‼️ATTENTION 17776 FANS‼️
Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer, or JUICE, will be launching in 10 DAYS on April 13th, 2023! he will travel for 7-8 years to orbit jupiter around 2031! good luck JUICE!
My friend worked on some of the code for JUICE, and that's how I got him into 17776!
Today he’s sent me juice box emojis and is deliberately jinxing the launch, much to the distress of his supervisor.
*Why does your name for Humanity translate to 'bottle people'," the human envoy asked. "We studied you pre-contact," said the Federation ambassador. "We saw your custom of putting a message in a bottle, hoping it will be found.' "I don't follow." "We found you thanks to Voyager."
If the last bit of news I ever get from Twitter is that Sailor Socialism is dating Louis CK, then you know what. yeah.
what a week huh?
happy one year anniversary to this clusterfuck of a week
Found this yesterday as I was walking between classes and thought I should show everybody
CRINGE POSTING ON MAIN
Wait sorry I forgot there was another flyer put up
Every time I think college can't get more wild, it does
Wait really that's what you guys did
Yeah! Turns out it was a part of the anti-cinema cinema club's way of trying to get new members. It was wild
i’m sorry did you say the anti-cinema cinema club
so they have a webbed site
scars in fiction: I got this trying to save my lover from an assassin- but tragically, I was too late. now I carry the mark of my failure with me always, and I can never forget~
scars in real life: so I was trying to open macaroni sauce with a paring knife
Tell me how you got your scars in the tags
i know all i post atp is shit i find on tiktok but what can i say i love discovering whole new genres of people.
also in the comments for the first one there was a flame war over whether alexander the great was greek or macedonian. good to know that classic eastern european ethnic conflicts have been transmitted to fascinating new mediums
experiencing things
hot take but i think pain should be discrete and purposeful (‘stop touching a hot stove’ and ‘stop bumping into furniture’) and then it should stop when it is no longer communicating useful and actionable information. you may disagree but i think chronic pain is bad.
there’s a hypothesis that long-duration pain, the kind of pain that lasts after the abrupt piercing of flesh, is not universal to the animal kingdom. almost all animals need to be able to react to immediate negative stimuli, and do, and so they have the kind of pain receptors necessary to tell them if something is attacking them or hurting them to flee. but for animals which are not sociable, which do not care for one another, and which therefore must nurse their wounds alone, to continue to feel intense pain after the immediate threat has passed would only weaken and distract them. longer-duration pain, extended suffering, is a consequence of our ability to express pain to others, adaptive only for animals who have mothers or siblings or other conspecifics who will come to their aid when danger threatens.
bruh. It's too early for these feelings.
bat at hornets nest maybe but "there is no ethical consumption under capitalism" refers to low income communities needing to choose between survival vs being eco friendly. not you continuing to watch the harry potter movies
There are few things that annoy me more than misinformation that’s technically on my side. Misinformation in support of a cause that I wholly believe in, but which is still bullshit and false.
Misinterpretations of religion, mythology and history that are ostensibly in support of women and women’s rights, but manage to demonstrate that OP doesn’t actually care enough about the topic to seek out reliable sources. Simplified distortions of third-hard rumours, covered in a vomit of pathos and sparkles and dished up as LGBT history. Valid criticism of the medical and pharmaceutical industries, immediately followed by absolute bullshit dangerous pseudoscience. Valid criticism of the diet industry, immediately followed by some more bullshit pseudoscience, but at least it’s body positive bullshit pseudoscience. Anti-capitalist screeds that betray a frightening ignorance of history, and other anti-capitalist screeds that betray a frightening ignorance of economics, topped off with anarchist screeds that betray that nobody in the thread has any idea how to run a farm. Sex-positivity posts by people who couldn’t find their ass with both hands. The embarrassment is going to kill me.
The legacies people leave behind in you.
My handwriting is the same style as the teacher’s who I had when I was nine. I’m now twenty one and he’s been dead eight years but my i’s still curve the same way as his.
I watched the last season of a TV show recently but I started it with my friend in high school. We haven’t spoken in four years.
I make lentil soup through the recipe my gran gave me.
I curl my hair the way my best friend showed me.
I learned to love books because my father loved them first.
How terrifying, how excruciatingly painful to acknowledge this. That I am a jigsaw puzzle of everyone I have briefly known and loved. I carry them on with me even if I don’t know it. How beautiful.
absolutely obsessed with these tags
I think the only universal experience amongst archaeologists is that we have all, at least once, enjoyed digging a really nice hole and then gotten very sad when there was nothing in it.
Look at this beautiful hole. Absolutely nothing in it though :'(
There, fixed it :)
TIME TO REST
A short comic about Tiffany Aching and Sam Vimes, two of Discworld’s hardest working characters. The recent conversation about crunch inspired me to make this piece.
They…they QUILTED a lenticular print.
WAIT THE FRAME IS QUILTED TOO?!?
Flora Joy wasn’t out to win the blue ribbon. She was there to destroy the competition.
STOP!! This is the mooncake line. If you see this on your dash you can have one quarter of this mooncake 🥮 with your favorite filling and a tiny cup of freshly brewed oolong tea that’s just cold enough to drink. Okay enjoy
