We are going to the Moon!

At 1:47 a.m. EST on Nov. 16, 2022, our Orion spacecraft launched aboard the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket from historic Launch Complex 39B at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on a path to the Moon, officially beginning the Artemis I mission.

This mission is the first integrated test of NASA’s deep space exploration systems: the Orion spacecraft, the SLS rocket, and Kennedy ground systems. This is the very first time this rocket and spacecraft have flown together, and it’s the first of many Artemis missions to the Moon. Artemis I is uncrewed, but it lays the groundwork for increasingly complex missions that will land humans on the lunar surface, including the first woman and the first person of color to do so.

With Artemis, we will build a long-term human presence on the Moon and prepare humanity for future exploration plans to Mars and beyond.

Me and a friend have been developing this conlang thing for use in co-op play, both for immersion and so we don’t need to constantly pause to type things. I call it slugsign :-)

I should note that neither of us know ANYTHING about language structure or conlanging, we just developed it naturally lol.

some grammar notes:

-’punctuation’ style signs (such as ‘question’, ’attention’, ’relax’) come before the rest of the sentence. this is for clarity of intent

-’relax’ can be used to initiate longer, more complex conversations

-signs are VERY position specific. the limitations of the medium make a lot of signs look similar, so using the right starting and ending positions are important.

-’region’ specifies which region you’re referring to by the direction of your arm waggling, and the regions adjecent to the one you’re currently in. For example if you were in industrial complex and wanted to refer to chimney canopy, you’d waggle upwards.

That’s so cool wtf?

Encounter

Saint: Can I help you?

Artificer: I wish you could mate

Parents were cleaning up and

THIS IS ANCIENT!! I was like, 11 when I made this! The dude in the middle has so much art of him from this time period, so I’m assuming they were the main character. I plan to redraw this asap, we shall see how far I have progressed in 12 years.

More images from the story that character is in. No I have no idea what is happening. God I wish I remembered what cringy story this was from.

Good.

The bee movie script never fails

There is nothing more iconic than Tintin when he's first kidnapped by Sakharine in the 2011 movie like-

He's an absolute nuisance to him and I love it-

Sakharine: *is getting livid that they can't find the scroll* Oh I am getting tired of your games, boy. The scroll, from The Unicorn! A piece of paper like this! *rips out his scroll*

Tintin (REMINDER THAT HE'S JUST COME ROUND AFTER BEING CHLOROPHOMED AND IS TIED UP IN A CAGE HE KNOWS NO FEAR-): you mean the poem?

Sakharine: yes.

Tintin: the poem written in Old English?

Sakharine, trying to restrain himself: y e s

Tintin: it was inside a cylinder

Sakharine: y e s !

Tintin: concealed in the mast

Sakharine, a hair's breadth from strangling him: Y E S !

Tintin: *just stared up at Sakharine with the most innocent, round, baby blue eyes you will ever see*

Tintin: I don't have it.

AHHHHH-

I laughed my ass off when I first saw this scene in theaters. I strive to be as much of a menace as Tintin

Dinosaur Sanctuary

A neat manga about dinosaurs and dinokeepers.

This is my actual dream. Side note, if I ever decided to write a book it would be like James Herriot but with dinosaurs.
