeah that’s what happened with the Suicide Squad rat

I mean, I’D trust Guillermo del Toro with a rat.

what is your most controversial video game hot take? 🎮🎮🎮

The pursuit for photorealism in games is a fruitless endeavor that only results in bloated file sizes that take too much space

mario is a woman and just really butch

I know SEVERAL afab nonbinary people who, as soon as they came out as nonbinary - immediately began dressing in ridiculous hyper-femme outfits they never would have worn before.  A lot of people see this and say shit like “Theyfab” or say they are only nonbinary for attention.  After all, look how femme they are.

But to me, this makes perfect sense.  When you are forced into the category of “woman” against your will, femininity is a chore.  It’s a job that you have.  As soon as you say no, I’m not a woman, suddenly femininity isn’t your job anymore.  It’s not a requirement.  It’s just a fun hobby you can get into.  Or a little treat sometimes.

Anonymous asked:

i think its verrry weird how you started posting nsfw posts and reblogging porn the minute you turned 18 idk

I hate to be the one to tell you this but I have been actively extremely horny since I hit puberty when I was like twelve years old. Human development does not work like "absolutely zero impure thoughts until you reach the designated legal sex age, where you have until 25 to finally learn what a boob is, and then 25+ you're allowed to have consensual sex 😊 because 19-25-year-olds are basically minors". I also can tell that the underlying idea in this ask is that I, and anyone who begins posting nsfw when they turn 18, was somehow "groomed" into it, when the fact of the matter is that I have been very naturally gay horny for years and waited until I was 18 to explicitly post about it because THAT'S how you keep yourself safe. You don't pretend to be a delicate sexless angel with the mind of a five-year-old who's never heard what sex is just because you're seventeen. I am a human being with sexual thoughts and I'm now a legal adult who is allowed to post about them. Realize that there is a difference between external adults "waiting until she's 18" and someone waiting until they themselves are 18 so they can go out and buy porn, which they've wanted to buy for years.

This is an extremely reductive, reactionary, infantilizing, and conservative way to speak to me. Don't even pretend you have progressive sexual politics if you think like this. Fuck yourself I'm so serious. No one ever speak to me this way again

[ID: Discord screenshot from me, Rotting Mistake, saying "From age 0-17 you're an innocent angel who has never had an impure thought in your life, from 18-25 you're an adult minor who also can't have sex, and then at 25 your brain has fully developed (very real science) and you have about five years to have sex because anyone 30+ is a decrepit ancient hag".

This is breaching containment already please realize in this post that "porn" meas Team Fortress 2 hentai

sometimes people try to tell me that scientists are paragons of rationality and I have to break it to them that I have yet to work in a lab that didn’t have at least one weird secret shrine in it

new guy: why is all of the equipment in this room covered in toys?

me: dONn’t touch those

new guy:

me: they need the toys to function. if they don’t all have toys they get jealous.

new guy:

new guy:

me: when something breaks just take the wizard and wave it around for a while. they seem to like that.

Science is rational, scientists are human.

In Taiwan we have a special brand of snacks named 乖乖 (literally means “well behaved” but in a casual way like when one’s compliment a child or a pet of being good) that has green package.

It has become the lucky charm in the IT industry because engineers believe it will make machine acting good (like the name of the snack) and stay in green light (like the color of the snack’s package) when a 乖乖 is put on top of a server.

It is the only food allowed in a server room and the biggest semicondoctor company in Taiwan (which is also the biggest worldwide) even commissioned the snack factory to make a customized version with blessing on the package.

This is how a server room is blessed by 乖乖. You put at least one on top of each server. It’s important that the engineers change them before the expire date because legend says the snack looses it’s power after expire date.

You’ll hear engineers swearing up and down that their server room crushed down the one time they forgot to change the snack.  Or some newbie ate the forbidden snack put on top of their server and caused a disastrous crush down.

The 乖乖 religion later spread to all people who want their machine to act nice. In the lab we put 乖乖 on ultra-low freezer (you really don’t want it to drop dead along with your 2 years’ worth of sample/data), mass spectrometer etc.

When Taiwan’s about to launch the first self made satellite in 2017, the develop team even put 乖乖 around the satellite model to prey for a successful launch (it did). This shit is real.

Crowley is an atheist. Let me elaborate: he does not believe in God. (Her being very real does not change this fact.)

also, and this is a funnier thought: Crowley would absolutely say this, very smugly, when stopped on the street by some religious missionary, and Aziraphale by his side would pretend to be scandalized and suddenly all three of them would heatedly be discussing Religion™ and leaving with a crisis of faith (the missionary would convert to another religion the next day, something polytheistic, can't do this anymore)

actually I'm not done. Crowley would absolutely get into verbal street fights with fanatics on the regular and on purpose, I'll fight you on this (ha) and he would debate them into the GROUND and straight to hell. he would have so much fun doing it, too. it's a double win in his book: people losing faith, hell gaining some precious souls, AND he gets to watch some jerk's world crumble to dust. one year he got a commendation because he got a little too into it: the year when Crowley went around knocking on Jehovah's witnesses' doors

Aziraphale, on the other hand, has a much more physical approach to fanaticism. His reasoning--false prophets, false preachings, the spreading of hateful rhetoric etc etc-- seems very logical to him (though it might go against the logic of GO Heaven: they don't care if the people are a little crazy or murderous, faith is faith to them). So when Aziraphale walks by people screaming about hell and judgement, they suddenly slip off their soapboxes, or a passing car drenches them in muddy water, or someone is suddenly seized with the violent urge to punch them in the face (no need to get his own hands dirty, is there. they are clean and manicured and free of all sin)
