How the media depicts the Apollo 11 mission:

Actual quotes from the Apollo 11 mission:

also according to michael collins when the three of them were discussing what neil armstrong should say when he first stepped on the moon, collins suggested armstrong say “Oh, my God, what is that thing?”  and then scream and cut out his mic.

Everyone forgets Michael Collins and it’s fucking tragic.

ISABELLE AND DOOM.... MAYOR? (Artist: thegreyzen) on Twitter

I love how it's canon that the makers of doom and animal crossing love the idea of Isabel and doom guy being friends XD.

From Book 2, Chapter VII: The Mirror of Galadriel in The Fellowship of the Ring

“Often [Legolas] took Gimli with him when he went abroad in [Lothlórien], and the others wondered at this change.”

begging people to understand that there's a difference between getting into handicrafts as a hobby and being forced to engage in constant busywork for the sake of persistence. yes I'm sure you enjoy weaving. im not sure you'd enjoy it if it was all you did every day to keep a family of fourteen clothed while they work fields. and I'm sure they'd enjoy gardening in their free time too, but after a few years of ploughing stones under the sun, they'd probably also wish they could just buy stuff from a store. cottagecore fantasies aren't reality, and just because peasants had a better class position than you do doesn't mean their lives were better than yours are now.

Thank you for the condolences on homeschooling, nobody seems to understand how badly it sucked, whenever homeschooling comes up, it's someone promoting it.

I never minded it when we were travelling, because getting to travel as a kid was actually a really great experience, and at the time, I loved being able to focus on paleoanthropology and palaeontology.

But it also completely kept me out of lab science until I was in college (I didn't take Chem 1 till I was a senior), which was a whole mess and I was severely behind in every subject but hard sciences and Logic math, which for some inexplicable reason the homeschooling programme let me take instead of algebra, and had the grammar of 7-year-old, and I missed out on a lot of social skill development that only be learned surrounded by your peers.

Homeschooling for any reason but longterm travel sucks.

:( oof to all of this. Thank you for sharing. Sometimes I wonder about homeschooling my future kids because I'm scared about how bad the educational system will be by that hypothetical point, and then I read stuff like this and I remember that homeschooling is a Very Bad Idea.

but I'm proud of you for getting to where you are today!!!

I will slip through the space between your cells and enter your body and I won't be identified as a threat because I'm making out with your white blood cells (I call them babygirl) then when you least expect it I crawl into your brain and then I freak it
